Genshin Impact I Am a Slime Text Volume Chapter 446 The North Pier of Shuhan in the Sky is being rebuilt, and the people of Liyue are busier than usual. Liyue people who have traveled far away are returning home one after another, and the sailors at the port are also more busy than usual.
There were much more in the old days.
Some streets have returned to the bustling scene of the past. Most of the buildings on the roadside have hung red lanterns, and the hanging golden tassels are gently swaying in the wind. Children can also be seen playing and playing on the streets. Of course, some people are just
To catch up with old friends whom I haven’t seen for a long time.
Teahouses in Liyue are obviously a good place to reminisce about the past. Many teahouses have prepared exquisite pastries and steaming tea to entertain guests who have regained their lives.
But the Iwagami Teahouse did the opposite at this time. It took off the lanterns early and sealed the door with a long wooden board.
"Lord Yelan, that big shot has left."
After confirming that Famas had gone away, Wen Yuan came to the door of the private room where the two were talking and reported in a low voice.
At this time, Yelan was standing by the incense burner wearing her white sleeved Xiapei. She raised her hand to extinguish the remaining fire in the burner with the incense hood. The ends of her lake-blue hair swayed slightly, revealing curved jade earrings. p>
"I understand...Wen Yuan, this matter ends here. You must be more cautious when walking outside."
Ye Lan bent down to help up the screen that had collapsed due to the pressure of the devil. Wen Yuan, who had been worried, finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly helped his immediate boss tidy up the messy room.
However, at this moment, the Youqi wristband on Ye Lan's hand suddenly lit up with an aqua-blue light, and the light briefly stopped her and Wen Yuan's movements.
Ye Lan frowned and gently tapped the mechanism on the edge of the bracelet. The phantom of a dignified and elegant Winter Country lady appeared out of thin air. Opposite her was an elegant man with his hands covered with rings and a smile with narrowed eyes.
The two seemed to be talking about something, but as the man's eyes turned towards Ye Lan, the phantom disappeared in an instant.
"Pantarone?"
Yelan's face turned ugly. After thinking for a while, she called Wenyuan who was collecting the debris: "Leave these things to the waiter in the teahouse to clean them up. Wenyuan, go and find Shanghua and Wu Pei."<
/p>
"I'll wait for you in the secret room."
Wen Yuan, who was good at observing words and emotions, naturally noticed that Ye Lan was in a bad mood. He hurriedly put down the cup in hand and quickly left the Yanshang Teahouse through the side door, letting other secret agents inform Shang Hua and Wu Pei who were outside on a mission.
Yelan, on the other hand, played with several emerald-blue six-sided dice, came to the hanging paintings in the teahouse corridor, and inserted the dice into the hidden gaps in the paintings according to the rules.
A door and a downward passage appeared on the originally tight wall. Ye Lan stepped into the passage and gently waved to take the dice back.
On weekdays, the Iwagami Teahouse is often full of tea-goers, and it is not until late at night that all the teagoers leave. But no one knows that there is a secret room hidden under the Iwagami Teahouse.
This secret room was originally prepared for the interrogation of prisoners. The few lights came from the yellow tourmaline lamp overhead. Apart from a packed bookshelf, there was only a table and two chairs in the secret room.
But it is in this secret room that Liyue’s many dark sides are hidden.
At this time, the watcher in the shadow of Liyue, Ye Lan, was carefully examining the detailed information of Zhongli Keqing in the Hall of Rebirth, while her three subordinates, Wen Yuan, Wu Pei, and Shang Hua, stood in a row behind the chairs. Ye Lan was reading the information attentively, but the three people behind him began to chat quietly.
"Master Ye Lan, how many times has this seen Mr. Zhongli's information?"
Wu Pei lowered his voice and nudged Shang Hua with his elbow.
When receiving the gathering notice, Wu Pei was tracking a certain spy of the Fools, so he had to close the net in advance to arrest him, and then returned to the Yanshang Teahouse stronghold.
"I didn't arrive much earlier than you, so I'm going to ask Wen Yuan." Shang Hua, who was wearing black-rimmed glasses, also lowered his voice and adjusted his tone, "It seems that Zhongli is a tough guy."
Although Shang Hua paid attention to his appearance, his speech and behavior were quite loose. He looked sideways at Wu Pei, who was known for his strength, and shook his head in disgust.
"I feel that Mr. Zhongli is a very nice person. Why are we investigating him so strictly?"
Wu Pei didn't care about Shang Hua's dislike. He touched his head and poked Wen Yuan with his elbow.
"This is a daily investigation of the Seven Star collaborators to ensure that their resumes are transparent. For example, for a position like Yuethaiting's secretary, all members of the secretarial team must check the three generations of their ancestors."
Wen Yuan explained helplessly in a low voice, and kept winking at the two of them.
Didn't these two guys see that Lord Yelan was in a bad mood? Why are they talking here?
