Hearing Su Xun's answer, Wendy's eyes widened even more, and he opened his mouth, wanting to ask something more.

But Su Xun patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll explain it to you later. Now let's take a look at what happened just now."

As he spoke, Su Xun looked towards the carriage that had stopped not far away.

At this time, the coachman had already got off the carriage. He was looking at Su Xun and the other two with horror on his face, and it was obvious that he had not yet recovered from the danger that had just occurred.

"I... I'm sorry! I almost hit you! I'm so sorry!" the driver stammered, his face full of guilt and fear.

"It's okay, you're not hurt, right?" Su Xun asked.

"No...no, thank you for your concern."

"That's good, but what happened just now? Why was your horse frightened?"

Hearing Su Xun's question, the driver came to his senses, and then said angrily: "Just now a strange beast suddenly rushed out from the alley next to us, scaring my horse, which caused the carriage to lose control."

"Beast?" Su Xun frowned, feeling somewhat confused.

There are very few wild beasts around Mondstadt, let alone suddenly appearing in the city.

"Yes, the beast was huge, covered with black hair, and very fast. It disappeared in the alley in the blink of an eye." The driver described with lingering fear.

Su Xun nodded, and then said to the coachman: "You go and take care of the carriage first, and check if the horse is injured. If you need help, you can ask the Knights of Favonius for help."

"Yes, thank you, sir," the driver said gratefully, and went to take care of the carriage.

Su Xun turned to look at Shen He and Wendy and said, "Shall we go over and take a look?"

"Okay." The two nodded.

So the three of them walked towards the alley the driver mentioned.

When they arrived at the entrance of the alley, Su Xun immediately sensed a faint elemental breath.

"There are residual thunder elements here." Su Xun said.

Upon hearing this, Wendy and Shen He also sensed it and indeed found the remnants of thunder element.

"The breath is very weak, the beast should not have gone too far." Su Xun said.

"Axun, should we catch up with him?" Shen He asked.

Su Xun shook his head. "It's just a wild beast. Let the Knights of Favonius deal with it."

This matter involves the security of Mondstadt's city defense, so it would be better to leave it to the Knights of Favonius.

Wendy and Shen He did not object either.

So the three of them found a patrolling knight and told him what had just happened.

Now in Mondstadt, everyone in the Knights of Favonius knows Su Xun. Therefore, the patrolling knight attaches great importance to the words of Su Xun, the honorary knight, and quickly said that he would report it to Captain Qin.

After finishing this small matter, Su Xun and the other two continued to walk towards the angel's gift.

When the three arrived at the door of the tavern, they unexpectedly met Kaia.

"Kaia?"

"Hey, isn't this our honorary knight?" Kaia was a little surprised, then he smiled, "What a coincidence, I was just about to come here for a drink and I met you guys."

"Yeah, what a coincidence." Su Xun shrugged.

"Who is this beautiful lady..." Kaiya asked Shen He.

He already knew the wind god Venti, but Shenhe made him feel very unfamiliar. In order to eliminate the unstable factors in Mond, Kaeya naturally needed to get to know him.

Su Xun briefly introduced the two of them, and then said, "Don't you want to go in for a drink? Let's go in together?"

Kaiya smiled and spread his hands, "Of course, since we have met, let's go together."

Kaiya said, his eyes lingering on Shen He for a while, as if assessing her strength and specific origins.

Shen He just looked back at him calmly, without any extra expression.

She felt that this person was a bit deep-minded, which made her a little unhappy.

The four of them entered the Angel's Gift together. The interior decoration of the tavern was simple and bold, full of the unique style of Mondstadt.

The pub was bustling with people, obviously one of the most popular social places in the city.

They found a seat by the window and sat down. Wendy and Kaiya both ordered their usual drinks skillfully, while Su Xun ordered a mild non-alcoholic drink for Shen He and himself.

"Su Xun, have you been staying in Liyue recently?" Kaeya asked curiously, while observing Su Xun's expression.

"Yeah, that's right." Su Xun answered simply without revealing too many details.

Seeing this, Kaeya did not continue to ask questions, but instead chatted with a few people about the interesting things that happened in Mondstadt recently.

Shen He sat quietly beside Su Xun, occasionally taking a sip of her drink. She was not interested in the noise around her, but just accompanied Su Xun silently.

Just as they were chatting, the door of the tavern was pushed open, and a group of knights dressed in the uniforms of the Knights of Favonius walked in.

Leading the group was a tall, capable female knight, who was none other than Jean, the acting leader of the Knights of Favonius.

Qin's eyes swept around the tavern and quickly locked onto Su Xun's table.

She walked over, and the other knights followed behind her.

Seeing this scene, the lively atmosphere in the tavern suddenly became quieter.

Some drinkers curiously looked over at Su Xun and talked in low voices with their companions.

"Su Xun, long time no see. If I hadn't heard Raymond's report, I wouldn't have known that you had returned to Mond." Qin asked with a smile after walking up to Su Xun and the others.

Raymond was the patrolling knight that Su Xun and his friends met.

"Captain Qin, long time no see." Su Xun also responded with a smile, and then explained: "The main reason I came back this time is that Klee made two friends in Liyue, and she wanted to bring them to Mondstadt to play, so I followed them."

"By the way, this is..." Su Xun took the initiative to introduce Shen He who was sitting next to him.

The two women greeted each other, and then Qin got straight to the point: "I just received a report that you encountered an incident where the carriage lost control, and mentioned the appearance of a strange beast with lightning elemental power."

Qin said with a serious expression: "We need to know more details in order to investigate this matter."

Su Xun nodded and briefly recounted what had happened before and the driver's description.

After Qin heard this, she frowned slightly and fell into deep thought for a moment. It was obvious from her expression that she took this matter very seriously.

Seeing this, Su Xun couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's wrong, Captain Qin? Although it is rare for wild beasts to enter the city, it is not a special event. Is there any hidden story behind this?"

Captain Qin shook her head and said, "This matter may not be that simple. Recently, some strange beasts have appeared around Mondstadt. They often attack caravans and pedestrians, causing great trouble to people's lives. We have sent many knights to investigate, but to no avail."
