Star Rail, My Little Shop on the Train 84
Chapter 84: Hutao vs. The Signore
Liyue Harbor, inside the Northland Bank.
The Signore arrived with her subordinates.
“Where’s the Young Master? Why isn’t he here?”
One of the Young Master’s subordinates quickly replied, “The Young Master went to Wang Sheng Tang internet cafe to play games.”
The Signore frowned. Play? This Young Master actually has the time to play games? The Tsaritsa’s grand plan hasn’t been realized yet, and he dares to play games!
“Take me to him!”
The Young Master’s subordinate quickly led the Signore to the Wang Sheng Tang internet cafe.
About half an hour later, the Signore arrived at the internet cafe’s entrance.
The usually quiet Wang Sheng Tang was now bustling with people, most of them there to use the internet.
The young receptionist at the entrance, seeing the Signore and her group, quickly stepped forward to greet them.
“Excuse me, are you here to use the internet or to handle Wang Sheng Tang business?”
The Signore glanced at the receptionist, arrogantly walked directly into Wang Sheng Tang, ignoring the receptionist completely.
The Signore looked around the courtyard and quickly found the internet cafe, because that’s where most people were gathered.
The Signore entered the internet cafe and immediately saw the Young Master sitting near the entrance, playing Meteor Butterfly Sword.
“Little noob, take this! Beautiful! Finally, revenge is mine!”
The Young Master excitedly played Meteor Butterfly Sword, feeling that this type of game was perfectly tailored for a martial arts fanatic like himself.
The Young Master was completely engrossed, enjoying himself immensely.
However, while the Young Master was having fun, the Signore was extremely unhappy.
The Signore walked directly to the Young Master, ordering the person sitting next to him to get up.
“You, get up.”
The person called by the Signore looked back at her.
“Who are you? If you want to play, get in line. Scram, don’t bother me.”
A surge of anger rose within the Signore. She slapped the person with a blast of Cryo energy.
The person who had just insulted the Signore was sent flying, and even the computer in front of them flew off, crashing against the wall and shattering into pieces.
The Young Master finally reacted, quickly taking off his headphones. Seeing the enraged Signore, he immediately knew he was in trouble.
This is over! This is Liyue! Back then, he had arrived in Liyue with the same arrogance, and only after getting beaten up twice did he learn to be more reserved.
The Young Master pulled the Signore.
“Let’s go! You’ve caused trouble!”
The Signore flung the Young Master’s hand away.
“Caused trouble? You, a mere Fatui Executive, are afraid of what? I’ll just see what these people can do to me!”
The Young Master clicked his tongue, looking at the Signore. He inexplicably felt that the Signore was somewhat similar to himself when he first arrived in Liyue.
At this moment, Hutao and Yelan, who were working on a new machine, came out.
Hutao saw the chaotic scene and immediately became angry.
“What’s going on? Who’s making trouble here?”
Yelan looked around and quickly identified the culprit.
“Hutao, it’s that woman.”
Hutao looked at the Signore.
“Who are you? Making trouble in my Wang Sheng Tang? Have we offended you?”
The Signore coldly snorted.
“Tell me, how much will it cost to settle this?”
Hutao was extremely displeased with the Signore’s attitude. It was clearly her fault, yet she acted like the victim.
“Hey, how dare you act like this? Daring to cause trouble in my Wang Sheng Tang! Today, you’ll learn about the might of this hall master!”
Hutao drew her Staff of Homa and attacked the Signore.
The Signore quickly dodged, running towards the outside.
The two engaged in battle outside.
Hutao is one of the top experts in Liyue; her martial arts skills were learned from none other than Zhong Li, the Geo Archon of Tivat!
The Signore couldn’t gain any advantage against Hutao. Hutao relentlessly attacked, pushing the Signore back.
Seeing this, the Young Master sighed. They were, after all, colleagues in the same faction; it wouldn’t look good if he didn’t help.
Just as the Young Master was about to intervene, a calm voice came from the side.
“I think you’d be better off watching from here, wouldn’t you?”
The Young Master looked to the side and saw Yelan chewing gum and playing a game.
Although Yelan’s tone was calm, the Young Master felt a strong sense of threat.
The Young Master had a premonition that if he intervened, he might be instantly subdued by this girl.
His choice proved correct.
On the hillside next to Wang Sheng Tang, an old woman with white hair stood, watching Hutao overwhelm the Signore with satisfaction.
“Truly worthy of being the Emperor’s child, her martial arts are indeed remarkable.”
The Signore, completely unable to fight back, was filled with disbelief.
Impossible! How could she be suppressed by a little girl!
The Signore’s anger intensified, transforming into her Pyro Butterfly form.
“Die!!!”
The Signore’s sudden outburst caught Hutao off guard. Hutao had no time to dodge and could only prepare to take the blow head-on.
Just as the Signore was about to strike Hutao, Yelan suddenly spoke.
“Freeze!”
The Signore suddenly felt a loss of control over her body, and she was frozen in mid-air.
Yelan put away her game console, and a virtual keyboard appeared in front of her right hand.
“Alright, alright, this farce is over.”
Yelan rapidly typed on the keyboard, and a beam of ethereal energy slammed into the Signore, knocking her to the ground.
The immense force caused the ground to sink considerably.
The Young Master gulped, watching Yelan effortlessly subdue the Signore.
He was glad he hadn’t intervened; otherwise, he would have ended up on the ground like the Signore.
Yelan walked to Hutao’s side, blew a bubble, and glanced at the unconscious Signore lying at her feet with disdain.
“Is that all? With that kind of strength, she dares to cause trouble?”
Yelan turned to the Young Master.
“Hey you, come and take her away. Remember to pay for the computer and the floor.”
The Young Master agreed, and several subordinates carried the Signore away.
After the Young Master and Signore left, Yelan and Hutao took a short break before resuming the assembly of the new computer.
Late at night, inside the Northland Bank, the Signore slowly regained consciousness.
As soon as the Signore tried to move, she felt intense pain throughout her body, causing her to cry out.
“Hiss! It hurts!”
The Young Master, seeing the Signore wake up, shook his head helplessly.
“I told you to leave, but you didn’t believe me. Now you’re paying the price! You had to get beaten up before you’d listen.”
The Signore finally remembered what had happened. She hadn’t expected Liyue to have so many strong people.
A young girl could fight her evenly, and there was that other girl who had effortlessly subdued her.
What kind of monsters are in Liyue? So young, yet so strong.
Seeing the Signore reflect on her foolish actions, the Young Master said, “This is just the tip of the iceberg. You haven’t seen the truly powerful ones yet. Liyue… it can be a very dangerous place.”
