Mondstadt.
The sky has become dark.
After a busy day, the people of Mondstadt got off work on time, and then gathered in twos and threes at various taverns in the city. The rich ordered a glass of dandelion wine, and the poor ordered a glass of light ale. Two plates of appetizers were placed on the table. Start today's nightlife with the singing of minstrels.
Among them, especially [Angel's Gift] opened by Chenxi Winery, after the recent arrival of a bard named Wendy, the business of [Angel's Gift], which was already booming, has become even more overcrowded.
Good thing.
Wendy only came to sing once in a while, not every day.
Otherwise, Six-fingered Joseph, who was originally stationed here, would have to go to other taverns to make a living.
Tonight.
Sitting at the bar is Diluc Legenfender, the eldest young man of Chenxi Winery.
Since withdrawing from the Knights of the West Wind, this handsome nobleman has spent most of his time sitting at [Angel's Gift] in addition to helping Mr. Cripps handle the family business.
There is also the former chief of staff, Mr. Kaiya, who occasionally comes to help and does a job as a bartender, or he works as a bartender and chats and laughs with the guests who come to drink.
Compared to the taciturn Diluc, the cheerful and humorous Kaia is obviously more popular among drinkers.
The topic that the drinkers talked about most with Kaia was why he and Diluc quit the Knights of the West Wind in the first place.
You must know that Diluc is known as the cavalry captain most likely to win the title of 'Knight of the Morning'.
Kaia also became the Chief of Staff of the Knights of the West Wind at a young age, occupying an important position. Now he has obtained the Eye of God, and is ranked among the top talents among the entire young generation of Mondstadt.
It happened that these two geniuses chose to quit the Knights of the West Wind when Mondstadt was plagued by dragon plagues.
And it was announced in a very high-profile manner.
It’s really puzzling.
Some people said that they were disloyal to Mondstadt, some said that the Knights of the West Wind must have done something to feel sorry for them, and some said that it was secretly inspired by Master Cripps.
In short, there are various versions of rumors.
Whenever faced with this problem, Diluc always responded with silence, while Kaia changed the topic with some sweet words and always avoided talking about it.
Today, [Angel's Gift] has two guests who have not been here for a long time.
These two people are also people that both Diluc and Kaia are very familiar with.
Troy Schneczewicz and Yora Lawrence.
"Yora Lawrence!?"
"Hasn't she already turned her back on Mondstadt?"
"The traitor actually dares to return to Mondstadt? Where is the Knight of the West Wind? Drive her out quickly!!!"
Yula's appearance caused an uproar in the tavern.
If the previous Yora was in Mondstadt just because of her status as a member of the Lawrence family, she would have been made things difficult for her in every possible way.
but now.
The traitor's hat was placed on her head, which made the Mondstadt people hate her even more.
Listening to the noisy shouts in the tavern, Kaiya, who was chatting and laughing with the drinkers just now, suddenly changed his expression. Diluc, who was mixing drinks, ignored the wine glass in his hand and stared at Lin Feng nervously.
However, before they could stop him, Lin Feng had already moved.
He didn't care who opened the mouth, he just shouted lightly: "Shut up!"
His voice is not loud.
However, under the flow of wind elements, this sound sounded like thunder in the ears of the drinkers. The drinkers who were scolding happily immediately covered their ears and bent down in pain, and could no longer curse. .
After drinking and scolding these drinkers, Lin Feng said lightly again: "Get out!"
Hear the word.
The drinkers didn't dare to say anything, so they all ran out holding their heads and crawling on the ground.
[Angel's Gift], which was originally packed, became empty in the blink of an eye.
"The guests are here, why don't you entertain them?"
In the quiet tavern, Lin Feng's voice continued to echo.
Diluc's eyelids twitched, and when he was about to speak, Kaia beat him to it.
He changed his expression from before and said to Lin Feng and Youla with a smile: "It turns out that Mr. Troy and Miss Youla are here. Come on, sit down. You can say whatever you want to drink. I'm treating you today."
"Fire water, dandelion wine."
Lin Feng was not polite. After ordering drinks, he and Youla sat at the bar.
Diluc was still frowning in a daze, making no move.
It was Kaia who stabbed him covertly with her elbow before he reacted and hurriedly poured the wine.
