Genshin Impact: Journey to Teyvat

Chapter 47 The past that shouldn’t be asked

"So, can you answer my question now? Why do you want to steal the Sky Piano?" Diluc looked at them, his eyes sweeping over the piano: "At the same time, there is this stubborn agent Lord Captain, why did you choose to trust these two travelers from another world? Have you forgotten what those strangers did to Mondstadt before?"

"Do you really want to know? You might get involved in trouble related to the Knights?" Wendy reminded the tavern owner who looked extremely disgusted with the Knights of the West Wind.

Diluc was amused by these words: "Oh, I'm not afraid of trouble. I myself am the knight's trouble."

"No, senior is not a problem." As soon as Diluc finished speaking, Qin retorted, and he was silent for a while.

Finally, Wendy spoke up: "So, if I play a true story, will you believe me?"

Diluc's eyes were a little difficult to interpret: "Depending on the situation, I will make a judgment."

Wendy's tone was cheerful: "So, will you pay me?"

"...The reward ranges from 5 moras to the Sky Piano, depending on your story." Wendy smiled: "A glass of wine is enough. I don't need the Sky Piano in the church now, but... I’ll just play one more—”

Then Wendy once again narrated the poems sung in Mondplatz, and Diluc's usually calm and steady voice had a hint of ups and downs and surprise.

Especially when she heard Tevalin fighting against the dragon, Qin subconsciously glanced at Diluc, whose expression changed drastically.

"What is the narrative poem just now..." Diluc seemed to realize that he was speaking a little too fast: "This is an important secret. Why do you let me know this?"

Wendy thought about it seriously: "Why? Well... maybe it's because the direction of the wind is changing."

"——How about it, Master Diluc?" Diluc glanced at Qin, who thought for a long time: "I actually have never figured out the reason for the betrayal of Tevarin, the Dragon of the East Wind in the Guardian of the Four Winds. .”

"But if you were harmed by poisonous blood during the war to protect Mondstadt many years ago, and were corrupted by the Abyss Mage after waking up, you would indeed become incapable of controlling yourself..."

The female knight's light blue resolute eyes held a rare seriousness: "But as the "acting captain", Qin must not say these words. "

The Knights actually have many difficulties, and... Qin looked in the direction of the "Fools" diplomat outside the tavern: "Due to the diplomatic pressure of the "Fools", it is difficult for the Knights to publicly express their goodwill towards the Wind Demon Dragon. Because that would be considered as connivance and inaction, I originally wanted to ask them to investigate privately, but of course I also told my seniors. "

Diluc snorted coldly: "This is one of the reasons why I don't like the Knights. However, I am surprised that you believe in them."

Qin responded confidently: "Aren't people as strict and rigorous as senior willing to believe them?"

Diluc turned his head to avoid eye contact with Qin: "I told you not to call me senior... Anyway, it's rare for us to cooperate this time."

Ying was a little curious, but in the end she didn't say those two words. Since they didn't want to say it, there was no need to ask.

Paimon whispered to them: "It seems there are some past issues that shouldn't be asked..." Ying nodded.

"Then the next question is ours." Gan Lin quickly changed the subject: "Boss Diluc, I want to know why we are suspected of stealing the Sky Piano?"

Qin also looked over. She had been in the wind just now, and she had not returned to the office. Lisa was planning the route to collect the books. She would not interfere with other things until she made arrangements. Kaia is still dealing with previous matters and there will be a mourning ceremony in a few days. So the Knights may be in a state where no one is commanding them.

"I don't know what the two people who came over from the Knights of the West Wind said about this." Diluc frowned. He was quite disgusted with contact with the Knights.

Moreover, I recently received news from Kaia, and I need to call in people to investigate recently, so I can't help much.

"I will go back and explain this matter later, but who stole this thing?" Qin actually had a certain person in mind. She looked at Wendy: "The essence of the conflict between Mondstadt City and Solstice Kingdom is Above is the conflict between the Seven Kingdoms and the Seven Gods. The "Fools" commanded by the Ice God are coveting the divine power left by the Wind God..."

Wendy lowered her head and thought after hearing this, feeling a little angry: "That's why they proposed to take over the city defense. Do they want to kill Tevalin?"

Qin nodded: "Yes, if the attempt to kill the wind dragon is stopped by the knights, then... the piano in the sky is the only power of the wind god that they can get."

Diluc continued: "There are as many members of the Fools who are alone in Mondstadt as you want. I have pried a lot of information out of their mouths. "

"The information Diluc got is that the Fools did not put the Sky Piano in the Gothic Hotel. Even they would not dare to put such a thing in a semi-public location." Qin obviously knows Diluc very well. information.

"I understand, I understand. After all, if things get too big, it will turn into a serious diplomatic crisis. Paimon nodded understandingly.

Diluc sneered: "Oh, that's how the relationship between the Seven Kingdoms is." There was disdain in his voice.

"Then I will take you back to the Knights first, and I will tell you that I have discussed borrowing the piano with you in Fengqi Land just now." Qin paused and said, "I will try to work with you in the future."

"It's okay, we can understand." Ying nodded and signaled to Diluc Wendy.

"Then, after you resolve this misunderstanding, come to Dawn Winery to find us. Bard, let's go." Diluc quickly decided on the meeting place, turned around and left first.

The knights were indeed in a panic. When they learned that the Sky Piano was missing, the nuns sent Barbara, but they could not find the leader of the piano. It happened that Noelle saw the anxious Barbara.

"Barbara, what happened? Do you need my help?" Barbara asked hurriedly as soon as Noel finished speaking.

"Has Noelle seen Captain Qin? I have something very urgent that I need to talk to her about." Barbara almost burst into tears. As a follower of the Wind God, she failed to protect the Wind God's Qin. , someone actually stole it right under my nose.

As a devout believer, Barbara really blamed herself to death.

"Captain Qin said before that he was going to find the travelers. He wanted to tell them something, but he hasn't come back yet." Noelle had also seen Qin and Ganlin near the knights before, so he just turned around. , they all disappeared. Noelle thought they might have gone to do something important, so she left in a hurry.
