Genshin Impact is a big stage, come if you dare

Chapter 796: The Fools

"Linnie, where were you during the time between entering the stage exchange box and appearing in the auditorium exchange box?"

While Su and Paimon were enjoying the magic explanations and demonstrations by Linny and Linnet, Sora discovered an important point of doubt.

The space under the stage and under the auditorium must be connected. After Linny and Miss Lucky Audience enter the box, they should go to each other's position.

During this process, Miss Lucky Audience disappeared, and the assistant who assisted the Lucky Audience in completing the exchange magic appeared in the stage magic box.

Normally, Linny should have been in the underground passage at that time. He was either a witness to the disappearance of the lucky audience or the murderer.

At Sora's question, Linnie's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her lips pursed reflexively.

Su could see clearly that Linny's reaction was that he had a secret but wanted to hide it.

Paimon felt uneasy, "Linny..." Please, don't let Su down.

Linny was torn between his conscience and his desires. He had been hiding many things from the traveler group since their first meeting.

Sora looked at the silent Linnie, waiting for his answer.

When they first met in Hailu Port, the Water God was appreciative of Linni who helped them out.

But after this accident, the Water God changed his attitude and firmly identified Linnie as the murderer.

Linni must have some important information that the water gods know, but they are still kept in the dark.

Under the gaze of the Traveler Team, Linnie opened his mouth with difficulty, "I... I'm sorry."

He really knew nothing about what was going on with Cowell and Miss Lucky Audience during that period.

Because at that time he sneaked into another space to carry out a mission, a mission for the Fatui.

Paimon was anxious, "Linnie, stop apologizing and explain it clearly!"

Linny was still hesitating, "I..."

He knew how bad the Fatui's reputation was, and he also had a deep understanding of the Traveler Squad's attitude towards the Fatui from intelligence.

He didn't want to lose his hard-earned friends because of his hostile identity.

What should he say to protect this fragile relationship from breaking?

Su waited patiently for eight seconds, but when nothing happened, she decisively called her friends and pulled Linnet to leave.

"!" Linny stretched out his hand reflexively, but retracted his fist before touching the girl's sleeve.

Linnet looked at her brother who was dejected and hanging his head, and realized that he thought he had no qualifications to keep Su.

"Su, wait." Linnet pulled Su to a stop. "If your brother can't say it, I'll say it—"

Linnie looked up suddenly, "Linnet, wait a minute!"

Linnet: "—We are the Fatui."

Paimon:!

Paimon held on to his funny detective glasses that were about to fall off with one hand, and covered his mouth with the other hand to prevent himself from screaming out loud.

Su turned around, folded his arms, and waited for what was to come.

Linnet lowered her head slightly, looking at her hand that had been released by the girl, "The secret can no longer be kept, Linnie."

Su was willing to stop because she was willing to listen to their explanation. If they continued to conceal it, it would be irreversible.

Linnie closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Linnet was right. Whether it was the analysis from a large amount of intelligence or the time they had spent with Su, they knew Su's character well enough.

He loves and hates as he pleases, and treats his friends and enemies differently. He hates riddles, concealment, and betrayal.

He couldn't hesitate any longer. This was the last chance that Linnet had fought for him and for them.

Linny: "Linnet and I are both Faints. But I swear to you! I never approached you with any ill intentions. I have only been talking and interacting with you as Linny."

There are indeed many people within the Fatui who hope that they can get close to the Traveler Squad, and preferably gain the Traveler Squad's trust and intelligence as their friends.

But their father suppressed these proposals and asked them to focus on more important tasks.

They didn't do that. When they were in Hailu Port, they just wanted to see the traveler team from afar with their own eyes, so that the "understanding" they had on paper would become more concrete.

Paimon thought about how their Traveler Group, Linnet, and Linny met in Harbor Helu, "Oh, yeah... We were the ones who first approached Linnet."

Sora nodded in confirmation. At that time, Linnie was probably worried that her sister was surrounded by them, so she rushed over.

Sue: "Why did you join the Fatui? Were you forced or controlled? Have you ever thought about leaving?"

Linney said, "I am on the side of the Fatui, and I am just an orphan like me whose interests are aligned with those of Hearth House."

The Hearth House is a charity organization set up by the Fatui in Fontaine to adopt orphans and abandoned children.

Linny and Linnet, after being orphaned and living on the streets for a long time after their parents died, were recruited by the [Servant], the executive officer in charge of Hearth House, and thus became members of the Fatui.

Upon hearing about the tragedy that happened to Linny and Linnet, the entire group of travelers fell silent for a long time.

Sora looked at Linnet and Linnie holding hands, and the slight unhappiness that had been hidden disappeared.

There are many bad guys among the Fatui, but there are also many innocent or sad people, and they know it.

In the face of the cruel world, Linny and Linnet had no choice, and it cannot be blamed on them.

Su: "She's really called [Servant], so I guess her clothes are black and white?" Wouldn't wearing a black and white maid outfit affect the executive's dignity in front of his subordinates?

Linnie nodded, "Father's clothes are indeed basically black and white." With a pale iron gray and a deep dark black, and a small amount of bright red like blood.

"It's clearly 'her', so why do you call the [Servant] father, Linny?" Paimon complained. "Executive officers really do have their own quirks."

After being interrupted twice by Su and Paimon, Linny and Linnet felt a little relieved when they recalled what they had experienced during the period of helplessness.

Linny talked about the details of his and Linnet's past, "After our parents passed away, Linnet and I had no choice but to live on the streets."

In order to make a living, Little Linny secretly observed a senior magician who was performing on the roadside for several days.

Then, by imitating the skills of his predecessor, Little Linny performed magic in streets farther away to earn food and shelter for himself and his sister.

The intelligent and good-looking Lini siblings soon attracted the attention of a nobleman.

Lini: "That nobleman found us and said he wanted to adopt us, my brother and I."

At first, Linnie was surprised and grateful, thinking that she and her brother could finally say goodbye to those painful days.

But soon, Linny discovered that the nobleman's so-called adoption was nothing more than bringing him and Linnet to various banquets to attract attention and expand his social circle by showing them off.
