Kong's attempt to steal the Sky Harp failed at the critical moment and was snatched away by the Firefly Sorcerer who had been ambushed by the Fatui.

To make matters worse, he alerted the church guards.

While fleeing, Kong caught a glimpse of the Dei Cafe, which was still brightly lit, so he rushed in with Paimon without hesitation.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Lin Yide playing chess with a young man with a dark complexion. There were only black and white chess pieces on the chessboard, facing each other quietly.

"Boss Dei, the church guards are chasing us. Do you have a place to hide?" Kong asked anxiously.

Lin Yide remained calm and just waved his hand gently, "Don't worry, they won't find this place." After that, he immersed himself in the chess game again.

There was an indescribable soothing power in his words, which instantly made Kong feel at ease.

Sure enough, things happened just as Lin Yide said. When the church guards passed by the coffee shop, they had no intention of going in to search, and even deliberately took a detour to avoid it.

Seeing this scene, Kong finally breathed a sigh of relief, as if a huge weight had fallen from his heart.

At this time, Lin Yide connected five black pieces on the chessboard, declaring his victory.

Kaiya on the opposite side showed a depressed expression and threw the white pieces in his hand casually on the chessboard. "Such a simple chess game, I didn't even win a single game in the whole night."

"You can go play against that guy Lei Dapao, you are guaranteed to win." Lin Yide said with a smile.

Kaiya curled his lips, looking uninterested, "Beat him? That's really not challenging at all. It feels like any normal person can beat him."

Lin Yide suggested to Kong: "Kong, are you interested in playing a few games of chess with Kaia? The rules are simple. As long as five chess pieces are in a line, you win."

After hearing this, Kong's eyes flashed with a gleam of eagerness to try.

Paimon was also watching with great interest. For her, this was the first time she had seen such a simple yet challenging board game on the continent of Teyvat.

Lin Yide stood up and gave his seat to Kong.

Kong quickly mastered the essence of Gobang. Although he lost quickly in the first few games, his chess skills became more and more sophisticated as he became more familiar with Gobang.

In the end, he actually won a game against Kaia.

During the entire game, Lin Yide was always observing quietly from the side.

He keenly discovered that although Sora did not seem to be particularly intelligent, he actually had very strong learning and thinking abilities, and was able to defeat Kaeya, who had an extremely high IQ, in a short period of time.

He is worthy of being the protagonist of the world!

Based on this discovery, Lin Yide decided to adjust his strategy accordingly.

"I'm not going to play anymore!" After losing another game of chess, Kaia became even more depressed. "Traveler, you're also a monster!"

Kong scratched his head a little embarrassedly and said modestly: "It's just good luck!"

Lin Yide smiled and continued, "Being able to defeat our former cavalry captain of the Knights of Favonius is by no means just luck."

Kong was very surprised, as he had never expected that the casual Kaia in front of him had such a distinguished past.

Kaiya waved his hand nonchalantly, "Don't mention my previous identity. It's not something worth bragging about."

Then, Lin Yide turned to Kong and his tone became serious, "Kong, what happened?"

Sora recounted in detail how he stole the Sky Harp.

After hearing this, Lin Yide fell into deep thought, "If my guess is correct, it should be the Fatui who snatched the Sky Harp at the critical moment!"

"The Fatui?" Sora looked confused, apparently hearing this name for the first time.

Lin Yide explained slowly: "They are the most powerful extreme terrorist organization in the continent of Teyvat. They are terrifyingly powerful and will do anything to achieve their goals."

Kaiya continued, "They have committed countless heinous crimes in Mondstadt. I wonder what kind of storm they will stir up this time?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kong immediately expressed his determination: "No matter how powerful they are, I will stop their evil deeds."

Paimon put his hands on his hips and added, "And me! Traveler's companion, Paimon!"

Lin Yide nodded with satisfaction. "Kong, since you are so determined, I will tell you where the Fatui are hiding."

Kong patted his chest confidently and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely take back the Sky Harp."

Later, Lin Yide revealed to Kong the Fatui's secret base outside the city.

After learning the information, Kong turned and left without hesitation, even though it was already late at night.

Lin Yide looked at his departing back and couldn't help but think of his past life. As long as he was given the raw stones, he would work hard even if it meant staying up all night.

"Master Ide, the Traveler is extraordinary!" Kaia exclaimed sincerely, "No wonder you think so highly of him and even carefully arranged such a big show to train him."

Lin Yide smiled slightly but did not explain too much.

He changed the subject lightly, "By the way, have the Fatui in Mondstadt been behaving well lately?"

When Kaiya mentioned this, his expression became quite strange. "The Fatui's funding chain seems to have some problems. Recently, they have frequently carried out robberies in the wild, and even did not let go of the treasure-stealing group."

Lin Yide was also surprised when he heard this, "Have the Fatui fallen to this point?

Please contact Lei Dapao and Wan Ye and ask them to warn these Fatui that Mond is now protected by the Western Factory.

If they dare to rob again, I will skin them alive!"

Kaiya couldn't help but tremble in his heart after hearing Lin Yide's words.

He knew that when Lin Yide said he would skin him alive, he meant it.

When it comes to punishing crime, the Western Factory has only one principle: fight violence with violence.
