In the story, Xingqiu finds his teacher, Abedo, with the help of a traveler, and Abedo treats him very well.
Abedo simply stated: From now on, just call him Abedo.
Xingqiu quickly waved his hand, saying, "How can you call Teacher Bai'e by his name directly? It's too impolite."
In reality, everyone should feel a little ashamed. You just ignored Teacher Bai'e, which seems even more impolite than calling him by his name.
A certain fried tofu and a certain flounder simultaneously held up their own Q-version emoji images with a big question mark. What's wrong with using 'nicknames'?
You're making us both look really awkward. In the previous story, they even called each other by their 'online names' after they met.
Clearly, the two of them didn't get along, but there was no problem between Abedo and Xingqiu.
[Abedo, with his high EQ, said: "Why not? Since we're all Ying's friends, it should be more convenient to call her by her real name."]
"Besides, we've been corresponding quite often before, so your politeness makes me feel a little uncomfortable."
The traveler unconsciously straightened his back; he really gave me face.
It was clearly a conversation between two people, yet it managed to save face for a third person – that's the emotional intelligence of Professor Abedo.
In real life, Yingmei nudged Lin Qiu and said, "Learn from this."
Yingmei is very 'dissatisfied' with Lin Qiu because she produces the fewest emojis.
Lin Qiu looked puzzled. Am I not emotionally intelligent enough? Please, don't get me wrong. When I tease you, it's not because I have low emotional intelligence, it's because I'm doing it on purpose.
"Look at that guy over there, that's what you call 'low emotional intelligence'," Lin Qiu said, looking at Chong Yun who was trying not to laugh.
Chongyun, who was standing next to him, could hardly contain his laughter because Xingqiu and Bai'e in the illustration seemed flustered when they were talking.
To actually see Xingqiu looking so flustered! Absolutely amazing!
Teacher Bai'e is truly talented; this illustration is so lifelike! I love it!
Fortunately, Xingqiu was engrossed in his book and didn't notice his friend's expression.
Fortunately, they were reading together, and because Wendy, Abedo, and others were there, Chongyun was still quite conscious of his image and endured it.
If this were in private, he would be slapping Xingqiu's thigh and laughing.
Hu Tao was much more natural. She chuckled and shared her joy with Xiang Ling beside her without any hesitation.
Turning the page again, Xingqiu asked about the 'Tibetan Poetry Conference,' which was compiled by Paimeng, but Abedo reacted quickly and said that it was indeed true.
To put it simply, Xingqiu and Abedo are most likely putting on an act, knowing full well what's going on.
If this "Tibetan Poetry Competition" wasn't orchestrated by Paimeng, then perhaps only the travelers were kept in the dark.
Abedo invited Xingqiu to dinner, knowing that people from Liyue liked to discuss matters over meals.
Xingqiu said, "Speaking of which, Shimura-ya's eel ochazuke is pretty good, how about we go there?"
After a moment's thought, Abedo said, "Shimura-ya? But it's a bit windy today, how about we go to Utsu-tei instead?"
Yae no Miko glanced at Abedo with amusement, thinking, "She's really clever."
I wanted to make a 'thumbs up' emoji, but I realized I forgot to ask the little one to draw this type.
After looking through them, I realized that I have a lot of 'evil smile' and 'smirk' in my emoji collection.
Anyway, the goddess had become interested in Abedo's wisdom and wondered if she should discuss it with him.
The discussion revolves around how to scam, cheat, or deceive... basically, it's about the coral flounder.
Abedo's question is actually a trap. The key point is how Yukiaki, who had just arrived in Inazuma, knew about Shimura-ya and Utsu-tei.
Some might think that someone else mentioned it to Xingqiu? After all, he has a business relationship with the Yaedo people, and it was other Inatsumi people who told him.
But the key to the Abedo problem is the strong winds, which affect Shimura-ya, an open-air restaurant.
Xingqiu had no doubts about this; it was obvious that he knew Shimura-ya was an open-air restaurant.
People might say that Shimura-ya's XXX is delicious, but they won't specifically mention that Shimura-ya is an open-air restaurant, and it's not like they're complaining about it on a review app.
It's important to know that communication in Teyvat was still limited to letters, and the interaction between authors and editors wasn't as informal or conversational.
Before this, Inazuma was still under lockdown, so it was impossible for Yukiaki to have come beforehand.
