Xikui(Trailblazer), I'm Xikui, Chief Secretary of the Sky-Faring Commission. The Palace of Astrum is running a small event for visitors to better understand Xianzhou. Would you be interested?A dreamy one-day tour?I don't know if you've met him before, but the Sky-Faring Commission has a speed tester named Tantan. He'd hoped that the public could actively participate in traffic management and become more aware of potential road hazards. To that end, he is planning a "Xianzhou Speed Tester" experience.There are too few attendees because the event is too boring, so Madam Yukong asked me to help her get more people. Would you mind attending this? Pretty please?All you need to do is to record the traffic flow through Starskiff Haven. It's simple work. Just stand in the lane and count.Must you use people for this?This whole thing is mainly about participation. It's an experience for people to take part inIt is only when you get involved and count the starskiff traffic flow firsthand that you will get the unforgettable and meaningful experience that this whole event is meant to provide...Hey, why do I have to spell it out so clearly for you!Accepted MissionFired
Hit the streets of Starskiff Haven and talk to Tantan[]
Mission Description
There's a message from Secretary Xikui at the Palace of Astrum, who's heard that the speed tester Tantan is planning a trial program called Xianzhou Speed Tester.
Counting vehicles is supposed to be easy. If you have the time, go find the speed tester Tantan for a chat.
- (Talk to Tantan)
The Palace of Astrum sent me...
- Tantan: You're the person sent by the Palace of Astrum to experience being a starskiff speed tester, aren't you?
- Tantan: Hold this. We're starting soon.
Don't I need any training?
- Tantan: Stand on the bridge and hold on to the counter, then look down and count how many starskiffs go past in a set time period. Once you're done, just tell me the count.
That's so easy!
- Tantan: ...Are you saying that counting skiffs on the bridge is not challenging enough?
- Tantan: Now do you know the kind of work I've been doing all this time?
What a relaxing job...
- Tantan: "Is your job really that boring?" "Is this what people mean by getting paid to do nothing?"
- Tantan: You didn't say it out loud, but I know what you're thinking...
This is too hard!
- Tantan: ...
- Tantan: Hearing you say that makes me feel a little better. You're not saying that just to console me, are you?
- Tantan: Of course, you might also just be sarcastic.
- Tantan: Ahem. So, the position of starskiff speed tester is known by everyone in the Palace of Astrum as the bottom of the occupational order. Anyone who got sent here for a one-day experience would think that this job is an insult to their intelligence and skills.
- Tantan: Why do we need someone to supervise when we could just deploy an ingenium to measure the speed and issue a ticket?
- Tantan: Most people are just judging the job based on first impressions. Statistics can of course be done by a machine, but when there is trouble, it is still necessary to rely on humans like us.
- Tantan: How 'bout this, to give you an idea about how troublesome this job is, let's have a small quiz.
- Tantan: Starskiffs of different colors and models will pass through the lanes in Starskiff Haven.
- Tantan: You will need to remember the models and colors of all starskiffs that pass by within the specified time period, and I will ask you a few questions at the end.
- Tantan: For example, I might ask "How many blue passenger starskiffs went past?" That should add some challenge to the experience. What do you think?
- Tantan: We can start once you're ready.
Wait, I have some questions.
What are the rules again?
- Tantan: Starskiffs of different colors and models will pass through the lanes in Starskiff Haven.
- Tantan: You will need to remember the models and colors of all starskiffs that pass by within the specified time period, and I will ask you a few questions at the end.
- Tantan: For example, I might ask "How many blue passenger starskiffs went past?" You will need to answer my questions according to your observation.
What models are there?
- Tantan: At the moment, there are only two types of starskiffs allowed on the streets of the Starskiff Haven: passenger-type and cargo-type.
- Tantan: Freight starskiffs are differentiated by the amount of cargo they carry, and are typically colored either in red or green.
- Tantan: Although passenger starskiffs do vary, they generally come in blue, green, or white.
I don't have any other questions.
Let's start.
- (Starskiffs fly by)
- Tantan: According to your observation and counting only those that passed under the bridge entirely, how many white passenger starskiffs went past?
4
- Tantan: That's not quite right.
3
- Tantan: That's right, the answer is 3.
- (Obtain
Dust of Alacrity ×1)
2
- Tantan: That's not quite right.
- (Obtain
Credits ×10000)
Wait, I'm not ready.
- Tantan: No worries. We can start once you're ready.
Talk with Tantan and keep measuring traffic[]
Mission Description
You join Tantan's Xianzhou Speed Tester trial program. Despite Xianzhou's cutting-edge technology, this kind of activity is still needed to foster safety awareness. Tantan hopes you can test it again.
- (Talk to Tantan)
Would you like to test again?
- Tantan: I think we can try again. The more we try, the better we can see how effective this is.
No problem. Let's do it again.
...Whatever you say.
- Tantan: Come on, help me one more time.
