Genshin Impact: Zhongli discovered that he was stealing tributes at the beginning

"Phew, finally we're here."

Breaking through the thunderstorm off the coast of Inazuma, the Death Star finally arrived at the port. Several beautiful islands appeared in front of Sora and Rocky.

As darkness approached, the fish lanterns at the port glowed brightly. Beidou got off the boat first, then turned around and called for Sora and Paimon to follow her and get off the boat.

"Aren't you going to get off the boat?" Sora looked at Rocky who was standing next to Manyo. He knew that Manyo was still a wanted criminal of Inazuma, so he couldn't get off the boat and show up.

"Haha, go ahead, I'm going to another place." Rocky put his head behind his hands and smiled.

"Where is it?" Paimon also looked here curiously.

"Haiji Island, my master recommended me to go there."

"Oh, it was recommended by Wu Ye, okay then, we will go find you then." In the more than half a month since they arrived at Daozhi from Liyue Port, the relationship between Kong and Luo Ji has also developed into friends.

"Goodbye." Rocky waved.

"Goodbye." Wan Ye also waved.

"Okay, we can't stay here for too long. Time is of the essence. Sora and Paimon come over. Someone is waiting for us." Beidou urged.

"Who is it..." Paimon just said, in front of them, a young man who seemed to have been waiting for a long time came up to him immediately.

"It's finally here. The eldest sister of Liyue people, please let me wait." The young man is tall, has green eyes and medium-length golden hair, and will break out into a warm smile when he speaks.

He said hello to Beidou first, then looked at Sora and Paimon, "And these two stowaways...oh no, distinguished guests."

"Shh!" Paimon quickly raised his index finger in front of his small mouth and looked around nervously. Fortunately, there were few people at the port at night, so no one else noticed the young man's words.

Beidou folded his arms and shouted, "It's not because of your general, the recent thunderstorms and waves off the coast of Inazuma have become stronger than before..."

"Although my fleet showed off its skills, it still lost some time."

"Oh, by the way, let me introduce you to him. This is Toma, a business partner I have only recently become familiar with." She formally introduced Sora and Paimon.

Toma stretched out his hand and waved, "Yo, I've been looking forward to seeing you."

"Thomas, these two are..."

Before Beidou finished speaking, Toma smiled and shook his head and said: "No introduction is needed. The reputation of a traveler in a foreign land cannot be stopped by the storms on the outer sea. It has already been like thunder."

Hearing this, Sora nodded politely, "Hello, Thomas."

Paimon put his little hands behind his back and said happily: "You speak so nicely, hehe."

"Well, this is convenient." Beidou nodded, and then said to the sky, "Traveler, Thomas has been hanging out on the outlying islands for a long time. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a local snake here."

"If you have any trouble, just go to him, but if he has evil intentions against you... I will stand up for you next time I come to Inazuma."

Toma laughed at Beidou's joke, "Hahaha... don't worry, I have a feeling we will get along very happily."

"It's almost time. After all, there's a wanted criminal hiding on my ship, so it's not convenient for me to stay for a long time."

"See you next time, traveler. No matter what stormy waves you encounter in Inazuma, you must survive it for me!" Beidou said seriously.

"I'm looking forward to meeting you next time!" Sora said goodbye to Beidou.

Paimon also waved: "Bye and have a safe journey, Captain Beidou."

Beidou left...

"Then, let's go to the inspection station to register first." Thomas took the initiative.

Paimon was stunned for a moment, "Hey, are you going to face the officials of Inazuma directly? Don't you mean secretly..."

Thomas smiled: "Haha, don't underestimate the national lockdown order. You can't avoid the identity check."

"So we have to behave properly...and handle the irregular things."

Sora and Paimon followed Toma and started walking towards the first stop of their rice wife journey - the outlying island.

The islands soaked in red maples look like small boats floating quietly on the water waves. Against the backdrop of the towering Yingxiang Mountain in the distance, the minor tune of "Sakura" and the sound of strings sounded in my ears. I looked at the Japanese-style buildings far and near, and felt the waves rise and fall in the hollow...

He suddenly realized that he had not asked his sister whether the first stop was the outlying island when she came to Daozhi before.

