Lying on the tatami bed, Chiyo Rei turned over in bed. He looked at the sleeping Qinqi not far away, and then slowly and carefully recalled all the details of when he met the skirmishers on the street.
Chiyo Rei peeled off the cocoon and took apart the scene when he and the stragglers met frame by frame.
Suddenly he found that the skirmisher knew him, or recognized him, otherwise he would not have said that you found the wrong person, but should have looked back and left.
Seizing this key point, Chiyo Rei turned over again. He no longer looked at Qinqi, and instead turned his gaze to the moonlight window.
Staring at the window, Chiyo Rei was first of all sure that he had never met the skirmishers before.
If he had seen skirmishers before, he would definitely have an impression.
Besides, Chiyo Rei and him have been inseparable since they lived together with Qingqi Zhe. If there is something abnormal, it is impossible for both of them not to notice it.
After reasoning to this point, Chiyo Rei had a guess in his mind. Who said that the time traveler must be the same player as him?
Chiyo Rei trembled at this idea. He had been secretly investigating other time travelers, but found nothing.
However, assuming that the skirmisher is another time traveler, it makes sense that his investigation has not made any progress. After all, the initial direction was wrong.
At the same time, after experiencing the disaster of Tatar Sand, the scattered soldiers had enough reasons to shut down the heart of the imperial shadow.
There is also an explanation for the fact that Niyu is alive. He is a friend of the skirmishers. Since he can go back to the past, the skirmishers will definitely help in times of crisis.
This line of thought was originally smooth, but soon Chiyo Rei discovered new problems.
If the skirmishers closed the Mikage Furnace Heart and rescued Niyu, then he would definitely know that the disaster of Tatasha was planned by the Doctor and the Fools. In this case, it would be impossible for him not to retaliate against the culprit.
However, Chiyo Rei clearly remembered that before he and Qingqi went to Narukami Island, a new group of fools arrived in Tatarsha, and the movement of the fools was not particularly hindered.
Is it a straggler who traveled back in time and still doesn’t know the truth about Tatar Sand?
Chiyo Rei felt that this was the only reason why the skirmishers did not attack the Fools and the Doctor.
At this time, Chiyo Rei discovered that in this way, Niyu would not be saved by skirmishers.
Since the skirmisher didn't know who caused the Tatarsha disaster, his knowledge of Niwa was still missing, and it was not that he was deliberately killed by the doctor. In that case, he would not have thought of saving him.
After going around and around, Chiyorei realized that he was back to the same place.
Still missing key clues. Silently muttering, Chiyorei, who was getting more and more energetic, changed his posture again.
As a result, this time he noticed that Qin Qi turned around and looked over, his eyes particularly bright under the dim moonlight.
Facing the awakening Qinqi, Chiyo Rei suddenly felt guilty about being caught.
"Did I wake you up?" To cover up his embarrassment, Chiyorei asked proactively.
"No." Qingqi said bluntly. He didn't think this was being woken up. He didn't need sleep. He slept regularly to get closer to humans.
Besides, he was more concerned about whether Chiyo Rei had something on his mind than these minor problems.
At the festival, those who admired it clearly felt that Chiyo Rei was absent-minded.
So he carefully selected his words and asked Chiyo Rei softly, "Is Rei encountering difficulties?"
"Difficult?" Chiyorei repeated the word, and then he replied, "No, I was thinking about something." After saying this, he always felt that it was the same as if he had not said it. Everyone who was curious asked him this, then it must be It was obvious that he was thinking about something.
Realizing this, Chiyorei added casually, "Qingqi, do you have a brother?"
"As far as I know, God only created me and the general." Qinqi Zhe responded uncertainly. Judging from his memory and the information revealed to him by Yae Shenzi, Thor did not create a third doll.
But Chiyo Rei's next words made Qingqi feel a little strange.
