Chapter 35 The Excluded ‘Guest’
Chapter 35 The Excluded ‘Guest’
After receiving today's commission reward from Catherine, the three of them bought three cups of milk tea and drank it while walking.
After going up the stairs, she saw Qin standing at the door of the hotel talking to an unfriendly-looking woman.
"That's Captain Qin over there. Let's go say hello after they finish talking," Paimon said.
It's not polite to interrupt someone while they're talking.
After the three of them approached, they heard the woman say in an almost nonchalant manner: "...So, this is our attitude. If we cannot annihilate the rebellious dragon immediately, it is better to hand over the defense of Mondstadt to us." "The dragon disaster in Mondstadt can be dealt with, as long as we put that beast..."
Qin patiently listened to her nonsense, but the word 'beast' touched her bottom line.
She was a little angry: "'Beast'?" "
The diplomat who fooled the crowd said contemptuously: "Huh? What do you mean by the acting head of the delegation?"
Qin sighed. She really didn't want to have anything to do with this group of people, but they were Zhidong's diplomats: "...I hope your country's diplomats can adopt a more professional attitude."
She said angrily and intensified her tone: "You want to "deal with" one of the Guardians of the Four Winds in Mondstadt? I don't want anyone to say such crazy things in front of the Knight of Zephyr! "
Being able to make the gentle Captain Qin speak eloquently and fool the diplomats may have achieved what they wanted. She sneered with a sharp voice, which obviously didn't look that ugly, but was annoying: "Ha... also It’s not as crazy as you said, fine, that’s the end of today’s consultation!”
Her voice became disrespectful: "The result this time is a frank exchange of constructive opinions between both parties, right?" Hmm...I will record it truthfully. "After the woman finished speaking, she turned around and left.
Ying and Gan Lin could see it clearly, and they quickened their pace: "Captain Qin!" Just now they saw that Captain Qin's expression was very ugly. After getting to know each other for a while, Qin was not a person who would show anger on his face. .
"Who was that person just now... Captain Qin, you look so bad. Are you tired and sick like Noelle?" Paimon looked at Qin nervously.
Feeling their concern, Qin Rou's face softened, but the sadness in her eyes did not weaken her cheer up: "Ah, you are here. Thank you very much for your help during this time, and thank you very much for taking care of Noelle yesterday."
"The attack by the Wind Demon Dragon has come to an end, but the pressure from the mission has become too great to ignore." Qin lowered her eyes worriedly.
Paimon: "A mission? A diplomatic mission? From Liyue Port? Or from Daozuma City?"
"It's the Winter Country, a country that believes in the Ice God among the Seven Gods. Their mission has a special name - Fools, have you heard of it?" Qin looked at Paimon.
"Fools!" Paimon said in surprise: "It turns out it's them, they have indeed heard of it! But... they all have a bad reputation."
Qin nodded: "I think killing the Wind Demon Dragon is not a good idea, and the "Fools" led by the Ice God covet the power of the Wind God's followers... This fact itself is already very suspicious. "
Gan Lin silently added: It is the heart of a god who covets the Wind God.
Ying thought of the black-red water drop-shaped crystal she had obtained before: "Speaking of 'power', there is something I want to show the Knights." "
Qin looked around: "Huh? Okay, let's go to the Knights headquarters and have a chat." Then she used the corner of her eye to glance at the fools observing them in the hotel behind her.
"Don't discuss important matters in a place like this." Ying understood from what Paimon and Qin said that fools were not a good thing. Although she didn't understand the general reason, based on the principle of partiality, she glared The Fool guards at the door then followed the three of them and left.
Sora not far away: My sister is still so cute when she stares...
Ice Mage: Prince...are you okay?
[System prompt: Congratulations to the Chinese player Gan Lin for opening the second act of the prologue "For a Tomorrow Without Tears". The Chinese player opened the system mall and received a 10% discount coupon. The Chinese player gained a % increase in national physical fitness]
[System Mall? ! ! ]
This shocked the people of Blue Star once again. After all, it had been so long, and the National Transportation System had not notified in advance that there would be a system mall.
[Special reminder: The items in the system mall are purchased with raw stones. The system mall opened by everyone is different. I hope everyone can explore more and open the mall as soon as possible. 】
The familiar brown picture frame appeared on the Chinese mobile phones, indicating that the second act of their plot had begun.
Captain Qin walked in front and explained as he walked: "Mondstadt and Zhidong are equal. They are both one of the seven countries in this world. Mondstadt is an independent city-state and does not belong to any other country. Zhidong's "country" is also just a country." The government system was different when it was established, so the name is different. "
"But in terms of diplomacy, the "Fools" of the Winter Kingdom are probably the most powerful party on the continent..." Qin felt a little irritable when she thought of the Fools diplomats just now.
Paimon also complained: "Yeah! That's right, for example, that person who fooled everyone just now had a very annoying tone!"
It is well known that the Fools have a bad reputation on the continent of Teyvat. Even the Free City of Mondstadt is very disgusted with their arrival.
"Okay, now you can tell us what you want to show us." Qin pushed open the Knights' office. Lisa was looking at something by the bookshelf. When she turned around, she saw four people walking in.
"Hey, Qin, how could you secretly go and play with the little cuties behind my back? Where are those diplomats?"
Lisa knew that Qin would not run out to play with others while working and then come back. Seeing that Qin's face was still a little sullen and tired, the smart witch lady could also guess that those fools didn't say anything nice.
"No, no, Lisa, don't get me wrong." Paimon waved his hand to prove it for Qin: "We also wanted to find Captain Qin at the time, and we happened to see her confronting the Fools at the entrance of the hotel, so we just waited for her."
"And this is what we came here for..." Pamon took out the red crystal from his backpack.
"It's a crystal that contains some kind of power... But, Lisa, can you analyze its composition?" Qin held her hands and looked at the red crystals floating in front of her.
"Well, let me take a look... I can find some dirty impurities inside the crystal, but if I study it further..." Lisa looked at the red crystal in confusion.
"I'm sorry, we can't draw any useful conclusions yet. Give me some time and I'll go to the restricted book area to find some information."
Qin immediately asked Miss Witch: "Then Lisa, I will leave the subsequent research and investigation to you."
Lisa smiled and nodded: "Well, I will inform everyone if there is any progress, but don't expect much help from ancient documents. And... eh?"
