Chapter 108: Praise Time
Failed to save face.
Ming Chong actually remembered this relatively complicated name, and it looked like he was actually planning to try using it as a pretense...
But this is not important. Furninna casually put the matter behind her and stood proudly on the orbit patrol ship that was sailing for the first time, with her hands on her hips and laughing.
The important thing is——
"Hahahaha! What do you think? This is the route designed and constructed independently by my people. It doesn't come from any official organization!"
Ming Chong had been sitting quietly in the patrol boat waiting for it to start. Upon hearing this, his eyes widened. "What's there to be proud of? Doesn't it just show that your government's infrastructure isn't up to par?"
“Otherwise, why is it hosted by a non-governmental organization?”
"Ahem!" Finina turned to look at him in disbelief. "That's totally wrong!" Why is this statement so different from what you said at the beginning?!
Then, Funina shook her head and swallowed the words that might reveal the information.
"This is how Fontaine governs itself. The Fontaine Academy of Sciences and the Narcissus Cross Society, which were first established over four hundred years ago, were merely private organizations!"
Funina's face read, "You don't understand this, Fontaine has its own national conditions," and she began to speak at length. "How can the rail patrol ship project, spearheaded by the grassroots and the non-governmental organization [Rose Thorn Society], not be seen as a symbol of self-reform among the people of Fontaine?"
"...So, we in Fontaine have been..." Before Funina finished her words, the patrol ship started moving.
It took a while, just enough time for a cup of coffee.
Ming Chong flicked Fu Nina's stiff fur. "I was wondering why there wasn't a guide or anything like that on this ship. I didn't expect it to be so fast! We arrived at the port in no time."
"Hmm!" Funina walked off the boat tremblingly, putting one hand on Ming Chong's hand, and almost fell when she stepped on flat ground.
"Hey~ Don't try to scam me." Ming Chong slid to the side sleekly, raised his hands, and winked at Funina who had not yet recovered.
Witnessing this scene, Funina gritted her teeth, wishing she could bite him. If it weren't for the time she had to accommodate this ungrateful bastard, he would definitely not have been able to ride the first train after the Clementine Line opened!
With a little bit of power, the Fontaine officials happily arranged for the restless elements at night, and the water god boarded the patrol boat far away from Fontaine Court.
"But the name [Fontainebleau Academy of Sciences] sounds very important. Why didn't I see it just now?" Ming Chong looked around, gazing as far as he could against the flight path in the night.
Funina stood up straight, glanced at him sideways, snorted heavily, let out a breath, and was too lazy to say anything. She felt that it was unnecessary to say anything to Ming Chong at this time.
Generally speaking, people don’t learn from what they learn, but it is more effective to teach people through events.
"Lady Funina, we have arrived at the [Haileu Port] station. When will we depart next time?" The staff came out respectfully and inquired about the return time so that they could make plans early.
"Wait a while." Furninna was frightened at the speed and sighed. She then said a few more words and sent the man away.
Ming Chong adapted well. He was still jumping around, looking around, touching here and there, which made Funina very uncomfortable.
In fact, this speed of patrol ship awakened Ming Chong's memory of modern life. It is fast, convenient and high-tech. No wonder the legendary Fontainebleau sounds more like a city than cities in other countries.
Although the stereotype is not very nice, it does make sense!
——The Fontaine people live in the city, the Inazuma people live in the village, and the Xumi people live in the trees.
"You seem to be adapting quite well! But it's a pity that this route will probably have to be rectified soon." Funina rested for a while, walked to the waterway, and patted Ming Chong on the shoulder.
"Why? Isn't this good?"

"From what I can see, the energy consumption is a bit high, and there are not that many merchants taking this route..." Funina explained casually.
As she spoke, she began to boast proudly again, "Besides, there are many people in Fontaine who pay attention to their image, but not all of them are like me, Funina, who can maintain her elegant demeanor in such extreme circumstances..."
"..." Ming Chong responded calmly, "Oh."
Finina didn't get angry. She asked, "So, what else do you want to do next?"
Ming Chong thought for a moment, then slammed his palm, "Ah! It really is!"
"Ah? Really?" Daimao shook his head, and Furninna was a little dumbfounded. "I was just asking casually..."
After all, according to her understanding of Ming Chong, he had completed the important task that he was worried about by taking the patrol boat. If it was not necessary, he should say goodbye to this time soon.
Of course, Funina hasn't experienced the initial acquaintance stage yet, especially when she knows that she will become friends with someone who harms each other, Ming Chong will never give up on taking this opportunity to make trouble!
Ahaha!
"Although we'll be friends in the future, we've only just met! What bad intentions could Chong have? He's not even a fraction of your age, Funina. What's wrong with him doing something to give you something to think about?!"
- If I have caused you trouble and you insist on saying something, what if I say that I didn't notice that I was causing you trouble because we were not very familiar with each other at that time?

