308 Keqing discovered it
That night.
Keqing took away a Pikachu from the elf shop. This was not something she took lightly.
The store manager asked her to do something to help this Pikachu find a new owner.
Who allowed himself to be a Seven Star? As a Seven Star, he had to solve problems for the people of Liyue.
She has responsibilities and missions that she cannot shirk.
If she refused, she would be slapping herself in the face.
She absolutely wouldn't accept it.
I had no choice but to come back with this Pikachu.
But, having said that, this Pikachu is simply the king of cute pets.
Walking on the road, the rate of turning heads is extremely high.
In daily life, walking in the streets and alleys to check on people's sentiments is nothing new.
It is commonplace for everyone.
But with the addition of Pikachu, everyone's attention was attracted.
It was as if the existence of a Pikachu was more eye-catching than her Seven Stars.
In order to find out what food Pikachu likes to eat, she bought a few apples at the fruit stand.
"That's Master Keqing..."
"What's that next to her?"
"Looks like a rat."
"Can you also have lightning?"
"I heard that Qian Yanjun of the General Affairs Department took a dog on business trips, and his work efficiency improved."
"I've also heard that the dog's name is Katie. It's said that it helped a lot. It was the dog that found Hua Chu and Jian Qiu based on their scent."
"..."
Ke Qing has long been used to the comments from others, and Qixing's every move will always cause waves in Liyue no matter what time it is.
Let’s not talk about the distant ones, let’s talk about Ningguang. Once any laws are changed, the merchants of Feiyunpo will flock to it, and they will all rush to know about it.
In the peaceful and stable Liyue, the General Affairs Department is closest to them and helps them handle the most daily troublesome matters.
Every move of the General Affairs Department is equally eye-catching.
Keqing was about to go home when she saw several Qianyan soldiers running over in various shapes next to her.
She immediately stopped one of them, "Xiang Ming, what happened?"
The Qianyanjun named Xiang Ming looked back, immediately clasped his fists and said respectfully, "Sir Keqing, a fire just broke out on Chihu Rock for no reason, and Hongyi met him."
Ke Qing frowned. That area faced the sea breeze, and the sea breeze was humid. How could there be a fire for no reason?
It must be man-made.
"How's it going?"
"This..." Xiang Ming hesitated and couldn't answer for a while.
"What's the unspeakable secret?" Ke Qing asked solemnly.
"Please forgive me for being abrupt. It is said that Hongyi encountered an incredible incident." Xiang Ming knew that Keqing had never respected the emperor, and was not convinced by the gods and ghosts.
If he fully disclosed the matter, he would only be scolded by Ke Qing.
But now, when he was questioned by Ke Qing face to face, he could only tell the truth.
"You said that the ghost Hongyi encountered on Chihu Rock was suspected to be from Wuwangpo?" Ke Qing obviously couldn't accept this conclusion.
Wuwangpo is at least dozens of miles away from Chihuyan, and the ghosts there will go to the popular places in Liyue without any problems.
Moreover, there is Yujingtai under Chihuyan, where the king of the rock is enshrined.
Those so-called monsters and demons, no matter how courageous they are, they wouldn’t dare to cause trouble in that area, right?
Xiang Ming said respectfully, "My subordinates are just following the announcement. The details need to be investigated by the site and Hongyi himself."
Keqing thought for a moment, even though it was already off work time, and it was getting late.
At this time, it is the closest to the time of the crime. If it were tomorrow, the clues might be lost.
Keqing ordered, "Lead the way and have a look at Chihu Rock."
"Yes." Xiang Ming led the way, taking Ke Qing with him, and in a short time, they were on the Tiger Rock.
The moon is sinking to the west, and the stars are vast.
Keqing glanced at the crime scene. In addition to a large mark burned by the flames, there were also many footprints.
If you look closely, you will see that the footprints are large and small. Judging by the arc lighting of your fingertips, you can see that there are three pairs of human footprints.
Two pairs are small and one pair is larger. They should be two children and one adult.
Among other things, she found impressions that resembled duck claws.
One adult, two children, and a duck. What kind of configuration is this?
Cooking roast duck on Huyan?
But there were no traces of cooking utensils nearby. Except for a large area of charred weed ashes, everything was normal.
Who is so boring? This is the second time that he has chosen this place to cause trouble.
But think about it carefully.
Hongyi met a ghost?
Could it be a ghost causing trouble?
Even thinking about it is impossible.
She immediately rejected this idea.
"Master Keqing, what should we do?" Xiang Ming investigated for a long time and couldn't find any useful clues.
Keqing opened her elemental vision to see if there was any elemental power nearby. Sure enough, this flame was no ordinary flame.
Elemental energy remains on it.
She began to reason. In Liyue, there was the eye of the fire elemental god, Hutao from the Purity Hall, Xiangling from the Wanmin Hall, Xin Yan who was on tour, and Yan Fei, the legal expert.
The only ones that can appear in pairs are Hutao and Xiangling, or Xiangling and Yanfei.
After all, Xin Yan is on tour and is currently not in Liyue.
Yan Fei is busy dealing with legal matters and cannot do such boring things.
The only ones left are walnuts and Xiangling.
Combined with their ages, Keqing became even more convinced of her reasoning.
By the way, the store manager said before that after Condensation, someone else came to buy the elves. As long as he goes back and checks, he will know who the culprit is.
"Go back first. I already have an idea about this matter." Keqing did not stay at the scene for a while and went home directly from the teacher.
After a busy day, she went home, washed herself, and lay quietly on a comfortable and elegant bench.
Pikachu lay obediently at her feet, not daring to move without her instructions.
At this time, the door was knocked.
"Miss."
"Come in."
A middle-aged nanny pushed open the door and came in, holding a freshly cut apple in her hand, "Aqing, eat some fruit."
"Thank you." Keqing took the plate from the nanny's hand. The portion was cut according to her usual food intake, only one.
She remembered that she had just bought several apples at the stall, "Mom Zhang, please bring in another apple. Just wash it clean. No need to cut it."
"Ok."
After a while, Zhang Ma washed the apples, brought them in, and then left.
Keqing curiously picked up a small piece and brought it to Pikachu's mouth, "Try it."
"Pickup?"
Pikachu rubbed his round belly. He had just finished a bowl of sweet red bean soup, followed Keqing and ran up to Huyan to eat, and then ran back home.
I'm hungry again.
It saw Shi Qing's expression at this moment, with a gentle smile, and it was clearly two different faces from the cold and solemn one outside.
It was suddenly confused and scratched its scalp.
"It's sour and sweet." Keqing smiled kindly.
Seeing her like this, Pikachu didn't think much, took a bite, and it really tasted right, so it started to eat happily.
Seeing Pikachu eating happily, Keqing chuckled and said, "How about it? It tastes better than sweet red bean soup, right?"
"Pickup pickup!"
Pikachu nodded knowingly and smiled at Keqing.
