Not long after returning to Liyue, Lumine and Paimon received a notification from the Crux Fleet, and the two quickly packed their things and rushed over.
The Alcor was docked near Guyun Stone Forest, and by the time the two arrived, the fleet was already ready to set sail.
Beidou chuckled and teased them, "In the past, not even a storm could delay the Crux Fleet, but this time I've really given you face."
"We've kept you waiting, Captain! It's an honor."
"Haha, just a joke. You've arrived at just the right time; the fleet just finished preparing as well."
After some casual chat, the Alcor officially set sail!

Inazuma.
Yunling stood with her arms crossed, leaning against the wall:
"Second Sister, are you going to bail out the Boss again?"
How many times was this?
Forget it, she wouldn't think about it; it had been many times anyway, so many that she'd lost count.
Kuki Shinobu was also helpless, but he was her boss after all, so there was nothing she could do.
"Are you still using that 'mentally unstable' excuse this time?"
"Yes, do you want to come?"
Yunling waved her hand, saying she wouldn't go today. Today, she had something more important to do.
The Genshin Impact that her main consciousness was playing had been updated, and what did that mean?
Of course, it meant Lumine and Paimon were coming to Inazuma!
She remembered that their journey back to Inazuma wasn't very smooth, so shouldn't she go and "accidentally" meet them?
"Second Sister, I'm going to play with the little tanuki. You don't have to wait for me for dinner."
After Yunling finished speaking, she ran off before Kuki Shinobu could say anything.
Kuki Shinobu watched her departing back, shook her head, and didn't bother her.
Although little Yun loved to fight, she acted with great principle, so Kuki Shinobu wasn't particularly worried.
Now, the most important thing was the Boss, who was once again locked up in the Tenryou Commission.
Thinking of this, Kuki Shinobu couldn't help but feel a headache.
Ever since the Boss's vision was taken by Kujou Sara last time, the Boss had been like one possessed, posting his so-called 'challenges' everywhere.
So far, he had been arrested by the Tenryou Commission several times for disturbing the peace.
After the headache subsided, Kuki Shinobu still headed to the Tenryou Commission.

Player World.
After waiting for almost ten more days, Genshin Impact finally updated!
This time it was finally Inazuma; they could finally open the map!
With anticipation, Chen Xiyao also opened Genshin Impact.
While waiting for the update to load, she explained to the audience in her live stream.
"The country of Inazuma is based on a certain island nation (Japan), but it's not the same as that island nation, so don't confuse them, everyone."
The relationship between China and the island nation had always been poor, and Chen Xiyao didn't like the island nation either.
It was just that she didn't want to see the audience attack Genshin Impact because of this.
After all, she genuinely liked this game and the world within the game.
: "What the streamer wants to say is that Inazuma is Inazuma, and the island nation is the island nation, right?"
: "Although I have extreme disgust for the island nation, I wouldn't go so far as to attack the game itself."
: "Genshin Impact is launched worldwide, and the culture of each country in the game is based on real-world national cultures."
: "Go, streamer! Hurry up and fast-forward the plot; I'm getting a bit impatient!"

Teyvat.
Breaking through the lightning storm outside Inazuma, the Alcor finally arrived at the Inazuma port.
It was evening, and Lumine and Paimon saw Ritou from the ship, bathed in a golden glow, with cherry blossoms in full bloom, looking exceptionally beautiful.
Stepping off the ship, Thoma, who had been waiting there, immediately came forward to greet them.
"So, you finally made it. You sure kept me waiting, Captain."
"And these two stowaways... oh no, esteemed guests."
Lumine and Paimon immediately made a "shush" gesture!
Beidou introduced Thoma to Lumine, and when she introduced Lumine to Thoma, Thoma waved his hand:
"News of the foreign Traveler cannot even be blocked by Inazuma's lightning storms."
After Beidou left, Thoma first took Lumine and Paimon to register, and then went to the International Trade Association for long-term stay registration.
When they saw Thoma bargain two million Mora down to six hundred Mora, Lumine and Paimon also got their initial impression of Inazuma under its isolation policy.
How to put it, this impression wasn't very good.
At Thoma's request, the two went to the International Trade Association to inquire about the association's recent situation, and unconsciously began to help the association solve problems.

At the same time, a certain fellow who wanted to sneak into the main story also arrived at Ritou.
Foreigners couldn't leave Ritou, but after all, it was only foreigners who couldn't leave. For someone like Yunling, let alone Ritou, if she wanted to, she would even dare to break into Tenshukaku.
Of course, whether she could come out unscathed was another matter.
As long as she didn't encounter that rigid Marionette Shogun, even if she encountered Sara, given their relationship, Sara wouldn't make things difficult for her.
Upon arriving at Ritou, Yunling immediately began to wander around the island.
After searching for a while, she finally found Lumine and Paimon by the sea.
Yunling didn't make a sound. If she directly approached them like this, it would definitely be suspicious and inevitably lead to suspicion.
She quietly retreated to an upwind position not far from the two, then directly started a fire and began cooking.
It was well known that Paimon in the Genshin Impact was not very resistant to delicious food.
Although she didn't know if they were hungry now, as long as it was delicious, Paimon could force herself to eat a bit more.
Yunling was making barbecue this time. She had always been making many strange things, so no matter what she made, everyone in the Arataki Gang wouldn't find it strange.
Even Kuki Shinobu only thought it was just another one of her little sister's whimsical ideas.
After all, she (Shinobu) had watched her (Yunling) grow up since childhood, even if she had gone a little astray.
The smell of barbecue was very strong, making it perfect as a Paimon trap.
Besides, she hadn't eaten enough this morning, so an outdoor barbecue by the sea here would be nice!
---
Meanwhile, Lumine and Paimon were still anxious about not being able to leave Ritou. They had tried to sneak out several times, but were intercepted by guards each time.
Does that mean they have to go directly to the Kanjou Commission head himself?
Paimon stroked her chin: "...Although I have a lot of opinions about his subordinates, it seems we can only try."
"We're so famous, maybe he even admires us."
Paimon thought happily to herself.
Just then, a gust of wind blew past her nose, and Paimon's small eyes immediately lit up.
"Lumine, do you smell something fragrant?"
Lumine sniffed carefully and immediately smelled a very, very fragrant grilled meat scent, more fragrant than all the grilled meat they had eaten before!
Seeing that Lumine also smelled it, Paimon stomped her small feet excitedly:
"The smell is coming from over there. There's no rush to leave Ritou; let's go check it out first!"
She hadn't felt it before, but after smelling this fragrance, Lumine also felt a bit hungry.
However, was it not good for her and Paimon to just go over like that?
Lumine hesitated, but Paimon was already impatient, urging Lumine on.
Lumine had no choice but to go with Paimon to check it out.

Yunling, sitting by the sea grilling meat, heard the sounds coming from nearby, and her whole being became smug.
Hehe, Paimon trapping plan, success!