- Tantan: Are you ready? We'll start whenever you are.
Wait, I have some questions.
What are the rules again?
- Tantan: Starskiffs of different colors and models will pass through the lanes in Starskiff Haven.
- Tantan: You will need to remember the models and colors of all starskiffs that pass by within the specified time period, and I will ask you a few questions at the end.
- Tantan: For example, I might ask "How many blue passenger starskiffs went past?" You will need to answer my questions according to your observation.

Wait, I'm not ready.
- Tantan: No worries. We can start once you're ready.
Check out the traffic accident[]
Mission Description
Just when you think this is going to be a normal shift, an accident happens. A speeding starskiff bolts along the lanes, hits another vehicle, then escapes... Hurry to the scene of the accident to see if anyone needs help.
- Tantan: It's a traffic incident caused by a speeding starskiff! Let's go see if anyone's hurt.
- (Approach designated spot)
- Tantan: Luckily we got here in time. I contacted the Alchemy Commission's apothecary and an emergency dispatch will be here soon.
The perpetrator ran away.
- Tantan: Let's split up. You stay here, I'll go after the perp.
- Tantan: I need you to look for injured passengers, contact their families, and help the Healers from the Alchemy Commission with the medevac.
Is there anything I can do?
- Tantan: I need you to look for injured passengers, contact their families, and help the Healers from the Alchemy Commission with the medevac.
- Tantan: And now, I've got a perp to chase.
- Tantan: You might be able to use this Diting, so hold onto this for now.
No problem, leave it to me.
Enough talk. You go catch the culprit.
- Tantan: I'll leave it to you here.
Check on the injured folks at the traffic accident[]
Mission Description
Tantan decides to split up with you. He dashes off to chase the speeding starskiff, and you are tasked with looking after the wounded. Healers from the Alchemy Commission apothecary are on their way over. Speak with the wounded and see if you can contact their next of kin.
- (Investigate the starskiff, optional)
- The excellent safety features of the starskiff is [sic] commendable, and there aren't even any marks on the starskiff that was hit.
- You should be more concerned about the injured passengers than the starskiff right now.
- (Talk to Injured Passenger)
- Injured Passenger: Sss... Ouch...
- Injured Passenger: Oh my, oh dear. Young (fella/
lass), I'm doing fine... The Alchemy Commission's dispatch will be here soon.
Do you need help?
No way you're doing fine in a serious traffic incident like this.
- Injured Passenger: I... I'm really... fine — Ssss, dang it. I must have strained my back or something.
Do you have any family you can contact?
- Injured Passenger: Family? ...I don't have any family.
- Injured Passenger: Oww... Young (fella/
lass), could you help look for my notes? That's worth more than my life. I'm asking for a contact.
- Injured Passenger: My notes... are really important. They fell out.
We can look for them in a bit.
- Injured Passenger: No. I'm gonna lose my job if I lose these notes.
- Injured Passenger: Come on, young (fella/
lass)... Help me out... My notes are really important. I'll handle it. I'll look nearby.
Do you have any contacts on your notes?
...Don't you have a communication device?
- Injured Passenger: No...
- Mei: Oh, please help old Mei here. I can't remember things anymore. My notes are all I have.
Help Mei find the scattered notes, and try to contact her next of kin[]
Mission Description
Mei doesn't have a jade abacus and can't answer your questions — she just wants to get the notes back. Perhaps there're some contact details on the notes and you can use them to contact her next of kin?
- (Talk to Mei, optional)
- Mei: Oh, young (fella/
lass), I'm fine. Just hafta lay down for a spell. - Mei: Please help old Mei here. I can't remember things anymore. My notes are all I have.

I attended the housekeeping exchange meeting of the Skyward Pavilions neighborhood for the first time. I didn't know that I can ask other housekeepers to fill in for me when I can't get to work, and return the favor when they need it. Now I know.
I have noted the addresses and contact details of other housekeepers, as well as the times when they can help.
I've heard from other housekeepers that their employers expect them to treat the employers' children like their own.
When your employer says that, your answer needs to be "Yes."
Luhui hasn't asked me this question yet. If she asks, I wouldn't know how to answer her, since I don't have children of my own.
Other housekeepers also said we should take the employers' words with a pinch of salt. Many housekeepers would let their own children play by themselves, feed the children whatever they feel like, and discipline the children for misbehaving. They would never dare to treat their employers' children like this.
The employers just want to hear that you love their children.
In short, just answer that you would treat their children as if they were your own.
Speaking of which, the young master was disobedient at the lyceum and wanted me to attend the parent-teacher meeting. I need to keep this a secret for him.
The teacher asked me to leave a contact number, but I don't have one, so I gave the teacher Ms. Luhui's contact information instead.
********1415926
As soon as Ms. Luhui receives a message from the teacher and tells me, I will go to the parent-teacher meeting.
I haven't told the young master about this yet. I need to remember to tell him next time.

