Chapter 220 Pretend
But it is impossible to think about it this way, because the Abyss Cult will not make such a risky move.
Speaking of it... Lin Yan remembers that Ke Qing seemed to promise him to pay him, but because Lin Yan didn't have anything he wanted at that time, he kept it for the next time.
This time I looked for traces of the Abyss Cult. Isn’t it just right to use that reward? Otherwise, it would be owed, so I should make reasonable use of it.
So after going back this time, Lin Yan would go to find Ke Qing. As for where to find her... he might have to consult the General Affairs Department or Gan Yu.
"I will give you ten days. If you want to be my companion, your ability is stronger than that of ordinary people. Although you have defeated the Demon God and your strength has been affirmed by me, this is just my personal test of you."
"Come on, if you can find them within ten days, come here to find me. I will wait for you and hope you don't let me down."
After saying that, Deinthreb turned around, and his palm wrapped around the previous energy layer again. After tearing a passage in front of him, he walked into it and then disappeared from the spot.
Lin Yan did not stop him from leaving this time. He turned around and planned to return to Liyue Port to find Keqing now. But before leaving, he specially added a decoration to himself, which looked like he had a fierce battle with someone just now. After all, he had to be full of his appearance, otherwise it would be bad to arouse the suspicion of Liyue Qixing.
Moreover, he had already figured out how to report to them when he went back.
......
Pretending to drag his scarred body back to Liyue Port, when he first reached the entrance, several Qianyan troops came up, and they seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
However, after seeing the scars on Lin Yan's body, they couldn't help but be stunned.
"Mr. Lin Yan, are you okay?" Lin Yan was the great hero who saved Li Yue after all. Qixing might be alert to him, but others definitely won't, so a Qianyanjun immediately walked up to check his situation.
"It's okay, I just fought with someone, but unfortunately I couldn't catch him." His tone and expression were pretending to be very good. At this moment, even Lin Yan admired his acting skills.
These simple-minded Qian Yanjun would definitely not doubt his words. After all, they watched Lin Yan and Deinthreb run out of Liyue Port with their own eyes. They also received the order from Qixing to wait for Lin Yan to come back here to see how he was doing.
Now it seems that Lin Yan should have had a fierce battle with the other party. Although he did not lose, he let the other party escape.
The Qianyan Army was very surprised by this, because they watched Lin Yan suppress Ossel back to Guyun Pavilion with his own eyes. He could even defeat the demon god, but now he can't catch a suspicious person?
Maybe Lin Yan did not use all his strength in the battle, or maybe it was because the opponent's strength was indeed very strong, but no matter what, these Qianyan troops would not suspect that Lin Yan deliberately let the opponent go.
"I have to go home now, take a shower, and then have a good rest." Pushing away the Qianyan troops standing in front of me, Lin Yan dragged his very tired body toward Liyue Port. After more than ten minutes, he returned home.
It's afternoon now, and it's not time to eat. Youla, who had just woken up and took a nap, was stretching in the living room on the first floor. When Lin Yan pushed the door open, she didn't pay attention. She turned her head and found scars on his body.
"What's going on with you?" She was worried that Lin Yan would encounter danger and immediately walked forward. She finally felt relieved after confirming that Lin Yan was fine.
"It's nothing, it's just a fight with a guy who is not weak." Lin Yan took the commission from the Adventurers Association today, and later told Youla about the fight with Dainthreb, but he made up the subsequent battle with Dainthreb.
"You didn't even know what the other party's identity is, so you just started fighting with him?" Youla was puzzled because Lin Yan said that she didn't know the identity of Dainthreb.
The content of the commission was to ask him to investigate whether the other party was a suspicious person, but what happened that he had a fight with him after a disagreement?
"That guy doesn't look like a good guy. He ignores me when he talks to him, so I can't help but attack him. If he is really a ill-hearted guy, he will definitely run away because of guilt, so my guess is right. Unfortunately, that guy's strength is stronger than I thought, so he lets him run away."
The reason why Lin Yan didn't tell the truth to Youla was that only by cheating on his own people could those who suspected him believe that he did not pose any threat to Liyue.
Afterwards, Lin Yan went to take a shower, changed his clothes, and then returned to his room and slept for a night, without even having dinner.
......
After sleeping, Lin Yan slept until the next morning. Because he didn’t have supper yesterday, he felt a very strong sense of empty stomach in his stomach.
Because it was still early in the morning, neither Youla nor Xiaobai got up, but those breakfast shops had already started to open. Lin Yan, who was too lazy to go to cook on his own, put on his clothes and went to a breakfast shop in the port to buy some breakfast to fill his empty abdomen.
After breakfast, Lin Yan did not go home, but went to the Adventurers Association. Because Katherine was a robot, she would stand at the front desk twenty-four hours a day, and there were staff members within the Adventurers Association for twenty-four hours.
"Sorry, Mr. Catherine, I have not completed this commission." Lin Yan said with a hint of apology when he handed over the paper that he received from Catherine yesterday.
After saying that, he also told the story of yesterday again.
"That's a pity. Didn't I expect that even Mr. Lin Yan could not find out the identity of that person? But this would be fine. As long as he left Liyue Port, he would not have any more intentions." Catherine said after taking the entrustment paper from Lin Yan's hand.
This time, Lin Yan did not accept the daily commission, but turned to leave the Adventurers Association and went to Yujingtai.
He came to Yujingtai to find Gan Yu. Gan Yu was the secret technique of the seven-stars. She must know Keqing's residence or where to work. He wanted to find Keqing and asked her to send someone to find the Abyss Cult in the four areas of Jueyunjian, Tianheng Mountain, Guyun Pavilion and Yaoguangtan.
Dainsreb only gave him five days, so he had to find the traces of the Abyss Cult as soon as possible.
After finding Gan Yu who was working inside Yujingtai, Lin Yan learned from her that Keqing's residence and job position.
It is worth mentioning that when the Nantianmen parted last time, Gan Yu had returned to Yujingtai to take up his post. Lin Yan came here with the mentality of seeing Gan Yu, but he didn't expect to see him.
According to the address given by Gan Yu, Lin Yan first went to Ke Qing's house. Unexpectedly, Ke Qing's house was actually a prominent family. The small house and courtyard almost made him lost inside.
If it weren't for the servant guarding the gate knowing him, he probably wouldn't have come inside.
