Menma and Hashirama, what happened in Teyvat

"Hmm?" The two turned around and looked at Kaia who had come over at some point. "Captain of the Cavalry, what can I do for you?"

"Oh, that's it..." Kaiya came over and said with a smile. However, unlike the professional fake smile he always had on his face, this time his smile was obviously sincere, even though this was actually the first time the two of them officially met Kaiya.

"First of all, I need to express my sincerest gratitude to you two, but it has nothing to do with the matter of the Wind Dragon." At this point, Kaeya's expression and tone suddenly became solemn. "I have heard a lot of things from my father. He was able to return to the world thanks to your help. Diluk and I really don't know how to repay you for this kindness."

"Nothing, this is just a 'deal' between us and Master Diluk, but the content of the deal is actually Mr. Cripps, and the friendship between the two of us and the Dawn Winery." Menma waved his hand and said, "Since this is equally important to Mr. Kaeya, let's just treat this as a 'deal' about friendship."

"Haha, you are indeed a hero from another world. Even your way of speaking is so refreshing."

After straightening his expression, Kaia continued, "Secondly, I need to apologize to you two, or to be more precise, to Mr. Uzumaki."

When Menma heard the word "apology", he immediately guessed what Kaiya was going to say next, so he said before Kaiya could open his mouth: "It's okay. If you can look at us without tinted glasses, then we won't mind too much. And I know that Mr. Kaiya was doing it because of your duty at the time, and you didn't do anything too extreme like she did, so you don't need to apologize to me."

The three of them all knew who the "she" in Menma's words was referring to, so they tacitly agreed not to continue talking about this topic.

"Before coming here, I was afraid that you two would be arrogant and difficult to approach because of your powerful strength. I never thought that you two are such gentle people."

"Strong people are not always like this, and I look down on those strong people." Menma simply agreed to the flattery implied in Kaeya's words, "I actually always believe in the saying 'more friends, more paths'. The arrogance of the aloof people you mentioned is actually self-destructive to a certain extent in my opinion."

"I feel relieved with your words." Kaia stretched out his right hand. "Then let's formally introduce each other: Kaia Alberich, cavalry captain of the Knights of Favonius in Mondstadt."

"Uzumaki Menma, a traveler from another world." Menma stretched out his right hand to shake hands with Kaeya, and used his left hand to take off his mask to reveal his true face. "Of course, for now, I can also be considered a friend of all Mondstadt."

"Senju Hashirama, I am also a traveler from another world, and your friend." After shaking hands with Menma, Kaeya also extended his hand to Hashirama. Hashirama naturally would not refuse Kaeya's face, and shook hands with him enthusiastically.

Although Hashirama's communication skills are not very good and his understanding of this world is far from enough, when he encounters people or things, Menma usually goes forward to communicate while he just stands nearby and watches, but this certainly does not mean that he knows nothing.

After the formal introduction and the politeness, Kaia got down to business. "Just now, Captain Jean told you two that the Fatui may cause trouble for you. Moreover, because of the disappearance of Fatui in the city a few days ago, they may make a fuss about it."

"Oh?" Hearing this, Menma suddenly became a little interested.

"I know that this was actually done by you, Mr. Uzumaki." Kaeya looked at Menma and said, "After all, although you and the two Fatui were in a remote place at the time, I happened to pass by there and saw almost the whole process."

"Yes, it was me." Menma was not surprised by this result. After all, Kaeya was a Mondstadt street stalker who was always walking around the city, so he would hear or see any information with his own eyes.

"Mr. Uzumaki, could you tell me what the situation of the two Fatui is now?" Although Kaeya asked this, when he thought about the fact that Menma had slaughtered an entire team of Fatui before, he felt that these two people were most likely dead.

Menma's answer was actually pretty much the same: "One of the two had never committed murder before, so I kept him as a servant in the guest room I was renting. Even though I didn't kill him, I wouldn't hand him over. After all, you can't spit out something you've eaten. As for the other person...

What do you think the price was for summoning Mr. Cripps back to the world in this form?"

"I see..." After hearing Menma's answer, Kaia rested his chin on his hand and thought for a while, "If both of them are alive, when the Fatui take advantage of this, you can release them and give them a good slap in the face. Anyway, I believe you are capable of preventing them from leaking the secret.

But now one person is dead, and you don't intend to hand over the other one, so... you will have to face the attack of the Fatui."

"I never worry about that. On the contrary, I look forward to their coming." Menma's face was full of confidence. "And by that time, it will become a personal grudge between us and the Fatui. As the captain of the cavalry, you should know what I mean."

"Of course." Kaia also smiled like an old fox. "Even if there were patrolling Knights of Favonius nearby at that time, they wouldn't be able to see anything."

After arguing with Kaia about this matter for a while, Kaia took out a stack of information and handed it to Menma.

"This is?"

"Oh, this is the deployment information of some of the Fatui's teams or camps outside the city. Unless they can make a large-scale transfer in a very short time, the accuracy can be guaranteed." Kaia introduced, "Of course, I just compiled it because I didn't want to be too bored, but it is definitely not for any special purpose."

"Understood." Hearing Kaeya's typical conspirator's words, Menma nodded in agreement and said, "Then I'll take these."

"Of course, just take it. Then, I'll leave this matter to you two."

"no problem."

After saying goodbye to Kaeya, the two returned to the room of [Flowing Wind Embrace] and finally ate the breakfast that had been placed in the Shenwei space and had not been eaten due to various delays. Although the food had inevitably become a little cold after such a long time, it was better than not having any food at all.

Afterwards, the two of them began their daily lives in Mondstadt. After all, the recent major events were now over, and it was time to return to peace for a while.

Goethe Hotel, in the most luxurious room on the top floor——

"Sir, I am incompetent and have not been able to find out much information about those two people. The only thing I know is that they seemed to have just arrived in Mondstadt two days ago. They have never appeared in Mondstadt before. This is also one of the reasons why our investigation is difficult."

"Wouldn't you go to their place of residence to inquire about the news? I don't believe they don't have a place to live in the city."

"Sir, I have tried this method before, but the people we sent out to investigate... have all lost contact. No one has come back to report. I'm afraid they have all..."

"Oh, you can't even do such a small thing, and you've got so many people involved. What use do I have for you?"

"My Lord, calm down..."

"Instead of wasting time here, you might as well think about how to continue to gather intelligence on them. If you don't get any useful intelligence, then you don't have to come back."

"Yes... Then, I will..."

"Wait, have you found the two people who left the city and never came back?"

"Not yet. They are like they have disappeared from the face of the earth and cannot be found anywhere. Although many people saw them leave the city, including our people, they lost all clues after they left the city. Our people have no idea where to start the investigation."

"If we can't find out, then there's no need to investigate. Anyway, those two guys who were more trouble than help must have died somewhere. I remember that they left the city on the day they disappeared, and they came back very late, right?"

"Yes."

"In that case, do I need to teach you what to do next?"

"I understand, my subordinate will do it now."

"Hmph, I hope your efficiency can match your big mouth."
