Traveling through the world of Paper Wedding Dress

Chapter 131 Kanoin Heizo

Xun Yuanfeng asked around and heard that Ping Zang had last appeared on Haizhi Island. So Xun Yuanfeng took Paimeng and opened an anchor point all the way to Haizhi Island.

Four days later in Teyvat time, Xun Yuanfeng arrived at Haizhi Island. Paimon said to Xun Yuanfeng, "Traveler, since we are here at Haizhi Island, let's go visit Xinhai. I wonder if Xinhai is in the Coral Palace."

"Okay." Xun Yuanfeng nodded.

The two arrived at the Coral Palace, and the guards at the door stopped Xun Yuanfeng with spears in hand, "Who are you?"

The guard looked at Xun Yuanfeng and said, "Ah, you are... You are the captain of Swordfish Squad 2! I'm Shibata, in charge of guarding this place. Captain, is there anything you need?"

Paimon said to the guard, "We are here to see Xinhai and to inquire about someone."

The guard said, "Master Coral Palace went to Narukami Island. He just left yesterday."

"In that case, then, Shibata, do you know this person?" Xun Yuanfeng briefly told Shibata about the missing person notice.

Shibata scratched his head and said, "It's that detective boy. I know him. His name is Shikanoin Heizo. He used to hang around nearby. At that time, Lord Coral Palace even asked me to follow him because he was afraid that he would do something bad. But later I found out that he was more like taking a picnic."

Paimon asked, "So have you seen where he is?"

Shibata replied, "Let me think about it. Recently, someone seems to have seen him in the area east of Coral Palace. If you need, you can go there and take a look."

Xun Yuanfeng thanked Shibata and led Paimeng to the east, lighting up the nearby anchor points along the way. When they arrived at the eastern coast, a group of yafu gathered around a wooden cage. The man in the wooden cage shouted to the yafu around him, "Brothers, I'm just a poor traveler with a cleaner pocket than my face. Please let me go."

Ye Fuzhong slapped the cage with his knife, "Stop talking nonsense and stay still!"

Paimeng pointed at the cage and said to Xun Yuanfeng, "Traveler, someone has been locked up by the Yefu people. Let's go and rescue him."

"Okay, you stay here." After saying that, he picked up the spear and jumped, landing next to the cage.

When the nomads saw Xun Yuanfeng, they shouted, "Who are you?"

"Don't worry about who I am, just let me go."

"Then we'll see how capable you are. Go!" A Nobushige who looked like a leader shouted, drew out his sword and gathered his strength. The Nobushigege around him also drew out their swords and slashed at Xun Yuanfeng.

"Hah! Cut off the rain and leave the rainbow." The water sword surrounded them and hung water on the ambushed people. "Two wind wheels stand!" It quickly stabbed at the leader, and the wind elements around it spread the water elements.

The leader blocked the attack with his sword and wanted to fight back, but Xun Yuanfeng stabbed out again quickly, and the shaking gun knocked him down, "Die Yin Lai Sheng!" The gun tip ignited with flames and quickly hit the wild ambushers. After being hung on the water, they were hit by Xun Yuanfeng. They were all burned by the elemental reaction. Under the severe pain, these wild ambushers couldn't even hold the sword steadily. The leader still wanted to struggle, but Xun Yuanfeng stabbed him to death with a few hits of the gun.

"Ah, the boss is dead, run quickly, he is the original god, run away!" A group of people got up and ran.

Xun Yuanfeng was too lazy to chase after him, so he turned around and broke the chain with one blow, releasing the person in the cage.

The young man in the cage smiled and said, "Oh my! Oh my! Who is this? I thought someone was so brave that he could beat these guys to a pulp in just a few moves. It turns out to be Mr. Traveler. That's not surprising... I really want to thank you!"

Xun Yuanfeng looked at the wine-red-haired boy strangely and asked doubtfully, "Do you know me?"