I heard Chiyo Rei say in an innocent tone, "Maybe I really saw it wrong, but that person looks almost exactly the same as Qingqi Zhe."
"Did you see someone who looks very similar to me at the festival?" Qinqi frowned to confirm.
This time Chiyo Rei gave the same answer as at the festival, "Well, otherwise I wouldn't be running around."
The Qingqi Zhe secretly remembered Chiyo Rei's words, and his premonition told him that it would be best to go to Yae Shenzi and tell her what happened today.
As a descendant of the Thunder God, Yae Shenzi might know some inside information.
"I will go to the Eighth Palace Secretary and ask. If there is really someone like me, the Eighth Palace Secretary should just sit back and do nothing." After speaking, the Qingqi's tone was mixed with uncertainty.
Yae Kamiko's character has always been free and easy, and in Chiyo Rei's words, she has a bit of a bad taste. In addition, Yae Hall has recently opened, so maybe she really doesn't want to take care of it.
The next second, Qinqi rejected her idea. Although Yae Shenzi seemed to be indifferent to most things, if there really was a third doll, she would definitely treat it rigorously, just like she did with him in the past. .
The Qingqi made up his mind, and then looked at Chiyo Rei, thinking that the top priority was to put him to sleep.
Thinking like this, Qinqi lifted up the quilt and came to Chiyo Rei's side, just like in the past.
"If you can't sleep, let me tell you a story." He showed his attitude towards children.
When Chiyo Rei heard this, she immediately refused without thinking.
"No need." Chiyo Rei felt that he had grown up significantly now and no longer needed to listen to stories to fall asleep.
In addition, he listened to Qingqi Zhe tell stories before, all because Qingqi Zhe wanted to tell stories.
Chiyo Rei suddenly had a premonition that he still couldn't escape today.
As expected, the Qingqi person said, "But Lian used to like listening to it."
"Because I was still young at that time." Chiyo Rei retorted. He wanted Qinqi Zhe to realize that he had indeed grown up. Although he was still a little short at the moment, he would become a thunder-type man in the future.
Chiyo Rei was thinking randomly, completely unaware that there was no connection between the thunder-type adult and the bedtime story.
"Well, instead of telling stories, let's talk about some of the submissions Yaegongji showed me. Maybe they can inspire Rei." The admirer took a step back. He still remembered that it was mentioned in the books he had read. Children who say they are not children must protect their self-esteem.
Chiyo Rei became curious when she heard that the curious person was going to talk about Yaedo's contribution.
He actually really wanted to know what kind of novel Yae Shenzi would give to the Qinqi.
Driven by this desire for knowledge, Chiyo Rei nodded eccentrically.
"Then I'll start." Qingqi said slowly with a smile.
Those stories were very good, but he didn't tell Chiyo Rei that all the books Yae Kamiko read to him were children's literature.
Chiyo Rei, who had no idea that she was being treated as a child again, slowly closed her eyes as she listened to the gentle voice of the admirer and those simple but interesting stories.
After Chiyo Rei fell asleep completely, the admirer stopped talking, tucked the quilt in for Chiyo Rei who was sleeping, and then walked out of the spacious bedroom with gentle steps.
Qingqi closed the wooden door, glanced at the moon, and calculated the time.
Usually Yae Kamiko is still reading the manuscript at this time. In her words, going to bed early is something only children do.
The curious person always felt that there was something in Yae Shenzi's words, but unfortunately he had no evidence.
But it's good to know that Yae Kamiko is still awake.
Without thinking too much, the Qinqi walked toward the room where Yae Shenzi was.
The place where they currently live is Yae Kamiko's private residence in Inazuma Castle, which was purchased so that she can go to Yae Hall at any time.
When Yae Kamiko learned that Qingqi and Chiyo Rei were staying at Inazuma Castle tonight, he suggested that they stay here and save some accommodation fees.
Suddenly, Qinqi discovered that whenever it related to him and Chiyo Rei, Yae Shenzi would always mention Mora.
