Genshin Impact, but the chat group

"Is there any evidence?"

"Have!"

When questioned by the head of discipline inspection, the vendor said he had evidence.

As everyone knows, in Sumeru City, everyone wears a Void Terminal, which has a recording function. The vendor's Void Terminal contained the footage he had just seen. After transmitting the recording to the Grand Disciplinary Officer's Void Terminal, the Grand Disciplinary Officer immediately saw the entire process of the gray-haired man killing someone and recognized who the gray-haired man was.

"Scribe Elhesen! You've been caught!"

Although he wasn't particularly familiar with Elhesen, Seno recognized him, so he immediately began a full-scale search with the disciplinary officers and soon found Elhesen at the entrance of the café.

"Senior Disciplinary Officer Seno, I have no idea what you're talking about."

Faced with the Grand Disciplinary Officer's accusations, Al-Hysen remained indifferent. He was no novice scholar who would tremble at the mere threat of the Disciplinary Officer.

"If you're trying to get information from me by intimidating me, I'm sorry, I'm not involved in anything."

After saying that, Elhesen prepared to walk around Seno and enter the coffee shop.

However, Seno showed no mercy, swinging his spear and striking Alheisen on the back of the head with the side of the spear tip. The purpose of striking with the flat side was not to kill Alheisen, but to knock him unconscious and then arrest him.

choke--

A bright green one-handed sword appeared and stood behind Elhesen's head, blocking the spear's strike.

"Disciplinary Officer, what do you mean by this?"

Maintaining his stance of holding the sword in one hand to block the spear, Elhesen turned to Seno and questioned him.

Seno looked at the green single-edged sword in Elhesen's hand. It was exactly the same as the content of the file that had just been transmitted from the vendor's void terminal. Not long ago, Elhesen had used a sword like this to kill another scholar.

"You should know best what I mean. The evidence is complete. Al-Hysen, you're under arrest. Surrender!"

"I reject!"

As Elhesen refused, he used his sword to deflect Seno's spear.

Taking advantage of his short stature, Sino bent down and approached Elhesen, grabbing his arm and trying to pin him to the ground. However, he found that he couldn't pull Elhesen's arm off.

After being captured, Elhesen swung his arm away from Seno and then kicked Seno with his leg.

"Hmph, I didn't expect you to be hiding such strength!"

Seno looked at Elhesen with a serious expression. He had a friend who, although also a scholar of the Order of the Church, was a ranger who always worked in the forest and had to deal with all kinds of fungi and even gilded brigades, so his combat ability was quite good, which was not a problem.

But how could a clerk of the Order of the Church, a guy who spends all his time in the library or the coffee shop, possess such strength? That's suspicious. In short, there's something wrong with this Elhesen!

"Why are you hiding your strength? What is your purpose in hiding in the Order of the Church? What are your hidden motives?"

Seno's three consecutive questions left Al-Hysen speechless.

"Disciplinary Officer, although I don't know what strange misunderstanding you have about me, I, Elhesen, just want to live a peaceful life."

"A peaceful life? Fine, come live with me in jail!"

Seno swung his spear and thrust it at Elhesen, who quickly dodged and retaliated with his sword.

Why? Why is the disciplinary official arresting me? What does he know that makes me his target? What happened in a place I don't know about?

While Seno and Elhesen were fighting, the disciplinary officers that Seno had previously sent out also rushed over after hearing the commotion.

Looking at the disciplinary officers gathering around him, Elhesen knew that if he didn't leave now, he would miss his chance.

He forcefully pushed Seno away, then jumped off the wall next to the cafe, rushed to the harbor, dove into the water, and disappeared instantly.

"Humph, you can't escape!"

Seno looked at the rippling water, snorted coldly, and then, with the discipline officer in tow, began searching along the shore.

Elhesen, who had dived into the water, surfaced again after a period of underwater swimming and climbed ashore. Fortunately, he swam in the opposite direction to the direction of the search by Sino, so he didn't have to worry about being caught.

After climbing ashore, Elhesen caught his breath and looked at the bustling city of Sumeru in the distance, his brows furrowing.

"What on earth happened that made the Grand Disciplinary Officer lead a group to surround and attack me?"

235. Eisen, the newcomer to the Gilded Troupe (Bonus chapter 4/4 in March)

Li Yue and Nasita witnessed the entire process of Grand Disciplinarian Seno leading his men to arrest Secretary Elhesen. They were watching the confrontation between the two from a high vantage point. Sumeru City was built on the Sacred Tree, making it a highly three-dimensional city, allowing for easy observation of the situation below from above.

"So, that's how we determine that someone isn't a member of the Dark Order."

Li Yue pointed to the Alhaisen that was floating up from the shore in the distance and explained to Naxida.

"This Elhesen did not yield to being arrested, which shows that he understands what would happen to him if he were arrested. Moreover, he believes that he is innocent, so he is unwilling to be arrested. If he were a member of the dark faction, he would choose to be arrested first and then wait for his superior to bail him out."

"Well, that's true."

Nasita nodded affirmatively.

"Moreover, this scribe named Elhesen is not only a scholar, but also the holder of the Grass Elemental Eye. Judging from his confrontation with the Grand Disciplinarian Seno just now, his strength is also quite good. He was able to fight the Disciplinarians who specialize in combat, and the leader of the Disciplinarians, the Grand Disciplinarian, to a standstill. His strength should be very good."

Nasita was quite fond of this man named Elhesen. He was a scholar, a grass elementalist, and had excellent abilities. This scribe might be able to help her manage Sumeru!

