It was not the time to relax yet, she focused her attention on Tartaglia.

"Who are you? Why did the Fatui come to Mingyun Town?"

Tartaglia did not hide her original purpose: "I heard that someone was smuggling Yebo Stone and using it to do some shameful things, so I wanted to come and see who was so bold."

"Would the fools be so kind?"

Keqing didn't believe Tartaglia's nonsense at all.

In her opinion, the Fatui could not have any good intentions.

"It's true... Why is it so hard to be a good person? Oh, let's go."

Seeing that the Abyss Mage and the Slime had been dealt with, Tartaglia realized there was no point in staying here. The main reason he came out was because of a deal he had just made in the afternoon.

She happened to meet an acquaintance - it was Qin An in Keqing's arms.

Of course, I guess the other party doesn’t know me yet, because I only know of his existence through intelligence.

Now is not a good time to get to know each other, and that Yuhengxing is really unfriendly.

What makes Tartaglia feel interesting is that it turns out that Yuhengxing is so interesting in private?

Only after seeing the Fatui leave did Keqing finally let down her guard.

"Qin An, are you really okay?"

Then Keqing turned her attention to Qin An, and her little hands touched his body as if to check for any wounds.

"Ahem..." Qin An turned his body to the side and explained, "It's okay. Didn't I tell you that I'm stronger and have thicker fur and flesh?"

"But that's a Thunder Slime! And it's a mutated one."

The slime just now was not an ordinary slime. The rich elemental power alone surprised Keqing. She also didn't understand why such a mutated slime existed.

"Ahem, I'm really fine."

Qin An didn't dare to enjoy the care of her good brother anymore. Her little hands were very soft. What if she made a fool of herself by checking further?

"By the way, are those people okay?"

In order to share his brother's attention, Qin An took the initiative to mention work matters.

really.

As soon as work is mentioned, Keqing immediately shifts her attention.

"I gonna go see."

Keqing went over to check on the conditions of a few people and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"They are just unconscious, their lives are not in danger. I will notify the Qianyan Army to check this place thoroughly later."

Keqing said this habitually, then realized that this was not the General Affairs Department, and she began to speak in Yuheng Star's tone again.

He tried to change the subject again: "Qin An, shall I take you to Bubulu to have a look?"

It wasn't just a simple change of subject, Keqing was indeed still worried about Qin An's health.

Qin An knew his own body very well. He knew that his good brother meant well, but he really didn't want to go to Bubulu just for such a small matter. He heard that the medicine there was very bitter, and Qin An didn't want to suffer for no reason.

"Really?"

Keqing expressed doubt about what Qin An said. If she were to endure that kind of attack, she would be seriously injured.

"real!"

Qin An stood up swiftly and jumped up and down to show that he was not injured.

……

Then the atmosphere became awkward.

Keqing believed that Qin An was fine, but the question was, was he too healthy?

Qin An looked like he didn't seem to be like the man who had been lying in her arms for a long time without moving... In other words, he was fine from the beginning.

Keqing is not just a simple little girl. On the contrary, as the Jade Star, she is responsible for all matters in Liyue, and she is so meticulous that she cannot be careless.

I figured out the key point immediately.

In other words—Keqing blushed a little.

I didn't feel anything much when I was nervous and worried just now.

Thinking back on it now, it feels like there are ants crawling in my chest!

But she was an innocent girl, and that feeling was like Qin An's cheek was pressing tightly against his chest.

Bang bang bang!

Her heartbeat quickened and her cheeks became hot, and Keqing didn't know how to start talking.

Qin An took a look at his brother's face.

I was shocked.

Oh no.

Based on my understanding of my good brother, she is blushing now. I guess she must be very conflicted in her heart? She won't kill him in anger, right?

I really didn't mean to do that just now. I was forced to enjoy it.

For a moment, Qin An couldn't think of a suitable excuse to break the awkwardness. If he really annoyed her... would he get beaten?

If Keqing knew that Qin An still thought of her as violent, she might really fulfill his wish and beat him up.

But at this moment, she felt more shy.

"Let me take you home first."

In the end, it was Keqing who took the initiative to speak.

"it is good."

Qin An also agreed. He had been working on a good investigation, but ended up with such an embarrassing situation. He did not expect this to happen.

On the way back, Qin An once again proved his vitality.

When Keqing breathed a sigh of relief, her expression became a little grim again.

The anxious look I had just now was very different from my usual self... I wonder if Qin An was laughing at me in his heart.

After returning to Qin An’s residence.

Qin An opened the door and turned around to see the girl standing there, her beautiful eyes reflecting star-like light.

The dark clouds in the sky had long since dispersed, and I don’t know when the moonlight became so obvious.

There was some dust on the girl's cheeks, and her gorgeous dress and exquisite stockings were dirty.

Of course the main culprit is Qin An, who probably got there by himself.

"Would you like a cup of tea?"

Qin An hesitated for a moment but still invited him, mainly because he felt it would be impolite to ask the other person to go back directly.

Keqing has regained her former spirit, and even the ashes on her face cannot hide her heroic spirit.

He shook his head gently and said with a smile: "No, you should go to bed early. I will go and inform Qianyanjun that he will also go home."

Keqing is very smart. After getting along with Qin An, she knows how to answer this kind of question.

If I go back to work, given his personality, he will definitely stop me, right?

Maybe he will catch up again.

In his eyes, he always has to be careful about getting too tired.

"Well, go to bed early."

Qin An did not forget to give instructions when closing the door.

"Ah."

Keqing nodded slightly and watched Qin An close the door.

She slowly left after Qin An closed the door, looking at the bright moon in the sky, and whispered, "It's not time to rest yet."

After saying that, he went to the General Affairs Department.

Liyue Harbor seemed a bit uneasy tonight. Some Thousand Rocks soldiers were awakened and immediately began to carry out their missions.

Mingyun Town was also searched temporarily.

Chapter 27: Don’t you know she is one of the Seven Stars of Liyue?

"How's it going?"

In Mingyun Town, Keqing commanded the Qianyan Army to begin a temporary search of the entire mine.

While checking, Ningguang appeared and asked.

"Why are you here?"

Seeing Ningguang appear late at night, Keqing looked a little surprised.

Ever since she took the initiative to exchange opinions with Ningguang, the hostility between the two disappeared.

"I heard there was quite a commotion here. It seems you are in trouble?"

Ningguang looked at Keqing and asked.

The Yuhengxing in front of him was slightly different from his usual heroic appearance. There was dust on his pretty face, and his gorgeous clothes looked a little dirty. It seemed that he had been through a tough battle.

"I happened to encounter the Abyss Mage performing some strange rituals. I had a bad feeling and stopped them."

"You're not hurt, are you?"

Ningguang asked worriedly.

Keqing shook her head: "No, I just encountered some minor troubles, and I solved them smoothly."

Then Keqing recounted the previous details.

"We need to carefully interrogate those people about the source of the Night Stone. It is very likely that smuggling is involved. We also need to pay attention to the mutation of the Abyss Mages. I feel that what they are doing will have a bad impact on Liyue."

Finally, Keqing paused and added, "The Fatui have also appeared in Mingyun Town. I suspect they may know some details. I will send someone to keep a close eye on them."
