==Dialogue==
;(Talk to Hiromi)
:Hiromi: Yo, outlander! What are you doing sneaking around?
: I'm just passing through.
: You know, maybe you're the sneaky one here.
:Hiromi: Don't bother me with anything unimportant, outlander. Otherwise, I'll kindly have you accompany me to the Outlander Affairs Agency.
:Hiromi: I have no idea how you got here, but it's a criminal offense to interfere with a samurai's job.
:Hiromi: The Kanjou Commissioner will punish you severely should he find out.
:Hiromi: So I'd advise you to stay back — for your own safety.
: Kanjou Commission?
:Hiromi: Are you serious? Do you outlanders not fear the Commissioner anymore nowadays?
: I don't see this place being under Kanjou jurisdiction.
: You're not on the job right now, are you?
:Hiromi: You...!
:Hiromi: You're not wrong... But even a samurai has a right to some free time. You outlanders wouldn't understand!
: What are you doing?
::Hiromi: None of your business.
::Hiromi: Alright, I'll... let you go this time. Just please, leave me alone.
: Are you waiting for someone?
::Hiromi: ... So what if I am?
:: Don't worry, just asking.
::Hiromi: Please don't ask me pointless questions while I'm on duty.
::Hiromi: Come on, please stop bothering me. Please leave.
;(Talk to Hiromi again)
:Hiromi: Why'd you come again? If you've got something to say, hurry up!
:Hiromi: Don't interrupt a man while he's waiting for someone!
: Waiting for someone far outside his realm of jurisdiction?
:Hiromi: What are you trying to say?
: Not some proper folk you're meeting, eh?
:Hiromi: O—Of course I wouldn't... Are you questioning a public servant?
:Hiromi: I'm on duty and waiting for my informant... a contact...
: Speak up, I can barely hear you anymore.
:Hiromi: Ugh, enough! Leave, or you'll be coming with me to the Outlander Affairs Agency on charges of obstructing a personnel on official duty!
: Sure.
: Why, yes! Let's go, shall we?
:Hiromi: !?
:Hiromi: Are you not afraid of being deported by the Commissioner?
: I feel like yours is the more evident misdemeanor.
: Oh, I have my ways.
:Hiromi: ...
:Hiromi: Please don't report this matter to the Commissioner.
:Hiromi: But... I still don't get it. What is it that you want to know?
:Hiromi: I'm just a low-ranking officer. I don't know much beyond my duties. I don't think I'll be of much help to you.
: Well, I can help you.
: I just can't stand the way you're going on like this.
:Hiromi: I... can't believe an outlander would understand the honor of a samurai. You have my respect.
: Ah, a public servant and a honeyed tongue.
:Hiromi: Alright, please don't mock me anymore. I sincerely apologize for my rudeness. Please accept my apology.
:Hiromi: By the way, I don't believe that you've given me your name...
: Call me .
:Hiromi: Well, , since you're willing to help, I do have something to ask of you.
:Hiromi: Here's how it is. I have a childhood friend — an outlander — whom I haven't been able to meet since the Sakoku Decree came into effect.
:Hiromi: I was worried about her safety, so I started putting letters into drifting bottles in hopes that she'd receive them.
:Hiromi: However, she still hasn't responded.
: Drifting bottles, you say?
: You said "drifting bottles," right?
:Hiromi: Yes, I did. What of it?
: Are you referring to this?
;(Opens item submission screen)
;(Talk to Hiromi again if no bottle submitted)
:Hiromi: Yes, I did. What of it?
: Are you referring to this?
;(Opens item submission screen)
;(Upon submitting Someone's Drifting Bottle)
:Hiromi: This is it! Her badge is inside, too.
:Hiromi: I don't know how to thank you enough...
: You wouldn't mind me reading it, would you?
:Hiromi: Eh? What? Please don't...
: "Do you still remember the Uyuu Restaurant?"
:Hiromi: Uh...
