Mobile Game Wife Knocks on the Door

The more Laffey thought about it, the more dejected and upset she became. In her sorrow, she twisted off the cap of the bottle, tilted her head back, and took several large gulps straight from the bottle, trying to drown her sorrows in wine.

After half a bottle of red wine, Laffey's fair little face instantly turned rosy, like a ripe apple, with a lovely blush.

Ye Ming was dumbfounded.

He stared blankly for a while before he reacted, quickly snatching the red wine from Laffey's hand. He wanted to give Laffey a warning, but when he thought of the hint of loss the little girl had inadvertently revealed earlier, he could only sigh and pat her head.

"Let's go back."

"Okay."

Laffey obediently replied, tugging at Ye Ming's clothes as she followed him to pay the bill and leave the supermarket.

Feeling a little down, Ye Ming didn't notice the flash of cunning and satisfaction in the little girl's seemingly dazed wine-red eyes after successfully drinking the wine.

Maybe I should find some friends for Laffey to play with?

Ye Ming thought to himself on the way home.

A little girl like her must feel lonely without any friends to play with.

But Laffey is a Ship-Girl, after all, and Ye Ming wouldn't feel comfortable letting her play with ordinary children.

At this moment, Ye Ming couldn't help but think of Jeanne Alter, the youngest in mental age of the three women who had been confirmed to have disappeared from Fate/Grand Order.

Jeanne d'Arc was a French hero who liberated Orléans during the Hundred Years' War, and a Catholic saint. She was burned at the stake after being falsely accused, and only exonerated twenty-five years later.

The Jeanne d'Arc in FGO is the Heroic Spirit form of the legendary Jeanne after her death.

Jeanne Alter, on the other hand, is the corrupted form that suddenly appeared after Jeanne was burned at the stake. Although she is called the "Dragon Witch," she is actually just a little girl with a mature body and inherited memories. Although she has a sharp tongue, she is actually a tsundere who says one thing but means another, and is known as the easiest woman to deal with in Chaldea.

If it were Jeanne Alter, she should be able to play well with Laffey, right?

I wonder where Jeanne Alter is now?

Ye Ming sighed inwardly, took Laffey back home, opened the door, and was surprised to find that Fu Hua had already returned. The TV was on in the living room, and Fu Hua and Keqing were sitting on the sofa together watching TV, neither too close nor too far, creating a rather subtle atmosphere.

"We're back."

With that, Ye Ming took a deep breath and walked into the house.

Chapter 62: Jeanne Alter Complains, Hu Tao Sends Off

Across the ocean, on American soil, late at night.

"When the sun comes out, I bask in the sun, when the moon comes out, I bask in the moonlight~"

A sweet, lovely, and energetic young girl's song echoed from the dim alley.

Jeanne Alter, draped in a black trench coat, happened to pass by and curiously glanced into the alley.

The darkness couldn't stop Jeanne Alter, a Heroic Spirit, from seeing everything in the alley at a glance.

At the end of the alley, a girl was happily waving a shovel, digging a hole in the ground.

The girl had delicate features, and her waist-length brown pigtails danced cheerfully as she swung the shovel. She wore a dark brown mid-length dress and black boots, and the dark clothing made her already fair skin even whiter.

The scene had a somewhat eerie atmosphere.

"The big Hilichurl is sick, the second Hilichurl visits; the third Hilichurl gathers herbs, the fourth Hilichurl brews; the fifth Hilichurl dies, the sixth Hilichurl carries~ eh... hoo."

Singing an unknown song cheerfully, the girl finally dug a pit big enough for one person, stuck the shovel into the ground, stepped on it, wiped her forehead, which wasn't sweating at all, and gently sighed.

Then, she began to wave the shovel again, starting to fill the pit.

Jeanne Alter curiously looked into the pit and found that there was nothing in it, it was completely empty.

Confused by the girl's actions, Jeanne Alter couldn't help but ask, "Hey, there's nothing in that pit, why are you digging it up and filling it back in?"

"Hey! I can't help it."

Seemingly having noticed Jeanne Alter's presence long ago, the girl filling the pit wasn't surprised at all. She continued to diligently wave the shovel, answering without turning her head, "Everyone cremates now, and no one follows the traditional funeral rules anymore. The ancestral skills have no use, so I can only come out and practice alone occasionally at night to keep my skills sharp."

"Funeral?"

Hearing the girl's answer, Jeanne Alter became interested. "Hey, are you a funeral director?"

"You could say that."