Based on this, Abedo suspects that Xingqiu did not just arrive; he may have arrived much earlier!
Chapter 783 Detective Game
In addition, there is an even more obvious point of doubt, namely the lines of poetry. Abedo reminded Paimon to read the two poems together.
Paimon reads the poem: "Because of her drunken sleep, Cui Guang lost the poem by Kui Zhi Weng... Kui Zhi Weng took his own poem and gave it to a mysterious person..."
It's all connected! Readers who love to analyze things have already noticed, and now even those who don't want to use their brains have noticed thanks to the reminder from the 'external brain' teacher, Abedo.
However, everyone had the same question as Paimon: why did Xingqiu steal his own book?
Oh no! The poem says "his life is threatened," does that mean Xingqiu is in danger?!
Once Chongyun understood this, his expression changed. His previous mockery vanished, and he began to read the story seriously.
His body unconsciously leaned towards Xingqiu, but his back was turned to him, subtly protecting him behind him.
Although he knew there would be no enemies at the scene, Chongyun became nervous at the thought that someone might threaten Xingqiu's life.
Paimon asked worriedly, "Is Xingqiu in any danger?"
Teacher Abedo was also unaware of this, and would inquire further once they arrived at Wuyou Pavilion.
There are private rooms there, which are relatively secluded, so you can speak out if you are really threatened.
It seems that everyone who cares about Xingqiu, both inside and outside the story, is taking action, while Xingqiu himself sits silently in place.
Xingqiu stared at the book without moving, but he wasn't really absorbed in it. He seemed to still be there, but he had actually been gone for a while.
He knew he was indeed in danger, in danger of dying! He didn't want that kind of thing!
The more worried people are about him now, the more they'll laugh when they find out the reason!
Xingqiu, who was about to pass away, obviously did not notice Chongyun's little actions beside him.
Xingqiu hesitated whether to turn the page. Was he about to be killed off?
As we all know, social death occurs because a person has self-esteem, so as long as they are unaware of it, they will not socially die.
But it's no use him not knowing; all his good friends are already turning the page, and he'll see it sooner or later.
Xingqiu's mind raced, the world seemed to slow down as he frantically pondered what to do. What to do?!
Why didn't Lin Qiu threaten me to pay him to delete the content before publishing his book?
After thinking for a moment, Xingqiu turned the pages of the book and began to read.
What's the use of stopping your friends? Can you stop the wind god, the rock god, the water god, the grass god, and the thunder god?
Xingqiu felt a deep sense of powerlessness. Linqiu, we are both named Qiu, why are you so heartless?
The only good news is that turning the page doesn't reveal a tragic scene, but rather the traveler and Abelardo's search for clues inside the restaurant.
However, Xingqiu was not happy, because She's death was inevitable, and it felt like being slowly sliced to death.
Every time I turn the page, I have to make up my mind, but after turning the page I find that the company's death hasn't come yet. It's too painful. I might as well just give it a quick death.
He was even tempted to expose himself, to just tell everyone, "I have to announce something: my handwriting is terrible!"
Unfortunately, this self-disclosure is useless. Everyone knows his handwriting is bad, and the point of his downfall isn't his bad handwriting, but the blunder in this incident.
In the story, the traveler and Abedo summarized several pieces of information, from which it can be seen that there is something wrong with Chuqiu.
Firstly, the people on the Liyue ship said their ship was rocking so much that they couldn't do anything but sleep.
This makes Xingqiu's drowsiness rather strange, unless he is exceptionally gifted and doesn't get seasick no matter how much the boat rocks, and actually read books all night.
For those who know Xingqiu, Xiangling gave him a subtle look and said, “Xingqiu, you’re bad.”
Xingqiu felt ashamed. He hadn't seen what everyone was doing, but he had heard Xiangling speak.
"I...I didn't lie on purpose." Xingqiu scratched his cheek with his index finger, clearly embarrassed.
Secondly, everyone is looking forward to the upcoming book signing event because everyone likes Mr. Zhenyu's neat and beautiful handwriting.
Xiangling noticed something was wrong earlier, and even Chongyun, who was filled with worry, felt something was off. The handwriting was neat and beautiful? Who?
Chongyun knew Xingqiu well; his handwriting, while not exactly neat and beautiful, was downright ruthless and disrespectful.