But because Ye Lan had his back to the three of them, Shang Hua and Wu Pei obviously didn't see their immediate boss's face clearly.
"Generally speaking, undercover agents pretend to be inconspicuous or approachable so that they will not be suspected."
"Have you ever seen an undercover agent who is serious and cold all day long, independent and wary of everyone? Doesn't this mean that he has the word "spy" written on his head? That kind of guy can only be found in Wanwen Jishe.
”
Shang Hua glanced at Wu Pei, and Wu Pei nodded in recognition.
"Yes, I think truly powerful intelligence agents can disguise themselves with a completely different look from their real selves. What we see is just one of their thousands of faces. Their ruthlessness only shows up when facing the enemy.
Revealed."
"So, you understand very well."
Shang Hua pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled.
"Of course, I understand it very well!"
Wu Pei raised his head proudly, but met Ye Lan's teasing look.
"Ye...Lord Yelan!"
"Do you really think I'm deaf when you speak so loudly?" Yelan snorted softly, "There is a big problem with the intelligence you two collected, haven't you discovered it?"
"Hey?!"
The three of them picked up the information Ye Lan put on the table and looked at it head to head. Ye Lan crossed her legs and looked at the light above her head, wondering what she was thinking.
"I have investigated all the partners of the Rebirth Hall. This information is theoretically very detailed, right?"
Shang Hua frowned, held his chin, and murmured softly.
"Wait a minute." Wen Yuan seemed to have discovered something, pointing to the time data on the intelligence and said: "There seems to be something wrong with the time of these intelligences?"
"Not bad."
Ye Lan tapped her fingers lightly on the table with a look of approval on her face.
"This Mr. Zhongli has been a guest since he joined the Palace of Purity ten years ago. His resume over the years is clear and very detailed. He can even specify what kind of tea he likes to drink, what kind of plays he likes to listen to, and when he goes out to walk with birds. But..."<
/p>
Ye Lan narrowed her eyes and slightly restrained the sharp gaze in her green eyes.
"When the time point moved further back, there were large gaps in his resume, and there was no obvious timeline at all. Moreover, this part of the material... Oh, most of it came from Zhongli's autobiography that others had heard.
, and the other part is all based on lies and has no basis at all."
"It's as if Zhongli as a person, or rather as an identity, was not really born until the moment he stepped into the Hall of Purity and gave his name."
"Then what kind of identity did he live with before this?"
Glancing at the silent Shang Hua, Ye Lan shook his head, looked at Wen Yuan who was a little gloating about his misfortune, and his voice became serious.
"Also, Wenyuan, I asked you to go to Qingce Village to investigate Tianshu Star. How is the situation?"
Mentioning Tianshu, one of the Seven Stars of Liyue, Wen Yuan seemed to have regained the rigor that an intelligence officer should have. He took out the compiled information from his arms and placed it in front of Ye Lan.
"Lord Yelan, according to my investigation, Tianshu Star is also among the resurrected soldiers. I also asked some Qianyan Army soldiers and they all witnessed Tianshu Star resurrecting from the ashes..."
"But when I asked Tianshuxing's sister Yundan, she showed obvious resistance and cover-up behavior, and several of my informants also filmed Tianshuxing having sex with a man named Zhiyi two days ago.
Photos of young students fishing by the clear water river."
As Wen Yuan explained, he took out several photos included in the intelligence. On them were Uncle Tian, who was holding a fishing rod and with white hair and beard, and Zhi Yi, who was wearing a Fontaine-style white round hat and slanted bangs.<
/p>
The two people in the photo seemed to be talking happily about something, but it was obvious that Uncle Tian's figure was thinner than before, and his originally strong back was also a little rickety.
"So I think Uncle Tian is just old... and no longer wants to fulfill his role as Tianshu Star."
Wen Yuan explained the final conclusion of the investigation, but Ye Lan discovered some strange details from Uncle Tian's posture in the photo.
Tianshu Xing comes from a martial arts family and has been exercising since he was a child. Even at this age, his body is extremely strong, even stronger than some Qianyan Army soldiers who neglect to exercise.
It’s only been less than half a month, how can you grow old so fast?
Yelan comes from a declining alchemy family. She carefully compared the posture of Tianshu Xing in the photo, and suddenly had an ominous premonition. She issued a mission to the three people behind her with a cold face:
"Wu Pei, Wen Yuan, next it's your turn to collect information about Zhongli, focusing on the time period before he joined the Rebirth Hall."
"Shang Hua, go investigate that student named Zhi Yi...find out all about his life, especially his financial transactions and interpersonal relationships in the past two years."
The three people who received the new mission left in response. Ye Lan stood up and looked at the time displayed on the water clock. She took the information collected by Wen Yuan and headed towards Yiyan Palace, preparing to report the situation on Tianshu Star to Ningguang.
