Genshin Impact: The 12th Fatui Harbinger

Chapter 229

After leaving a letter for Scaramouche at the Fatui hideout, Bai Luo hung his mask on his belt and walked back onto the streets of Inazuma.

During the days Bai Luo was away, Inazuma City had undergone some changes.

For example, although there were fewer people on the streets, it had become somewhat peaceful.

This was because those with Visions had either been captured or had fled to the resistance.

Those who still wore Visions in Inazuma City were all individuals recognized by the Shogun.

The impact of the Vision Hunt Decree on Inazuma City had basically subsided.

However, some merchants still sighed in despair because the Sakoku Decree, issued along with the Vision Hunt Decree, had also significantly reduced the number of foreign tourists in Inazuma City.

This, in turn, led to a substantial decrease in their income.

It was said that the Kanjou Commission in Ritou was even more outrageous, practically plucking the feathers from a passing wild goose. This also made it impossible for the international merchant guilds there to come to Inazuma City to do business with them.

"Boss, it's better to be a bit more behaved in Inazuma City."

The girl wearing a face guard supported the Oni beside her and said in a low voice.

If it weren't for him mistakenly eating a fruit of unknown origin, almost turning from the well-known Oni of Hanamizaka into a well-known ghost, and Kuki Shinobu not trusting the other guys in the Arataki Gang to take care of him, she would never have brought him along.

"What... what kind of joke is that? If this great one were to be well-behaved, would I still be called Arataki Itto?"

In fact, Arataki Itto was also a bit puzzled.

That fruit mixed in with the roasted Lavender Melons clearly looked a bit like a faded Lavender Melon.

But its power was comparable to that of beans.

Even with fox ramen with added fried tofu, he could eat dozens of bowls if he gritted his teeth.

But this faded Lavender Melon had knocked him out directly.

Hmm... just like sprouted potatoes should be thrown away, faded Lavender Melons should not be eaten.

This great one seems to have discovered a rule that no one else knows.

As expected of me.

"I'm warning you beforehand, that general of the Tenryou Commission has been transferred to the front lines. The person replacing her now is someone else. If you get into trouble again, there will be no one to change your charge of trespassing into a private residence to a violation of public order."

Kuki Shinobu and Kujou Sara were old acquaintances, so she knew very well that if it weren't for Kujou Sara, who knows how long her boss would have had to squat in jail.

Now that she had been transferred, who knew who the new general replacing her was?

He would definitely not be like that Tengu, who would help her boss out a bit seeing that he was also of a different race.

Her boss was still easily targeted in Inazuma City.

"Just say it directly, can you get me out or not?"

Arataki Itto was completely bewildered by what Kuki Shinobu was saying about private residences and public order.

He only cared about one thing.

Could his lovely subordinate get him out?

"I can."

Kuki Shinobu gave her answer with almost no hesitation.

Having studied under a great master of Liyue's legal studies, she was still confident in her ability to get her boss out of jail.

[A/N: I wonder if that great master is Yanfei!?. By the way are their still any Yanfei Dps]

The premise was that the current general of the Tenryou Commission was a law-abiding person.

If even the one in power regarded the law as nothing, then no matter how strong a legal consultant was, it would just be empty talk.

"Hahahahahahaha! With your words, I can rest assured."

"..."

Kuki Shinobu didn't know if it was her imagination, but she felt like her boss was about to cause trouble again.

*Hahahahahahahahahahahaha*

After arriving at the main street, Kuki Shinobu looked at the crowded streets and her gaze drifted to Arataki Itto beside her.

With his personality, he would definitely cause trouble in a place like this. It would be better to...

"Boss, you stay here. Don't move. I'll go buy some Lavender Melons."

"Lavender Melons? Don't buy the ones that fade. Trust me!"

Upon hearing "Lavender Melons," Arataki Itto's face first lit up with joy, but he quickly realized something and hurriedly said.

He felt it was necessary to inform her of the Lavender Melon identification method he had discovered at the cost of his own life.

"Sigh, I know."

Shaking her head helplessly, Kuki Shinobu no longer wanted to waste her breath telling him that thing wasn't a Lavender Melon at all.

Sometimes, ignorance is a kind of bliss.

Kuki Shinobu was very fast when she went shopping, only taking a few minutes.

But in just those few minutes, when she returned, she could no longer see Arataki Itto.

The bag full of fruits in her hand fell to the ground with a thud.

"Where's my boss?"

Looking at the empty street corner, Kuki Shinobu suddenly had a bad premonition.

In fact, Arataki Itto hadn't gone to cause trouble. He knew very well how difficult it was for Kuki Shinobu to bring him out, so he didn't want to make her angry.

But because of that fruit, he hadn't eaten for a long time and was drawn away by a fragrant aroma.

"Boss! A bowl of udon noodles!"

Taking out his comb and stylishly tidying up his handsome hairstyle, Arataki Itto swaggered into Shimura's and ordered a bowl of udon.

Seeing the Oni beside them, some of the diners subconsciously moved aside.

Shimura Kanbei, the owner of Shimura's, was a former samurai, so his fear of oni was not as high as that of ordinary people.

In addition, while doing business here, he had often heard people talk about the Oni from Hanamizaka, so he did not treat Arataki Itto any differently.

"One bowl of udon, right?"

To him, as long as they were here to eat, they were his customers.

Customers were not to be distinguished by high or low status.

"Is there... any soy product in this udon?"

"Don't worry, I won't put any in at all."

Shimura Kanbei smiled. He naturally knew that Oni were allergic to soy products.

So, he would refrain from adding fried tofu, which was used as a side dish, without compromising the original flavor of the udon.

Arataki Itto had originally intended to taste this noodle with a critical attitude, because this type of food had once left him with a considerable trauma.

If he hadn't smelled the aroma, he wouldn't have been willing to order it.

But when he truly tasted this udon, a blissful expression appeared on his face.

—This is so delicious! It's ninety-eight times more delicious than roasted Lavender Melons!

"Boss! Another bowl! My injured stomach needs the comfort of delicious food!"

After slurping down the entire bowl of noodles, Arataki Itto was still not satisfied and ordered another bowl.

After finishing, he patted his slightly protruding belly and was about to leave.

"Oni boy, you haven't paid yet."

"Get it from Shinobu."

Arataki Itto pointed behind him and said as if it were a matter of course.

When he went out with Kuki Shinobu, she was usually the one who paid. He just needed to eat, drink, and have fun.

"Who is Shinobu?"

Shimura Kanbei asked.

If he remembered correctly, this Oni had come here alone, right?

"Shinobu is, of course... hmm?"

After turning around, Arataki Itto suddenly realized there was no one behind him.

"Hmm?! Where's my Shinobu? Such a big Shinobu? How did she get lost?"

Looking at the empty space behind him, Arataki Itto started to panic.

Because when they went out, Kuki Shinobu, afraid that he would spend money recklessly, had specifically confiscated the money he had just earned from doing odd jobs at the docks.

In other words... he had no money at all.

"That Shinobu, really, how could she just run off like that?"

Arataki Itto seemed to have forgotten that it wasn't Shinobu who had run off, but him, who had been specifically told not to, who had run off.

Just as things were gradually heading in an unfavorable direction, a gentle and elegant voice sounded from the side.

"Boss, just put this oni boy's bill on Miss Sara's tab for now."
