Bang bang ~
"Sister Lisa! Sister Lisa, are you asleep?"
Barbara and Amber arrived at Lisa's residence, knocking on the door anxiously.
"Who is it?"
Lisa had just dozed off when she heard the knock on the door, and her pretty eyebrows furrowed slightly.
She had gotten off work early to rest, all for the sake of her skin!
She wondered which unlucky soul was keeping her from sleeping by not sleeping themselves in the middle of the night!
"It's me, Amber!"
Amber: Phew ~ Fortunately, Sister Lisa isn't asleep yet!
"And Barbara!"
Barbara followed a beat behind and quickly added.
Creak ~
"Hah~ Why aren't you two little cuties asleep so late? What brings you to see your sister?"
Lisa quickly got out of bed, not even having time to change out of her pajamas, and opened the door for them with a yawn.
"Don't tell me you have insomnia and came to me for comfort? Perfect timing... my bed is big enough for three people to sleep without feeling crowded. Tonight, I'll let you experience a joy you've never known before..."
Lisa went to the bedside, patted the bed, and with a charming smile, glanced at the two of them.
Lisa's strange gaze made Barbara tense up, and she quickly hid behind Amber.
"Sister Lisa, it's like this, when I was patrolling outside the city tonight, I found a strange teapot... blah blah blah..."
With matters at hand, Amber quickly explained the entire situation of Acting Grand Master Jean's disappearance to Lisa.
"Jean... Acting Grand Master, has disappeared?! Where is the teapot you're talking about? Hurry and take me to see it!"
Lisa's expression changed upon hearing this. She immediately dropped her casual demeanor and began to think seriously.
"It's in Acting Grand Master Jean's office. At least, I saw it there when I left!"
Barbara replied immediately.
Lisa didn't have time to change. She put on her hat, threw on a coat, and hurried with the two of them to the Knights' office.
When they arrived at the office, they found a little girl in a red dress with a backpack sitting inside.
"Klee, weren't you grounded by Acting Grand Master Jean? Why are you here?"
Lisa patted Klee's little head and said.
"Klee is also here to help rescue Acting Grand Master Jean! Klee brought all her treasured dodges, so the bad guys who kidnapped Acting Grand Master Jean won't know what hit them!"
Klee pointed to the backpack on her back, which was filled with precious dodges!
"Klee, how did you know Acting Grand Master Jean disappeared?"
Barbara looked at Klee curiously. She hadn't leaked any information!
"It was Wood Knight Brother. Klee overheard him talking to himself!"
Klee claimed her hearing was excellent!
Amber's flustered expression when she left made Wood sense that something was wrong. He quickly went to check Acting Grand Master Jean's office and discovered that Acting Grand Master Jean had mysteriously disappeared!
Wood dared not spread the news, fearing it would affect the Knights' morale. After a bit of mumbling, he quietly reported it to his superiors.
"Klee, we know you're concerned about Acting Grand Master Jean's safety, but this isn't a child's game, and it could be very dangerous. You should stay out of it!"
Lisa pinched Klee's rosy little cheeks and gently persuaded her.
"Sister Lisa... Sister, you don't need to worry about Klee. Klee runs very fast, the bad guys won't catch Klee. Besides, the dodges in Klee's backpack will definitely be helpful..."
Klee had intended to call Lisa "Auntie Lisa," but seeing Lisa's terrifying expression, she immediately changed her tune.
Klee stated that she was so used to being chased by Acting Grand Master Jean that ordinary people would have a hard time catching her.
"Alright, alright~ Then you must be good and don't run around, understood?"
Lisa shook her head helplessly. Before the situation was clear, she didn't want to waste too much time on trivial matters. The priority now was to investigate that strange teapot.
"Mmm, Klee knows!"
Klee quickly shouldered her heavy backpack and followed everyone to look at the strange teapot on the desk.
"Hmm... If I'm not mistaken, this should be a Serenitea Pot refined by a Liyue Adeptus. This ordinary-looking teapot actually hides an independent space within..."
With just a brief observation, Lisa could guess the true identity of the teapot.
"Why would something from an Adeptus appear near Mondstadt?"
Amber was puzzled. Since the teapot was so precious, it should be kept at home and treasured.
"Sister Jean... oh no, I mean, was Acting Grand Master Jean captured by an Adeptus?"
Barbara clasped her little hands tightly, her face full of worry.
Adepti sounded very powerful. Could they, with just a few of them, defeat an Adeptus and rescue their sister?
"It's too early to jump to conclusions. Let me study it further and see how to open this Serenitea Pot..."
Lisa felt that Liyue Adepti wouldn't arbitrarily capture a high-ranking official of a nation without reason, so Barbara's worries were likely unnecessary.
After Lisa's research, she discovered that there was no magical seal or barrier set by an Adeptus at the entrance of the Serenitea Pot.
She then opened the teapot lid and led everyone inside.
"Wow, it's so beautiful here!"
Upon entering the Serenitea Pot, Klee exclaimed in admiration at the boundless grassland before her.
"Yes, it's really beautiful... Oh, wait, we're not here for tourism, we're here to save the missing Acting Grand Master Jean!"
Amber, looking up at the clear blue sky and the soft white clouds drifting leisurely, involuntarily echoed Klee's sentiment, but immediately remembered the purpose of their trip.
"Hmm... there's a very strong energy fluctuation over there. Let's go check it out!"
Lisa closed her eyes to sense the direction and, feeling an unknown energy fluctuation ahead, suggested.
"Hiyee~ Bad guys who kidnapped Acting Grand Master Jean, Klee is coming to find you!"
Klee "Hiyee'd" and then took the lead, running towards the direction Lisa pointed.
As they advanced, the energy fluctuation became more apparent, even Amber and Barbara could directly feel it.
But when they ventured further and saw the source of the energy fluctuation, they were dumbfounded.
They saw Jean wielding a golden longsword, chanting words.
"Holy Light Eruption!"
"Holy Light Judgment!"
"Holy Light Blessing!"
Beside Jean stood a strange man, clapping and smiling, saying something to Jean.
The two of them were laughing heartily, looking incredibly happy!
Weren't they told that Jean was missing and had been kidnapped?!
But would a kidnapped person look like this?!
Lisa shook her head helplessly, putting her hand to her forehead with a sigh. She had worried for nothing!
Barbara and Amber also reacted, realizing that they had worried for nothing.
However, seeing that Acting Grand Master Jean was safe and sound, the heavy stone in their hearts was finally lifted.
"Hiyee~ That big bad guy who kidnapped Acting Grand Master Jean, hurry up and let Acting Grand Master Jean go, or it will be too late when Klee blows you up!"
Only Klee hadn't caught on and was still running forward, challenging them.
