I, Jingliu, the Fatui Executor

Chapter 203



The old man was very happy.

"Oh, I forgot to ask Villette what fun places there are in Fontaine."

Walking on the road to Fontaine, Jingliu suddenly remembered it.

"I don't think he would know even if you asked him." Columbia replied indifferently.

That Villette is just like [Clown]. If you ask Villette what fun places there are in Fontaine, it's just like you ask [Clown] what fun places there are in Zhidong.

"Well...it seems so." Jingliu thought for a while and agreed with Columbia's idea.

"How about we go to bed?"

Columbia: "(╯▔皿▔)╯"

"Uh... okay..." Looking at Columbia's expression at this time, Jingliu still shut his mouth obediently.

"But compared to other countries, Fontaine is really much more magnificent." Jingliu looked at the surrounding Fontaine buildings and couldn't help but sigh.

If Fontaine is compared to a city, Liyue and Inazuma are equivalent to towns, as for Mondstadt... I won't comment.

The technology level is not the same level as these three countries. I really don't understand. They are all from the same Teyvat continent. Why does the technology seem to be so backward?

As for how Dongzhi compares to Fontaine... Jingliu doesn't know. After all, when he was in Dongzhi, 90% of the time he was in Columbia's bed.

I can only say that every country has its own characteristics.

"Huh? Which one is..." As he walked, Jingliu found two familiar figures.

“Magic is the art of performance. How about that magic? Was the magic just now wonderful?”

“Excellent, wonderful, Brother Lini, do another one, do another one.”

In a garden in Fontaine, a magician was performing magic to several children.

“They like it very much. Why don’t you do another one, brother?”

The girl next to the magician said to the magician expressionlessly.

“Haha.” The magician laughed.

“Okay, then I will…”

The magician seemed to have seen something, and his voice stopped instantly. Then he quickly reacted and said to the child next to him.

“Don’t be greedy, brother has something to do today. I will perform magic for you again at the same time and place tomorrow, okay?”

“Well…Okay, Brother Lini must abide by the agreement.” The children felt a little sorry, but they still listened to the magician and left obediently.

“Okay~” The magician smiled and waved his hand. Looking at the children leaving, Lini tidied up his clothes.

"Brother?" The girl beside him seemed a little confused, but she quickly adjusted her clothes when she followed his gaze.

"Linnie (Linnet) greets Lord [Sword Head] and Lord [Girl]!"

Seeing Jingliu and Columbia coming, the two of them quickly knelt down and said respectfully.

"Well, stand up." Jingliu nodded lightly and motioned for them to stand up.

"What are you doing?"

After Linnie and Linnet stood up, Jingliu asked them.

"Uh..." Linnie was a little speechless. If the person in front of him was his father, then Linnie would answer truthfully that he was performing magic with these children. After all, my father is very gentle and won't blame me for such a thing...

But the people in front of us are [Sword Head] and [Girl], will they think we are not doing our job properly if we say this...

Linnie was a little tangled in her heart, not knowing whether she should say it out loud...

"Do you think I am a very strict person?" Looking at the expressions of Linnie and Linnet, Jingliu said lightly.

If it weren't for the need to maintain her image in front of the two, she would have laughed out loud looking at their expressions and small movements.

"No... I dare not." Hearing Jingliu's words, Linnie quickly lowered her head and knelt down again.

Jingliu:...

"Okay, get up. Now we are here in Fontaine as individuals, not as Fatui executives. So there is no need to be so restrained."

"Call me Jingliu, call her Columbia."

Listening to Jingliu's words, Linnie and Linnet were a little flattered. How could they call the executive by name?

The two quickly waved their hands to refuse.

"So... you don't take my words seriously?" Jingliu looked at Linni and Linnit's actions and seemed a little angry.

"No... I dare not..."

"Then say it!"

"Jing... Jingliu-sama, Columbia-sama..." After listening to Jingliu's words, Linni and Linnit

Nette said with a stiff face.

"Yeah." Jingliu nodded with satisfaction, and then continued:

"You were performing magic for those kids just now, why don't you perform one for me now."

Hearing this, Lini seemed to be unable to stand firmly and almost fell down, and he barely squeezed out a smile on his face:

"Since it's a sword..."

"Hmm?"

Feeling Jingliu's eyes, Lini swallowed the prepared words and reorganized his language.

"Since Lord Jingliu wants to see it, then I, Lini, will naturally show the best magic."

"But there doesn't seem to be any other props at the moment, so I'll use playing cards to perform a small magic for the sword... Lord Jingliu."

Lini took the playing cards in his hand and cut them a few times quickly. Then he placed them all in the air.

"Lord Jingliu, please choose a card at random."

"Just this one." Jingliu picked up a card casually, which was a spade K.

"Okay." Lini put away the remaining cards and cut them a few times quickly again.

"Master Jingliu, put the cards on the top, please don't let me see it."

Jingliu put the cards on the top and watched Lini's magic quietly.

After Jingliu put the cards on the top, Lini cut the cards again. Then he picked up the top card and put away the rest of the cards.

"Master Jingliu, this card is now a seven of clubs." Lini looked at the card he picked up and said to Jingliu.

Jingliu didn't say anything after hearing this. Although he had seen the flaw in Lini's magic at this time, he still watched Lini's performance quietly.

"Then next is the moment to witness the miracle." Lini looked at the cards in his hand, smiled, and then stretched out his finger and flicked it lightly on the back.

The next second, the seven of clubs in Lini's hand turned into the spade K chosen by Jingliu.

"Awesome." Looking at the scene in front of him, Jingliu couldn't help but applaud.

There was no skill in this magic. When Lini was shuffling the cards, he used a special technique to shuffle the spade king selected by Jingliu to the second card under the top, which was the card below the seven of clubs.

After that, Lini not only took the seven of clubs, but also took the spade king. It's just that the two cards were stacked together and looked like one card.

Finally, Lini flicked the cards and completed the exchange of the two playing cards in a few seconds, placing the seven of clubs at the bottom and the spade king at the top.

"Thank you, Master Jingliu." Hearing Jingliu's applause, Lini couldn't help feeling a little happy.

"Well... do you know where Arlechino is now?"

"Father?" Hearing Jingliu's words, Lini and Linnet both fell into thought.

"We don't know where Father is."

"But she returns to the Buffati Mansion every few days. It's been a few days since Father last came to the Buffati Mansion."

"If nothing unexpected happens, Father will come back today or tomorrow."

"Buffati Mansion?" Jingliu thought for a moment, then said to Linni and Linnet.

"Take me there"