After serving two glasses full of strong drinks, Diluc looked at Yula with a somewhat complicated expression.
Under the watchful eyes of him and Kaia.
Lin Feng picked up the wine glass and drank the fire water in it. After spitting out a breath of wine, he said again: "Come again."
Youla was not as bold as him. She sipped the liquor from her hometown in small sips, with a look of nostalgia in her eyes.
that's all.
Neither of them spoke.
One drank one glass after another, while the other silently missed the taste of his hometown.
This move made Diluc and Kaia confused. They looked at each other, somewhat confused as to what they were going to do.
Fortunately, I didn’t have to wait long.
They knew what Lin Feng was going to do.
He is waiting for someone.
Waiting for someone who is very familiar with Diluc and Kaia.
Sister Rosalia of the Church of the West Wind.
At the same time, she is also Mondstadt's Night Walker, responsible for cleaning up threats to Mondstadt under the night.
"Sister, long time no see."
Lin Feng stood up and said hello.
Yula then stood up and called "big sister".
"Well, long time no see. Let's have a glass of dandelion wine."
The latter sentence was said to Diluc.
Rosalia did not wear a nun's uniform today, but wore casual clothes, and naturally sat next to Lin Feng.
"You two."
Diluc and Kaia were both stunned on the spot by the sound of 'big sister'.
What's the meaning?
Isn’t Troy Shenetzovich a Winterist? Why are you so familiar with Rosalia?
Judging from their titles, their relationship seems to be very unusual.
"Everyone is here."
"Then please allow me to introduce myself again."
Lin Feng took a sip of wine, looked at Diluc and said, "I have a name in Mondstadt, called Albert Sebastian, the former Dark Night Walker of the West Wind Church."
"."
There was silence.
Diluc was confused, and Kaia, who always boasted of his flexible mind, was also confused and had no idea what to say.
Albert Sebastian.
Diluc knew the name very well.
No.
It should be said that he knew the name.
The supreme genius of Mondstadt's ANBU, he has made countless achievements and guarded the peace of Mondstadt in the dark night.
No one has ever seen this genius boy. They only know that he has superb martial arts and amazing intelligence. He is the adopted son trained by the late Cardinal Colson Sebastian.
He was also Diluc's idol.
The former Night Walker was the driving force for Diluc to strive towards the title of Knight of the Dawn, and it was also the main reason why Diluc became the hero of the night now.
But now.
Lin Feng told him that a senior inspector general of Zhi Dong, a villain who had launched several plans against Mondstadt, was actually the Night Walker who had disappeared for many years and was said to have been sacrificed at the hands of people from Zhi Dong?
"Mr. Troy, you are joking."
Kaia swallowed hard and spoke with difficulty.
It's not just Diluc, he is also a little confused right now.
"He's not kidding you."
Rosalia, who was sitting aside, testified on behalf of Lin Feng: "Albert is the most outstanding child of my teacher, bar none. Starting from the age of eight, he dedicated a full ten years to Mondstadt."
"Is he now?"
"snort."
Facing Kaia's question, Rosalia snorted coldly: "My teacher died at the hands of Archbishop Simon."
Another piece of news from Galvatron.
Diluc and Kaia were completely speechless now.
Falga, Grand Master of the Knights of the West Wind, Simon Page, Archbishop of the Church of the West Wind, and Colson Sebastian, Chief Instructor of the Mondstadt ANBU.
These three are known as the mainstay of Mondstadt.
A warrior with outstanding martial arts, a diplomat and internal affairs officer who formulates various strategies, and an intelligence master with an impeccable secret intelligence network.
How could it happen that Colson was killed by Bishop Simon?
If these words were said from Lin Feng's mouth, Diluc and Kaia might not believe it.
But the words came from Rosalia's mouth, and the authenticity suddenly became reliable.
Diluc, who was already extremely dissatisfied with the Knights of the West Wind, moved his lips and didn't know what to say.
Mond.
How many secrets are there that he doesn't know?
Rosalia said this.
Diluc and Kaia also understood why Lin Feng, the former Mondstadt hero, betrayed Mondstadt.
If a Mondstadt killed Cripps, both of them would definitely betray Mondstadt.
"Besides this, I have something else to tell you."
