Genshin Impact: This fireplace house is your graveyard.

Chapter 223 The Incomplete Sinaqi

The events of the afternoon, coupled with the fear brought on by the night, kept 98% of the children at Hearth House awake until dawn, as the sun rose as usual the next day.

The fear brought by the darkness slowly subsided, and Qiuhe's room, which was neither too big nor too small, was now filled with the messy bodies of two squads.

As the soft light of dawn quietly slipped into the room, Clayville finally opened his eyes slowly on the edge of his dream, his sleepy eyes containing the hazy feeling of just waking up.

What came into view was the face of Sinaqi, so close to his, their noses almost touching. He watched as the sunlight shone on that face, as beautiful as a blooming night-blooming cereus.

The world seemed to have turned into paradise, and all the sadness of yesterday afternoon and evening vanished like fleeting clouds.

All that remained was the subtle, warm breaths mingling between the two, and the irresistible fragrance emanating from Sinaqi. Krevi gently pressed his face against Sinaqi's neck, nuzzling her gently.

Feeling something rubbing against her, Sina slowly opened her eyes and finally realized it was Kreewei gently nuzzling against her neck.

Seeing this, Sinaqi slowly raised the hand that was holding Kreevi and gently stroked her head, feeling the tenderness caressing her head.

Kreewei then softly said, "Sinaqi, let me hold you a little longer." Hearing this, Sinaqi was somewhat bewildered.

"Krei, what are you saying..." Sinaqi realized something was wrong as soon as she finished speaking; she found that her voice had become extremely soft and delicate.

It was unmistakably a girl's voice. Lying on the bed, she seemed stunned for a moment, then, somewhat uncertain, slowly brought her hand to her eyes and looked at it.

Upon closer inspection, he was utterly dumbfounded. His hand had completely transformed; it now resembled the delicate, chubby pink hand of a little girl.

And that flawless, delicate skin! Sinaqi was stunned for a few seconds, then instantly sprang up from the bed as if she had springs in her body.

Feeling the unusual sensation in her hair, Si Naqi hurriedly brought it to her face and discovered that her hair was now unusually black and shiny.

And her hair was also very long. Kreeway, whose hair had been flung off by Sinagi's sudden movement, slowly sat up. "Sinagi, what's wrong?"

Hearing the groggy voice, Sina glanced at Krevi, then at her own long, flowing hair, her eyes darting quickly between the two.

It was as if a nuclear bomb had exploded in Qiuhe's mind in that instant. He was also somewhat confused as he looked at the abnormal Sinaqi Kreiwei in front of him.

"Sinaqi, you... had a nightmare?" Kreewei gently held Sinaqi's hand and asked with concern. Sinaqi looked at Kreewei upon hearing this.

Finally, he slowly closed his eyes, forcibly calming his erratic breathing and his racing heart, before gently placing his hands on Clay's shoulders.

“Listen, Clay, I’m not Senna. I’ve only changed my appearance to Senna. I’m Lei now.” Clay heard this…

Clearly, he was also sitting there blankly, his brain not quite processing what was happening. After everyone else in the room had woken up, Qiuhe finally gave a long explanation.

Everyone understood Qiuhe's current situation, and Tian Yaochen asked tentatively, "Uh, so... is this a good thing?"

After hearing Tian Yaochen's words, everyone was unsure whether to judge the matter as good or bad. "Actually, this matter isn't so bad after all."

If from now on, Leyi continues to switch between herself and Sinagi while maintaining her own consciousness, then there's no need to worry about the life issues caused by alternating between the two.

Hearing what Kailer said, everyone unanimously agreed. At least now they didn't have to worry about whether Sinaqi was selecting team members from her own perspective.

"Wait, did we forget something?" Lily suddenly asked, leaving everyone somewhat confused. "Qiu Shanshan. She..." Upon hearing this...

Only then did he realize what was happening, and he stiffly turned his head to look at the ground, but when he looked down, he found that Qiu Shanshan was gone.

It seems he left before the others woke up. It's fortunate that Qiuhe's ever-changing identity wasn't exposed.