LuhuiRear-ended by another starskiffBut she seems to be fine now. The Alchemy Commission's team of healers was able to get onsite very quicklyA traffic accident? OK... where is she now? I'll be right over...However, the set of Butterfly Immersia is a bit busy right now... I might not make it in time. But I'll try to get there right away. Sorry to have troubled you so far. May I have your name, please?A temporary speed tester.A passing trailblazer
- Some time has passed, and the Alchemy Commission's healers had taken Mei away.
- You should return Mei's notes to her when there's a chance...
Head to the Starskiff Haven docks and explain the situation to Luhui[]
Mission Description
Mei's been carted off by the Alchemy Commission apothecary paramedics and Luhui, who only just got the news, rushed over from work to Starskiff Haven. Luhui wants to meet with you again to express her thanks.
- (Talk to Luhui)
- Luhui: Are you (Trailblazer)? The person who contacted me? Has Mei already left Starskiff Haven?
The healers had already taken her away.
- Luhui: No worries. My schedule shouldn't hold up her treatment. I will visit the Alchemy Commission later.
You should head to the Alchemy Commission apothecary straight away.
- Luhui: No rush. Mei should get treated first, and I should meet you in person.
- Luhui: I bought some Xianzhou snacks on the way here as a small thank-you present. Please, take them. Thank you so much for all you've done for a complete stranger.
- Luhui: So... can you tell me what happened here?
- While enjoying the Xianzhou snacks Luhui brought, you recount the incident in detail...
- Luhui: ...I see. She doesn't use the jade abacus and has no relatives, so I'm the right person for you to contact. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known about this.
- Luhui: Mei doesn't have a family. She has been working as a housekeeper for a long time, and I'm her current employer.
- Luhui: Mei might not be the brightest and may even be slightly dense in the head. She's good at manual labor, but memory is not her forte. She keeps getting the wrong groceries.
Mei does seem a little dense.
- Luhui: Is it that obvious? For me, having her around day and night does make me more aware of her struggles.
She doesn't seem like a mentally challenged person.
- Luhui: You probably won't feel it from a quick chat. Having her around day and night does make me more aware of her struggles.
Why are you bad-mouthing Mei?
- Luhui: I'm not bad-mouthing her. I'm just concerned for her.
- Luhui: Sometimes she can't even communicate on a basic level, and I would have to repeat the same sentence a few times before she understood it. Being the way she is, she won't be able to handle the compensation on her own after getting into an accident like this.
- Luhui: I'll need to settle the compensation for her. If this were left to her alone, it would just fizzle out in the end.
You treat your housekeeper so well.
Are you really not family?
Should I anticipate a plot twist right about now?
- Luhui: ...
- Luhui: To be honest, I originally wanted to dismiss her today. It had been on my mind for a long while. If it weren't for this accident...
Why?
...You can't kick her when she's down.
- Luhui: That's right. This is not the right time to do so.
This is a good chance to do so.
- Luhui: Please don't tease me.
- Luhui: Actually, I wasn't super satisfied when I hired her. I only hired her because her asking price was low, for one. After learning about her experience, I also thought I'd give her a try as an act of charity.
- Luhui: Her memory and hearing impairment aside, she's rather simple-minded and has difficulty distinguishing between praises and admonishments.
- Luhui: Sometimes I get so upset and scold her, but she always laughs it off. The words just go into one ear and out of the other for her, and she eventually repeats the same mistakes, which makes me even more upset... I can't stand this vicious cycle anymore.
So why didn't you lay her off earlier?
It's not that bad. No need to fire her.
- Luhui: I'm only an average citizen who wants better housekeeping service. I just want to get a new housekeeper like everyone else, someone I can have an easier time communicating with. That's not asking too much, is it?
- Luhui: I have tried so many times over the years to change her out for a different housekeeper, but I just couldn't let go of her affordability, and sometimes I feel it's just too much of a hassle to make the change.
- Luhui: But most of the time, I feel someone like Mei would not be hired anywhere else. If I dismissed her, she would have no one to turn to. She might even struggle just to stay alive.
- Luhui: I want to handle Mei's compensation for her before having a talk with her. Hopefully, by that point, I'll still have the same resolve as I do today. Oh, right. You seem like someone who's knowledgeable about many things. Do you have any good suggestions on how to handle this?
I think you should fire her.
- Luhui: Hmm, I will take that into consideration. After all, the employment relationship is an exchange of equivalents, and feelings have nothing to do with it.
I would suggest that you don't fire her.
- Luhui: Is that so? I will take that into consideration. I guess I will stay in this dilemma for a while longer.
I'm really bad at giving advice.
- Luhui: No worries, I've already troubled you so much. I should sort this out on my own.
- Luhui: Don't let me take any more of your time. I need to head toward the Alchemy Commission apothecary. Let's catch up later. Thank you for your effort.

