Chapter 1017 Jingfu Harbor
The conversation between Bai Luo and Coral Gong Xinhai lasted until early morning.
Bai Luo himself was also a little surprised, because the other party rarely talked to him so actively.
The most important thing is that when the other party talked to him, he didn't talk too much about serious topics, but asked him more about daily trivial matters.
It's like... I'm going out of my way to get to know him.
This gave him the feeling that the sun was coming out of the west, which was so weird.
Shortly after Coral Palace Xinhai left, the fools responsible for preparing the ship also came back.
After a night of preparation, the problems with the ship have been solved and they can set off at any time.
Bai Luo knew that with Rosalin's current physical condition, she could not delay even a single second, so he looked at the island behind him and the Inazuma City in the distance, waved his hand, and gave his order.
"Let's go to Mondstadt!"
...
This journey was very fast. In order to rush for time, Bai Luo specially asked his men to unload all the cargo on the ship. Except for the necessary food and fresh water, he did not carry anything extra.
So the time they arrived in Mondstadt was half faster than expected.
This time the ship did not go to a small port like before, but came to the largest port in Mondstadt - Jingfu Port.
At first, no one paid much attention to this merchant ship flying the Solstice flag, because there were several other similar ships parked in the port.
However, when the soldiers from the Foolish Army filed out, the expressions of the people present suddenly changed.
Ordinary winter merchants do occasionally hire fools as bodyguards, but they are basically ordinary soldiers.
But this time, almost everyone who got off the merchant ship was the elite of the Fools, and even the shadow of the debt processor could be seen.
This means that the people on this ship are not simple.
"It's been a long time since I've been here."
With Bai Luo's support, Rosalin walked out of the cabin. She looked at the free land in front of her and sighed from her heart.
This time, she no longer returned to Mondstadt as [Lady], the executive of the Fools, but as a girl named Rosalind.
"Do you remember where Rustam is buried?"
Looking at Rosalin who covered her face with a veil, Bai Luo asked softly.
Because of the rapid loss of vitality, Rosalin's skin was no longer as bright and bright as before, but began to become dull and saggy.
After a few days at sea, she looked as if she had aged dozens of years.
"When he died, I was still studying abroad. I don't know where he was buried..."
After sighing, Rosalin replied.
She was too paranoid at that time, and she turned into a witch because of this incident, so she didn't even think about going to inquire about it.
"I see."
After looking at the fearful looks of the people around him, Bai Luo helped Rosalin and stepped off the ship.
Just as they got off the boat, a group of knights wearing uniforms of the Knights of the West Wind hurried over.
Obviously, they have recognized Bai Luo's identity.
That's right, in order to ensure that Bai Luo was sent away, Qin mobilized many knights and personally sent him to the stone gate in Liyue.
The knights who came here are those who were in the team at the beginning.
The leading man stepped forward, performed a knight's salute, and then spoke.
"Your Excellency, instructor, I don't know why you came to Jingfu Port? If you need help, please feel free to ask."
Although this man was wearing a suit of armor and carrying a Zephyr Sword, he actually gave the impression that he was more like a civil servant and not very good at fighting.
"Don't worry, this visit is a personal act of mine, not for diplomatic matters. I have a message for you, Captain Qin. I will visit you as my friend Bai Luo in the next few days."
Bai Luo has no intention of hiding his itinerary. Even if no one from the Knights comes to visit, he will take the initiative to send someone to the Knights to inform him that he will come to visit.
In any case, Qin, who is from Mondstadt, must know where Rustam is buried.
"Yes, I will definitely bring you the words. I have sent people to prepare a place for you, the instructor. Please come with me."
After bowing again, the leader made a gesture of invitation.
It seemed that he was preparing to protect the place where Bai Luo and his party were staying, but in fact it was also surveillance in disguise.
The fools are not honest to begin with, and there is also Bai Luo in the team. Such a combination... no matter which country they are placed in, the superiors will not let go.
Maybe even the gods can be alarmed.
"Accommodation is not necessary. Our time is very precious. If possible... I wonder if you can arrange a carriage? This friend of mine may not be suitable for long distances."
Bai Luo's words obviously disrupted the opponent's rhythm.
He looked at Bai Luo and the strange-looking Rosalin next to him, and gave his answer after thinking for a moment.
"Okay, I'll have someone prepare it right now. Please give us some time."
While he was preparing the carriage, a letter had been delivered from Jingfu Port to Mondstadt.
...
The warm sunlight passed through the tall floor-to-ceiling windows and shone on the desk covered with documents.
The violinist held a quill in his hand and was carefully making instructions on the documents.
"The Wind Flower Festival is coming, I hope nothing will go wrong."
Feeling the warm feeling of the sun shining on her body, Qin temporarily put down the pen in her hand, stretched out beautifully, and said aloud.
Originally, floor-to-ceiling windows were rarely used in the previous Knights Building. After being inadvertently destroyed and rebuilt by Tevalin, most of the windows were changed to this special floor-to-ceiling window.
Qin really likes this style, it feels great when working.
I have been busy for so long, just want to enjoy it on the day of the Wind Flower Festival.
But thinking of the joyful atmosphere of the festival, Qin's originally slightly tired face gained a smile.
I haven't been this peaceful for a long time.
only hope......
"Tuk-tuk-tuk..."
Before she completely lowered her stretched hand, there was some kind of knocking sound behind her.
Looking back, she saw a pigeon standing on the railing specially set up outside the floor-to-ceiling window, pecking at the window.
After seeing the pigeon, Qin's expression changed slightly.
The Knights do have dedicated carrier pigeons, but these carrier pigeons are rarely used and are only used under special circumstances.
Moreover, it can be seen from the mark on the pigeon's feet that this pigeon should have flown from Jingfu Port.
What happened over there?
Opening the window, the pigeon flew in obediently, letting Qin take out the letter from its feet.
After opening the letter and seeing the contents, Qin's original anxious expression gradually disappeared and was replaced by a burst of despair.
