Genshin Impact: I wrote the plot into a novel to spoil the future

Gan Yu: "As long as we analyze the key points, clearly state the pros and cons... and, crucially, gain the approval of A-Ping and the traveler, Qi Xing will definitely examine this case seriously."

Gan Yu's words prove once again that the martial arts world is not just about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and social interactions.

Is the music festival important? No; is Dvorak important? No.

So why add another program for him at the last minute? Of course, it's because the Traveler and Grandma Ping are also supporting him!

What is the Traveler's identity? If she supports it, not only Liyue, but even Mondstadt and Inazuma, the magistrates and the Knights of Favonius would have to consider the Traveler's opinion.

Yingmei can casually say "Give me some face" in any of these three countries.

That's why everyone was so furious. Devorshak was incredibly lucky; his near-drowning actually made things go smoothly for him, allowing him to connect with the strongest connection in Teyvat.

Wait a minute, the Anemo Archon brought you to Liyue at first, that was a favorable wind, but then you fell into the water, that was a favorable current? No wonder you had such good luck! Case solved!

In short, Gan Yu took this matter seriously and treated the 'proposal' as work, directly discussing the musicians' accommodation and food requirements with Dvorak.

Readers who see this sentence will understand that the matter is most likely settled.

Most readers envy the Traveler's Face Fruit ability.

However, none of the people in Lin Qiu's family felt anything; they were all very proud.

Even the least influential Arataki Ichito has connections in Inazuma, wouldn't you say? Kujo Sara and Kamisato Ayato.

In the story, Gan Yu gets into work mode and is no longer confused as before.

Yao Yao immediately praised her, saying that everyone has their strengths, and that Sister Gan Yu is just not good at taking care of people.

But it's okay, she's good at taking care of people and can take care of Sister Gan Yu.

Paimon: "Yaoyao, can you come and take care of me too? I'm hungry!"

[Traveler: "Paimon, have some ambition."]

While the group was chatting, Gan Yu had already asked her questions and planned to hand the draft over to Qi Xing for review.

Two hours later, Ke Qing came over in person and told the traveler that Gan Yu's proposal had been approved by the Seven Stars.

The Liyue merchant's eyes widened. "Duojiu? How long did you say?! You passed it in two hours?"

Two hours! A performance at the Lantern Festival, and you seven people from the Seven Stars only discussed it for two hours before approving it? For us, two weeks would be considered fast!

Although they knew that Dvorak's proposal was far less important and impactful than their business proposal.

However, the efficiency with which it was passed still made them incredibly envious. Jealousy makes people ugly, and they wished they could tear the four characters "Dvorak" from the book and stuff them in their mouths.

Leaving aside the merchants' dilemmas, Keqing had already led the travelers and Dvorak to the performance venue, which was located in the port, a bustling area.

However, at this moment, a new job came to Keqing. Baiwen came to inform Keqing that there were some unstable factors in Yunlaihai.

It's said that there's 'bandit music' over there, and all the villagers have come to Liyue Harbor.

The traveler was intrigued. This was like a godsend! He was just thinking about how to have a back-and-forth with the Seven Stars, and this opportunity to help had come knocking on his door.

Paimon also volunteered, I mean, the Traveler volunteered, and the two of them went together to the location mentioned by Yunlaihai Baiwen.

Paimon was still complaining when he arrived at this place: there was no music, not even a soul in sight.

Before she could finish her rant, a woman's voice suddenly interrupted her.

[Ye Lan: "So it was you guys who had nothing better to do than come to a place like this."]

This is Ye Lan's first appearance, but Lin Qiu did not draw an illustration for her, keeping her a mystery.

Ye Lan was very satisfied; it seemed that Lin Qiu also knew that his job required him to keep his face hidden.

Paimon: "Night Orchid! Why do you walk so silently? It's scary!"

In the story, Yelan ignored Paimon's sarcastic remarks and countered Paimon with, "You don't look like you're scared."

Yelan's 'lobbying' landed a 20, a resounding success, and she successfully persuaded Paimon.

Paimon: "Y-you...you're right..."

In fact, Ye Lan was already used to not making a sound, and it was only when she deliberately made the sound of walking that she felt uncomfortable.

Compared to the unreliable Paimon, Yingmei was much more reliable. She directly asked Yelan about the strange music.

It just so happens that Ye Lan is the one who came to handle this matter, and she can actually share some information with Ying Mei. She directly invited Ying Mei into the house and said, "Zhou, come in with me."

The house was surrounded by miscellaneous items, covered in a thin layer of dust, indicating that someone had lived there not long ago.

The doors and windows are still intact, with no signs of being pried open.

But the house was empty, with no valuables inside, and it looked like it had been robbed.

That's not right either; if it gets burgled, this place is too 'tidy'.

"My junior brother... just like Master, he always tells me embarrassing stories about me. How should I deal with him?"

Chapter 340: The Search for the Fairy Begins

This stumped Paimon and the traveler. Logically speaking, a burglary wouldn't leave the room so 'tidy'; aside from bloodstains, the room would at least be a bit messy.

But if it was a thief who sneaked in when no one was around, there are no signs of forced entry on the doors and windows.

The traveler and Paimon were confused about what was going on, but fortunately, Nightland pieced together the truth based on some local intelligence stories.

It turns out that a long time ago, there was a band of mountain bandits in this area. They would blow a horn before each raid on a village.

Over time, villagers would flee their homes with all the possessions they could carry when they heard the horn.

Although the bandits were captured, the sound of the horn was etched into the hearts of the villagers.