Go back to the scene of the accident and talk with Tantan[]
Mission Description
Tantan never caught up with the culprit, and could only return to the scene of the accident to interview witnesses. And that stubborn Mei seems to have escaped from the Alchemy Commission apothecary to somehow return to Starskiff Haven. Is she really feeling okay?
- (Talk to Tantan)
- Tantan: You're here. I found some witnesses at the scene, but it seems like the evidence is not complete. Did you manage to contact... Mei?
Mei has returned to the scene.
- Tantan: Is she made of iron? She was just in an accident!
- Tantan: Anyhow, we should hurry up and ask for clues about the incident, then arrange for someone to send her back to the apothecary.
I failed to make contact.
- Tantan: Really? I guess I ran out of luck.
But Mei apparently snuck back to the scene.
- Tantan: ...Can you finish your sentence in one go?
- Tantan: Got it. We should hurry up and ask for clues about the incident, then arrange for someone to send her back to the apothecary.
- Tantan: Let's ask Mei first before we look for other witnesses for their accounts.
Learn more about the situation from Mei[]
Mission Description
Luhui tells you that Mei snuck out of the apothecary to retrieve her notes... You've got some notes with you. Hand them over to Mei.
- (Talk to Mei)
- Mei: It's you... I remember you. Young (fella/
lass), did you find my notes? I found some of them.
I wanted to give it back to you.
- (Submit Mei's Notes x2)
- Mei: Thank you, there they are. I can't lose them. Oh, right, did you happen to see Ms. Luhui? *sigh* I made trouble for Ms. Luhui again.
I saw her.
- Mei: I really don't want to trouble Ms. Luhui. You don't know just how busy she is. Sometimes, she had to leave for work without having a proper meal.
Luhui is worried about you.
- Mei: Is that so? I'm good. I even got discharged. She doesn't need to worry about me.
- Mei: Oh, I can't let Ms. Luhui worry about me. She has so many important things to worry about...
- Tantan: Sorry to interrupt. I am Tantan, Speed Tester from the Sky-Faring Commission. I would like to ask about the incident...
- Mei: The Sky-Faring Commission? Does this need to involve the Sky-Faring Commission? Nothing happened! I feel fine! There's no incident!
Did you get hit on the head too hard, Mei?
- Mei: My head is fine. I'm fine, completely fine. Look, I'm doing swimmingly. I don't want compensation. I don't need it.
We should find the perpetrator to compensate you for your injury.
- Mei: I don't want it. There's no need. Hehe, I'm alright, mighty fine.
Then let's pretend this never happened.
- Tantan: Tsk, why would you echo her?
- Mei: Little buddy, listen to (him/
her). I'm doing fine, hehe. I don't need any compensation.
- Tantan: ...Madam, I'm seriously trying to ask about the traffic incident.
- Mei: Please, Sky-Faring Commission boss, have mercy! I don't want to cause any more trouble for Ms. Luhui. Let's pretend this never happened.
Don't worry. We won't ask for compensation for you.
- Mei: Thank you, Young (fella/
lass). This is fine as it is.
- Mei: Thank you, Young (fella/
Madam, please cooperate.
- Tantan: Please cooperate with the Sky-Faring Commission.
- Mei: Young (fella/
lass)... Okay, I will do what you want me to do.
- Tantan: ...I see you have some things to discuss. Please hold that thought. Let's complete the investigation first.
Did you manage to see the offending starskiff?
- Mei: I blacked out. I didn't see anything when I got thrown outside. It could be a blue starskiff, but it could also be yellow...
How did the collision happen?
- Mei: I was just boarding a starskiff. I didn't even get to tie my safety belt when I heard a loud bang from behind. Then I flew out. This is all I know...
- Mei: I remember hearing a cracking sound... Is the starskiff damaged? I don't need to pay for that, do I?
Do you remember anything else?
- Mei: I remember a discount at the roasted chicken store today. Ms. Luhui had always liked these unhealthy food... It's been a while since she had any, so I wanted to buy some for her.
- Mei: I can't remember anything else.

Inquire
- Tantan: Hello, I'm Tantan, Speed Tester from the Sky-Faring Commission. I contacted you earlier. I would like to ask you about the traffic incident.
- Clumsy Lady: Well, I heard a "thud" and ran outside. Seeing that person on the ground, I looked over toward the starskiff lane, but I didn't see anything. The starskiff had already escaped.
Please try your best to recall what happened.
- Clumsy Lady: I was quite a distance away at the time, I only heard noises like "thud," "crash," "whoosh," and "clang!"
Very descriptive sound effects. So, what happened?
- Clumsy Lady: Let me think. First, I heard some weird engine noises, and then the collision. I ran outside, but it has already disappeared... The most important part is still the engine.
I don't remember hearing that much.
- Clumsy Lady: My hearing has always been great. I didn't make those up.
That doesn't explain anything, does it?
