Chapter 13: Jean and Barbara
In front of the white hospital bed.
Ye Feng slowly opened his eyes.
Had a good night's sleep.
Stretch out your right hand, blocking out the harsh sunlight.
It took a long time to get used to it.
In front of her eye was Barbara, dressed in a white priest's robe, holding a pair of cases in her arms.
"Lord Barbatos, Uncle Asian, you are finally awake, please wait a moment, I will call my sister over."
Barbara covered her mouth, found Ye Feng, who had come to her senses, and hurriedly trotted out.
After a few moments, Jean frowned and hurried over with a few Knights of Favonius.
According to the last information left by the knight, the burned body turned out to be someone from the Lawrence family.
Not only that, but the family emblem belonging to the Lawrence family was also found in the ashes.
The Lawrence family attacked the people of the Knights of Favonius?
The most curious thing is that, according to Barbara's examination, she did not perceive any injuries from the knight's body.
Charred corpse, no injuries on the body, suddenly unconscious knight.
What the hell is going on here.
"Uncle Asian."
Qin came to Ye Feng's hospital bed, clenched his fist with one hand on his chest, and his expression was serious.
"Are you alright?"
Hearing this, Ye Feng sat up hard.
"Qin, head Qin, I'm just a little tired, and I'm fine now."
"By the way, what's wrong with that guy, I just remember him trying to attack me, but then a fire suddenly ignited on his body, and then I just..."
"Ahem."
At this, he became agitated and coughed violently.
Barbara looked flustered and hurriedly stood up, the Vision on her waist releasing an azure light.
"Uncle Arsian, please take a good rest, you may be overworked, and the stimulation is greater, so you will pass out."
The soft voice was like a gentle stream of water, and a faint azure poured into his body, caressing Ye Feng's soul and exhaustion.
Ye Feng's brows stretched, and he also appropriately showed a comfortable expression at this time.
"Thank you, Barbara, alas, people are old, and it is not good to be old."
He half-sat up, a hint of loneliness on his face.
Jean looked worriedly at the middle-aged man on the hospital bed.
When I grew up, except for business docking, several people rarely chatted like this.
His words and deeds are also a little different from usual.
On him, the whiteness between his temples was so glaring.
Unconsciously, the uncle who liked to mess around with them since he was a child, his hair has turned gray.
"Don't worry, Uncle Arsian, we will investigate this matter to the end, and we will definitely give you an explanation."
Out of respect, Jean didn't plan to ask for any more specifics about the matter.
Based on the testimonies of several Knights of Favonius in the tavern that night, combined with the traces of the scene, it is easy to deduce the scene at that time.
After three rounds of drinking, Arsian went to the toilet where he was attacked by someone suspected of being from the Lawrence family.
The reason why it is said to be suspicious is because this matter cannot be determined for the time being.
Although the Lawrence family is in decline, they also belong to a large aristocratic community in Mondstadt.
She couldn't easily judge on the basis of an unknown corpse and a clan emblem.
And there are many doubts about this matter, the corpse has obviously been burned by the fire, but the family emblem that appears on the side is quite abrupt.
It's like someone deliberately discarded it.
However, perhaps because of her long-term trust, her first reaction was that the attacker should be a dead soldier belonging to some kind of force, carrying the family emblem of Lawrence, trying to blame the Lawrence family, and did not suspect the middle-aged man in front of her.
On the contrary, she was attracted by the words in Ye Feng's words.
Sudden burning?
Could it be that it happened again?
"Well, I'm sorry for you."
After chatting for a while, Ye Feng sighed, showing exhaustion.
"Qin, I'm a little tired, don't work too hard, pay attention to your body."
"I understand, Uncle Asian, you have a good rest."
Seeing this, Jean understood what he meant.
Softly closing the door, motioning for the two Knights of Favonius to stand outside the room.
Then he left the church.
......
Inside the library.
Jean read the document in her hand again, her expression solemn, and she muttered to herself.
"Is it really the Black Fire Case?"
"Oops, what's the wind that brought our busy man here?"
At this moment, with a lazy voice sounding, Lisa, a librarian in a purple robe, walked with a bewitching step.
"Lisa, do you remember that incident a year ago?"
Seeing the visitor, Jean stood up and asked with a serious expression.
"A year ago?"
Lisa's figure froze.
She rubbed her smooth chin with her hands, and under her blonde hair, her blue pupils couldn't stop thinking.
"You mean the Black Fire case?"
"I remember that little girl, the teacher should have sent someone to take her away."
"She's back?"
"It's just a suspicion." Jean sighed.
"The acting deputy head of the Knights of Favonius, the Knight of Arsian was attacked by the suspected Lawrence family in the Angel Tavern, and the suspect's body suddenly burst into flames, and the body was scorched."
Lisa stepped forward and took the file from the instrument.
"Maybe not Blackfire."
Compared with Jean, Lisa knows more about these materials.
As far as she knows, black fire does not belong to any kind of elemental power, this kind of black fire will be more attached to living things, once touched, it will be like a python, unable to break free.
In the end, there are no bones left.
It can be seen from the mouth of the piano that the corpse was only charred, and did not disappear completely.
This situation does not fit the characteristics of the Black Fire case.
The two glanced at each other and noticed something was wrong.
After a long time, Jean summoned the knight at the door.
"Send someone to inform the Fatui diplomatic corps in Mondstadt that I need them to come to me immediately."
"And... Then send some people outside the city to summon Eula, who was on a guerrilla mission. ”
......
A few days later.
Outside the Cathedral of Zephyr.
Ye Feng, accompanied by Barbara, slowly walked out of the gate.
"Uncle Arsian, take a good rest during this time, and don't overdraw your body like this anymore."
Barbara persuaded softly.
"You're a little old, and my sister and I are very concerned about your body..."
It is only in front of this familiar elder that she will call Qin her sister, not the head of Qin.
"Yes, I'm old, and Mondstadt is now the world of you young people."
Ye Feng sighed, his tone was a little vicissitudes.
"No, it's not like that, that's not what I meant." Barbara thought she had said the wrong thing and said nervously.
Looking at her overwhelmed appearance, a smile flashed across Ye Feng's face.
"Silly girl, tease you, uncle's body is still tough."
"Let's go, I'll see you later."
Ye Feng waved his hand in a dashing manner, and turned away under Barbara's worried gaze.
However, as soon as he turned around, the smile on his face disappeared in an instant, and his expression returned to indifference.
It was surprisingly smooth.
