Xingtie: My mission master joins the chat group.

After playing a prank on Hen, Alicia was in a good mood. Remembering that Alice was still busy in Nordkalai, she asked about her progress in the group chat.

【Ding dong! 】

Alicia: @WitchA, how's it going on your end?

Ying: @WitchA, I'm asking you a question, come out and report the situation!

Funina: With you jumping around like that, aren't you really afraid that one day you'll open your eyes and see Ms. Alice standing in front of you?

Ying: What? Are you going to kill me?

Obsidian Grandma: Awesome!

Xing: Even Grandma admires your abilities.

Obsidian Grandma: I'm still very young.

She used to think she was quite old, but after joining the chat group, she found herself to be like a 'loli'.

Xing: Even if you're young, can you be younger than me?

Xing: It's most appropriate for me to call you Grandma.

Ying: Amnesia doesn't count.

Ying: Who knows how many years you lived before you lost your memory?

Xing: Aren't you the same?

Star: Who knows how many days and nights you spent before coming to Teyvat.

Star & Firefly: Barking like dogs!

Witch A:......

This left Alice, who wanted to criticize Ying, speechless.

Two amazing people!

After thinking for a moment, Alice shared her current progress in the group chat.

Witch A: After purchasing information from the owner of the Secret House, she went to the Secret House again and successfully found the clues left by the owner.

However, the intelligence was a bad purchase. I didn't expect the intelligence left by Nefer to be so accurate, pointing directly to a specific location.

I thought it would be more subtle and take some time to deduce.

However, although she lost money buying the intelligence, she wasn't the one who lost out.

So Alice didn't feel anything.

Witch A: I have to say this again. I was forced to intervene once during my investigation. This time, the fee is one million Mora. Remember to settle the payment at the end.

Alicia: What? What? What did you say? I suddenly don't understand.

Witch A:?

Witch A: Do you need me to come to you and explain it to you face to face?

Alicia: Cough cough cough, then no need.

Alicia: Regarding Mora... you should ask Lin Mao, I don't have a single Mora on me.

Alicia decisively shifted the blame onto Lin Mao.

After all, even if she were completely naked, there wouldn't be a single Mora in her body.

What if I find it?

"...You're awesome."

……

【Ding dong! 】

Witch A: The information purchase originally cost one million Mora, but forget about that. You only need to pay me one million Mora for the service.

Lin Mao: One million Mora for a single transaction? Are your hands made of gold or silver?

Witch A: So you mean you don't want to give it to me?

Lin Mao: No, what I mean is...

Lin Mao: Let me check it and see if it meets the value.

What are you checking?

Check if her hands are made of gold or silver.

Star: Aha!

Xing: You're finally going to make a move on the young woman!

Ying: You're so bold!

Ying: Don't try to pin your dirty thoughts on my brother!

Ying: My brother is capable of anything, including shouting "I'm an idiot" in public, biting a lighter, and stuffing a bomb into his crotch!

Ying: He even dares to eat shit!

Lin Mao: I dare not!

Lin Mao couldn't help but say in the group that he dared not, and that what Ying said was what she said herself, and had nothing to do with him, Lin Mao.

Ying's reaction was also quite intriguing.

Ying: Okay, brother.

This made Lin Mao feel very strange.

Lin Mao: ...

Lin Mao: Was I tricked by Ying?

Lin Mao now realized that Ying's purpose in saying so much was not to refute Xing, but to force him out.

Knowing that speaking out means... he's admitting he's her brother?!

Lin Mao exclaimed inwardly, "Holy crap!"

I never expected Ying to be so cunning; even he couldn't escape being tricked by her.

"Plan succeeds!"

Nata wore a sinister smile on his face.

Using one purpose to conceal another is a method that even Lin Mao wouldn't be able to see through for a while!

Now that Lin Mao has acknowledged it, she can legitimately call Lin Mao "brother" in the group chat.

Disgusting him!

Ahem! It's to show the bond between siblings!