- Clumsy Lady: What kind of attitude is that? It was a speeding starskiff. It's not like it'd slow down and wait for me to see it before driving away.
- Clumsy Lady: Oh, I recalled some information that may be useful. My hearing had always been good... I heard something like "thud," "crash," "whoosh," and "clang!"
- Clumsy Lady: I heard the engine sound of the offending starskiff. It was loud and different from ordinary starskiffs.
- Tantan: Thank you for your cooperation.

- Suddenly Excited Man: Oh, I remember you! When I ran after the speeding starskiff, you were behind me.
- Suddenly Excited Man: When the incident happened, I immediately sprinted like I'd never before. I just had to race the starskiff that knocked someone down! Honestly, I just like the commotion. Has been since young.
Did you see anything that might help the case?
- Suddenly Excited Man: Oh! Speaking of which, I— I— I!
- Suddenly Excited Man: I didn't really see anything. My takeaway was that starskiffs are faster than humans.
Did you see the starskiff registration place?
- Suddenly Excited Man: Right! The starskiff registration plate, that's right, that's right! I memorized it!
- Suddenly Excited Man: What was it, 2-5-6, 2-5-7, 2-8? 2-9? 3-1...?
- Suddenly Excited Man: I forgot!
Did you win the race?
- Suddenly Excited Man: Apologies, I lost. If there is a chance, I would very much like to have a rematch!
- Tantan: I remember that it disappeared after I pursued it to a crossroad. Did you happen to see which way it went?
- Suddenly Excited Man: Yes! The crossroad! Uh-huh, uh-huh, you reminded me.
- Suddenly Excited Man: It made a right turn there! I remember that very clearly.
- Tantan: The direction of Stargazer Navalia, huh... Thank you for your cooperation.

Testimony From the Suddenly Excited Man ×1)
- (Talk to Suddenly Excited Man again, optional)
- Suddenly Excited Man: I do remember this, though. When the starskiff arrived at the crossroad, it made a right turn there! I remember that very clearly.
- Tantan: The report from the Sky-Faring Commission says that the cycrane captured something. After you've settled Mei, come over to the Sky-Faring Commission.
Say goodbye to Mei and get her wounds treated on time[]
Mission Description
Mei has gotten back the notes she was fretting about, so she had better get back to the apothecary for a full check-up. Speaking of which, Luhui told you she was planning on firing Mei. Should you tell her?
- (Talk to Mei)
- Mei: Sorry I couldn't help much.
- Mei: Once I get the notes, I need to head back and continue work. Thank you, young (fella/
lass). Don't rush back into work. Get some rest first.
- Mei: Oh, that won't do. If I don't take care of Ms. Luhui, no one could.
- Mei: She may be gentle and soft-spoken, but she can command a film set with hundreds of people working. She's so capable.
Luhui will get upset to see you rushing back to work like this.
- Mei: It's okay if she's upset. She's always upset. But if you act nice with her and don't talk back at her, she will naturally cool down. I'm used to it.
- Mei: She has no time to worry about me. She's a huge producer who commands a film set with hundreds of people working. She's so capable.
- Mei: I should stop chattering about and go to the apothecary so other people won't worry about me. Young (fella/
lass), go ahead and get busy. Mei, there's something I want to tell you...
- Mei: I—is something else the matter?
Ms. Luhui wants to fire you.
- Mei: ...Is that true? I don't believe you.
- Mei: Even if it's true, it doesn't matter. I need to go do what I need to do.
...It's nothing. I forgot what I wanted to say.
- Mei: Hahaha, you scared me half to death. I thought Ms. Luhui might say something like "Mei is hurt, so it's time to fire her" or something.
- Mei: I'm okay. I can still work. If there's nothing else, Young (fella/
lass), I bid you goodbye.
Goodbye, Mei.
- Mei: Goodbye, young (fella/
lass).
- Mei: Goodbye, young (fella/
Find Xikui at the Palace of Astrum to get road data on the intersection[]
Mission Description
Tantan mentions that the Palace of Astrum had extracted very important data from the cycranes at the intersection. Combined with the on-site witness testimony, it might pinpoint the whereabouts of the starskiff that caused the accident.
- (Talk to Xikui)
Is this where we can check on the accident footage?
- Xikui: I've heard all about it from Tantan. I didn't expect you to have a traffic accident after only half a day as a speed tester.
- Xikui: Isn't it a talent of some kind to be able to show up every time an accident happens? Wouldn't you say so?
I like your sense of humor.
- Xikui: Well, if it's a talent , it must be put to good use.
Didn't think you'd be so witty...
- Xikui: Haha, I'm just stating a fact.
- Xikui: This pilot dares to speed at a place just outside the Palace of Astrum. They have no respect for the Sky-Faring Commission!
- Xikui: You and Tantan have done an investigation on the field. If we watch the cycrane footage, we should be able to find the starskiff that caused the accident soon.
- Xikui: Which cycrane footage do you want to see first?
