Wendy tentatively shook her legs in the air, and said pitifully to Qin. The two of them were taken out of the tavern by Captain Qin like they were carrying chickens.
"Amber lives in the dormitory on the second floor of the Knights. You should think carefully about what to say to her."
Qin first put down Wendy, and then put Famas in Wendy's arms.
Just when Wendy's feet landed, a strong wind floated past, raising a large cloud of dark clouds, making the city of Mondstadt, which was already at dusk, even darker.
"Huh? Is it going to rain?"
Qin looked up at the sky. Because of Tevalin, the weather in Mondstadt was becoming more and more strange.
"You did this? Barbatos?"
Famas, who was in Wendy's arms, jumped on Wendy's head and asked softly.
"Hey, if it rains heavily, we don't have to apologize now."
Wendy whispered to Famas.
As if she had guessed what they were thinking, Qin turned her gaze from the sky to the smiling Wendy.
“I’m going even if it’s raining!”
————————————————
"Come on, come on! It's so late, is there anything important?"
Ten minutes later, the sky had completely darkened. On the second floor of the headquarters of the Knights of the West Wind, Qin and Wendy, who were all wet, stood at the door of Amber's dormitory like drowned rats.
Di's hat, so he was unharmed.
Even though it was late at night, there was still no trace of depression or displeasure in the voice coming from the other side of the door.
After vaguely hearing the knock on the door, the detective knight Amberdang, who was disturbed by the thunderstorm and ghostly weather outside the window, was even alert and did not let the people outside the door wait for more than ten seconds. He was already active as usual.
The posture of sunshine appears in front of the door.
Amber is always so energetic and sensitive, but judging from the tears on his face, he still feels guilty for losing the Eye of God when no one is around.
"Eh!? It's Captain Qin and... a bard. Why are they all soaked like this? Come in quickly!"
When Amber opened the door and saw the knocker, her expression changed from serious to relaxed, and then she became nervous and at a loss.
"Captain, have you found any clues about the Eye of God? I have recovered, and I can continue to work even without the Eye of God..."
"No, here."
Qin shook her hair coolly and took out the Eye of God that originally belonged to Amber from her pocket. The tight-fitting clothes were stained with moisture and stuck to her skin, clearly outlining the lines of her body.
Amber, who is also a woman, couldn't help but feel her heart beating.
"Captain Qin, it's so big..."
Being too focused on Qin's impressive figure, Amber didn't even notice her divine eyes on Qin's hand.
"Don't be so weird about your focus, Amber."
Qin said helplessly, then took the Eye of God and waved it in front of Amber's eyes.
"My eye of God!"
Seeing the familiar sword feather, a feeling of blood connection came to his heart. Amber shouted excitedly and took the Eye of God from Qin.
"Thank you, Captain Qin, where did you find this?"
Amber held the lost Eye of God and checked it over and over several times. After confirming that it was his lost Eye of God, he hung it carefully on his waist, and then touched it uneasily to make sure it was already on his waist.
Hang firmly.
"Let them explain it to you and let me borrow your bathroom, Amber."
Qin casually took the towel and temporary pajamas handed by Amber and walked into the bathroom of the dormitory.
Famas is on Wendy's head, quietly emitting the power of the fire element, helping Wendy evaporate the water droplets on her body.
Wendy obediently put her hands between her legs, her body was constantly exuding white water vapor, and her strands of hair that were soaked by the rain gradually became fluffy.
"Ahem, Miss Amber, it's like this..."
Feeling the warmth coming from her body, Wendy relaxed a little and began to explain why she wanted to steal the God's Eye.
"So...in order to recover Famas, more eyes of God are needed, but..."
Wendy stood up and finally concluded: "We're sorry for the trouble we caused you!"
Famas also jumped up and waved his little hands a few times.
After listening to the explanations of the two, Amber smiled tenderly, skillfully used the power of the Eye of God, and easily lit the fireplace to keep the two of them warm, and then walked to the table, planning to prepare some hot drinks.
"It's okay, I understand."
Amber took out four cups and whispered.
"Amber, you are truly the most considerate little angel I have ever seen!"
Wendy danced and told Amber that Qin happened to come out of the bathroom in her pajamas after taking a shower.
"It seems that you have been forgiven by Amber?"
Staring at the busy red figure, Qin sat back on the sofa, casually flipping the hair behind her back and putting it on her shoulders.
Amber took the tray and brought four cups of warm milk, and handed them to Qin, Wendy and Famas in turn.
"Yes."
Wendy took the warm milk, grinned, and said to Qin.
"Hmm...are the people in the portrait Amber's relatives?"
After taking a sip of milk, Famas suddenly saw a portrait on the wall of Amber's living room. It was a middle-aged man with a beard and a doting look in his eyes, and a photo of Amber who looked like he was a child.
.
"Yes, that is my most reliable grandfather. How about I tell you his story..."
The sound of burning charcoal crackled. On this sleepless rainy night, several people sat around the sofa, and Amber began to share the story of her proud grandfather.
Amber's grandfather was a mercenary commander from Liyue Port, responsible for protecting a caravan across the continent. During a certain escort mission, the caravan was violently attacked by a group of monsters. Only his grandfather managed to escape and was killed by Xifeng.
Rescued by a doctor affiliated with the Knights.
My grandfather returned home shamelessly and resolutely joined the Knights of the West Wind in order to repay the doctor for saving his life.
In the Knights, my grandfather single-handedly established the Scout Knight Squad, personally trained and led them to perform missions.
Soon after, he also met the person he loved and started a family in this strange land.
But one day a long time later, Amber's grandfather left the knight's coat of arms and sword with the Knights, and left without leaving a message to anyone.
After my grandfather left, the scout knight team that relied too much on him lost its backbone and became unorganized and slow.
After several fruitless missions, the Scout Knight's status became increasingly marginalized. Although the team retained its organizational structure, it existed in name only.
The knights either transferred to other departments or retired and returned home. The [Reconnaissance Knight Team] was eventually so sparse that it was unable to complete daily patrol tasks.
What's more serious is that some people regard grandfather's departure as defection, which undoubtedly makes it worse and makes it even more difficult for the remaining scout knights.
"It wasn't until the appearance of the flaming red knight Amber that the team of detective knights became revitalized again."
Wendy hugged Famas, who was still drying clothes, and praised Amber, who had been working hard to protect Mondstadt.
"No, little poet, I just did my job."
Amber, who was wearing light red pajamas, squinted her eyes and enjoyed Wendy's praise. Her upper body was rocking back and forth on the sofa, looking quite happy.
"We will keep an eye out for news about Grandpa Amber!"
The flames in the fireplace are getting dimmer.
The four of them chatted until very late.
