Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

After hearing the two key words "Honorary Duke of Fontaine" and "Melo Petersburg", Kelsa felt his body go cold, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

To him at this moment...Leosley's words were like some kind of alien language. He could recognize each word individually, but if he read them together...

He couldn't understand what this sentence meant.

Looking at Kelsa, whose expression was a little dazed and whose body began to tremble unconsciously, Leosli suddenly felt like laughing.

How funny! He thought he was very smart, but in the eyes of people whose abilities and strengths were countless times stronger than his, he was just a clown.

But now, his proud trick was exposed without any warning, and his fate was reversed...

No, to be precise...it was his own understanding of the trajectory of his own destiny that was reversed at this moment.

After all, in the eyes of Chang Ming and Leosli, Kelsa had only one ending, and that was to be imprisoned in the bottom of Melo Petersburg forever.

He thought he could find peace by abandoning all his tribe members as pawns, he thought he could become a "lone wolf"...

But in Chang Ming's eyes, all these tricks of his were rubbish that he had stopped playing three or four hundred years ago, and he was not a "lone wolf".

It was just a "wild dog" on the roadside.

Thinking of this, a mocking smile appeared on Leosli's face, and then he gently waved his hand, signaling the guards behind him to quickly take him down...

"Wait a moment!"

Kelsa suddenly shouted, then staggered and leaned against the wall behind him.

Under the dim light of the street lamp, Leosli was able to see clearly what he was wearing.

The slightly luxurious shirt was tightly stuck to his body at this moment, as if it was completely wet by water.

The fine beads of sweat on Kelsa's forehead were also extremely clear under the light.

And these two points...together foreshadow his true emotions at this moment.

Seeing this, Leosli raised his eyebrows in surprise, then raised his hand to signal his men to stop.

"Why? Mr. Kelsa, do you have anything else to say?"

"But I remember... you included the entire Noklan family in your plan? What else do you want to say at this time?"

Hearing this, Kelsa's expression did not change drastically as before, but instead was unusually calm.

—as if he wasn't the least bit surprised by this.

He leaned against the wall for a while, then slowly stood up and looked at the people in front of him, and asked in a hoarse voice:

"...I just want to know, how on earth did you manage to find my trace and capture others at the same time?"

"Most of the police should be maintaining order near the opera house right now. You want those people but you have to disperse your forces to block me..."

"Even if you have a list of the Noklan family members, it still takes manpower to find their residences. How did you do it?"

Hearing this, Leosli chuckled and shook his head, then looked towards the darkness on the other side of the street as if he had sensed something.

And Kelsa also followed Leosli's gaze towards the creeping darkness at the other end of the street, and was a little confused for a moment.

"What is that...?"

He murmured involuntarily.

It seemed that because he said this, the wriggling darkness in the distance stopped moving instantly, and was replaced by some black and red sparks.

The next moment, those black and red sparks continued to overflow from the darkness as if they had received some instructions.

boom--

A flash of dark red flame bloomed from the darkness, like a giant beast devouring the darkness, instantly illuminating the entire street.

The next moment, the black and red flames that illuminated the entire street instantly gathered into the shape of half a wing and condensed in front of the darkness.

Step—step—step—

The crisp sound of heels hitting the cobblestone road echoed in the quiet street, and a tall, silver-haired woman appeared in front of everyone.

As one of the old nobles in Fontaine, the Noclan family naturally knew who was the controller behind the Northland Bank, and who was the controller who came to Fontaine this time.

Kelsa is no exception.

His brown eyes widened instantly, revealing a hint of fear and disbelief, as if the woman was not a human, but a wild beast that chose to devour humans.

“You, you are…”

The woman ignored Kelsa, whose pupils were trembling violently, and looked at Leosli beside her and said softly:

"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Duke. This joint law enforcement effort was very successful."

"It doesn't matter whether it's hard or not. We are all working for the long-term peace and stability of Fontaine."

Leosli spread his hands and continued:

"We were able to resolve all of this so smoothly... We have to thank Northland Bank for providing us with the specific address, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to do so smoothly."

Alechino shook his head gently, and then turned his eyes to Kelsa, who was already scared to death. Just when he was about to say something...

This guy has already fainted.

Looking at Kelsa who had fainted on the ground, Alechino frowned slightly, as if he was wondering why this guy suddenly fell to the ground.

However, she did not dwell on this matter too much, but looked at Leosli beside her and said:

"According to the arrest plan...has the arrest been completed now, Mr. Duke?"