Cycrane at the southwest entrance.
- Xikui: From this angle, it seems that there is some problem with the starskiff's engine.
- Xikui: Doesn't look like the original engine... looks like it's been illegally modified.
Cycrane at the southeast entrance.
- Xikui: From this angle, the colors of the different starskiffs are obvious.
- Xikui: I don't know how much eyewitness testimony you got.
Cycrane at the northeast entrance.
- Xikui: This photo is more useful, you can see different starskiffs going in different directions.
- Xikui: Have you found out where the offending starskiff went?
Leave the photo to me and Tantan.
- Xikui: I'll leave this to you and Tantan.
- (Obtain
Cycrane Surveillance Images ×1)
Chat with Tantan and try to deduce the whereabouts of the offending starskiff[]
Mission Description
Xikui shows you footage from the cycranes, and it's difficult to tell which starskiff was at fault from these images alone. Go over the testimonials with Tantan once again, and deduce the true culprit.
- (Talk to Tantan)
- Tantan: It's time to find the offending starskiff.
- Tantan: Through your inquiry and my investigation, we got some testimonies. With these testimonies and the cycrane footage, we should be able to find the starskiff we're looking for.
I want to see the photo again.
- Tantan: Cycrane footage definitely provides a lot of useful information. Which one would you like to see?
Cycrane at the west entrance.
- Cycrane at the west entrance
Cycrane at the east entrance.
- Cycrane at the east entrance
Cycrane at the north entrance.
- Cycrane at the north entrance
I have a clear understanding of the photo.
I want to go over the testimonies again.
- Tantan: I've recorded all the eyewitness testimonies. Whose testimony do you want to check?
The clumsy lady's testimony.
- Tantan: She heard the sound of the engine of the starskiff that had caused the accident. It was loud and different from ordinary starskiffs.
- Tantan: This may be because that starskiff has been illegally modified. There are some people who like to install military-grade engines starskiffs [sic] onto civilian starskiffs, resulting in a large sound when driving... In essence, this testimony is of great value.
The suddenly excited man's testimony.
- Tantan: He chased the offending starskiff to the crossroad and saw it make a right turn there!
- Tantan: We chased it from north to south. Making a right turn means that it went to the west.
Mei's testimony.
- Tantan: Mei's memory is not very good. I asked her several times. She said the color of that starskiff looks like blue, but it could also be yellow, or maybe neither.
- Tantan: Mei said she heard a crack sound... But this doesn't mean anything.
The testimonies are clear to me.
I already know what happened.
- Tantan: Which is the offending starskiff in this picture?
The first one from the left.
- Tantan: Alright, let me check this starskiff's record.
- After investigation and comparison, Tantan feels there is a problem with this thinking...
- Tantan: I checked it several times and it didn't seem quite right. I mean, it is possible that... there is something wrong with the reasoning.
- Yanming: What seems to be the problem? I used to solve traffic accident problems at the Sky-Faring Commission. Let me help you.
- Yanming: A blue or yellow starskiff turned west at the crossroad... It should be this starskiff heading toward the Stargazer Navalia.
- Yanming: It made a deafening sound. Its engine must have been illegally modified. There is a great chance that this starskiff is still in Stargazer Navalia. If you go there right now, you should be able to catch it.
- Tantan: Yanming's inference seems right. Let's go to Stargazer Navalia to catch the suspect.
- (Ends conversation)
The second one from the left.
- Tantan: Alright, let me check this starskiff's record.
- After investigation and comparison, Tantan feels there is a problem with this thinking...
- Tantan: I checked it several times and it didn't seem quite right. I mean, it is possible that... there is something wrong with the reasoning.

- Tantan: Yanming's inference seems right. Let's go to Stargazer Navalia to catch the suspect.
- (Ends conversation)
The third one from the left.
- Tantan: Alright, let me check this starskiff's record.
- After investigation and comparison, Tantan manages to find data on the offending starskiff.
- Tantan: The suspect has a criminal record of modifying starskiffs. The suspect departed from Stargazer Navalia before the accident occurred, then returned to Stargazer Navalia after the accident.
- Tantan: It looks like the suspect was testing their starskiff engine on a public lane. After the accident, they ran away. They should be in the Stargazer Navalia by now.
- Tantan: Your inference seems right. Let's go to Stargazer Navalia to catch the suspect.
- (Ends conversation)
The fourth one from the left.
- Tantan: Alright, let me check this starskiff's record.
- After investigation and comparison, Tantan feels there is a problem with this thinking...
- Tantan: I checked it several times and it didn't seem quite right. I mean, it is possible that... there is something wrong with the reasoning.
- Yanming: What seems to be the problem? I used to solve traffic accident problems at the Sky-Faring Commission. Let me help you.

Mission Description
By lining up the footage with the testimonials, you and Tantan deduce that the offending starskiff was heading to Stargazer Navalia. The suspect was using an illegally-modded engine and headed back to Stargazer Navalia for repairs... Mosey over and arrest ourselves a perpetrator.
