Genshin Impact, I, a weak person, am challenging myself to find a solution that will bring me lifelo

Without the help of her friends, she might have been unable to control the direction of Mondstadt by herself.

However, as the acting leader, she couldn't complain about these things to the Honorary Knight, so she could only get back to business.

"In fact, I have recently received reports from many members of the Knights, saying that the Lawrence family has close contacts with the Fatui."

"Fools, it's these bad guys again!"

The speaker was a strange little fairy named Paimon. Although he was small in size, he had a big appetite and a big voice.

At this moment, she stomped on the air a few times with righteous indignation, as if she was stepping on the masks of the Fatui.

It was only after she had vented her anger that she asked belatedly.

"But who are this Lawrence family?"

Ying was also a little curious. The name always sounded familiar to her, but when she thought about it carefully, she couldn't seem to remember it.

Qin said in a somewhat complicated tone after being silent for a moment.

"In the past, Mondstadt had a dark period ruled by the old nobles. The freedom that was taken back from the lonely king of the tower was put into shackles again, and slavery was rampant.

The first "Dandelion Knight" Vanessa led the revolution, overthrew the rule of the old nobility, and established the Knights of Favonius. Only then did Mondstadt become what it is today.

The old nobles who brought suffering to Mond were the Lawrence family."

"Ah, I think I understand. In other words, the descendants of these bad guys want to do bad things together with the Fatui again?"

Paimon said innocently.

Although Ying felt that this statement was a bit extreme, she couldn't find a suitable entry point, so she had to give up.

After all, I don’t really understand that group of people, so it’s not like I can defend them.

Qin shook her head, with a hint of sadness in her eyes, but it soon disappeared, she said.

"It's just a suspicion at the moment, and not all Lawrence people are heinous criminals. Among that group of people, there are also some who are simply born into the wrong family and are shackled with guilt."

"In other words, Qin doesn't think this is true?"

"I am very sure that my friend will not betray Mondstadt and join the Fatui. But the fact is that if I want to prove that Lawrence is wronged, I can't just make a decision based on my personal feelings. I must provide convincing evidence."

Ying nodded in understanding and asked.

"So, you want us to investigate?"

"Investigate? No, there's no need to investigate... I believe she has already solved this matter. She just lacks an opportunity to ask the Knights for help."

"Uh, Captain Qin has been talking about a friend, a girl, since a while ago. She seems to be very close to Lawrence. Who is she?"

Talking about this, Qin's expression softened a little, but there was still a trace of guilt in her eyes, she said softly.

"Her name is Eula, Eula Lawrence. She belongs to the Fourth Squadron of the Knights of Favonius and is also the captain of the guerrilla squad."

"Eh, it turns out she's still a member of the Knights. Then why don't we just go talk to her directly?"

Smart Paimon spread his hands.

“The guerrilla squad is deployed in the wild for a long time, responsible for patrolling and clearing out monster settlements, and providing assistance to the other knights stationed outside.

It would take several days for them to return to the city to hand over their tasks. If it were normal, it would be fine, but public opinion would become more and more intense in just a few days.

Originally, this matter could have been handed over to Amber, but she has been helping me deal with the aftermath of Tevarin recently, and I'm afraid she is unable to go out to look for Eula.

And right now, the one who has the most experience in wilderness exploration and is worthy of my and her trust is none other than the Honor Knight."

Qin's words sounded very nice, so Ying didn't think there was anything wrong with it and agreed.

According to the information provided by the other party, we went to the location where the guerrilla knight team was currently patrolling, Wangfeng Mountain.

But before she left, she passed by the Angel's Gift again and happened to meet Amber there.

She had an expression of "asking for leniency" on her face and was looking at Master Diluk with her hands clasped together.

The latter had a dull expression as usual, but it could be seen that he seemed to be seriously considering whether to agree or not.

"Master Diluk, and Amber, what are you talking about?"

Paimon asked carelessly.

Although it was very rude, Ying, who was equally curious, pretended to be expressionless and praised him in her heart.

(Good job - Paimon!)

"Oh, it's you! Hello, have you eaten yet? If not, I would like to invite you to have lunch with me!"

"Hehe, that's great. I still remember the fried meat with honey-sauce carrots that Amber treated me to."

When the greedy cat Paimon heard about food, he immediately changed the subject, which made Ying frown.

"It's you. If you want to eat, you might as well eat at the Angel's Gift."

Master Diluk also nodded as a greeting.

"Okay, okay. We also have to go out on a mission, and we can't work without a full stomach!"

"But little Paimon can't help at all, right?"

"No way! Having Paimon by your side is the greatest help!"

"You mean the thing about seeing the monster screaming in fear, attracting the attention of all enemies?"

Ying looked at Paimon as if he was looking at sashimi, and she smiled embarrassedly.

"Hey?"

"Hey, bullshit!"

"Hahaha, Paimon and Ying are really close. It reminds me a bit of a friend of mine."

Amber said as she looked at them playing with some envy.

"Friend?" Paimon continued to struggle, but Ying also held her in her hands, and was also curious about what Amber had said about the past.

