Chapter 13: Diplomat

Fontaine, Opéra Opécle.

"Now, first of all, let us welcome Lady Funina, the Water Goddess!"

As the host on stage exclaimed, the atmosphere of the entire opera house was heightened.

Funina on the water god's throne smiled lightly and waved in response.

At the VIP table on the second floor, a man who was not an aristocrat but behaved like an aristocrat was looking for his seat.

Yixi held the ticket given by Funina and looked around, and finally sat down in the central seat.

"This location is really good. Funina is quite interesting."

Cross your legs and feel the feeling. The comfortable classic red sofa has a wide field of view, giving you a panoramic view of the audience.

I don’t know what will be played this time that will interest Fu Nina and drag me along.

But what made Yixi look forward to more was the identity of the mysterious person sitting with him.

This kind of seat is more than enough for two or three people. Of course, if you like the spaciousness, you can sit alone.

When he got the ticket, Yixi learned that someone was sitting with him, but there was no information about that person.

At that time, Yixi was wondering if it might actually be Fu Nina, but now that she is on the water god's seat, there is no need to hide it from me.

Whatever, I’ll find out later. I’m a little curious just thinking about it. I wonder who Funina will arrange for me to go with?

At this time, a slow-paced sound of high heels came from far and near. It was coming.

Recalling the past without looking back retains a sense of mystery, and the truth is often exciting when it is revealed in the end.

"Huh? This gentleman is a bit unfamiliar."

Hearing this voice, Yixi was stunned and turned around in surprise:

"Arecchino?!"

Yi Xi's eyes were full of shock, and he never expected that the person coming was actually the fourth executive officer of the Winter Fools - [Servant]

Looking up at Funina, she glanced here, then shrank back, and couldn't see her anymore...

"I didn't expect that sir would know this name. It seems that he is not just a general person."

Her professional fake smile did not show her true emotions. Arecino sat beside Yi Xi gracefully, the red cross in his eyes lit up for a moment:

"Yes, I am a diplomat from Winter Solstice. Arecino, who is your Excellency?"

"My name reminds me of the past, a diplomat from outside the world. I was the meteor that hit Momang Palace two days ago."

Hearing this, Arecino became wary, that mysterious golden dragon?

Arecino also read the reports from the past two days. According to the intelligence, he learned that after that, there was indeed one more permanent member of staff at Momang Palace, and it turned out to be you.

Diplomats from the Outer Worlds... Putting aside their authenticity, there is currently very little information about Yi Xi, and if there is, it is irrelevant.

The first thing Arecino thought of was that Yixi deliberately made these useless actions to confuse the eyes in the dark. He was a smart man.

Now that we have the opportunity to talk alone, let's see if we can get anything out of it.

Yixi, on the other hand, was thinking about how to settle the score with Funina after returning, and she actually pushed someone she didn't want to deal with onto me.

"I am a diplomat from another country in name, but actually Fontaine is my hometown, and I am very happy to make friends like you. Where is Mr. Yi?"

"I'm not very happy. Until now, I'm in debt for destroying Momang Palace. Since we are all friends, how about you help me pay it back?"

Yixi asked Arlecino, "Unexpectedly, the person sitting with you is not Funina but me!"

I have nothing to do with you, nor do I want to, and it would be best if our conversation could stop here.

Arecino glanced at Yixi calmly, "What's wrong with this guy? He has basically no words, and his polite words are very serious."

"As far as I know, Momang Palace did not cause any actual damage, so how much does Mr. Yi owe Mo La?"

Yixi put his hand on his forehead and sighed deeply, looking very sad:

"Hey - one million molas. You said I just came to Teyvat and am unfamiliar with the place. Where did I get so many molas?"

"It's indeed a bit difficult. After all, one million molas is not a small amount. I understand."

Hearing this Yixi was stunned for a moment, what do you understand? What do you understand?

Are you really going to help me pay off my debt?

joke.

Women in the world have always avoided men who not only have no money but are also in debt.

"Speaking of which, is there any reason why Mr. Yiyi and Miss Funina are present together today?"

"Oh, Funina saw that I was handsome, so she picked me up when we were walking together on the street to show respect. Please tell me how indecent it is for this majestic god of the country to covet male sex."

In line with Yixi's words, Arecino nodded from time to time, planning to change the question:

"Mr. Yi, your appearance is indeed outstanding. I heard earlier that your devout prayers to the statue of the Seven Heavens attracted a response from the Lord Water God. Is it true?"

"That's what you're talking about. In fact, I was just wandering around outside, and Fu Nina asked me to go back for dinner through the statue."

"..."

Arecino was silent for a moment, you really don't want to deal with this... You're so welcome. Sure enough, Funina chose to let you come for a reason.

"It turns out that facts are often very common, but you mentioned prophecies during the interview. What do you think of the prophecies that have been circulated in Fontainebleau?"

Yixi smiled at this, he must be a professional diplomat, and his words are easy to listen to.

But since you really want to contribute to Fontaine, I’ll give you some news. Lie back and open your hands:

"I don't care. The original seawater can only kill the Fontaine people. I'm not a Fontaine person, so what should I be afraid of?"

Alechino's eyes changed for a moment. Why are you suddenly willing to tell me, and it's what I've always wanted to investigate.

Is it really such a coincidence?

I understand. You want to tell me that you know all the things I did overtly and secretly. Sure enough, you were pretending just now.

But why are you suddenly not acting now? Do you think I'm not a threat to you at all...

It doesn't matter. Just say whatever you want to say. I don't know how much you are willing to tell me.

"Original fetal sea water? It sounds scary. Can you elaborate on it?"

"It just makes the Fontaine people who touch it melt into a ball of water immediately, and it is limited to the Fontaine people, that's all."

Yi Xi took out a folding fan with a leisurely look on his face and fanned it. His lazy sitting posture made him occupy the position of two people.

Alechino didn't know about the original fetal sea water, so he secretly investigated. So he took this opportunity to see if he could ask more questions:

"Why is it limited to the Fontaine people?"

Yi Xi closed the folding fan and pointed it directly into Alechino's eyes:

"Because you have been born with original sin, this is all I know."

Yi Xi stood up and stretched, looking at the vivid performances below the stage, which seemed to be coming to an end soon.

"Oh, by the way, there's something else I'll let you know."

"What is it?"

After saying that, Yi Xi put one hand on the backrest next to Alecino and gave him a 'sofa bang', then slowly approached:

"The heart of God is not with Fernina, so there's no need to have any bad thoughts about her. Besides, it's a pleasure to chat with you. If there's a chance, please say hello to Her Majesty the Queen on my behalf. I'll leave first."

As soon as Yi Xi approached, Alecino could have dodged and counterattacked, but she didn't. Instead, she smiled and said:

"Well, me too. Please say hello to the Lord of Water on my behalf."

After Yi Xi left, Alecino, who was still there, sorted out his thoughts for a long time but couldn't figure out what Yi Xi was doing.

It's really not simple. Fortunately, he didn't show any hostility, otherwise it would be a headache.

At this time, Fernina on the high platform was lying on the railing and looking at this scene in surprise. Wow, Yi Xi is so strong!

And what did they say? I'll go back and ask Yi Xi.
