Fate's Choice: Livestream at the Start Summoning Billions of Ravens

A week after the White House press conference, the global online buzz has not diminished in the slightest.

However, on Chinese social media, another trending news story continued to gain traction in a more subtle and bizarre way.

#Fufu's Shanghai Travel Guide#

This term has occupied the top ten spots on Weibo's trending topics list for three consecutive days.

Clicking on the entry reveals an electronic map of Shanghai that has been continuously updated by countless netizens.

The map is covered with numerous red landmarks.

Each location point represents Caster Funina's movements over the past week.

"First stop: Luneurs on Wukang Road. Fufu ate two scoops of pistachio ice cream and left Mora with one."

"Second stop: Lady M in Xintiandi. According to the staff, she stared at the mille-crepe cake for a full five minutes, and finally packed three to go, keeping one Mora cake."

"Third stop: Hang Lung Plaza. I stopped in front of the LV store and seemed very interested in the new dresses in the window, but I didn't go in. Then I turned around and went to Bulgari across the street and bought an iris-shaped necklace and left a Mora."

"Fourth stop: BFC Bund Financial Center. I played Ring Fit Adventure for two hours in the game trial area of ​​'Kyoto House' and left one gold coin."

……

This guide meticulously records every dessert shop, every luxury store, and even every arcade she has visited.

Her behavior was unlike that of a "god" descended to earth; rather, it resembled that of a wealthy young lady who had just arrived in Shanghai and was full of curiosity about everything.

What's most talked about is her payment method.

Mora.

The kind of gold coins that only exist in the game Genshin Impact.

Soon, anonymous bounties appeared on the black market for this "otherworldly currency," and the price soared to ten million Chinese yuan per coin, with the price still rising wildly.

But this price is meaningless.

Because every gold coin left behind by Funina would be quickly recovered, sealed, and sent to Kyoto by the relevant departments within half an hour.

At the same time, an unspoken rule has emerged online.

If you happen to run into Fu Ningna on the streets of Shanghai, you can take photos from a distance and talk about her quietly, but you absolutely cannot go up and disturb her.

Some enthusiastic fans and gamers even spontaneously organized an offline "Fufu Guardian Group".

Wearing matching T-shirts with the words "Justice in Action," they patrol various commercial districts. If they spot any oblivious streamer or fanatic trying to approach Fu Ningna, they immediately step forward and use "gentle" language and "friendly" looks to dissuade them.

"Brother, don't go over there. Give Fufu some private space."

"You're a streamer, huh? Desperate for fame? Believe me or not, I'll report your stream and get your account banned right now!"

"She's not a tool for your publicity stunts, stay away from her!"

Of course, there are always some people who are blinded by their "Master" status.

In the past week, there have been at least a dozen incidents of people attempting to break through the crowd and rush toward Funina.

But the result is the same.

As the crowd began to gather due to the commotion, before the "Guardian Group" and nearby security personnel could react, the girl who was surrounded would let out a soft sigh, her body turning into countless blue light spots, and disappearing into thin air.

All that remained was a sense of awe and regret.

The weather was perfect that day.

The afternoon sun shines through the gaps in the plane tree leaves, casting dappled light and shadow on the ground of Nanjing West Road.

Funina, dressed in her gorgeous and elaborate navy blue morning gown, strolled slowly along the sidewalk.

On her left shoulder sat a small, ball-shaped blue octopus, Lord Uther.

On her right shoulder floats an elegant bubble seahorse, "Lady Hevima".

Behind her followed a heavily armored crab waving its pincers, "Miss Shebeleta".

As for the various stares from the passersby, Funina was already used to it.

Sudden.

Funina stopped in her tracks.

She raised her head, her beautiful heterochromatic eyes looking at the huge outdoor electronic screen on the outer wall of Hang Lung Plaza across the street.

On the screen, a promotional video for GG is playing.

CCG EXPO 2025! Asia's Anime & Game Carnival!

"See you at the Shanghai New International Expo Centre this July, in the height of summer!"

GG's screen switches very quickly.

The venue was packed with people.

A stage with dazzling lights.

And, a large number of young people dressed in all sorts of outlandish costumes, with bright smiles on their faces.

Some of them dressed as knights wielding longswords, some as magicians waving staffs, and others as elves with pointed ears.

"How could a masquerade ball like this be complete without me, Lord Uther, Lady Hevima, Miss Shebeleta, let's go take a look."

……

three days later.

CCG EXPO opening day.

The entrance plaza of the Shanghai New International Expo Centre was already bustling with people.

Countless cosplayers and anime enthusiasts gathered here, waiting to enter.

The air was filled with the scent of youth and hormones.

Just then, a small commotion suddenly arose in the crowd.

Funina appeared.

It was as if she stepped out of the two-dimensional world and into reality.

That exquisite aquamarine morning gown, down to the smallest detail; that silver-white short hair that shimmered in the sunlight; and those heterochromatic eyes that seemed to hold the entire ocean within them.

Her appearance instantly attracted the attention of everyone around her.

"Holy crap! It's me!"

"A live Fufu! Quick, take a picture!"

"My God, what's she doing at the comic convention?"

Exclamations rose and fell, and countless mobile phone cameras were pointed at her.

However, before the crowd could rush towards her, the members of the "Fufu Guardian Team" and the security guards on site, who were already on high alert, quickly set up an invisible defensive line around her.

They formed a human wall, politely but firmly preventing any attempt to approach.

Funina ignored the stares of those around her.

Her entire attention was drawn to the magnificent sight before her.

She saw a cosplayer dressed as "Zhongli" leaning against a rock spear she had made herself, striking a pensive pose.

There was also a cosplayer dressed as "General Thunder," surrounded by people, who calmly allowed everyone to take pictures of her.

She even saw many characters she knew or didn't know.

They are all "performing".

Everyone is an "actor" in this grand drama.

A look of joy flickered in Funina's eyes.

She walked towards the ticket counter.

The crowd automatically parted to make way for her.

Under the astonished gazes of the ticket office staff and other tourists in line, Funina took a Mora gold coin from her pocket and gently placed it on the counter at the ticket window.

"bite."

A crisp, light sound.

The young girl at the ticket window was completely stunned.

She stared at the gold coin, which emitted a faint glow and was adorned with intricate patterns, and for a moment forgot how to react.

"Um... supervisor..."

The girl picked up the walkie-talkie, her voice trembling.

A moment later, a middle-aged man in a suit with a "Exhibition Manager" badge on his chest rushed over.

He glanced at the gold coins on the windowsill, then at Funina, and a fine layer of sweat instantly appeared on his forehead.

"Ms. Funina."

The manager's voice was full of respect.

He took a black card out of his pocket and handed it over with both hands.

"This is your VIP pass for this exhibition. You can enter directly through a special channel."

Funina took the pass that had the word "VIP" printed on it.

"Thanks."

Then, under the watchful eyes of countless people, Funina, holding her pass, passed through the VIP passage specially opened for her and entered the huge exhibition hall.
