~6 min read 1,156 words

Tianquan Ningguang: "We in Liyue have specialized wet nurses. If you have any needs..."

Furina: "Pfft, we in Fontaine have Clorinde."

Clorinde: "???"

[On the top of a high-rise building near the Palais Mermonia.]

[Arlecchino's subordinates were observing all this with binoculars.]

["Is that person the Pope of Fontaine Court?"]

["He is actually meeting with the Hydro Archon; there must be a situation."]

["I must quickly tell Lady Arlecchino everything tonight."]

[The words fell, and they were about to put away the binoculars and leave.]

[But they felt their body pause, and the image of Su Bai in the lens became blurry.]

["What's going on?" The subordinate was surprised.]

[Immediately after, the low voice coming from their ear made them feel like they had fallen into the abyss.]

["Is it possible that because you are too close to me, the lens of the binoculars has become blurry?"]

[What?]

[The Fatui soldier was terrified.]

[The moment he put away the binoculars, he realized that at some point, Su Bai was already standing in front of him.]

[No, to be precise, it should be that he didn't know when he had come from the high place to the ground and was kneeling in front of Su Bai.]

["Go back and tell Arlecchino that I am waiting for her in the office and tell her to come see me now."]

Yae Miko: "So domineering, I like it..."

Tartaglia: "Is Su Bai that outrageous? That soldier was secretly observing him from a high place, and he was discovered and brought in front of him in an instant."

Arlecchino: "That person must have been sent by me to monitor Furina. I remember in this life, Furina was so scared that she didn't even have the mood to eat her Mille-Feuille and didn't sleep all night."

Collei: "The Furina of the previous life, however, had a great appetite and ate all the cake Mr. Su Bai gave her."

Amber: "And a happy smile appeared on her face involuntarily."

Pierro: "So, will Arlecchino go to see Mr. Su Bai?"

Alhaitham: "I think she will. Didn't she have contact and cooperation with Mr. Su Bai before?"

Enjou: "Hehe, with the wisdom of a Fatui Harbinger, it's impossible not to understand the stakes. She will definitely go."

Lumine: "If she doesn't listen, hang her up and beat her."

Lisa: "What's wrong with little Lumine? It feels like you've opened some kind of forbidden switch."

Nahida: "My dear Lumine, are you okay?"

Lumine: "I'm fine. I'm returning to myself."

Paimon: "Wow! Has Lumine, who has fused seven elemental powers, already regained her memory?"

Yoimiya: "Eh, why does Lumine, who has regained her memory, feel so fierce?"

[Late at night.]

[The door to Su Bai's office was gently knocked.]

["Lord Pope."]

["Arlecchino has brought fresh tea and says she has an important matter to discuss with you."]

[Everson's voice came from outside the door.]

["Let her in."]

["Yes, my lord."]

[After getting Su Bai's consent.]

[Everson opened the door.]

[Arlecchino walked into the room slowly, carrying a tea box.]

["Long time no see, dear Pope."]

[Su Bai subconsciously glanced at the tea box in Arlecchino's hand; it was indeed the variety he liked to drink.]

[Feeling Su Bai's gaze.]

[Arlecchino laughed.]

[She laughed very naturally, as if meeting an old acquaintance.]

["I still remember the Pope's taste preferences."]

[Arlecchino skillfully placed the tea box in the correct place.]

[Then she sat on the sofa, crossing her long legs.]

["The Pope sent a message late at night; I don't know what you want to see me for."]

Lyney: "Why does Father in the previous life give me the feeling that she is very familiar with Mr. Su Bai?"

Lynette: "I have the same feeling."

Lisa: "Dear Fourth Fatui Harbinger, the Knave, please explain to everyone why you in the previous life knew Su Bai, who was the Pope, and explain your underground lover relationship."

Arlecchino: "Hmph! The witch of Mondstadt really just says whatever comes to mind."

Navia: "It's messy, it's really too messy. How many girls has Mr. Su Bai had things with in our Fontaine?"

Su Bai: "What kind of talk is this? Respected Judge Neuvillette, can I sue Navia for defamation?"

Neuvillette: "As it stands, respected reincarnator Mr. Su Bai, you do indeed have unclear relationships with many girls."

Su Bai: "You don't understand. I am philanthropic. I want world peace, love for each other, and I want to give every suffering person a happy home."

Furina: "Wow! I didn't find that Su Bai could brag better than me."

Navia: "Pfft, you made me laugh. Sir is really humorous."

["Really asking what you already know." Su Bai swept a cold glance at Arlecchino.]

[Arlecchino didn't care, just spread her hands: "Sigh, that's something that couldn't be helped, right?"]

["I am very grateful that the Pope took action back then for me, an orphan of the House of the Hearth, and helped me kill the previous Knave."]

["I came back this time just to complete the task assigned by the Tsaritsa, and by the way, as a Fontaine person, I want to find a way to deal with the upcoming prophecy."]

["I think the Pope knows better than anyone that the sea level in Fontaine has been rising constantly in recent years."]

["Some time ago, there was even a scene of Primordial Sea Water dissolving Fontaine people."]

["Everything is gradually approaching the prophecy."]

[Arlecchino finished speaking.]

[She looked seriously at the indifferent Su Bai.]

["Even the children of the House of the Hearth want to do their best to stop the prophecy."]

["What is the Hydro Archon doing?"]

["Watching operas, watching trials, leisurely drinking tea and eating cake in the Palais Mermonia."]

["Everything seems to have nothing to do with her."]

[As Arlecchino spoke, her tone began to become much heavier than before.]

["You are not a Fontaine person, the Primordial Sea Water has no effect on you, and with your ability, you are also completely unafraid of the so-called prophecy crisis."]

["But for the people of Fontaine, the prophecy is a knife hanging over their heads at all times."]

["Once it happens, what will the people of Fontaine do?"]

["The Tsaritsa of Snezhnaya promised me that as long as I get the Gnosis, I can first use the Hydro Archon's Gnosis to fight this prophecy and save Fontaine."]

[Arlecchino did not hide her purpose for this trip from Su Bai.]

[In her view, with Su Bai's hundreds of years of foundation, it is impossible for him not to know the Fatui's target.]

[Moreover, the gods seem not to care much about the Gnosis.]

[Generally speaking, as long as the attitude is not too bad, they will give the Tsaritsa face.]

[It's like some kind of tacit understanding between gods.]

["And through my probing tonight, things have become even more interesting."]

[Arlecchino carried a hint of playfulness.]

["Furina's performance is not like a god at all..."]
