The Homeless Man of Teyvat

"Kaia? When did you arrive? Wait! You were just watching?!"

Eula reacted and frowned.

"Just arrived, just arrived. I think you two are in perfect harmony. I'll just cause trouble if I go."

Kaia smiled without any shame and changed the subject: "The Fatui suffered heavy losses in the explosion, and only a small part of the treasure-stealing group escaped. This mission is basically completed, and only the final finishing work is left."

His strength is almost comparable to Noel's. He has a high degree of control over the wind element. He doesn't look like he just got the Eye of God. Only his swordsmanship is slightly lacking. He can only be called skilled, far from being profound.

Kaia's eyes flickered, recalling Chen Tianfeng's performance just now, and adjusting his threat index in his mind.

"Captain Kaia, are you referring to the secret treasure?" Chen Tianfeng glanced at the direction from which Kaia came, thinking: "The seal withstood the explosion?"

Kaia came from the direction of the Gongtai seal, and specifically said that the mission still had to be finished, which meant that he failed to take the secret treasure.

"No, the seal was blown to pieces. It was a projection of a monster by the earth vein."

Kaia shook his head and said, "The explosion just now seems to have affected the earth vein. Monsters have appeared throughout the ruins, and the area around the secret treasure is no exception. It's very troublesome."

"Why did it explode? What did you do?" Eula's eyes turned around the two of them, and she reasonably expressed her doubts and guesses.

"Captain Eula misunderstood. I didn't do anything. Just to sneak into the treasure-stealing group without arousing suspicion has made me do my best." Chen Tianfeng said sincerely, saying that no one would believe it.

"Mr. Chen is really humorous. I saw you lead the treasure-stealing group to besiege the Fatui. If you just don't arouse suspicion, you can't do this, right?"

Kaia glanced at him and smiled playfully: "I didn't do anything, and I almost got blown to death."

"Anyway, I really didn't arouse suspicion."

Chen Tianfeng's expression remained unchanged, and he bowed to Kaiya: "Captain Kaiya is really humble. I also saw you sneak into the Fatui leader group, get close to the magic circle, and then the magic circle that was operating normally exploded. What a good trick."

Eula's mouth twitched, looking at these two scoundrels who exposed each other's shortcomings and threw black water, she couldn't help but feel a headache, and sighed: ".So why did the explosion happen?"

"."

"."

Kaia and Chen Tianfeng looked at each other, and neither of them wanted to explain.

"What monsters are there around the secret treasure?" Chen Tianfeng naturally changed the topic back, "Captain Kaia feels troubled, so they should not be ordinary hill people." "Yes, three hill thunder kings, plus a dozen hill thugs." Kaia looked serious and took over Chen Tianfeng's topic: "There are too many monsters, and they are gathered together. I tried to lead them away and solve them bit by bit, but it was useless - these monsters never left Gongtai too far." Obviously, neither of them was willing to explain the cause of the explosion at this moment, at least they didn't want to explain it themselves. "What exactly happened to the explosion?" Eula looked at the two suspiciously, as if asking questions. "This"

"Captain Kaia is naturally the one who knows this best. He is closest to the magic circle and can see it most clearly."

Chen Tianfeng moved his feet slightly and changed his position slightly. Together with Youla, he cast an inquiring look at Kaia: "Captain Kaia, please help me."

"."

Kaia's face twitched and he looked at Chen Tianfeng deeply. He regretted that he was one step late, and felt that he actually cared a little more about his face than Chen Tianfeng. It seems that he has been slack recently.

He thought for a few seconds and said, "Schubert Lawrence."

It's better not to hide such things from Youla, otherwise the longer the concealment, the greater the chance of contradictions and misunderstandings.

Not everything can be done in the name of "for your own good".

".Hmm?"

Youla was stunned, and seemed to not understand why Kaia suddenly said this name.

Schubert Lawrence, her uncle, is a typical old nobleman, proud but incompetent, rigid and conservative, clinging to the glory of a thousand years ago, and always fantasizing that one day Lawrence will regain its glory.

Such a person should not be a threat. Even if he wants to do something to harm Mondstadt, he does not have the talent to support this success.

"The Fatui cooperated with Schubert, and Schubert found an 'alchemist master' named Cornell."

Kaia carefully selected words and described it as detailed as possible, while defining Schubert's behavior as [personal behavior] and separating it from the entire Lawrence family.

".Is that so. It seems like something my uncle would do."

Eula lowered her eyes, took a breath, and slowly exhaled: "Is the 'alchemist master' named Cornell still alive?"

No matter what, Schubert is her uncle and her family. Although the relationship has long reached the point of disgust, it does not prevent her from avenging him.

Before she joined the Knights and almost broke with the family, her uncle always regarded her as a freak in the family, but he never denied her identity as the eldest daughter of the Lawrence family, and believed that she was indeed capable of leading the Lawrence family to regain glory.

It was reasonable for her to avenge Schubert Lawrence and her uncle.

"Dead."

Chen Tianfeng gave the answer: "Ten minutes ago, he died under my knife."

".Ah?"

Eula blinked and looked at Chen Tianfeng half-dazed and half-confused: "You killed him?"

But why? Could it be that Chen Tianfeng was also deceived by Cornell?

"About six months ago, Cornell committed a fraud in Liyue Port, and a friend of mine was defrauded of all his savings."

Chen Tianfeng paused and said, "In addition to traveling, I also wanted to find Cornel and get an explanation for my friend when I came to Mondstadt."

"Did Mr. Chen get an explanation?" Kaiya raised an eyebrow.

"Well, I asked him if he remembers my friend and if he is willing to pay back the money. He said he doesn't remember. I don't want any money, but my life. If you can, you can kill me and you can still pay back the defrauded money."

Chen Tianfeng sighed with emotion: "To be honest, I have never heard of such a strange request."

"Mr. Chen started calling himself 'I'm here' again."

Kaia smiled and meant something.

"Indeed, it's a bit deliberate." Chen Tianfeng thought for a while and said, "In the future, just follow your mood."

Kaiya glanced at Chen Tianfeng in surprise, feeling that he seemed a little different from before, seemed to be more free and easy?

"I didn't expect he was dead."

Youla reached out and brushed her hair, turned to look at Chen Tianfeng, and said solemnly, "Thank you."

".You're welcome."

Chen Tianfeng was in a strange mood. Looking at Youla's performance, he would have killed Schubert if he had not been fooled by Schubert himself. Perhaps the worst-case scenario is that Yula discovers him and then joins forces with Kaia to hunt him down.

What will you do then?

Chen Tianfeng already had the answer in his mind: resist vigorously, try to fight back, and look for opportunities to escape.

If the situation gets worse and becomes more unreasonable, the Knights will issue a wanted order and search for him with all their strength. Regardless of the relationship between Mond and Liyue, they will vow to kill this madman...

Then he would have no choice but to try to spill blood on every important body of water in Mondstadt - neither surrender nor resignation would be his choice.

I just felt a little sorry for Wendy. He was one of the few friends I had in the world of Teyvat.
