Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

Chapter 129 The Approaching Storm (with a leave request)

There is a saying that goes: The peaceful and quiet days you enjoy now are actually because someone is carrying the burden for you.

This sentence can perfectly fit Chang Ming's current situation.

While Ying and Paimon were still busy in Mello Petersburg trying to decipher the rules of the weird story and looking for Tartaglia, Chang Ming was drinking afternoon tea with Funina on the water.

Perhaps because this humanoid mobile disaster went underwater, in the following week...Fontaine above the water was quite stable.

This stability is not only reflected in the living atmosphere within Fontaine, but also in the work content of the civil servants in Momang Palace.

The ones who felt this most clearly... were of course the two famous civil servants - Chang Ming and Navilette.

Before Ying entered Melro Petersburg, Villette presided over five or six trials a day, sometimes three or four.

After she went in, the frequency suddenly became two or three, and sometimes there was no trial scheduled.

This gave Villette plenty of time to observe how the people of Fontaine expressed their emotions.

Chang Ming felt it even more obviously.

In the past, the pile of documents he had to correct in a day was about half the height of Sedna, but now... the number of documents was reduced by half.

Because of this, Chang Ming was able to spare a lot of time to screen resumes and have afternoon tea with Funina.

Of course, most of my free time was spent on the latter matter.

After all, the only people who can drink afternoon tea from the afternoon to dusk are probably Chang Ming and Funina.

......

Although such days are comfortable, Chang Ming still does not relax his requirements on himself.

As always, he arrived at the office fifteen minutes early to deal with today's government affairs.

Sedna, as usual, slowly placed a small pile of documents on Chang Ming's desk and said as usual:

"Master Chang Ming, all the documents to be reviewed today are here. Please have a look!"

"Okay, thank you Sedna~"

Chang Ming smiled and rubbed Sedna's little head, then said:

"If there is someone who claims to be from the Thorn Rose Society or is sent by Mello Petersburg and wants to see me, there is no need to ask, just bring him in directly."

"Yes! Please rest assured, Lord Chang Ming, I will complete the task!"

After saying that, a serious look appeared on Sedna's face, and then...she jumped out of Chang Ming's office.

Looking at the walking posture that was totally inconsistent with her expression, Chang Ming was a little amused and helpless for a moment.

"This kid..."

But it is understandable that being entrusted with important responsibilities by the elders whom you admire also means that you are valued, so it is normal to be happy.

"Forget it, let's hurry up and prepare the resettlement plan and arguments for the residents of Baisong Town...if we delay any longer, it will probably be too late."

Chang Ming shook his head slightly, then took out four sheets of paper with detailed implementation plans from the drawer and continued to copy them.

The geographical location of Baisong Town is quite abstract. There are obviously quite a lot of flat land in the Bailu District where it is located, but they don’t know why it has not expanded outward.

"But even though that's what I said, it would be fine if we just made the interests clear, right?"

Chang Ming touched his chin, then closed his eyes, recalling the appearance of Baisong Town while writing something on the white paper in front of him.

"The current location of Baisong Town is a natural underground cave. As time goes by, there is a risk of collapse at any time."

"Plus, the terrain is too complex and there are great safety risks. It is not a suitable place to live."

"Cares' case has been overturned. With the help of the people of Baisong Town's respect for Cares and a little bit of guilt... let Navia take the lead in doing this."

"This way, I can not only achieve my goal, but also exercise Navia's abilities. It's the best of both worlds."

Thinking of this, a smile emerged on Chang Ming's face, and then he planned to compile a final version of the document and take it to Baisong Town.

"There are still at least three days until the Taihai Sea eruption time shown in the "script". There are relatively few residents in Baisong Town, so there should be enough time for them to be evacuated..."

However, before Chang Ming could start organizing the documents in his hands, Sedna's voice came from outside the office door.

"Mr. Chang Ming! There is a guard lady from Melo Petersburg who wants to see you!"

Hearing this, Chang Ming subconsciously raised his eyebrows, his expression instantly became serious, and then he spoke:

"Sedna, come in with Miss Caretaker."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of Chang Ming's office was pushed open. A woman in a black uniform walked quickly to his desk, bowed slightly and said:

"Master Chang Ming, the Duke invites you to Melo Petersburg for a chat, saying... someone wants to see you."

"I see. Thank you for your trouble."

"This is what I should do, Lord Chang Ming."

Looking at the guard in front of him, Chang Ming nodded slightly, then picked up the cane on the table and followed the guard to Melo Petersburg.

......

Chang Ming and Leosli's private meetings usually do not take place in the office, but like last time, they take place near the pipe at the entrance.

Looking at Leosli who seemed to have been waiting in front of the passage for a long time, Chang Ming nodded slightly, and the expression on his face gradually became serious.

He knew that Leosley came to him for only two reasons.

Either Ying's investigation results on the whereabouts of the "Young Master" have come out, or there have been new movements in the "gate" in the restricted area.

But these two things point to the same result - the first outbreak of fetal sea water is coming.

"When I get back... hurry up and evacuate the people of Baisong Town."

“Minimizing the negative impact of the fetal sea water outbreak is also paving the way for subsequent content...”

Leosli, who had been waiting for a long time, handed a piece of paper to Chang Ming and said:

"You and the two people sent by Villette chose to cooperate with the three children from the Hearth House to investigate, and eventually found that Tartaglia disappeared at the end of a pipe and disappeared."

Hearing this, Chang Ming nodded without any surprise, and then said:

"So... is there something wrong with the gate?"

Leosli nodded solemnly and pointed symbolically in the direction behind him.

"The pointer on the gate is trembling back and forth. The concentration of fetal sea water may have exceeded the maximum threshold. I'm afraid it will erupt in a few days."

"Claurinde has also come to Melo Petersburg. We are always ready for this disaster."

"On the surface of the water... I'll leave it to you."

I have a fever today... I just came back from an IV drip (damn fever cold). I finished writing this chapter with a dizzy head. If I feel better tomorrow, I will make up for it.

Translation: There will be at least six updates tomorrow, and at least three in the morning, to finish writing about Baisong Town in one go.

Don't worry if you haven't read the specific plot. I originally planned to make a simplified version of the next chapter from the player's perspective, but I'm really not feeling well () I'll make it up tomorrow

But so far no one seems to have guessed what race I want to write about...
