Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

As the sun sets, the afterglow shines on the pier of the outlying island port, giving everything a warm golden edge.

In response to Thomas's greeting, Shao Yun waved his hand gently, with a look of indifference in his eyes.

"No need to exchange pleasantries. What is our schedule going to be like next?"

Thomas smiled slightly and pointed his finger gently at a wooden shed deep in the harbor, the next destination, the "Offshore Island Checkpoint".

"Next, we have to go to the checkpoint to register." Fearing that Shao Yun would suddenly come up with some inexplicable ideas, he added, "You may not know that the enforcement of this lockdown order is very strict. Identity verification is a must. It's difficult to bypass it."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun curled up a meaningful smile.

"Difficult doesn't mean impossible." His words were concise and powerful, hinting something to Thomas.

Thomas' heart tightened when he heard this. He quickly swallowed and tried to make his smile look more natural.

"Alas, Mr. Shao Yun, why are you doing this? If we follow the rules, we can not only save a lot of unnecessary troubles, but also ensure the smoothness of our journey."

"I know you are not afraid of difficulties and obstacles, but if this affects the mood of you and your companions, wouldn't it be a loss?"

As he spoke, he gave Shao Yun a knowing look, implying something.

Shao Yun turned his head slightly and his eyes fell on Ying who was standing beside him.

He also understood what Thomas's eyes meant. If you don't consider yourself, you should consider the girl next to you.

"Well, Thomas, you're right. Let's just follow the rules and not give ourselves unnecessary trouble."

Afterwards, Thomas brought Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng and walked steadily to the checkpoint of the outlying island port.

Standing in the wooden shed was Miss Inyama, a serious-looking person dressed in neat Inazuma-style clothing.

Standing in front of the inspection table, examining every outsider who passes by.

When she saw Thomas and his group, Miss Yinshan's mouth curled up slightly, obviously she was not unfamiliar with Thomas.

She followed the established procedure and said politely but with dignity, "Hello, everyone. Please tell us your identities and purpose of landing on the island. Of course, Mr. Thomas doesn't need to tell us."

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun turned sideways to look at Thomas, gently extended his finger, pointed at the table on the examination table, and signaled Thomas' next action.

Thomas didn't have the leisure to test the three people's ability to respond quickly as in the original plot. Without any hesitation, he quickly took out three sets of procedures for landing on the island that he had prepared long ago.

"Ms. Yinshan, I have the documents for landing on the island. Here they are." Thomas said as he handed over the three documents with both hands.

Miss Yinshan took the documents for landing on the island and read them carefully.

But soon, she nodded with satisfaction, handed the documents back to Thomas, and said with a smile: "Well, the procedures are complete and the documents are fine. Welcome to the island."

Afterwards, Shao Yun, Ying and Paimeng followed Thomas and gradually moved away from the port checkpoint.

"Thomas, where is our next destination?" Paimon asked.

Thomas stopped walking after hearing this, and responded with his warm smile, "Next, we have to go to the Far Country Inspection Office. This checkpoint is only used to confirm your permission to land on the island, but if you want to stay on the island, you need to go to the Far Country Inspection Office to complete the residency procedures."

Shao Yun nodded slightly and then asked a question.

"So, how long does this landing permit allow us to stay on the island?"

Thomas thought for a moment and replied, "Well, I think it should be 24 hours. If you don't complete the residency procedures within 24 hours, you will be treated as a stowaway and locked up directly."

After hearing this, Shao Yun nodded thoughtfully and said to himself, "24 hours? That should be enough."

Then he turned to look at Ying and Paimon behind him and made a suggestion.

"Ying and Paimon, let's act separately. I'll go handle the residency procedures, and you go handle your business."

Ying understood Shao Yun's intention, glanced at the statue of Thunder God standing on the hillside in the distance, nodded and responded: "Okay, then where do we meet?"

Shao Yun turned to Thomas for advice.

"Thomas, what do you think?"

Although Thomas was a little puzzled about the split action, he did not ask much. He just scratched his head and said with a smile: "Well... why not just do it in the square on the outlying island?"

