Keqing looked at the man calmly, having already been prepared for this question.

He coughed lightly and continued.

“This matter is not as complicated as you think. At that time, we detected that there were powerful monsters nearby and they were forming an encirclement.

There is no way to save hundreds of people, so we have to give up, otherwise, even this place will fall."

In the crowd, Kevin was surprised, but then felt a little happy about Keqing's change.

It turns out you're not that straightforward. You've been worrying for nothing.

After hearing this explanation, the people felt relieved.

There was nothing wrong with what Keqing did.

It's impossible to give up here just for those people.

This is human nature. When it comes to one's own life safety, even if Keqing's behavior is a bit cold-blooded, it is understandable.

After all, it's for yourself.

When people dispersed, Keqing came to Kevin and frowned slightly.

"Why don't you leave?"

Kevin smiled faintly and said softly: "How can I just watch my friend in trouble?"

Keqing looked directly into Kevin's eyes and sighed.

"The situation has gotten worse. You can't get out with us."

"Who said that? Maybe they haven't reacted yet. The reconnaissance team can set off immediately after they find out that the situation is safe."

Kevin had a lucky break.

Keqing is not so optimistic.

"You'd better leave, or you won't even be able to see your hometown for the last time."

"Okay, I'm not leaving. What do you want to do? Do you want to chase me away?"

Kevin acted like a rogue, and Keqing was helpless and even felt a little regretful.

I kept Kevin for a while in order to rebuild that relationship.

But I didn't expect Kevin to stick to me like a dog-skin plaster.

Manye blinked at Keqing.

"Brother Kai is like this, just accept it."

. . . . .

After the three of them separated, Kevin returned to his room again.

I started looking through several books written by Zhongli, trying to find some clues.

As I was looking at it, my peripheral vision inadvertently glanced at the table.

His expression suddenly became serious and he put the book aside.

He reached out and touched the tiny cracks on the table.

Since he was in the cave for a long time, Kevin basically stayed by this table, reading reports and thinking about future developments.

Whenever Kevin entered into deep thought, he would always look at the table inadvertently, without moving for a long while.

That is why Kevin can be sure that there are no cracks on the stone table.

With his brows furrowed deeper and deeper, Kevin stood up and observed the stone walls in the room.

There are not many cracks, but they are evenly distributed, both on the walls and the floor.

Kevin walked out of the room and walked around the area.

After walking a few hundred meters, I returned to the room again.

Kevin couldn't keep calm anymore.

Grab the few books left by Zhongli and try to find something?

But he had already read these books to pieces, so how could there be any clues?

These anomalies reminded Kevin of Zhongli’s last words of advice.

The cave is safe for now.

This means that it may be unsafe at any time.

But Zhongli didn’t say that.

Maybe he doesn't have much time left, but Kevin guessed that it's not that he doesn't have much time left, but that Zhongli doesn't know what will happen after he dies.

After all, this is the remains of a demon god, who knows what the possibilities are.

No, we can't go on like this.

Kevin thought of this and immediately went out and walked towards the reconnaissance team.

As I said before, the reconnaissance team should report to him immediately if there is any situation.

But several hours have passed and there is still no news.

Kevin quickly arrived at where the reconnaissance team was working and pushed the door open.

I found that there was only one person there.

"Have the others not come back yet?"

The staff member was wearing glasses and looked quite gentle, appearing to be a clerical worker.

The man with glasses pulled out a stool and gave it to Kevin, speaking in a very respectful tone.

"Yes, they didn't come back after the scheduled time. It's very likely that something happened."

"Why don't you come to report?"

"Lady Keqing said that you have resigned and we are no longer under your control."

Kevin slammed the table in dissatisfaction.

"Ah Qing, this is such a bummer!"

After complaining unhappily, she asked the man with glasses, "Does she know this?"

"Of course I know. We reported it to her immediately."

"Did she say anything?"

The man with glasses was delighted to see that Kevin seemed to be interested in taking care of these matters.

In fact, everyone in the reconnaissance team felt inexplicably terrified about Kevin's departure.

It's like losing a backer.

And now, Kevin seems to be planning to come back.

Immediately, he explained the whole story.

After discovering the abnormality, Keqing did not send anyone out.

He also asked people to prepare to seal the cave entrance.

"This is absolutely ridiculous! What time is it already?" Kevin was so angry at Keqing's behavior that he almost had a cerebral hemorrhage.

He slammed the door and left, ready to go find Keqing to argue.

As he walked on the street, many people looked at him and talked about him.

Kevin didn't care much at first, but the content of the words was too inflammatory.

He suddenly turned his head and looked at those people, then took a few steps forward and came to the person who said those words.

His face was dignified and his expression was extremely serious, which frightened the man so much that he trembled.

"What did you say?"

"I didn't, I didn't say anything."

"Ok?"

"Haha, aren't we speaking up for you? We heard that you're going to be driven away by Lady Keqing, and we feel unfair for you."

"Who did you listen to?"

"They are all saying it, I just follow along."

Kevin let the man go and his eyes drifted to a corner.

A dark shadow suddenly shrank back.

It's too obvious, well, let's see what tricks you are playing.

Following that person, we came to a relatively remote small house.

Kevin was not afraid of anything and just pushed the door open and walked in.

"Welcome, Mr. Kevin, long time no see, haha, it should be one day no see."

The person who said this was Mozafi, the merchant from the East.

He lowered his head, his face full of respect, walked slowly to Kevin, bent slightly, and acted like a younger brother.

Kevin raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "Just tell me what you want to do."

Mozafi said in the most sincere tone: "I want to hang out with you and be at your disposal."

Kevin casually sat down in Mozafi's main seat, crossed his legs, and spoke in a very casual tone.

"You have a good vision. No wonder you can stir up such a big turmoil."

Mozafi waved his hands hastily.

"Don't get me wrong, that unrest is not directed at you. I want to do something for you, such as helping you to overthrow Qixing Keqing."

Kevin's eyes turned cold and he stood up suddenly.

Mozafi was startled and was about to apologize when he was interrupted by Kevin's stern shout.

"You're so smart. Why didn't you ask me before you acted? Do you think I would buy it?"
