Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat

While the two of them were enjoying Xumi's coffee and snacks.

Shao Yun asked Lisa, who was sitting elegantly opposite him, for no apparent reason: "Lisa, when you were studying in Xumi, did you hear about the Little Auspicious Grass King?"

Lisa picked up the coffee in front of her and took a sip. Then she thought for a moment like a lady before responding, "Hmm... Little Jixiangcao Wang, I remember that when I was in school, I didn't hear much about her."

"I only heard that she lives in Jingshan Palace. Other than that, there is really no other information."

Shao Yun heard that Lisa, an outstanding graduate hailed as a genius by everyone, actually knew very little about Nashida's situation.

He thought to himself, no wonder the demon thought that some Sumeru people had voluntarily left Nashida's protection. What was the difference between Nashida's life and that of a transparent person?

"Oh, so that's how it is...Okay..."

However, at this moment, Lisa noticed that there seemed to be some different emotions hidden behind Shao Yun's seemingly calm reaction.

So she put down the coffee cup in her hand and asked with concern: "From your appearance, your search for the Grass God is not going smoothly?"

When Shao Yun heard Lisa talking about whether things were going smoothly, he thought that it was not that it was not going smoothly. After all, he met with Cao Shen directly and the matter was considered settled.

"It's okay. I plan to wait until after the Flower Goddess' Birthday Festival." Shao Yun told Lisa about his current plan.

When Lisa, who had studied in the Ordinary House for two years, heard the words "Flower Goddess Birthday Festival", she became interested.

"Flower Goddess Festival? I've heard of this festival, but I was doing an experiment with my teacher Gules the first year, so I missed it. I went the second year, but the event held in the Grand Bazaar was, how should I put it, a little bit of a fuss."

Shao Yun was thinking that the days were running out until the Flower Goddess’ birthday, so he kindly extended an invitation to Lisa.

"So, are you interested in going to see this year's Flower Goddess Festival? This event has received support from a big sponsor, and the scale and content are far greater than ever before. It will definitely not be the small-scale event you saw last time."

Based on the principle that more people means more fun, Shao Yun also hopes that Lisa can come to participate in the Flower Goddess Birthday Festival.

After all, I had been busy at the Zubair Theatre for a whole day and had put in some effort!

Seeing that Shao Yun said that this year's Flower Goddess Birthday Festival would be particularly good, Lisa was also aroused by her curiosity.

"Oh? Since even you highly recommend it, I really need to take some time to experience it!"

……

On the other side, in front of a counter not far away, stood a strange-looking boy with white hair and red eyes.

The most eye-catching thing is that he wears a hooded cloak in the shape of jackal ears on his head, making him look mysterious and handsome.

The young man was seen talking to Enteka, the acting owner of the cafe, and ordered a cup of coffee from him.

I only heard him say in a deep and magnetic voice: "Please give me a cup of coffee, thank you."

At this moment, Lisa, who was sitting in the corner, suddenly heard this familiar voice.

Her body suddenly stopped and she couldn't help mumbling to herself.

“What is this voice…?”

At the same time, the mysterious young man seemed to have noticed the sound coming from Lisa. He looked incredulous and muttered in a low voice: "This sound is...!"

Then, their eyes met.

When Lisa finally saw the face of the person in front of her clearly, she called out his name.

"Seno?!"

When Seno saw Lisa, a look of surprise instantly appeared on his face.

He quickly took the cup of coffee that had just been ordered from Enteka and strode to Lisa.

"Senior Sister Lisa!"

For a moment, the two just looked at each other quietly.

It took a long time for the two to recover from their shock.

Sai Nuo was the first to break the silence and asked, "Senior Sister, why didn't you tell me before you came to Xumi this time?"

Lisa smiled slightly upon hearing this and replied softly, "Hello, Junior Brother Senuo. In fact, I just arrived in Xumi City this morning as well."

Lisa pointed to the empty chair next to her and asked, "Would you like to share a table?"

Senuo nodded slightly to show his agreement, and then sat down next to Lisa without hesitation, and said in a very respectful manner: "Thank you very much, Senior Sister!"

