After seeing that there seemed to be no way she could help at the scene, Tsumugi Kujo said hello to everyone and went to the hotel she was renting. As soon as she entered the hotel, Thomas, the excellent adjutant, began to report to Tsumugi Kujo what had happened during her absence.

Ningguang's 600 million Mora has arrived. According to Kujo Tsumabuli's previous instructions, Thomas let Ye Lan go after confirming that there was no mistake in the amount of Mora.

"So fast?"

Kujo Tsumugi was surprised to hear that Ningguang's 600 million Mora had arrived so quickly.

"Well, because the person who came to deliver Mora was Yuhengxing Keqing. I once asked around and found out that Miss Keqing didn't know the purpose of the 600 million Mora. She just thought that Ningguang donated it to Mondstadt to restore Mondstadt's economy that was affected by Tevarin."

Tsk, I didn't expect Ye Lan to be so important to Ningguang that she actually tricked Keqing into coming to Mondstadt. If I had known earlier, I would have extorted more money from Ningguang. Kujo Tsumugi was a little annoyed.

"Where is Keqing now? I want to go see her."

Tsumugi Kujo is relatively in favor of Keqing's ideas, but she supports "rule by man" in Liyue. However, she is against complete rule by man. You know, Liyue is a country founded on commerce. If merchants are allowed to hold power without supervision...ha, I'm afraid that in a few hundred years it will become even more corrupt and decadent than the Lawrence family a thousand years ago.

After all, nobles still have some dignity, but as long as they have money, businessmen have no bottom line.

“Miss Keqing left immediately after hearing that Captain Jean was not in Mondstadt.” Thomas shrugged.

"is it?"

Upon hearing that Keqing did not stay in Mondstadt for long, Kujo Tsumugi did not ask any more questions.

Anyway, after Liyue, Kujo Tsumugi will have to deal with Keqing sooner or later, so now he can just concentrate on solving Mondstadt's problems.

After returning to his room and lying down, Kujo Tsumugi began to think about the two problems currently before him.

1. A run on the bank occurred after the new bank in Mond was established. It is estimated that the billion Moras had been almost redeemed during the time when everyone went to the Wind Dragon Ruins. Due to the previous experience of robbing the Bank of the North, the people of Mond now certainly do not trust the newly opened bank, and no one is willing to deposit money in it.

2. Regarding how to develop the tourism value of the Whispering Forest, Tsumugi Kujo has not yet come up with a specific plan.

If she had to say, Tsumugi Kujo has a third goal, which is to get Noelle to agree to temporarily follow her to leave Mondstadt and travel around to gain experience. However, Tsumugi Kujo does not need to worry about this. She only needs to tempt Noelle with the position of Knight of Favonius. She will probably be willing to travel with her. Ying will probably also be very happy to have such an all-round maid on the road.

As Tsumugi Kujo was lying on the bed thinking, a feeling of fatigue surged through her body and she soon fell into a deep sleep on the bed.

……

When Tsumugi Kujo opened her eyes again, she was woken up by someone.

"Second Miss, there is a Knight of Favonius outside who wants to see you. He said that Captain Qin has something urgent to tell you and wants you to go to the Knights' headquarters as soon as possible."

"I know, I know—"

Really, I just finished an exhausting trip to the Wind Dragon Ruins yesterday, why didn’t I even give myself a little time to rest?

Tsumugi Kujo turned over in bed, changed her sleeping position and continued sleeping.

Tsumugi Kujo slept until noon before waking up. After leisurely washing up and having lunch, Tsumugi Kujo came to the Knights' base in a leisurely manner. At this time, Qin was waiting for Tsumugi Kujo here and was almost moldy.

In addition to Jean, there were also Ying, Paimon, Kaeya, Lisa and other knight team captains in the office. Basically all the important people in the Knights Templar were there.

"Tsumugi, you're finally here, something big has happened!"

Seeing Tsumugi Kujo arriving, Qin didn't even feel like blaming her for being late, which made Tsumugi Kujo realize how serious the matter was.

"What's wrong?" Kujo Tsumugi's expression immediately became serious.

Qin did not answer directly, but turned to look at Kaia.

"Then let me explain." Kaia cleared his throat. "This morning, the Knights discovered a terrible thing while on patrol. The statue of the God of Wind in the Aeolus Square was splashed with red paint last night."

Tsumugi Kujo: ...

I thought it was some big deal, but it turns out it’s just someone scribbling graffiti on the street?

Kujo Tsumugi was very dismissive of this.

Chapter 121 Kidnapped!

At night, in Mondstadt, in the hotel where the Inazuma delegation was staying, Kujo Tsumugi sat at a table by the window, looking at the three small wooden sticks on the table and feeling puzzled.

"Ah! Never mind!"

Kujo Tsumugi scratched his hair and made a choice in despair.

"I'll choose whoever the little prince points to... Um, tonight it's Rosaline..."

Seeing the wooden stick representing Rosaline on the table, Kujo Tsumugi pondered for a long time, then silently put the stick away.

"I'll choose whoever I point to... It's Sandoni! Great!"

