Chapter 148

Just as they walked into Liyue City, not long after, Lin Mo suddenly heard some discussions.

"If you ask me, that child Zhiyi is truly strong."

"Who says not? I've heard since Zhiyi was a child that he is very helpful, optimistic in facing his unfortunate fate, and even takes the initiative to help."

"Uh, what are you talking about? I haven't heard of this person."

"Hehe, we are talking about a child who grew up in Liyue and lost his parents. It is said that he was adopted by his stepfather and stepmother, who beat and scolded him at will, but after growing up, he did not return evil for good, but instead took the initiative to support his stepfather and stepmother."

"Wow, that's too filial."

These discussions sounded one after another, entering Lin Mo's ears, making Lin Mo's expression strange.

Isn't this name the guy who participated in the Tianshu Star assessment?

When he came back before, he hadn't heard of it, but now he heard it in the blink of an eye?

For a moment, Lin Mo fell into deep thought.

Does this mean that the assessment for Tianshu Star of the Liyue Qixing already has rumors?

"Damn, it's this Zhiyi again; my ears have heard calluses these past two days."

Beside Lin Mo, the Millelith soldier Zhao Kaiyun, who was walking along, heard this and was speechless: "I don't know what's going on. It seems that someone who went to the Liyue countryside returned these past two days, causing a lot of discussion, and many people are talking about this guy."

"At first, when I heard about this guy, I thought he was quite good, but now that I hear it almost every day, I feel a bit annoyed."

"How can you say that?"

Hearing Zhao Kaiyun's words, Wen Qi frowned: "You have to know that it is a good thing that such a filial person appears in our Liyue."

Hearing Zhao Kaiyun and Wen Qi's words, Lin Mo raised his eyebrows.

Has the momentum already started to build?

If he remembered correctly, Zhiyi cooperated with the diplomatic ambassador of the Northland Bank, and finally backstabbed them when he succeeded.

At that time, he seemed to remember it was three months ago?

"I shouldn't have remembered it wrong."

Lin Mo pinched his chin and fell into deep thought: "If it is really the Tianshu Star assessment, then this person has already started to build momentum, so in three to four months, there will be a selection process."

"Forget it, it has nothing to do with me."

Thinking of this, Lin Mo shook his head gently and ignored it.

Instead, he went to Wanmin Restaurant with Wen Qi.

"Lin Mo, good evening."

On the way to Wanmin Restaurant, Chef Mao greeted Lin Mo with a smile.

"Good evening, Chef Mao."

Lin Mo smiled and said: "The usual."

"Got it."

As Chef Mao responded and began to prepare dinner for Lin Mo.

On the other side.

Yuehai Pavilion.

Ganyu, who was handling matters, saw Yelan arrive and her eyes brightened: "You're here."

"This is the intelligence you need; I have already prepared it for you."

Saying this, Ganyu handed the information she had prepared to Yelan.

"Your efficiency is as impeccable as ever."

Seeing that Ganyu had prepared it long ago, Yelan sighed: "I'm thinking, if only I had half the beast blood you have."

Yelan felt that Ganyu could work non-stop and keep her efficiency impeccable. The half-adeptus bloodline probably gave Ganyu a lot of convenience, allowing her to maintain energy without sleeping.

"It's alright."

Hearing Yelan's words, Ganyu scratched her head, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"By the way, Yelan, do you need a helper? This mission to The Chasm seems a bit troublesome."

Ganyu pondered for a moment and said: "I can send a bunch of Millelith soldiers to assist you in the investigation."

"Forget about having many people."

Hearing Ganyu's words, Yelan shook her head gently: "But regarding the helper you mentioned, I thought of Lin Mo from the Sea of Clouds. If possible, I will ask him if he is willing to go with me."

"Lin Mo?"

Hearing Yelan's words, Ganyu was thoughtful: "I haven't been able to investigate that person's identity to this day. Although a lot of evidence proves he is from Liyue, there is no clear source, and it remains a mystery."

