"Miss Kujo, aren't you going a little too far?"
Tsumugi Kujo's words were interrupted midway, and the voice that interrupted her came from above, a magnetic middle-aged man's voice. When she looked up, she saw a purple-black night crow standing on a branch, looking at her with an unfriendly look.
"What I said was excessive? It was obviously this girl who provoked me first. She is just a commoner, but she actually slandered me as a commoner. If it was Inazuma, I would send her to jail just for this sentence!"
"If I have offended you in any way, Miss, I apologize again." Oz lowered his head slightly to express his apology, but because he was standing on a high branch, this action looked more like he was looking down on Kujo Tsumugi.
An insincere apology.
"cut!"
Kujo Tsumugi curled her lips, said nothing more, and planned to leave.
Since Oz gave Tsumugi Kujo a way out, Tsumugi Kujo, who didn't want to quarrel now, was also willing to give Oz face.
It is true that what Kujo Tsumugi said just now was a bit excessive, but Kujo Tsumugi was helpless about it. Her personality was just that irritable and easily angered, like a powder keg that could explode at any time. Once she got angry, even Kujo Tsumugi didn't know what she would say or do.
"and many more!"
The matter could have ended there, but Fischl unexpectedly called out to Kujo Tsumugi.
"Take care of your family and don't let her scream."
Tsumugi Kujo ignored Fischl's words and spoke directly to Oz.
Compared to Fischl, Kujo Tsumugi is more willing to talk to someone like Oz. At least Oz knows how to judge the situation and has a clear understanding of the combat effectiveness of his side. He knows that he and Fischl together cannot beat Kujo Tsumugi, so he chooses to be tolerant when facing Kujo Tsumugi.
Unlike Fischl, the princess with a second-year syndrome.
There is nothing much to talk about with people like Kujo Tsumugi and Fischl who are immersed in their own fantasies every day and can't even face reality.
However, just because Tsumugi Kujo doesn't want to talk to Fischl doesn't mean that Fischl will let her go.
After finally finding the culprit who harmed her friend, there was no way Fischl would let Kujo Tsumugi get away so easily.
"My friend, Mona, is the girl you tricked into paying a large sum of liquidated damages. I want to pay the liquidated damages on her behalf, but can you give her back her freedom first?"
"Mona's contract is with Jean now. If you have any questions, just go and talk to her directly." Tsumugi Kujo waved her hand. Although she didn't want to talk to Fischl, matters involving work were another matter.
"Well……"
Hearing what Kujo Tsumugi said, Fischl showed a rare look of embarrassment.
Although Captain Jean was usually very peaceful and friendly in her dealings with others, it was precisely because of this that Fischl felt embarrassed to make such a request in front of Jean.
There was always a sense of guilt that I was taking advantage of Qin's kindness.
"This princess can swear to the Rock King Morax that she will pay the penalty. Can you give Mona her freedom first?"
Fischl asked again without giving up.
"No, it's written in black and white on the contract that Mona must pay the penalty before she can withdraw from the Knights of Favonius."
A contract is a serious thing. Even Kujo Tsumugi dare not violate it. At most, he would tamper with the terms of the contract... just like this time when he tricked Mona.
In theory, the fulfillment of the contract is protected by Morax. Although that guy is busy with his daily affairs and generally won't take the initiative to intervene, it's better to be safe than sorry... Those who break their promises should be punished by the Eater of Rock. This is no joke.
This is also the reason why Tsumugi Kujo wanted to hand this matter over to Jean to resolve. All decision-making power is in her hands. Even if she feels sorry for Mona and violates the contract to make Mona withdraw from the Knights, if Morax pursues the matter, Tsumugi Kujo will not be punished.
If Mona dares to break the contract and become a deadbeat, then Mond can issue a warrant to the Adventurer's Association, and have Mona hunted down by all adventurers on the entire continent. The best outcome would be to join a treasure-stealing group and become a bandit.
As for the worst outcome...I can't go into detail.
"Really... there's no chance?" Fischl clenched his fists and muttered softly.
Although any discerning person can see from this incident that Mona was cheated, there is no problem at all with the contract signed by Kujo Tsumugi and Mona. Even if there is a problem, Morax will rigidly conduct the trial according to the content of the contract.
After all, Morax is the god of contracts, not the god of justice.
"Well, can you take me to see Captain Qin?"
Fischl mustered up the courage to speak.
"Um... OK."
Anyway, Kujo Tsumugi is free now, so it would be a shame not to watch it if she has something fun to do. Besides, she hasn't been intimate with Qin for a while, and she unexpectedly missed that upright knight.
After that, the two of them patrolled until dusk. Since Fischl was thinking about how to convince Jean after meeting her, he did not talk to Tsumugi Kujo during the patrol.
