As Ying said this, she looked at Ando and said, "Just make it up and see whether I believe it or not." Then she held the letter in front of Ando so that he could see the signature on the envelope clearly. Ying continued to speak while Ando was looking at her in shock.

"The 'pass' you wanted to check was lost by me accidentally. You don't think that I, who was helping the Kanjo Bugyo's daughter, Chisato Hiiragi, deliver letters, would not even have a 'pass' issued by the Kanjo Bugyo, do you?"

When Ying said this, the colleagues who had gathered around and thought they had achievements looked at each other, and withdrew in agreement, thinking, "It would be a hindrance to make enemies with someone who can speak to the eldest lady of the Hiiragi family, and it would affect the official career, so I'd better leave it to that young man Ando."

Ying, who had been keeping an eye on the soldiers' movements, knew after seeing their actions that they agreed with what she said. Thinking of this, Ying prepared to put the letter away.

Just as Ying was about to move, Ando suddenly spoke.

"Wait a minute, I'm not sure about the authenticity of this letter. In order to confirm the authenticity of this letter, please give it to me and I will present it to Lord Kujo Kamajima."

Ying decisively rejected Ando's request.

"That won't work. I promised Ms. Chisato that I would personally hand the letter to Mr. Kujo Kamajui and bring her a reply."

The air was frozen for a moment. Just when Ando was thinking about taking Ying away and locking her up before notifying Kujo Kamajima to visit her, Ying spoke.

"Well, if you are really worried, I will give you a solution. You stay by my side and watch me hand the letter to Mr. Kujo Kamajui in person to prove the authenticity of the letter and what I said."

Ando nodded after hearing this. With Ando's guidance, Ying easily passed through Inazuma Castle and arrived at the gate of Tenryo Bugyofu.

"Stop, this is the Tianling Fengxing Mansion. No one is allowed to enter unless it is an important matter."

Before Ying came forward to explain his purpose, Tongxin Inoue, who was guarding the gate of Tenryo Bugyofu, spoke first. When he saw Ando, ​​who was dressed in Tongxin attire and following closely behind Ying, Inoue couldn't help but frown.

"Are you a newcomer? Didn't we learn this during the training? When you catch a suspect, just send him directly to the town magistrate's office. Why bring him here? Don't bother the Tenryo magistrates with trivial matters."

"No, no."

Ando waved his hand quickly, walked to Inoue's side, and told him the details. After taking a look at Ying who looked calm, Inoue said, "You wait here, I will go and inform Lord Kujo Kamajima." Then he walked towards the Tenryo Bugyo Mansion.

A moment later, Kujo Kamajima, who received the news, came hurriedly.

"I heard you have a handwritten letter from Miss Hiiragi for me?"

"Yes."

Ying nodded and handed the letter to Kujo Kamajima. Just seeing the handwriting on the envelope, Kujo Kamajima nodded excitedly.

"It is indeed Miss Hiiragi's notes..."

Having said that, Kujo Kamajiro couldn't wait to open the letter and read it.

While Kujo Kamajui was reading, Ando heard Kujo Kamajui say that it was Miss Hiiragi's notes. Confirming that Ying was not lying, Ando bowed to Ying, left a message saying "Thank you for your cooperation, please reissue the lost pass as soon as possible" and turned away.

At this time, Kujo Kamajima, who had roughly read the letter, happened to look up. Hearing what Ando said, Kujo Kamajima nodded to Ying.

"Please wait here for a moment, traveler. I have a reply letter for Miss Hiiragi that I need you to take back to me. And please rest assured that I will personally help you get a new pass."

After saying that, Kujo Kamajima hurriedly walked back to the Tenryo Buggyofu with the letter. Ying and Paimon waited at the door of the Tenryo Buggyofu for a while, and then they received Kujo Kamajima's reply to Hiiragi Chisato and the newly issued pass for Quan Inazuma.

"I'd like to trouble the traveler to deliver this letter to Miss Chisato Hiiragi for me."

"No problem, I will definitely deliver it to you as soon as possible."

After agreeing, Ying took Paimeng and asked questions along the way, and finally arrived at the meeting place agreed with Thomas, the door of Mulou Tea House.

As a result, when Ying and Paimeng just arrived at the door of Mulou Tea House and were about to push the door and walk in, a cold voice interrupted their actions.

"I'm sorry, but this place doesn't accommodate ordinary guests. Please leave and find another place."

"We are not ordinary guests, we..."

"I know. Just by looking at the way you two are dressed, I can tell that you two are not ordinary guests who have smuggled in from overseas."

Before Paimeng could finish his explanation, Shao, the female clerk at Mulou Tea House, interrupted Paimeng.

"However, even if you are not ordinary guests, you are not the guests that we at Mulou Teahouse want to entertain, so please go back."

As he said this, Shao made a gesture to Ying and Paimon to ask them to leave.

In response to Shao's actions, Ying handed over the invitation letter left by Thomas.

"We came here because we received an invitation."

Shao took the invitation letter handed over by Ying.

"It is indeed the seal of the company's magistrate. It seems that you are the one that Mr. Thomas wanted to meet..."

As he spoke, he looked Ying up and down and turned his body slightly.

"Welcome to the Mulou Teahouse, a small protected area that the society adheres to."

After entering the Mulou Tea House, Ying and Paimeng looked around but did not see Thomas, who was supposed to meet them at the Mulou Tea House.

"Strange, I can't see Thomas. Could it be that he broke his promise and made us cancel it?"

Paimon's questioning voice had just fallen when Thomas' voice came from the direction of the counter.

"I didn't break my promise. I've been waiting here since I came back from the island."

Ying and Paimon followed the direction of the sound and saw a big yellow dog squatting there. Thomas's voice was still continuing.

"When I received the news that you were being taken to the Tianling Fengxing Mansion by your fellow officers, I was so panicked that I almost ran to the Tianling Fengxing Office to rescue you."

Thomas said this and walked out from behind the counter.

"I have to sigh, you are indeed the legendary traveler."

Thomas said this with some emotion while clapping.

"It's good enough that you were able to sneak past the guards on an unfamiliar island and reach Narukami Island in such a short time. But you were able to get in touch with the big shots of the Kanjo Bugyo and Tenryo Bugyo, and easily obtained the pass to the entire Inazuma. That's amazing."

Hearing Thomas say this, Ying realized that this meant that Thomas in front of him knew everything about her actions in Inazuma, so she narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Thomas with a hint of scrutiny.

After noticing Ying's wariness towards him, Thomas, knowing that he had spoken inappropriately due to his emotion, quickly spoke up to try to make amends.

"I apologize for all the 'tests' I put you through before. Your abilities are even greater than I thought. You are indeed the person that Miss Kamisato has been waiting for, someone who possesses the power to change the situation."