: "We shall meet there..."
:Hiromi: Wait—
: "You will find money for wine attached herein."
:Hiromi: Okay—
: "But if you are not the one I was expecting to receive this letter..."
:Hiromi: Please stop reading it! , that was very, incredibly rude of you!
: Look at you, being all serious.
: Were you like that when you were writing these letters, too?
:Hiromi: Stop messing around! If you want to help me, just say so!
: Sorry.
: Please continue.
:Hiromi: So recently, one of her... old friends told me that she is doing well. They're both adventurers exploring the world, so I trust his intel.
:Hiromi: Unfortunately, between all the duties I shoulder, it's impossible for me to venture that far out...
:Hiromi: I was going to ask him to deliver my letter for me, and we agreed to meet here.
:Hiromi: But all he thinks about is treasure. He hurriedly left for the ancient ruins on the northern part of Narukami Island... and I haven't heard from him since.
:Hiromi: I've been here several times already, finding time every day to wait for him here. But I can't keep making excuses to sneak off.
:Hiromi: That's why I was hoping that you could accompany me to find him, .
:Hiromi: I suspect that it would take me a lot of time just to find those ruins, were I to go by myself.
:Hiromi: But with your help, we may yet save a lot of time.
:Hiromi: By the way, since you already have the bottle... you can hand it over to her as well.
:Hiromi: , can I count on you for this?
: Alright.
: Let's find him.
:Hiromi: Aye aye, let's head out at once!
----
;(Upon arriving at the area)
:Hiromi: He should be around here. Let's split up and search.
;(Upon finding Shun)
:Shun: Huh? Why are you here? And who's that you've brought along?
:Shun: Didn't we agree to meet alone?
:Shun: Eh, I understand. But if it's about "that case," then tell your colleagues that it's not time yet.
:Hiromi: This isn't about that... it's the matter from last week. The one you promised me about.
:Shun: Oh? Not that case? Then which one are you talking about? I'm a law-abiding citizen these days, you know! I'm squeaky clean!
:Shun: This isn't the time we agree on, either way. I mean, I just got out of jail two weeks ago.
:Shun: Oh yeah, I've got it now... are you trying to preemptively arrest me to gain some credit?
:Hiromi: No, that's not it at all... And what gain would there be in catching someone like you?
:Shun: Ouch! Not in the feelings, man! I'm a least a Treasure Hoarder Cadre. I'll have you know that I'm pretty well-known on the streets, too!
:Shun: No, wait, I get it now! You must be—
: You're a Treasure Hoarder?
: An explanation would be nice, Hiromi.
:Hiromi: *sigh*
:Shun: Man, not even knowing who the Treasure Hoarders are... Is your colleague over here new or something?
:Hiromi: Shut up.
:Hiromi: Listen, . Shun is my informant. Please, don't make an unnecessary fuss out of this.
:Hiromi: Look, , I came here with this outl— I mean, friend of mine, to ask you about where "Big Sis" is. I... I want to get in touch with her again.
:Shun: Oh... Hahahahhaha!
:Hiromi: What on earth are you laughing at, huh? What's your issue?
: Yeah, what he said.
:Shun: Hahaha, you're hilarious!
:Shun: So here's the skinny, Traveler. The three of us have known each other since we were wetting beds.
:Shun: This was back before the Sakoku Decree. Way before Hiromi became some stick-in-the-mud, too.
:Shun: *sigh* I mean, just look at what the Commission headquarters did to a good boy like him.
:Hiromi: With me, they turned a good boy into a public servant who protects the people. With him, they turned a bad boy into a Treasure Hoarder.
:Shun: Alright, alright, I'll be straight with you. See, you knew who we were before the Sakoku Decree was implemented, right?
:Shun: There you have it: that's why she left Inazuma.
:Shun: Bet you wrote about Uyuu Restaurant in your last letter, eh? Don't worry, I miss it too.
