Chapter 161: Is Klee in trouble again?
At dusk the next day, Diluc returned to Mondstadt with a sleeping Klee.
Diluc still had no expression, looking cold and untouchable.
Klee put her arms around his neck and her head rested on his shoulders, sleeping soundly.
Even because he slept so comfortably, a trace of saliva flowed from his lips and onto Diluc's clothes.
Feeling the wetness on his shoulder, Diluc's expression grew even colder, and he just changed his hand and carried Klee into the city.
Because Diluc's expression was so cold, the knight guarding the door didn't dare to say anything even if he watched him hold Klee, so he just watched him carry Klee into the city.
After Diluc left, the two knights guarding the door whispered, "Why do you say Diluc is holding Klee?" ”
"It is estimated that Klee went to Dawn Winery to make trouble and was caught by Diluc, looking at this posture, I must have taken Klee to the head of the piano to settle the score!"
"But why don't I look like it? Klee, doesn't that look like she was caught after mischievous? ”
"Hey, you don't understand! Even if Klee blew up his vineyard, Diluc would still be angry with Klee as a child, and he would definitely go to her guardian, Jean! ”
As the two guards had guessed, Diluc had indeed come to look for Jean.
He didn't know where Klee lived, but since he had sent her back, he couldn't just find a place to put her down, but someone he could trust to take care of her.
Jean was in her office in the Knights' building, her front was stacked with papers, and the inkwell next to her was almost empty.
She was the deputy head of the Order, and she handled most of the Order's affairs and the whole of Mondstadt.
She buried her head in these government affairs, handled them seriously, and raised her head from time to time to relieve the pain in her neck.
She has long blond hair that is simply tied back with a ribbon to make it easier for her to work.
Even though she is dealing with so many government affairs, there is no tiredness in her eyes, only full of energy.
】
It was the expectation that the people of Mondstadt would live a good life, and it was a selfless dedication to Mondstadt.
There was a sudden knock on the office door, and she said without looking up:
"Please come in."
Diluc pushed the door open and walked over to her desk.
Seeing Diluc holding Klee, Jean really didn't react.
Diluc hadn't been here in a long time since his father died.
It was surprising enough that he was here, and even more surprising was the Klee he was holding in his arms.
Jean's heart, which had dealt with too much mess for Klee, was lifted almost instantly.
"Klee, is she in trouble again?"
"No, I just sent her back." Diluc placed Klee on the couch beside her.
Sensing the change in the environment, Klee opened her eyes in the middle of the lake.
"Where is this? Is Klee home? ”
She rubbed her eyes, she wasn't quite awake yet, but at the sight of that familiar face, she came to her senses almost immediately.
Thinking of her act of blowing nails on the snowy mountain, she jumped off the sofa with a swoop, didn't care too much, threw down a sentence and ran away.
"That's... Captain Jean, Klee is going home, goodbye Captain Jean! ”
Jean watched Klee run out like the wind, but instead of rushing to catch it, her eyes fell on Diluc.
"Why are you here to bring Klee over?"
"I went to the snowy mountains, and I sent her back by the way at Kaeya's behing."
Hearing this, Qin pinched her eyebrows with a headache.
"Kaeya didn't say in my letter that Klee was there."
Klee's teachings had always been a big problem for her.
Klee's mother, Ms. Alice, entrusted Klee to the Knights, and the burden of disciplining Klee fell to the Knights.
But Klee is too naughty and dangerous, so she can only give her the name of Spark Knight to make it easier to discipline.
It's just that disciplining a child is really difficult.
"That's how that guy has always been." Diluc's tone was calm, unmistakable.
"You already know about Snow Mountain, right?"
"Hmm." Jean nodded.
"In that case, I'll go first. Say hello to Grand Master Falgar for me. Diluc turned to leave.
"Diluc!" Jean stopped him.
Her expression was very complicated.
It was a look of guilt, apology, regret, and pity.
"What's wrong?" Diluc turned his head.
"Are you really not thinking about returning to the Order?"
"No, the Knights are not for me. I have my own way of guarding Mondstadt. ”
……
It took four days to return to the Hall of the Dead, and Hu Tao and Jiang Bai were both dusty.
Because there was nothing to do, the two of them were not in a hurry, walked slowly, hitchhiking a caravan from time to time, and finally returned to the Hall of the Dead in the evening of the fourth day.
While walking into the Hall of the Dead, the two chatted.
"Calculate the time, please Xiandianyi is the day after tomorrow, if you come back later, it is estimated that you won't be able to catch up."
"It's in Yujingtai, and I went up to Mr. Zhongli once." Jiang Bai always remembered this!
Liyue's patron deity, the Emperor of the Rocks, appears once a year, so it's a shame not to see this kind of thing!
He doesn't know what the Rock King is like!
Last time, Hu Tao said that the emperor of the rock king is in the form of a dragon, but the dragon shape is too broad, the dragon is also a dragon, the dragon is also a dragon, the cockroach is also a dragon, the dragon is also a dragon, and there are more ichthyosaurs, cloud dragons, descending dragons, and even dinosaurs......
With so many forms of dragons, I'm really not sure what kind of dragon Jiangbai is.
"When did you go?"
"I went shopping with Mr. Zhongli some time ago."
"Oh? I remember that Zhongli did send a bill back last time...... "Hu Tao remembered this stubble."
Zhongli had only bought a set of cups.
"But you'd better not hope too much for the Immortal Ceremony!"
"Why?" Jiang Bai was very puzzled.
What does it mean not to give too much hope? It stands to reason that the Immortal Ceremony shouldn't be the grandest day in Liyue?
"Because it happens every year, it's not uncommon for people in Liyue to visit the ceremony, and it's so much red tape that it takes a long time for locals to see it, but it's mostly seen by foreign tourists and merchants......
"Is that so?"
It's not surprising that there is a lot of red tape, after all, it would be too disrespectful to this god to prepare so many days in advance.
"Let's go back and rest first, get up early the day after tomorrow, and I'll take you to Rising to learn."
"Good!"
Jiang Bai nodded, just took two steps, suddenly remembered something, and went back and said:
"Let's call Mr. Zhongli to come with us!"
Since Zhongli is dissatisfied with the rule of the Rock God, he may reveal some clues when he sees that Rock King Emperor!
