Genshin Impact: I, the Winter's Executor, am forced to work.

"You're too kind." Qin Ye waved his hand, smoothly put on the Void, and nodded politely: "I was fortunate enough to wear this item before with the help of scholars from the Order Academy, but I had forgotten about it for a while. Thank you for your explanation."

A flash of light passed by his ear, and he quietly slipped the terminal the other party had given him into his pocket, using his ability to conjure up an accessory that looked almost identical.

"Thank you for your cooperation. Welcome to Sumeru."

"Ah."

Qin Ye nodded, took out a check from his pocket, and signed his name: "Thank you for your trouble. Afterwards, please take this note to the Adventurers' Guild and give it to Catherine there, saying it's a tip."

The amount on the check was the salary a guard could earn after six months of hard work, which he found hard to believe.

Before he could even ask a question, Qin Ye stepped into Sumeru City without looking back and disappeared from the guards' sight in the blink of an eye.

"..." The guard silently stuffed the note into his pocket.

Oh well, I'll just ask on my way there. Even if I get scammed, I can at least get away with it.

If that's true...wouldn't that mean we'd make a fortune?

On the streets of Sumeru City.

The light gradually enveloped Qin Ye's body, concealing his presence and causing him to quicken his pace.

Since he had arranged to meet Nasita at the Adventurers' Guild, what he needed to do now was quite simple.

Completely bypass the association's location so that the Little Grass God won't notice anything.

After all, although my appearance has changed, the god who controls consciousness will inevitably detect my arrival from various people and events.

Of course, her intelligence might be a bit questionable in this regard, but it's always good to be cautious.

Otherwise, we'll have to spend even more effort to fool the young girl.

He looked around, memorizing the appearance of one side of Sumeru City, and began to ponder silently.

The reason I wrote that IOU was twofold: firstly, it was a very faithful recreation of Zhongli's style; secondly, it was to let me see how much Dotore had mastered the Void Terminal.

If he truly possesses even greater expertise than the current Little Grass God, then he has actually witnessed the entire conversation between the Little Grass God and me.

Therefore, the IOU was signed by Zhongli, a guest of the Hall of Rebirth.

Given Catherine's level of responsibility, she would definitely report to her superiors, especially regarding something as unrelated as the Hall of Rebirth.

Although Dottore might not remember Zhongli, that kid [Scattered Soldiers] does. I introduced him to him quite a bit when we rested in Liyue.

When the time comes, they'll exchange information, and Dotole will know that it's highly likely I'm the one who's coming.

Naxida probably doesn't know who Zhongli is, so we can fool her for now.

If neither Dotole nor that idiot [Skirmisher] knows of my arrival, then I'll meet with Little Grass God, betray them, get Narcida out of trouble, and have her help me find traces of the Abyss.

As for whether Catherine will tip the doorman...

Well, since it was Zhongli who gave it to me, even if the gatekeeper was really fooled, isn't it normal that it has nothing to do with me, the Fool?

Qin Ye walked along the main road, leaving his footprints little by little in every shop on the commercial street.

"This is excellent, boss, put it on the tab."

"I've never seen this Sumeru dye before. Please pack it up and send the bill to the Adventurers' Guild."

"This item... what? It's not available on credit, which is a real shame."

Qin Ye's concealed presence made him blend into the crowd, making him appear like an ordinary old man.

Only when the conversation begins or when they pass each other do others notice that there is such a man.

As the sun gradually set, Qin Ye's shopping time came to an end.

"Handsome guy, handsome guy over there."

The young female stall owner at the stall had just hung up the "Closed" sign in her shop and beckoned to Qin Ye with a somewhat alluring gesture.

Qin Ye silently moved closer.

Without hesitation, the woman's fair hand landed on his shoulder and then slowly rubbed against him. Through the fabric, which was neither too thin nor too thick, he could even feel the ticklish friction.

The woman probed little by little until she wrapped her arms around his neck.

So Qin Ye silently straightened his back, and amidst the female stall owner's exclamation, his feet were lifted off the ground.

She quickly released her arm and reached out to tidy her appearance.

"Madam, what urgent matter do you need me for?"

Qin Ye's expression seemed to be suppressing a laugh, while also revealing a hint of helplessness.

"I've been watching you all along, handsome. The rewards from the Adventurers' Guild are nothing to me. How about we grab a drink at the tavern?"