She's the best sister in history, how could she possibly disgust her own brother?

right?

Does this make sense?

【Ding dong! 】

Ying: giegie~

Witch A: Hiss—this thing can even send voice messages?

Xing: Yes, brother, yes.

Xing: However, I don't recommend you listen to Ying's voice message.

Witch A: You're done talking.

Xing: I know.

Witch A:......

star:……

Witch A: Is there anything else you want to say?

Xing: Is there anything else you want to ask?

Witch A:?

star:?

Kiana: Are you two putting on a show here?

Kiana: And you too! @Ying, from now on, just send these kinds of messages to Lin Mao privately, don't disgust everyone!

Ying: No way! How can I highlight my deep friendship with Giegie if I don't say it in the group chat?

Ying: I have to say it in the group chat!

Alicia: Sigh~ @Lin Mao, come and control your little sister!

Lin Mao: She has nothing to do with me.

Ying: Ugh~

Kiana: Ugh!

Lin Mao: Ugh!

Xing: Ugh!

Witch A: Ugh!

Obsidian Grandma: ? What did she post?

Star: Don't click on it!

Obsidian Grandma: Ugh!

Xing: I told you not to click on it...

Obsidian Granny: You can't say it too early!

Xing: Okay, it's my fault.

Obsidian Granny: ...

Xing's quick admission made Sitrus feel a little embarrassed.

Obsidian Grandma: Well, I can't blame you.

Xing: Then hurry up and apologize to me!

Xing: Remember to compensate me for the emotional distress caused by your slander.

Xing: Not much, 100,000 or 200,000 will do, just give me whatever you think is appropriate.

Obsidian Granny: ...

Obsidian Grandma: (Damn it!.jpg)

I never expected that after I took a step back, Xing would become so arrogant!

Funina: Oh no! I need to get my brain working!

Fu Ningna: Can someone explain how Lin Mao got tricked and what trick he got tricked in?

Ying: What kind of trick is this? Me, the younger sister, tricking my own brother?

Xing: Hard to say.

Kiana: I actually wanted to ask that too...

Lin Mao: What did you ask? Stop chatting in the group and keep eating.

Kiana: Oh.

Pink Fairy: Hmm—why does Lin Mao's statement sound a bit strange?

I took another look... and it still looks weird.

Obsidian Grandma: Head down, continuing to eat...

Lin Mao: Oh? Grandma understands again?

Obsidian Grandma: !!!

Obsidian Grandma: I don't understand! I don't understand! I don't understand!

Obsidian Grandma: What does that mean? I don't understand at all!

Lin Mao: Are you about to ask me something else?

Obsidian Grandma: Yes, yes!

Lin Mao: Come on, let me explain to you in a private message.

Obsidian Grandma: No need for that.

Lin Mao: Didn't you say you didn't understand?

Obsidian Grandma: I don't think it's a nice thing to say, I feel... ah!!!

Xing: Oh no, Grandma's impure!

Lin Mao: Is it possible that she wasn't clean to begin with?

I secretly hid under the covers to watch the young imperial uncle.

Obsidian Granny: I didn't!

Lin Mao: @ObsidianGrandma, do you dare let me do rounds?

Obsidian Grandma: Cough cough cough, no matter what, I'm still a girl.

Obsidian Grandma: How can you, a boy, inspect a girl's room?

Lin Mao: It really was hidden in the room.

Obsidian Granny: ...

Sitella's hand trembled, and she realized that she seemed to be... self-destructing?

Lin Mao: I usually keep it under the doormat, where there's a hidden compartment. That way, no matter how hard someone searches, they won't be able to find it.

star:?!!!

Xing: Wait a minute! Are you sure it's under the carpet?

Xing: I'll contact Pam right away and head to the Luofu Immortal Ship immediately!

Lin Mao: Not a buddy...

"Ok?"

Lin Mao suddenly stopped, narrowed his eyes, and looked around.

"..."