The eerie music in this incident was the sound of a horn; it was after hearing this sound that the villagers ran away with all their belongings.

That's why the house looks 'tidy' but has no valuables, as if it had been ransacked.

Readers understood: it means there are no bandits now, but someone sounded the horn, and then the villagers ran away.

What kind of Liyue version of the boy who cried wolf story is this?

Thankfully, the Traveler and Yelan came to resolve the problem. With their arrival, the sky was clear again!

Ye Lan is an expert in this field. She not only analyzed the truth, but also found various traces left by the copycat.

This copycat is also very good at counter-surveillance; even travelers with elemental vision cannot see these traces.

In reality, Paimon covered her mouth and said, "Night Orchid, so amazing."

No wonder I was caught sneaking food in the kitchen; it must have been Yelan who found out.

However, in reality, her affair was not a secret at all; everyone knew about it, but no one called her out on it except Lin Qiu.

"Hmm... I'm actually quite confident in interrogation, more so than tracking." Ye Lan revealed a charming smile.

Paimon was terrified. "Don't interrogate me! I ate the dessert last night!"

Fulina was shocked. So you ate my little cake! Death penalty! Death penalty!

Returning to the story, Yelan led the travelers on a journey to find the imitator, eventually locating him at one of the treasure-hunting groups' camps.

At this point, readers can't help but wonder, what role does the traveler play in this event...? Is he expressing the author's homesickness?

They immediately understood the role of the traveler.

The copycat was named Fu Jing, and he refused to submit to the law when Ye Lan came to investigate.

Then the traveler pounced! A left front kick, a right roundhouse kick!

People should shine in their areas of expertise. Brain-teasing detective games are not suitable for travelers; 'persuasion' with fists is more appropriate.

After the traveler's "gentle persuasion" and a thorough beating, Fu Jing finally gave in and knelt down.

Fu Jing: "Spare me—"

[Ye Lan: "Confess yourself. You only have one chance."]

Fu Jing was terrified. "I was just pretending to be tough. These two in front of me are the real tough guys."

He confessed that as a member of the treasure-hunting gang, he didn't do any petty theft, so he had a tough time.

With the Lunar New Year approaching, he wanted to improve his life and have a good New Year during the Lantern Festival.

This is quite amusing for the readers. You, a thief, actually think about improving your life during the New Year. If you do improve your life, how are the people you steal from supposed to have a good New Year?

Paimon retorted angrily, "Well, so you're starting to complain now!"

Fu Jing quickly said he didn't dare, he was just telling his true story.

He quickly added that he remembered something from his childhood: when the bandits blew their horns, his grandmother would take him away.

He tried it out according to the tune he remembered, and to his surprise, he succeeded.

He said he knew he was wrong and would return the items, begging the traveler to let him off the hook.

The readers were both angry and amused. "Do you know you're wrong? You know you're going to jail!"

You've experienced being threatened by bandits before, and it wasn't pleasant!

And now you're using this method to intimidate others, turning from a victim into a perpetrator, and you still want to gain sympathy?

You were quite arrogant just now, even resisting when you were caught. Why are you acting like a coward now? We still prefer your unruly self. Try to come back to your old self.

Fortunately, Ye Lan didn't let him off the hook. Not only did she demand that he return the items and apologize, but she also had to go to jail.

Yelan handled the incident well, but not wanting to reveal herself, she naturally attributed the credit to the traveler.

The traveler returned to Yujingtai to report to Baiwen, who said that Ningguang would come to commend the traveler in person later.

Readers have become numb to this. How could such a trivial matter be personally commended by Tianquan Star? Is this the influence of the Traveler?

Yes, that's the power of the Traveler; Ningguang actually came in person.

After Ningguang arrived, she exchanged a few polite words and then started chatting with the traveler.

The large lantern displayed during the last Lantern Festival was "True Lord Who Guides the Heavens and Moves the Clouds," while this year's lantern is "True Lord Who Sings Over the Sea and Dwells in the Clouds."

Like "Yixiao Daotian Zhenjun", Narumi Qixia was also an immortal who died for Liyue.

As mentioned before, in addition to celebrating the Lunar New Year, the Lantern Festival is also a way to remember and commemorate our ancestors.

"On this joyous Lantern Festival, we pray that the heroic souls may return from the sea."

Guided by countless lanterns, may the spirits find their way home, and may they find a peaceful and harmonious Liyue once they return.

Ningguang: "If music could travel far and wide with the flowing water, I wonder if their spirits in heaven would appreciate the melodies of this era."

Ningguang also casually reminded the traveler to share any information he had about finding the fairy, as she was also curious.

Two days later, the traveler returned to Yujingtai, this time to find Gan Yu, who planned to go with her to search for the fairy in the story.

A fairy will take you to find another fairy, that makes sense.

Upon arriving at Yujingtai, they found Ganyu already waiting for the travelers, looking drowsy and nodding her head repeatedly, as if she were in a math class.

No wonder Gan Yu could fall asleep in the grass; now she has to fall asleep standing up.

Upon seeing the travelers arrive, Gan Yu immediately perked up and waved her hand at Paimon's concern, indicating that she was fine.

"This won't do, Sister Ganyu. Rest is still necessary," said Yae no Miko.

“Yes, I think so too.” Qin nodded, then continued, “I have a medicine that can shorten sleep time, would you like to try it?”

Gan Yu's eyes lit up; she was clearly very interested in the medicine Qin had mentioned.

Funina nodded seriously, but inwardly she was thinking, 'Wait a minute? Shouldn't we be getting a good night's sleep? Why is it shortening my sleep time?'
