However, the most important issue now is who should pay for her meal today?
Mi Nu left in a clean and decisive manner, and was completely relieved about everything else, but he did not consider one thing at all.
That is, she, the poor and innocent visitor from another world who was suddenly abandoned by him, was penniless and could not even take out a Mora from her pocket to pay the bill.
It turns out that in his own world, when Yuan Zhuoyue was wandering around in the shell of Morax, he was still able to rely on the many values he showed.
Gain some benefits for yourself and ensure that you have a stable supply channel for food, clothing, housing and transportation.
But now in this world, although Yuan Zhuoyue has demonstrated his own value, he has only slightly shown his uniqueness in front of the immortals.
Now, in the eyes of the people in Liyue Harbor, she is a guest gentleman of the Wangsheng Hall who has encountered some unfortunate thing and accidentally fell into the sea and lost her memory. Before her memory is restored, she may not be able to continue her previous work normally.
During the period when Mr. Zhongli is ill, anyone with a normal mind would not come to disturb him.
What's more, there are always many immortals following her, so it would be even more inappropriate to come and disturb her rashly.
This has resulted in the fact that Yuan Zhuoyue, who has lived in Liyue for many days, has not established a stable channel to obtain compensation to cover her daily expenses.
So Yuan Zhuoyue, who was short of money, had to use his last trick after facing the table full of leftovers for a long time.
"...Please put the expenses into the account of the Hall of Rebirth."
"So you're thinking of settling the bill with the Hall of Rebirth because you're penniless?" The girl, wearing dark clothes and a plum blossom on the brim of her black hat, crossed her arms over her chest.
"When I heard the attendant of the Wangsheng Hall tell me this news, I thought that after so many days, my good guest had finally recovered his memory!" Although she pretended to be mature, Hu Tao still revealed the unique cuteness and liveliness of a girl of her age in her words and demeanor: "I haven't heard of the news that the account was registered under the name of the Wangsheng Hall for a long time. I'm still a little uncomfortable with it."
Facing the creditor, no matter how good his attitude was, Yuan Zhuoyue couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed: "...I owe Mora, and I will definitely pay it back in a few days."
"That's not necessary." Hu Tao waved her hand generously, and then explained to the guest in front of her who had now lost his memory: "The salary of the Rebirth Hall is quite generous. You used to do this. When you forgot to bring Mora, you would just put it on the account of the Rebirth Hall... Alas, the ceremonial attendants of the Rebirth Hall used to spoil you and always mixed these bills with the reimbursements in order to get away with it. But fortunately, you are a guest with excellent abilities. There are really many people who come here because of your reputation, and you are also very generous. In this way, my Rebirth Hall has not been drained of its wealth!"
Yuan Zhuoyue had just told the staff of his own restaurant that he would temporarily put the bill on the Wangsheng Hall, and the head of the Wangsheng Hall, Hu Tao, arrived in front of Yuan Zhuoyue almost right after.
What followed was a long round of questioning. Facing his current small creditor, Yuan Zhuoyue naturally responded to many questions honestly.
But Yuan Zhuoyue always felt that compared to the first time they met, Hu Tao's mumbling and meaningless words were much more frequent.
Moreover, Yuan Zhuoyue could also feel that when facing him, although Hu Tao's behavior seemed to be not much different from before.
Yuan Zhuoyue felt that the sense of closeness that they had when they first met was missing. Although he did not show any signs of vigilance, he felt a little more nervous and distant.
Hu Tao is now talking incessantly, emphasizing the pronunciation of every meaningless sentence.
It seemed to have shown that she was more excited or nervous.
Yuan Zhuoyue was very skeptical about this. Perhaps Hu Tao already knew her true identity and knew that she was not the guest official of the Wangsheng Hall that she was familiar with.
After all, during these days, the reliable traveler and his trumpet-like friend Paimon have been wandering around Liyue.
The two of them also have some interactions with Kurumi, and the fact that Yuan Zhuoyue is now living in Morax's body is not airtight.
The Traveler and Paimon were already insiders and were among the earliest ones.
Even travelers still remember to be careful with their words and actions, but little Paimon always behaves innocently and usually speaks quickly when communicating with others.
Perhaps it was them who leaked some of the information to Hu Tao, but what is not yet known is to what extent the information was leaked.
Since Hu Tao didn't point it out, Yuan Zhuoyue didn't mind continuing to play dumb and pretending to know nothing.
Then Hu Tao asked, "I've seen people accompanying you these days, especially the famous designer from Xiweifang. How come he's gone now? Are you the only one left here?"
As she spoke, the lively and pretty girl in front of her looked around, demonstrating her looking around in a very vivid and vivid manner.
When Yuan Zhuoyue heard this question, he realized that the current head of the Wangsheng Hall might have noticed something.
The Hall of Rebirth can be regarded as the last bridge between life and death. It has always dealt with evil things, and those "filth" are also part of the negative power.
The appearance of [filth] in this world will inevitably trigger the negative side of the power that already exists in this world.
It was normal for Hu Tao to notice the changes, and she was also able to confirm the identity of Zhongli and the immortal who appeared next to him.
That's why I asked this question now, wanting to know from Yuan Zhuoyue whether Liyue is facing any critical situation again now.
Walnut already had the ability to handle things on his own, but those [filth] were extremely difficult to deal with even for an immortal.
For ordinary people, it would be an even more insurmountable thorn in the flesh, so Yuan Zhuoyue had never planned from the beginning to let this girl, who was only a high school student, participate in it.
It would be a welcome thing if they had the power to resist filth and could work together to overcome difficulties.
But they do not have the ability to fight against the [filth]. Even if they try to stop the spread of this filth, the immortals in Liyue will probably have to pay a heavy price.
Yuan Zhuoyue naturally would not be willing to let them make unnecessary sacrifices.
She had originally planned to take some time to deal with those [filth], but she didn't expect that Mi Nu, who was too excited and agitated, left so abruptly.
He forgot to pay the bill and didn't leave her any Mora, which is why this incident happened.
As for Hu Tao's question, Yuan Zhuoyue only gave an ambiguous answer: "...something urgent happened at home, so he left in a hurry, which led to the scene you see now."