- (Approach designated spot)
- This is the illegally modified starskiff. From its appearance, it's no different from an ordinary starskiff.
- The keel near the bow was broken, which seems to explain the crack sound.
- Without a doubt, this is the prime suspect of the starskiff accident.
- Proud Man: Hey, what are you looking at? You've never seen a competition-level race starskiff before, have you?
Never seen a beat-up vehicle like this.
- Proud Man: You are just jealous of me.
- Proud Man: My starskiff is just a little scratched, no big deal. If it weren't for those blind drivers on the lane, it would still be in perfect condition!
Is this really yours?
- Proud Man: Of course it's mine. You're not jealous, are you?
- Proud Man: You can take a photo with it if you want.
This is truly a masterpiece!
- Proud Man: You do have some taste. If you want to take a photo with my starskiff, that's fine.
- Tantan: Hello, I am Tantan, a law enforcement officer of the Sky-Faring Commission who manages lane safety. Here's my ID.
- Tantan: You are suspected of being involved in a traffic violation and illegal starskiff modifications. By law, we will conficate this starskiff and return it after the investigation ends.
- Proud Man: I'll believe you when I see the evidence. Where is the rule of law? Do you have any evidence to prove that?
- (Select items to submit)
- (Submit
Mei's Testimony ×1,
Tasty Field Nutrient Bar ×1 or
Dust of Alacrity ×1)
-
- Tantan: Come on. Can you take this seriously? Show him the actual evidence.
- (Submit
Cycrane Surveillance Images ×1)
-
- Proud Man: This... is my starskiff.
- Proud Man: Ugh, I was just bluffing. Didn't think you'd have this hard evidence.
- Proud Man: The Sky-Faring Commission only sent you to catch me, right? I don't think you will succeed in your mission!
- Proud Man: Stop them, bucket of bolts!
(Begins fight)
- (After the fight)
- Tantan: I am placing you in criminal detention for assaulting law enforcement officers of the Sky-Faring Commission. There is no way you can escape from this.
- Tantan: As for the victim... We don't have Mei's contact information, right? Please get in touch with her employer.
How about compensation?
- Tantan: Don't worry. Although I don't have much experience with traffic accidents, I am very familiar with compensation matters.
- Tantan: The Sky-Faring Commission will contact Mei later. For now, you can just tell them that we have arrested the suspect.
The Sky-Faring Commission will contact her.
- Tantan: The Sky-Faring Commission will contact Mei later. For now, you can just tell them that we have arrested the suspect.
- Tantan: The matter of compensation must be taken care of by the victim herself. You and her employer cannot represent her.
- Tantan: Leave this matter to me.

LuhuiThe Sky-Faring Commission has already apprehended the culprit. No need to worry about the subsequent penalties and compensationSorry for troubling you with all this. I'll help Mei with the subsequent penalties. But I'm a little confused. Do I need to continue talking with Mei about her dismissal...?In employment, is the exchange of services for payment the most important thing? Or is it the interpersonal relationship it created?Being paid for labor is more importantInterpersonal ties are more important
Inform Mei and Luhui about the results of the investigation[]
Mission Description
The suspect has been taken away by Tantan, and the follow-up work is well underway. Go and tell Mei and Luhui the good news. Now that the dust has settled, Luhui should also make up her mind about whether she will fire Mei.
- (Approach designated spot)
- Luhui: I've contacted a lawyer I know to help Mei with the compensation matter. It's all thanks to your help, (Trailblazer). Please accept this little token of my gratitude.
- Mei: Thank you, young (man/
lady). - Mei: Actually I don't need compensation. I'm grateful as long as I can still work.
- Luhui: ...
Take every bit of compensation you deserve.
- Luhui: If you don't accept the compensation from him, you're breaking the law.
- Mei: Alright, I'll listen to you. If you say I have to take it, I will take it. If you say I can't, then I won't.
- Luhui: Aaaah... You still don't get it.
Are you worried that Ms. Luhui will fire you?
- Mei: I'm not saying that... I'm just worried that Ms. Luhui would hate me for being clumsy. I can still work.
It's not Ms. Luhui who needs to compensate you.
- Mei: All my stupid words... That's not what I meant... Please don't be mad, Ms. Luhui.
- Luhui: Mei... I've been thinking about this for a long time. After your current employment contract expires, I'm afraid I won't extend it. I hope you can understand.
- Mei: Hah? What are you going to do then? Are you going to recruit someone else?
- Luhui: Ah, about that... Relax, I won't recruit anyone else.
- Mei: Relax? How can I relax? How are you going to do all the chores by yourself?
Ms. Luhui can finish them alone, right?
- Luhui: Ahh... That's right. I'll be fine.
Are you worried that Luhui is going to hire someone else?
- Mei: Ms. Luhui, it is best that you hire another housekeeper to help you.
