Genshin Impact: Starting from Liyue to Build Infrastructure

The rich man was immediately puzzled.

"Your Majesty the Empress, don't you know that the financial performance of Snezhnaya has been sluggish recently?"

His face was full of pain, but he still obeyed the order and provided the Mora that Childe needed.

Childe, having received the money, snorted coldly and immediately left.

The wind was rustling, and the waters were cold.

"Brothers, here I go!"

With this thought, Childe departed, heading home first to settle things with his younger brother. If he truly couldn't return, at least his brother would be well taken care of.

Why so much money?

Of course, it was to bribe Zhongli.

He still had hopes of clearing his name. Being wanted by Liyue was troublesome. There were too many people in Liyue, and even if he went to other countries, he risked being recognized and beaten up at any moment.

He had even been attacked by Liyue citizens in Snezhnaya before.

Liyue people were too crazy.

After Childe settled his affairs, he set off directly for Liyue.

Meanwhile, Takumi had already returned home from work.

With the Moon Festival approaching, the streets were decorated with lanterns and streamers. Even the fireworks at Yoimiya's shop had sold out. Fortunately, Beidou had returned just in time and helped her restock with more fireworks, or she would have had to close her shop early.

On another side, Kamisato Ayaka had also returned to Guili Plains.

She wasn't alone—Sangonomiya Kokomi was with her.

Takumi saw Kokomi sitting near his house, sipping tea elegantly, and couldn't help but pause.

"Good evening!"

"Excuse me for the sudden visit," Kokomi said politely. "I am Sangonomiya Kokomi from Watatsumi Island. Please take care of me, Mister Takumi."

Seeing Takumi return home, Kokomi greeted him with a smile.

Takumi nodded. "Hello!"

I want to eat caviar!

Takumi almost blurted it out but held back.

At that moment, Ayaka spoke up.

"Kokomi came here to study."

"Takumi, she wants to enroll in a school here. Is that possible?"

That was Kokomi's reason for coming to Liyue.

With Watatsumi Island now having access to television and the internet, Kokomi had learned a lot about Liyue and became curious about its education system.

So, when Ayaka returned to Inazuma, Kokomi approached her and expressed her desire to study in Liyue.

After hearing Kokomi's request, Ayaka didn't refuse and brought her to Liyue.

The elegant clothes Kokomi wore had also been prepared by Ayaka.

"You want to study? That's fine."

"When the time comes, you can start attending classes. I'll handle the arrangements for you."

Hearing this, Kokomi immediately expressed her gratitude.

"Thank you, Mister Takumi! That would be a great help."

She sighed in relief.

She knew about Takumi—this man was the reason Liyue had developed so much. Moreover, as she had learned, it was Takumi who had helped restore Inazuma's stability.

To Kokomi, Takumi was an incredibly powerful person.

She couldn't help but admire him.

Takumi noticed Kokomi's gaze and was amused.

She seemed like someone easy to tease.

Just as Takumi was having these thoughts, Klee and the others returned.

"It's vacation time!"

"Takumi big brother, let's go out tomorrow!!"

As soon as Klee ran in, she rushed to Takumi excitedly.

Hearing Klee's request, Takumi smiled.

"Alright!"

"I'll take you out to play tomorrow."

Takumi had no reason to refuse. This was a good opportunity to spend time with Klee.

After all, it had been a while since they last had fun together.

"Yay!!"

"Huh? Who is this sister?"

At that moment, Klee finally noticed Kokomi and Ayaka.

"I am Sangonomiya Kokomi from Watatsumi Island."

"Hello, little one!"

Seeing the adorable Klee, Kokomi's eyes sparkled.

She was such a cute child!

She wanted to hug her.

But Klee's energy levels were skyrocketing.

So adorable!

"Hello, Sister Kokomi!"

"I'm Klee, the Spark Knight of the Knights of Favonius, from Liyue!!"

Hearing this, Kokomi was momentarily confused.

A Liyue citizen in the Knights of Favonius?

Had Mondstadt been conquered by Liyue?

Ah, this...

"Klee, if Jean hears this, you're going to get in trouble."

At that moment, Eula, Amber, Lumine, and others entered from outside.

Hearing Eula's words, Klee giggled.

"I'm not scared since Captain Jean isn't here!"

Klee puffed up her chest proudly.

"But I recorded it."

Her confidence vanished in an instant when Amber raised her phone with a smirk.

(*.A)0°

Klee panicked.

"Sister Amber, Sister Amber!!"

"No, delete it quickly!!"

"Don't let Captain Jean see it!!"

She was terrified.

Really terrified!

She didn't want to be scolded by Captain Jean.

Amber grinned mischievously and teased Klee.

"So, you're all back."

"This is Kokomi from Inazuma."

Takumi introduced Kokomi to the group.

Lumine and Eula looked at Kokomi curiously.

Such a delicate and graceful girl.

That was Lumine's first impression.

She looked soft and fragile, like someone who would crumble with a single punch.

"Hello!"

Kokomi greeted everyone warmly.

Before long, they all started chatting.

As the evening wore on, Xiangling arrived.

She greeted everyone and went straight into the kitchen to help prepare dinner.

It was Noelle who had invited her over—after all, with so many people dining at Takumi's house, extra help was needed.

Takumi, Shenhe, Keqing, Ganyu, Klee, Yaoyao, Qiqi, Diona, Eula, Amber, Lumine, Paimon, Kokomi, Yae Miko...

Even the children had a seat at the table.

Takumi considered sitting at the kids' table too.

Once dinner was ready, everyone gathered and enjoyed the meal together.

Before everyone left, Takumi handed each person a box of mooncakes.

With mooncakes in hand, everyone went their separate ways.

Tomorrow was the Moon Festival.

Of course, everyone knew about mooncakes by now.

They were a traditional delicacy from Takumi's homeland.

They tasted amazing.

As Lumine gazed at the mooncakes, she felt a strange sense of familiarity.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't remember why.

Her memories were still lost.

It was frustrating.

Maybe… she could ask Takumi for help.

Perhaps he could help her recover what she had forgotten.
