Q
Qingwu
Darkmask, here for the Chief's present? I placed it on the side.
Q
Qingwu
Tangtang Certs represent our Chief's appreciation and trust. I haven't even managed to earn one yet.
Q
Qingwu
Alright. Handover complete. Gotta run. I have biz —
Q
Qingwu
Would've sneaked one for myself if the Chief didn't beat people up for that...
Q
Qingwu
Then you better take proper care of them. The Chief won't forgive anyone who loses her special cert.
Q
Qingwu
Yeah. The Chief won't forgive you if you lose her special cert.
Q
Qingwu
Ah... Well... You know ... just doing some errands. I really gotta run.

Hey, can I ask you something? See anyone who's super suspicious?
O
Old Lady with Bad Hearing (Old Lady with Bad Hearing)
Huh —? Again? What's so auspicious?
Tangtang
Huh? No! It's suspicious! Saw anyone sneaking around?
O
Old Lady with Bad Hearing (Old Lady with Bad Hearing)
Come now, young miss. A pretty girl like you shouldn't be snooping around.
Tangtang
I said! I'm looking for PEOPLE who are SNEAKING around!
O
Old Lady with Bad Hearing (Old Lady with Bad Hearing)
Ah! Sneaking around. Oh yes, I did. You're the only sneaky one I saw today...
Tangtang
ME?! Sneaky?! How?!
O
Old Lady with Bad Hearing (Old Lady with Bad Hearing)
Oh, you are very sneaky, young miss. I saw people scampering away when they saw you.
Tangtang
SCAMPER?! Where did they go?

Old Lady with Bad Hearing (Old Lady with Bad Hearing)
There, they went that way.
Tangtang
(That's the big shopping road... Did he run off to meet his gang?)

THANK YOU VERY MUCH, MA'AM!

That dumbo bloke almost called the watchguard on me.

