Baroque picked up the wine on the table and poured a sip into the glass in front of him.

The wine from Chenxi Winery instantly gave off a fragrant aroma, which made the middle-aged businessman intoxicated.

"I see, that's why everyone is so abnormal today."

Yingsha nodded thoughtfully.

You must know that she just saw Ning Lu, who was not drinking, by the fountain. This guy is a drunken person. Today, he went shopping in Mondstadt very early in the morning. She thought this guy

He's changed his gender.

"And at this time of year, Mondstadt City will hold various activities, and the person who performs most outstandingly among them will be selected as the star of the Wind Flower Festival, and can join the leader of the Knights at the end of the festival.

Offer the wind flower of your choice to the God of Wind."

The wine glass was shaking in his hand. While looking at the crystal clear wine, Baroque introduced the Fenghua Festival in his memory to several people.

"That's why the Knights in the city were so busy this morning."

When passing through the square of Mondstadt just now, Paimon discovered a lot of devices that he had never seen before, presumably they were prepared for this festival.

"Instead of that, Mr. Baroque, let's talk about the treasure thief group and your batch of goods."

After the man in front of him drank all the wine in his glass, Bai Qiyun took the initiative to bring the topic back to the original point.

After all, this is their purpose today.

Hearing this, Baroque waved his hand.

"There's no rush, we have to wait for one more guest before that."

"guest?"

The sound of stomping footsteps sounded downstairs, and after the squeaking sound of high heels on the stairs, a tall blond woman wearing a ladies' suit walked into the sight of several people.

"Captain Qin?"

The person who came was unexpectedly the acting leader of the Knights of the West Wind, Jean Gunnhild.

"Knight of honor, Mr. Bai."

The woman nodded towards the two guests who had come from afar and sat next to them.

Facing the curious looks of several people, Qin slowly spoke.

"Actually, our knights have already investigated Mr. Baroque's matter to some extent. It's just because of the identity issue. Do you have any way to continue the investigation?"

"Identity issue?"

Could it be another cross-border pursuit?

Bai Qiyun touched his chin, and Yandora beside him also imitated the same pattern.

"We actually found a few missing items of the previously stolen goods near the border. After collecting them, we asked Mr. Baroque to confirm that they were indeed his goods, so we suspect that the goods returned to Mongolia from Liyue.

Within Germany.”

"In Mondstadt? Isn't it back under the control of the Knights? Isn't this a good thing?"

Paimon's slightly innocent tone made Qin's originally depressed mood a little happier.

Admittedly, this is true, but now there are some changes.

"Actually, this incident is related to another incident that happened in Mondstadt City recently, as you know, the Wind Flower Festival."

Several people followed Qin's gaze and looked out the door on the second floor from the balcony, where members of the Knights were decorating the city under the leadership of Kaia.

After a while, Qin looked away.

"As the first major festival after the dragon disaster, this time the Knights intend to show other countries that Mondstadt has stabilized the situation again, so this time the Wind Flower Festival is also rare in history on a large scale."

As the leader of the Knights, Qin naturally knows the specific arrangements for this time.

"Not only are there activities related to the Wind Flower Festival in Mondstadt, this time we have also opened up tour qualifications in other territories to tourists from foreign countries. Some foreign chambers of commerce that have applied can conduct transactions at designated locations during the event.

Or build amusement rides.”

That's right, this time the Wind Flower Festival is spread all over Mondstadt, and tourists can be seen basically except for a few areas where monsters are infested.

"The clues we were looking for happened to be one of the amusement facilities built by the foreign chamber of commerce. A facility called the Paradise Tower was recently built on the mountains of Mingguan Gorge. We suspect that the stolen goods have been transferred to

There."

Mingguan Gorge?

Bai Qiyun quickly took out the map and checked the corresponding location.

Mingguan Gorge is a high-rise site, located between Mondstadt and the Wind Dragon Ruins, facing Mondstadt across the Cider Lake.

After summarizing the situation, Qin's originally elegant face also became slightly embarrassed.

"In order to take care of the feelings of the businessmen, we cannot just go in and send people to search at will. If it really has nothing to do with this case, then I am afraid that the little trust that Mond has just restored will be lost again."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After hearing Qin’s concerns, several people were silent.

Sure enough, as the ruler of a country, she has far more thoughts and concerns than ordinary people.

"So you want us to intervene in this matter as unofficial members?"

After hearing this, Bai Qiyun basically understood the purpose of the other party's visit.

This is because they hope that they can find out the conclusive clues first, and then the authorities will take action.

In this way, the teacher will be famous and the result will not lead to big mistakes.

"Please, you two."

Qin lowered her head to the two of them and asked solemnly.

Seeing this, the two of them could only agree to this seemingly troublesome request.

Watching the female knight's figure fading away, Paimon let out a sigh of relief.

"I am indeed very tired, Mr. Acting Captain."

Compared with Maura, who was always thinking about food and shelter, Qin obviously had a lot more things to think about.

"There's nothing we can do about it."

The blond girl took the juice at hand and took a few sips, then looked at the boy beside her.

"So, are we leaving now?"

Hearing this, Bai Qiyun simply shook his head.

"No, we haven't figured out the operating mechanism of the Wind Flower Festival yet, so we can't alert the enemy."

"So what do we do now?"

"Of course, we need to understand the process of the Fenghua Festival. Only by knowing ourselves and our enemies can we win every battle."

The young man's eyes fell on the facilities in the city, thinking about his future itinerary.

Outside the city, Mona, who left Mondstadt early in the morning, looked at the books she had opened in her hands, her face livid.

————

After saying goodbye to Baroque, Bai Qiyun and Ying returned to their temporary residence to discuss their next trip.

But Mona, who was lying in the living room with a lifeless look on her face, made the two stop their desire to talk.

"Hey, what's wrong with you?"

Walking to the girl's side, Bai Qiyun pulled her shoulder and pointed her face towards him.

Mona's mouth opened twice but no sound came out. Her eyes were lifeless, like a dead fish that had landed on the shore.

She was still holding a book that came from somewhere tightly in her hand, for fear of losing it.

"It seems that before we can complete the commission from Mr. Baroque and Captain Qin, we must first find out what happened to the lovely Miss Mona."

Bai Qiyun knelt down and moved closer to the girl.

His ear was pointed at Mona's mouth, and the hot breath from the other person's breath blew against his ear, tickling him.

You can vaguely hear the sound of the girl's lips opening and closing, as if she is saying something.

Seeing this, Bai Qiyun calmed down and listened carefully to Mona's soliloquy.

"I was wrong, I was wrong from the beginning. If I hadn't promised the old lady to get her things back, I wouldn't have met the little girl, and I wouldn't have had to see the contents of the diary..."

Although the voice was small, Bai Qiyun roughly understood what happened.

It was what Mona said before that she wanted to help the master get something, but she accidentally opened the contents.

It doesn't sound like a big deal, why is this happening?

"What do you know!"

Before Bai Qiyun could leave, the girl made an almost roaring sound in his ear, which was deafening.

"Hiss~"

Bai Qiyun quickly covered his ears and slipped away from her.