:Shun: We even had a drink there the day before the Sakoku Decree took effect.
:Shun: Everyone could tell what you were thinking, trust me.
:Shun: But well, isn't it a crying shame that your Shogun hates outlander drifters, eh?
:Hiromi: ...Let's just get back to business.
:Shun: Is any of this business?
:Shun: Alright, I'm done messing with you. And I'd love to help you too, but... I don't think I can.
:Hiromi: What do you mean?
:Shun: ...It's a long story.
: Oh look, my hand is itching! I think it wants to beat someone up!
::Hiromi: Wow, a coincidence. Mine does too!
: Get to the point, please.
:Shun: So, "Big Sis" and I were in Jueyun Karst not long ago. You know about Jueyun Karst, right?
:Shun: Home of the adepti, shiny golden Cor Lapis, light blue Noctilucous Jade, the works...
:Shun: That's where all the rare and exotic treasures gifted by heaven are buried, you know? They say that the adepti...
: Get to the point!
: I've been there.
:Shun: Oh, okay, okay. So "Big Sis" and I were casing Jueyun Karst... Everything was going well at first, and we were even able to conceal ourselves from the adepti...
:Shun: We planned on treating ourselves to something nice after casing that joint, and we were just about to head back...
:Shun: And then there was a whistling cry between the rocks and the sea, and two swords were drawn!
:Shun: Two people leapt in front of us — one man and one woman — yelling "Bandits! There's nowhere to run!"
:Shun: It was a pair of warriors from the Guhua Clan! That was it, we thought — we were done for! Oh yeah, and y'know, I've heard that man is named...
: Get. To. The. Point!
:Shun: So the man's called Sun Yu and the woman's called Little Que'er.
:Shun: "Big Sis" and I had to split right there. I've got no clue where she is now.
:Hiromi: Thank you, ! You saved me a lot of time there...
:Hiromi: The scope of our search has been narrowed down a lot. All you need to do now is... check with those two members of the Guhua Clan, and there shoudl be hope of finding her yet.
:Hiromi: This bottle and her badge... I can only rest easy after I've returned both of these to her.
:Hiromi: , I'm embarrassed to ask, but can you please help me out?
: You're not going yourself?
:Hiromi: I... I have other duties. It will be hard for me to leave.
:Shun: Ooh, "I have other duties." Aah, "It will be hard for me to leave~"
:Shun: Hmph. You're useless!
:Shun: How can you take yourself seriously, what with your pathetic salary and having to flatter your superiors constantly?
: ...
: Do you believe him?
::Hiromi: Shun's a pain and he's by no means a good man, but I can trust him.
::Shun: Hmph. Well, at least you've got a conscience.
:Shun: It's getting late, anyway. You should go back to your post.
:Shun: Ah, I don't know what to say... You want to be a good public servant and a lackey of the Commissioner...
:Shun: Yet you can't let go of our friendship or forget the throbbing of your heart...
:Shun: Even though your paths have diverged so much.
:Shun: You don't have the guts to make your own choices. You're just a wuss who throws your duties to others.
:Shun: ...But don't you worry, those choices will come back to you in the end.
:Shun: When that time comes, you won't be able to hide anymore.
:Hiromi: ...
:Hiromi: ...Don't you lecture me.
:Shun: That's right, that's right! How could I forget! I'm an outlander thief, and you're a public servant. You should be the one lecturing me!
:Shun: Well, Traveler, looks like it's your time to save the day again.
:Shun: I'm not gonna play house with this petty public servant a second longer. I've got my own job to do.
: You alright over there?
: Need some help?
:Hiromi: No, I'm fine, I'm fine.
:Hiromi: Well, he wasn't speaking complete nonsense.
:Hiromi: But I'm afraid that I still need you to do this for me, .
: You're as stubborn as a mule.
: Just this once.
:Hiromi: Thanks... I will seize the next opportunity when it comes along with my own hands.