Ahem. AAAHHHEM! You there ... my good man!
T
Troubled Tianshi (Troubled Tianshi)
Huh...? Are you here to rush my final draft? I just need a few more days...! I NEED TO FIX THE GOODNESS OF FIT!
Tangtang
Goodness of fit? Sure. Exercise a bit more, I guess? Anyway! Did you see anyone acting all weird and sus?
T
Troubled Tianshi (Troubled Tianshi)
Weird and sus...? Not really. But I can ask that watchguard for you.
T
Troubled Tianshi (Troubled Tianshi)
Huh...? Where did she go?
Tangtang
No, no. Please don't...
T
Troubled Tianshi (Troubled Tianshi)
Li! We got a young miss looking for someone!
L
Li Zhui
What's going on?
T
Troubled Tianshi (Troubled Tianshi)
She was here just a second ago... Now that's really weird and sus...
Tangtang
Hey, boss. Seen a bunch of weirdos hanging out together and behaving really sus?
A
Ah Zai
And I was wondering if anyone would ask me that! Saw a group of four dragging some luggage who went past my place. I asked if they needed some food, but they ignored me.
A
Ah Zai
I think they were trying to follow ... someone who's... Ah! Yes! Someone dressed in black! They were walking super fast, too! I could hardly see them clearly.
Tangtang
Dressed in black?!
Tangtang
Curses! Are they after Darkmask?
A
Ah Zai
Darkmask? Yeah. There was someone with some darkness on their face.
Tangtang
Where did they go?
A
Ah Zai
The hot pot eatery. Saw them go in.
Tangtang
Thanks a million, boss.
H
Hot Pot Waiter (Hot Pot Waiter)
Come on in! We got plenty of seats! Dining alone or with a group?
Tangtang
Hoo. No, thanks! I'm good! Hooo. Did you see a person wearing some eye cover... And a group of four... They're following —
H
Hot Pot Waiter (Hot Pot Waiter)
Some eye cover...?
Tangtang
THAT'S RIGHT!
H
Hot Pot Waiter (Hot Pot Waiter)
Hmm. And is this someone dressed in black? And keeps talking about engineering and tech?
Tangtang
Exactly! That's the perfect description!
H
Hot Pot Waiter (Hot Pot Waiter)
And right back there too!
Tangtang
WHAT?! Are they dunking Darkmask into the hotpot?!
Tangtang
Darkmask! I'm here to save you!
Tangtang
Aiyo… My head! Ow!
???
Where did this little girl come from?
Tangtang
What the...! Huh ... who are you?
Da Pan
Heard someone's looking for me. Is it you?
Tangtang
......
Tangtang
No! You're not... I'm looking... Hey, nobody's looking for you!
H
Hot Pot Waiter (Hot Pot Waiter)
Is she here to wreck our store?
Da Pan
Just a little girl... It's okay! Get back to work! No big deal!
Da Pan
She's gone already? That girl's fast.
D
Distant Voices (Suspicious-Looking Stockade Resident)
...We delivered... Let's go and return to the Stockade fort.
Tangtang
Stop right there, scumbag! Had fun making your Chief chase you?
Tangtang
What...? Da hell is this...?
Tangtang
A detonator...?! *Qingbo Stockade expletive"!
Tangtang
Gotta holler for help ... but who...
Mi Fu
What are you doing sneaking about down there?​
Tangtang
W-Wha...? Why are you here...? I'm busy shopping. Got no time for you!
Mi Fu
Oh? 'Cos we have fancy boutiques in the drainage canal? Don't treat me as stupid, little kitty! Out with it!
Tangtang
I ... uh... I...
Tangtang
Darkmask...!
Tangtang
Yeah! Heard that, Captain Mi? Now go and fine your silly Wulingers and don't get in my way!
Mi Fu
Endmin, she's obviously here to... Hmph. Whatever. If you got it figured out, I'm sure you're on top of it.
Tangtang
Darkmask! Quick, get down here! I found a bomb!
Mi Fu
And I'd appreciate it if you'd call me once you're done. Thanks in advance.
Tangtang
But thankfully you showed up today. Owe you big time, Darkmask. I'll make it up to you.
Tangtang
Before we forget, just tell me the truth... How did you know I was here?
Tangtang
Meh! I'm starting to suspect you're a different species, Darkmask. Maybe they built you with an extra brain.
Tangtang
That little beady turnip?! URGH! I thought I told her to keep this from you!
Tangtang
The Stockade finally entered a truce with Wuling. Peace isn't easy, you know, and I don't want to mess things up...
Tangtang
But ... this is Stockade business. I didn't want you to get involved again.
Tangtang
Alright, then I guess I'll ... bend the rules a bit and let you help me out!
Tangtang
Let's track them down, find Uncle Shang's hiding spot, and friggin destroy all their plans to attack this city.
Tangtang
I'll do some scouting. Wait for my news!
Tangtang
I'll holler you once I'm done!
Tangtang
You keep calling me Chief and helping me out again and again. But I gave you nothing but trouble.
Tangtang
I just wish I could do something for you and your Endfield right now. If I couldn't do that, at least I shouldn't be getting in your way.
Tangtang
What ... did you just say?
Tangtang
The Fam... That's right...
Tangtang
SO! Those stinking losers got away! They definitely scampered back to Uncle Shang.
Tangtang
Hooo... Almost thought I was going down with that blasted bomb.
Tangtang
I even thought about telling the mad woman everything! Can't just watch the bomb go off.
Endministrator
(I'll look for Mi Fu first.)
Tangtang
Alright. Tell me about the four who sneaked into Wuling. I hope those losers haven't caused any trouble yet.
Q
Qingwu
Don't worry. I found their trail. Got one at Citizen Square. The other three brought something to that big shopping road.
Tangtang
*Qingbo Stockade expletive*! Fine. I'll grab that loner loser.
Q
Qingwu
Need help with that?
Tangtang
We sneaked into Wuling 'cos we didn't want to attract attention. If we move as a team, that mad woman is gonna notice and she's gonna start cuffing people with her watchguards!
Tangtang
Mad woman doesn't get to intervene in Stockade biz! And that's final!
Q
Qingwu
Sure. I'll snoop around and continue with my investigations. Holler me if you got new orders, Chief.
Tangtang
Hoooooo...
Tangtang
Thank Talos you're here, Darkmask. They'd have... Wait. Why are you here in the first place?
Tangtang
Hmph. I don't buy it. Let's ditch this stuffy place... We'll have a proper talk outside.
Mi Fu
How was it? Everything going well?
Mi Fu
Then Tangtang...? Hmph. Whatever. If she agreed to let you help, she probably knows how serious this thing is ... and how it has grown out of her petty competition.
Mi Fu
I know I need not worry about Tangtang if you're around her, but...
Mi Fu
...Just give me a call should the need arise. I'm always on Baker.
Q
Qingwu
Chief! Some Fam reported seeing the gang with some luggage. They just entered the underground canal near the Bureau of Swordmancers.
Q
Qingwu
I'm sending you the location.
Tangtang
Friggin fowl pecked my eyes... I'm never going to that lousy place ever again!
Tangtang
Underground canal... Luggage...? What are they trying to do over there?
Tangtang
Urgghh, Darkmask you little...! You could have picked any day, just not today!
Tangtang
Those losers sneaked into Wuling to cause trouble. Gotta find them before Mi Fu notices.
Tangtang
It cost us a lot to end that major screwup. I gotta get things under control...
Tangtang
I can't let Darkmask get involved again...
Tangtang
Qingwu should be done with her errand. Time to sync up.
Tangtang
Hurry up, Darkmask! You're the only one I can count on.
Tangtang
Ancestral Spring, help us! Don't let it go off!
Tangtang
Something doesn't feel right. Mi Fu should be hot on my heels by this time...
Tangtang
And here I am running around her place... Why isn't she acting?
Tangtang
Hngh... Gotta stop thinking about this. So spooky.
Tangtang
Maybe my sneaking skills got a lot better.
Tangtang
What's that noise... Did it come from beneath the water?
Tangtang
I must find a way to drain this pool of water.
Tangtang
Heh. That wasn't too hard at all.
Tangtang
This is super urgent. We can't afford any delays.
