Kujo Sara frowned and gave the order.

After saying this, she issued several more orders.

Before long, he personally led a team of soldiers to investigate the situation.

The cherry tree must not be harmed.

P.S.: Update is here! I fell asleep halfway through writing yesterday... I got up early this morning and finished writing now.

I don't know why, but after midnight, I started to fall into an irresistible drowsiness.

Since I type on my phone, after waking up, I instinctively picked up my phone to start typing, only to find that I wasn't holding a phone at all, but an air conditioner remote.

The plot is not just about romance, but a story that combines the book with emotions.

Chapter 243: Three Kingdoms Released Simultaneously (Two-in-One)

The sky was just beginning to brighten.

On a crisp, chilly morning nearing winter's end.

A gust of wind blew.

Many people who get up early to work can't help but shiver slightly until they sit down at the breakfast stall and drink a bowl of hot soup, which warms them up a lot.

However, the novel lovers queuing outside the bookstores could only endure the cold, wait silently in long lines.

This phenomenon has occurred in Liyue, Inazuma, and Mondstadt.

Because today is the day when the three countries simultaneously launch their book releases.

The most anticipated book is undoubtedly Fang Qiu's new book, "Hotarubi no Mori e".

Liyue, at the entrance of Wanwen Collection Hall.

"It's so cold! I regret going out to queue so early. I should have at least worn an extra layer."

"Brother, your health is the most important thing. Don't hurt yourself for the sake of books. I suggest you go back now, put on some clothes, and then come back. Health is the most valuable asset."

"What you said is true... Wait, I remember now, I almost got tricked by you. You were the one who tricked me into buying movie tickets last time. I ran all the way there, and not only did I not get the tickets, but I also had to queue for most of the day."

"Ahem, brother, you must have mistaken me for someone else. I have a very common face; many people look a lot like me. By the way, brother, what book are you here to buy?"

"Of course it's 'Hotarubi no Mori e'! I saw the new book preview yesterday, and this book is actually categorized as a ghost story novel. I'm so excited! A few days ago, I came across Inazuma's ghost story novel and fell in love with it at first sight. I'm really looking forward to the ghost story novel that old rascal Fang Qiu writes."

"Speaking of ghost stories, I recently bought a really scary one, and then I recommended it to a sailor friend of mine, which scared him so much that he peed his pants."

"Hiss... It actually scared the sailors so much they peed their pants. Is that book really that terrifying?"

"The book is indeed quite scary, but it is said that after he finished reading it, he found it so frightening that he threw it into the sea. His roommate saw that he had thrown the book away, so he went to the bookstore, bought the same book, soaked it in seawater, and put it on his desk."

"Hiss... How could that be so despicable? Didn't my roommate get beaten to death?"

"Well... my friend often pranks his roommate too. For example, one night, they couldn't sleep, so they agreed to each take turns playing a Hilichurl to help them fall asleep. But when his roommate was about to drift off, he slapped him awake and said, 'Your turn...'"

"I never imagined that such a small ship could gather these two geniuses..."

Aside from their offbeat conversation, the others focused more on Fang Qiu's new book and how difficult it was to queue.

Meanwhile, at the front of the queue, a girl pulling a cart was smiling as she looked at the long line behind her.

There was a funeral service last night, and the burial was completed in the early hours of the morning.

So, she grabbed her trolley and ran all the way to the entrance of Wanwenjishe, successfully getting a front-row seat.

Today, she can see Fang Qiu's book ahead of time!

Overjoyed, she looked at the young man behind her, smiled, and asked, "Young man, would you like to consider the special offers from Wangshengtang? Buy one get one free, buy two get three free, the more you buy, the more you get. If you place an order now, you also have a chance to receive a custom-made Mora coffin from Wangshengtang, guaranteeing users peace of mind and a comfortable sleep."

At this moment, Mondstadt.

At the entrance of the bookstore.

"Have you heard? That author named Fang Qiu is actually a beautiful young woman."

"Really? I heard he's a Hilichurl from Liyue who transformed into human form?"

"Isn't this just outrageous?"

"Speaking of which, look at that bard, he's been sleeping there since yesterday..."

"That's normal. You haven't been to the angels' gifts these past few days, have you?"

"No, I've been going to Cat's Tail Bar these past few days. Diona's cocktails are absolutely delicious."

