Honkai Impact 3rd, welcome to the Q&A space.

Guanxing suddenly asked, "Captain, have you noticed any changes in me recently?

"Changes?" The captain turned to look at her, carefully considering the meaning of her words... Ah! How slow, he only noticed this now!

Captain: "Stargazing, your new clothes suit you very well!"

Stargazing was clearly not satisfied with the captain's response. "Hmm? How does that fit?"

The captain was at a loss for words for a moment. "Uh... playful? And very cute!"

The captain praised her while observing her demeanor.

Guan Xing's face was still not smiling with satisfaction, and the captain suddenly realized something. "Oh, I forgot I promised you to buy osmanthus cake and lotus cake! Oh no, it's been so long, that basket of fresh osmanthus cake must have been sold out!"

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'll go buy them right away! And your favorite Xiaoyan'er and Lotus Fish Buns, I'll go to the dim sum shop on the east side and buy them all for you right away!"

Stargazing "Captain..."

Captain "Sorry, Stargazer, I'll be back soon!"

The captain hurried to the crowded dim sum restaurant and accidentally bumped into a strange woman on the way.

The captain quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, young lady. It's my fault for not paying attention to the front."

Strange woman (?): "It's alright, sir. It's my fault for not getting out of the way in time."

The captain didn't say anything more and ran back to the dim sum shop. Watching the captain's departing figure, the strange woman began to mutter to herself, "Is this fate? We have long been connected by an irresistible fate."

"Captain Hyperion, as long as it's not the last moment, you will be my biggest obstacle along the way. Even if I can move to another world bubble, you will still come in front of me and block my way for various reasons."

"There are still a few weeks until the remodeling, so before that... you must completely disappear from this world."

However, she was not in a hurry to take action now, and then the man disappeared in the crowd.

At this time, the captain picked out a few cakes that Guanxing liked, packed them in boxes, and then squeezed out of the crowd and returned to Guanxing.

Guanxing puffed out his cheeks, waved his fan a little impatiently, and held a small bag in his hand.

Captain: "Let me carry the box, Stargazer."

Guanxing took a few packages from the captain and walked straight to the inn they had booked before, keeping a distance from the captain that was neither too close nor too far.

"Let's go back quickly. There's so much food. If we don't enjoy it in time, it will be wasted."

Captain: "Yes, coming right up!"

The captain and Guanxing came to the inn and put the cakes they bought at the night market on plates one by one.

The square one is mung bean cake, the round one is egg yolk pastry, the crispy one is sesame candy, and the soft one is shrimp bun. Each one is exquisite and delicious.

Captain: "Well, I never thought that after so long, they are really good at making snacks here."

Stargazing "Mr. Assassin, try this."

Guanxing untied a small bundle, revealing an exquisitely crafted wooden box.

The captain thought to himself (Looking at the pattern of this furoshiki, could it be something she just bought alone...?)

Before the captain could ask more questions, Guanxing had already opened the box and pulled out an indecipherable...

Captain: "Sugar...Sugar man, is it a sugar man?"

Stargazing "Mr. Assassin has good eyesight"

Captain: "Well, the shape of this candy man is really weird... weirdly cute."

Stargazing: "Yes, [cute], just like Mr. Assassin sees me in this new outfit, I am just as [cute]."

Captain (She seems to be very particular about the word cute... Could it be that I said something wrong back then?)

Stargazing "Mr. Assassin, this cute candy man was made by me."

Captain: "Yeah... yeah, but, but, it looks like it's about to melt. Its cute shape is a bit..."

Stargazing held a delicate wooden spoon with a candy figure in it and passed it to the captain. "Hmm~ So... you have to eat it quickly."

The captain could vaguely make out the candy man in the shape of Houmu. The crimson candy on its surface began to melt, reflecting a strange light on Houmu's cheek.

Stargazing "Facing such a cute sugar man, what are you hesitating about? Come, Mr. Assassin, open your mouth and I will feed you——"

"Ah——" The captain no longer hesitated and opened his mouth wide, allowing Guanxing to put the sugar man into his mouth.

The next second, a refreshing sweet and sour taste made the captain's mouth water.

The captain put the candy man in his mouth and chewed it. Stargazing asked expectantly, "How is it? Is it delicious?"

The captain praised it highly, saying, "It's delicious, really delicious, it tastes like hawthorn!"

Stargazing "That's right. Savor it carefully, there's a little surprise."

The sweet taste prompted the captain to chew the candy with confidence. The slightly sticky texture did not affect its deliciousness...

Eh? Wait...what's that smell?

Captain: "Hiss—so spicy! Stargazing, what did you put in the candy?"

Guanxing replied, "It's garlic. It's perfect for warding off evil spirits."

"I read in a Western book about bat demons that garlic keeps evil spirits away...right?"

Captain: "I see..."

Although the captain felt that Stargazing seemed to be deliberately targeting someone, and he remembered that garlic was not used to ward off evil, but was hung on the body.

But after all, this was a token of Guanxing's kindness, so the captain mustered up his courage and swallowed the sweet and spicy food in his mouth.

Guanxing looked at the captain in astonishment. "Hey, you...how did you really eat it?"

Captain: "I think Mr. Stargazer must have his reasons for choosing this combination. Although... although this flavor is still too cutting-edge for most people, it does have a unique flavor."

A complex expression appeared on Guanxing's face, one that was both touching and annoyed. "Idiot..."

However, the captain did not understand what Guanxing meant. He simply felt that he had made the other party angry. "Hmm...what did I do wrong again?"

Stargazing: "No, no, you didn't do anything wrong. It's just that when you open your mouth now, you smell like garlic!"

"Sorry, I'll go right away..." The captain covered his mouth in a panic and was about to run outside to find a place to rinse his mouth...

The warm little hand grabbed the captain in time.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Here, there are some tea leaves. Just put them in your mouth and chew them for a few times. That'll be all."

Captain: "Even so, it will take some time..."

Stargazing "It's okay, I don't mind."

Guanxing moved his chair and moved closer to the captain...

Then she raised her head and looked at the bright moon passing through the clouds. "Look, the moonlight tonight is so beautiful."

Captain: "Yeah, the stars shine too."

The night wind blew, the stars shone brightly, and the captain, like her, raised his head to enjoy this rare moment of tranquility.

Before he knew it, the captain felt the weight of the girl's embrace on his shoulders.
