Qi Qi nodded calmly: "Okay."
Rosalia walked to the counter, took out the crystal ball she had hidden in the drawer, and put it in her pocket.
She had no spatial items on her, so this was the only way to store them.
Then, she walked out of the store.
I heard a familiar cat meowing behind me.
Rosalia turned around and saw that it was Little White.
It followed behind her, its dark eyes filled with a human-like spirituality, looking as if it were attached to her.
Rosalia hesitated for a moment, but finally bent down, picked it up, and held it close to her chest before leaving the store with it.

Somewhere around Mondstadt.
Several members of the Fools were guarding the perimeter.
Two suspicious figures are meeting in the secret passage inside.
"This godforsaken place, though dilapidated and not in line with the taste of the nobility, we can only put up with it for now."
"Let's get straight to the point. Have you brought the Mondstadt defense map you promised?"
"Ah, of course, right here."
"Let me see... uh, why is it so ugly? The lines are crooked and twisted, and what are these squares and circles?"
"What did you say? I spent a long time drawing this out bit by bit! It's not some square or circle! It's the symbol of the Knights of Favonius!"
"Sigh, alright, it's a bit rudimentary, but I can barely understand it. Can you guarantee that all this information is reliable?"
"Of course, don't worry. And don't forget our agreement: the Lawrence family flag must fly atop the Knights' headquarters. The ownership of that building, as well as the direct management of the entire city, belongs to the Lawrence family."
"Yes, it's a win-win deal, no need to haggle. We'll make good use of this intelligence. By the way, considering the diplomatic implications, please don't reveal our identities in any situation."
"Don't worry, don't worry, this is a secret known only to heaven, earth, you, and me. No one else will be involved. When the time comes, I'll stand on the roof of the Knights' headquarters and denounce their weak rule over Mondstadt. All the citizens will once again submit to Lawrence's feet! Haha, they're all back, all of them are back!"
At that moment, a piercing "sizzling" sound suddenly rang out in the air of the secret passage.
It's like the sound of a greatsword's tip dragging across a stone slab.
Schubert and Sergei, who were plotting something, simultaneously looked up in the direction the voice came from: "Who is it?!"
The torchlight illuminated a face as cold and aloof as ice.
"Yura!? What are you doing here?"
"Naturally, I came following behind you."
"You were actually following me!?"
"I just saw you acting suspiciously, Uncle, and that you came out of town alone late at night, so I was worried about your safety and came to check on you."
"I see! Yura, you've come at the perfect time! With you joining us, our plan will definitely go much more smoothly!"
Yura looked at him and asked calmly, "Plan? What's your plan, Uncle?"
"Of course, it's to help the family regain its glory!"
"Glory? Ha... Please allow me to refuse."
"You! You are a nobleman with the blood of the Lawrence family flowing through your veins! You should obey the will of the family!"
"But from the past to the present, when have I ever obeyed the will of my family?"
"You, you...! You utterly rebellious bastard!"
"If anyone's going to get angry, it should be me. You know you're a member of the Lawrence family, yet you're still doing things that threaten Mondstadt's security. Have you thought about how many people you've caused trouble for? Have you considered how many enemies I'll have to make to quell this?"
"Are you lecturing me? How dare you lecture me? How did our family produce someone like you..."
Schubert seemed somewhat hysterical.
Yura said calmly, "As a nobleman, one should always maintain politeness and elegance. You have lost your composure, Uncle."
Sergei's eyes flickered, and suddenly, taking advantage of the moment when Yura and Schubert were talking, he quickly ran towards the depths of the secret passage.
With the intelligence in hand, he no longer needed to waste time...
Yura watched his retreating figure, snorted coldly, and chased after him with her greatsword.
Suddenly, Sergei's screams came from afar.
Yura frowned and quickened her pace.
A moment later, she arrived at her destination.
Sergei was lying on the ground, groaning in pain.
Rosalia's beautiful figure stood beside her, toying with a dagger in her hand, the blade faintly stained with blood.
There was also a cute white cat at her feet.
Yura looked at Rosalia and said coldly, "You said you wouldn't interfere."
Rosalia's tone was also cold: "I only said that I wouldn't interfere in your family's affairs. As for this guy, he's a member of the Fatui, and he has nothing to do with your family."
Yura paused for a moment, then walked over and picked up the piece of paper that had slipped to the ground.
Schubert, through observation and drawing, marked the patrol routes of the Knights of Favonius and a lot of other information on them.
Yura glanced at it and tore the paper to shreds.
Rosalia watched the scraps of paper fall to the ground, saying nothing more. She simply looked down at the person on the ground and said, "Hurry up and tell me everything you know."
"Dream on! I would never betray the Queen!"
"The bones are quite strong."
Rosalia casually stepped on one of his arms.
Another piercing wail followed.
Then, Rosalia crouched down, took out a crystal ball, and placed the limp arm on it.
"What's your name?"
"Sergei..."
"Tsk, now they're behaving themselves..."
Yura looked on expressionlessly.
At her feet, a cute white cat was also watching quietly.
Chapter 536 This is Amway (4K)
inside the room.
Xia Zhi disconnected the white cat's shared vision, a strange look appearing in his eyes.
I initially thought the secret plan between the Lawrence family and the Fools would be some terrible conspiracy...
I didn't expect it to end like this?
If they can't even draw a simple city defense map properly, it's no wonder they haven't been able to revive the glory of the Lawrence family for so many years.
However, this time he did witness Rosalia's skillful interrogation techniques.
It's clear she's done a lot of this kind of dirty work before; she's very experienced.
As for Yura... she has never followed the will of her family and is quite unconventional, which makes it even easier to persuade her.
Xia Zhi had a vague idea in his mind.
I'll go and have a good talk with Yura tomorrow.
Tonight, I'll go keep the little crane company first.

the next morning.
Qin arrived at the office.
The latest documents that need to be processed have been delivered to the table.
Qin glanced at it; it was another huge pile.
Sigh, today was another busy day.
First, make a cup of tea, then make a bowl of instant noodles.
Qin carried the bucket of noodles to the table.
While the noodles were still soaking, I picked up a document and flipped through it.
It was sent by Rosalia.
Inside was a report on her clandestine actions last night, as well as the results of her interrogation of Sergei, a member of the Fools.
As for Schubert Lawrence, she made no contact with him, only mentioning him briefly at the end of the document that it was handled by "Guerrilla Squad Leader Yura".
