[Genshin Impact]: I can become stronger by cooking

"Wash, where are you going?"

After hearing the name, Marcelle felt as if struck by lightning. Her legs seemed to be filled with lead and she could not walk anymore.

Turning to look at the figure in black robes, Marcelle asked tremblingly: "Who...are you? Why do you know the name [Vasher]?"

Chao Ke didn't say much, but pointed inside the house and said, "Come in and talk."

Marcelle clenched her fists and gritted her teeth, as if trying to decide whether to risk entering.

Although Marcelle would most likely not be able to escape if she used force, this was a wealthy area after all, with many self-discipline patrol agencies, and Chao Ke did not want to make too much noise.

So, he said to Ke playfully.

"Wouldn't you like to talk about Vignelle?"

The three words "Vignere" pierced Marcelle's psychological defenses like bullets. After looking at Chao Ke's figure solemnly, she walked into the room resolutely.

A mocking smile appeared on Chao Ke's lips. This inhuman beast was actually quite sentimental when it came to relationships.

Chao Ke sat down on the sofa without any hesitation, as if he was the owner of the room.

Pointing at Marcelle, he said, "Go, get me a glass of water."

Since it was about Vinier, Marcelle didn't care about Chao Ke's bossing her around, and she stood up to get some water.

"Don't mix the original fetal sea water with me, it's too salty. I'm telling you in advance that I'm not from Fontaine, so that stuff is useless to me."

Marcelle was stunned, and said frankly, "You are joking. This is about Weniel. Even if I want to harm you, I have to listen to you."

After that, he took out two sealed bottles of sparkling water from the cabinet and handed one to Chao Ke.

"The natural gas from Iliye Island is soaked in water. It's already bottled by the manufacturer. I can't tamper with it."

Chapter 33 Compromise

Chao Ke took it and drank it openly.

You know what, it’s really good, much better than the Paris water in my previous life.

"Please tell me about Vinier." Marcelle sat opposite the sofa and looked at Chao Ke solemnly.

Looking at Marcelle's sincere and anxious expression, Chao Ke sighed and finally softened his heart.

"Vashey, stop it."

"Stop selling Lex and stop harming young girls."

"Vignel is dead. No matter how much you do, it will be useless. Tomorrow morning, take your evidence and go to Fontaine to confess your crime."

Marcelle was a little surprised by Chao Ke's words.

He thought of many possibilities, including being controlled, blackmailed, or even killed.

But he never thought that this person who didn't even want to reveal his true face would persuade him to stop.

Marcelle took a sip of water and said, "Although I don't know where you learned about my past, I want to correct you."

As she spoke, Marcelle walked to the window and looked at the bright moonlight caressing the street, where a fountain was quietly gushing out water.

From this, Vashie seemed to see a glimpse of the profile of his former lover.

"Viniel is just temporarily trapped in the water, she is not away from me."

"One day, I will pull her out of the water."

"After all, Vignelle and I have an agreement that we will go together no matter where we go!"

Marcelle said, with a smile from the heart. For the sake of Vignelle, even if it means going against the entire Fontaine!

Chao Ke let out a long sigh of relief. That was all.

A shadow flashed by, and Marcelle suddenly felt that her body was out of her control, as if she was flying.

Then, the pattern on the floor suddenly enlarged before my eyes.

boom!

Marcelle's head was grabbed by Chao Ke from behind and slammed hard on the floor.

"Damn it, even though I gave you a chance, you didn't use it. You even tried to be sentimental. Do you really think you're the protagonist?"

After a fierce beating, Cotti picked up the dying Marcelle and threw her to the ground.

Looking down at Marcelle from above, Chao Ke felt uneasy.

From a personal perspective, Chao Ke wanted to get rid of this beast right now.

The production of Les, human trafficking, and live experiments, no matter which crime it is, are challenging Chao Ke's bottom line of tolerance.

Killing Marcelle now or sending her to the court of justice can definitely prevent a large number of tragedies from happening.

But when it came time to really do it, Chao Ke hesitated.

It would certainly be satisfying to get rid of Vashie here, but Chao Ke might not be willing to accept this consequence.

Vashé's existence is not only a key figure in promoting the plot. He is the president of the Fontaine Cabrière Chamber of Commerce and the head of the Les Cartel.