……

Afterwards, Ying took Paimeng away to obtain the elemental power of lightning. Thomas looked at their receding backs and asked Shao Yun with confusion, "Mr. Shao Yun, why did you choose to act separately?

"Shao Yun smiled mysteriously and replied softly: "You don't need to ask more about this matter. Let's go to the Yuanguo Supervision Office to handle the residence procedures first..."

Thomas looked at Shao Yun's mysterious smile and couldn't help feeling a chill on his back, but he still obediently led Shao Yun towards the Yuanguo Supervisory Office.

Along the way, they crossed several stone steps and finally arrived at the location of the Far Country Supervisor.

This is a small and elegant courtyard. Yuanguojiansi is a typical Inazuma-style building.

At the entrance of the yard, an Inazuma samurai holding a Jumonji spear stood quietly at the door.

Thomas stopped in front of the door and introduced to Shao Yun: "This is the Yuanguo Supervisory Office, Mr. Shao Yun, next..."

However, before he finished speaking, Shao Yun had already stepped into the yard impatiently, and said excitedly as he walked: "Great, let's go in now."

"Mr. Shao Yun, wait for me!" Thomas didn't understand why he was so excited, but he could only keep up with Shao Yun's pace.

At this moment, a sudden "evil wind" swept past, causing Thomas to shiver involuntarily.

"Why is it so cold?"

……

Lily Hua, a staff member of the Yuanguo Supervision Bureau, was standing at the door. She had an upright posture and a professional calmness in her eyes.

When she saw Thomas with Shao Yun, who looked unfamiliar and obviously from a foreign land, she pursed her lips and asked politely and calmly: "Hello, Mr. Thomas, is this person here to handle the residency procedures? Is this the only one?"

Thomas couldn't help but feel nervous when he heard this, fearing that Shao Yun would do something unexpected, and quickly replied: "No, Miss Baihehua, it's three."

There was a hint of urgency in his words, trying his best to prevent the possible storm from coming.

Baihehua nodded gently. This was all within her expectations. She was going to cheat Shao Yun, a foreigner, out of his money as per her routine. She continued, "Okay, then please pay the handling fee according to the regulations, a total of three million Mora."

Just as Thomas was about to explain something, Shao Yun strode forward, put one hand naturally on Thomas' shoulder, with an exaggerated look of surprise on his face.

"Three million? This handling fee is too expensive!"

Miss Baihehua was used to this kind of expression. Her eyes were always calm. She responded calmly, "This is the rule. One million per person, so three people would naturally get three million. Don't worry, I didn't make a mistake."

Seeing this, Thomas had no choice but to turn around and whisper to Shao Yun: "Mr. Shao Yun, I..."

Before he could finish his words, Shao Yun had already covered his mouth with his hand, telling him not to ruin his good thing.

He turned to Baihehua, pretending to compromise, and said, "Well, we are strangers after all. Three million is three million, let's go and handle the formalities now."

Although Miss Lily Hua felt a little strange about Shao Yun's behavior, her professional ethics allowed her to remain calm and professional as always.

Although he was secretly glad that he had successfully "tricked" another stranger, he said calmly, "Okay, please follow me."

After saying that, Miss Lilyhua turned around and walked into the house of Yuanguo Supervisor.

As soon as Shao Yun let go of Thomas' hand, Thomas spoke anxiously, "Mr. Shao Yun, this handling fee is a private item set up by the Yuanguo Supervisory Office. It is actually a means of plundering the wealth of foreigners. You..."

Shao Yun interrupted Thomas and responded lightly.

"I understand, so I plan to let the people of Yuanguo Supervisory Office understand one thing."

Thomas looked at Shao Yun's confident expression and asked with some concern, "What's the matter?"

Shao Yun leaned close to Thomas' ear and whispered in an almost devilish voice: "Not only must you be alive to rob my money, you must also be alive to spend it!"

Just then, Lilyhua's voice came from a distance.

"That 'Alien', are you still going to do it? If not, don't waste my time."

Shao Yun patted Thomas's shoulder gently and said, "Mr. Thomas, wait here for me to come back."