While Sora was wandering around the world, Toma, who was walking in front of him, used his peripheral vision to observe Sora from time to time. In fact, his identity was not just as simple as "a local snake on an outlying island" as Beidou said.

Toma's true identity is the valet of Inazuma Narukami Island Shrine, who worships Kamisato Ayaka, the eldest daughter of the Kamisato family. He came to the remote island to confirm whether Sora has the ability to change the current situation as rumored.

The three of them arrived at the monitoring station. Yinshan, who was registering information for outsiders, raised his head and said, "Hello, please tell us your identities and purpose of landing on the island. Mr. Toma doesn't need to."

"You are...completely unfamiliar faces." Yinshan stared at Sora and Paimon warily.

Paimon was in trouble and rubbed his chin with his hand, "Well..."

Yinshan's vigilant eyes turned into scrutiny, "What's wrong? Please tell me the detailed information of the two of you, and whether there is any accompanying cargo..."

Kong glanced at Toma and found that the other party showed no sign of helping them cover up. He pondered for a while.

Well, let's do...the wine and ore business. "

Yinshan's eyes suddenly sharpened, "Really? Currently, only merchants from the Chamber of Commerce of All Nations are allowed to conduct this kind of import and export business. Do you two have business permission from the Chamber of Commerce?"

Paimon scratched his face, "Ah, I, we..."

Yinshan had no expression on his face, "Sorry, I'd better ask you two..."

"This is the document for the two of you to land on the island. Please take a look at it." Thomas suddenly took out two diplomas.

"Hey! Take it out earlier!" Paimon put his hands on his hips and was so angry that he couldn't beat him.

Thomas said sheepishly: "Haha, I just wanted to see how you were going to deal with it. I'm sorry."

Yinshan took the document and looked at it carefully, "...Hmm, that's it. There is nothing wrong with the document. Welcome to the outlying island."

"Huh... where should we go next?" Paimon looked at Thomas.

"Director of the Far Country Supervisor." Thomas said without hesitation, "This is just for checking the permission to land on the island. If you want to stay on the outlying island, you have to go to the Supervisor of the Far Country to complete the stay procedures."

"Hmm...it's really strict." Paimon sighed.

"After all, in Inazuma, foreigners are called 'foreigners'." Toma spread his hands.

"It can also be seen from the words that under the lockdown, foreigners are not so welcome."

"This is true even on outlying islands with 'alien settlements'."

"There's nothing you can do about it if you're not popular...the journey still has to move forward." Kong raised his eyes and looked at Ying Xiangshan in the distance.

"Haha, I like your consciousness. We will definitely get along very well." Thomas agreed.

"Let's go to the Yuanguo Supervisory Office."

"Most of these rules are set by the outlying island's long-time manager - the administrator."

"Is the decision implemented?" Paimon asked again like a curious baby.

"One of Inazuma's three professions, she is mainly responsible for earning and managing the country's wealth. Huh? Haven't you heard of it?"

Sora and Paimon accompanied Thomas to the Far Country Prison to complete the formalities.

"Have you gone through the procedures for landing on the island? Do you need to go through the procedures for staying on the island? You two?" When staff member Lily Hua saw Paimon, she was thinking about whether he was Kong's pet.

Paimon nodded vigorously: "Both of you!"

Paimon's answer suited Lily Flower, "Okay, please pay the handling fee, two million molas."

"Two million! Do you need two million to go through the formalities?!" Paimeng opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief.

"Well, one million per person, so it's two million. Don't worry, I didn't make a mistake."

"It's not a question of whether the calculation is wrong...well..."

When Sora and Paimon were struggling, Toma smiled and said: "Hahaha... Miss, these two are my friends. Look, do I look familiar to you?"

"It's you, Mr. Toma. For your sake, four hundred thousand molas will be enough."

"That's a bit expensive..." Kong felt that the other party was ripping off customers.

"Thank you so much, Miss Lily Flower. But in my opinion, as for the handling fee... six hundred molas is enough. I'll pay for them and treat you to a meal. How about it?" Thomas's mouth was filled with bright sunshine. smile.

Paimon blinked, "Is there such a bargain? No matter what, it's too..."

"Okay, let's rely on Mr. Toma. I'll register." Facing Toma's gentle gaze, Lily Hua's face turned red.

"Hey, thanks for taking care of me."
