Genshin Impact: I will turn into a breeze and continue to blow over Mondstadt
Chapter 112 Searching for the Real Murderer
Leader Qin walked into the gate of West Wind Church alone, her expression focused and serious, as if she was ready to face all challenges.
Once inside the church, she began her investigation quickly and methodically, with no detail escaping her keen eyes.
At this moment, Ying, Paimon and Rosaline arrived at the scene like a whirlwind. Their appearance made the leader Qin feel a little relieved. She smiled and expressed her gratitude to the three people: "You are here too, thank you for your concern."
Paimon replied playfully, covering his forehead with his hands: "Hey, Captain Qin, you don't have to be polite!"
Hearing this, Headmaster Qin turned to look at the nun in the church with a look of concern in her eyes. She asked in a gentle but firm voice: "Can you tell me what happened?"
The nun trembled slightly, revealing a look of guilt and uneasiness. She lowered her head and replied softly: "I'm sorry, Captain Qin... The Sky Harp has been stolen..."
This news hit Captain Qin like a bolt from the blue. She was so shocked that she stood there with an expression of disbelief on her face.
"What? The Skyharp is gone?"
She knew very well that the Sky Harp was a token of trust given to Mond by Lord Barbatos. If the Sky Harp was stolen, it would not only mean that Mond had lost a precious treasure, but it might also be understood by those with ulterior motives as the Knights' betrayal of their faith in Lord Barbatos.
"Damn it, why does it have to be at this critical moment..." Captain Qin felt a headache.
At this moment, Ying felt a little unnatural looking at the extremely tense atmosphere.
She looked around and saw Barbara kneeling on the ground in front of her, with her hands clasped together, praying devoutly to the statue of the god of wind in front of the church.
"Lord Barbatos, even if I spend the rest of my life atoning for your sins, it still wouldn't be enough, right?" Barbara's voice was tearful, full of self-blame and regret. Tears slid down her cheeks, dripping onto the ground, forming small water droplets.
Seeing this, Ying walked forward and said softly, "It's okay, miss. Maybe the Sky Harp was taken back by the Wind God himself?"
"Yes, yes, don't be so sad." Paimon echoed, his little face full of sympathy and worry.
However, Barbara was not relieved by their comfort. She still knelt there, motionless, as if she had lost all hope and strength.
At this moment, Rosalin was looking at the statue of the God of Wind. She suddenly felt a dull pain in her chest. She frowned involuntarily and covered her chest tightly with her hands.
Her eyes suddenly drooped, and her look became empty and confused, as if she sensed that something ominous was about to happen.
"What's wrong with you, Rosalin?" Seeing this scene, Ying's face instantly became nervous. She asked with concern, while reaching out to hold Rosalin's shoulders.
Rosalin took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner anxiety, but the strange feeling still followed her and she couldn't get rid of it.
She shook her head and said in a slightly trembling voice: "It's okay, I just feel like something is coming... a feeling I can't describe, like the calm before the storm, which makes people feel depressed and scared."
This feeling of powerlessness and despair was not unfamiliar to Rosaline. She clearly remembered that she had only felt it during the terrible disaster five hundred years ago.
At the same time, on the other side, after Captain Qin successfully completed the interrogation task, she immediately invited Ying and the other three to go to the storage room to check the situation.
When the heavy door of the storage room slowly opened, Paimon was stunned by the scene before him.
"Wow! I didn't expect there was such a huge basement hidden under the West Wind Church!"
At this moment, what is presented to everyone are thousands of books neatly arranged on the bookshelves, and all kinds of precious cultural relics and utensils are also placed in an orderly manner where they should be.
However, the place where the Sky Harp was supposed to be placed was particularly eye-catching - the area covered with red carpet was empty, with only a few anxious guards pacing back and forth there, looking helpless.
"Captain Qin, you are here."
"And the travelers and..."
"My name is Paimon and her name is Rosaline." Paimon answered before the guard could speak and winked at him. The guard smiled and nodded in response.
Captain Qin looked at the guard seriously, waiting for him to continue.
"Here's what happened. Someone broke in here today and stole the Sky Harp that we were keeping."
The guard took a deep breath and said, "We have investigated. There were no traces left at the scene, and we were unable to catch him during the pursuit."
"But what is certain is that the thief is very familiar with this place, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to steal so easily. The initial guess is that he is from Mond."
"And he is a man with the Eye of the Wind God!"
After listening to the guard's narration, Captain Qin fell into deep thought. There were not many people who possessed the Eye of the Wind God. If they were people in Mondstadt, then the scope would be much narrower.
"The holder of the Eye of God..." Upon hearing this, Ying couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and at the same time looked at Paimon.
"That's right Ying, try out your new skill - elemental vision!" Paimon shouted excitedly.
"Elemental vision? What is that?" the guard nearby asked curiously.
"Hehe, you can see the residual elemental power in some places!" Paimon explained proudly with his hands on his hips, "How is it, pretty cool, right?"
"So you also know this trick, Ying?" Captain Qin looked at Ying in surprise, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes, as if she had seen a savior.
As far as she could remember, she had indeed seen records about elemental vision in the Knights' library, but people who could use this trick were extremely rare in the entire continent of Teyvat.
"Okay, I'll try."
Ying closed her eyes and concentrated on feeling the elemental power around her. When she opened her eyes again, she was shocked by the scene in front of her.
All around them, the air was filled with a rich wind element. Its concentration was so high that in Ying's field of vision, the entire world was shrouded in a layer of blue-green fluorescence.
"How could this happen..." Ying murmured softly.
"So, so, have you found anything?" Paimon asked impatiently.
"I have two news to tell you, one good news and one bad news. Which one do you want to hear?" Ying took a deep breath and said slowly.
"Good news?" Rosalyn asked nervously.
"I can see that there are indeed remnants of wind elemental power around." Ying's voice was filled with a hint of joy.
"What about the bad news?" Captain Qin asked immediately.
"These wind elemental forces are everywhere..." Ying's face became solemn.
Hearing this, everyone present fell silent. They looked at each other, their eyes full of shock and confusion. Such a huge amount of elemental power was beyond their imagination.
Is the other party really just a holder of the Eye of God? This question lingers in everyone's mind.
However, just as everyone was thinking, Ying suddenly noticed something strange. Her eyes fell on the road they came from, where a strong wind element was drifting out.
"Wait, there seems to be some traces." Ying said softly, her voice breaking the silence. Then, she walked towards the direction of the wind element without hesitation, followed by Rosaline and Paimon.