The young man nodded and said, "Of course, I knew this before you came to Inazuma. The isolation order can lock down this country but it can't lock down the magical stories of travelers. What's more, now that Inazuma is open, your story is a legend in Inazuma. I have been wanting to get to know you for a long time, but I didn't expect you to show up first, hehe..."

Paimon saw that the battle was over, so he flew over. Seeing that the man was still chattering, he asked in confusion: "Who are you? Why were you locked up by the Nobushi?"

The young man coughed a few times and said, "I forgot to introduce myself. I am the special detective of Tenryo-kun, Shikanoin Heizo. I would like to say hello to the travelers in a foreign land. I wish you a pleasant journey in Teyvat and a good mood every day."

Paimon exclaimed, "Are you Shikanoin Heizo?"

Xun Yuanfeng said: "Someone asked me to come find you."

Shikanoin Heizo scratched his head. "Oh, so, I am the protagonist of your story today? I have always heard that you would accept commissions from all kinds of people and help with all kinds of things. Is it finally my turn this time? Not bad, not bad."

Xun Yuanfeng asked doubtfully: "Aren't you curious about who commissioned it?"

Shikanoin Heizo smiled confidently and said, "I knew it a long time ago. Otherwise, your coming here is not a coincidence." Shikanoin Heizo analyzed Xun Yuanfeng, and Xun Yuanfeng was sure that he was an amazing detective. Shikanoin Heizo said to Xun Yuanfeng, "Can I see the letter of authorization in the hand of your stupid little follower?"

Paimon behind him quickly hid the letter of authorization in his hand, and seeing Shikanoin Heizo staring at him, Paimon said: "What... I... I'll just take a look..." Then he said angrily: "Hey! Who do you call a stupid follower! I came here to help because I was worried that the traveler would be in danger!"

When Xun Yuanfeng heard Paimeng say this, he stared at her without saying a word. Paimeng looked at the two of them in confusion, "Why are you all staring at me?"

Xun Yuanfeng said, "I'll take a look." Lu Yeyuan Heizo also said, "I'll take a look too."

Paimon crossed his hands angrily and said to Shikanoin Heizo: "Humph, he can be seen like this, what are you looking at? I won't show it to you."

Shikanoin Heizo waved his hand: "Don't be so stingy. After all, this is the first time I've seen the Mouth of God. I'm very interested."

Paimon asked in confusion: "Mouth of God? What is that?"

"Just like the Eye of God is an external organ of magic power, the Mouth of God is an external organ of speech. I heard that he himself doesn't like to talk much, so you who talk a lot, should be his Mouth of God, right?"

Paimeng was so angry that he stomped his feet. "How ugly! Even more ugly than emergency food! I'm not a mouth! I'm emergency food... No, no, no! You're so mad at me, I'm Paimeng! How dare you give me such an ugly nickname... We just came to rescue you."

Xun Yuanfeng said, "Forget it, Paimon." He turned to Shikanoin Heizo and said, "I'm curious what you are doing here?"

Heizo Kannoin stroked his hair, "This probably started during the war... The head of the Tenryo Bugyo at the time, Takayuki Kujo, secretly ordered me to investigate the military intelligence of the Coral Palace. But I've been annoyed with that guy for a long time, so I simply treated this trip as a public-funded tour. I heard that Kaijima is very beautiful. I can just fool around with the missions when the time comes.

The first night I arrived at Haizhi Island, I had a dream. The content was an echo from deep in the earth, which repeatedly drilled into my ears, like this..."

Shikanoin Heizo approached Xun Yuanfeng, put his lips close to his ear and whispered: "This island is missing something important."

Xun Yuanfeng pushed him away and said, "Don't get so close. I'm a man and I like women."

"Hahaha..." After laughing for a while, Shikanoin Heizo said seriously, "It's amazing, right? This island is missing something important. Did someone disappear from the world? What is that?"
