He avoided Themis' gaze and didn't dare to look her in the eye.

He just said very stubbornly, "Thank you very much, Lady Benfenina, for your care. As the regent of this water god, how can you appear in front of the public like this?"

"I was really just thinking about the public image issue and didn't think much about it!"

The volume of the second half of the sentence is emphasized, giving off a guilty conscience.

However, Furninna may have subconsciously ignored how fragile her excuse was.

In fact, it was just licking the index finger. How much impact could it have on the public image?

It would be better to say that apart from Furninna herself, no third person would know about this matter.

Themis' heart was filled with smiles. Lady Finina, who was so stubborn, was doubly adorable.

Without exposing Fernina's lie, Themis just said obediently, "Okay, Lady Fernina."

Hearing Themis' answer, Feninna breathed a sigh of relief and her eyes fell on Themis's hand. Feninna was wiping it carefully with a napkin.

Themis' hands are white and slender, with distinct joints, and her nails are trimmed in a round shape, with a healthy light pink color on the fingertips.

Finina wiped off the saliva residue with a tissue and squeezed Themis' hand with her fingers curiously.

In Funina's impression, most people have calluses on their hands due to their jobs.

But Themis's hands were well maintained and comparable to hers.

Holding Themis' wrist, Finina compared the two people's fingers.

There was a whole knuckle shorter, and Furninna's unreasonable desire to compare herself with others made her cover it with her whole hands in disbelief.

He placed his palms against each other and compared them.

"Lady Furninna, mine seems to be longer."

Themis' somewhat cold voice came out, bringing Furninna back to her senses as she was comparing the length of her fingers.

"……Well……"

Finina raised her head and their eyes met Themis's in mid-air.

There was only her own reflection in Themis's sparkling golden eyes.

The covered hand hooked mischievously, and the fingertips slid into the edge of the glove and hooked with the fingers in the glove.

"If we do this, will the comparison be clearer?"

Themis lowered her head and spoke softly in a low voice.

With her fingers clasped in gloves, Finina, sitting on a chair in the room, stared blankly at Themis' face that was getting closer and closer. Her whole petite body was shrouded in Themis' shadow, and her brain was unable to react.

"Lady Funina..."

Unable to help but raise her voice a little, Themis asked, "Is today's cake delicious?"

"good to eat……"

Finina felt a little dazed, her brain was blank and like a mess of paste, she could only hear her own stupid responses.

"Can I have a taste of yours?"

Regent Themis asked relentlessly, with a smile of triumph on her usually serious face.

"Ugh?"

Try my...? cake?

Funina's thoughts were in a mess and her brain was a little confused.

The next second, I felt my chin being gently lifted by fingers, and a gentle, feather-like warm kiss falling. My white snow-white hair fell down and fell beside my ears, feeling a little itchy.

Finina only felt a warm breath spraying on her face, and then she saw Themis's face gradually moving away.

The kiss came suddenly and ended quickly. Only when it ended did Funina wake up from her dream.

He pulled away, putting some distance between them.

Themis reached out and gently stroked Fininna's face, her golden eyes intertwined with her blue eyes, only reflecting each other's figures.

"Lady Funina, please be more careful next time."

"You are really easy to be violated if you are like this."

"Also, the cake is delicious, very soft and fragrant..."

The long feathers hung down, covering the surging emotions in her eyes. After leaving these words, Themi turned around without hesitation and strode away from the airship.

But beneath the snow-white hair, the round earlobes were already covered with blush.

At this moment, the airship has arrived at the Opikley Opera House, and there is still some work to be done.

The moment she stepped out of the house and closed the door, Themis, who had a well-developed hearing, heard the cry of a small animal coming from the house.

It can be heard that this matter was a little too advanced for Funina and had a great impact on her.

At this moment, on the other side...

Far away in Hailu Port, the traveler Ying, who had just helped Linny distribute magic pockets, finally set out for Fontaine Garden with Paimon.

Paimon: "Are we going to Fontaine by this? What an advanced means of transportation... The people of Fontaine really know how to use water."

Looking at the ships anchored on the waterway, Paimon flew over and observed curiously.

Lini: "This is a 'track patrol ship', connecting the various important places in Fontaine."

"It's indeed quite convenient, but it gets a bit boring after sitting for too long, as the scenery along the way is always the same, so I need friends like you."

Linnet: "So what you mean is that even if I chat with you, you'll still get bored?"

Lini was embarrassed by the question from his sister, and he quickly explained, "Ah... No, no, that's not what I meant. You see, uh... You usually don't talk much..."

Linny: "And when I'm out with you, I don't feel like I'm traveling... It's like being at home... Right, haha..."

An awkward laugh sounded, and Linnet retracted her death stare.

Paimon looked at the brother and sister getting along with each other and showed an understanding look, "As a brother, you can never do anything with your sister..."