“Miss Diona’s wine is indeed top-notch, but I still recommend you go to Angel’s Gift recently. That bard is doing storytelling and analysis there, and he’s doing it exceptionally well. I dare say no one understands Fang Qiu’s books better than him, so it’s normal for him to queue up in the middle of the night. Also, you can drink Diona’s wine anytime, but if you miss that bard’s storytelling, you’ll miss it.”

"Is it that amazing? Then I'll go to Angel's Gift these next few days. But then again, isn't that guy cold in this weather?"

"Who knows? It's so slow! Why isn't it open yet? Why isn't the bookstore open 24/7?!"

Hearing the noise around her, Wendy forced her eyes open and saw the signboard at the entrance of the bookstore.

The above is a promotional video for Fang Qiu's new book, "Hotarubi no Mori e".

"Thankfully, I didn't go to the wrong place."

Wendy breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the bookstore was not open.

Last night, after reviewing the book at Angel's Gift, he got completely drunk. Then, remembering that the next day was the book launch day and Fang Qiu's new book was coming out, he wandered off to the nearest bookstore in a daze.

My memory of what happened after that is very vague.

But it seems I'll have to sleep in front of the bookstore after all.

He wanted to get Fang Qiu's book as soon as possible, and after reading it, he would go to Angel's Gift tonight to tell stories, earn money, and drink.

Seeing that it was almost time and the shop assistants were already starting to prepare, he touched his pocket and realized that he had drunk too much the day before and had forgotten to ask Angel's Gift to settle his storytelling fee. Now he only had ten Mora in his pocket.

A book costs twenty moras.

So he turned to a young man standing behind him and said, “Sir, I am Barbatos, the wind god. Actually, I have been watching the lives of the people of Mondstadt. I feel a connection with you. If you give me ten Mora and let me see your faith in me, I will not only return the ten Mora to you later, but as long as you maintain your devout faith in me, I will bless you to make a lot of money in the future. How about it?”

The young man glanced at Wendy, said nothing, and took out his wallet and a Mora.

"No need for that many, ten Mora will suffice."

Wendy smiled calmly and waved her hand.

I didn't expect it to be so easy to succeed.

What a devout believer!

I need to take good care of myself afterwards.

Unlike those nuns, who were almost kicked out after revealing their identities.

"You've misunderstood. This money is what the client paid for me to help them queue. The rest is mine."

The young man shook his head and said, "I saw an astrologer help someone buy books a few days ago, so I want to do the same."

"I see."

Wendy's expression stiffened, and she asked, "How much money do you have yourself?"

"Two Mora..."

The young man pulled out the last two Mora from his wallet and said reluctantly, "This is my lunch money..."

Lunch was steamed buns that were brought over from Liyue.

Cheap and filling.

"Well... it's alright now."

Wendy rubbed his forehead. Just as the bookstore was about to open, he suddenly spotted a familiar figure.

It was Albert, who was also a member of Barbara's fan club!

He stood outside the queue, looking helplessly at the long line.

Wendy quickly called Albert over.

"What happened?"

Wendy asked, "Why do you look so troubled?"

"The girls from the fan club went to the church to inquire and heard from the nuns that Miss Barbara really liked Fang Qiu's books, so we planned to buy Fang Qiu's new book to read. But I accidentally overslept and it was late..."

Albert said, distressed.

"I see."

Wendy smiled and said, "How about this? You give me the Mora you need to buy the books, and I'll buy them for you. You just need to pay for one book for me too, and give this gentleman twenty Mora so he can have a decent meal."

"Really? That's great."

Albert's eyes lit up. He immediately took out a large bag of Mora and handed it to Wendy, then took out a hundred Mora from his wallet and handed it to her, saying, "Keep the change."

Having accepted the money, and seeing Albert's happy face, Wendy suddenly thought of another way to make money.

Would a bookmark be more valuable if it had Barbara's signature?

Just as Wendy was thinking this, Mona, who had run all the way here, looked at the long line in front of her and fell into despair.

Yesterday, I stayed up too late writing and fell asleep immediately. When I woke up, it was already this morning...

The manuscript is finished, but I'm still wondering what to have for lunch today.

All I can do is queue for the people behind me and earn a meager profit...

Time passed slowly.

Rice wife.

The rising sun pierced through the morning mist.

The cold winter sun, carrying little warmth, shone down on the long line in front of the Yaedo Hall.

Yaedo finally opened its doors amidst the anticipation of all novel lovers.

"Hahahaha, our Huanglong Sect is invincible! We're number one even in line!"