- Luhui: For now I'm not planning to.
- Mei: Then... let me tell you how to do all the housework. That way I can put my mind at ease.
- Mei takes out a note and a vegetable shopping list and asks Luhui to take a closer look at them.
- Mei: From here to here, it's about the order of cleaning the rooms... Oh, another thing, you always leave trash in the kitchen and forget to take them out. Now that I'm gone, you need to remember not to let the trash pile up for more than one night.
- Luhui: Okay... What are these squares over here?
- Mei: The dishcloth is placed in this cabinet. As for the cloth for wiping the table, I put it on the second cabinet door in the kitchen, and the kitchen clothes are placed seperately...
- Mei: Look at this page. It has all the names of the foodstuffs that the baby hates to eat written on it. He won't eat these, even if you cut them into pieces. These are the meals I planned that will guarantee a superb supply of nutrition. You love spicy food, but don't eat too much or you will get a heartburn...
This is really detailed.
So this is the note that Mei wants to retrieve.
- Mei: I know my mind isn't that sharp, so I jotted down everything. Even if I'm gone later, these notes will still be very useful to Ms. Luhui.
- Luhui: In the "Water the Flowers" section, you drew a glass that is one-third full of water. What does this mean? Is this the amount of water you use to water the flowers each time?
- Mei: No. It's the amount of nutrient solution that must be used when watering flowers. Ms. Luhui said that every time the amount must be just right, it can't be too much or too little.
- Luhui: I forgot about this myself...
- Luhui: What is this page about? "A kind young (man/
lady) helped me find the notebook. Must thank her." That's me!
- Mei: Ahh. Ms. Luhui, I want to keep this page to myself.
- Luhui: I also have to thank her.
- Mei explains the details of the housework to Luhui, and you notice that Luhui has tears in her eyes.
- Mei hands the notebook to Luhui and leaves the room to pick up Luhui's child.
Luhui seems to be dumbfounded. Ask her what's going on[]
Mission Description
Luhui had already decided to fire Mei, but Mei was unfazed and was even worried that Luhui won't be able to look after herself. Luhui seemed stunned, probably from shock. Go ask her what's going on.
- (Talk to Luhui)
- Luhui: ...
- Luhui: Sorry, I got lost in thought.
It's still not too late to chase her back.
- Luhui: I don't know.
Are you regretting it?
- Luhui: Regret making a decision like this? Can I still...
Don't have regrets after making a decision.
- Luhui: Right, now's not the time for regrets... is it?
- Luhui: (Trailblazer), I just realized that Mei is not worried about losing her job.
She is worried that no one can take care of you after she is gone.
- Luhui: Yes, she is worried about me.
So what is she worried about?
- Luhui: She is worried that no one can take care of me after she is gone.
- Luhui: I've always thought of Mei as an incompetent worker. But in Mei's heart, I'm a family member she has to take care of... *sigh*
- Luhui: You've heard me complain about Mei many times. I didn't know that I was not a good employer until I saw her notebook. She has written down so many things that I said.
- Luhui: Considering Mei's slowness, I have no qualms about paying her well below the market average. When I'm in a bad mood, I always get mad at her and set a lot of "rules" for her, and she wrote them all down without complaint.
- Luhui: After looking at the notes, I realized that she has taken care of me for two hundred years.
- Luhui: Two hundred years must be a long time for Outworlders, and it's also quite a long time for me. Why did I take everything for granted?
Because Mei is just like family to you.
- Luhui: You're right. She's like family. That's why I took her for granted.
So Xianzhou has no popular stories about the old and the helpless?
- Luhui: Why would you ask this? There are no old people on Xianzhou...
- Luhui: You mean people on Xianzhou don't age like Outworlders, so they aren't afraid of getting old and ending up living on the streets?
- Luhui: What an odd but reasonable point of view. Mei won't age, and neither will I. I was not aware of Mei's hardship, nor was she aware of it.
- Luhui: If you think about it, not being able to age has its downsides too, huh...
- Luhui: By the way, I asked you twice before and was hoping for your advice. In an employer-employee relationship, should I think of Mei as an hourly paid housemaid, or as a family member who has been there with me for a long time?
- Luhui: But this time I don't need to ask anymore. I already have the answer myself.
- Luhui: I'll stay here for a while. I should stop bothering you now. Have a nice day.
- (Mission Completed)
Post-Mission[]
- (Talk to Luhui again, optional)
- Luhui: ...I'm just a bit confused.
- Luhui: Even though you are a complete stranger to me, I can already feel how kind you are. And I really want to do my best to return the favor.
- Luhui: As for Mei... I took her for granted and failed to notice all she has done for me.
- Luhui: Forgive me if I'm being nosy. But whenever you feel that being taken care of by a dear family member is a given, please don't take it for granted like I did.
- Luhui: I'll stay here for a while. I should stop bothering you now. Have a nice day.
