Genshin Impact: Reject Camera, Replace Traveler

Chapter 24: The Fatui are behind the scenes spreading rumors

Hearing this, the slightly tipsy Gu Chen opened his eyes, and Paimeng couldn't help but prick up his ears.

Is there anyone who wants to harm Lei Ze?

The two looked at each other, remained calm, and continued to listen to the conversation at the next table.

There were only two people at the next table.

Both of them were drinking, one was spreading rumors, and the other was listening hesitantly.

The listener still has his own judgment:

"This... didn't the Knights make an announcement to the public?

They said the relevant personnel have been purified and treated by the Holy Light Knights, and that they will no longer be in any danger after purification, so everyone can rest assured.

The person who spread the rumor hated him for not fighting:

"Oh! Do you believe everything the Knights say?

The Knights tell you to eat shit, will you eat it?

Brothers, you must have the ability to think independently!

That's the abyss. How terrible are the disasters in the abyss? Can it be purified just by saying so? "

"Uh... you mean..."

The guy who spread the rumor was mysterious and confident:

"I believe the Knights must have been protecting the wolf boy who was eroded by the abyss!"

The person opposite looked embarrassed:

"The person you're referring to who's sheltering the wolf boy... you're talking about Miss Lisa, right?"

"Who else but her!"

The guy who spread rumors almost slammed the table:

"What exactly is the Knights' intention in placing such a dangerous wolf boy in Mondstadt?

They don't care about our safety at all!

I decided to go to the Knights with other companions to petition them, asking them, especially Lisa, to hand over the wolf boy!"

Gu Chen, who was sitting here, asked quietly:

“What will happen after I hand it over?”

This man subconsciously waved his fist fiercely:

“Of course, we’re going to judge this wolf boy in public!

We will also tie this wolf boy to the square with the statue of the wind god and burn him to death in public!"

Gu Chen had already stood up and appeared behind this person calmly:

"Who are you?"

"Of course we are..."

The rumormonger was suddenly startled and stood up and turned his head!

However, Gu Chen was faster. He grabbed the man's neck first, lifted him up, and pressed him against the wall with a bang!

The rumormonger had difficulty breathing and struggled hard but couldn't move.

He looked at Gu Chen, who had a cold face, and felt extremely frightened:

"You...who are you!?"

"I?"

Gu Chen laughed sarcastically:

“I am the Holy Light Knight you just mentioned.

By the way, I can purify the abyss, and I have already purified all the abyss aura in the Wolf Territory.

As for the wolf boy Lei Ze you mentioned, I purified him a long time ago. He is no different from a normal person! "

After giving the warning, Gu Chen looked at the person drinking with him on the other side:

"You didn't believe his lies, did you?"

The man was a little frightened and quickly shook his head to express his opinion:

"I'm not drunk yet, I won't believe his nonsense.

No, even if I was drunk, I wouldn't believe his nonsense!"

Nodding, Gu Chen looked at the entire Cat Tail Tavern again.

Because of the rumor just now, not only he heard it, but basically everyone who was drinking here heard it.

Facing everyone, Gu Chen asked with a smile:

"You guys won't believe his lies, will you?"

Everyone shuddered suddenly and shook their heads in disbelief.

Gu Chen was very satisfied and looked at Margaret and Diona who were worried at the counter.

This time, his smile was much friendlier:

“Little Diona, don’t get me wrong, I’m not drunk now.

Miss Margaret, I'm sorry to have come across someone spreading rumors and causing trouble. I have to interrogate him on the spot and disturb your business."

Margaret smiled broadly:

"It's okay, feel free to ask me any questions. I also hate people who stir up trouble out of nothing~~~

I especially hate it when people like this come to my tavern."

Gu Chen nodded:

"That's good."

As soon as he finished speaking, he exerted force with his hands and suddenly pinched the throat of the rumormonger.

His eyes bulged out, he was struggling in pain, and it was difficult for him to speak:

"Hoo...I can't breathe! Let...let me go!"

Gu Chen's tone was cold and ruthless:

“You can let go.

"First, tell me why you are spreading rumors here? What is your purpose? Who instructed you to spread rumors?"

This guy still didn't give up, and he managed to speak in a hoarse voice:

"I...I'm not spreading rumors! I...I'm just gossiping!"

Gu Chen exerted more force with his hands.

The rumormonger's pain deepened, his eyes almost popping out of his head.

“You…you are a knight…of the Knight Order!

You... you can't... kill... kill the people of Mond!"

Maintaining a creepy smile, Gu Chen said in a very cold tone:

"You seem to have misunderstood something.

I am indeed a newly minted Holy Light Knight, but I don't have to be one forever.

I'm not from Mond, not even from this world.

At worst, I can kill you and then go to other countries. What should I be afraid of?

What's more, even if I kill you, the Knights may not do anything to me. After all, I have done a favor to the entire Mondstadt.

Do you want to try and see if I dare to kill you? Can I kill you?"

The rumormonger was terrified and almost peed himself:

"I'll tell you! I'll tell you! I'll tell you now! Spare me! Don't kill me!"

Gu Chen let go of his hand, and the guy sat down against the wall with a thud, gasping in fear, his pupils losing focus with fear.

After letting him take a few breaths, Gu Chen continued to be rude, stepping directly on his shoulder and continued to ask:

"explain."

Now the rumormonger dared not disobey and told everything.

It turned out that the ones who instructed him to spread rumors were the fools!

The Fatui paid him a large sum of money and instructed more than one person to spread rumors in the streets and alleys over the next two days.

When the rumors have spread enough, they will gather a large group of people and go to the Knights under the pretext of petitioning them, but in fact they are forcing the Knights to hand over Lei Ze.

As for burning Lei Ze to death...

They may not dare to take action, but the fools behind the scenes may not.

Gu Chen then pressed him to ask what the purpose of the Fatui was?

The rumormonger shook his head with tears and snot, saying that he really didn't know.

It was obvious that he really didn't know.

But as for the Fatui, it's absolutely okay to think the worst of them.

The reason for doing this is most likely to disrupt the order in Mondstadt.

For example, causing disunity between the Knights and the people of Mondstadt.

After everything is in chaos, they can take advantage of the situation.

Afterwards, Gu Chen interrogated and found out who the Fatui who ordered him to do so were and where they were.

And finally, he asked them when they planned to gather a crowd to persecute the Knights.

The rumormonger responded shortly this afternoon.

Hearing this, Gu Chen's face became serious.

He knew that the interrogation was almost over, so he simply kicked the guy unconscious, took Paimon to the counter to pay the bill, and then quickly left the Cat's Tail Tavern.

After Gu Chen left, the guests in the Cat Tail Tavern started talking about it.

Everyone was cursing the Fatui for causing trouble, and also cursing these Mondstadt scum who were paid to do things.

The proprietress Margaret even threw the unconscious rumormonger onto the street and declared that she would never serve this person again!
