Landed Xumi: There is no problem with my numbers!

"—Humph, so what? Those bad guys can be attacked, so what? It's better than attacking ordinary people!"

He has absolutely no good feelings towards the Fatui. After this incident, those guys have been completely blacklisted by Paimon.

With just two sentences, he convinced his companions. Looking at Ying's expression of deep thought and then sudden realization, Paimon felt that he was a master of comforting people.

Continuing along the path, scattered houses gradually began to appear on both sides of the road, and the stone fox statues on the roadside also attracted some attention of Ying and Paimeng.

Because both of them could fly now, the pursuers behind them were completely out of sight.

After finally breathing a sigh of relief, Ying paused for a moment and realized that being wanted didn't seem so bad after all:

——The two of them had Chen Ge Hu to live in, and they had prepared a lot of supplies for the sake of caution before coming. In addition, the ordinary shogunate soldiers could not keep up with their speed at all.

As long as you are careful and find a way to see the gods, and explain yourself clearly, you can return to normal life and not really be mixed up with the monsters of the abyss every day.

"Huh, speaking of which, where are we going next?"

"I previously said that Thomas didn't disclose our connection to the Shebuyo to avoid causing us any trouble. If we contact them at the address they gave us, we shouldn't implicate them."

Paimon scratched his head and wanted to go find the only acquaintance they knew in Inazuma.

".A mere wanted criminal naturally cannot have any influence on one of the Three Magistrates.

But the biggest problem right now is that we don’t know if the credibility of the social media is that high.”

Slightly lowering his head, thinking,

After all, the abyss is the mortal enemy of any country. Ying is not sure whether the "Egret Princess" will choose to cooperate with them in the current situation.

“Well, how about we prepare to escape and go take a look?

Everything that has happened so far is caused by this bracelet, and now it is time for it to come into play."

I looked down at the bracelet on my hand that had both defense and teleportation functions.

Paimon felt that so much had happened to get it, it would be a pity not to use it.

".Well, I hope the Society Bugyo can find a way for us to see the gods."

"Based on past experience, as long as we can see the gods, everything will be fine."

I sighed deeply, thinking that I was already extremely unlucky and it was impossible for me to be even more unlucky.

Ying nodded to Paimon and decided to go and take a look at the direction of the society that Thomas had previously revealed.

On the other side, Hanamizaka.

While the traveler team was preparing to seek the gods to clear their grievances, Lin Feng had already been in his new home for several days.

Hanamizaka is adjacent to Inazuma Castle above, and is considered one of the most prosperous areas in Inazuma.

However, due to the presence of large fields and numerous craftsmen, compared to the bustling streets of Kamigatamachi, this place has a more peaceful and rural feel.

As an "idle house" that he had obtained from a certain fox lady, Lin Feng had swept out a lot of fox fur from the corners when he first arrived.

Although he lamented the severe hair loss of a certain pink-haired fox, after looking at the location and size, he tentatively expressed his approval of Yae Shinko's taste:

——The house is of moderate size and made entirely of wood. It is adjacent to a cherry tree in full bloom. The brown walls and roof tiles are neat and intact, and one can smell the delicate fragrance of flowers.

In addition, because the house is close to the White Fox Wilderness in the distance, there is plenty of space and the secluded and quiet atmosphere is also very much to his liking.

"."

Nodding, he glanced at the flower bed in front of the door and the small courtyard behind the house.

After putting in the Inazuma-style furniture prepared by the Tree King and Nashida, he was quite satisfied with the room that he had spent so much time to clean.

Lin Feng had been standing in front of the door for a long time. He admired the waterwheel and fields in the distance for a while and was about to go in and rest for a while.

But as soon as he took a step forward, a crisp sound like summer fireworks, full of energy, reached his ears:

"—Hey, new friend, look here, look here!"

"——I've heard from my dad that there's a new neighbor here. I'm glad to finally meet you. I've already prepared several gifts!"

???

He paused slightly, thinking that the neighbor who greeted him so warmly in Hanamizaka must be someone who matched his memory.

Holding the guess in my heart, I turned back slightly.

