Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

"Go and kill those two murderers and fulfill the contract between me and Huanian."

The flattering man still succeeded in scheming against Shao Yun, and all of them were facts, but they were misinterpreted.

But he did not back down or give in. He took a deep breath and calmed himself.

There must be a way. The devil can misinterpret the meaning, so can I!

The key point is on the K. The devil misinterpreted the meaning as 13, but what he drew was the K of Diamonds!

"Although I drew the K, I drew the K of diamonds! The person on it is 'Gaius Julius Caesar', not the thirteenth person! Your trick failed!"

As soon as Shao Yun finished speaking, the smile on the man in the tall hat disappeared instantly.

Its eyes became solemn and deep, as if it was shocked by Shao Yun's wisdom. It nodded and said calmly: "Okay, you are slightly better."

At this moment, Shao Yun felt as if he had been pulled back to reality from the brink of death. He knew that he had successfully broken the devil's trick and protected himself!

"You win, and your answer satisfies me. I won't bother Ying and Paimon anymore, but I still hope you can accept the commission to deal with those two murderers. I can fulfill any of your wishes."

Shao Yun was riding on the horse and heard the devil's commission. Who knew that he was plotting against him from time to time.

So he rejected the tempting offer.

"I refuse. I finally beat you, and I don't want to get myself into more trouble!"

The man in the tall hat lowered his head slightly, as if thinking about something, and then sighed softly.

"Okay, I respect your decision."

Shao Yun tightened the reins, ready to leave this troubled place.

"I'm leaving. You have no reason to keep me this time."

However, at this moment, the tall hat man suddenly extinguished the fire and said in a low voice: "You really don't want to know what Hua Nian didn't finish saying before he died? I can tell you for free."

Shao Yun turned around and looked at the man in the tall hat, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes: "Are you sure? You won't lie?"

The man in the top hat nodded and said firmly: "I won't lie. This is the prize I give you."

Shao Yun hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "Go ahead."

The man in the tall hat began to speak slowly.

"You are a kind-hearted person, but you are shrouded in the shadow of the past. She hopes that you can look into your heart and find the true and kind self."

Shao Yun was silent for a moment after hearing this, then turned his horse around and prepared to leave: "I feel that these are your words, not hers. I didn't expect that your prize was full of calculations against me."

The man in the top hat smiled and shook his head.

"Believe it or not, you are indeed angry and sad about Miss Huanian's death. Although you rejected my commission, deep down in your heart you still want to avenge her. The contract between Miss Huanian and me has been destroyed by your own hands. If you want to kill her, go ahead."

Shao Yun didn't look back, but said coldly: "I don't even believe the punctuation marks in what you said!"

After saying this, he spurred his horse and disappeared into the night.

The man in the top hat led the donkey slowly away from the field, leaving behind only a few words that echoed in the wind.

"Enjoy your victory, I'm sure we'll meet again!"

……

Under the deep night sky, Shao Yun rode his horse and galloped along the road leading to Liyue Harbor.

His face was full of resentment, like dark clouds covering the stars.

"System, get out here!"

As he shouted, a translucent interface appeared out of thin air. It was his system page.

Although Shao Yun had just defeated the devil, the words spoken by the devil, like sharp thorns, pierced deeply into his heart.

"Who am I? Tell me the truth! Why can't I remember my past self? Am I really Arthur Morgan? Or someone else?"

The system is silent for a moment, then a prompt pops up.

[You forget thousands of things every day, why not forget this one too? ]

When Shao Yun saw this, his anger grew even stronger. He understood that the system was trying to persuade him to give up the pursuit of the truth, but he was unwilling to do so.

He suddenly spat out a mouthful of saliva and cursed viciously: "I really want to kill you, this piece of code. Is there an uninstall function?"

The system seemed to sense his anger. The interface trembled slightly, and then a new prompt popped up.

[You have been issued a sawed-off shotgun. ]

Shao Yun looked at these words and shook his head helplessly.

He understood that the system was trying to appease him, or to shut him up.

"Use a weapon to block my mouth? That's all you can do!"

……

Shao Yun did not rest all night. The next day, at noon, when the sun was scorching hot, Shao Yun finally arrived at Liyue Harbor.

He dismounted and looked at the prosperous port city, feeling an indescribable excitement in his heart.

Although the bastard system made him angry, he succeeded and defeated the devil!

Everything is getting better!

Shao Yun returned to his room in the inn, lay on the recliner, and felt the joy welling up from the bottom of his heart.

He won, he really won! All he had to do next was to fulfill his promise to Huanian, and then the flatterer would have no room for maneuver.

"I beat that devil! I'm so happy!" Shao Yun said excitedly, his voice full of pride and satisfaction.

He pulled out a bottle of fine brandy, ready to celebrate his victory.

Just then, there was a gentle knock on the door.

Shao Yun raised his head, looked towards the door, and asked in confusion: "Who is it?"

"I've brought what you want. Open the door!" A familiar voice came. It was Ye Lan.

Shao Yun quickly stood up, walked over and opened the door. Ye Lan was standing at the door smiling, holding a sealed file bag in her hand.

"This is the information about Miss Huanian that you wanted." Ye Lan said and handed the file bag to Shao Yun.

Shao Yun stretched out his hand and took the file bag steadily, gently stroking the surface of the bag with his fingers, as if he could feel the thickness and detail of the information inside.

"Thank you."

Ye Lan accepted Shao Yun's thanks, but she noticed that Shao Yun had no intention of inviting her in, so she took the initiative to speak.

