Chapter 308 Ningguang's Story
Chapter 308 Ningguang's Story
Conan looked around curiously, and at this moment, he heard Xia Xi explaining to Sonoko and Xiaolan, and his attention was immediately diverted.
Xia Xi: "This is the Qun Yu Pavilion."
Everyone: Huh?
"Is it Miss Ningguang's Qun Yu Pavilion?" Mao Lilan asked curiously.
Yuanzi was also puzzled: Isn’t Qun Yu Pavilion the name of Miss Ningguang’s company? How come it has become a building now?
"Yeah." Xia Xi nodded, "This can be considered Ningguang's dream."
Facing the curious gazes of everyone including Conan and Hattori, Xia Xi further explained: "When Ningguang was a child, she wanted to build a palace of her own. It would be even better if this palace was suspended thousands of feet in the sky and could overlook the beautiful scenery of the world. Unfortunately, Ningguang later realized that she would not be able to realize her dream in this world, so she showed the Qun Yu Pavilion of her dreams in this holographic image."
After hearing Xia Xi's words, everyone had different reactions.
Conan and Okiya Subaru looked at Xia Xi thoughtfully, as if thinking about her identity, and how she even knew Ningguang's dream from long ago.
Xiaolan and Sonoko looked around curiously, feeling fresh about everything around them.
However, the children did not think too much about it. They were attracted by the beautiful scenery of Qun Yu Pavilion and exclaimed in amazement.
Yuan Tai opened his mouth wide, staring at the huge palace in front of him, and muttered to himself: "Wow! How much eel rice can I buy with such a big palace?" In his mind, he had already begun to imagine himself sitting in the middle of a pile of eel rice, enjoying the delicious food.
Mitsuhiko shook his head helplessly, speechless about Yuantai's greed, "Yuanta, don't just think about food. Besides, this is a holographic projection, there is no such building in reality." He tried to make Yuantai understand that this was not a real place.
Ayumi completely ignored the discussion of the two boys beside her. She, Klee and Haibara looked around, admiring the beautiful scenery outside the Qun Yu Pavilion.
Sera Masumi: "It seems that Miss Ningguang is quite ambitious."
Xia Xi tilted her head and chuckled, "This is normal, isn't it? Ningguang is a businessman, and it's common for a businessman to be ambitious."
"Miss Ningguang was just a fishmonger before. How could she become a successful businessman without ambition?"
Xia Xi suddenly thought of something, and with a smile on her face, she said, "Come to think of it, Ningguang had once thought of auctioning off the Eye of God in order to raise funds."
"Eye of God?" It was the first time that Masumi Sera heard this term and he repeated it in confusion.
"Oh, it's the ornament on Ningguang's waist. Some people like it very much. It can be sold for a good price if it is auctioned."
Sera Masumi: "It looks like the items didn't sell?"
Sonoko was also puzzled: "Miss Ningguang is so amazing, how come it didn't sell? Could it be stolen during the auction?" Sonoko thought of her other idol, Lord Kidd.
"Well, no."
Xia Xi denied Yuanzi's unreliable guess, and Yuanzi was a little discouraged. She thought she could hear about some unknown actions of Lord Kidd.
"The treasure has a spirit, and it recognizes Ningguang as its master. This means it is no longer ownerless, so even if it is sold, it will return to its owner." Xia Xi said in a storytelling tone, "So it naturally cannot be auctioned."
Xiaolan and Sonoko: "Wow, this is a really romantic story."
Obviously, most people didn't take what Xia Xi said seriously, they just listened to it as a story.
Xia Xi smiled and did not refute.
Conan rolled his eyes, then jumped off his seat and ran to Kamisato Ayato, who had been quietly listening to the conversation, and asked curiously like a child, "So Kamisato-brother, is your divine eye as magical as Sister Ningguang's?"
Kamisato Ayato looked down at Conan, smiling: "Of course not, that's just a story. In fact, if Xia Xi hadn't helped convince Lord Raiden, Lord Raiden might have confiscated my and my sister's Eyes of God."
"Why do you want to confiscate the Eye of God? Isn't it just a decoration?" Conan asked.
Conan felt that he might have discovered some secrets about the Teyvat organization: the Eye of God is indeed not an ordinary decoration!
“Because it’s a destabilizing factor…”
Kamisato Ayato simply said this and stopped answering, allowing Conan to ask questions while she talked about other things.
Just as the people around Xia Xi were immersed in the story she was telling, without them noticing, two people had already walked up to the audience to explain the situation.
The two people were none other than Ningguang, the owner of the Qun Yu Pavilion mentioned by Xia Xi, and her secretary, Ganyu, who had just participated in the opening performance. They walked gracefully towards the audience and gestured to everyone with a smile.
Ningguang spoke first: "Dear friends, thank you for coming to this unique concert. Here, I would like to introduce to you the advanced technology we used in the competition venue this time - holographic projection." She paused for a moment to give everyone time to digest this information.
Then, Gan Yu added: "Yes, this technology can perfectly integrate virtual images with real scenes, giving everyone an unprecedented visual experience. What's more exciting is that the void terminal that our Qun Yu Pavilion is about to release also uses a simplified version of holographic projection and intelligent technology, which can provide you with convenient and efficient life services." Her voice was gentle and firm, making people look forward to this product.
Finally, Ningguang emphasized again: "If you are interested in these new technologies, you are welcome to go to Qun Yu Pavilion to order. We believe that these innovative technologies will change your lifestyle and bring you more convenience and fun. Thank you!"
After saying this, she and Ganyu bowed their heads to thank the audience, and then left the stage together amid sudden and warm applause from the audience.
