Genshin Impact, the spear remains.

A man with dark blue hair wearing an eye patch walked over from the edge of the square.

Although his words didn't explicitly point to anything, they always seemed to carry a deeper meaning.

"Captain Kaeya!"

Amber was quite excited to see the newcomer. Judging from the way he was addressed, this man should also be a member of the Knights of Favonius, and of a high rank.

Kaeya waved to Amber, indicating that she didn't need to.

Amber realized that he didn't know anyone present, so he took the initiative to introduce them.

"This is our Knights of Favonius cavalry captain, Kaeya."

The rabbit girl turned to look at Ying and Bai Qiyun, then introduced them to Kaeya: "These two are Ying, a traveler from afar, and Bai Qiyun, a traveler from Liyue."

Paimon, who had been left behind by Amber, quickly joined in, "Me too, I'm Paimon!"

"Yes, yes, and little Paimon too, he's a travel companion who's traveling with this traveler from afar."

Ying nodded to Kaiya. "Hello, my name is Ying."

"Hmm... a traveler from afar."

Clearly, Kaiya wasn't satisfied with this vague information, but he just smiled and didn't show it.

After responding, he glanced at Bai Qiyun, who was standing to the side.

"Then this must be the traveler from Liyue. Although I'm a little sorry for encountering the dragon scourge, I still hope you have a happy time in Mondstadt."

The seemingly kind Captain Kaia made Bai Qiyun feel like he was facing a smiling tiger.

"Ah, I really like the atmosphere of Mondstadt."

After exchanging a few flattering words with Kaiya, Bai Qiyun saw Goethe emerge from the place where he had disappeared earlier.

"Sorry everyone, I have something to do. Let's talk again next time."

The boy quickly chased after the landlord.

"He really is an impatient person."

Seeing that the troublesome person had disappeared, Kaeya extended an invitation to the person in charge of this event.

"Miss traveler, would you mind coming with us to the Knights' headquarters?"

Ying suddenly became somewhat stiff.

The Knights, those are law enforcers, could it be that I've done something wrong?

When Kaiya saw Ying's expression, he quickly explained.

"No, don't overthink it. It's our acting team leader who wants to see you."

"Acting leader?"

I heard her mention this on the way to Mondstadt with Amber.

Since the original captain led most of the Knights of Favonius on an expedition, the former vice-captain who stayed behind became the acting captain during this period.

I heard she is an independent and strong woman.

After exchanging a glance, Ying and Paimon made a decision.

"it is good."

After all, finding one's brother in this world requires the help of various forces; otherwise, it would take forever to find him by relying solely on oneself.

"Oh, right, Amber, you should come along too."

"Captain Kaeya, stop saying things that sound like you're just filling in the numbers!"

Even rabbits get angry.

"Does it sound like... really?"

"Hello!"

The group set off from the square in a grand procession towards the Knights' headquarters.

Meanwhile, Bai Qiyun, who had been chasing after Goethe, finally finished the formalities.

Starting today, he will no longer have to sleep on the grass!

Unlike Liyue, Mondstadt's wilderness is not like Liyue, where there are many inns. Mondstadt's wilderness is just bare grass and Hilichurls.

A few days ago, I couldn't even find a place to sleep.

"Excuse me, sir, I saw you walk that way earlier. Do you live there?"

After carefully putting away the paper contract, Bai Qiyun casually asked the question.

Goethe, with his gray hair, looked in the direction he was pointing.

"Oh, you mean that? Well, you could say I live there."

"Does it count?"

Goethe bent over, squinted, and chuckled twice in a somewhat hoarse voice.

"Actually, both the properties there and here belong to me."

"All...all of them?!"

Hey, that building looks really expensive, is it true?

Bai Qiyun was startled by the aura of the wealthy man. Although he had seen wealthy people before, this was the first time he had seen one blend into the crowd so easily.

Goethe turned around with a smug look on his face; he liked people who were naive and unsophisticated.

"Actually, if you had ever come to Mondstadt and wanted to stay for a short period of time, my family's 'Goethe Hotel' would definitely have been your first choice."

