Grandma Ping turned her head and fell silent.

Cat's Tail Tavern.
That chuunibyou girl who came yesterday is here again today.
She wandered around inside Mondstadt, searching and searching, but still couldn't find the older brother wearing sunglasses that she had seen there yesterday.
There was a hint of disappointment in the girl's eyes.
She followed him for a while yesterday, but then went home for dinner and lost track of him.
She had been wondering if she would run into him again in this place today.
But clearly, she wasn't very lucky.
The raven on her shoulder spoke up, "Miss, why don't we go look somewhere else?"
The girl frowned: "Your advice... is fine."
The girl left Mond Department Store and wandered aimlessly through the streets, but still found nothing.
At this time, Xia Zhi was having tea with Qin in the West Wind Knights' headquarters office.
Before she knew it, the girl had arrived at the entrance of the Adventurers' Guild.
Catherine's familiar voice rang out: "Towards the stars and the abyss, welcome to the Adventurers' Guild!"
The girl looked up at the association, which was bustling with people, her expression thoughtful.
It's really inconvenient to search by myself.
If I posted a missing person request in the Adventurers' Guild, things would probably be much simpler.
With that thought in mind, the girl walked into the Adventurers' Guild.
She possesses an Adventurer's Certificate and is considered an investigator for the Adventurers' Guild.
However, she was still young, and her family did not allow her to leave the city at will, let alone fight monsters. Therefore, she did not complete many quests, and they were mostly simple things such as running errands and finding people in the city.
There is a large wooden board in the Adventurers' Guild with various quests posted on it.
The more prominent the location, the more difficult the task, and the higher the reward upon completion.
The girl glanced longingly at the quests for the extermination.
As a princess who judges crimes, she should punish those who deserve it! ...Never mind, we'll talk about it later.
The girl looked away and gazed at a spot in the corner of the wooden board.
Finding people, delivering messages... these are all simple jobs she can take on, with fees ranging from tens to hundreds of Mora.
The girl glanced around and was about to walk behind the bar to find Catherine and post her request.
The raven on her shoulder suddenly spoke up: "Miss, wait a minute, have you forgotten that you lost all your pocket money playing mahjong yesterday afternoon?"
The girl froze, her steps abruptly halting.
Yes.
Yesterday afternoon, after she finished eating, she left home, intending to continue looking for that older brother, but she couldn't find him, so she went to Cat's Tail Tavern to try playing mahjong.
However, because she was a newbie and her card-playing skills were really bad, coupled with her bad luck, she managed to lose all of her allowance for the month.
She was quite upset at the time, but after sleeping on it that night, she forgot all about it when she woke up the next morning.
The girl paused for a moment, then said, "Money is such an inconvenient thing... Hmph..."
no solution anymore.
Without money, you can't continue posting requests to find people.
Of course, it's not that you can't post these kinds of free commissions, but even if they're posted in the most conspicuous place, adventurers generally won't have anything better to do than accept them.
The girl left the Adventurers' Guild looking dejected.
At the door, she saw a boy scratching his head.
He had bright white hair, wore green goggles, had a thin white bandage across his nose, a bright yellow cloth strap tied around his right arm, and wore short clothes common to adventurers. He also had a small bag at his waist with a red fire-elemental eye embedded in it.
The girl knew the boy.
His name is Bennett, and he is also an adventurer and the leader of the "Bennett Adventurers".
He loves adventure, but I've heard that his luck isn't very good, and neither are his crew members.
The girl walked up to Bennett and greeted him in her usual arrogant tone: "Unlucky boy, my 'Eye of Judgment' has long witnessed your sorrow of being despised by the world..."
The raven perched on the girl's shoulder said, "She said, hello."
Bennett looked up at the girl with an incredibly warm smile and said, "Oh, it's Fischl and Oz. Hello to you both. I'm currently looking for new members for the Bennett Adventurers' Guild. Alas, another member has had to leave due to an accidental injury. If we don't replenish the guild soon, Miss Catherine might disband it."
An adventurer's group is an organization of adventurers. It is a special mechanism set up to support each other and reduce the accident rate. The Adventurers' Association has a strict requirement that there are at least three to four resident adventurers in the group, otherwise it will face disbandment.
At this point, Bennett suddenly looked at the girl and extended a warm invitation to her: "Fischl, why don't you join my Bennett Adventurers' Crew!"
Fischl was taken aback: "Ah? I am the Princess of Judgment, joining your adventure party?"