After saying that, Shao Yun left a meaningful smile and walked into the Yuanguo Supervisory Office, leaving Thomas standing there with cold sweat pouring down his face.

It seems that the light novel "The Gunslinger from Fontaine" was a bit conservative...

……

Shao Yun in the Yuanguo Supervisory Office followed Baihehua's footsteps and came to an office with simple decoration but exuding a majestic atmosphere.

As the door closed, Lily Hua's expression changed instantly. The previous respectful look disappeared, replaced by an aggressive arrogance.

She stretched out her hand, her eyes flashing with greed, and said coldly: "When Mr. Thomas was here, I could still give him some face, but now the rules have to change. A residence permit, five million Mora, not a penny less!"

Upon hearing this, Shao Yun pretended to be surprised, but a barely perceptible cunning and joy flashed in his eyes.

He pretended to be confused and asked back, "It was one million just now, and it increased fivefold in the blink of an eye. Miss Baihehua, is this too inhumane?"

Baihehua mistakenly thought that she had Shao Yun in her hands, and a smug smile appeared on her lips. She threatened: "If you say another word, the price will be close to six million. Now, pay up quickly if you know what's good for you."

Shao Yun sighed softly, as if he was really forced into a desperate situation. He shook his head helplessly and said, "Well, forget it. When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. But I have one condition. The procedures and the money must be exchanged at the same time."

Lily Hua was extremely proud when she saw this. She thought that this tall man would eventually succumb to the iron fist of the Supervisor of the Far Country.

So, she relaxed her guard and said with a smile: "Okay, since you are so sensible, I will help you."

After saying that, she quickly took out three sheets of paper for residence procedures from the drawer and signed and stamped them smoothly. The whole process was quick and skillful and took only twenty seconds.

Afterwards, Baihehua took three copies of the residence permit, walked up to Shao Yun, and handed them over with a gesture of conferring.

"Look, this is your residency permit."

Shao Yun took the document, glanced at it quickly, and saw a confirmation prompt pop up on the system interface.

【Three formal and correct offshore island residency procedures】

Shao Yun was secretly delighted, but on the surface he calmly put the procedures into his pocket.

However, at this moment, Lily Hua stretched out her hand, her tone full of disdain and urging.

"Fifteen million Moras, take it out quickly." Her eyes were full of greed and expectation, as if she had already seen the pile of Moras.

Shao Yun stared at Baihehua, her condescending attitude, thinking that she would make a fortune today by using the little tricks of the Yuanguo Supervisor.

But what he never expected was that the person in front of him was a man who was comparable to the Han chess master "Liu Qi", and he really dared to "turn the table over" and kill people!

He nodded slowly, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and then his right hand quickly pulled out a mask as fast as lightning and put it on his face steadily. His left hand suddenly grasped Lilyhua's throat like an iron clamp and lifted her into the air effortlessly.

A trace of astonishment and fear flashed in Miss Baihehua's eyes. She tried to struggle, but Shao Yun's strength was as strong as steel, making her unable to move.

Her legs kicked wildly in the air and a faint whimper came from her throat, but she couldn't shout for help.

There was no hesitation in Shao Yun's eyes. He continued to exert force with his left hand, and quickly pulled out a dagger from his waist with his right hand. With a flash of cold light, he stabbed it fiercely along Bai Lily Hua's temple.

Lilyhua's body trembled violently in mid-air, and then her eyes gradually lost focus, and all her struggles stopped at this moment.

Shao Yun watched all this coldly, with a cruel smile on his lips.

"My money is not something that anyone can covet. I will have the people of Liyue Wangsheng Hall burn this 15 million as a life-buying fee for you."

After saying that, he pulled out the dagger without mercy and threw Lilyhua's body onto a chair beside him.

Then he turned around quickly and opened the cabinets and drawers in the room one by one, took out all the unrecognizable Mora inside, and dumped all the documents and items on the ground.

When the entire room was filled with flammable materials, Shao Yun opened the window to ensure air circulation.

Then he took out a Molotov cocktail from his Eastern Legend backpack and lit it without hesitation. The moment he pushed open the door and left, he threw it into the room behind him and closed the door tightly.