As she spoke, the girl had already filled the pit, and turned around to look at Jeanne Alter with the shovel in her hand. "What, do you have any business needs in that area? If you do, feel free to come to me. I have everything here, from guarding the coffin to burial methods, memorial tablets, and other equipment. The second tombstone is even half price."

"I do have someone I hate."

Jeanne Alter curiously examined the shovel in the girl's hand. "That guy, he told me not to get close to him, but he kept getting closer and closer to me, teasing me. He knew I was a cursed witch, and I threatened him that if he dared to get close, I would strangle him, burn him, and send him to hell, but he still approached me and teased me without permission."

"Sounds like a hateful scoundrel indeed." Hu Tao said indignantly, "So, do you want to order a full set of funeral services? I can personally handle that scoundrel's funeral."

"He is indeed a hateful scoundrel." Jeanne Alter gritted her teeth. "That annoying guy kept harassing me, teasing me, and deceiving my feelings. If it weren't for the fact that he's my Master, I would have set him on fire long ago."

"But even though he's such an annoying guy, after spending so much time together, I finally reluctantly accepted him and decided to accompany him to the end of hell, but that guy suddenly disappeared for no reason and never showed up again!"

"What, so you like him."

The girl was a little disappointed after hearing Jeanne Alter's words. "I thought I would have a chance to handle a funeral again."

"Who, who said I like him?"

Hearing the girl's words, Jeanne Alter's face flushed red, and she stammered, "I, I only accepted him because he's my Master, he, he has Command Spells to order me, I had no choice but to reluctantly accept him, that kind of irresponsible bastard, if I can find him, I'll give him a piece of my mind!"

"How about leaving him to me? Whether he lives or dies, I can personally handle his funeral and guarantee satisfaction for both of you."

The girl suggested.

"Huh? Ah, um, no, no need. I, I want to teach him a lesson myself, give him a good beating."

Jeanne Alter was startled by the girl's words and quickly retorted.

Her suggestion rejected again, the girl who couldn't handle the funeral was disappointed. Still, she took out a business card from her pocket and handed it to Jeanne Alter: "This is my card. Feel free to contact me for anything you need in the future. I enjoyed chatting with you today. If you come to me, I can give you a 50% discount."

Jeanne Alter curiously took the card and looked at it, finding the following written on it:

Wangsheng Funeral Parlor Director: Hu Tao.

Business Scope: Funeral Arrangements.

At the very bottom were the contact details.

Jeanne Alter held the card, thought for a moment, stuffed it into her pocket, and took out her own business card, handing it to Hu Tao: "This is my card. I enjoyed chatting with you today. I hope we can all be friends in the future."

Hu Tao reached out and took it, stunned by the words on the card—Mond International, Head of the Guard Department: Jeanne d'Arc.

Mond?

Could it be that Mond from Teyvat? Have they come to this world like us?

She's from Mond?

Hu Tao was very surprised.

"Sorry, I suddenly remembered I have something to do, so I'll leave first. See you next time, bye-bye!"

Hu Tao waved goodbye to Jeanne Alter, then, carrying her iron shovel, she scurried away and disappeared into the darkness.

I must tell Ganyu and the others this news!

"Because I heard about Mond International from Hu Tao, I specifically had someone investigate. I discovered that Mond International is a European company whose business has extended to the mainland. The head of Mond is likely someone we know."

On the way to the airport, Ganyu sat in the back seat, explaining to Enterprise beside her: "In the past, Liyue and Mond had both competition and cooperation, but now, it's more likely to be competition. Therefore, we must set off early and go to the mainland to avoid Mond seizing the initiative and putting us at a disadvantage."

Enterprise listened silently, looking at the plane ticket in her hand, without saying a word.

These were tickets for tonight. After getting on the plane and sleeping through the night, she would arrive on the mainland early the next morning.

Arriving on the mainland also meant getting one step closer to the Commander.

How is the Commander doing? Is Laffey with the Commander?

Have any other Ship-Girls from other factions come to this world like her and found the Commander?

The former White Eagle war god was now filled with apprehension, not listening to Ganyu's words at all.

Once she arrives on the mainland, she can use that girl named Keqing's power and utilize Liyue's information network to find the Commander, right?

Will she be able to find the Commander smoothly?

A premonition in the dark told Enterprise that this trip to the mainland might soon yield good results.

Commander, please wait a little longer. Enterprise will definitely find you!

"We're back."

Saying this, Ye Ming took a deep breath and entered the house.