After the patrol mission was over, the two of them took the Tevarin back to Mondstadt. After receiving the reward for this mission from the Adventurer's Guild, they walked towards the direction of Captain Jean's office under the eyes of Miss Catherine...

Chapter 205 Qin's Ideological Education Work
"Yoho, how is our Captain Qin doing lately?"
Taking Fischl all the way to Captain Jyn's office, even during this joyous and peaceful Wine Festival, Jyn was still buried in the sea of documents in front of her as usual.
The only difference from the past was that this time, what was placed in front of Qin was not the recyclable garbage that was previously commissioned by residents to be written as garbage, but serious documents related to the Fine Wine Festival, which made Kujo Tsumugi very pleased.
"Tsumugi? And this is..."
"I am Fischl, the Princess of Judgment from the Pure Land of the Netherworld!"
"Fischl... is she the senior investigator of the Adventurer's Guild?"
Fischl is somewhat famous in Mond. As a senior investigator of the Adventurer's Guild, she is also a beautiful girl, which is enough to attract other people's attention, not to mention that her personality is so... well... outstanding.
So after hearing Fischl's self-introduction, Jean immediately recognized her identity.
"Ms. Fischl, what do you want to see me about?"
Qin originally wanted to talk to Kujo Tsumugi, but she found that this guy just said hello after entering the office, then moved the office chair and sat in the corner, with an expression of "You two talk about business, I'm just here to watch the show." Qin didn't understand why Kujo Tsumugi showed such an attitude, so she could only bite the bullet and talk to Fischl, who was said to have some brain problems.
"Of course."
Fischl told Captain Qin the whole story of the contract between Mona and Tsumabu Kujo.
"I see." Qin nodded, then glared at Kujo Tsumugi who was hiding nearby. She didn't know that Mona was tricked into joining the Knights, otherwise Qin would have dealt with the matter long ago.
If Fischl, an outsider, wasn't watching here, Qin would definitely catch Kujo Tsumugi and pin her on the desk to give her a good lesson.
However, after a long period of persuasion by Kujo Tsumugi, although Jean did not become as cunning as a businessman, she was much more sensitive in economic matters than before. So she did not directly forgive all of Mona's debts like a good person, but spoke to Fischl.
"I can waive the penalty for breach of contract, but the Knights have purchased a large number of books and instruments for stargazing for Mona, so Mona needs to pay for this part of the bill herself."
"This is easy. This princess can pay right now."
Fischl heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. As a senior investigator of the Adventurer's Guild, Fischl was actually quite wealthy. However, the amount of liquidated damages in the contract was too terrifying, so high that even this wealthy woman was deterred from paying it.
After seeing that Qin actually chose this method, Kujo Tsumugi couldn't help but curl her lips.
Qin has improved compared to her past, but not much.
Although on the surface it seems that the Knights neither make any profit nor loss, in the past two months the Knights have also put a lot of effort into publicity to increase Mona's fame and spent a lot of human resources. If this part is taken into account, the Knights are still at a loss.
If it was Tsumugi Kujo, she would definitely ask Fischl to join the Knights and work for a period of time. Now there are still some Hilichurls wandering around the outskirts of the Whispering Forest, which is just the right time for Fischl to use her reconnaissance skills.
But in the end, Kujo Tsumugi didn't say anything. After all, it was Qin's decision, and she could do whatever she wanted. All she had to do was to make sure she got the money.
Jean chatted with Fischl about some other things, and then tore up the contract signed by Mona. After Fischl left, Jean wanted to criticize and educate Kujo Tsumugi, but she opened her mouth and said nothing in the end, just sighed.
It is normal for Kujo Tsumugi to do such a thing. There is no point in saying anything. Although her methods are dirty, her methods can indeed help Mond attract more tourists. Even if Mona goes back on her word, the huge penalty for breach of contract can make the Knights earn a lot. She has fulfilled her duties as a special advisor.
But I, with just a few words, made all of Kujo Tsumugi's plans go to waste. What qualifications do I have to criticize her?
For a moment, Qin suddenly felt very confused.
As the acting leader, Qin certainly hopes that Mond can become a better place. For this reason, Qin has been encouraging herself since she was a child. Whether it is practicing swordsmanship or handling political affairs, Qin has always been strict with herself. It is for this reason that Qin has always taken the initiative to handle the commissions of Mond residents.
But the fact is, although Kujo Tsumugi's methods are dirty and shameless, they are very effective... at least, more effective than Qin who just blindly handles residents' requests.
This made Qin feel insecure that she was not suitable to be the acting leader.
Maybe... if someone like Tsumugi Kujo came to power, she could give the people of Mondstadt a better life?
