"All right, let's go. I'll introduce Jams to you when we come back from the mission," Amber said as she led Eula to join other members of the Knights of Favonius.
"Let me say it again, I'm not interested in that man... But if you insist on introducing him to me, I guess we can have a drink," Eula replied.
"Hehe, got it!" Barbara smiled and nodded, then waved to the others. "Let's go, our destination is Dragonspine!"
...
Meanwhile, at the Knights of Favonius headquarters:
Klee tiptoed and held her breath as she quietly passed by Jean's office door.
Before she could celebrate, Jean's gentle voice came from the office. "Klee, come in."
"Yay!" Klee's little pigtails bounced, and she tightly held her small backpack, whispering to herself, "Normally, Jean never finds me this quickly."
"Thanks to Jams, my affinity with the Anemo element has greatly improved, and my perception of the surroundings is much clearer," Jean said.
Jean opened the office door, directly pulling the golden-haired little girl inside, and gently closed the door with a bang.
Klee looked at the closed door, pouting her small mouth, looking cute and pitiful. "Hmm, is Jean going to keep Klee in the Knights of Favonius again?"
"You won't be confined here if you don't make mistakes," Jean replied.
A trace of helplessness appeared on Jean's beautiful face as she sighed lightly and asked, "What are you holding in your arms?"
"A backpack!" Klee replied weakly.
"What's inside the backpack? A bomb?" Jean crossed her arms, her gaze filled with suspicion.
Checking Klee's little backpack every day was a very dangerous task because no one knew how many bombs could be hidden inside.
"No, there's no bomb! Klee is not the same as before. Please trust me, Jean!" Klee said.
"Are you sure there's no bomb?" Jean narrowed her eyes and reached out to touch Klee's backpack.
"Oops, no!" However, Klee jumped onto the sofa like a cat with its tail stepped on and curled up, protecting the backpack beneath her. "It contains Klee's newly developed secret weapon!"
"A secret weapon!?" Jean's eye twitched, feeling a sudden shock. Klee's secret weapon, this couldn't be!
For the safety of Mondstadt and the peace of Teyvat, it was necessary to find out what Klee had in her backpack. Otherwise, it would be hard to rest at ease!
"Be good and let me have a look. Once I confirm there's no dangerous item, I'll give it back to you," Jean said.
"Why, Jean, why! Ouch!"
"Behave and let me see!"
"No, Jean, please don't!"
...
Five minutes later, Jean looked at the items on the table and fell into contemplation.
A retractable fishing rod with a doodle pattern of Jumpy Dumpty, a bomb-shaped fishing float, and a bag of high-grade bait of unknown origin.
"Is that all? What about the bomb?"
"Captain Jean is always bullying Klee!"
Klee climbed up from the sofa, straightening her crumpled little dress, pouting and saying, "Klee said there are no more bombs. These are all Klee's custom fishing tools!"
"Sorry, I'm not worried about Mondstadt cough... I mean, I'm worried about you."
Jean also knew that she had hurt Klee's feelings, and her expression on her face became somewhat embarrassed.
"Since the backpack doesn't contain any prohibited items, why won't you let me see? And you even said these things are secret weapons."
"These are the secret weapons for fishing! Klee wants to show them to Brother Jams first!"
"You..."
Jean's vision went dark, feeling like her fragile heart had been hit with a critical strike of ten thousand points.
Ever since Klee started hanging out with Jams, Jean felt that her position in Klee's heart was at -1.
But now it seems that it's not just at -1, it's more like -10086!
"No, maybe I already have no position left in Klee's heart," Jean thought to herself.
"Captain Jean, can Klee go out to play today?"
Klee blinked her eyes, her watery big eyes filled with anticipation.
"What would you do if I didn't let you go out?" Jean asked in return.
"Um..."
Klee's eyes rolled, and suddenly she reached out her small hand and gently hugged Jean's slender leg, using a sweet voice, she said, "Captain Jean, if you don't want Klee to go out and play, Klee won't go. As long as Klee doesn't cause trouble for Captain Jean, Klee is willing to do anything. Yum-yum-yum, Klee will only cherish the Captain~"
"..."
Upon hearing this provocative speech, Jean's face turned pale.
It seems that the carefully nurtured little Klee is straying further and further down the path of mischief!
"Who taught you all these things?"
"Well, definitely not Brother Jams!"
Klee puffed up her chest, with an expression that she would rather die than admit it.
"Is it really Jams...?"
"Hey, how did Captain Jean guess!?"
Klee widened her eyes, looking incredulous.
There shouldn't have been any flaws in her words and actions just now. According to Brother Jams, Captain Jean should have been deeply moved and allowed her to go out to play.
"You, you keep learning bad things from Jams!"
Jean stuffed the little backpack into Klee's arms, waved her hand, and said impatiently, "Go find your Brother Jams, as long as you don't play with bombs, do whatever you want. I can't control you anymore."
"Yay!"
A radiant smile immediately bloomed on Klee's delicate face, filling the room with youthful vitality.
"Captain Jean is a good person! Klee likes Captain Jean the most!"
"Alright, stop acting spoiled, and don't learn to be slick like Jams."
Jean pinched Klee's soft cheek, gently pushed her small shoulder, and said softly, "Go on, be safe on the way, and give my regards to Jams."
"Captain Jean, aren't you going fishing with Klee? You also like Brother Jams, don't you?"
Klee ran to the door, then turned around, blinked her beautiful Cartian eyes.
"Who likes him?"
Hearing this, Jean blushed slightly and evaded Klee's innocent gaze, saying softly, "I have accumulated two days' worth of work that needs to be handled as soon as possible. Once I'm done with my tasks, I will go find him."
"Oh~"
Klee's expression suddenly became conflicted, and her tone turned sour, "So Klee can't have Brother Jams all to herself all the time? How annoying, Klee was the first one here..."
"What did you say?"
Jean narrowed her eyes. After breaking through with the Anemo Vision, her hearing had become more acute.
"N-nothing, Klee is going out to play now! Trot-trot-trot~"
Klee whimpered like a startled little animal, and then she ran off, disappearing from Jean's sight in an instant.
The cheerful voice broke the tranquility of the early morning.
"Brother Jams, Klee is here!"