No, they do recognize his relatives. They all use his handwriting as a form of confidentiality, making it a kind of secret message.
Furthermore, Lin Qiu had previously written about Xing Qiu's "Legendary Quest," which mentioned Xing Qiu's "ghostly scribbled" letter.
So what's going on now? Xingqiu's handwriting is neat and beautiful? Could it be that Inazuma, besides having a demon clan, also has a penchant for 'ghostly scribbles' in his writing?
Compared to his good friend's successful calligraphy practice, Chongyun felt that it was more likely that Xingqiu in the story had been replaced by a 'mysterious person'.
Could it be that the person in this story is actually a con artist who transformed into 'Xingdong'?
Something's not right, and the characters in the story feel the same way. Paimon and Abedo start sharing information.
Paimon told Abedo that Xingqiu wanted to thank him because Xingqiu knew that Abedo had drawn the illustration in a very short time, and the quality of the illustration had not declined.
This statement raised questions from Abedo. Abedo, who arrived in Inazuma first, hadn't even seen the finished product yet, so how could Yukiaki, who had just arrived, know what the finished product looked like?
You have to understand that Abedo also painted the picture on the spot. It's impossible for someone to send it to Xingqiu's ship after it was printed, right?
That's not very realistic, because Teyvat didn't have GPS yet, so who knows where that ship was at the time.
My doubts only grew, but when I turned the page again, it showed a scene of everyone eating together. Xingqiu commented that Inazuma's dishes all had a fresh seafood flavor, which he liked very much.
Zhongli fell silent. Was it all fresh seafood? Inazuma...maybe we shouldn't go.
Navelette also fell silent. Was it all fresh seafood? Inatsume... let's go take a look.
However, only the two of them really cared about seafood; the others didn't care much about it. They mainly wanted to see how the travelers asked Xingqiu about it.
The traveler asked very indirect questions, mostly about Xingqiu's 'views on the journey,' 'what books she read,' 'the scenery along the way,' 'her own novel,' and 'Abedo's illustrations.'
Actually, the traveler hadn't originally intended to ask all these questions, but Lin Qiu felt that since he had already written them down, he might as well write them all down.
Xingqiu's answers to some of the questions were largely correct, while others contained significant flaws, the most obvious being the discussion about Abedo's illustrations.
Theoretically, Xingqiu shouldn't have seen the final illustration, but he answered correctly. This shows that Xingqiu must have arrived in Inazuma much earlier, otherwise he wouldn't have seen the illustrations in the book.
The traveler said sternly, "Xingqiu, why did you lie?"
If this were shown as a movie, Lin Qiu would definitely use Conan's 'repentance song' in this part; it's time for him to cry, make a scene, and kneel down.
Chapter 784 The Fox's Big Hand
Paimon reassured him, "Are you in some kind of danger that prevents you from telling the truth? Don't be afraid, both Ying and Abedor are very powerful!"
They were all very capable, but she didn't mention herself at all; Paimon had a clear self-awareness.
Xingqiu quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no, you've misunderstood! Sigh... It's all because of lack of sleep these past few days; my brain's become sluggish, and I didn't notice you've been testing me."
Seeing this, Xingqiu knew that what was bound to happen was finally coming, and Guizhong also knew what was going to happen next, secretly smiling.
Ordinary people had no idea what was coming and were wondering what Xingqiu had been doing these past few days with his lack of sleep. Could it be that he really was stealing from the warehouse at night?
Just as Xingqiu was about to explain, Wendy came in and interrupted their conversation before he could even speak.
Wendy said, "Oh, what a coincidence, you're all here."
Judging from the timing of his appearance, readers feel that it was not a "coincidence" but rather something he did intentionally.
Besides, you don't have much money on you, so why are you going to restaurants for no reason? Can you even afford to eat there? You must have some other purpose!
Wendy certainly had ulterior motives, but he also had a legitimate reason for coming here. His reason was:
"Haha, I heard the owner here has a vintage wine that's been kept for many years, so of course I have to come and try it!"
Wanting to drink fits the persona, but as I said before, do you have the money?
This is Inazuma, right? Do you think the boss would let you buy on credit?
Don't let things escalate to the point where General Lei from the movie comes to the restaurant to bail you out.
Letting Ray redeem herself... hmm... I always feel like that's something Wendy would do...