Then, under the dancing cherry blossoms and the golden afternoon sun, Lin Feng saw a smiling and energetic girl with golden-red hair and eyes, and dressed in a particularly recognizable outfit.

Chapter 471 Qi Liangliang: A scholar moved in nearby? Phew, I hope he's not someone who will scratch a cat.

"——Huh, I finally get to see you. It's really not easy!"

"——I heard from Dad that you live alone. How is it? Did you lack supplies when you first arrived? Could you find a place to buy vegetables and other daily necessities? Is it convenient for you to cook?"

"——Let me tell you, everyone in Hanamizaka basically has their own farmland, so they rarely buy vegetables or other daily necessities from outside.

You just moved in, so if you have no other options, you can come to our house temporarily. It’s right next to the Naganohara Fireworks Shop, but if you have too many friends, we might not have enough food.”

"."

Chattering, before Lin Feng could say anything, the girl in front of him, who was dressed unexpectedly boldly but was very enthusiastic, had already said a lot.

Perhaps because it had been so long since anyone had moved into the neighborhood, the girl handed the gift box to her "new neighbor" while sharing some tips on living nearby:

Things like, "Ms. Kinan Anna from Kinan Ryoten can help you buy ingredients," "If you're sick, you can borrow some medicine from Yaedo," and "If you've lost something, go to the nearby "Manduan Coral Detective Agency" and post a request."

He was full of interest and talked non-stop, as if he could keep talking without anyone interrupting him.

It was not until he saw the young man in front of him hesitate at first and then gave him an inexplicable look of admiration that Xiao Gong paused, blinked, and asked with some confusion:

"Um, is there something you didn't understand? Or is there something about my clothes that I'm not wearing properly?"

After carefully checking her body and even slightly pulling the bandage on her chest, the blonde girl breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that there was nothing wrong.

"No, Miss Xiao Gong explained it clearly, and there was nothing disrespectful about it."

Lin Feng shook his head and smiled, with some emotion in his tone:

"It's just that many people I usually meet don't like to talk much. After seeing Miss Xiao Gong's spirit, I suddenly admire someone who can speak so long in one breath."

“Huh?”? !

“—Huh?! Oops, I think I forgot to introduce myself!”

"——I just came up and talked so much. You don't think I'm a weirdo, do you?"

I wanted to ask why the other party knew my name, but soon I realized that I had missed the most crucial step.

The girl who was full of energy just now had a dull look in her eyes and felt that the first impression she gave to others was probably ruined.

"No, I've already introduced myself."

Lin Feng waved his hand, indicating to the girl in front of him not to mind it.

"The successor of Naganohara, the queen of the summer festival, the 'all-powerful' Miss Yosomiya, I knew all of this even though I just moved in."

"—My name is Yuan Shang, a scholar returning from Xumi. I'm glad to meet you. Since we'll be neighbors from now on, please come in and have a seat."

He accepted the gift that Xiao Gong insisted on handing over, opened the hinged door behind him, and extended his hand to greet the person.

Knowing that Inazuma had the habit of visiting newly moved neighbors to say hello, and after all, Nashida had helped to prepare it, Lin Feng also placed a shoe cabinet at the entrance to receive guests.

"Phew, I've been busy making fireworks lately and haven't had much time to chat with others. I'm almost suffocating."

"Although my dad likes to listen to me talk, his hearing is not very good after all, so it is difficult for him to give some surprising responses."

A moment later, a square table was set with several cups of tea and desserts.

He heaved a sigh of relief and looked curiously at the obviously high-quality ornaments and furniture in the house.

While Xiao Gong was wondering which master had created this work, he explained what he had just said with some embarrassment.

"Please use."

"Although I'm not a master at brewing tea, these tea leaves from Liyue and the desserts I made shouldn't be too disappointing if you just taste them."

After all, the people I dealt with before were generally of very high status, and it was rare to see someone who was so lively and talkative.

Feeling the warmth and intimacy in the other person's heart, like the warmth of fireworks, Lin Feng could understand why the heir of a fireworks workshop would have the title of "all-powerful":

——If one day I were to walk into the Naganohara Fireworks Shop and insist on ordering fried rice and three-color dumplings to Yoshimiya in front of me,

This guy might be distressed, but he's basically the type who can actually serve you food in a fireworks store.

