Chapter 293: Seafood Set Meal for You
Inner world, beside the bamboo forest and stone table.
Gui Zhong picked up the magnifying glass in the token and looked at the projection screen, which showed Keqing and Qiqi's similar faces, eyes and hair colors. She couldn't help but touch her chin and click her tongue twice, but as smart as she was, she didn't come to any conclusion.
"From a general perspective, Yaoyao's guess is abrupt, but it is possible. However, the probability of hope is extremely small. Without definite evidence, it is just wishful thinking and empty talk."
"Morax, I understand what you mean, but I still hope Qiqi can find her past memories. At least knowing her past life experience is a kind of comfort."
Gui Zhong's face flashed with worry about the lovely Qiqi. Morax could actually see what she was thinking, and there was a rational light flashing in his golden amber eyes.
……
In the second time and space, in the continent of Teyvat, Liyue, the Hall of All People, the last private room in the corridor on the 5th floor.
In the private room with simple and relaxing decoration, Qiqi was very puzzled by the quiet environment at the moment. Keqing's expression was full of thought, as if she wanted to find similar answers from a lot of information to solve the problems she was facing.
Yaoyao stood beside Ye Li, with an unprecedented seriousness on her cute and fair face. She was nervous and expectant about the identity of her best friend.
Looking at the quiet atmosphere, where one could hear a pin drop, Ye Li had no choice but to speak, breaking the peaceful atmosphere.
"Well, Miss Keqing, although this is an abrupt question, whether it is possible or not depends on you going back to investigate. Qiqi's life experience is still a mystery. Mr. Bai Shu may know something about it."
"I see. You and I have just considered this. I will investigate Qiqi's matter. If her identity is confirmed, I will discuss it with Mr. Bai Shu."
Keqing's original gentle smile disappeared, replaced by a serious look. She did have some similarities between Qiqi and herself, but without evidence, she couldn't confirm it. However, from previous investigation data, the swordsmanship that Qiqi used to fight monsters did have some shadows of Yunlai's swordsmanship. She found it strange at first, but it was not until today that she suddenly understood.
"Qiqi... I don't know. Qiqi... feels very nervous."
At this moment, Qiqi realized that the focus of this topic was herself. A hint of clarity flashed across her eyes, and the inexplicable nervousness that followed made her feel like she was facing Hu Tao, but there was still a slight difference between the two.
"Don't be nervous, Qiqi. It's okay. Sister and brother just remembered something. We don't know if it's true or not."
Keqing squatted down with a gentle expression, looking directly into Qiqi's purple eyes which were the same as hers. She reached out and rubbed Qiqi's hair, using a head-patting move to calm the child's nervousness.
Seeing this scene, Ye Li reached out and gently patted Yaoyao's little head, smiling and said:
"Yaoyao, take Qiqi out to play. I have something to discuss with you."
"Okay, Brother Yeli, Yaoyao will take Qiqi out to play now, so she won't disturb you and Sister Keqing."
Although Yaoyao is young, she is sensible and smart. She can see Ye Li's intention, so she took small steps forward, pulled Qiqi, took the ball from Ye Li's hand, opened the door of the private room, and ran downstairs.
Seeing that the two children had been sent away, only Ye Li and Keqing were left in the private room. Keqing had originally wanted to leave because she had something urgent to do, but she stayed here.
"If you have any questions, please ask them first. I'm sure you, with your keen observation, can tell what I know."
Ye Li sat on the sofa calmly, looking at Keqing who was looking at him seriously, without any sense of nervousness at all.
"Originally, I had already agreed to ask you for help, but the sudden appearance of Qiqi made me feel awkward, so, Ye Li, tell me, what else do you know?"
At this moment, Keqing, with one hand on her waist, looked directly into Ye Li's gray-blue eyes, as if she wanted to see something from those eyes that had become deep and calm like water.
Ye Li did not hide anything in response to Keqing's question, but his wording was a bit roundabout, which left Keqing speechless for a moment.
"You need to ask the immortal about this. If you can't find it, maybe Mr. Zhongli knows something. After all, you and I both understand his knowledge."
"It's as if you didn't say anything. I guess I have to check it myself."
Keqing sighed helplessly, then turned and walked out of the private room. However, before she stepped out of the door, she turned around and reminded Ye Li:
"Please take care of the security facilities and designs for the Lantern Festival. After all, I hired you from Ningguang. If you're lazy, I'll have to challenge you. After all, I'm curious about how you defeated the Rock Helmet King."
After saying that, Keqing left with a smile, leaving Yeli alone in the private room with a bitter smile. In his heart, he felt both satisfied and helpless about Liyue's intelligence department.
However, the most important issue at the moment is not that Keqing knows that she killed the monster, but that there is a guy somewhere who has been eyeing this place for a long time.
Judging from the hidden familiar aura, this is most likely the master of mechanical engineering in this time and space, the legendary woman. Moreover, Grandma Ping is also there. Based on the analysis of the situation, I am afraid that I will have an encounter with her after leaving Wanmin Hall.
On the other side, Keqing, who had gone downstairs, had long lost the joyful smile she had when she solved someone's hidden puzzle and stunned him. Instead, she was filled with depression after paying a large sum of Mora. It was indeed too early for her to be happy.
Taking out her own black card, Keqing pressed the corresponding stamp on the bill of Wanmin Hall, allowing them to go to Liyue Bank to get the money, thus settling the bill.
Although Master Mao had a strange expression, he did not stop him. He had already known clearly about Ye Li's identity as a guest of the Wangsheng Hall. The habit of letting others pay the bill and the face similar to another guest of the Wangsheng Hall did not seem strange at all. Instead, he felt it was familiar and natural.
Half an hour later, Ye Li returned to the Wangsheng Hall with a box of packed vegetables.
He explained the situation to the gatekeeper and asked him to have the good wine and food from Wanmin Hall brought to Wangsheng Hall.
"Ye Li Ke Qing, aren't you staying for lunch?"
"No, I ate too much for breakfast. Besides, these dishes are prepared for you and the hall master. They won't taste good if they get cold. I still have things to deal with here, so I won't stay any longer."
Ye Li rejected his employee's suggestion. After all, there was still a street urchin outside. According to the current time, he should have already run to Heyu Teahouse to drink tea and listen to opera.
After hearing what Ye Li said, holding a packed wooden lunch box in his hand, the staff understood what he meant. After all, the Wangsheng Hall was so big, and it was not a new thing to deliver meals to two guests who looked similar, so they did not try to keep him.
……
At the Heyu Teahouse, Mr. Fan was directing the waiters to tidy up the stage and prepare for the next show, while Zhongli, who was sitting at a tea table in the corner, was also quietly waiting for the next show to begin.
Before long, the stage was set up. This time the show was about the legend between King Dust of Liyue and the Emperor. The performing troupes had also gradually gone onto the stage, ready to perform.
Just when Zhongli poured a cup of tea and prepared to listen to the opera, a wooden reusable lunch box was placed in front of him, and a familiar blue and white outfit came into view.
"Mr. Zhongli, it's almost noon now. You can't miss lunch. Come here, this is the seafood set meal that I, as a junior, would like to honor you. Eat it while it's hot. It will definitely leave you with an unforgettable aftertaste."
A similar cunning smile was reflected in Zhongli's golden eyes. A helpless bitter smile hung on his face, repeating a scene from the past with a sigh.
