"??"
With his head lowered, Noelle looked sideways at the green belt, looking as if he had done something wrong.
Keqing rubbed her forehead and said, "Did Lisa ask you to say that?"
"Eh? How did Lady Keqing know that?!" Noelle's face was filled with surprise.
"Who else could have spread such a rumor? And would Jean faint in a place like 'backyard of the cathedral, near the left corner'?"
Noelle thought about it and realized that it was true. “But, that’s what Lady Lisa told me. She asked me to just tell Lady Keqing that and act anxious.”
This witch is still struggling to survive.
Keqing shook her head. She had almost forgotten about it.
After hearing what Noelle said, she remembered that she was going to find Qin today, and she could take this opportunity to get the marriage certificate back.
One is to complete the main task, and the other is to completely resolve this matter that is about to become a tangled mess.
"Jean is in the Knights Templar now, right?" Keqing asked.
"Yeah, that should be the case. Captain Qin is usually in the office at this time." Noel nodded and replied.
"Then Noelle, come with me to find her."
Keqing said and walked towards the Knights.
"Then what about Lady Lisa..."
Curling her lips, Keqing snorted coldly, thinking that he was trying to trick her with such a trick: "Let her play in the mud by herself."
……
"I will ask Noelle to tell Keqing. Keqing will think I am setting a trap for her, so she will ignore me and come to you to get the marriage certificate back. You can pretend to agree and propose the conditions I told you. Although this behavior is a bit dirty, as long as you repent, don't worry, the Wind God will forgive you. I have asked him and bought him five bottles of cider."
Lisa's words from before faintly rang in her ears again. Qin put down the pen, not knowing whether what she was doing was right or wrong.
Although she had already decided to confess everything, return the marriage certificate, and let Keqing go free.
But Lisa said that Keqing didn't ask for it, so if Jean gave it to others voluntarily, wouldn't that be a way for others to take advantage of her? Maybe Keqing needs the marriage certificate as a bargaining chip.
After all, Keqing is the winner of the duel, and as the loser, Qiqi should also have the awareness of a loser.
Qin thought that this statement made sense, so after the duel, she did not voluntarily hand over the marriage certificate.
In addition, Keqing went to the seal a few days ago.
The marriage certificate remained with her until Keqing came back. Just as she remembered this matter, Lisa came to wake her up.
When asking her to hand over the marriage certificate, he put forward a condition, which was that the marriage certificate could be handed over to her, but the engagement could not be annulled.
According to Lisa, this was the will of the God of Wind, who told her not to sever her relationship with Keqing, otherwise Mondstadt would face greater danger.
If this was said by the usual Lisa, Yiqin would not believe it based on her understanding of her, but there was a hint of "Wind God" in Lisa's words.
Lisa knew that her family and she herself were devout to the Lord of Wind and would not use their faith to deceive her.
Lisa really did go to look for the God of Wind, and later when Qin went to the tavern to find Master Wendy to verify it, Master Wendy also hiccuped and said, "Yes, I said that, hiccup."
Since it is the will of the God of Wind... Qin has no way of disobeying it.
But after sitting in the office and thinking for a while, Qin had other ideas.
Even if Keqing compromised, and assuming she didn't get angry about it, Qin felt that Keqing had ten thousand ways to escape from this noose.
Others are not fools, nor are they little lambs.
On one side is the will of the God of Wind and on the other side is the instigation of good friends.
On the other hand, he was wavering between following his heart and upholding justice, especially with Keqing's rapid growth.
All these contradictions combined made Qin's hesitation even more serious.
She didn't quite understand why Lord Wind God, who stood for freedom, thought Keqing was the key to Mondstadt's safety. It sounded like he was deliberately tying Keqing to Mondstadt.
But doesn’t this go against the very concept of freedom?
I believe that Lady Vanessa and even the heroes who defeated tyrants in the distant past would not want to see an unrelated person tied to Mondstadt and lose his freedom.
"Although Lord Wind God said that it would affect the safety of Mondstadt, but for Mondstadt, if she is tied to Mondstadt to ensure the safety of Mondstadt, then how can Mondstadt be called a free city?" Qin murmured to herself.
After putting the documents aside, Qin had a determined look on her face; she had figured it out.
She wants to question the God of Wind!
"Dong dong!"
But before she could get up, there was a knock on the door, and Keqing walked in.
"Hmm? Are you ready to go out?" Keqing asked Qin who seemed to be getting up.
Qin sat back and coughed, "No, no, what's wrong with you?"
Turning back to signal Noelle to wait outside the door for a moment, Keqing walked into the office and sat on the sofa.
She looked at the coffee on the coffee table, picked it up and took a sip.
It is bitter and choking, but also more refreshing.
This taste is just right.
"That coffee was made last night and it's gone cold."
"It's okay. I'm in good health. It's okay to have a cold."
Keqing put down her coffee. She certainly didn't come here to drink cold coffee.
Looking at Qin, she was still wearing the same knight's uniform, as if she had worn it for a year.