Goethe pointed to the luxuriously decorated, large building with a two-story protruding balcony for people to rest.

But his tone changed, and he seemed somewhat embarrassed.

"However, recently, the delegation from the Kingdom of Winter, the Fools, booked the entire hotel, so you can't check in now even if you want to."

Winter's Kingdom?

Having obtained the information he wanted, Bai Qiyun continued speaking, following Goethe's lead.

"Isn't that a good thing? If we can book the entire hotel, we'll definitely make a lot of money."

Let alone such a large hotel, even if his restaurant were booked for a whole day, the other party's expenses would definitely be considerable.

"Does it make money? It does make a lot of money, but..."

Thinking of the recent rumors circulating in the city, Goethe sighed.

"only?"

The old man felt that telling Bai Qiyun wasn't a big deal, since almost everyone in the city already knew about it.

He turned his stiff neck and looked around, and when he found that none of the Fools were behind him, he deliberately lowered his voice.

"Actually, there are rumors that the delegation from the Kingdom of Winterfell recently had a very unpleasant encounter with our Knights of Favonius in Mondstadt, and they almost came to blows. Before, that guy called 'Doctor' caused a great deal of panic in the city when he came, and now another one called 'Lady' has arrived. Sigh, these are troubled times."

Bai Qiyun was a little confused. What was this "Doctor" and "Ms."? Although the naming methods of different countries are very different, this was the first time he had ever heard of names like these.

Goethe was also taken aback when he saw Bai Qiyun looking a little dazed, but after a moment's thought, he knew what Bai Qiyun was thinking.

"Don't take it too seriously. Those 'Doctor' and 'Ms.' titles are more like nicknames. To them, they seem to be titles for some kind of executive."

"Executive?"

I heard a word I'd never heard before.

Although his family had lived in Liyue Harbor for generations and run a restaurant, and thus had some connections, the presence of the Geo Archon meant that the arrogant and domineering guys from Winterfell were much less active in Liyue Harbor than they were in Mondstadt.

Naturally, he wasn't as well-informed about the Fatui as Mondstadt.

Of course, that was before. Now that the other party has piqued his curiosity, he will naturally pay more attention in the future.

If all else fails, you can ask a rich woman who often comes over for free meals.

"That was pretty awful."

Bai Qiyun chuckled, indicating that he didn't want to delve any further.

Goethe didn't want to continue, after all, walls have ears, and the Fools were his guests. If someone overheard and relayed the message back, it would be quite awkward when they met.

After saying goodbye to the landlord, Bai Qiyun took the key, opened the room, and did a quick cleaning.

However, it's clear that the room is well-maintained; otherwise, if, as the landlord said, no one had lived there for a long time, there would definitely be a thick layer of dust.

But it's only been like this for two or three days since I took care of it.

It's possible that Mr. Goethe hired someone to clean the room regularly.

The person cleaning the room was probably a bit busy, because they left some trash on the bed sheet in such an obvious spot.

Bai Qiyun approached the bedside, picked up the conspicuous object, and examined it carefully.

"This is... a rose?"

The red petals were being kneaded back and forth in the boy's hands, the juice still fresh, a testament to the fact that someone had been there just a few days ago.

Judging from the signs that no one had lived in the room, the rose petal was likely left behind carelessly by the cleaning staff.

However, it's nothing serious; it's just a single petal.

Bai Qiyun glanced at it a few times before throwing it into the trash can and not thinking about it anymore.

The sky was gradually turning yellow.

Before we knew it, it was already evening.

Only at this moment could Bai Qiyun realize that all those things had happened in one afternoon.

First, they encountered Luminous and Paimon in the forest, then they were chased by the Guardians of the Ruins, and then they came to Mondstadt and asked around, where they encountered the Dragon Plague.

These things were really overwhelming him.

One afternoon was more thrilling and exciting than the previous ten years of his life.

"Your Highness, please never let me encounter such things again. I am just an ordinary person."

After bowing a few times to the radish carved with the shape of a rock dragon, which he had made earlier to practice his knife skills, Bai Qiyun walked out of the house.

"Next... let's go to the Deer Hunters."