According to Liyue, he was involved in a lot of causes and effects.

Chao Ke stared at Marcelle silently. Vashie seemed to realize something and looked at Chao Ke with his blood-stained head.

After a long time, he let out a long breath.

After all, I am a selfish person.

If Vashé's target was Alechino or the Liyue people, Chao Ke would not have hesitated at all.

But for a group of strangers in Fontaine, I plucked the strings of fate and pushed myself to the front...

Chao Ke’s awareness doesn’t seem to be that high yet.

We are all fools, why are you still acting like a saint?

Perhaps she sensed that Chao Ke's murderous intent had disappeared, and Marcelle, who was lying on the ground, stretched out her arms.

"Pull me up. If you don't kill me, you still want to talk, right?"

Chao Ke reached out and pulled Marcelle up.

"You have come from nothing and worked your way up to where you are today. That's something."

Marcelle endured the pain from all parts of her body, sat down on the chair, and said with a wry smile: "Without strength, this thing is just duckweed in the water after all."

"Tell me, sir, what do you want by leaving me alive?"

"For money, and a promise."

"Money is not a problem, but as for promises... Sir, you and I are both smart people. Either you come up with specific chips in exchange! Otherwise, you can only get empty words from me that are only useful tonight."

Even though Marcelle was covered in blood and in a mess at the moment, his aura was not inferior at all.

Marcelle was betting that Chao Ke would not kill him tonight, and the stakes of this bet were his own life.

It seemed that fate really favored Marcelle tonight. He won the bet and got the gambling money he had always dreamed of.

"I want two billion Mora, and you promise not to sell Les, not to traffic girls, and not to engage in any illegal activities for at least five years."

"Oh? That's a tough promise. What about the chips you offered?"

Marcelle was not angry, but rather excited, because she knew that the more stringent the conditions Chao Ke offered, the more weight he would give.

He held up three fingers to Ke and said one by one.

"The first bargaining chip is the fundamental reason why the Fontaine people would be dissolved by the original fetal sea water."

"The second chip is how Vignel really felt when he was dissolved."

"The third chip is where Vignelle is after it is dissolved, and the advice she wants to give you most."

"I will tell you these three chips one, three, and five years after you fulfill your promise. How do you think?"

Vasai's body trembled, his vocal cords trembled with excitement, and his eyes stared at Chao Ke, "Are you sure what you said is true? Weniel will still be conscious after dissolving, right?"

Chao Ke laughed mockingly, "Have you lost your rationality after mentioning Vinel? If my information is false, why don't you just refuse to fulfill your promise?"

Marcelle also realized her own gaffe, smiled bitterly, and looked at Chao Ke and said.

"I can give you 5 billion Mora, and it's all clean money. I just ask you to answer my question. After dissolving, Viniel still has consciousness, right?"

Chao Ke was also shocked when he heard the amount Marcelle offered.

As expected of a flour seller, he makes money quickly.

Marcelle showed her sincerity, and Chao Ke naturally did not hesitate and gave an answer readily.

"Yes, Weiniel will still be conscious after dissolving, but this will is being destroyed by your actions."

"Destroyed? Sir, what do you mean by that?"

"You'll understand after you hear the third chip."

Although she was dissatisfied with Chao Ke's behavior of setting a trap again, Marcelle also kept her promise.

With Chao Ke's help, he opened several mechanisms, pulled out a golden plastic-wrapped check from the interlayer of a picture album, and handed it to Chao Ke.

"This amount of money is basically most of the clean funds I have."

Looking at the golden plastic-wrapped check, Ke raised his eyebrows, and without saying anything, he carefully put the golden check away.

Since the purpose of this trip has been achieved, Chao Ke did not stay any longer, turned around and walked out of Marcelle's villa.

Inside the villa, the spacious living room was in a mess, but Marcelle, who was covered in wounds, didn't care at all. Instead, she repeated Vignel's name over and over again with lifeless eyes.

"Vignel, Vignel, ... one day, we will meet again."

However, in a place that neither Chao Ke nor Marcelle noticed, someone was silently spying on the whole process.

"This is the starting point for the accidental changes in the world, what an interesting child..."

Chapter 34 [Fragrant Mashed Potatoes]

Leone district.

When Chao Ke returned home, it was already late at night, and even his elder sister, a night owl, had gone upstairs to rest.