"Yes, there are a total of forty-eight people on the list provided to us by the Northland Bank, and he... is the forty-eighth."

"That's good. If there's no problem... I'll leave first. Please give my regards to Mr. Chang Ming and Ms. Funina."

After saying that, Alechino waved his hand slightly, as if he was saying goodbye to Leosli, or as if he was calling on the debt collectors lurking in the shadows to leave.

And Leosli looked at the gradually receding figure and shook his head gently.

"I never thought that I would have the chance to work with the Fatui..."

As he spoke, he fixed his gaze in the direction of the opera house, as if he was thinking about something.

After a pause, Leosli said to his men:

"Remember to take these people back to the Shadow Exorcist Court first, and then transfer them to Melo Petersburg when the final verdict is handed down in front of the public."

"Yes!"

......

Just when Leosli had dealt with the rats that liked to drill back and forth in the sewers, Chang Ming also finished explaining his ideas.

The essence of the so-called drastic measures is to carry out drastic reforms on the opera market in Fontainebleau, so as to bring about earth-shaking changes in this market.

In this way...those playwrights who want to give up will be forced to innovate because of market changes.

After all, one Claude cannot represent the entire Fontaine Opera market, even if Chang Ming worked hard to push this thing onto the stage of Teyvat.

Eventually, these guys who are more likely to cause trouble than to do good will fall.

This is not what Chang Ming wants to see.

As if she had thought of this, Navia, who had been in a long silence, suddenly nodded and explained:

"So... Mr. Chang Ming, you want to use the camera to complete the performance in the subsequent process? Then the role of the opera house..."

Navia frowned slightly, as if she was a little worried about what would happen next.

After all, the opera house has been in existence for five hundred years. If it were replaced suddenly, it would more or less cause discomfort to the public, right?

Hearing this, an intriguing smile appeared on Furninna's face, and then she said:

"There's no need to worry about that. After all, since Chang Ming was able to spread the news and implement it, it means he has made all the plans."

"Am I right, Chang Ming?"

As Funina spoke, she looked at Chang Ming beside her, like a child seeking praise from an adult after doing something.

Looking at Funina's somewhat proud expression, Chang Ming smiled helplessly and nodded.

"Opera will still be a major feature of Fontaine, but it will take some time to polish. Miss Navia should also know what the recent opera market is like."

In response, Navia nodded in understanding, then chatted with a few people about some meaningless daily life before leaving the opera house with Clorinde.

After all, she is now the president of the Thorn Rose Society and has a lot of things to manage. The development of Baisong Town cannot do without her at present, so...she must go back early.

As for Clorinde...

She just wanted to abide by the agreement between herself and Carles and let Navia get home safely.

That's it.

After the two men left, Poirot, who had been listening quietly, asked:

"Master Chang Ming, how was our performance today? Have we improved since the last rehearsal?"

Chang Ming nodded slightly to show his approval, and then he said:

“Everyone in the troupe has made great progress. They are not as stage frightened as I imagined, and their performances are very good.”

"Especially Mr. Poirot, who stepped on stage temporarily as a substitute, has shown his fanaticism to the extreme and deserves special praise."

Hearing this, the eyes of everyone in the troupe suddenly lit up, and a hint of excitement appeared on their faces.

"Mr. Chang Ming, didn't you say before that if we perform well in this performance, we can meet with the head of Oretti?"

"So now...?"

Wilman asked tentatively.

Chang Ming nodded calmly, and then explained:

"Of course you can, but... there is no such method in this world that goes against the laws of life as resurrecting the dead."

"I... to be more precise, all that Violet and I can do is to allow Captain Oretti's consciousness to return to this world for half an hour."

"Half an hour is not our limit, but the limit of the creatures of Teyvat."

"If it lasts more than half an hour, her consciousness will soon be infected by the overpowering force, and she will eventually turn into a crazy monster that preys on anyone she chooses to eat."

"Even so...are you willing to meet her?"

After hearing Chang Ming's explanation, everyone present instantly quieted down and fell into a long silence.

Looking at the silent people in front of him, Chang Ming sighed silently.

It's not that he had to let them have such an ups and downs mental journey, but he had to explain this matter clearly.

Being able to revive the dead is against the rules of Teyvat, even if Captain Oretti's personal will can resist the influence of the power of the abyss...

It was only a matter of time before her consciousness collapsed.

The only way now is to hand this problem over to the true "genius".