Her intuition told her that this should be related to what Amber and Diluk had talked about before.

"Ah, it's something from childhood. Everyone has that kind of friend that you think, 'Oh, I want to be friends with her forever.'"

Amber smiled shyly for some reason.

"Ohh, where is she now?"

Paimon asked again.

"She...she," Amber's smile became a little lonely, and the red rabbit ear headband that was always full of enthusiasm and liveliness also drooped as if sensing its owner's mood.

However, she still forced a smile and said, "She went on a trip, riding a flying broom to a very far away country. Now, she is probably thinking about what to eat for lunch."

"Oh! A flying broom! It sounds like a witch. Amber's friend is such an amazing person!"

Paimon did not notice the loneliness in Amber's words, but spoke happily for her.

Perhaps it was this silly optimism and innocence that infected Amber, allowing her to gradually regain her usual vitality, and then she quickly pulled the two of them into the angel's gift.

Master Diluk never took the initiative to talk about this friend from beginning to end, but judging from his expression, he seemed to know the other person.

Ying kept some notes in mind, and after entering the tavern, the position of bartender Charles was temporarily replaced by Diluk.

He asked the three people.

"What are you going to eat?"

"The manor will bake the pancakes. Since we're eating here, we can't miss Master Diluk's cooking."

Amber winked at him in a flattering manner, and Diluk slightly raised the corners of his mouth, as if impressed by her cleverness.

As the guests were invited, Ying and Paimon were also surprised to see that Master Diluk could cook, so they ordered manor-baked pancakes.

While waiting for the food to be served, Kaia didn't know when he came here.

The foreign man had a sly smile on his face. He leaned against the bar, raised his glass to the three people, and said jokingly.

"A toast to the Honorable Knight—"

"Hey, Kaia, don't you have to work?"

Although Paimon was no longer surprised by Kaeya's appearance in the tavern, he still felt it was awkward no matter how he looked at it.

They had just come out of the leader's office and unexpectedly ran into Kaia drinking here.

Isn't it that while Jyn and other outsiders were busy with Mondstadt's affairs, this guy who was supposed to be working seriously was staying in the tavern and slacking off?

"Oh my god. Please don't say horrible things like that during my lunch break. It will make my drink more bitter than coffee!"

Kaia pretended to tremble, which caused the surrounding drinkers to laugh. He didn't mind at all. Instead, he mingled with them and seemed to be having a good time.

Amber stared at him with some dissatisfaction, and there was a hint of resentment in her eyes that Ying could not understand.

However, this resentment disappeared very quickly, as if it was just an illusion.

After a while, Master Diluk also brought out the baked muffins from the manor and said something by the way.

"You can't drink alcohol yet, but you can choose your drinks."

"Well, Paimon wants apple brew. The singing man seems to like it very much."

"I'm the same as Paimon."

Ying and Paimeng can be said to be highly integrated.

But when it came to Amber, she seemed familiar and said directly: "I'm still the same."

"Black tea... that's good too, it goes well with me."

Master Diluk simply nodded, then went back to the bar and personally mixed drinks for the three of them.

He didn't look like a winery owner at all, but more like a bartender.

The taste of the drinks also proved his excellent craftsmanship, whether it was the refreshing sweetness of apple brew or the aromatic and mellow black tea, they were all brought out just right.

The three of them were very satisfied with the meal, but there was still a small incident.

Kaiya seemed to be drunk. He held his cheek and spoke to the three people.

"It would be a shame not to order a glass of legendary wine when you come to the angel's gift."

"What is that?" Paimon licked the muffin crumbs on his lips. He was not very interested in what Kaia said. After all, she didn't look like she could drink, and no one would dare to sell her alcohol.

"us……"

When Ying was about to say something, Amber suddenly stood up, changing her usual behavior and attracting everyone's attention.

Her expression also changed from her usual lively and enthusiastic one to a rather cold one. She just said "I'm full" and paid for Mora. Then she left with the excuse that she needed to help Captain Qin finish her work.

Now even Paimon felt that something was strange. She bit her fork and spoke cautiously.

"Ying, do you think Amber and Kaia don't seem to have a good relationship?"

"Don't talk about others in secret." Ying also answered in a low voice, but this time Kaia also pretended to be drunk and left the angel's gift.

Master Diluk withdrew his gaze silently, and then spoke frankly.

"If you have any questions, just ask."

"Huh? Were you discovered?"

Ying was still a little embarrassed. After all, even she would feel shy to have her girlish thoughts exposed in public like this.

It’s not like Paimon is heartless and has only a stomach.

"Yeah. The way you were messing around with that little guy next to you...it was obvious."

Diluk folded his arms.

“Hey hey hey——”

The two of them laughed together, then left the table and walked to the bar, then asked in a low voice.

"So, is there any conflict between Amber and Kaia?"

"You can say that. But the matter is more complicated than that, and it is not what you misunderstood."

These words swatted away the two people's wild thoughts like a fly.

Moreover, Ying, who was keenly aware of some of the meanings, did not intend to continue to delve into it, but instead asked.
