Chapter 397

Takumi named Barbara's show, which was just his own little spoof.

Takumi thought it was quite interesting.

Maybe Klee's mother would see it and come over to participate?

After all, the concept of idols was brought over by Klee's mother.

Takumi took care of many things in Mondstadt.

Then he was ready to leave.

Many things had been completely completed.

The rest was up to them.

When they learned that Takumi was leaving, Captain Jean, Barbara, and Lisa came to see him off.

"Takumi, come to Mondstadt next time when you have time."

"You've helped us a lot during this time."

Jean knew Takumi was very busy, so she didn't hold him back too much.

After all, Takumi was the manager of Guiliyuan and still had many things to handle.

Hearing her words, Takumi nodded.

"Alright! I'll come over next time when I have time."

After talking with Jean, Takumi set off with Keqing.

They started their return to Liyue directly.

The two rode motorcycles and took off into the sky.

After reaching altitude, they accelerated at full speed, heading directly toward Guiliyuan.

Jean and the others watched as Takumi departed, then returned to the Knights' office.

Back inside, Jean began issuing orders.

She instructed the alchemists to start learning programming.

Takumi had brought many books this time.

These books were distributed to the alchemists so they could study if they were interested.

At the same time, computers and other necessary equipment would also be provided.

Additionally, Jean had an announcement posted.

The matter of ID cards needed to be addressed.

Now that everything was ready, it was time to begin processing Mondstadt's ID cards.

The announcement was posted, informing people that once all materials had been uploaded, they could begin applying for ID cards.

Takumi and Keqing returned to Guiliyuan at full speed.

By the time they arrived, it was already dark.

Instead of going to the General Affairs Department, they returned to Takumi's manor.

At that time, Noelle, Ayaka Kamisato, and Yoimiya were all in Takumi's manor.

Seeing Takumi return, all three were surprised.

Immediately, they stood up to greet him.

"Takumi, Keqing, welcome back!"

"Master Takumi, Miss Keqing, welcome home."

"Takumi, and Keqing, you're back!"

The three greeted Takumi in unison.

Hearing them, Takumi nodded.

"Yes, we're back."

"Has Shenhe not returned yet?"

Looking around, Shenhe's presence was absent.

"Miss Shenhe should be here soon. She is still at the General Affairs Department."

Noelle quickly explained.

Hearing this, Takumi didn't think much about it.

After nodding, he stored away his motorcycle.

Then he took something out of the Heart of God.

"These are the things I brought back from Mondstadt. Noelle, here are some specialties from Springvale."

"Let's have this for dinner tonight."

Takumi took out various ingredients from Mondstadt.

Noelle's eyes lit up upon seeing them.

"Alright! I'll start cooking right away."

It had been a while since she left Mondstadt, and she missed her hometown's flavors.

Now she could taste them again, making her very happy.

As Noelle left to prepare dinner, Takumi took out his phone and sent messages to Eula and Amber, inviting them to dinner.

Upon receiving Takumi's message, both returned quickly.

They would arrive later.

After waiting for a while, Shenhe was the first to return.

When she saw Takumi, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"Takumi, you're back!"

Saying this, Shenhe parked her vehicle and ran forward.

Seeing her, Takumi couldn't help but smile.

Keqing, standing nearby, pouted slightly.

Hmph~!

Her heart felt inexplicably heavy.

Back in Guiliyuan, Takumi belonged to Shenhe.

She wasn't envious.

Not long after Shenhe arrived, the others followed one after another.

Eula, Amber, and Yae Miko.

When Yae Miko saw Takumi, she smiled and asked:

"You're done with Mondstadt. When are you coming to Inazuma to help us set up the household registration system?"

Hearing her words, Takumi rolled his eyes.

"If you want, I'll just give you the server. You can take it back yourself."

"I don't need to go to Inazuma for that."

"You can handle it on your own."

"Ei is an excellent programmer. Once she understands everything, she can easily take care of it."

The Raiden Shogun had even created artificial intelligence.

As long as they had the server, with both the Shogun and Ei around, it wouldn't be difficult to set things up.

There was no need for Takumi to personally go there.

Just bringing the necessary materials and providing some guidance would be enough.

Yae Miko blinked upon hearing Takumi's response.

"Is that so?"

It seemed reasonable.

That woman was indeed highly skilled in technology.

After all, she had created the Shogun.

Yae Miko didn't press the matter further.

Once everyone had arrived, dinner began.

Everyone enjoyed the ingredients from Mondstadt and felt very happy.

After eating and drinking to their satisfaction, they all returned to their respective homes.

Takumi also went to rest.

Returning to his room with Shenhe, a long night ensued.

After all, while staying with Keqing, he couldn't be as free.

Hearing the sounds coming from the room, Noelle, who happened to be passing by, blushed deeply and hurried back to her room.

The night passed without further incident, and the next day, Takumi arrived at the General Affairs Department, refreshed and ready for work.

Keqing also returned to her duties, tackling the backlog of work she had left behind.

Next, she would be planning a new development route.

Takumi had already mentioned that Liyue would be constructing various water conservancy projects.

Some older areas also needed renovations.

Especially Qingce Village.

That place was Liyue's granary, so it was a priority.

Some of the rundown areas needed reconstruction.

These projects required Keqing's attention.

She would conduct on-site investigations before drafting a plan.

In Qingce Village, water was currently diverted into the fields using water trucks.

With modern technology, they could implement better solutions.

Additionally, some old houses near Liyue Harbor needed to be demolished and rebuilt.

Since Keqing was in charge of land management and construction, these matters fell under her responsibilities.

Because of her role, Keqing was now stationed near Takumi.

After all, many tasks required her direct involvement.