Then Kujo Tsumugi happily ran to the bed and entered the special plot. Soon, some suggestive sounds were heard in the room.

It was not until late at night that Kujo Tsumugi came out of the special plot. Seeing the wet sheets, she rubbed her head in distress, took off her clothes, and went to the bathroom in the room to wash her body.

"Hum hum……"

Tsumugi Kujo was humming a little tune while enjoying life in the bathtub, but she didn't notice that the window of the room had been opened quietly and silently.

With her swift and agile skills, a slender and tall female figure sneaked into the room through the window. Although the female figure covered her face with a mask, the emerald green bracelet on her right wrist and the short sea-blue hair revealed her true identity.

That’s right, the person who sneaked into Kujo Tsumugi’s room late at night was Ye Lan who was caught by Kujo Tsumugi before.

Now that Ye Lan's identity has been exposed, it is meaningless for her to continue secretly monitoring Kujo Tsumugi in Mondstadt. Ningguang's new order has also come down, asking her to return to Liyue to investigate the recent changes in the Rock Chasm. However, Ye Lan, like Kujo Tsumugi, is someone who cannot afford to suffer any loss. Kujo Tsumugi has caused her to fall so hard this time, how could she leave Mondstadt so easily?

Therefore, Ye Lan planned to take a "small" revenge on Kujo Tsumugi before leaving.

Just when Ye Lan didn't know what to do, Catherine from the Adventurer's Association unexpectedly took the initiative to find her, hoping that she could tie up Kujo Tsumabuli and bring him to the Adventurer's Association, and offered a price that even Ye Lan was tempted by.

Ye Lan doesn't lack Mora, but Ye Lan doesn't know how to take revenge on Kujo Tsumugi, so it's better to do Catherine a favor.

The Adventurer's Association is a huge organization spread across the countries of the Tewater continent, with its headquarters in the Kingdom of Winter Solstice. As an organization that has developed on the Tewater continent for hundreds of years, the Adventurer's Association has actually long been deeply rooted in the daily lives of people in various countries. However, because the Adventurer's Association has always adhered to the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries since its initial development, countries around the world have not opposed the expansion of the Adventurer's Association.

As for why Catherine knew her identity... Ye Lan couldn't say for sure.

For the people of Teyvat, Catherine is a mysterious existence. No one knows why there are seven Catherines in this world, and no one knows why Catherine's appearance has not changed at all after decades or even hundreds of years.

Similarly, Ye Lan didn't know how Catherine knew about the existence of Shadow, nor did she know why she knew that she worked in the Shadow force, but Ye Lan didn't care about it.

Now Ye Lan just wants to teach Kujo Tsumugi a lesson and then leave Mondstadt.

After confirming that there was no trace of Kujo Tsumugi in the room, Ye Lan turned her attention to the bathroom. Sure enough, a clear singing voice came from there, which was the voice of Kujo Tsumugi.

Ye Lan took out an incense, lit it, and placed it under the wooden bed in the room. Then she left through the window. Before leaving, she did not forget to close the window.

The aromatherapy that Ye Lan took out has a well-known name in Liyue, called "bewitching incense". If people inhale too much, they will fall into a coma in a short period of time and forget their memories for a period of time. However, the bewitching incense in Ye Lan's hand has reduced the overdose, and its effect is roughly equivalent to sleeping pills. People who smell the scent of this aromatherapy will be difficult to wake up, and most importantly, it is not easy to be detected, which is most suitable for use in the current situation.

After taking a shower and returning to her room, Tsumugi Kujo didn't notice the odorless incense at all. She lay back on the bed and quickly fell asleep.

Ye Lan did not appear immediately, but sneaked in from the window again half an hour after Kujo Tsumugi had been lying on the bed and felt that the incense was almost starting to take effect.

"This guy finally fell into my hands."

Seeing Kujo Tsumugi's sleeping face, Ye Lan had a smile of revenge on her face. She reached out and pulled Kujo Tsumugi's sleeping face, then used the quilt in the room to wrap up Kujo Tsumugi's whole body, leaving only Kujo Tsumugi's head exposed, and took Kujo Tsumugi away.

"Well……"

Perhaps it was because Ye Lan made a lot of noise when she was running halfway, Kujo Tsumugi seemed to feel a little uncomfortable. She moved her body, changed into a comfortable position and went back to sleep.

After a safe journey, they arrived at the Adventurer's Association, where Miss Catherine had been waiting for a long time.

"Thank you for your assistance, Miss Ye Lan."

Catherine gave a slight bow.

"It's nothing, but before I hand her over to you, I have something to say to her alone." Ye Lan looked at Kujo Tsumugi who was sleeping soundly on her shoulders.

"No problem. There is a basement in the Adventurer's Guild where we don't have to worry about her screaming when she wakes up." The thoughtful Catherine had already thought about this problem.

Following Catherine into the basement, Ye Lan discovered that she had really prepared all the props that might be used.

All kinds of torture instruments, both formal and informal, were available, which made Ye Lan wonder why Catherine specifically asked her to kidnap Kujo Tsumugi.