Her delicate skin showed she took good care of herself. Her fingers lightly touched Qin Ye's chest, gently drawing something on it. Combined with the nail polish, it looked...quite...

"Please have some self-respect..."

Qin Ye pushed the woman away, appearing completely unmoved: "Could you please lead the way? Let's have a drink together."

"Oh dear~ I thought you were going to reject me~"

"..."

Suppressing his discomfort, Qin Ye and the stranger arrived at the Lambad Tavern.

"Boss, do you have any private rooms?"

The soft, tingling voice sent a shiver down the spine of the burly boss, but since he was a guest, he was determined to treat him well.

"Guests, our tavern doesn't really have private rooms. You two can go up to the second floor; there's a quieter corner there where you can enjoy yourselves to the fullest."

"..." Qin Ye's lips twitched.

Boss, you know too much.

I kept comforting myself.

I am Zhongli now, it's not shameful at all, and even if it is shameful, it's not shameful of myself.

With his head down, trying not to look at the woman in front of him, Qin Ye finally arrived at the second floor of the tavern.

"That'll do."

The other person grabbed his hand, quickly found a corner with few customers, ordered some food, sent the waiter away, and the two finally got down to business.

"Handsome guy~ What's your name?"

Qin Ye picked up the cup next to him, filled it with water, and then gulped it down in one go.

He slammed the cup down on the table.

"You're so sexy, Dotore."

Chapter 237 Report Address

"Hahaha!"

The woman opposite suddenly burst into laughter: "So this is how you see Dotole?"

"..."

Qin Ye realized early on that the other party was one of his own. First of all, this exaggerated acting, which seemed to come from nowhere, resembled that of a mental patient who had been holding back their emotions for too long during the winter.

Secondly, even if the two people talked while shopping, it would be impossible for an ordinary person to find him hiding his aura so quickly.

"So, you are actually Scaramucci?"

The woman reached out as if to lower the brim of her hat, only to realize she wasn't wearing one at all. So, without any awkwardness, she gently lowered her hand behind her back, smoothed her hair, and then supported her cheek.

"How about it? Doesn't it look a lot like that stinky fox?"

"...It really has a great flavor."

I've noted down what you said today; I'll talk to your aunt about it tomorrow.

"So to make a long story short, Dotole is still dragging the little grass king along."

A mocking look appeared on the woman's face.

"He has just modified and stolen some of the Void Terminal's capabilities, and he can't completely stop the Grass God from escaping yet. In his words, he's afraid that if he accidentally uses too much force and defeats the Grass God, it will be detrimental to the subsequent experiments."

Qin Ye took the steaming hot drink from the waiter who came over from the side and took a leisurely sip.

"First, tell me how you took over this woman's body?"

This was what he was most curious about; he wanted to know exactly where the "Doctor" project had progressed.

"It's very simple. First, use the void terminal to tamper with her consciousness, making her worship me as the god. Then connect with each other, and you can naturally take over her body."

"side effect?"

Qin Ye interrupted the other party's smug laughter and got down to business.

"Well, I'm not too sure about that either. As Dotole said, we'll only know after the experiment."

The woman shrugged, seemingly unconcerned, draped one arm over the back of the chair, crossed her legs, and casually spread her hands.

The conversation abruptly ended, and Qin Ye stroked his chin, deep in thought.

"Why aren't you saying anything? You're not going to pity the Sumeru Man, are you?"

"It's not so much that I'd call it pitiful..." He deliberately drew out the word: "I'm curious, the god you claim to believe in, is it you who has become a god?"

Scaramucci suddenly stood up, walked to Qin Ye with a big smile, and hugged him: "I have to thank you for this. Your flesh and blood have successfully adapted to my body, and now I have become perfect, a brand new individual that is superior to everything."

She slowly bent down, her ferocious smile almost touching Qin Ye's face.

"With the forbidden knowledge that Dotorei has accessed from the Void Terminal, I will soon become a new god and change this era."

"..."

Very good, the legendary character passed down from mother to son is finally revealed at this moment.

Simply put, this kid has gotten cocky, and really cocky.

"May I ask you a question?" Qin Ye didn't show any sarcasm; instead, he smiled.

"Tell me, I can answer any question you ask. Remember, any question."

His words were filled with absolute confidence, reflecting the boy's precocious maturity and somewhat lagging mental development due to excessive growth.
