Seeing Paimon’s arrogant look, Ying couldn’t help but smile and said, “You’re getting proud…”

Paimon raised his head, looking arrogant.

However, after making some noises, she turned back to her father and asked, “We’re not going to join in on the fun at work, right?”

“It’s better to inquire about the “Card Thief” in the city while waiting for Charlotte to come back.”

“Is it really possible?”

Charlotte asked in surprise. She didn’t expect Ying and Paimon to be so reliable and planned to help her investigate first.

With Ying’s connections, she might be able to get information faster than she could.

Ying smiled and said: “With just a little effort, you can still go shopping.”

Charlotte was a little grateful, “Thank you for your hard work. Let’s exchange information when the time comes. To be honest, I am also quite interested in this Lord Ningguang, and I really want to meet him right away.”

Seeing this, the water friends were a little disappointed.

“No!! I want to see Ning Guang!!”

“I want to see you too!!”

“The traveler should be the most well-connected person in Teyvat (”

But after agreeing, Charlotte left with Baiwen.

Watching them leave, Paimon started chatting with Ying.

“I didn’t expect Charlotte to be quite a bit naive. I don’t know what the ‘exclusive news’ was about before.”

“If this incident is reported, we will also appear in the ‘Scoop’!”

“Hey, it feels like I’m going to be famous.”

Ying smiled and said: “We are already very famous.”

“You’re right.” Paimon nodded, “Then let’s start the investigation from the dock first. There are people coming and going there. Maybe someone has seen card trading.”

Ying also agreed to Paimon’s proposal and came to the dock with her.

They found Yong’an, the guard who was standing guard here, and explained the situation to him.

“The person who collects the backs of cards?… Ah Zhi! I haven’t seen him that often.”

Yong’an shook his head, “But just now… a girl who looked like a rice wife walked past me, and I just… sneeze! She kept sneezing.”

Hearing Yong’an’s words, Paimeng couldn’t help but said: “I always feel that you should take more care of your body… Let’s go to other places to ask.”

“I’m fine, I’m fine… Qianyan is strong and heavy… Ah Zhi! Don’t move.”

The water friends all laughed.

“Are you allergic to cat hair? Rounding things off, this is Lord Barbatos (doge)”

“I also feel like I’m allergic to cat hair. Didn’t you just meet Qi Liangliang?”

“There’s a cat behind this guy, it’s so funny.”

Later, Ying and Paimon found the sailor watching the sea at the dock. and explained the situation.

“Hello! We want to ask you something.”

Paimon greeted.

“Huh? Oh… you can ask, the ship has left anyway, I have plenty of time…”

Paimon asked the question.

Guan Hai thought: “Collecting card backs? Occasionally there will be people playing cards nearby. But… my mind is basically on the sea… I haven’t paid much attention to it.”

Paimon was a little disappointed, “Okay, then let’s find someone else to ask.”

“Hey…I can’t get up so late next time…”

Guan Hai sighed.

Afterwards, Ying and Paimon found the fishmonger Sun again and asked the same question.

“‘Summoning of the Seven Saints’?” Old Sun shook his head, “I really don’t know about that. They come here to buy fish, and no one has ever asked about the back of the card.”

Paimon sighed, “Really? Sorry to bother you, let’s go and ask elsewhere.”

Lao Sun quickly said: “Why don’t guests buy a fish before leaving? My fish are all ‘super fresh’!”

Everyone was joking in the barrage.

“No, I will catch it myself.”

“Super high school level freshness.”

“Envy of freshness.”

In the game, Ying and Paimon asked around but found nothing, so they could only think of other ways.

As they were walking, they suddenly heard a voice.

“Boy, are you looking for someone?”

“Huh?” Paimon raised his head in surprise, “This voice is…Manyo!”

Manyo smiled and said: “Long time no see, Ying, Paimon.”

Ying nodded, “Long time no see.”

Wanye said leisurely: “Recently, eldest sister went back to Liyue for the first time to do business, and I also took a stroll around the area. I didn’t expect to meet you.”

“You seem to be asking about something. I wonder if I can help?”

Paimon told Manyo what they had inquired about.

“I see.” After listening, Manyo thought, “The wind in the port is as warm and pleasant as ever. I think the ‘Card Phantom Thief’ you are looking for has not passed here.”

Paimon: “That’s it…”

“I don’t know if this news is good for you.

It’s bad, by the way…” Wan Ye suddenly thought of something, “There is a competition being held nearby recently, and I’ve seen it a few times. “Summon of the Seven Saints”… seems to be very popular recently. ”

“Huh?” Paimon said unexpectedly: “Hasn’t Man’yo played “Summon of the Seven Saints” yet?”

“Yes.” Wan Ye nodded, “I am always a bystander who ‘watches the chess without saying a word’.”

“A while ago, the eldest sister brought a small box on board the ship, which contained many beautifully designed cards. She also played several games with the crew. She was so excited that she drank a lot more wine.”

The water friends started chatting.

“A true gentleman watches chess without speaking.”

“Mi Huyou, please come up with the Manyo character card, don’t be ungrateful!”

“Mond plays more cards and drinks less. Come to Beidou…”

Hearing Wanyu’s words, Paimon explained: “That is the ‘Box of Secrets’, a small prop used to hold cards and find nearby players!”

“Why don’t Manyo come and try the ‘Seven Saint Summons’! The rules are quite simple, and you can usually play with your friends!”

Yingye said: “This opportunity is rare.”

“Hmm…” Wan Ye thought thoughtfully: “‘Meeting friends with cards’ is very elegant. Then I ask you to guide me.”

Paimeng said confidently: “Leave it to me! I often watch Ying play cards, so I can be considered a master card player!”

“In addition to teaching you the rules, I also need to get you a ‘Secret Box’.”

Manyo smiled and said, “But what’s more urgent right now is probably the issue of ‘Card Phantom Thief’, right?”

“That’s right…” Paimon scratched his head in embarrassment, “Hey, I almost only thought about old friends and forgot about new ones. After all, I promised Charlotte.”

“Let me think about… where to go next…”

While she was thinking, a man in exotic clothes suddenly passed by them.

“Huh? Isn’t that the rice courier who chatted with Diona in Mondstadt? We actually met him here.”

Wanyo also looked over there, seeming to notice something.

“That mark on her waist…could it be ‘Komagaya’?”

The water friends were all surprised.

“Wanyo comes with an eight-fold mirror, right? You can still see the pattern on the small sign from such a distance.”

“The lost kitten.”

“Qi Liangliang’s fingernails are so long, they should be called claws, right?”
