An hour later, the sky gradually dimmed.
Night had already begun to fall.
At this moment, Yanfei also finished reading the manga.
"This was just too fun… If only I had a Four-Dimensional Pocket of my own."
Her face still carried that lingering excitement.
She found Doraemon truly magical.
Such a tiny pocket, yet it could produce countless bizarre and wondrous gadgets.
Take the Puppet Flower, for instance—it could reveal whether someone was lying!
For ordinary people, maybe that wasn't very useful.
But she was a legal advisor!
For her, this tool was absolutely invaluable.
With it, no one could get away with lying during a dispute, and efficiency would skyrocket.
Yet as she thought back on the events of today, Yanfei's expression gradually grew solemn.
This Manga shop undeniably held a mysterious power.
The rewards it gave out were endless and miraculous.
Like her friend Eula's Chain Sword,
which greatly boosted combat power.
Or the rejuvenating medicine that could make one young again,
and even Sun Wukong's hairs that could transform into anything.
Each reward was something extraordinary.
And now, this "Doraemon"…
The gadgets in it were beyond anything she could imagine—
they could even reshape creation itself!
Just imagining the possibilities terrified her.
What if someone actually obtained the Time Machine?
If they traveled to the past or future and meddled with events,
everything in the present could change!
Yanfei didn't dare think further.
"No… this is too important. I must report it to Lady Keqing and Lady Ningguang immediately!
But it's too late now, and the timing isn't right. Tomorrow morning I'll return and inform them."
Her decision made, Yanfei was suddenly interrupted by the shop's familiar chime:
[Customer Yanfei has finished reading Doraemon and received the reward — Bamboo-Copter.]
[Bamboo-Copter: Place it on your head, and with a thought, you can fly.]
[Note: Flight speed of 80 km/h, continuous flight up to 8 hours. When power is depleted, rest for one day to recharge.]
"Ah, the Bamboo-Copter! Now that's one of the most iconic Doraemon gadgets."
Han Feng sighed with a smile.
In the manga, the Bamboo-Copter—just like the Anywhere Door—was one of the most frequently used tools.
Truly a household essential for travel.
Buzz—
A dazzling light fell from above, enveloping Yanfei.
But she wasn't startled this time; she'd seen it enough already.
Instead, her eyes held curiosity.
Would it be the Puppet Flower?
The Anywhere Door?
Or something else entirely?
The light faded.
A small yellow propeller appeared in her hand.
"This is… the Bamboo-Copter!"
Yanfei's face lit up with joy.
Having read the manga, she knew exactly how useful this gadget was.
Just place it on your head, and you could soar freely through the skies!
"Yes, that's right."
Han Feng nodded, then added casually:
"With it, you can fly at 80 km/h for up to 8 hours. Once it runs out of power, it only needs a day's rest to recover."
"So fast?!"
Yanfei's eyes widened.
In the manga, she had only paid attention to what it could do, not how fast.
To think it was that quick, and for that long!
And with a one-day recharge? Practically limitless use.
If she'd had this earlier, traveling with Xiangling wouldn't have been so exhausting.
"Perfect. I can use it on my return trip tomorrow."
Yanfei was thrilled.
If all went well, she could leave in the morning and still return the same day—
and maybe even squeeze in another manga!
"Wow, Yanfei, your reward is amazing!"
Though Xiangling was immersed in Cooking Master Boy, she had noticed the little yellow gadget.
After Han Feng's explanation, she was practically starry-eyed.
With this, you could go anywhere you wanted.
"If only I had one too. Then finding ingredients wouldn't be such hard work…"
Xiangling said enviously.
Eula's expression wasn't much different.
But the comics weren't going anywhere—she could always come tomorrow.
Her thoughts turned instead to her close friend, Amber.
Amber had a staff that could fly, sure,
but it required shouting out ridiculous chuunibyou incantations each time.
Not exactly convenient.
She almost felt lucky Amber hadn't come today.
If she saw the Bamboo-Copter, her heart would probably break.
"Hehe, looks like my luck's pretty good."
Yanfei couldn't hide her satisfaction.
With a thought, she placed the Bamboo-Copter on her head.
The little propeller spun rapidly—
and to everyone's astonishment, Yanfei's feet left the floor, lifting her gently into the air!
"She's actually flying?!"
Noelle was stunned.
So it really worked.
No wonder the boss said these rewards were one-of-a-kind.
"Tomorrow, I'm definitely trying for one myself."
Noelle silently resolved.
"I'll take it outside."
Grinning, Yanfei zipped out of the shop and rose into Mondstadt's night sky.
From above, the city spread out before her eyes.
"Flying freely like this… it feels amazing!"
She was instantly in love with the sensation.
Once she returned to Liyue, she couldn't wait to try soaring above that land too.
After circling for a while, she returned to the shop.
"Well? How was it?!"
Eula asked curiously.
"Absolutely delightful! Want to try?"
Yanfei offered her the Bamboo-Copter.
This gadget wasn't bound to its owner—anyone could use it.
"Then I will. I'd like to see how it compares with my Wind Glider."
Eula accepted eagerly.
Meanwhile, Yanfei turned to the counter.
"Boss Han, why doesn't Doraemon have an ending?"
She had wondered about it ever since finishing the book.
A story without a conclusion… felt incomplete, somehow.
But Han Feng only smiled faintly.
Truth was, Doraemon wasn't the only one.
Even Detective Conan was unfinished.
All he had were the latest chapters from his past life.
Hence the eternal "forever-a-grade-schooler" joke.
Naturally, he couldn't just reveal the truth.
Instead, his lips curved into a mischievous grin.
"Actually… it does have an ending.
But I doubt you'd be able to accept it."
"Huh? What ending?"
Yanfei perked up immediately.
Noelle also leaned in, equally curious.
Han Feng cleared his throat dramatically.
"Ahem. The true ending is this—
Nobita is actually a mentally ill patient.
In reality, there's no Doraemon, no gadgets, nothing.
Everything was just his imagination."