"Then I will take my leave first."

After saying this, Catherine left the basement, leaving only Ye Lan and Kujo Tsumugi there.

"Then I'm going to start too."

A cruel smile hung on Ye Lan's lips. She first used water element silk thread to tie up Kujo Tsumugi in a very shameful posture and hung her in the air. Then she got a ball of water and poured it on Kujo Tsumugi's face.

“Ahem…what…where is this? Who tied me up?!”

Kujo Tsumugi, who was sleeping, was caught off guard by the water and began to struggle consciously when she noticed it. However, the water element threads showed no signs of being broken free. Instead, they became tighter the more she struggled, which frightened Kujo Tsumugi and she immediately became quiet.

This bondage technique... Have I traveled through time and space into Himitsu-sensei's work?

Because Ye Lan's technique was too professional, Kujo Tsumugi even wondered if she had traveled through time again.

However, when Kujo Tsumugi saw Ye Lan looking smug beside him, he immediately understood everything.

Chapter 122 How to Obtain the Constellation

(If there is no segmentation, refresh this chapter)

"Haha, I didn't expect that Ningguang's spies would also start to learn from the Fatui." Kujo Tsumugi said sarcastically.

"If I were you, I would carefully observe the current situation before speaking."

Ye Lan picked up the whip and swung it. The whip hit the wall of the basement, making a crisp sound.

Ye Yalan nodded with satisfaction and looked at Kujo Tsumabushi who was hanging in the air and glaring at her fiercely.

"How about it? Do you want to try its power?"

"What? You like whips? If you beg me, then I can satisfy your perverted desire to be whipped." Kujo Tsumugi said sarcastically without panic. If she wanted to, she could easily break free from Ye Lan's restraints, but now Ye Lan did not reveal a particularly strong hostile tendency, so Kujo Tsumugi was willing to show weakness temporarily, wanting to know why Ye Lan suddenly attacked her.

"Humph, you're so stubborn!"

Seeing that Kujo Tsumugi could remain calm and fight back in this situation, Ye Lan's mood suddenly became very bad, but she did not whip Kujo Tsumugi with the whip in her hand.

Although Ye Lan really wanted to take revenge on Kujo Tsumugi, she was not a fool. If the whip was really used, the conflict between her and Kujo Tsumugi would immediately escalate to a new level, and it would be difficult to resolve at that time.

Although Ye Lan suffered a great loss at the hands of Kujo Tsumugi, the two did not have any irreconcilable conflicts, and there was no need to escalate the conflicts because of these things. Both of them knew this, so they left room for each other. For example, although Kujo Tsumugi used Ye Lan to cheat Ningguang of a large sum of money, Kujo Tsumugi did not abuse Ye Lan during the days when she was detained, and Kujo Tsumugi did not take away Ye Lan's ancestral emerald green bracelet and cloak.

However, Ye Lan was not completely unable to let Kujo Tsumugi suffer a little. Hearing Kujo Tsumugi's tough words, Ye Lan controlled the water element silk thread to tie it tighter. The pain from her body made Kujo Tsumugi gasp.

The owner of the Water God's Eye has a significant advantage over other owners of the God's Eye, that is, if the owners of the Water God's Eye are willing, they can make the water elements they condense have a certain effect in healing wounds, and Ye Lan used this ability at this time.

Before Kujo Tsumugi could even cry out in pain from being strangled by the water element thread, the healing effect of the water element took effect. The tingling and healing sensation made Kujo Tsumugi feel extremely itchy all over her body.

The two contradictory feelings of pain and comfort made Kujo Tsumugi neither cry nor laugh. If this continued, it might become strange.

"What? Are you still being stubborn now?"

Ye Lan stretched out a hand and pressed it against Kujo Tsumugi's chin, forcing her to look at herself. With the other hand, she held a whip and gently stroked Kujo Tsumugi's white and smooth skin. Smelling the faint fragrance emanating from Kujo Tsumugi's body, Ye Lan suddenly felt her head become dizzy, and a strange memory replayed before her eyes.

In the memory that suddenly emerged, Ye Lan met a waitress when she went to Yanshang Tea House for the first time, but because she casually gave the waitress a tip, she was fired.

Later, Ye Lan was captured by Rosaria. That night, Ningguang, who came to rescue Ye Lan, demolished that person's house and forced them to leave Liyue.

This is……?

Why do these memories suddenly appear?

Ye Lan covered his head and took several steps back before he managed to steady himself and avoid falling.

When Ye Lan looked at Kujo Tsumugi again, she found that her appearance overlapped with the girl in her memory. The virtual memory from the simulation and the real memory were confused, making Ye Lan unable to tell whether she was in reality or an illusion.

When Ye Lan looked at Kujo Tsumugi again, her eyes had changed. Even though she had gotten rid of the strange illusion just now, the illusion just now was too real, as if it had really happened before. Facing Kujo Tsumugi, who had the same appearance and name as the girl in the illusion, Ye Lan couldn't help but think of the content of the illusion that just emerged.
