Chapter 9

Not good, I'm about to be moved!

……

(Seeking flowers, seeking evaluation)

9. Xueyi: It's been too long since returning to the living, the Xianzhou is actually...

"Shopkeeper, this faucet of yours... is it for sale?"

After drinking the Star-Yue Bobo, Fu Xuan still couldn't help but ask.

Lin Qi answered very readily.

"For sale!"

"How many Strale?"

"If others come to buy, I wouldn't sell it for any amount of money, but for you, Diviner Master, I'll charge five hundred Strale."

"It's not too expensive."

Fu Xuan nodded and immediately placed the order readily.

No way.

Who made her like Star-Yue Bobo so much?

Not to mention five hundred Strale, she would take it even for fifty thousand Strale!

In fact.

Five hundred Strale is definitely not a small amount; converted into credits, it's a full one hundred thousand!

You know, with the not-so-low consumption level of the space station, four thousand credits are enough for two people to live for a month; ordinary people shouldn't even think about saving one hundred thousand credits in a year or two.

Of course.

This little bit of money doesn't mean anything to Fu Xuan at all.

In addition, even if she didn't hold a high position, she has lived for several hundred years and still has some family foundation.

A mere five hundred Strale is not a problem at all.

"Cough, cough!"

Putting away the faucet, Fu Xuan composed her expression and didn't forget the purpose of her trip.

"Shopkeeper, this seat won't beat around the bush! This seat came here for a diviner of the Divination Commission. I won't say the name, the shopkeeper should be clear."

"This seat just wants to ask, does the shopkeeper know why she has been so abnormal recently?"

"Or is it that the shopkeeper is also involved in this matter?"

Lin Qi of course knows who Fu Xuan is talking about.

But he clearly didn't intend to cover for her, just puzzled, "Qingque, exposed so quickly? I thought she could persist for a while longer; didn't expect it, it's a pity I sold her so many curios! I underestimated you Xianzhou people! Diviner Master, your Dharma Eye is truly exhaustive."

"Huh?"

Fu Xuan's beautiful brows furrowed, and the joy of obtaining the infinitely drinkable Star-Yue Bobo curio vanished completely.

Qingque, she really...

At this time.

Fu Xuan's Jade Abacus received a message.

From the law enforcement department of the Balance Commission, almost hammering the conjecture.

Not only text information, but also a segment of video, on which Qingque's flying escape was clearly displayed, and even gave her "Mara-Struck" a close-up.

The text wrote, "Suspect Qingque is missing, requesting the Divination Commission to enable the Matrix of Prescience to query her whereabouts!"

At this moment, Fu Xuan was silent.

Since the Matrix of Prescience was built, it's not that it hasn't been used on her own people, but like this situation, it's really not common.

In addition, there is another doubt that also plagues Fu Xuan.

Why did Qingque join the Sanctus Medicus?

Could it be...

Because this seat manages too strictly, making her unable to slack off?

Somehow, Fu Xuan felt a bit self-blaming, as if she had harmed Qingque.

"But there is still room for recovery; Qingque hasn't fallen too deep yet; even if I bet the name of the Diviner, this seat must pull Qingque back."

Thinking this, Fu Xuan had a cold pretty face, lotus steps stepped lightly, the magic array under her feet rose, and her whole person suddenly soared into the sky.

The speed was faster than a star-skiff!

"Left quite fast."

Walking out of the shop, Lin Qi looked at the direction Fu Xuan left and silently estimated her strength.

Considering Fu Xuan's best divination, which he hadn't really felt yet, Lin Qi reached a conclusion.

"Hmm..."

"Without using props, I shouldn't be able to take her down."

"Diviner Master is still quite strong."

"It's just that the reaction seems a bit strong; isn't it just slacking off? Making it look like a major crime; has the Divination Commission always been under such high pressure?"

"Qingque, I can understand you now; being a worker is not easy."

Lin Qi sighed while thinking about whether to watch the fun.

Suddenly, a paralyzed-faced girl who was a bit taller than Fu Xuan, with a team of Underworld guards, surrounded Lin Qi along with Lin Qi's shop.

This girl had black hair and red eyes, and her tone was cold: "Judge of the 'Detention' Department of the Ten-Lords Commission—Xueyi, by the order of the Ten-Lords Commission, before the Qingque case is investigated clearly, please stay here for the time being."

Lin Qi turned back to look at this girl, his attitude non-committal.

Just a bit puzzled about what Qingque did.

Fu Xuan coming in person can still be said to be concerned about her subordinates.

The Ten-Lords Commission participating, the nature is a bit different.

In addition, no wonder Fu Xuan left so readily.

Could it be that she calculated that the Ten-Lords Commission would come?

But from what Lin Qi understands, generally only major criminals, or matters involving Mara-Struck, would the Ten-Lords Commission come forward.

So, is Qingque's crime that big?

Lin Qi didn't ask the doubt out; he could see that the girl in front of him wouldn't reveal too much information.

Because...

"Are you a mechanical body?"

"Yes!"

"Long heard that the Ten-Lords Commission studies the art of puppets; seeing it today, it is indeed extraordinary. If Miss Xueyi didn't have a paralyzed face, she would be almost indistinguishable from a real person!" Lin Qi sighed.

Although he drew quite a lot of "black technology," he is not proficient in all technologies.

At least in terms of puppet bodies, he is not as proficient as the Xianzhou.

Even Herta probably can't compare?

Lin Qi is not sure about this point.

Because he only studied puppets at the space station and hasn't studied them in the Xianzhou yet.

I don't know if there are spherical joints under this paralyzed girl's white clothes?

Lin Qi looked at the girl openly and touched his chin.

Hmm...

Covered by white silk, couldn't tell.

Then, Lin Qi, whose research desire had come up, said without thinking.

"Miss Xueyi, can I see your legs? Hmm, preferably the kind without anything on."

"???"

At this moment.

Even if Xueyi is a mechanical body and can't feel too many emotions, she was dumbfounded to the extreme.

Is it me who is wrong, or do you have a problem?

It's been too long since "returning to the living," and the Xianzhou can already openly discuss this?

……

ps: The prices do not adopt the marked prices in the game store; the store prices are too exaggerated for people in the Honkai: Star Rail world. According to game text inference, a few thousand credits are enough for two people to live. At the same time, the damage degree of the Astral Express is 20%, and the company's valuation is 990,000 credits. If the prices in the game store are used, a five-million-value Astral Express would only be equivalent to four thousand cups of Star-Yue Bobo, which is clearly impossible.
