They didn't understand, but the speaker meant no harm, and the listener took it to heart. Hisaki Shinobu silently recorded the information and also found out who those people were.

Su Hao and Jiu Qiren got busy and, after a short selection process, they found a house with the best location, the best decoration style, and the lowest cost for Mora.

Its owner is a Mondstadt merchant who is said to have recently lost a large amount of Mora due to unforeseen events in Liyue, and now his family is struggling to afford food.

Left with no other choice, they had to sell the villa and plan to buy a better house in Qingquan Town. In this way, although the place to live would not be particularly good, at least they would not have to worry about food and drink.

This villa is located in a central area of ​​Mondstadt, very close to the statue of Anemo in the square and Mondstadt Cathedral.

This villa cost Su Hao 25 ​​million Mora, even after Jiuqi Ren negotiated the price aggressively.

The businessman originally asked for 40 million Mora. Although he lost money, he still had foresight.

But there was nothing he could do; he desperately needed money, and in Mondstadt, it was estimated that no one would buy houses in the near future, in addition to the impact of the Dragon Plague.

This businessman also knew that the houses would likely depreciate rapidly in the coming period, and he was not the only one who was in a hurry to sell his house.

If he doesn't sell, then someone else will naturally accept the price.

Therefore, the businessman stopped hesitating and decisively signed a contract with Hisaki Shinobu, selling the villa.

What followed was a series of busy processes. The businessman moved all his belongings out of the villa, and Hisahi Shinobu also hired professionals to help move things inside.

After working like this for nearly an hour or two, it got completely dark.

Mondstadt is not particularly lively at night, at least not during the Dragon Plague.

The residents of Mondstadt returned home early tonight, choosing not to go out, but the taverns were doing good business.

At least when they passed by Cat Tail Tavern and Angel's Gift, Kuki Shinobu and Su Hao could still hear the noise inside.

On this quiet street, Hisahi Shinobu and Su Hao, carrying pots, pans, and other miscellaneous items, prepared to return to their new residence.

Just then, a figure darted out of the shadows, wielding a greatsword with fiery red flames burning fiercely in his hand.

"Ok?"

Kuki Shinobu frowned slightly. She decisively handed the item in her hand to Su Hao, then drew her katana, and the purple lightning within her Evil Eye erupted.

"clang--!!"

The katana and the greatsword clashed, and the fire element and the lightning element collided.

"boom--!!!"

In an instant, an explosion rang out.

Hisaki Shinobu saw the man's face clearly. He was wearing a Night Owl mask and a black cloak. His only distinguishing feature was his fiery red ponytail.

And... very strong. With just one strike, Kuki Shinobu knew that this person was yet another expert. If he didn't use his talisman technique, he would most likely be defeated after a dozen or so rounds.

Strange, how come I've only encountered experts since leaving Inazuma?

Although Hisaki Shinobu was puzzled, the opponent did not continue attacking after that one strike.

It was as if that attack was just a greeting.

He looked at Hisaki Shinobu and said in a rather hoarse voice, "Why do you have the Evil Eye?"

Clearly, he didn't harbor much hostility towards Hisaki Shinobu; it was only because the other party possessed the Evil Eye that he was forced to reveal himself and negotiate with him.

The Evil Eye is no good thing, and those who possess it are most likely connected to the Fools.

Jiuqi glanced at Su Hao, who was slacking off behind her, without showing any emotion. She knew Su Hao and probably guessed why he had come.

"It was taken from the Fools." Hisaki Shinobu gripped her katana, a talisman appearing silently in her hand. She said calmly, "Believe it or not."

"........."

Upon hearing Hisaki Shinobu's words, the man who had concealed his true appearance sheathed his greatsword and said in a hoarse voice, "I hope it is as you say."

“If you are in league with the Fools, then it won’t be so simple next time.”

After leaving those words, the man darted into the shadows and disappeared without a word.

Several Zephyr Knights on patrol arrived shortly after and saw Su Hao carrying a pile of odds and ends, as well as Hisaki Shinobu, who had just sheathed his katana.

As luck would have it, these Knights of Favonius knew Su Hao, because they patrolled at night and rested within the Knights Order at noon.

Because they were acquaintances, the Knight of Favonius didn't make things too difficult for them, simply asking what had just happened.

Hisaki Shinobu naturally told the truth, describing the other party's physical characteristics and the weapon he used.

One of the Knights of Favonius, after hearing her description, said somewhat angrily, "It's that Night Hero again. I let it go when he was fighting criminals."

"Now they've actually set their sights on you. Don't worry, leave this to the Knights of Favonius."

Hisaki Shinobu blinked. A hero of the night? Is this what Abedo meant by "gifts from angels"?

To avoid the "Hero of the Night" being misunderstood, Hisaki Shinobu explained that it was because he possessed all the evil eyes of the Fatui.

It is probably because of this that the other party misunderstood him and thought he was a spy of the Fools.

Upon hearing Hisagi Shinobu's words, the Knights of Favonius nodded in understanding. Judging from their attitude, they still held a deep prejudice against the "Hero of the Night."

