Chapter 253
“Mandrill!!!”
“Mandrill is always so handsome every time he appears~”
“By the way, did Mandrill have a good time in the plot?”
Seeing Mandrill’s unique and handsome appearance, many female players were starry-eyed.
“Hello, I am Keqing, the Yuheng star among the seven stars in Liyue.”
Keqing introduced herself.
“Yuheng Xingqing…” Mandrill touched his chin and felt that you looked familiar. “By the way, I saw you when I was attacking Auxerre. You are good at swordsmanship.”
Paimon said happily: “We are here to give you gifts for the Sea of Lantern Festival! Look, there are so many things!”
“What a waste.” Mandrill glanced at the gifts that looked very precious, shook his head and said, “It is my duty to subdue demons and demons, so there is no need to be polite.”
“‘Karma’ is harmful to the human body. You’d better not approach me at will.”
Mandrill said, seeming to turn around and leave.
“Traveler: It’s okay, I’m not a human being.”
“It seems that among the four, only Keqing is a pure human, hahaha~”
“Mandrill’s smile is so gentle.”
Before Mandrill disappeared, Ying quickly sent out an invitation.
“The Lantern Festival is coming soon, let’s go to the city to watch the fireworks together!”
Mandrill hesitated for a moment, then turned around and said, “I don’t like noisy places.”
“In addition, we need to take more precautions during the festival. You should also be more careful when playing. If you encounter danger…”
Ying nodded, “I’ll pay attention.”
After seeing Ying nod, Mandrill disappeared instantly, leaving only a black mist in place.
When they arrived here, all the immortals had finished visiting. Keqing and Ying came to the first floor of the inn to rest for a while before preparing to go back to the city.
However, as soon as they left the inn, they saw Peng Yizheng, the pyrotechnics master of Liyue Port, scratching his hair with a distressed look on his face.
After seeing Keqing’s figure, Pengyi suddenly looked overjoyed, as if he had seen a savior.
“Lord Keqing, it’s so nice to see you! All the fireworks we arranged at Qingce Village have been stolen!”
“I made another batch and sent them over. I wanted to contact the Qianyan Army to help guard it, but as the Hai Lantern Festival is approaching, the Qianyan Army are also running around, and there is far insufficient manpower…”
“The budget for preparations has been exhausted. If the second batch of fireworks is stolen, it will be all over.”
Keqing also knew that the situation was urgent at this time, so she hurried towards Qingce Village without asking any questions.
Ying didn’t hesitate and quickly followed.
Light Ce Village.
Steward Ruoxin sighed sadly, “How can such good fireworks disappear?”
At this time, Keqing hurried over. After saying hello, he asked about the fireworks.
“Alas, the children loved the fireworks when they first arrived, but after just one night, the fireworks were all gone.”
“Everyone in the village, old and young, is worried now that a thief has appeared. They don’t dare to go out at night…”
Seeing the sad look on Ruoxin’s face, the water friends couldn’t stand it anymore.
“It’s just like the decorative lights on the street being stolen in real life. It’s so lacking in quality!”
“I understand. When you do the mission, go beat up all the treasure thieves around you.”
“These heartless people, I will let you know the consequences of taking things randomly!”
Keqing thought for a moment and said, “Village chief, please help appease the villagers. With the Qianyan Army on duty, everything will be fine. As for the fireworks, leave it to us.”
Later, Keqing and Ying came to the place where the fireworks were stolen to investigate.
Keqing frowned as she looked at the undisguised traces that remained, “It seems that they think that the residents of Qingce Village are old, weak, women and children, so they dare to come and steal blatantly.”
“They are really despicable, we must not let them go!”
Keqing and the traveler searched the surroundings and soon found the clues, and followed the footprints left by the thieves.
Not long after, they saw a group of figures.
A member of the treasure-stealing group was surrounded by several servants of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce. Xingqiu, the young master of Feiyun Chamber of Commerce, was asking something, and Chongyun was standing next to him.
“Misunderstanding! It’s all a misunderstanding!” members of the treasure stealing group shouted, holding their heads.
Xingqiu frowned, “Tie him tighter.”
At this time, Keqing and the traveler hurried over.
After greeting each other, Keqing asked about the situation at this time.
According to Xingqiu, Feiyun Chamber of Commerce will deliver supplies to various villages in Liyue every Hai Lantern Festival.
This year it was his turn to deliver supplies. It happened that Chongyun was also a guest at his home, and he also dragged him over.
And when they walked near Qingce Village, they suddenly encountered an ambush.
Seeing that Feiyun Chamber of Commerce’s convoy was difficult to deal with, the guys from the treasure-stealing group immediately scattered and fled, except for one who ran slowly.
The unlucky ones were caught by Xingqiu and the others.
Ke Qing frowned and looked at the guy from the treasure thief group, and then borrowed a few servants from Xingqiu, planning to let the servants escort the guy from the treasure thief group to the General Affairs Department first.
Naturally, Xingqiu would not refuse, and said very boldly: “Come here! Take this thief to the General Affairs Department!”
Xingqiu’s domineering appearance was quite rare, and the number of barrages suddenly increased.
“Hello, Second Young Master!”
“Young Master Xingqiu is really domineering and arrogant!”
“Hmph! I’ll make sure he never comes back!”
Before the servants escorted the guy from the treasure thief group away, Keqing asked them to send a message to the General Affairs Department to help interrogate him to see if the guy from the treasure thief group knew about the theft of Qingcezhuang fireworks. .
Afterwards, Keqing, Xingqiu and others exchanged information with each other and discovered that there might be more than one treasure thief group ambushing nearby.
After some discussion, Xingqiu and Chongyun rushed to Qingce Village for support, while Keqing prepared to continue the investigation.
Keqing looked at Ying and said, “Traveler, you should go back to Qingce Village to rest for a while. Then I will continue to investigate.”
Paimon: “Huh? You can’t do it alone, at least find a few subordinates to help!”
Keqing shook her head, “We are short of manpower at this stage. Besides, I can handle these trivial matters by myself, so there is no need to trouble others.”
“The fireworks this time are not small. Those thieves will probably find a place to hide them first. I just need to find the hiding place of those fireworks shops and then bring them over.”
“Don’t worry, I’m not a reckless person, there won’t be any danger.”
Keqing had already said this, and even Yingya Paimon was a little unable to refute, so he had to agree to her words first.
“Wait! Isn’t this a flag?”
“Could it be that the next plot is that Ke Qing is kidnapped, and then a hero comes to save the beauty?”
“I’m overthinking it. No matter how you say it, Keqing is a person with divine eyes. He is more than enough to deal with the ordinary people in the treasure-stealing group.”
“But the key issue is that Keqing has been working overtime for many days in a row this time. She is already very tired and her insight will be reduced a lot. If she is accidentally plotted…”