In fact, she only had a dozen or so knight suits of the same style at home, and she wore the same one every day.
In Qin's words, as the acting head of the group, you should set an example in every aspect.
“You’re not wearing that thing?” Keqing asked.
That thing?
Jyn touched her ear and realized that Keqing was talking about the earring.
"Isn't that jewelry..."
“If you don’t wear jewelry, isn’t it just like scrap metal? And it’s not jewelry, it’s a treasure that can improve your strength.” Keqing explained. She didn’t let Noelle explain because she thought Jean would be able to see it at a glance with her strength.
But I didn't expect that Qin would make a mistake one day.
"A treasure that can improve my strength?" Qin asked in surprise. She took a look at it and quickly wrapped it up, took it home and put it in the safe.
It was obviously a priceless jewel, so of course the less contact one had with it the better.
"Well, remember to wear it next time. Maybe you can beat me in the next duel."
This made Qin open her eyes slightly. If that was the case, then she would indeed consider wearing it: "But... wouldn't that be a bit too conspicuous?"
"I think it's okay. No matter how eye-catching it is, it can't be as eye-catching as your hair and eyes."
"Ah..." Qin was stunned and her heart began to beat wildly involuntarily.
What does Keqing mean by this?
However, Keqing didn't think that she said anything special. Jean's blonde hair and blue eyes were much prettier than the jewelry, and she was just speaking the truth.
After stretching and chatting, we got down to business.
Keqing said to Qin: "Okay, I came here today to get the marriage certificate."
"Well, then, that's good." Qin responded with her head down.
Keqing was a little surprised that he agreed so directly.
She also thought that Qin's "Dog-Headed Military Advisory Group" would cause some trouble, for example, the witch Lisa might teach Qin some tricks.
I didn’t expect that Keqing was worrying too much.
"Then give it to me. I'll take the marriage certificate back with me. As for the engagement, if you have no objection, then we can continue with it."
“Hmm…Hmm?!” Qin raised her head suddenly: “What?!”
"If you object... well, it's useless, unless you duel with me." Keqing said calmly. Anyway, Jean couldn't beat her.
"And I think our engagement still has some impact on Mondstadt's safety, so it's not easy to cancel it for now."
This is a lie. The real reason is that after experiencing what happened in the seal, Keqing felt that Qin needed a strong backer.
As a Liyue person, she certainly wouldn't care too much about Mondstadt's affairs, unless they threatened Liyue.
But Qin is the person she grew up with, and Keqing will never treat her own people unfairly.
Qin on the opposite side certainly had no objection, as this was what Lord Wind God and Lisa most wanted to see.
But... she didn't expect that Keqing actually thought so too.
"But if the engagement holds, then in two years..."
"If you don't want to..."
Keqing was halfway through her words when Qin suddenly stood up and said, "Ahem, I'll take you to get the marriage certificate."
Afterwards, with Keqing watching, Qin pressed the mechanism in the bookcase next to the office, and a secret door opened.
Then she went in with Qin.
In less than two seconds, the office door was pushed open.
Lisa and Noelle walked in.
Noelle looked at the secret door in surprise. She didn't know there was such a place in Captain Qin's office.
Lisa also smiled and praised Noelle: "Little Noelle played very well today."
That’s right, Lisa originally wanted Noelle to bring Keqing to see Jean.
Noelle nodded shyly, then apologized silently to the secret door.
I'm sorry, Lady Keqing, this is for Captain Jean.
Then Lisa walked to the bookcase and put a book that had been pushed in back in place.
The secret door then slowly closed.
But if this is the case.
“Captain Qin and Lady Keqing are still in there.” Noelle said, looking a little anxious. “Lady Lisa, if you close the door, they won’t be able to get out?!”
Lisa smiled while covering her mouth as she looked at the innocent Noelle.
"It seems that little Noelle still has a lot to learn."
Chapter 52: The Spiritual Symbol of the Knights of Favonius
After entering the secret door with Qin, Keqing walked through a dark corridor with her.
Next is a secret room that is not very big but has many display cabinets.
There are gorgeous sword blades in the display cabinets, some rusty antiques, and many oil paintings on the walls.
It seems like this is a special museum.
"these are……"
"The history of the Knights of Favonius." said Jean.
The so-called history of the Knights of Favonius, that is to say, these antiques were once famous items of the Knights of Favonius.
such as.
"This sword was worn by the former Grand Master of the Knights of Favonius, the Lion of Light Alendrin." Qin said, pointing to a long sword in the display case.
"He is a special but also great Grand Master. Even without the Eye of God, he was able to protect Mondstadt for decades."
"The flag here once belonged to the West Wind Church. At that time, the Wind God had just disappeared..."
Following Qin's explanation, Keqing walked to the center of the room, and at this time, she saw a slender sword blade, different from other antiques.
It was not in any state of decay or damage, but just lay quietly in the display case. The cold light emanating from the sword seemed to be able to penetrate the glass and pierce people's hearts.
