Genshin Impact: Funina's Official Pastry Chef

Chapter 601: Lenore's Search for Relatives (Part )

After a brief quarrel, the atmosphere among the crowd was finally no longer so heavy.

And it was precisely because of this relatively relaxed atmosphere that they quickly assigned the next tasks.

Ying and Paimon followed Caterpillar and the others to investigate the Narcissus Cross Society, while Chang Ming was responsible for handling existing affairs within Fontaine.

After all...if the investigation into the Narcissus Cross incident had revealed the results, Chang Ming, as the regent and one of the strongest fighters in Fontaine, would definitely rush to the scene as soon as possible.

If he has other things to deal with by then...I'm afraid things will become very complicated and difficult to resolve.

"Then it's settled! Chang Ming, go and finish all the other things at Fontaine, and then come and help us!"

Paimon put his hands on his hips and spoke confidently as he looked at the man standing in front of him.

After all, what is known now is that... the Narcissus Cross Society has a certain degree of relationship with the Abyss. If we have to deal with this kind of thing, Chang Ming, who already possesses the power of the Abyss, will definitely be the best at it.

Hearing this, Chang Ming chuckled and nodded, as if he had expected Paimon to say that.

For him, letting Catepilla and Seymour investigate on his behalf was just a way of being lazy.

But there is a limit to laziness after all, it is impossible to be lazy all the time, so... Chang Ming was ready to set off early in the morning.

"No problem. Once I have finished dealing with the things I have on hand, I will rush over as soon as possible."

Chang Ming said as he handed the purple patch he used to communicate with the members of "Shizuitai" to the two people in front of him.

"If you have any major discoveries or unsolvable problems... just crush this thing and give it to me."

Hearing this, Paimeng lowered his head slightly to look at the patch in his hand, then raised his head to look at Chang Ming who was smiling in front of him, and asked hesitantly:

"... Chang Ming, are you sure... this thing really only has a communication function? It won't become... explosives or something dangerous, right?"

"...?"

Paimeng’s words stunned Chang Ming for a moment, and then he shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"I'm not at the point of wanting to kill anyone to silence them, so feel free to use it."

"But...if you find yourself surrounded by the power of the abyss, you must throw this thing away."

"Once this thing detects too high abyss concentration, it will enter self-destruction, and then..."

Chang Ming made a semicircle with his hands, as if foreshadowing the outcome that this thing would cause.

"But don't worry, I'll be there in no time even if this thing self-destructs."

Chang Ming chuckled and waved his hand, then ignored Paimon who was obviously dissatisfied with him, and looked at Caterpilla who was standing not far away.

"I'll leave the investigation to you. Next... I'll go and settle Lenore. Don't worry, I'll keep our promise."

Caterpillar nodded slightly, and then began to pack up his things in the dormitory.

Chang Ming nodded slightly to Funina beside him, and then walked towards the infirmary of Melo Petersburg.

Looking at the two people's backs gradually going away, Paimeng tilted his head, and then whispered to Ying beside him:

"Hey Ying, tell me...if Chang Ming and Funina really want to have a wedding, where will it be held? Will they invite us?"

"...Paimon, when did you become so fond of meddling in other people's private affairs?"

Ying glanced at her often out-of-touch guide with some surprise, as if she didn't understand what her guide was thinking about all day.

"Oh! I just think that since Chang Ming was the best pastry chef in Fontaine before he became the regent, the cake for his wedding must be super delicious, right?"

“If I can’t eat it...I’ll always feel sorry...”

Paimon curled her lips, as if "eating the wedding cake made by Chang Ming himself" had become her obsession.

"...I'll ask for you later."

"Great! Ying, you're the best!"

......

Just when Ying and Paimeng were discussing whether they could eat Chang Ming's wedding cake...Chang Ming had already arrived at the infirmary of Melo Petersburg.

"Hmm? Brother Chang Ming, Sister Funina! You came to see me! What are we going to play today?"

Almost at the moment when Chang Ming and Funina stepped into the infirmary, Linor, who was originally sitting bored on the hospital bed, suddenly rushed over, as if she had found someone worthy of relying on.

Looking at Lenore in front of her, Furninna gently rubbed her little head, and then said softly:

"Linol, how are you? Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, no! I feel very healthy now, and I seem to have endless energy!"

As Linor spoke, she showed her non-existent muscles to Chang Ming and Funina in a very cute way, as if her small body really had endless power.

"Little Lenore's health is indeed good. It's not a little bit better. Her physical fitness is not like that of a child at all."

As Xigwen spoke, she walked towards Chang Ming's direction and said softly:

"And...I found that this child seems to have a unique affinity for elements. Many potions mixed with elemental particles have very, very good effects on her."

"Mr. Chang Ming, I don't know much about elements. Do you think... Is Lenore's situation normal?"

Sigwen blinked eagerly, as if seeking an answer from Chang Ming.

But only Chang Ming could see through the worry behind those eyes - as a doctor, Sigwen's curiosity about the problem was far less than her worry about the patient.

After all, if it were the other way around - the one standing here would not be Sigwen, but Dotore.

Perhaps because there was a child here, she couldn't express that emotion completely, but as one of the people who knew Meilushin best in Fontaine, Chang Ming could see that something was wrong with her.

"Don't worry, it's okay."

Chang Ming chuckled and nodded, gave Sigwen a reassuring look, and then asked Lenore softly:

"Linol, after your last "adventure", is there anywhere else you'd like to go?"

"Place you want to go?"

"Hmm~ Like the heavy punishment area, is there any place you want to go?"

Hearing Chang Ming's question, Linor fell into a brief thought, and then said softly:

"...I want to go to the surface and see what the world everyone has been telling me about is like."

"And... I also want to know how beautiful the world above the water is that would allow my mother to leave me alone..."
