After Amber was regarded as a rookie by Kaia, she wandered around the city in a huff.

Although she was wandering around, she was actually investigating some clues of the Black Fire case.

For example, she had heard from the gate guards Swan and Lawrence that a strange man in a cloak and bandages disappeared when the carriage burned that day, and it was estimated that he sneaked into the city.

Although she didn't know whether the strange man was related to the Black Fire case, Amber didn't seem to have any better clues at this time.

"Humph! It's all Kaia's fault! Bad guy!" Amber walked to the square in front of the West Wind Cathedral unknowingly.

After wandering around for a long time, it was just night and there were no people in the square.

"Hmm? At that time..." Amber saw a strange man wearing a cloak and bandages under the statue of the wind god in the center of the square.

At this moment, the strange man was squatting on the ground, trembling all over, sweat on his forehead, eyes closed, as if in great pain.

Amber hurried over and patted the strange man on the shoulder: "Hello! Hello! What happened to you? Do you need help?"

With Amber's shouting and patting, the man suddenly seemed to wake up, gasping for breath, then stood up suddenly, shook off the red girl's hand, and stepped back a few steps.

Until he distanced himself from the red girl, the strange man looked at each other vigilantly.

Seeing that the strange man was so excited, Amber asked with some concern: "Are you okay? I think you look injured..."

The strange man did not answer Amber's words, but looked around very vigilantly.

"It's so late, what are you doing here alone?"

"What's your name? You're not from Mond?"

"Do you need any help?"

Faced with the red girl's chattering, the weirdo seemed a little irritated. He tugged at his old and dirty cloak and said in a cold and impatient voice: "I don't need your help. I'll leave now."

Seeing the weirdo was about to leave, Amber hurried forward and grabbed the man: "Wait! You're suspicious! You're here alone in the middle of the night. Are you doing something secret?"

The weirdo Pushing Amber away, he yelled, "Don't touch me!"

Amber was stunned for a moment, and said weakly, "Why did you push me away again..."

The weirdo saw the red girl's reaction, and his tone became a little lighter, but he still said coldly, "Can't you see? I am a person suffering from an unclean disease!"

"Anyway, I came here to find something, but now it seems that I can't find it."

"Anyway, I am not welcome anywhere, even in Mond. Goodbye!"

After saying that, the weirdo turned around again and was about to leave.

Amber shouted from behind: "Hey! Sorry to interrupt you while you are talking to yourself. Who said Mondstadt doesn't welcome you? Have you asked me?"

The weirdo stopped: "Uh..."

Seeing the man stop, Amber showed a strong smile: "Anyway, you want to find something, right? I am Amber, the scout knight of the Knights of Favonius. I am the best at this kind of thing, so leave it to me!"

"For a scout knight, vision is the most important, so we need to go to a higher place!"

Facing the endless Amber, the weirdo turned around and roared again: "I said! Leave me alone!"

"Hey!"

But Amber seemed not to hear it, and directly pulled the weirdo up and ran towards the clock tower next to the square.

"Great, the clock tower is not locked, let's go up!"

After saying that, regardless of the weirdo's reaction, Amber forced him to run up.

The weirdo couldn't break free, and said helplessly: "Why did it become like this..."

The bell tower was dozens of meters high, and the wind above was stronger than below. The weirdo couldn't help but wrap his cloak tightly.

"By the way, what's your name?"

The weirdo said coldly: "My name is Cole"

"Cole? What a good name! But what exactly are you looking for?"

"It has nothing to do with you!"

"Oh, don't say that, I, Amber, have never failed in helping people."

Then Amber looked at Cole again: "Are you afraid of heights?"

Cole didn't know why Amber asked this, but just lowered her head and didn't answer.

Amber walked directly to the edge of the bell tower. There was dozens of meters of ground below, but she was not afraid at all. Instead, she opened her arms like a bird:

"Every time I stand on a high place, my pain and troubles will become insignificant. If I think about it this way, my steps will become much lighter."

"

My heart will calm down, giving me enough strength to move forward again. "

Hearing Amber's words, Cole shook his head: "I really can't get along with you."

"You will think of these when you stand on a high place, but I will only think of the high gods when I stand on a high place. They make me sick!"

"The gods describe the picture of happiness for mankind. It seems that under the governance of the gods, everyone has their own happiness."

"But I didn't do anything wrong, but I have no chance to be loved by the gods. I have to suffer all kinds of torture, and the final outcome is destined to rot ugly in the earth."

"So I hate this perspective from a high place!"

"Because this is the perspective from which the gods appreciate their own courtyards. People like me don't deserve to see such scenery!"

"The gods are above, eagles fly in the sky, who will see the struggle of ants! "

Colai's thoughts drifted back to the hellish past:

When she was a child, she suffered from an incurable disease and was given to a missionary by her mother for treatment. However, the missionary did not think of treating her at all, but used her and a group of children as [raw materials] for experiments.

Every day, she was injected with various unknown drugs, endured various inhuman tortures, and performed various horrific experiments...

Pain, despair, fear, hatred...all kinds of emotions were deeply buried in her heart.

However, there is always a way out. Just before she could no longer bear the torture, the prisoner who imprisoned her A fire broke out in their laboratory, and she and a group of children escaped.

Since then, she has embarked on the road of exile. The fire in the laboratory burned everything she had in the past, including the memory of her home.

But during the exile, she also suffered all kinds of torture and persecution. People in every place regarded her as a plague god, fearing that she would spread the disease, and beat and scolded her, and even tortured her more crazily...

No one could help her, just like a drowning person, no one would lend a hand to her.

So, she would not lend a hand to anyone again...

"Hey! Hey! What's wrong with you! Wake up!" Amber saw Cole trembling again and sweating all over, and shook him hurriedly.

"Ah!" Cole was awakened again, just like a drowning person suddenly breathing air, gasping for breath.

After panting for a long time, Cole gradually calmed down: "You can't find it here, don't waste your energy."

"Can't find it here?" Amber stroked her chin: "Then let's go down and find it! "

"Let's go," Hearing that Amber was finally willing to let him go, Cole stood up and walked towards the stairs.

"Not this way, hehe!"

Suddenly, Cole felt someone grab his waist, and then he saw Amber holding him and preparing to jump from the bell tower.

"Ahhh! Let me go! Wait! Wait!" Cole was startled: "Do you want to hold me and die together?"

"Hehe! Don't worry, it's okay! I'm the flying champion of Mondstadt!"

In mid-air, Amber directly spread her wings of wind, and the two people who fell instantly glided steadily in the night sky of Mondstadt.

Cole felt the change in the airflow, and then he dared to open his eyes and look down. Only then did he realize that he had been holding Amber tightly without knowing when, and even buried his head in her chest.

Cole looked at the high-rise buildings that kept passing by, and the sunny and cheerful Amber, and his heart was mixed with mixed feelings: So, I can also fly in the sky...