After Seno sat down, he noticed Shao Yun who was sitting opposite Lisa.

Seno looked at Shao Yun curiously and asked politely, "Excuse me, who are you? Are you my friend? But judging from your appearance, you don't look like a Sumeru person, nor a Mond person."

At this time, Lisa, who originally planned to introduce Shao Yun to Seno in person, was about to speak when she suddenly changed her mind and thought that it would be better to try not to cause unnecessary trouble for Shao Yun.

So she turned her gaze to Shao Yun, indicating that he should introduce himself.

After receiving the hint, Shao Yun first took off his hat to Seno, and then began to introduce himself.

"Hello, Mr. Seno, I am indeed Miss Lisa's friend. As for how to address me, just call me..."

Shao Yun paused halfway through his words. He wanted to use his real name, but after a brief thought...

"'Tacitus' will do."

After all, they are "law enforcers" so it is better to reveal as little information about yourself as possible.

Seno also introduced himself simply: "Hello Mr. Tacitus, my name is Seno."

Afterwards, Lisa and Seno started chatting and reminiscing about the past.

"The last time we met was when you came to Mondstadt and took Kelai back to Xumi. Almost a year has passed in the blink of an eye. It really goes by so fast..."

She raised her head slightly, recalling the past.

Seino, who was sitting next to him, nodded seriously and responded, "Yes, it has been many years since Senior Sister graduated, and I have also become a senior disciplinary officer... Senior Sister is still as beautiful as ever."

When Lisa heard Seno praising her so seriously, a charming smile instantly bloomed on her face, and she said coquettishly: "Oh, your mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter..."

"By the way, if you have a day off, why not come to Mondstadt and have a look? Senior Sister will treat you well."

Afterwards, the two continued their conversation, and before they knew it, the topic turned to Shao Yun.

Shao Yun waved his hand indifferently and said, "Actually, I'm just an unknown person riding a horse around."

At this moment, a sudden idea flashed in Seno's mind, and he quickly came up with a joke.

"Speaking of riding...I wonder if Mr. Tacitus ever wondered why horses are always late?"

Lisa knew that her junior fellow apprentice was going to tell another joke, so she covered her mouth and tried to hold back her laughter.

However, Shao Yun's curiosity was aroused, and he asked with great interest: "Why?"

Seno kept his serious look and explained slowly: "That's because every time a horse goes out, it always says 'horse' goes out!"

After Seno finished telling the joke, Shao Yun not only did not feel the slightest bit embarrassed, but laughed out loud without restraint.

"Hahaha, this is a really good joke! In that case, let me tell one too."

Shao Yun adhered to the principle of reciprocity, and a classic Old West joke quickly flashed through his mind.

“You know why cowboys’ horses always look so sad?”

As soon as these words came out, the calm Seno suddenly became interested and couldn't wait to ask: "Oh? Why?"

Seeing this, Shao Yun paused for a moment before explaining slowly, "That's because it's always being saddled!"

(“saddle” and “saddened” are pronounced similarly, a Western literal joke)

(Note: Sino understood.)

After hearing this joke, Seno couldn't help but give Shao Yun a thumbs up and praised him sincerely: "Well, this joke is really great! I didn't expect Mr. Tacitus to be so good at telling jokes. He is simply a hidden joke master!"

As the two of them were sharing their jokes with each other, Lisa couldn't stand it anymore.

She gently closed her eyes, covered her forehead with her hands, and sighed helplessly: "Oh, well, this is good, Junior Brother Senuo has found his soulmate."

Then, Lisa slowly opened her eyes, and then gently supported her chin with her hand. Her eyes fell on Shao Yun, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised. She said softly: "When I first met you, I knew that you could get along well with Senor! You two have a strong sense of humor."

At this moment, Seno, who was standing by, saw that Shao Yun was as good at telling jokes as he was, so he struck while the iron was hot and asked expectantly, "Since we both know how to tell jokes, Mr. Tacitus, how well do you know how to play the game 'Seven Summonings'?"

