If she hadn't dealt with the Fatui so often and knew their habits, she might not have known that Bai Luo had sent people to investigate these things.
What about her subordinates
This also means that those so-called elites sent there are most likely all baits to deceive the public.
Bai Luo's real goal is
"Um... Nadia, I want to tell you something."
A Liyue dialect with a slight winter accent sounded beside her. Ye Lan glanced sideways and found that they were two people wearing Fatui uniforms.
They did not take off their masks while visiting the Lantern Festival.
"Firewater! Firewater in winter! It will give you a different feeling!"
In Liyue, the winter merchants, who were also wearing thick cloaks, were working hard to promote the products they brought.
He even accidentally made eye contact with Ye Lan.
"Ice Furnace Festival is still the best..."
A high-ranking Fatui holding a wine jug in front of the stall was looking up at the clouds in the sky, sighing with homesickness.
when
Since when did so many people from the Winter Solstice appear at the Lantern Festival
She knew that the two Fatui who seemed to be in love had ordinary identities and their experiences in Liyue were also ordinary, so ordinary that there was nothing wrong with them.
But they came to the Lantern Festival when they were supposed to be at work.
Do the Fatui also have a holiday during the Lantern Festival? Ye Lan didn't know this. Ever since Bai Luo came to Liyue, she had focused almost all her energy on him.
Because compared to him, everything is trivial.
But she knew that the appearance of so many Fatui at the Lantern Festival was definitely not good news.
In other words... those so-called Fatui elites were just used by Bai Luo to confuse her.
And these Fatui scattered around the Lantern Festival are Bai Luo’s real plan
"What's wrong?"
Noticing Ye Lan standing there in a daze, Bai Luo asked.
That innocent little expression, as if he really had no idea what was going on.
"Nothing, just thinking about work."
Ye Lan only reacted when Bai Luo's voice rang out.
She instantly regained her previous calm feeling, and the panic in her eyes disappeared.
Bai Luo’s acting is very good, and Ye Lan’s acting is not bad either.
She walked to Bai Luo again as if nothing had happened and naturally took his hand.
Even his trembling hands and accelerated heartbeat returned to their previous state.
But this time, Bai Luo pulled his hand out and placed it on her shoulder, then turned it so that she was facing him and leaned over to whisper in her ear.
"The person who just sent us the Xiao Lantern was one of your men, right?"
"... ..."
On the surface, there wasn't much change, but the Xiao Deng had gradually deformed, indicating that Ye Lan's heart was not as calm as it seemed on the surface.
"It's okay, go ahead and check whatever needs to be checked. This is your job after all."
After carefully wiping away the sweat from Ye Lan's forehead and tidying up her side bangs, Bai Luo once again showed that sunny smile on his face.
Dressed in all black, he gives people the feeling of the big brother next door.
People who don’t know his true colors, when seeing this kind of smile, might feel like they are being illuminated by the sun, and even the worries in their hearts will be cleared away.
But Ye Lan, who was looking directly at Bai Luo, had her eyes trembling slightly.
She, Ningguang, and countless Qianyan soldiers were so worried about Bai Luo that they couldn't sleep at night.
But their step-by-step planning resulted in a simple reply: "Check whatever needs to be checked."
This made her feel a sense of powerlessness deep in her heart.
It's like a newborn lamb facing a ferocious tiger.
While the lambs were painstakingly planning how to escape from the tiger's claws, the tiger was lazily licking its paws beside them, watching their carefully prepared plan.
And the Tigers didn't even take those so-called plans seriously.
I watched their performance with great interest.
After all, how can a lamb defeat a tiger
Chapter 802 Something big is going to happen tonight
Bai Luo is scary.
His terrifying side is not only reflected in his strength.
He is also terrible in controlling the overall situation, handling details, and controlling people's hearts.
And this guy's mind is unpredictable, and it's hard to guess what he wants to do.
But if we don't guess, the danger he poses is hard to ignore.
This made Ye Lan, who loved playing hunting games with her "prey", feel deeply powerless.
That’s right, what she likes is the feeling of “hunting”, not the feeling of being toyed with like a prey. It would be strange if she could feel comfortable in that feeling.
"That's all for today. Tomorrow is the last day of the Sea Lantern Festival, so go to bed early."
After noticing a traveler carrying emergency food among the crowd, Bai Luo calmly ended his sightseeing plan.
Ye Lan, who followed him and tried to calm herself down, did not reject him.
Because for her, the most important thing now is to organize her thoughts, sort out all the details, and figure out what Bai Luo is trying to do.
Only when she has thoroughly understood these things, will she be able to regain the ease she deserves when facing Bai Luo.
I guess so
Looking at Ye Lan's hurriedly departing back, a smile gradually appeared on Bai Luo's lips.