???

"Hmm? Liyue's tea? A homemade dessert!"

"——Please, please let me try some! I'll trade you with some of the three-colored dumplings I made myself later, and I'll give you the bigger ones!"

His eyes lit up instantly. He loved desserts very much, and under the lockdown order, he was very curious about everything in the outside world. Xiao Gong clasped his hands together and made a pleading look.

"Haha, please feel free to do as you please. Didn't Miss Xiao Gong also put three-colored dumplings in her gift box? Let's consider it an exchange."

He pushed the plate of dessert in the middle toward the girl opposite, signaling Xiao Gong not to be polite.

After all, the two little ones at home love to eat desserts, and the authority of Guoba can also play a certain auxiliary role.

Since Lin Feng had the idea of ​​opening a dessert shop, he was certainly confident enough in his ability to make desserts.

"Okay, then I will..."

With great anticipation, he picked up a small piece of cake that was obviously different from the traditional snacks from Inazuma and put it in his mouth.

Looking at the age of the young man Yuanshang in front of her, Xiao Gong, who had been planning to encourage him no matter what, froze. The originally talkative girl suddenly fell silent as if the microphone had been turned off.

? ?

".Something not to your taste? Come to think of it, I don't think I tasted it. Then I'll change it for you."

Worried that something might have gone wrong, although the probability was extremely low, Lin Feng still planned to reach out and take the plate and try eating a piece.

"."

“.”?

He reached out and pulled, but the plate didn't budge at all, held firmly in place by another hand painted with red nail polish.

I vaguely realized something,

Lin Feng looked up, and sure enough, he saw a girl who was protecting her food, with shining eyes and a burning gaze looking at him.

"Wow, your snacks are so delicious! If you set up a stall at the festival, it will definitely be the most popular one."

“There really aren’t any particularly good dessert shops here in Inazuma. Compared to those street vendors, sometimes I feel like the ones I make are not as good as the ones I make myself.”

"—I've strayed off topic again! I was trying to say how sorry I am. I came here to visit, but ended up eating so much."

Just now, I easily exposed my true thoughts in the eye contact.

Then, Lin Feng was stuffed with several plates of food with excuses such as "I accidentally made too much, I can't finish it all by myself", "It's a pity that it's not fresh after being kept for a long time", and "Just think of it as an advance taste test for my dim sum shop".

I have never eaten such delicious snacks. Although I don’t know what Lord Ogosho’s daily diet is, I even think that even the food eaten by gods is probably no more than this.

But no matter what he thought at the time, after emptying his mind and eating a lot of food under such warm hospitality, Xiao Gong came to his senses and now felt only endless embarrassment and regret:

——How can you eat a lot of desserts when you visit someone for the first time?

The person in front of you is not some old lady who enjoys feeding others fat. If you give the first impression of a glutton, your future dealings with her will be completely ruined.

"Oh, Miss Xiao Gong, don't worry about it. You are the one who helped me a lot."

"At first, I was worried about not being able to adapt to the local environment. Now that I see that these desserts are very popular, I will have a little more confidence when training employees in the future."

Pushing a cup of tea forward, Lin Feng, who had often fed Ganyu in various ways back in Liyue, was in a very good mood at the moment.

——Inazuma’s dessert needs are not ordinary. She can count a lot of people who like desserts.

Since Xiao Gong said that there are no particularly outstanding dessert shops here, after opening my own store, maybe I can ask the people from the Abyss Cult to help fill the market gap.

"Ah, come to think of it, I was just about to ask you. Isn't Mr. Fuchigami a scholar? Why did you want to open a pastry shop? And your pastry-making skills are so superb."

"Well, maybe because food is the medium of the soul, so I just wanted to try it to get a friend who is staying at home to come out."

Lin Feng smiled and gave a brief explanation.

"of course."

"After the shop on Machi Street is renovated, I won't have many opportunities to make desserts myself. Whether the sales are good or not will depend on my 'employees'."

Not only the Abyss Cult, he also planned to throw some of the people he brought back into the snack shop.