Coincidentally, every time she took out Mora, Chiyo Rei would always be convinced.
So much so that he once heard Yae Shenzi teasing that if Chiyo Rei was in Liyue, then he must be a loyal believer of the Rock God.
The admirer smiled at the joke, and he happened to arrive at the door.
After rearranging his expression, Qinqi Zhe raised his hand and prepared to knock on the door, but before he could take action, a slightly tired female voice came from inside the door.
"Come in, I thought you wouldn't ask until tomorrow morning."
That was the voice of Yae Shenzi. She had already deduced that the Qingqi One would come to find her.
The admirer didn't have much reaction to this. He opened the door and saw Yae Shenzi who was reading the manuscript under the lamp. The other party's expression was solemn, as if she had seen a work that she was not satisfied with.
Realizing that the admirer had come in, Yae Shenzi complained without even raising his head, "These works are not as interesting as those written by the little guy. Sure enough, children's imagination is more rich." It was not clear who this little guy was referring to. Metaphor.
Without giving Qinqi a chance to speak, she put down the manuscript in her hand, "I just received a message from the miko. They found Niwa Hisahide."
As soon as these words came out, Qinqi was stunned. He did not expect that it would go so smoothly. He had just finished discussing how to settle Niyu with Yae Shenzi in the afternoon, but he found Niyu in the evening.
"Your friend is a very vigilant person. If the shrine maiden sent out had not had a personal relationship with the daughter of the Akame family, I might not have been able to ask about his specific whereabouts." Yae Shenzi said as he passed the letter back. Give the letter to the admirer.
The Qinqi took the letter, which contained the general actions of the shrine maidens. They waited for Niyu on the dock and helped him escape from pursuit with the help of the secret treasure brought from Narukami Taisha Shrine.
After quickly reading the contents of the letter, Qinqi thought for a while and asked Yae Shenzi, "Miyagashi Yae, do you already know that someone will hunt Niwa?"
"That's right. Since Niwa Hisahide knows the secret, he will be a hindrance to those who don't want the secret to be exposed." Yae Kamiko suddenly showed a bit of displeasure, "I really don't understand why some authors want to reveal the secret without any foreshadowing. Let the guy who knows the secret go."
"Eight-level Palace Secretary." Qingqi Zhe helplessly reminded her that we were talking about business now.
Yae Shenzi also realized that she was off topic. Instead of feeling embarrassed, she asked Qinqi Zhe, "By the way, do you have anything else to do?"
Without intending to expose her, Qinqi Zhe replied directly, "Yes, there are some." Then he told what Chiyo Rei said to him.
Hearing that there were people who looked very similar to Qingqi, Yae Shenzi's eyes changed slightly.
Catching her subtle changes, the admirer stopped in time.
"There are rumors about this. Someone has seen you in other places." Yae Shenzi admitted frankly, "But I don't know whether it is true or not, so I don't take it seriously."
At this point, she changed the subject, "Now that the little guy has bumped into me, those rumors are probably true."
"So is there really a third doll?" Qinqi asked the key question.
Yae Shenzi shook his head, "I don't know about that." The god never told her when he made the doll. It wasn't until she noticed something was wrong that she learned that the god had abandoned his body and entered a place called the Pure Land of One Heart.
Sighing without trace, Yae Shenzi asked the silent admirer a few seconds later, "What will you do if you find the third doll?"
The Qinqi who was questioned fell into deep thought, and he had not considered this matter.
Fortunately, Yae Shenzi gave Qingqi enough time to think.
"I want to keep him." Qingqi gave his own answer.
Although he still didn't know what the doll had experienced, he always felt that the other person should also want to have a place to stay.
Yae Kami saw what Qinqi was thinking. She laughed twice and asked again in a bit of a bad way, "Then what if he also wants to become that little guy's family? Would you agree?"
This time Qingqi stopped talking.