Qin was confused for a moment.
When Qin finally recovered from her trance, she saw Kujo Tsumugi had come in front of her and was looking at her with a puzzled look on her face.
Looking at Tsumugi in front of her, Qin asked a question she had always wanted to ask.
"Tsumugi, do you think I'm a qualified leader?"
"Hmm... barely qualified?" Tsumugi Kujo thought for a while, then gave an answer, "If Mondstadt hadn't experienced special situations like the Fatui infiltration and the Tevarin attack, your governance would actually be pretty good, Jean."
"I have always hoped that the people of Mondstadt could live a better life, but all my efforts have yielded little results... Am I not suitable to be the acting leader..."
"Well..."
Qin's sudden attitude was somewhat beyond Kujo Tsumugi's expectations. After thinking for a moment, she decided to pass on some of her own experience to Qin.
"Not really... It's just that you, Jean, have a lot of energy but can't find the direction to exert it... It's like trying to stop a boiling pot by adding more water. You only solve the surface of the problem. When Mondstadt appears to have returned to its original peaceful state, you will be satisfied and stop making any changes."
"For example... the attack by the dragon Ursa a few years ago exposed the problem of your Knights' insufficient strength, but what happened... after Ursa's death, you did nothing and continued to live your peaceful lives. The result was the same as when you faced Ursa. When faced with Tevarin's attack, you could only passively take the beating."
Kujo Tsumugi's words made Qin lower her head deeply. This was indeed her shortcoming.
"Then how can I change this?" Qin continued to ask.
"Well... the more you see, the more you'll naturally be able to see the deeper reasons."
Kujo Tsumugi sighed. If it weren't for her identity as a time traveler that gave her a forward-looking vision, she probably wouldn't have been qualified to educate Captain Qin.
"There are two worlds in Teyvat. The first world has colorful rainbows, happy children, scholars seeking the truth, and bards who make all of this into beautiful songs. This is the world of ordinary people."
"The second world is a chaotic world, full of dirty politics, greedy businessmen, rats who are ready to take revenge on a certain existence, and terrorists led by a mad god... This is the world we... or rather, the world I live in."
"There is no black and white in this world, only gray."
"Qin, you still don't know anything about the second world."
As a noble and the jewel in the crown of the Gunhild family, Qin certainly would not have the opportunity to come into contact with these hidden underground beings.
If Tsumugi Kujo was not a time traveler, she would not have believed that the water in Teyvat was so deep.
Hearing what Tsumugi Kujo said, Qin remembered the doctor's human laboratory that Tsumugi Kujo revealed to her when they went to the Wind Dragon Ruins. That was the first time she saw the darkness on the other side of the world.
"It is precisely because you, Qin, don't understand the second world and can't grasp the full picture of things that you will inevitably be more one-sided when dealing with things."
Ningguang's "Shadow" special forces and Kujo Tsumugi's "Hunters" were both established to deal with enemies lurking in the darkness.
Although Mondstadt has a night elf hero, the areas that Master Lu can control are limited after all, so Mondstadt has almost no vigilance and defense against potential enemies... leading to such a ridiculous thing as the Abyss Mage successfully sneaking into Mondstadt.
Get in touch with more things on the dark side, increase your life experience, and you will naturally be able to handle events with ease in the future.
"In addition to this, there is a saying in Liyue that kindness cannot command the army, righteousness cannot command wealth, affection cannot establish affairs, and goodness cannot be an official."
In fact, the piano has some connection with these four points, it’s just a matter of how much.
When the debuff is fully stacked, it belongs to yes.
In fact, to put it bluntly, it is still a question of life experience. Although Qin is not young anymore, she grew up in an aristocratic family and has held a high position without encountering any difficulties in her life. Such a smooth career path has made Qin's experience completely insufficient. In addition, the people of the continent of Teyvat do not have such a broad vision as Kujo Tsumugi, so Qin's ability to handle things is naturally not as good as Kujo Tsumugi.
"Well... I'll leave now."
Seeing that Qin fell into deep thought after listening to his words, Kujo Tsumugi said hello and left Captain Qin's office and returned to the hotel he rented.
PS: There is only one chapter today
Chapter 206: Maid Noelle wants me to answer ~ The little maid's plan to reshape her worldview ~
After waking up, Tsumugi Kujo pushed away Catherine who was sleeping in her arms and put on her kimono by herself.
Today is the third and final day of the Wine Festival.
On the first day, he was taken to play games by Eulala. On the second day, he had a quarrel with Paimon and Diona. He was treated by Barbara and tasted the delicious dishes made by Catherine.
What can be foreseen today is that I will definitely be dragged away by Sandoni or Rosalia for shopping, dating and playing games.