The raven perched on her shoulder said, "Miss, it's not impossible. That way, you can get Bennett to help you find people."
Fischl hesitated for a moment.
She remembered Bennett's "bad luck." According to other adventurers, the members of Bennett's adventure group were originally quite lucky, but their luck turned bad after joining the group. No matter what mission they took, they would fail in the end, and they would even get injured due to various unexpected events. Everyone suspected that they were affected by the "bad luck" of their leader, Bennett.
Of course, as a princess who has been sentenced to death and possesses noble blood, she would never be afraid of such rumors! Even if the rumors were true, she would not be afraid of being infected by bad luck, or rather, her bloodline would never be affected.
Oz is right. Joining Benny's Adventures will allow him to help us find people.
Although she didn't know why she wanted to find the older brother she had just met yesterday, she was bored anyway, and since she didn't have money to go to the bar to play mahjong, she might as well find something to do.
...Since that's the case, I might as well agree to join his adventurer's party.
Fischl nodded and said, "Since you have asked so sincerely, I will mercifully grant your request."
Bennett's face immediately lit up with a happy smile: "Great! Thank you, Fischl! Oz just said you were looking for someone, right? Don't worry, leave it to me! I'll definitely find them for you! But let's go register with Miss Catherine first!"
The two people went to the bar.
Miss Catherine glanced at Fischl upon hearing Bennett's purpose for coming.
She really wanted to tell the girl that it wasn't just one member of the Bennett Adventurers who had left, but that all the other members had secretly switched teams. However, she felt that the news was too bad, so she hadn't told Bennett directly yet.
Chapter 453 It seems like I've been targeted by a nun (4K)
On either side of the stone bridge at the entrance to Mondstadt, a flock of plump pigeons landed on the ground, pecking at the breadcrumbs offered to them.
Caravans passed by frequently along the road, but even the rumbling of their wheels did not startle a single pigeon. They seemed to have been domesticated by the people of Mondstadt and had lost their wild wariness.
The Knights of Favonius guarding the city gates dutifully questioned each caravan about their origins and made notes in their notebooks, their attitude being more serious and friendly than during non-holiday periods.
This was an order issued by the leader of the guild, both to guard against the infiltration of the Abyss Order and to give a good impression to the travelers and merchants who came to Mondstadt for the Windflower Festival.
When the guards inspected a particular carriage, a small girl wearing diamond-shaped glasses jumped down and greeted them with a standard, business-like smile: "Good afternoon, everyone!"
"The Knights of Favonius send their greetings... We would appreciate it if you could provide your specific identity."
“I am Dori Sangomahabai, a traveling merchant from Sumeru. This is my identification, bearing the official seal of the Sumeru Order Academy.”
A guard knight took the paper Dolly handed him and checked its authenticity.
Another guard knight lifted the lid of the carriage and inspected the cargo inside.
After a short while, both sides confirmed that there were no problems, made a record of it, returned the identification to Dolly, and allowed the caravan to pass.
The caravan successfully entered Mondstadt.
Dolly sat in the carriage in front, looking at the streets that were bustling with activity as the festival approached. A smile crept onto her face, revealing a look of someone who was about to make a fortune.
Compared to last year's Wind Flower Festival, she actually arrived in Mondstadt a few days later this year.
The main problem was that some unexpected things happened a few days ago, which caused her to lose some time in Liyue.
She was all ready to leave when the little summer shop on Feiyunpo suddenly started a lot of lively activities.
Furthermore, as long as you are a member of Liyue Bank, you can enjoy various discounts at the store.
As a traveling merchant, Dolly has deposits in banks in various countries, making her a member of the Liyue Bank.
Out of curiosity, she went to try it out and found that there were a lot of customers.
Looking at the strange but highly effective promotional activities in the store, Dolly felt that she had learned a lot of new things from this Tianquan star.
No wonder they're richer than me!
It was precisely to study these new ways to make money that Dolly stayed in Liyue for a few more days, and only arrived in Mondstadt today.
Although all the decent hotels in the city were fully booked, this did not affect Dolly at all.
Because when she first came to Mondstadt to do business, she bought a large house in the city and hired a butler to manage it for her.
Returning to Mondstadt felt almost like returning to her own Elkazazare Palace.
The caravan crossed the street and soon arrived at the door of a luxurious house.
The steward was already waiting there. Upon seeing the caravan's carriage, she immediately came forward: "Lord Sanggo Mahabay!"
