Chapter 266, the Investigation Doll Mission, Begins
"However, guests don't need to be too disappointed. The limited-edition statues released at this Rongcai Festival will not be sold in batches, and more will be released later."
Although Feng spoke with a smile throughout, the tourists clearly did not choose to compromise after hearing Feng's official response jargon.
"Will they continue to release more? Who knows when we'll get to go? I'm over a hundred people in line, and the guy next to me is even dozens of people ahead of me! You're limiting purchases to 500 figures, the number just doesn't seem to make sense!"
A middle-aged woman shrugged, looking quite dissatisfied.
The middle-aged man grimaced helplessly after being mentioned.
"Uh... I'm from Mondstadt, so I'm not too familiar with the purchase limits here, but... they are definitely selling out a bit too fast, aren't they?"
"Guests, I have received your feedback, but I just checked the bill again and I really didn't find any problems."
"Heh—in that case, let the people from the Heavenly Territory investigate this matter. I'll go and report it to the police!"
The middle-aged woman spoke as she prepared to turn and leave.
Zaoyou, who had been secretly dozing off to the side, suddenly became incredibly alert upon hearing the four large characters "[Tianling Fengxing]", her eyes even widening like copper bells.
"Heavenly mandate... to comply? No—no way!"
As Zaoyou spoke, she waved her hands vigorously in strong resistance.
Uh... May I ask who you are?
Looking at this tiny figure who had been almost invisible just moments before, Feng and the other tourists all looked at her with curiosity.
"I am... a professional in [Company Management]!"
"Huh? Are these matters under the jurisdiction of the Society's Enforcer?"
The middle-aged woman looked at the early pomelo while raising her doubts with suspicion in her heart.
"Eh... um... no, that's right! We'll investigate this matter, so... there's no need to go to the Heavenly Territory Envoy! They're very busy, haha..."
Zaoyou scratched the back of her head and smiled wryly, responding somewhat guiltily.
"Strange...why is Zaoyou suddenly so motivated?"
Paimon, floating behind Zaoyou's head, stroked his chin and asked Ying in a low voice.
After clearly hearing Paimon's voice, Zaoyou quickly turned around and reminded him.
"Shh—if I report this to the Tenryo magistrate, that Kujo Sara... will definitely come looking for me to ask about the situation! Then... my failure to buy the doll will be..."
As she spoke, Zaoyou's eyes revealed increasing panic.
"I really don't know what Ayato told you... that makes you so afraid of being captured by Kujo Sara."
"In short, unless absolutely necessary, do not alarm the Heavenly Commander!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Zaoyou shook her head repeatedly.
After receiving a verbal response from Zaoyou, the tourists reluctantly left the rooftop.
"In that case...doesn't the task of investigation really fall to us?"
Watching the tourists depart, Ying stroked her chin and began to think.
"Zaoyou, I sensed that you've been near the rooftop since last night. As a witness who's been there the whole time, do you have any clues?"
Xunfeng spoke while looking at her expectantly.
"Is...is that me? What a pity...I've been sleeping..."
After saying that, Zaoyou scratched the back of her head sheepishly.
"Have you heard any sounds while you're sleeping?"
