Genshin Impact Simulation: Starting with Melsin's Friend
Chapter 16 Tracking
After seeing Carolie off, Mu Feng began to entertain the group of little Melusin who arrived one after another, including Vileda and Sedna. Only after reminding the last to leave, the scatterbrained Chiara, to be careful did Mu Feng calm down and begin writing a letter to the little nurse, Siegwen, to inquire about her recent situation.
After finishing the letter, Mu Feng watched the postman take it from the mailbox and leave, but his unease did not lessen in the slightest.
I hope I'm just overthinking it...
Mu Feng prayed silently, then turned back to the cafe, picked up the remaining ingredients, and absentmindedly fed the stray cats that always roamed the neighborhood.
……
[Your proposed plan to divide the nobility has been approved and appreciated by Navilette. Although this Supreme Judge has always upheld an upright and honorable style, if some legal means can be used to eliminate the stubborn forces in Fontaine more effectively, Navilette will certainly not blindly reject some unorthodox methods.]
[Your plan, approved by Navelette, was successfully implemented thanks to the close cooperation of the special patrol team under Watlin's command and the Shadow Court led by Caroline.]
Within days, the seemingly unbreakable political alliance of the Fontainebleau nobility collapsed at an astonishing speed, far exceeding your expectations.
Guided by deliberately misleading information, nobles from all factions lived in fear.
[Navilette naturally wouldn't let this opportunity to reorganize the Fontaine Organization slip by. Apart from a few extremists who stubbornly resisted, most of the noble forces had been defeated one by one, helplessly relinquishing power and forced to choose to be incorporated.]
When this rabble regrouped, they realized they had fallen for Villette's scheme.
Of course, by then it was too late for them to turn the tide; they could only lament and beat their chests in regret.
[Navilette seized the opportunity to reorganize the official power structure of Fontaine, purging the corrupt officials who formed cliques from Mumang Palace and completely seizing the initiative in the reform.]
The remaining extremist forces were powerless to reverse the situation and had no choice but to lie low for the time being. Fontaine returned to its former tranquility.
Although, it was only a superficial calm.
……
Fontaine, Maple Dew Cafe.
Mu Feng leaned against the counter of the coffee shop, seemingly bored, taking a nap. Today, the beautiful ladies of Zhu Ying Ting were out on fieldwork. Although there were still customers, the usually bustling coffee shop seemed a bit deserted.
It's been five days already...
Mu Feng silently calculated in his mind that five days had passed since he sent the letter to Sigwen inquiring about her recent situation. Even though the Morte District and Fontaine were far apart, the convenience of the railroad ship meant that the messenger could travel back and forth in just one day.
Previously, letters sent to the nurses would usually receive an eager reply from the little one the very next day. Even when Higewen and her teacher went out for medical outreach, it never took more than three days.
Five days have passed since the letter to Siegwen was sent, but there has been no reply yet. In addition, the news of a sudden and serious outbreak in the Morte district has intensified Mu Feng's unease and anxiety.
A light drizzle began to fall outside the window, and dark clouds quickly obscured the last rays of the setting sun. Lightning flashed across the newly descending night sky, only to be mercilessly swallowed up by the endless darkness.
A rainy night is approaching.
The rain intensified, gradually expanding from fine drizzle to large raindrops, pounding against the empty streets and sparse pedestrians.
Streetlights were lit, casting an orange glow in the rain, but illuminating only a small area. Dark green shrubs, newly painted railings, and cat bowls on the ground were all partially obscured by a hazy shadow.
Mu Feng's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of rain. When he came to his senses, the café was already empty. Mu Feng sighed softly, stood up slightly stiffly, walked to the door, and gently closed the café door.
After changing the sign at the entrance from "Open for Business" to "Closed," Mu Feng slowly walked to the window and stared blankly at the torrential rain outside.
The nurse's previous letter mentioned a new "patient" friend, but perhaps because it was written hastily or because they had only known each other for a short time, Siegwen didn't describe this friend in much detail, only mentioning her briefly. Furthermore, given the timeline differing from the original storyline, Mu Feng didn't pay much attention to this insignificant detail.
But now, given the little guy's disappearance and the news of the sudden outbreak of disease in the Mortei district, Mu Feng couldn't help but suspect that the butterfly effect caused by his arrival as a transmigrator and the self-correcting power of the world line might have influenced each other, leading to the premature occurrence of certain events.
After all, this is far from some small two-word game; it's an almost entirely real Teyvat world where anything can change unpredictably.
It's all because of the arrogance of knowing the plot beforehand...
Mu Feng gave a wry smile, but sitting idly by and waiting for death was clearly not his style. However, without the power of the Eye of God, apart from relying on some advantages of being a transmigrator, Mu Feng was practically powerless, and even fighting against wild Hilichurls was extremely difficult.
But over the years since I met the little guy, Siegwen's meticulous care, the cute stickers she sometimes mischievously stuck on him, and even the slightly strange-tasting nutritional shakes, have all been so heartwarming.
Like Caroline and many other little Meilushin, the little nurse had become an indispensable part of Mu Feng's life, and he could not allow them to suffer even the slightest harm.
A determined look flashed in Mu Feng's eyes as he made his decision immediately. After leaving a note on the coffee shop counter informing Caroline of his whereabouts to avoid worrying the little girl, Mu Feng quickly began packing his things.
After hanging up the notice of closure and closing the doors and windows of the coffee shop, Mu Feng put on his trench coat, opened his umbrella, and stepped into the rainy night, stepping through the water splashing on the street.
……
That evening, Mu Feng took the last patrol boat to the Morte district.
Ignoring the fact that it was already late at night, Mu Feng quickly found a remote, dilapidated old hotel based on the address of the nurse's last letter.
After inquiring with the hotel owner, Mu Feng learned that an old woman dressed as a traveling doctor and a petite woman named Meilushin had indeed checked in a few months ago, but only a strange little girl had checked out the night before and disappeared without a trace.
Mu Feng's heart sank, his ominous premonition grew stronger, and his anxiety became uncontrollable.
He hurriedly set off again to inquire in nearby villages, and finally found the home of the girl who had been sick, only to be surprised to find that the girl had recovered.
"You want to help treat the child's illness?"
The woman who greeted them politely declined, saying, "Thank you very much for your kindness, kind person. However, a doctor came to our house last night, and the child is almost fully recovered now."
Before Mu Feng could answer, the little girl, who was still resting on the bed inside the room, immediately sat up and retorted excitedly, "No! Last night, it was Dr. Meiluxin who saved me!"
Mu Feng's heart sank to the bottom.
