Star Train: Go crazy, all of you go crazy!

soon.

After everyone finished breakfast and accepted their tasks, they went about their own business.

Hoshino, March 7th, and others waited until Kurumi, Kiana, and Mei arrived at the train before setting off, and then took Hook and Clara along the way to Mondstadt.

Jade, Topaz, and Gold went to their rented carriages, turned on the projector, and prepared to watch the auction.

The auction was held on a jade warship, with professional auctioneers in charge, who only needed to monitor the event online.

.............

A dozen minutes later.

Inside Mondstadt.

Hoshino, Kurumi, and Kiana appeared inside the Knights' headquarters building through a portal.

As soon as they came out, they saw Kaeya.

Kaiya saw the group waving and greeting them.

"Hey everyone, long time no see! Where have you been having a good time these past few days?"

The star saw Kaeya.

"Long time no see, Kaiya. I haven't been out having fun anywhere. I've just been wandering around aimlessly, going here and there."

"Since you're here, I have a question for you. How do we get to the tavern that Sosia runs? We need to talk to her."

Upon hearing this, Kaiya said...

"You're going to find Sosia? Her tavern is just below our knightly order; it's just down one flight of stairs."

I'm a little curious about March 7th.

"Huh? It's right next to your Knights Order? Isn't that a bad location?"

"After all, this is practically a police station, right? Opening a tavern next to a police station just feels really awkward."

Upon hearing this, Kaiya chuckled and replied.

"What's the big deal? Mondstadt is a free country. As long as Sosia abides by Mondstadt's laws, we won't interfere with her."

Besides, she suggested this location herself, saying it would be convenient for Klee to play there.

And you know what? Since Sosia came to Mondstadt, Klee has been much better behaved lately. She goes to see Sosia every day to play and hasn't gone out to fish for fish anymore.

"That's rare. There haven't been any documents demanding compensation for Klee's fried fish on Captain Qin's desk these past few days."

March 7th nodded upon hearing this.

"By the way, where's Ying? What's she been up to lately? She hasn't come to visit us at all."

Upon hearing this, Kaiya said...

"You mean Ying? She left yesterday, saying she was going to Liyue to participate in the Summoning Ceremony."

At this point, we're probably already within Liyue territory.

Hu Tao stroked his chin and thought for a moment.

"Did she set off yesterday? If nothing unexpected happens, she should have arrived at Wangshu Inn."

Chapter 225, The Elf Tavern

Xing checked the time.

"Alright, Kaiya, you go ahead with your work. We'll go find Sosia now. Come visit us when you have time."

Call the ensemble leader and the others together.

Kaiya nodded in agreement.

Immediately afterwards, Hoshino, Kiana, and their group left the Knights' headquarters building.

As soon as I stepped out the door, I saw Sosia's tavern.

Sosia's tavern is only about 20 meters away from the Knights' headquarters building, but the tavern is located on the floor below the Knights' headquarters building.

Xing ran to the fence and had a clear view of the tavern below.

The tavern has three floors. The outside of the first floor has been converted into an outdoor area, with a set of tables and chairs inlaid with unknown gemstones placed under each parasol.

Like the first floor, the second floor uses floor-to-ceiling glass windows as walls throughout.

You can see the brightly lit interior from the outside.

The interior is decorated in a very elegant and rustic style, almost exactly the same as the tavern in the Arad continent.

The third floor is quite unique, with a layout that is half outdoor and half indoor. The outdoor area is a rooftop terrace, with a flower bed planted around its edge.

Even though it's daytime, the tavern is packed with customers.

Xing sighed as he watched this scene.

"Tsk tsk, Mondstadt people really love drinking. There are so many people drinking here so early in the morning."

I wholeheartedly agree with March 7th.

"We can't understand why anyone would drink so early in the morning."

"Let's go, let's go find Sosia and exchange some gold coins with her, then use that to upgrade our equipment."

