Chapter 51: Aetheria

Just a short while after Yingmei and Paimon left, two more figures appeared in the alley.

If Yingmei were here, she would definitely recognize them.

It was Amber and Aetheria, who had chased them last night.

At this moment, the two were closely examining the alley.

Narrow and quiet,

no different from other alleys in Mondstadt.

Notably,

While Han Feng went out to eat yesterday, Captain Qin had already sent people to repair this place.

So now the ground here had returned to its original state.

"Was that shop right here?"

Aetheria's face showed hesitation.

Who in their right mind would open a shop here?

Or perhaps, as Hearing Yanfei said, cultivators prefer to live in remote places?

Hearing Yanfei was from Liyue.

Aetheria had once saved her from the Shenyuan Sect.

The two had since exchanged letters.

Hearing Yanfei had once written to her,

saying that the immortals of Liyue liked to dwell in secluded mountains and forests.

"It should be correct—this is the address Captain Qin gave me."

Amber double-checked several times.

"Let's go inside. If my strength had been stronger last night, those two thieves would never have escaped."

Aetheria felt guilty.

Amber felt the same way.

After leaving the Deerhunter Restaurant last night, the two had chased after them.

But those two moved extremely fast.

So much so that they lost track of them.

This left them both frustrated and ashamed.

A thief had slipped right under their noses!

Stung by this incident, the two women's desire to grow stronger grew ever stronger.

So early this morning, they went to Captain Qin for the address and rushed over.

After making their decision,

Aetheria and Amber walked into the Solace Bookshop, hearts pounding with excitement.

"You… you're not the person who was eating at the Deerhunter Restaurant last night, are you?"
