Chapter 290 Quill Pen
After returning to Mondstadt today, in addition to accepting and completing the daily mission for the first time, Ying and Paimon also witnessed the Fatui envoy putting pressure on Jean, the acting leader of the Knights.
And Ying also heard of the name of the Fatui, which has a not-so-good reputation in Teyvat.
After reporting to Qin about the situation of the Four Winds Guardian Temple, Ying showed the Knights of Favonius the red teardrop-shaped crystals they had picked up earlier.
After Lisa's attempts, she discovered that the power of this crystal was mutually exclusive with the Eye of God, so the best candidate to save her was still Ying, who did not have the Eye of God.
And afterwards, because Ying helped clean up the temple guarded by the four winds and restored the flow of elements in Mondstadt to normal, Qin expressed her gratitude and specially granted Ying the title of Honorary Knight of the Knights of Favonius.
After that, Ying and Paimon remembered his reminder when they separated from Wendy in order to return the cat to the Cat's Tail Tavern.
The two left Mondstadt again and came to the eye-catching big tree where the wind was rising.
From Wendy, they learned that even if the Knights or the Fatui did not attack, Tevarin would lose his vitality rapidly in anger until he died.
In addition, they also learned the real reason for Tevarin's anger. It was not because he was forgotten by the people of Mond and was no longer worshipped, nor was it because he was woken up by someone who fell from the sky, but the corrosion of the curse of the abyss.
After Wendy's explanation, Ying and Paimon finally decided to help him and accompany him to get the "Sky Harp" used by the legendary God of Wind.
"Hey, she's a kind-hearted traveler after all. It's worth my waiting for her on the roof for so long~"
After agreeing with Ying to take action on time tonight, Wendy chuckled in her heart.
……
"Kaia, can you confirm that your information is true? You know, this twelfth seat has never appeared in any public occasion in Winter..."
At the headquarters of the Knights of Favonius, Jean asked Kaeya with a frown.
"Yeah, and he doesn't look like a bad guy, it's just...how should I put it, his train of thought is a bit weird, but very interesting."
Amber nodded. She was the first person to meet the other person yesterday.
"Before that, I have to confirm one thing. Captain Qin, did you lose a feather pen and the bow you wore in your hair a few months ago?"
Kaiya did not answer directly to confirm the answer, but suddenly asked Qin.
"A quill and a bow... I did lose a pen about half a year ago, but it wasn't anything important. I guess someone took it away in a hurry and didn't pay much attention."
"As for the bow, I thought it fell off accidentally."
Qin recalled for a while and explained. At the end, she subconsciously raised her hand to touch the short ponytail at the back of her head, on which there was a black bow.
But it is more like a hair rope tied into a bow than a bow. It needs to be taken directly from the hair without untying it to be a bow.
"That's right. I met him at the Cat's Tail Tavern half a year ago. I paid more attention to him because he was a stranger. As a result, I invited him for a drink and got some incredible information out of him."
Kaia nodded affirmatively.
His words also aroused the interest of the three ladies in the office, who looked at him and waited for his follow-up.
"It turned out that he was being tested by the Ice Queen. After getting drunk, he asked me directly what the most important thing for the leader of the Knights was."
Kaia paused here, and Amber and Lisa subconsciously looked at Qin.
Qin also subconsciously thought about what was the most important thing to her...
"Of course I won't tell him the truth, so I told him that the most important things about you are the quill you use to write letters and the bow in your hair. The former is left by your mother, and the latter is left by your father."
"Ahem, let me make it clear first, Captain Qin, please don't be angry with me."
Kaiya couldn't help but cough lightly to remind Qin when he finished speaking.
Qin would not get angry about such things, but considering what Kaiya said before and after, she suddenly felt terrified.
"You mean... he sneaked into the Knights' Order and stole the quill I was using without anyone in the Order noticing, and took off the bow on my head when I wasn't paying attention?"
When Qin said this, she suddenly felt a chill on her back.
If the other party could take off the bow behind her head, he could probably take off her head as well...
"It's very possible, but he was so easy to talk to, and I didn't feel the difference between him and ordinary people. In addition, he left Mond the next day, so for a long time I thought he was just bragging after drinking."
Kaiya continued to explain that it was only after he saw Liu Bai again yesterday that he remembered meeting him half a year ago.
"This, this gives me goosebumps..."
Amber subconsciously raised her hand to cover the bunny ear headdress on her head.
"Don't worry too much. It's more likely that you could take a pen when no one is in the office and take the hair tie when Jean takes it off in the shower."
"Although he is the executive officer of the Fatui, he is only the last one after all."
Lisa expressed her opinion after thinking for a while.
"But allowing them to operate in the city is always an unstable factor, and the Fatui delegation has become more aggressive under the instructions of that lady..."
Qin started to have a headache.
Although Liu Bai did not show any hostility, at this stage when the Fatui delegation was constantly exerting pressure, he had to put all the Fatui on the opposite side of the Knights.
But we can only keep an eye on them and can't do anything to them.
To put it bluntly, after the Grand Master's expedition, the power within Mondstadt is now too small to defeat the Fatui, otherwise they would not be bold enough to propose taking over the defense of Mondstadt.
"Captain Qin, let me help you keep an eye on him."
Amber looked at Qin's headache and suddenly volunteered to make a suggestion.
"No, it's too dangerous..."
"It's okay. He has a good relationship with Krewei, and so do I. As long as I bring Krewei with me to keep an eye on him, it will be fine."
Jean tried to dismiss Amber's suggestion, but Amber interrupted her to explain.
"Krevy...is that the girl?"
Klevi had been to the Knights Templar headquarters several times, sometimes to the library and sometimes to play with Klee, so Jean had an impression of her.
"Yes, I know where she lives. I will go find her tomorrow."
Amber nodded and said.
In order to prevent Klevi from revealing her identity as a Fatui, Alechino bought her a house in Mondstadt so that she could stay away from the Fatui in Mondstadt.
Just as Amber said this, on the beach east of Falling Star Valley, Ying and Paimon were watching the sunrise.
"Hehe, you want to follow me with this little strength."
After blowing up the debt handler who had been secretly following him to the ground, Krevy weighed the bomb in his hand that he had asked for from Klee before, and snorted with satisfaction.
This man had the evil eye, so Clavi didn't have to worry about his safety. She put away the bomb in her hand and walked aside.
Then Krevy dragged the wooden boat hidden nearby to the seashore, took out the oars and rowed away.
After an unknown amount of time, the debt collector who was lying on the ground coughed a few times and woke up.
"This little girl is really merciless..."
