Genshin Impact: After completing the mission, I became the group favorite

the other side.

After Watling told Alex what had happened, he was informed that Lord Villette had returned, bringing some Melusine with him.

After briefly explaining the situation, I was finally able to get away.

He changed into some very old clothes and went to Gray River.

It was just as I arrived at Huihe that I was approached by someone.

"Hey, isn't this our police officer? Why did you come to Gray River? Are you here to catch a criminal?"

A man came over and put a hand on Watling's shoulder and asked.

Watling glanced at the hand on his shoulder and said.

"It's after get off work now, so I'm not allowed to come here for a walk?"

"Ha, allowed, allowed, hahahahaha, then officer, please turn slowly!"

Having said that, the man smiled and withdrew his hand, then prepared to leave with his companions.

"Wait, you want to leave after asking questions? Don't you plan to give anything?" Watling stood there and looked at them.

The man who was about to leave suddenly stiffened and slowly turned around.

"What do you want to do, officer?" He asked with an embarrassed smile on his face.

Watling walked over and put his hand on his shoulder.

The man looked at the arm he had extended to him, swallowed, and then looked at Watling.

"I just want to ask something. I told you that I'm off work now, so just put your work aside."

As Watling spoke, he took out a small bag wrapped in coarse cloth from his pocket and stuffed it into his hand.

"Here's some candy for you. Take it and sweeten your mouth."

The man looked down and subconsciously shook his hands apart.

Then quickly put it away.

"Whatever you want to ask, I will tell you as long as I know it!"

His face also changed into a flattering smile.

"How much do you know about Alex?"

When the man heard that this was what he was asking, his face froze.

"Sir, many people have come to ask about this every day, including the guards. As an lord, you should know everything. We have told you what we know, and you can't make up things you don't know."

"I know, but, do none of you really know who Alex's parents are?"

Watling asked.

The expression on the man's face changed for a moment, then quickly adjusted.

"We really don't know. We only know that one day, he suddenly appeared in Gray River."

Watling kept staring at him.

"What I gave you should be quite a bit, why don't you tell me?" Watling raised his eyebrows and slowly tightened his hand around his shoulders.

The man's expression changed.

"This..." As he said this, he looked around and saw that there was no one around except one of his companions.

There was no corner to hide, so he said quickly and quietly.

"Go inside and find a man named Lao Rang. Tell him that Paopaoju asked you to find him."

After saying that, he quickly spoke loudly.

"Sir, I really don't know, please don't embarrass me!"

Watling withdrew his hand with satisfaction and patted his shoulder.

"Okay, forget it if you don't know. I'll go inside and take a look around."

After saying that, he left and walked inside.

The man watched him walk inside and breathed a sigh of relief.

The man's companion also came over.

"Hey! How much did you cheat this time?"

"Not much," the man said.

"But why did you change your code this time? Wasn't it Pumbaamon before? Why did it become Bubble Orange this time?" the man's companion asked in confusion.

"Oops, you heard it wrong. I was talking about Pumbaamon. You must want to eat Bubble Orange." The man quickly covered up and said, "Okay, stop asking. I'll treat you to a big dinner tonight."

"Oh, if you have a big meal, I'll kill you!"

Watling went in and asked someone at random, and he found out where "Old Jean" was.

He ran over and saw an old-looking man, hunched over, sitting at a table, with no one around him.

"Are you 'Old Jean'?" Watling walked over and asked.

I also saw that this person looked to be in his forties or fifties.

He glanced at Watling.

"I remember you. You were very close to that kid Alex," said Lao Jean.

"Just remember this. I'm here to ask something. Bubble Orange asked me to come here," Watling said.

After hearing this, Lao Rang smiled.

"I knew that the bastard would say that."

"Just ask whatever you want to know. I didn't tell Alex when he asked me before," said Lao Rang.

"The first question is about Alex's parents' background, and the second question is why." Watling said, sitting down in the empty chair.

And it just happened to be opposite Lao Jean.

"Regarding the first question, I don't know much. His father, the man he killed, was a crazy gambler.

I don't know his mother either, but I'm sure she was a noblewoman.

As for his background, his father saved the runaway daughter of a noble family when he was adventuring outside, and they fell in love with each other. However, when they came back, the noble's daughter was pregnant, and his father locked up his mother just to get more money for gambling and then go on adventures outside.

Later, while asking for money, his father killed his mother. He was about one year old at the time.

The nobleman and his father threatened each other and neither of them gave in.

Finally, the nobles took him away, and his father temporarily left Fontaine, and the matter was kept secret by both parties. He was then thrown into the Grey River, and I happened to be nearby at the time and saw it. "

Lao Rang said this while drinking tea.

“As for why I told you, I didn’t tell him.

First, when you asked, it was no longer a secret and I could tell it. Also, you gave me generous money and you are the captain of a special patrol team. I don't want to go to jail. It would be great to live a carefree life outside!

The second is that when he asked, I couldn't tell him. I still have a sense of contract. I received a large sum of hush money, so I must keep it secret!"

Watling frowned when he heard his words, so, what happened that made him choose to kill his father?

"I have a question. How did you know? From what you said, you just saw them abandoning the child, but why do you know it so clearly?"

Watling said, looking at "Old Jean"

Lao Rang took a sip of tea slowly and then said.

"Because I have seen him, his father. I met Alex's father and I at a drinking table. Who knew it was him at the time? He was so drunk, and then he told me about this, and he was still upset that he didn't get enough money.

If that nobleman hadn't come to my house the next day to threaten me and told me not to tell anyone, I wouldn't have known it!"