Compared to some idiots, he still prefers dealing with these smart people.
Not just because it would be more fulfilling to win against them.
Human wisdom sometimes not only brings benefits to people, but also brings endless troubles.
It will not only magnify the details, but also some unnecessary things, which will affect their judgment.
What is in their brains sometimes becomes a burden to them.
Sooner or later, people will be guilty of what is in their heads, and no one can escape it.
"Mr. Executive."
As soon as he entered the Yanshang Tea House, a debt handler appeared beside Bai Luo impatiently and bowed respectfully.
"How is the task assigned to you going?"
There were no customers in the store at this time, and the only people left in the store were family members, so Bai Luo didn't have any reservations.
"Including the stocks in the warehouses of the major chambers of commerce, I have led people to search for all the fireworks in Liyue, but... the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is a little reluctant to cooperate with us."
The debt handler lowered his head a little nervously and spoke.
Feiyun Chamber of Commerce is considered a well-known chamber of commerce in Liyue. Their business is very large in the continent of Teyvat, and they are also one of the organizations that are not very afraid of the Fatui.
If you use force
"No problem, these equivalents should be enough."
Looking at the list handed over by his men, Bai Luo nodded slightly.
In addition to the General Affairs Department, the Southern Cross Fleet and the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, his men basically brought over all the fireworks in Liyue.
Even if it was just for a fireworks party, it would be enough, not to mention that his plan didn't require so many things.
But... ... if we're going to do something, let's do it on a big scale.
"After midnight tonight, send some people to the General Affairs Department's warehouse or the Feiyun Chamber of Commerce's warehouse to get some inventory. Remember! You can take less stuff, but you must not let them discover your true identity."
After putting away the list in his hand, Bai Luo gave instructions, and he especially emphasized the last sentence.
"yes!"
The debt handler who received the order bowed and quietly disappeared into the Yanshang Tea House.
Bai Luo looked meaningfully at the people coming and going outside the door, and his signature smile appeared on his face again.
"Ningguang isn't here?"
Ye Lan, whose complexion had recovered a lot, frowned slightly again.
"Yes, Lord Tianquanxing prepared some generous gifts and went to Jueyunjian. It seems that he went to visit the immortals."
As one of Ningguang's three confidants, Bai Wen also knew of Ye Lan's existence, so he did not hide the whereabouts of his Lord Tianquan Star.
"Is that so..."
Thinking about it carefully, Ningguang did mention before that she wanted to improve the relationship between the Seven Stars and the immortals, and she would give the immortals some gifts after finishing her work.
It doesn’t matter what you give as a gift; what matters is that the gift is conveyed.
"If you have anything to tell Lord Tianquanxing, please tell me first and I will convey it to you."
"No...it's nothing serious. Let's talk about it after she comes back."
After being betrayed once by his "carefully selected" men, Ye Lan no longer fully trusted these so-called confidants.
Sure enough, trust is something that will lead people into the abyss.
After making sure that Ningguang could not be relied upon for the time being, Ye Lan did not stay here for long, but chose to return to the house she rented near Yanshang Tea House.
[Tomorrow is the last day of the Sea Lantern Festival, so go to bed early. ]
Tossing the dice in her hand, Ye Lan half leaned against the window, her eyes occasionally scanning the area around the Yanshang Tea House.
Although it might sound a bit like boosting other people's morale, she felt that Bai Luo's words should be more like a hint.
Yes, tomorrow is the last day of the Lantern Festival. If he wants to cause trouble, he can only do it tomorrow.
But now, she couldn't even figure out what the other party was trying to do.
well.
"Lord Ye Lan, news has come from the merchants you asked me to keep an eye on."
Shang Hua knocked on the door and spoke.
"Bring it in."
After hearing Shang Hua's words, Ye Lan became excited.
This might be the best news she has received in recent times
After receiving the order, Shang Hua quickly handed the information he had sorted out to Ye Lan.
"According to our observations, the Fatui have secretly contacted several chambers of commerce, and these chambers of commerce all have the same characteristics."
“They have a partnership with the General Services Department and are the fireworks provider for the General Services Department.”
Just by glancing at the list, Ye Lan could tell what made them special.
The manufacture of sky lanterns involves two parts of materials.
One part is the materials for the sky lanterns prepared by merchants and vendors, and the other part is the fireworks and firecrackers provided by these chambers of commerce and businesses.
The Fools will come after them, and their purpose is self-evident.
"Sure enough, he is planning to take over the Mingxiao Lantern?"
Looking up in the direction of the port, the Mingxiao Lantern, which was almost completed, was standing tall above the port.
As the finale of the entire Lantern Festival, the Mingxiao Lantern represents not only the Liyue people’s longing for the heroes, but also the dignity of Liyue and the Seven Stars.
