After the group wear, I became the group darling of the big guys

Chapter 240 Bad Taste

"Little Diona, you're finally back." A woman suddenly appeared at the back door. She looked at Diona behind the counter with a smile, "Now the turnover of the Cat's Tail Tavern can finally exceed the gift from the angels."

Diona pouted: "That's really sad news."

"Don't say that." The woman shook her head as a matter of course. "I'm just giving you a chance to practice, right? Maybe one day your special features will disappear."

"This is the child you brought back. Hello, I'm Margaret, the owner of the Cat's Tail Tavern." The woman's eyes shifted away from Diona and turned to look at Yuji Itadori who was brought back.

Yuji Itadori quickly stood up, bowed to Margaret, and said loudly: "Hello, boss, I am Yuji Itadori, nice to meet you!"

The people who were drinking around burst into laughter. Yulia quickly pulled Yuji Itadori up and said, "Don't be so reserved. When Boss Margaret looks at you like that, it usually means she has something for you to do."

"That's right, maybe we can get some benefit from her right now, like giving her a free drink." Enoch said loudly.

Margaret covered her mouth and smiled: "Don't be so reserved, but I do need little Tiger Stick to do something."

Yuji Itadori looked at the adults around him who were either drunk or trying to do that, then looked at the thin Diona, and finally fell on Margaret.

Either they were drunkards, children, or women, and it seemed that he was the only one who could go out to do things.

"Of course, I will pay you for this. I won't let you do it for nothing." Margaret said with her hands on her hips. Diona poked her head out from behind the counter. "You are going to Liyue, right? I want to go too. I don't have enough Liuli bags and Qingxin. I have to buy some."

"Sure, but I don't want to buy these things." Faced with Diona's request, Margaret agreed very straightforwardly, and turned to Yuji Itadori and said, "Actually, I want to buy a few boxes of Miss Liyue Ying'er's perfume. As for the scent... I'd better choose the type of young girl."

Yuji Itadori was a little confused, but he still nodded and agreed.

It's just a shop. You should be able to find it by asking when you get there.

"Let's go, let's go, we have to leave quickly." Diona rushed out like a little cannonball, grabbing Yuji Itadori and running away.

However, when passing by the department store, a calm and gentle boy's voice suddenly appeared and called Diona.

Diona turned around and saw a young man standing next to a strange platform.

With golden hair, white knight uniform and handsome face, this is undoubtedly a young man whose looks can instantly kill many men.

"Mr. Albedo, what's wrong?" Albedo walked over, his boots touching the ground, making extremely crisp footsteps.

He first ruffled Diona's hair, then looked at Yuji Itadori and asked, "Is this the man you brought back?"

"Yes, does he have any problem?" The moment she asked this question, Diona let go of Yuji Itadori's hand. She took a few steps towards Albedo and stared at Yuji Itadori with caution.

What, what's going on?

Yuji Itadori was a little confused, and his eyes fell on Albedo.

He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that there was a strange and inhuman feeling about this young man, as if the person standing in front of him was not a person, but a weird collective.

"No, Diona, there is nothing wrong with him." Albedo said calmly, "Few ordinary people come to Teyvat, and the environment here is very different from the outside world. I just want to invite you to my laboratory. I need to make sure that you can adapt to the environment here and will not have any rejection reaction after you go back."

"Are you going to do another experiment?" Diona's eyes widened. "How long have you and Klee been back?"

"This is my job, Diona, I have to do it. And recently the anomalies on the snowy mountain have become more and more serious." Albedo shook his head, his eyes flashing with anxiety and worry, "I have to make sure those things don't appear in advance."

There are still five days left, and we must suppress it for another four days.

Sometimes Albedo would think that if the squad leader had stopped him when exchanging this base, perhaps this collective outbreak could have been temporarily delayed.

But it's useless to say this now, no one can go back to the past.

"Okay. Where is your laboratory?" Yuji Itadori, who was listening silently, suddenly realized something. What it meant was that Mr. Albedo had other work, so he hoped that he could complete the experiment as soon as possible.

This is easy to do. If it does not pose a threat to life, he can conduct the experiment.

"There." Albedo pointed behind Yuji Itadori. Looking in the direction Albedo pointed, a snow-capped mountain shrouded in clouds came into view.

It is extremely tall and majestic, and does not look like a place where humans can survive at all. Yuji Itadori dares to assert that if this snow mountain were placed outside, it would only be suitable as a location for extreme challenges.

"Are we at the top of the mountain?" Yuji Itadori put his hands over his eyes and looked at it, and suddenly asked.

"Halfway up the mountain." Albedo said, "Diona, when you're done with your business, please send him to my laboratory. Remember to tell Klee to listen to Captain Jean in the Knights' Order these two days."

"Okay, I'll bring it there." Diona nodded, and after saying goodbye, she took Yuji Itadori to the outside of Mondstadt.

Standing at the other end of the bridge, looking at the towering city across the bridge and then at the endless grassland behind him, Yuji Itadori suddenly stopped.

Diona noticed it and turned around to look at Yuji Itadori: "What's wrong?"

"You guys—" Yuji Itadori paused for a long time, as if hesitating whether to ask or not, "Did anything happen to you?"

He saw the change in Diona's expression just now.

Diona, who had originally trusted him, became alert again because of Albedo's ambiguous question.

Diona pursed her lips. Of course, they had experienced this many times.

From the first time till now, their thinking and the way of acting have not changed.

Let the world become familiar with the demon remnants, let the world adapt to the demon remnants, and then let the world evolve special people who can deal with the demon remnants.

Since this world needs them because of the remnants of the demon god, let this world solve the problem on its own.

The world cannot stop human adaptability.

But many times, many, many times, the humans they brought in had subroutines left behind by the "system" in their bodies, which would instantly replace the human's own consciousness and start the next reincarnation at all costs.

I really don’t know what’s wrong with this “system”.

Maybe it is just a madman who likes to watch the world burn, and likes to watch those unlucky people chosen by it collapse, assimilate, and become a part of it.

Just look at those "ordinary people" scattered throughout Teyvat and you will know how evil its taste is.