Then, the group went down the stairs to the entrance of the tavern.

As soon as I entered the tavern, I saw a girl dressed in maid-style armor walking towards me.

"Welcome! I'm Noelle, a waitress at the Elf Tavern. What would you like to order?"

We recommend the breakfast set meal, which includes a choice of three drinks and a side of Fisherman's Toast, all for only 5000 Mora.

Xing was a little surprised to hear this.

"Oh? You sell food here too? Well, Sosia sells food in her tavern back in Arad.

Um, we're not here to eat, we're here to find Sosia.

Is she in the store?

Noelle nodded upon hearing this.

"Yes, what can I do for you, store manager?"

Upon hearing this, Xing explained his purpose.

“We are Sosia’s friends, and we’ve come to do some business with her.”

Upon hearing this, Noelle thought for a moment and then gestured with her hand.

"Please follow me, the manager is on the third floor."

Xing, Kiana, and the others followed Noelle up to the third floor, curiously looking around the store along the way.

The shop was quite busy, with many people having breakfast with beer.

On the second floor, Xing also saw Wendy, who was eating a beer in one hand and a fisherman's toast in the other, enjoying it immensely.

soon.

The group arrived at the third floor.

Surprisingly, the third floor was not a business area.

"Noelle, is this place not open to the public? I don't see any dining tables here."

Noelle nodded slightly.

"Yes, this is the store manager's room, and also her office."

As Noelle finished speaking, the wooden door leading to the rooftop was pushed open, and Sosia led Klee in.

Klee was overjoyed to see Hook and Clara.

"Hook! Clara!!!"

Hook also saw Klee.

"Klee!!! Hook has missed you so much!!"

The two little ones ran to each other and hugged tightly.

Sosia smiled and greeted the visitors as Xing and the others.

"Long time no see, everyone."

March 7th waved goodbye.

"Long time no see, Sosia, your tavern is so beautiful!"

Sosia was very pleased to hear this.

"Thank you for the compliment.

Come on, don't stand, sit here.

Noelle, could you please bring up some tea and snacks?

Upon hearing this, Noelle turned and went downstairs.

Hook, Claire, and Clara ran to an open space in the corner of the living room to play.

Sosia asked Xing and the others.

"Why did you all decide to come to Mondstadt today?"

"Star replied."

"We've come to find you."

That being said, you spend most of your time here every day now.

"Are you really going to abandon Arad?"

Sosia shook her head upon hearing this.

"I still need to manage it, but I don't need to keep an eye on it all the time. The staff there are all veterans who know what to do at what time and how to handle conflicts between customers."

Every day, all I need to do is check the accounts.

Also, I asked Ariel to help out if anyone causes trouble at the tavern, if she has time.

Kiana was quite surprised to hear that Ariel had actually agreed to help Sosia.

"Ariel? She actually agreed to keep an eye on the tavern for you? Really? Knowing her as I do, she probably wouldn't bother, right?"

Sosia smiled.

"I know her well. When she first became an adventurer, I gave her a few elven magic scrolls."

Those spells are still the ones she uses frequently.

Kiana understood after hearing this.

"Oh, I see."

No wonder Ariel, who hates trouble the most, agreed to watch the shop for you.

Speaking of which, what has Ariel been up to these past few days?

Sosia said upon hearing this.

"I ran into her yesterday when I went back to check the accounts. She's been playing Sky Tower lately."

Oh, and she also asked me where you guys went, because she couldn't find you.

Considering you said not to reveal your identities as visitors from another world, I told her I didn't know either.

Upon hearing this, Xing scratched his head and thought for a moment.

"Hmm... how about we call her over too? She's part of the same adventurer's group, after all. We've been wandering around and completely forgot about her."

March 7th thought about it.

"We think it's a good idea too."

Kiana and Mei naturally agreed. The reason they didn't reveal their identities was to prevent anyone with ulterior motives from harming Hoshi and the others.
