Genshin Impact: Kurumi is shocked, the God of Light is right beside her.

Chapter 246 Wuyou Pavilion, Gathering Intelligence

As for Paimon, she was afraid that if the bad guys were well-informed, they might have already planted spies all over the place, and anyone who went in would be silenced!

Barbatos, who was standing next to her, swaggered in after smelling the alcohol in the room.

After the expected sounds of fighting failed to materialize, Paimon finally lowered his guard and followed Ying into the restaurant.

After entering the room and looking around, the group did not find any suspicious persons.

Inside the room, there were only some diners chatting idly, as well as waiters and the owner diligently doing their jobs.

"Among the new publications released at the final stage of the Rongcai Festival, the one I'm most looking forward to is 'The Record of Chen Qiu Picking Up the Sword'!"

"Yes, the first-edition signed copy is so valuable to collectors, I definitely have to get my hands on it!"

Two diners were sitting in the hall, chatting and laughing.

"The autographs of Mr. Zhenyu that I saw before were very neat, and I felt that he was a very serious person."

"He'll be there in person on the day of the launch, so we should be able to see him then. I heard he's very young!"

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled expectantly.

Meanwhile, the group of people who had been pretending to wander around paused and walked towards a corner.

Seeing that no one nearby was paying attention to them, the group began to talk quietly.

"This 'Pillow Jade' must be Xingqiu's pen name..."

"Hmm... Xingqiu and I often exchanged letters. I remember... his handwriting, while not difficult to read, was definitely not neat. At most, it was just readable with a few personal touches."

"So that means... could it be..."

"Yes."

After saying that, the group nodded in unison and walked towards the shop owner.

"Boss, do you have any recommended dishes today?"

"Haha, of course, it's freshly caught seafood! The sea was very rough a few days ago, and many fishing boats didn't set sail. This seafood is only available today because the weather has improved."

After saying that, the owner smiled confidently, seemingly very confident in his restaurant's signature dish.

"Oh? Boss, was the weather at sea bad the other day?"

"Yes, just now a few guests from Liyue said that the ship rocked terribly the whole way, and they couldn't do anything but sleep!"

After saying that, the boss gently scratched the back of his head.

"Wow~ It seems we've gotten some really important information~"

Paimon, who was standing nearby, began to celebrate quietly after hearing this.

The group then entered the private room and sat quietly, waiting for the kitchen to serve the dishes, and also for Xingqiu to arrive...

After a while.

As several steaming bowls of seafood dishes were served, Xingqiu walked into the private room with a book in his hand and waved to greet the others.

"Haha, these novels are really interesting, I almost lost track of time. Luckily I bought a few books, so I can savor them when I have time later."

After saying that, he casually found a seat and sat down.

"I'm glad you like it."

Abedo nodded in acknowledgment as he watched Xingqiu's movements.

Then... in a moment of silence, the group looked at each other, and no one spoke.

Finally, unable to bear it any longer, Paimon quickly stepped in to smooth things over, suggesting that everyone eat first.