Just then, the door suddenly opened, and a fool instructor led several people in, looking at the people inside and saying:

"The Hearth House needs some repairs today, so you can all leave." The last two teams also left the room.

After leaving the room, everyone noticed that people who looked like construction workers were repairing the walls of the Fireplace House.

When the group arrived at the central hall, the large section of floorboards that had been shattered by the energy erupted from Qiuhe the day before had just been dug out.

Furthermore, everyone noticed that the children who came out of the other rooms almost all had dark circles under their eyes, as if they hadn't slept well all night.

Only two familiar figures in the crowd seemed to be sleeping soundly, their faces unchanged; it was Qiu Er and Qiu Shanshan.

But the remaining two members and the rest of the group all looked like they hadn't slept well; most of them seemed dazed and confused.

Some even collapsed forward while walking, falling asleep on the ground. Qiu Shanshan, who was also looking towards the teams from Kreeway and Tianyao City,...

She also greeted these people, and the moment Qiu Shanshan called out Si Naqi's name, the children around her, who were still like walking corpses, suddenly...

She stopped abruptly, her eyes brightening, and quickly turned to look at Sinaqi. Upon seeing this, the entire scene fell silent.

"Uh...why are they...looking at us like that?" Sina asked in a low voice, voicing her doubts. Seeing this, Kailuo sighed helplessly.

"I should have told Leyi to cover her face." As soon as Kaile finished speaking, all the surrounding children swarmed forward like a zombie apocalypse.

The people trapped in the middle struggled to crawl out and quickly escaped, finally managing to reach Sinaqi's room before letting out a sigh of relief.

They both turned to look at Qiu Shanshan, who smiled awkwardly at the sight. "Uh, haha, sorry, I didn't expect that."

"Wow, Sinaqi is so popular!" After chatting for a while, Qiu Shanshan realized someone was missing. "Hey, where did Leyi go?"

Hearing Qiu Shanshan's question, everyone just hummed and hawed, unsure how to answer. "Is that even a question? Someone like that good-for-nothing..."

"I guess he was so scared by what happened last night that he fled the Hearth House in the middle of the night." After Chur's words, there was a moment of silence.

Finally, just as Clementine and Peruvier were about to express their dissatisfaction, Tian Yaochen jumped up in a rage.

"Hey, what are you saying?! You're the trash!" Tian Yaochen said, rolling up his sleeves to teach Qiu Er a lesson.

Since Qiu'er's strength was not yet higher than Tian Yaochen's at this time, if the two really fought, the outcome would be predictable.

Seeing this, Kree and the others quickly pulled back the agitated Tian Yaochen, after all, no one wanted to see a conflict break out. "Hmph, what's wrong?"

"You little bastard, your master's run away, and you're already throwing a tantrum. You love your master so much, wagging your tail and following him around!"

Seeing Qiu'er still wildly dancing in the minefield, Tian Yaochen was so angry he almost ground his teeth to powder. "Qiu'er!" he yelled.

Qiu Shanshan, standing to the side, instantly shouted angrily, "Take back what you just said and apologize immediately!" Seeing Qiu Shanshan suddenly erupt in fury...

Chur said with a helpless expression, "Captain, why are you so angry? Look, both of their squads are here now."

There was even a captain of an unfamiliar squad nearby, but that good-for-nothing wasn't there. Didn't that prove everything? Qiu Shanshan heard this.

She was so angry that her breathing became erratic. "I said, apologize right now!" This was the first time she'd seen Qiu Shanshan so unconcerned with her image when she was angry.

Chur was stunned for a few seconds, but finally gritted his teeth and said with a look of resentment and unwillingness, "Sorry, okay?"

Seeing this, Qiu Shanshan also apologized, "I'm sorry, Kreviperuvelli, I didn't manage Qiu Er well. Please don't be angry."

Seeing Qiu Shanshan so humbly apologizing to the group, Qiu Er, still angry, turned her head away. Finally, after Qiu Shanshan's apology...

With the persuasion of Kailer and the others, Tian Yaochen gradually calmed down. At this moment, Claire also looked at Sinaqi beside her.

But they found that he was lying quietly against the wall with his eyes closed, as if he were asleep.