Lin Feng said calmly: "I was also responsible for the attack and layout of Chenxi Winery, including the rebellion of the Lawrence family, the assassination of Cripps, the Mondron disaster, and the death of Simon Page. It's all my doing."
When saying this.
Lin Feng seemed to be talking about some sparse and ordinary things, without any emotion.
This act of openly admitting all the evil deeds hit the hearts of Diluc and Kaia again like a lightning strike. Both of them widened their eyes, and their expressions were surprisingly consistent.
"Why?"
Diluc murmured: "Just because Bishop Simon killed your father? But, but, you also killed Bishop Simon, why would you do such a thing to Mond and our family?"
"Isn't this enough?"
Lin Feng glanced at Diluc and said in a cold tone: "Okay, I'm going to kill Crips Legenfend now, and let me see what you will do."
As soon as these words came out.
Diluc's heart felt like it had fallen into an ice cellar. He was stunned for a long time and could not say a word.
Seeing this, Kaia hurriedly came to smooth things over and said: "Mr. Albert, don't be excited, don't be excited, Diluc is just quick-talking, don't take his words seriously."
"snort."
Lin Feng snorted coldly and continued: "Diluc Legenfend, Kaia Alberich, I came to you today, not to talk nonsense with you. Listen, I have something to do now." I’ll leave it to you.”
"!?"
Diluc and Kaia's expressions froze.
Why does he have such a natural order? Just because he threatens Mondstadt?
However, Kaia still sighed and said: "Mr. Albert, if you tell us, we will definitely help you if we can do it."
"The Lawrence family needs to be cleaned up."
Lin Feng didn't have the slightest scruple to realize that Youla was sitting here and said these words in a majestic manner.
"The Lawrence family?"
Diluc frowned slightly and glanced at Yura, who was silently holding the wine glass.
It stands to reason.
Isn't this Albert the son-in-law of the Lawrence family?
Why clean up the Lawrence family?
Lin Feng over there didn't care what happened to Diluc and Kaia, so he started talking to himself: "I know that you two brothers have not been idle after quitting the Knights. One is trying to be a dark night hero everywhere, and the other is collecting money everywhere. Intelligence wipes the dark night hero’s butt.”
"You two are in the right position now."
"There are some people in the Lawrence family who stick to the old system and are unwilling to accept the kindness of the Knights of the West Wind. This makes me very disappointed with them."
"Hero of the Night, do me a small favor."
"Get rid of these people."
"They should be framed, they should be framed, they should be framed, they can be put in jail, or they can be killed. Anyway, I want the Lawrence family to obey the arrangements of the Knights of the West Wind."
"Understood?"
Lin Feng's words are not cruel.
Just for these words, I don’t know how many people have to pay their lives and freedom for this.
But this was not a decision made by Lin Feng without permission.
It was a decision made after Lin Feng consulted with Youla after she came back from the Lawrence family.
in other words.
This matter was decided jointly by the two of them.
"The elders in the family have been brainwashed too deeply."
"They firmly believe that Lawrence will one day regain its glory."
"They even regard me as the seed of rise, just because I am with you. With you as a son-in-law who holds a high position and is powerful in the winter, the people of Mondstadt are vulnerable."
"There are some among the younger generation who are open-minded and think that the Lawrence family is finished. It is better to just follow the arrangements of the Knights of the West Wind and try to integrate into Mondstadt again."
"But those stubborn old people don't agree with this."
"Forget it if they don't agree with it, they don't allow young people like me to try to work. While eating subsidies from the Knights of the West Wind, they continue to brainwash the children of the family to hate Mondstadt."
"You ask if they are from the Knights of the West Wind?"
"No, they are not. They are old people who have been completely brainwashed a long time ago. They firmly believe that the Lawrence family should be nobles and should rule Mondstadt, even though Mondstadt has begun to show goodwill."
"Well, yes, like my uncle Shubert Lawrence."
"They are hopeless."
"But my peers and children, they still have hope, and they shouldn't let these old and pedantic bastards ruin their future."
These were the exact words Youla said to Lin Feng after she came out of the Lawrence family.
Lin Feng finished listening.
He only said one sentence: "Then there is no need for them to stay in this world."
"Yeah, that's what I thought too."
Yula couldn't bear it, but she still nodded in agreement.