Linny: "Haha, it's almost time, let's hurry up and get on the boat."

Just as Linni was leading Ying and Paimon onto the boat, hurried footsteps were heard behind them.

In the last few seconds before the patrol ship set off, a pink figure took a big step forward and caught up with the ship.

Paimon: "Alas!"

Looking at this familiar person, Paimon was the first to exclaim.

Hearing the voice, Charlotte looked up, and when she saw the people in front of her, her eyes widened in shock.

Charlotte: "Ying, Paimon?"

Paimon: "Charlotte!!"

Ying: "Charlotte!"

Charlotte was very excited to see the two people, and her tone was full of excitement. "I never thought I would meet you on the patrol ship. This should be considered as explosive news in my life!"

"How did you come to Fontaine? I never heard of your coming to Fontaine."

Paimon: "Hey, what a coincidence to meet you. Travelers like us usually travel around everywhere, so it's normal that no one knows we're in Fontaine..."

In Paimon's mind, he had automatically excluded Furninna.

After all, Finina is the god of the Water Kingdom, not a human. It is not natural for her to know the whereabouts of Ying and herself.

Paimon: "Uh... I don't know how the Water God knew that. Oh, by the way, these two are friends we just met..."

Charlotte looked at Linny and Linnet beside Paimon, without much surprise, after all, they were all acquaintances.

"I won't bother introducing you to Paimon. It's the famous magician Mr. Linnie and his sister and assistant Ms. Linnet..."

Charlotte: "If I don't even know these two, I won't be a reporter. It's an honor to meet you two today. I'm Charlotte, a reporter from Steambird Newspaper."

Linnie: "Nice to meet you. You are a reporter from Steambird Newspaper. We have often relied on your newspaper for the promotion of many of our performances."

Lynette: "It's an honor to meet you."

Paimon: "Hmm~ We are all familiar with each other. It seems that the country of Fontaine is not so strange all of a sudden!"

Paimon: "By the way, what has Charlotte been busy with recently? Is there any big news?"

Charlotte: "Recently... it's been okay. When I don't have much news material, I just report on some recent cases at the opera house..."

“As long as you report the same thing from a tricky enough angle, you can still catch the readers’ attention.”

"For example, reporting on how fraudsters used to deceive girls' feelings, and reporting on the poor experience of economic criminals who had to eat only one piece of bread for five days..."

Ying: "It seems... quite attractive..."

If you think about it carefully, this kind of news is indeed very curious.

In particular, Ying thought of Miss Mona, a great astrologer far away in Mond.

I can interview Mona later. After all, Mona’s experience in staying alive is almost unmatched!

.......................

“I didn’t expect to meet Charlotte here, but if I think about it carefully, Charlotte is originally from Fontaine, so it’s not strange to meet her.”

However, when Maomao Buzuoyao saw the case mentioned by Charlotte, for some reason, he instantly thought of Mona from Mondstadt.

"My goodness, you can eat one piece of bread for five days, and then turn on the tap and drink water for another seven or eight days, right? You didn't starve to death, you're awesome!"

"I really need this kind of practical little trick!"

"Damn it! Salmon, I order you to show me the method as soon as possible!"

"Qiongbi said that the topic of this report is quite hot, and it can quickly achieve cost-cutting by increasing revenue and reducing expenditure."

"I don't know why, but when I heard this I thought of Mona."

"Mona's real estate, right?"

"I was different. I thought directly of Hypatia..."

"Let's not talk about this for now. I'd rather know the tricks that scammers use to win over girls. I really need them!"

"How can I make my wife Themis fall in love with me?"

Today, Miss Maomao who doesn't take medicine is still on the road of promoting Themis.

...........................

"Of course, if we talk about the most popular and talked-about case in the opera house recently, it must be the murder case involving Lady Themis!"

Speaking of this, Charlotte felt very sorry that she couldn't interview the person involved, Themis. It was a huge loss.

"The murder case. This case was mentioned by someone when Ying and I were at the port before."

Paimeng said this out of curiosity. He originally wanted to buy a newspaper, but suddenly he remembered that the person in front of him was a journalist.

"It cost a full ten million Mora..." Ying muttered to herself, there was nothing good to do with so much money.

Isn't it just to meet Themis? If you give this money to a traveler like her, she can also provide an opportunity for face-to-face communication!

"This case is indeed very hot, and it was just heard two days ago. It can only be said that it is full of dramatic developments."

Linnie couldn't help laughing when he thought about the whole report he had seen in the newspaper.

"So, what exactly was the process like? Why do you all seem to laugh whenever you mention this case?"

Paimon stomped his feet in the air with an expression that said, "I'm very curious, tell me quickly."

Seeing that Paimon was so interested, Charlotte and Linnie recounted the entire process of the case one after another.

"Uh... well, it seems like even big shots have their own troubles."

Paimon expressed sympathy for Themis's plight.