So Ming Chong said nothing and ran away with a sigh.

As the Holy Trinity Crown Night was coming to an end, the Momang Palace began to get busy, and everyone had a feeling that "it's finally here".
It is said that the Water God, who can be randomly refreshed throughout Fontaine, escaped again after experiencing the patrol ship, and the most recent time was when watching a magic show.
For the people of Fontaine, the most frightening time is when they cannot find the water goddess Funina, especially at night.
If someone could stand by and watch, everyone would feel a little more at ease, which would mean that Lady Funina had not come up with any new ideas on a whim.
History has proven that every time Lady Funina escapes and is not found within a certain period of time, an explosive incident occurs.
——At this moment, a Funina nodded.
She felt that she was really, really wronged.
The chronological order is as follows: Ming Chong disappears—> Funina discovers him—> Funina goes to find him—> the people of Fontaine lose sight of the water god—> something big happens—> Funina appears again.
Although the people of Fontaine love this water god very much, every second without seeing him is extremely painful.
Funina was also in great pain.
The only one that is not disturbed is probably Mingchong.
"Wow, is this your daughter? She's quite funny." A young man suddenly appeared on the wall of Kasapa's house and waved casually to the owner.
As soon as he said this, he turned around and saw a scene that almost made Carres' heart stop. His only daughter jumped down from the eaves of the house without caring about the seriousness of the matter and laughing, towards the direction of the young man sitting on the wall.
"Hahahahaha! You caught me!!!" The little girl cheered and clapped her hands as the young man lifted her up and shook her weight.
"Hey, it's still solid."
Kares almost roared, "Who are you?"
The other party blinked cunningly, "Don't you recognize me? I'm not pretending to be anything."
Yes, Cares soon discovered that this man displayed his name tag with great fanfare, and was more arrogant and conceited than any noble he knew.
So, he snorted coldly, "Oh, of course, I have eyes and can see for myself, a man called Leosli of Fontaine."
"Pfft..." Ming Chong couldn't help laughing out loud. There was a note stuck on his forehead for disguise, which read "A man named Leosli from Fontaineland".
Navia looked at Cares in confusion, who didn't notice anything was wrong at all, "Dad, what are you reading?"
"..." Cares finally reacted and his face turned redder and redder.
In the eyes of this mature and steady single father, the evil man who tricked his daughter into jumping off the roof was defeated miserably at the first sight.
Then, he quickly entered the room.
"Wow~ Is this the Casapa family who's in charge of the rail patrol ship project? They're truly as approachable as their reputation says!"
"Wow~ Is this the official cooperation certificate of the [Rose Thorn Society]? So honest, so reliable, and so capable~"
"Wow~ Is this (chew chew chew) Casapa's macaron (chew chew chew)?"
As he listened to the compliments, Cares frowned. The festival hadn't ended yet, and the other party was still wearing a hat that didn't look right... Cares didn't refuse him in the end.
You know, the Gray River is a mixed bag, with all kinds of people, but fools are the most trustworthy...
"Hahaha! Pretty good, right?" Navia followed Ming Chong in small steps, her smile clear as a gleam. She generously pushed over several plates and waved her hand, "I made these macarons! This, this, and this, you can try them all!"
Even so, Carles' eyes were fixed on Ming Chong. He had just sat down and slowly picked up the teacup... Hmm? Didn't drink it?
"Dad, the older brother has drunk up all the black tea on the table!" Navia picked up the teapot and glanced at Cares. She told Cares loudly what happened and then prepared to make another pot herself.
The little kid happily pushed some of the macarons on his side to Ming Chong, then turned around to make black tea.
"..." Carles wanted to say that his cup of black tea had just cooled to the right temperature, but before he could drink a sip, it was drunk by this Fontaine man, no, by this Leosli.
——Is this appropriate?
——Just asking if this is appropriate?!
Late in the night, after riding an open-top high-speed train and feeling a lot of cold wind, Ming Chong ate something to fill his stomach, drank some black tea, and breathed a sigh of relief. Then he smiled and watched Navia busying herself with something to entertain him.
This scene was like triggering a button in Ming Chong's brain, and he immediately opened up his mouth to talk, which was much more sincere than the random parallel sentences he had said before:
"Hmm... As expected of the Kasapa family, you take the initiative to do practical things. I kind of want to have a child like your daughter."
As soon as the words came out, Ming Chong felt that Cesar must have infected him. He told people that he wanted to have a child with the other person right after they met. This was too—
The anger between Carles's brows suddenly disappeared.
Huh? It really works!