"Why don't you invite me in and have a cup of tea? Although this is compensation, it's very rude to let someone stand at the door all the time."

Ye Lan was testing Shao Yun's reaction. If he showed displeasure, she would leave immediately!

But Shao Yun was in a particularly good mood because he had just defeated that damned demon. He turned sideways and made way.

"You're right, then please come in." His voice was full of confidence and calmness, as if everything was under his control.

Ye Lan walked into the room, and an antique scent hit her face.

She looked around and saw several landscape paintings hanging on the wall and tea sets on the table. The whole room was full of tranquility and elegance. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "It is indeed the best room, it is really unique."

Ye Lan's eyes wandered around the room, as if looking for something.

"Where's your girlfriend Ying?"

Shao Yun poured her a glass of water, pointed out the window and said, "She's out there taking risks."

Ye Lan took the cup of water, took a sip, and then sat down on the chair gracefully.

Shao Yun sat on the other side of the table, flipping through the documents in his hand page by page.

“I finished collecting information the day before yesterday, but I found a lot of interesting things!”

Ye Lan began to explain her process of finding information.

"I investigated further and found something puzzling. On the day that Miss Huanian died, Huachu, the second daughter of the owner of Minghua Chamber of Commerce, unexpectedly suffered the same fate - she committed suicide by jumping into a well. However, what's even more strange is that the Wangsheng Hall only recorded the receipt of one body."

She paused slightly and took another sip of water to moisten her dry throat.

"Tell me, how can this corpse have two identities?" Ye Lan's eyes were full of doubts. "Moreover, from the General Affairs Department to the Hall of Rebirth, no one has raised any questions at all."

Shao Yun moved his gaze away from the information and looked at Ye Lan, with not much expression on his face.

"So, what did you find?"

Ye Lan smiled slightly and narrated the whole context of the incident.

"I was very curious, was it Miss Huanian or Miss Huachu who died? After some investigation, I got some interesting information. The waiter at Wangshu Inn said that a month and a half ago, Miss Huachu and a teacher named Jianqiu had eaten noodles there, and then went north."

Shao Yun put down the document and asked, "Isn't Jianqiu an employee of Minghua Chamber of Commerce?"

When Ye Lan heard Shao Yun describe Jian Qiu like this, she said with contempt, "No, he is just a teacher who eats tiger rocks. I heard that he teaches very poorly, but he is good at talking. People in Minghua Chamber of Commerce don't think highly of him."

Shao Yun nodded, and his attention was focused again on the information in his hand.

Ye Lan put down the cup of water in her hand, and her tone became more serious.

"There is one more thing. In fact, the biggest problem here is that there are two dead people, but there is only one body. It is such a strange place. I checked it out. Do you know who is secretly helping Hua Chu and Jian Qiu?"

Shao Yun shook his head, and his eyes focused on Ye Lan's face again.

Ye Lan held up two fingers.

"It was an officer named Xiao Fang from the General Affairs Department of Liyue, and a male attendant named Bai from the Wangsheng Hall. These two people were involved in Huanian's affairs, and they both seemed to have made a lot of money recently. I think Huanian's death is not simple!"

Just then, Shao Yun finished reading the last page of information and felt that Ye Lan was indeed capable.

"The information you found is really exhaustive. You even found out everything about the two people I let go. And I can tell you that those two people did kill Hua Nian and then ran away."

Ye Lan looked into Shao Yun's eyes. She had anticipated this and had prepared a detailed plan.

"If you want to avenge Miss Huanian, I suggest..."

Shao Yun smiled faintly when he heard this and said, "I'm sorry to disappoint you. I don't plan to get involved in this mess anymore."

Ye Lan looked at him in confusion.

"Why? I've even prepared an action plan!"

Ye Lan was a little excited, but she immediately realized that her voice was a little loud, and immediately explained incoherently.

"I think you are a person with a strong sense of justice. I hope you can help me. Of course, this is just a suggestion. If you don't want to do it, I won't force you to do it... Well, this is a good excuse to reorganize the General Affairs Department."

Shao Yun was not angry as Ye Lan expected, but changed the subject.

"That's your Liyue's internal affairs. But having said that, I do have something I'd like to ask you for help with."

Ye Lan nodded and asked, "What's the matter?"

Shao Yun told his plan.

"I plan to pay out 80 million Mora from my own pocket. I hope you can use this money in the name of the Liyue General Affairs Department to ensure that Huanian's two children can grow up healthily. If anyone dares to embezzle even a penny..."

Ye Lan didn't understand what he meant. One second she said she didn't want to care about Huanian's affairs, but the next second she wanted to give Huanian's child 80 million Mora. It was really strange.

If Hua Nian had not died two months ago, Ye Lan would have suspected that Shao Yun had killed him.

It’s not that Shao Yun doesn’t care about Huanian, but he must avoid unintentionally facilitating that devil’s contract!

"Don't worry, I will take care of this matter. As for the reason, I won't ask any more questions."

Ye Lan also figured it out, just do it, don't ask why. It's not good to know too much about some things.

……

In the finance room of the General Affairs Department, Ye Lan's eyes lingered on the piles of Mora for a moment. A playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she muttered, "Eighty million Mora is taken as soon as I say it. How arrogant."

"Remember my words, if you dare to covet even one Mora..."

Ye Lan raised her head, met Shao Yun's gaze, nodded, and said, "I understand, you will make Liyue a river of blood. But don't worry, if you have the life to make money, you naturally have to have the life to spend it. No one in Liyue is so brave as to do this."

Shao Yun thought that everything was over now, the man in the flattering hat had failed and he had won completely!