After that, the Knights of Favonius led their group away, and Su Hao and Jiuqi Ren put the miscellaneous items inside the house.

Hisagi Shinobu looked at Su Hao and asked directly, "Is that Dark Night Hero one of the Angel's Gifts?"

"Are you curious?" Su Hao asked, suppressing a smile, as he looked at Jiu Qi.

Yes, the person who briefly exchanged blows with Shinobu Hisaki and then quickly left was Diluc.

After seeing Kuki Shinobu's evil eye, this old man Lu wanted to test him, but the other party's test was quite swift.

With just one strike, he determined that Hisaki Shinobu was not an enemy, and then left?

Is it based on intuition, or something else?

To be honest, when Diluc appeared, Su Hao was already prepared to assist Jiuqi Ren in fighting this Mondstadt Night Elf hero.

Diluc is quite strong. You can tell how powerful he is by the fact that he single-handedly thwarted the Abyss Order's plot and secretly protected Mondstadt.

If Jean is the visible guardian of Mondstadt, then Diluc is the hidden guardian.

The fact that the Grand Master was so confident in leading Mondstadt's elite troops on an expedition clearly shows that he knew the strength of Jean and Diluc, which is why he entrusted Mondstadt to them.

The Doctor also admires Diluc, and it was because of Diluc that he abandoned his plans and left Mondstadt.

Of course, it's also possible that the doctor sensed the danger and decisively stopped and ran away.

Just like in Liyue, after realizing something was wrong, the Doctor immediately chose to stop and run away.

However, in Mondstadt, no one stopped the Doctor from leaving.

In Liyue, the Geo Archon directly intervened to stop the Doctor and demanded that one of the Doctor's [slices] come over and go to jail.

“Of course I’m curious.” Hisahi rolled his eyes and looked at Su Hao, saying, “After all, judging from the attitude of the Knights of Favonius, they have a strong prejudice against the heroes of the night.”

"But the Night Hero, my feeling is that he came for the [Fools]. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Although I don't know what the lady is going to do next."

"But now that we know she's got her eye on us, it's best to find allies as soon as possible."

Although it was only a brief encounter, Kuki Shinobu acknowledged the strength of the Dark Night Hero; the opponent was very powerful, and if he could get the opponent's help...

So they gained another friend in the Mondstadt region.

“No rush, we’ll see him when we go to Angel’s Gift later.” Su Hao put the miscellaneous items on the table and continued, “We can also have Mr. Zhongli and Abedo go there together.”

It's getting late, and we need to finish this quickly.

Tomorrow, Su Hao plans to lure the woman out of her hole and see if she will follow him.

And now Su Hao is quite puzzled as to whether the street singers have sensed Zhong Li's arrival.

Logically speaking, as one of the original seven gods, Barbatos, also known as Venti, should have noticed that Zhongli, the Geo Archon, had arrived in Mondstadt.

Why is there still no news from him? In order to find out, Su Hao wanted to meet with Abedo and Zhongli, naturally at the still lively Angel's Gift at night.

"it is good."

Hisaki Shinobu had no objections, and she began tidying up the clutter.

Soon, the tidying up was finished, and Hisahi Shinobu and Su Hao went out again, heading towards the famous Angel's Gift.

"Bell~~~"

With the sound of bells, the door to the angel's gift opened.

"welcome."

A deep, steady male voice rang out.

As soon as Hisagi Shinobu opened the door, he saw a young man with a red ponytail calmly wiping a wine glass, as if nothing could attract his attention.

"It's you."

Looking at the young man with the red ponytail, Hisaki Shinobu recognized him at a glance; this was the guy he had just fought.

It wasn't that her intuition was particularly accurate, but with the reminders from Abedo and Su Hao, coupled with the other party's distinctive red hair and single ponytail, Kuki Shinobu basically knew that he was the person she had just fought.

"Hmm." Diluc nodded, making no attempt to hide anything. He said calmly, "I know you have many questions, but since you're a guest, please place your order first."

Seeing Diluc's attitude, Hisahiru was actually amused and annoyed, because it was the first time she had ever seen such a strange person.

Not long ago, she suddenly attacked him, but now that she's in his shop, he insists that she place an order first.

"It's a pleasure to meet you. I've heard so much about you." However, Diluc quickly turned his gaze to Su Hao and said calmly, "I've heard about what you've done in Liyue, and I admire you very much."

"Not everyone dared to confront the Fools head-on, and they even seriously injured a Fool Executor."

"The main reason why the Fools are so unscrupulous in the Seven Kingdoms is because of their executors."

Su Hao was slightly taken aback by Diluc's words, because he hadn't expected that Old Master Diluc would be so well-informed.

Although the Doctor's death occurred four or five days ago, the news has been kept under wraps, and it's difficult for anyone outside of Liyue to know about it.

Even the leader of the troupe, Qin, only learned of this news from the envelope given to her by Ningguang.

"This drink is on you."

Diluc personally mixed a drink and handed it to Su Hao.

Although his expression remained as expressionless as ever, Hisahi Shinobu could sense that Diluc was still very polite and respectful to Su Hao.

Was it because Su Hao killed the Doctor's slice? But how would a Mondstadt native know about these things?
