Honkai Impact 3rd, welcome to the Q&A space.

[Play video below]

Stargazer looked at the captain with a contemptuous smile, "Are you satisfied with this?"

The captain was very angry when he saw this scene. "Satisfied? Are you kidding me?"

(…Why did it end like this? We had already defused all the explosives, so why couldn’t we stop this?)

Stargazing was startled, "...Captain, Captain?"

Captain: "Stargazing...Sir..."

The captain stared at the stars in a daze, tears flowing from his eyes involuntarily.

(I am back on this street from hours ago.)

The laughter of passers-by and the constant shouting of vendors flooded into my ears, and the prosperous scene before my eyes was particularly glaring.

The murderer was hiding in this busy street.

Stargazing was in some pain. "Captain, please let go of your hand first... It hurts..."

The captain then realized that he had been holding Mr. Stargazer's hand so tightly that he even left a red mark.

[Theresa] "It seems that the captain is also an ordinary person. I feel that he has gone a little crazy."

[Funina] "How many people wish there was a pill to make people regret their mistakes, but the captain not only has one, but he has more than one."

[Raiden Mei] "But the captain seems unable to change anything. This is only the fifth time. What happens after that?"

[Otto] "I really don't know whether you are stupid or smart, Captain."

[Bronya] "It seems that Bronya has changed her mind about you, Captain."

[Alisa (Elysian Land)] "Is this the legendary power of love? The relationship between the captain and Kansei gives the captain the motivation to persevere~"

[Under the Moon] "Asshole! Humans are mine! Mine!"

[Stargazing] "I... How could there be love between him and me... Don't talk nonsense..."

[Captain] "Even if not, I will treat every life equally. No matter what, I will definitely create a perfect ending."

[Kiana] "Come on, Captain, I believe in you!"

[Traveler Ying] "Come on, Captain, I believe in you!"

[Paimon] "Come on, Captain, I believe in you!"

[Aliceia (Elysian Land)] "Come on, Captain. I believe in you!"

Video continues...

The captain quickly let go of his hand, "Sorry, I...I didn't mean it."

Stargazing "I know, what happened?"

The captain was erratic. "...I..."

The captain didn't know how to start, and at that time, the captain found Guanxing in the crowd.

But she had already fallen in a pool of blood. She could not hear the captain's voice. She was just breathing hard and urging the captain to hurry up over and over again.

The knife that stabbed Mr. Guanxing fell next to him, and the black blade was covered with blood.

The captain clearly saw the red blood gushing out, and he tried everything he could but still couldn't stop it...

The captain pressed his forehead hard... his brain felt dizzy and painful, and the shocking scarlet color kept lingering before his eyes.

Stargazing "...Captain, are you okay? Do you want to take a rest?"

The captain shook his head. "No, it's not time to rest yet. We must leave here immediately! Mr. Stargazer, follow me quickly..."

Stargazing asked in confusion, "Wait, where are you going?"

The captain had no time to explain to Mr. Stargazer. He just wanted to take Mr. Stargazer away from here as soon as possible and to a safe place.

But... is there anywhere safe?

Stargazing "Captain, has something happened to the Huang Empire again?"

Captain: "We have to get out of here..."

Stargazing "Captain!"

The captain suddenly stopped after hearing this.

Stargazing "Captain, you must be very tired after such a long time."

Captain: “…Hmm?”

Stargazing "You have always been there for me when I was in the most difficult times."

"Whether it's the evil spirits or the reinforcements... you have never been able to say anything, and you have been bearing all the anxiety alone. I know there must be some reason why you can't say it."

"But you don't have to bear it all by yourself. After all, I'm always by your side, bearing everything with you."

"No matter what happens, you can tell me and I will face it with you."

Captain: "It's useless... You won't believe it."

[Xilin] "That is to say, Captain, don't let yourself bear everything all the time, and believe in us!"

[Brownie] "That's right, Captain, you are not alone."

[Rosemary] "We will always be by your side, Captain."

[Captain] "I understand."

[Paimon] "As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers. Why do you always have to shoulder everything by yourself?"

[Diluk] "Did you hear me, Acting Captain? You could have handed those trivial matters over to your subordinates, or let them solve them themselves, but you insisted on going there yourself!"

[Barbara] "I agree with Master Diluc on this matter."

[Qin] "Senior, I will correct it..."

Stargazing "So many things have happened, and I can guess the reasons behind them. Even if you say something absurd, I will accept it."

Captain: "...If I say that I have experienced the following things many times, will you still believe it?"

Stargazing "I believe."

Captain: "Mr. Stargazer, please stop teasing me. This is something that even I find hard to accept, so how can you believe it so easily..."

Stargazing "On the one hand, I had already expected it. On the other hand, it is because of you, Captain, that I choose to believe it."

"Now that things have come to this, Captain, please stop hiding anything. There is indeed danger hidden in the lantern festival in Huangyue City. Could it be that someone has placed explosives?"

Captain: "Actually, Mr. Stargazer is only half right."

"There are too many people here, let's discuss it in a quieter place. Follow me."

The captain pulled Guanxing to a secluded corner, where he could just see what was happening on the street.

Captain: "Mr. Stargazer, please keep an eye on the streets outside."

"Based on last experience, a man wearing black clothes and holding a black umbrella selling lanterns will pass by here in a while."

Stargazing "The lantern seller?"

Captain: "Yes, the craftsman who sells lanterns changed the formula of candles and replaced the candles in the lanterns with stone candles."

Stargazing "Stone candle?! Isn't that something that is very likely to explode..."

Captain: "That's why this special candle has a wick made of ordinary candles on the top and stone candles on the bottom. Only after burning for a period of time will the lantern explode."

"At this time, those lanterns made of stone candles have been sold to the citizens of Huangyue City. Even the lanterns hanging on the Thousand Star Pavilion are mostly made by that craft."

Stargazing "Is he planning to blow up Huangyue City?"

Captain: "Just as Mr. Guanxing expected, there is indeed a hidden danger in the lantern festival in Huangyue City."

"Based on our experience last time, we must extinguish all the lanterns in the city and organize the people to evacuate Huangyue City. Only in this way can we prevent the explosion from happening."

The captain spoke out anyway, even though he didn't know what the consequences would be, but at least it would be better than acting alone.