"Then came the Grand Disciplinary Officer, Seno."

Li Yue then pointed to Sino, who was leading his men to search along the shore.

"This senior disciplinary officer arrived at the scene immediately after the incident, and after investigating and collecting evidence, he immediately began to arrest people. He is a man of action. Although it is impossible to determine from his previous performance whether he is a member of the dark faction, after seeing Elhesen jump into the water to escape, he still personally led a team to search along the shore. Such a person is rarely found in the dark faction."

"So, he's not a member of the dark faction either?"

When Naxida asked, Li Yue shook her head.

"That's not certain. Very few people like that will fall into darkness, but that doesn't mean they won't. Some who fall into darkness may even be more self-disciplined, more ambitious and goal-oriented than those influenced by so-called justice. Compared to some so-called righteous partners who only shout slogans, those who fall into darkness and have clear goals may perform better."

"Therefore, we also need to test whether this person is a member of the dark faction."

Li Yue withdrew her finger from Senuo and crossed her arms.

"Do you understand, Hinamori?"

"Well, I see."

The reason Elhesen became a murderer was naturally because Li Yue directly demonstrated it with Kyoka Suigetsu. Although they are both called Kyoka Suigetsu, Li Yue's dream power has images. Unlike Aizen's Kyoka Suigetsu, which simply hypnotizes people and makes their five senses feel illusions, the Void Terminal has no five senses. It is just a machine.

Therefore, the illusions projected by Li Yue's dream powers can even deceive machines like the Void Terminal!

If Li Yue can do it, Naxida can certainly do it too.

"However, before testing Sino, we can first make contact with that Elhesen."

As Li Yue spoke, she jumped down in the direction Elhesen had gone, and Nasita, after seeing Li Yue jump down from the sacred tree, also jumped down.

The two landed on the ground one after the other and began walking in the direction Elhesen had left.

Elhesen's route was planned. He did not leave Sumeru City, but instead circled around, intending to return to Sumeru City from the northwest entrance.

As a scholar and a scribe, Al-Hysen had his own principles, which was to live a relaxed and peaceful life.

He owns property in Sumeru City and has savings, so it's unlikely he'll just run away.

Especially since he previously had a stable job as a clerk, he didn't want to lose all of that.

So he had to return to Sumeru City to investigate why the Grand Disciplinarian Seno had suddenly attacked him!

Everything that happens has a traceable pattern. Grand Disciplinarian Seno is not someone who randomly arrests people. As a clerk, Elhesen believes that his job has given him a lot of information, so he has a certain understanding of Grand Disciplinarian Seno. This former student of the Order of the Cavalry and now the head of the Disciplinary Committee will not arrest people randomly without evidence.

In other words, the other party's sudden decision to arrest him means they have evidence of his crimes!

When and what did I do that made the other party feel that I had violated the discipline of the Order of the Church, and thus they wanted to arrest me.

and...

El-Heinz pulled out his weapon and held it with one hand. He clearly remembered that it was after he pulled out his weapon that Seno suddenly identified him as a criminal and prepared to arrest him. What did this have to do with his weapon?

Especially the certain expression on Seno's face after seeing his weapon—could it be that his weapon is key evidence in the case? So, after seeing his weapon, Seno believes he is the criminal he is looking for?

It shouldn’t be!

Elhesen considered himself a weak civil official. Although he was a muscleman, he usually avoided taking action whenever possible, or rather, he rarely chose to fight and kept his strength hidden.

His weapons are rarely seen in public, so why would Seno use his weapons to accuse him of being guilty?

With these questions in mind, Elhesen ventured deeper into the forest.

Although his goal was to return to Sumeru City, he was being pursued by Seno, so he needed to conceal his appearance and change his clothes. Therefore, he needed to go into the forest to borrow a set of clothes from the Gilded Troupe there before returning to Sumeru City.

After a friendly exchange with a three-person gilded guild, Elhesen received a set of clothes and immediately went into a bush to change.

After changing his clothes and putting on an eye patch, the muscular Al-Hysen blended perfectly into the Gilded Brigade's environment. His muscular physique made him look just like a desert mercenary.

From now on, his name is Eisen, a mercenary of the Gilded Brigade!

With his new identity, Elhesen emerged from the forest and headed towards Sumeru City.

However, just as he was about to enter the city, he saw the two Inazuma people he had spotted on the street before.

One was wearing a black kimono with a white haori, and the other was only wearing a black kimono. This man and woman, one big and one small, blocked his way into the city.

"Excuse me, gentlemen, I need to get into the city."

Although these two people were mysterious and looked like troublesome, Elhesen tried his best to avoid trouble.

But Li Yue wouldn't give him a chance to escape. He pushed up his glasses and spoke softly.

"Oh? So you're going into the city to find out why you're wanted by the Grand Disciplinary Officer, Secretary Elhesen?"

236. Elheisen, you don't want Mount Sumeru to be destroyed either, do you?

"As expected, there's something wrong with you!"

Although his identity was exposed, Elhesen was not in a hurry. Instead, he became more determined to stick to his previous ideas.

These two Inatsume people who had been following him before were definitely suspicious!

He didn't rush to reveal his weapon, but instead cautiously sized up the two people in front of him.

"Who exactly are you people?"

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Aizen Sousuke."

Liu Yue pushed up her glasses.

"A man who seeks the throne of heaven."

The name didn't matter, but when Elhesen heard the last sentence, he immediately sensed trouble.

The Throne of Heaven? Elhesen didn't connect it to Sky Island or anything like that.