:Hiromi: Well, I'd best be back soon, or my superior will get mad. Thanks again for your help, .
:Hiromi: Take care of yourself! If anything urgent should crop up, you know where to find me in Ritou.
;(Talk to Shun again)
:Shun: If you've got something to say, say it fast. Us Treasure Hoarders, our time's not yours for the wastin'.
: So, about Hiromi...
:Shun: Ah, he's a good lad... But he's a big baby, too. He needs a bit more time to grow.
:Shun: So I say, but in the end, being immature is better than being evil.
:Shun: He has his livelihood and his responsibilities...
:Shun: It's not all his fault that he's scared to make choices.
:Shun: At least he's still got some choices to make.

;(Speak to Little Que'er)
:Little Que'er: If you have anything to say, please talk to my senior disciple. I know you don't like listening to me anyway.
:Little Que'er: Hmph... No one likes to listen to me...
;(Speak to Sun Yu)
:Sun Yu: Ah, it's you, Traveler. Your great name is known through Liyue Harbor. Might I inquire as to why you have elected to grace us with your...
: You're talking all funny.
:Sun Yu: Ah. I am presently trying to teach Que'er how to treat people with the proper etiquette. As the saying goes, "Those without credibility have no leg to stand on, and those without etiquette..."
: Fair, but there's no need to be so formal.
: You were giving me goosebumps..
:Sun Yu: Alright. Then, may I help you?
: I'm looking for a certain female thief.
:Sun Yu: Oh, so you have come to perform the chivalrous act of hunting down criminals. The Guhua Clan will definitely support that! What aid may we lend you?
: The two of you went after her once.
: Do you still have any impression of her?
:Sun Yu: Now that you mention it, I do have an impression of just such an incident.
:Sun Yu: It happened about a week ago. Que'er and I were wandering these mountains and training when we were interrupted by two thieves.
:Sun Yu: We rose up and made to help the adepti keep their paradise clean of such unwanted intruders...
:Sun Yu: We pursued the two thieves deep into Mt. Hulao, only to see their shadows suddenly rise and fall, rise and fall...
: Then what happened...?
:Sun Yu: Suddenly, one of the shadows disappeared. I said, "Que'er, this must be a trap! Don't fall for it!" Then we began to chase the female thief...
:Sun Yu: We climbed Mt. Hulao through rock, stone, cave, and cloud...
:Sun Yu: In short, we chased them up and down, up and down, and up and down...
: Uh huh. And then?
:Sun Yu: We heard a *puff*!
:Sun Yu: And then the female thief was gone.
:Sun Yu: Little Que'er and I searched for her for a long time, but we couldn't find any trace. We thought that she must fallen off the cliffs.
:Sun Yu: Or perhaps she was so agile that she gave us the slip. That's possible as well.
:Sun Yu: That's all I know. I cannot be sure if it'll be of use to you, but...
: Thanks for your help!
: No, it wasn't completely useless...
:Sun Yu: Ah, I am glad that we were able to help! By the way, I also saw a few Qingxin on the mountain's summit that seemed quite lovely — beyond the pale, even. I wonder if...
: Taking my leave now!
;(Speak to Sun Yu again)
:Sun Yu: Please go after those bandits. Don't let me slow you down.
:Sun Yu: Oh! I see! Then you must be here to help me—
: By your leave!
----
;(Break the Amber Rock and speak with Yan'er)
:Yan'er: *cough* *cough* *panting* Phew, thought I'd never get out!
:Yan'er: Thanks for saving my life, stranger...?
:Yan'er: Eh!? It's you!
: You're...
:Yan'er: Aren't you that... that...!
: Oh, so it's "that"...
:Yan'er: Yes! And that time in Qingce, too... that...!
: Yeah. Definitely "that."
:Yan'er: Yes! That's right! So... did you get any mileage out of those Chi remains?
: Hardly.
: Everything they said I would.
:Yan'er: Ah-hahahaha!
