Chapter 262 Exposure of Evil

Yura was quite indignant upon hearing this, but seeing her expression, Faliande didn't care and instead turned his head to look at Qiuhe again.

"From the moment I brought your two friends to the mountainside, Yura and Amber were already standing on the edge of that abandoned building platform."

When that girl named Navia called your name, you froze for a few seconds. You were actually quite surprised by our sudden appearance.

It's been a long time since we came out of the cave, but have you been staying there all this time? A normal person would probably look for other entrances to get back into the cave and rejoin us.

But when we found you, we just happened to witness you about to push Yura and Amber off a cliff. You were quite surprised by our sudden appearance.

Fearing we'd suspect your presence, you staged a scene, feigning composure as you approached to push the two of them off the cliff.

Then, using some unknown means, they melted the entire snow-capped mountain and created a beam of light that shot towards themselves from the sky.

With the plan succeeding, you fabricated a story about melting the entire snow mountain in your search for them, and then coincidentally encountering and eliminating the person impersonating you.

But in reality, this was all just a performance by yourself. I don't know what kind of powerful ability you have to melt an entire snow-capped mountain.

But I know your strength is definitely not simple. I didn't want to use brutal methods, thinking that this way I could drive you out of Mondstadt, which would be better for everyone.

But I didn't expect it to turn out like this. As he spoke, Fa Liande drew his greatsword, which was held horizontally behind him, and pointed it at Qiuhe, who was standing at the city gate.

"Now that everything is clear, draw your sword. I don't care what your purpose was in coming to Mondstadt; as the captain of the Savage Faction's knights..."

"I will not allow you to run rampant in Mondstadt." With a passionate speech, Fal's voice clearly positioned him on the side of justice.

At this moment, Clarinde, who was standing to the side, saw this and immediately drew her musket and pointed it at Falid's head. "Don't move, put down your sword!"

The outcome is not yet determined, and the debate is not over. Stop your self-righteous acts of justice. The Mondstadt residents, who had never seen a gun before, watched as Clarind pulled out an iron rod, and none of them understood what it was.

Although the Grand Commander didn't know what it was, seeing Clarin's expression, he knew that it was probably some kind of weapon from Fontaine.

“Falgar, put down your sword. What this young girl said makes sense.” Hearing Falgar’s earnest attitude, Falgar finally slowly lowered the greatsword in his hand.

Seeing this, Claudia also gradually lowered her gun, but the atmosphere at the scene did not ease at all after the two put down their weapons.

"Yura." A gentle voice came, and Yura looked towards the source of the sound, only to see Qiuhe calling her. "Yura, every word that Faliande said..."

"Everything you say seems to make sense. What do you think?" Yura listened to Qiuhe's question, feeling extremely flustered by the oppressive atmosphere and the pervasive tension.

All of this left Yura's mind in a complete mess. She absolutely refused to believe that Qiuhe was a bad person, but she also didn't know how to defend herself.

Just as her heart was shrouded in endless darkness and confusion, suddenly, Yura seemed to see a point of light shining brightly in the night.

As the light grew brighter and brighter, completely dispelling the darkness, Yura stared intently at the crystal necklace around Qiuhe's neck, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.

“The necklace, that’s right, the necklace!” Yura exclaimed excitedly. “Falcon. Akikawa didn’t lie; he really did save me and Amber back then.”

At that time, when Amber and I were standing on the platform, the Qiuhe in front of us wasn't wearing a necklace, but when that light flashed, Qiuhe destroyed the fake Qiuhe.

When Qiuhe reappeared before us, he was wearing a necklace, and that necklace was the very one I had given him! The necklace's pendant...

And the decorations on the rope—I didn't mistake a single one. Qiuhe, everything he said is true, he didn't lie!" After Yura's explanation...

Fa Liande's complexion visibly worsened, while Qiuhe, with a smile on his face, slowly walked towards Fa Liande, clapping his hands continuously.

"Oh dear, as expected, Yura has a keen eye for truth! Did you hear that, Falind? Now, do you have anything else to say?"

Seeing Qiuhe's smug expression, Faliande was speechless. "Ha. If you're speechless now, then it's my turn."

As soon as Qiuhe finished speaking, he instantly swiftly grabbed out with one hand, leaving a clearly visible afterimage along the path from Fa Liande's trouser leg to in front of him.

Before anyone could react to what was happening, they saw Qiuhe holding a piece of cloth in his hand, and it seemed that something was wrapped inside the cloth.

Faliande stared in astonishment, his eyes wide, as he looked down at his trouser leg. He then discovered that his pocket was ripped open, exposing even the flesh of his thigh.

Those around were astonished when they noticed this; Qiuhe's speed was completely undetectable, and before they could even see anything clearly...

He actually ripped off Fa Liande's trouser pocket. Qiuhe threw down the ripped pocket, but from within it, he slowly pulled out a test tube and waved it in front of Fa Liande's eyes.

"Tomorrow at noon, I will mix the poison from this test tube into the Knights' lunch, and then I will find a way to secretly put the other tube into the backpacks of those outsiders."

By then, the woman's outburst at the city gate that morning, followed by their poisoning of the food, would be enough to leave the outsiders speechless.

Moreover, at that time, they could also take the opportunity to point the finger at the Knights of Faerguson, since they dared to bring any outsider into Mondstadt. That would then be seen as Falgar's dereliction of duty.

This would not only solve the problem of outsiders, but also allow for an internal breakthrough, gradually overthrowing the Knights' rule. At that point, you could then draft a new system.

"And you owe me a favor, I'll repay you slowly later." Qiuhe stared at Faliande and muttered these words to himself, leaving everyone around him completely bewildered.

But when Falga heard these words, his eyes were already wide with shock, and he was drenched in sweat. Seeing this, Qiuhe smiled and handed the test tube to Falga, who took it with some confusion.

"This test tube contains some kind of poison. Last night around 9 PM, Falid sneaked out of Mondstadt to meet a masked stranger."

What I just said was what he told that stranger: Falcon had colluded with someone who wanted to usurp leadership of Mondstadt.

First, he summoned this woman to frame me, trying to pin a completely fabricated charge on me. Then, he came out pretending to be a good person, speaking up for me, and smoothing things over.

"He'll poison the knights' food again after noon." As Qiuhe spoke, he kept circling around Faliande.

Just as he reached Falami's side, the same thing happened again: Akikawa quickly ripped open the pocket on Falami's other trouser leg and pulled out a test tube.

"Afterwards, he would find a way to put this test tube in our backpacks, thus framing us, poisoning the Knights, and poisoning the innocent little girl."

"The snow mountain is plotting to kill Yura and Amber. With those three charges against us, it won't be as simple as just expelling us."
