Genshin Impact Simulation: Starting with Melsin's Friend

"Carole, has the security situation in Fontaine stabilized to this extent now?"

Mu Feng looked at Caroline, who was sitting in his lap eating dessert, with suspicion, and asked a question that struck at the heart of the matter.

The junior officer of Zhuyingting, feeling a little guilty, slightly avoided Mu Feng's gaze and playfully stuck out his tongue.

She only missed three out of five days. With the other Meiluxin staff around, nothing should happen...

...right?

Mu Feng sighed and rubbed his forehead. "I mean, is it possible that the other girls Lu Xin think the same way?"

For several days, the human employees of the Shadow Chasing Court have been full of complaints, and the soaring resentment has silenced almost all passersby who pass by the Mu Mang Palace.

The absenteeism rate of the Meiluxin staff, who had almost no record of taking leave for centuries, has skyrocketed. Without the efficient processing of the Meiluxin staff, mountains of documents have left the clerks in a state of utter misery.

Carol buried her little head in Mu Feng's arms, showing no intention of leaving, but instead snuggling closer to Mu Feng's embrace.

Seeing the little one's whiny expression, as if she knew she was wrong but wouldn't change, Mu Feng shook his head helplessly and affectionately pinched Carolie's soft cheeks.

If things continue like this, hopefully some of the gossip won't include outrageous stories like the coffee shop manager and Melusin's untold secrets.

Otherwise, he was certain that a certain dragon would have arrived immediately with a 40-meter water cannon and given him a good beating.

"Ding Dong."

The wind chimes at the door jingled, and a small, lake-green figure hopped in.

Well, another one skipped work.

Sedna poked half her head in, and after seeing Mu Feng, she skipped over to him and affectionately rubbed her cheek against his arm.

"Good afternoon, Brother Mufeng!"

Mu Feng smiled and reached out to rub Sedna's cheek, then served the little one coffee and dessert.

"Good afternoon, Sedna. Isn't Vilette busy?"

Sedna rubbed her ears and replied somewhat embarrassedly, "Lady Vilette and Lady Funina seemed to be discussing something important, so I sneaked back."

"After all, it's something you have to do every day,"

"Besides my job, I just eat cake and drink coffee."

Seeing Sedna's purple eyes blinking and her self-righteous expression, Mu Feng couldn't help but chuckle and tap her forehead.

"Hmm... it's like eating. There might not be any tomorrow, but if we can eat today, we should continue to eat."

"Alright, alright, my great philosopher, your coffee will get cold if you don't drink it soon."

Sedna let out a small gasp and quickly picked up the still-warm coffee to savor it.

The delicious dessert made the secretary wiggle her little ears contentedly and hum a cheerful tune.

Caroline watched all this quietly, her beautiful sapphire eyes filled with tenderness.

How long has it been since you all felt this relaxed?

Caroline sneaked over and gave Mu Feng a light peck on the cheek, then quickly shrank back into Mu Feng's arms, her cheeks burning.

Little Sedna blinked her pale purple eyes, and, not to be outdone, tiptoed and gently tapped Mu Feng's cheek.

Mu Feng was slightly surprised by the little ones' bold actions, but he still smiled and gently picked up the two little ones, giving each of them a light kiss on the forehead, which caused steam to rise from their foreheads.

……

Evening, at the Fontainebleau railway patrol station.

The young women, rushing off work, arrived from all directions and boarded the last patrol boat.

At this moment, colorful balloons and ribbons were temporarily hung on the patrol boat, making it look particularly lively and warm in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Abel and Ofini stepped down from their guide positions and skipped and hopped into the ranks of those decorating the ship's hull.

"Don't eat secretly."

Mu Feng patted Aibell's soft little ears, laughing as he interrupted Aibell's sneaky actions.

Abel pouted, withdrew her secretly outstretched hand, and gazed softly at Mu Feng with her pale purple eyes, putting on a pitiful look.

"Just one piece."

Mu Feng silently turned his head, completely powerless against the little guy's adorable charm.

Abel instantly changed to a cheerful expression, snuggled affectionately into Mu Feng's arms, and eagerly grabbed a freshly baked cookie and popped it into her mouth, a happy smile immediately appearing on her cute little face.

Mu Feng and Ou Fini, who was standing to the side, exchanged a glance and simultaneously sighed in exasperation.

As night fell, the patrol boat slowly sailed through the soft darkness, making the colorful lights on board appear even brighter.

"Since Navelette is busy with official duties, I, the Water God, will attend this gathering on his behalf!"

"The land of justice will always welcome you, returning traveler."

With graceful steps and a slight bow, Funina boarded the railboat that was slowly docking at the station.

"Rejoice! The Demon God Fucarus will bestow joyful blessings upon you!"

However, Funina's dignified demeanor did not last long before her attention was drawn to the sweet aroma of the small cakes wafting from the table.

The little girls laughed and enthusiastically served desserts to Funina, while Mu Feng's lips twitched slightly.

Sure enough, Silly Fufu is still exactly the same as she was four hundred years ago, unable to resist the temptation of small cakes.

However, five hundred years have already passed.

Your performance must have been very tiring.

Fonina.

Nearby, Funina savored various desserts, a happy smile appearing on her face.

After that trial, she never tasted such delicious desserts again, so much so that the works of other chefs tasted like cardboard to this water goddess.

I need to lose weight again.

Fu Ningna rubbed her tummy with a slight ache, thinking that maintaining a good figure is very important for an actress.

However, I'll treat myself a little tonight when it comes to small cakes.

Fufu quickly convinced herself, picked up a matcha cake with her fork and put it in her mouth, but inadvertently met Mu Feng's slightly sympathetic gaze.

That gaze pierced Funina deeply, causing her to hastily avert her eyes.

An absurd thought suddenly popped into her head.

Could he know something?

As the water goddess, she was looked at with all sorts of gazes: some with admiration, some with respect, and some with longing.

But there will be absolutely no sympathy.

Considering the trial that exposed Fontaine's secrets, Furina couldn't help but feel a little worried.

What should I do about the image of myself in the mirror?

Feeling guilty, Fu Ningna looked away, not daring to meet Mu Feng's gaze again. Her heart was churning with turmoil, and the little cake in her hand suddenly lost its flavor.

"Brother Mufeng, come quick, come quick!"

Mu Feng sighed softly and followed the excited Aibel onto the upper deck.

“Bang—pop!”

In the distance, fireworks from the Inazuma Naganohara Fireworks Shop burst into bloom in the dark summer night, their brilliant sparks scattering and writing the symbols of midsummer on the distant horizon.

"Brother Mufeng... come over here..."

"Brother Mufeng! Look, look!"

"Brother Mufeng..."

"Here here!"

Caroline, Ebel, Ofini, Chiara, Sedna, Vileda, Bressin, Effie, and all the little Melosins of Fontaine.

At this moment, they were all beaming with soft smiles, waving and calling for Mu Feng to come closer. Their soft little hands pulled Mu Feng around, and the small patrol boat was filled with laughter.

Mu Feng smiled gently as the little ones played happily, and in a daze, it seemed as if he had once again been transported to that small coffee shop four hundred years ago.

Inside the cabin, Funina watched from afar, a fleeting look of envy flashing in her eyes.