:Yan'er: Ah, you're something, alright. So it really was you who turned my brothers inside-out back in Qingce Village.
:Yan'er: Well, regardless, you have my thanks for saving my life.
:Yan'er: Otherwise, I don't know how long I would have been trapped in this accursed amber. It was awful in there...
:Yan'er: The vaunted adepti of Jueyun Karst — a pack of petty jerks, I tell you!
: The adeptus saved your life, you know.
: Just saying, you're still in their territory.
:Yan'er: Hehe, you're right.
:Yan'er: I accidentally fell into this pit back when I was trying to avoid that crazy couple.
:Yan'er: But thanks to Mountain Spitter wrapping me up in amber from way over in his abode, I wasn't injured.
:Yan'er: Well, he's not an avid finisher of what he starts, seeing as how he didn't let me out afterwards.
: The adeptus was probably trying to punish you, too.
:Yan'er: Makes sense, hahaha!
:Yan'er: Alright, alright. I'm done laughing now. Come on, let's get out of this place.
;(Upon riding the upwards wind current)
:Yan'er: Must be nice having a wind glider. It's just a shame that mine broke a good while ago, or I wouldn't have needed you to rescue me.
;(Arrive at the highlighted location at the top of the hole)
:Yan'er: So, I suppose that you've got something you need my help with, then!
: Oh, I was just passing through.
: Wait, how did you know?
:Yan'er: Hah! You can't fool me.
:Yan'er: You outlanders have faces that can hide no secrets.
:Yan'er: Well then, what's the matter? Did you finally remember that you might have to arrest me, O Hero of Liyue?
: Please take this.
;(Opens item submission screen)
;(Talk to Yan'er again if no bottle submitted)
:Yan'er: Well then, what's the matter? Did you finally remember that you might have to arrest me, O Hero of Liyue?
: Please take this.
;(Opens item submission screen)
;(Upon submitting Someone's Drifting Bottle)
:Yan'er: Oh, is this a gift? Thanks!
: It's from Hiromi.
:Yan'er: Hiromi... who's that?
: Don't you know each other?
: He said he misses you.
:Yan'er: Sorry. I don't know any officer who catches thieves.
:Yan'er: Especially idiots. I don't know any of them.
:Yan'er: However... please thank him for returning the badge.
:Yan'er: Also, the Uyuu Restaurant seems like a fine place. I will go there for drinks when I am free.
:Yan'er: Go for a few drinks and get to know that idiot along the way.
----
;(Go back and find Hiromi)
:Hiromi: So, did you manage to get any news of "Big Sis"?
: We've spoken, aye.
:Hiromi: What did she say? Don't tell me she's already forgotten about me?
: She doesn't know a Hiromi.
:Hiromi: But...!
: Well, that's because she can't get to know any public servants.
:Hiromi: ...
: Idiotic ones least of all.
:Hiromi: Uhh...
: Still, she thinks that...
:Hiromi: She thinks that?
: That she can give it a try.
:Hiromi: Uh...?
: Sounds like a date, doesn't it?
:Hiromi: Eh! Eh!? Is that how you see it?
: Is that so strange...?
:Hiromi: N—No... it's just... I wasn't expecting this response.
: I'll go if you won't.
:Hiromi: Wha—! No! There's no need for that! I can take care of this myself!
:Hiromi: But... she didn't mention when she'll "try to get to know me," did she?
: I'm afraid she couldn't spill the beans then.
: She is a Treasure Hoarder, after all...
:Hiromi: Yes, you're right... Anyway, you have my thanks, .
:Hiromi: Perhaps I still need time to digest everything that she said. Well, I can't claim to be disappointed with this answer either way.
:Hiromi: Sorry for the trouble. Here's your payment.
: Don't forget, now: "Uyuu Restaurant."
:Hiromi: I got it. Thank you!
:Hiromi: By the way, , I wish you all the best here in Inazuma.
