"Even if I don't have the Eye of God, as long as I can use elemental power, I can have a space to store my luggage just like people with the Eye of God? It's an enviable ability."

Looking at Ying's actions, Gao Muming spoke with some envy.

"However, Ying, you should put away your weapons first. Two treasure-stealing groups that are not very strong and do not have the Eye of God will make the Fatui who see us relax their vigilance, which will be beneficial to our surprise attack."

After hearing what Gao Muming said, Ying nodded and put the sword back.

When Gao Muming and Ying went up the stairs to a place where they could see the second floor, they saw a member of the Fatui holding a sword, pacing back and forth and muttering to himself.

"Those guys in the advance team only know how to bully a civilian like me, and they even assigned me to keep watch. There's no movement down there, so the invading monsters must have been killed by the mechanism, right? Should I go down and take a look? But if I run into a monster right after I get downstairs, it would be terrible. I'm still young and don't want to die."

Seeing that the Fatui didn't notice him and others, Gao Muming made a gesture to Ying and Paimon, and Ying and Paimon nodded in understanding.

Taking advantage of the moment when the Fatui turned their heads, Gao Muming came lightly behind the Fatui, patted his shoulder with one hand, and spoke to comfort him.

"Don't worry, there are no monsters down there. We just cleaned it up."

The Fatui, who were unable to react for a moment, responded subconsciously after hearing what Takagi Akira said.

"That's right, that's great."

Then the Fatui reacted and turned around to ask loudly.

"you……"

Before he could finish his words, Gao Muming covered his mouth with his hands and pushed him to the ground. Then Gao Muming put his head close to the Fatui's ears and spoke with a hint of intimacy.

"Family member, please don't yell and disturb others. We have some questions to ask you. Could you please cooperate with us? If you are willing, just nod and I will let go of your hand."

The Fatui tried to struggle with all his might, but a sword was stuck into the ground right in front of his eyes. The Fatui couldn't help swallowing, and then began to nod his head vigorously.

Takagi Akira smiled and nodded at Ying who was inserting the sword into the ground, then released his hand that was covering the mouths of the Fools.

After being released by Takagi Akira, the Fatui spoke immediately.

"Please feel free to ask any questions you have. I will answer all questions I have. Please spare my life. I will not shout, so can this lady take back the sword?"

"It's not two, it's three."

Hearing that he was not counted, Paimon spoke somewhat unhappily.

The fools quickly and obediently changed their words.

"Please feel free to ask any questions you may have."

Gao Muming asked.

"When we were scouting Mondstadt yesterday, we heard about a big event. Someone stole the Sky Harp. Recently, due to the dragon disaster, other people in the surrounding area took advantage of the shrinking strength of the Knights of Favonius to sneak into the ruins and secret realms that were once guarded to make a fortune."

"After thinking about it, the only ones who can do such a big thing are you friends from Solstice. After all, it is Mondstadt's treasure. If you just take it away like this, how can we have the face to stay in Teyvat in the future? So we come here to try our luck."

"You should be able to give us a happy answer, right?"

"that……"

Upon hearing that Takagi Akira was just trying his luck, the Fatui tried to confuse him.

"Think carefully before answering. If the answer makes me unhappy, I can't guarantee your safety, your family."

Takagi Akira pulled out a dagger and tapped the Fatui's face.

"Don't say you don't know. I visited several of my family members from Winter Solstice in Mondstadt. Otherwise, how could I find this place so easily?"

"Put... put the dagger... away. The Sky Harp is indeed here, but it is locked in the deepest part. The key to the deepest part is in the hands of the advance team, but I don't know who it is."

"Are there any traps behind this?"

"Probably not. I have been living in this secret place for a long time. I have walked back and forth many times and have not found any traps."

"I see. Thank you very much for the information you provided."

Just as Gao Muming raised his hand to knock the man out, the Fatui suddenly said weakly.

"Well... I have a request. Our Fatui's executive officer, the Lady, is in Mondstadt right now. When she finds you and captures you and tortures you, can you please not betray me?"

"Don't worry, you can't catch us."

As Takagi Akira said this, he knocked the man unconscious with a knife strike.

"Ying, we have to move faster. The Fatui's executive officers are all very troublesome people."

"Ah."

Then the two of them rushed forward along the road quickly. They didn't encounter anyone along the way, which made people think it was a trap. Paimeng, who was following behind them, had the leisure to chat.

"By the way, 'Madam' is a strange name."

Gao Muming also had time to give some general knowledge to Paimon and Ying.

"I don't know much. 'Madam' is the code name of the eighth of the eleven Fatui executive officers. As the pinnacle of the Solstice Violence Agency, each executive officer is incredibly powerful."

"Let's not talk about what's going on in secret. Just the information circulating among the treasure-stealing group shows that the record of those executive officers is terrifying. If possible, I don't want to meet them."

After a while, Gao Muming and Ying arrived at the place where the Fatui lived and rested in the secret realm.

"It looks like they are all sleeping in their respective rooms. Ying, this is for you. We can search more efficiently if we split up."

As he spoke, Gao Muming handed Ying one or two bulging bags.

"what is this?"

Ying opened it and took a look. The bag was filled with powder, and she asked curiously.

Gao Muming answered with a smile in the corner of his eyes.

"You mean this? It's a must-have medicine for home and travel murder and arson. It's the powder of a kind of mushroom in Xumi that can make people fall asleep. Once a certain amount is inhaled, they will fall asleep in a short while. It's often used to make anesthetic drugs."

"I'll leave the two rooms over there to you. I'll search this side."

After the explanation, Gao Muming immediately began searching for the key.

Watching Gao Muming leave, Ying looked at the powder in her hand and was stunned for a moment. When she heard what Gao Muming said, Paimeng was shocked and stared at the bag in Ying's hand with wide eyes.

"I never thought he would carry such a dangerous thing. But it is indeed very helpful in the current situation. It can avoid unnecessary fighting."

Hearing Paimon's words, Ying nodded in agreement, then walked towards the room she wanted to search.