"And his requirements are very simple. Besides the meal allowance from Wanmin Restaurant, he is not very willing to be transferred to Liyue City."

Speaking of this, Ganyu felt a bit helpless, which gave her a headache.

Liyue had never had such a strange Millelith soldier before.

Moreover, this Millelith soldier had mastered a miraculous Art of Sword Flight, which looked incredible.

"Then I'll just go with him."

Hearing Ganyu's words, Yelan smiled and said: "If he is willing, he can be a very good assistant for this trip to The Chasm."

"Go with him to The Chasm?"

Hearing Yelan's words, Ganyu nodded gently: "That's fine, but in that case, your merit will be shared. When the situation in The Chasm is resolved, your merit will be halved."

"For me, merit or whatever is no longer important."

Hearing Ganyu's words, Yelan shook her head gently: "I'm doing quite well in my current position. Besides some trivial matters sometimes, there is nothing else to be busy with, and I can even steal some leisure time."

"But I can't decide Lin Mo's destination, and Lin Mo might not necessarily go. I'll go ask him tonight."

She had told Lin Mo before that she was going to The Chasm, and Lin Mo's expression seemed a bit strange at the time.

"That's fine."

Hearing Yelan's words, Ganyu nodded: "I'll leave The Chasm to you. This is the official order I prepared for you."

"After you go there, you can unconditionally command the General Affairs Office personnel and Millelith soldiers stationed there."

"Not many people know your identity, Yelan; the only one who seems to know is Mu Ning."

"Hmm."

Hearing Ganyu's words, Yelan nodded and accepted it gladly.

Having an official order would be much more convenient.

Ningguang had one, Uncle Tian had given her one, and now Ganyu had given her one too.

"By the way, do you know about Uncle Tian's situation?"

As she was speaking, Yelan suddenly thought of something and said: "I just met Uncle Tian."

Saying this, Yelan briefly recounted what she had discussed with Uncle Tian.

"I know a little."

Ganyu nodded gently: "Uncle Tian already feels that he is not up to the task, so he is thinking of retiring. It's not that some Liyue Qixing haven't stepped down early in the past, but the successor is still a problem."

"I am also observing, but I remember that Uncle Tian seems to have a proud disciple, and I don't know if Uncle Tian will let that person take over."

While Yelan and Ganyu were communicating.

In Wanmin Restaurant.

Lin Mo had already waited for the delicacies prepared by Chef Mao.

After eating and drinking his fill, he did the same as before, ordered thirty bowls of Jade Fruit Soup from Chef Mao, left Wanmin Restaurant with Wen Qi, and walked towards the outside of Liyue City.

Following the direction from Liyue Harbor to the outside of Liyue City, Lin Mo walked under the deep blue night sky and found that the building complex of Liyue Harbor emitted a warm light, like bright gems embedded under the treasure-blue sky.

Ships with dim lights floated on the water of Liyue Harbor; they were like fireflies dotted on the quiet lake, bringing vitality to the night.

Lin Mo walked across the ancient wooden bridge, and the water under the bridge reflected the scene of the lights coming on, like a dreamlike reflection.

Various small vendors filled both sides of the street, and the vendors' hawking, the tourists' discussions, and the occasional laughter intertwined, forming the unique music of this city.

Every time he saw the night view of Liyue, Lin Mo exclaimed in his heart.

It was too beautiful.

Different from the night view of the Luofu, the night view of Liyue Harbor was also unique.

Those ancient buildings each seemed to have hundreds of years of stories. Red lanterns swayed gently in the wind, casting golden light onto the earth, adding a touch of romantic color to the night of Liyue Harbor, full of the atmosphere of human fireworks.

"Good evening."

When Lin Mo walked out of Liyue City and returned to a certain part of the Sea of Clouds base he was responsible for, a figure was walking from a distance, smiling and speaking to Lin Mo.

This figure seemed to have been waiting here for a while.