When Shao Yun heard the words "Seven Saints Summons", he blinked and asked in confusion, "What?"

Shao Yun thought to himself, this game really exists. In the Seven Summonings, am I a character card or some skill card?

I feel that it is most likely a skill card, after all, the character card is a bit too strong.

Seeing Shao Yun's confused look, Seno thought he knew nothing about it, so he quickly explained enthusiastically: "Seven Saints Summoning is a very interesting card game. If you haven't played it, Mr. Tacitus, it means you don't have a card box..."

As he said that, he turned his gaze to Lisa beside him and asked hopefully: "Senior sister, I remember you should have a card box, can I lend it to Shao Yun to play a game? I want to teach him how to play."

Lisa nodded and did not deny it. After all, she had played the Seven Summonings when she was in Xumi, but...

"I have the card box for the Seven Summonings, but I'm not very interested in playing cards, so I don't have it with me. It's still in Mondstadt."

After a brief pause, Lisa seemed to remember a new change in Mondstadt.

"Oh, right! But speaking of which, it seems that this Xumi game is going to spread to the Cat's Tail Tavern in Mondstadt. I heard that Miss Margaret seems to be willing to transform her tavern into a place where people can play cards."

At this time, Shao Yun came to his senses and quickly explained to Senuo beside him: "I don't have any Seven Sages Calling card box, but I can play poker. Like Texas Hold'em, or blackjack. But obviously, these are not as famous as Seven Sages Calling."

Although Seno was quite unfamiliar with the names such as Texas Hold'em and Blackjack mentioned by Shao Yun, he at least understood the key points.

The friend in front of me has never played Seven Summonings.

Seno couldn't help but reveal a regretful expression, and said, "Well, isn't it such a coincidence? What a pity, if I hadn't been a little busy recently, I would really like to take the time to teach you how to play the Seven Sacred Summons."

When Lisa heard that Seno was busy recently, she couldn't help but ask with concern: "By the way, Seno, what have you been busy with recently?"

Seno looked at Lisa and thought it would be okay to tell her, so he told her his mission truthfully.

"I am investigating a strange project of the Church Order. I suspect that the Great Sage is going to do something very dangerous. In the coming period, Xumi City may be a little uneasy. Senior Sister, please be careful."

When Lisa heard Seno say that Xumi City might not be safe recently, her heart skipped a beat and the smile on her face froze for a moment.

But she quickly regained her composure, nodded slightly and encouraged, "So that's how it is. But with a great disciplinary officer like you, there shouldn't be any trouble."

"As for me, you don't have to worry at all. After all, I am not a pushover. Little winds and waves can't do anything to me."

Seno nodded heavily and responded, "Well, then please be careful, Senior Sister. Time is precious. I'm sorry I can't stay with you for a while longer. Goodbye."

After saying that, Seno picked up the cup of espresso in front of him, drank it all in one gulp, then stood up and walked towards the door of the cafe.

Seeing this, Lisa raised her hand gracefully, waved it gently, and said with a smile: "Goodbye, Seno, be careful!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Seno, who had already walked to the door, suddenly stopped, turned around, and said to Lisa: "By the way, Senior Sister, and Mr. Tacitus, do you know? I'm learning a new way to say goodbye recently."

Shao Yun looked at Senuo and asked impatiently, "Oh? Is it true? Tell us what kind of special way of saying goodbye is it?"

With a serious face, Seno replied solemnly: "I call it 'Seno Farewell'!"

Shao Yun asked with great interest: "'Seno-style farewell' sounds like a very formal way of saying goodbye, what is the specific process?"

Standing at the table, Senor immediately began to demonstrate this special way of saying goodbye to Shao Yun. While demonstrating, he explained: "It's actually very simple. You just need to say the word 'goodbye', and then..."

In the next moment, he disappeared at the door.

Shao Yun witnessed this scene of Seno and couldn't help laughing.

"Hahaha, this joke is so funny. Lisa, your junior brother Seno is so interesting!"
