*short chapter alert*

You and Bob casually sat with Klee by Cider lake, you sighed. "Klee, did you seriously...kill all the fish. AGAIN?" Bob spewed a cold gust of wind on the two of you, bouncing towards the dead fish piled next to Klee. He turned his eyes from the pile that was triple his height and size and then to Klee.

Klee waved her hands frantically, "No no no, big sister, Klee didn't do all this. Klee did go fish bombing, but not this much! Klee always leaves some fish to bomb later!"

If this was a cartoon, there would've been a bunch of black lines on your head.

The two of you crouched in front of the large heap. Klee kicked some fish to the side, she turned to you, her large eyes staring up at you innocently, "Klee counted the fish, Klee only killed twelve," she pointed at the larger pile, "Klee never kills over fifty." 

She sniffed, wiping away her non-existent tears, "Someone's framing Klee," her eyes swelled with tears, "Big sister. Klee- Klee..." she sobbed, "Why would they frame Klee?!"

You waved your hands, "Wait- Klee, Klee, I believe you. I'll tell Jean, she won't make you go to-"

Bob's large eyes blinked, being a slime, he didn't have a brain, but he was pretty sure that Klee was sniggering as you cuddled her. Klee stuck her tongue out to Bob, her tears gone and a gigantic smile on her face.

Jean sighed, "Klee... I-"

"Grandmaster Jean, Klee definitely did not bomb Cider lake." You, Klee and Bob were standing in front of the four. Aether was out doing commissions, and Albedo just happened to be in.

"Grandmaster, I promise you that Klee would never do this. She would never bomb this many fish, she has a habit of only killing less than fifty fish and if you look at the dead fish, you would find some differences in their ways of death from their bodies."

Albedo lifted a black back bass from the cart, "Only some fish has traces of elemental energy and gun powder." He lifted another fish, "But the majority of the fish... doesn't have any traces of elemental energy or gun powder."

You barely managed to move your eyes away from Albedo's stunning face, looking back into Jean's eyes, "Grandmaster, I suggest to send some knights to check all water bodies around Mondstadt. I suspect that it has something to d with the water. So Klee is definitely not the culprit."

"Oh?" Jean leaned back to the window. Her cold eyes glinting, "If my information is correct, after you met up with Klee shortly, you've came to me immediately and you had never been around any water bodies before that." She ruffled Klee's hair, "Did you receive any information from others perhaps?"

Your mouth gaped open slightly, was Jean monitoring you? It makes sense since she's the grandmaster and you had been quite 'suspicious' in her eyes since your first arrival inside the city walls, but to stalk you...

"...I can't say who but a friend of mines did tell me to stay away from the water." Did Sophia count as a friend?

Lisa giggled softly, "I thought that you only had interactions with us, Aether and the clothing lady. Of course, there's also Paimon and Bob... but you could always make friends in the Mondstadt dungeons right?" She shrugged, "So I would assume that your friend is one of the fatuus that escaped."

Your eyes widened for a brief moment.

"Oh well, I suppose that I really have to send some knights to check it out." Kaeya tutted. "Do you want samples to send to Albedo?"

Jean nodded. "Y/N, I'll trust you with Klee. Kaeya, send some knights to gather samples from all across Mondstadt and check for similarities. Lisa and Albedo will investigate. I'll try to find info from the Fatui."

Klee grinned widely, "Yay! Klee's going to have sooo much fun with pretty big sister! I promise that I won't cause any trouble!"

The sun shone brightly down on your face as you stepped outside holding Klee's small hands. You were originally planning to go to the bar to be familiar with the route so that you could hide from the knights quickly after Aether steals from the Cathedral but you could always do that tomorrow. You weren't exactly going to bring a kid to the bar, especially a kid like Klee who could bomb the entire city into smithereens if she wanted to.

You crouched down to her height. "Klee, is there anything you want to do?"

The girl beamed at you, "Klee would go fish bombing but there's no fishies to bomb. Um... Klee had also dug up Dodoco a while ago with big brother Aether, so Klee will do whatever big sister Y/N wants to do!"

"..." Yeah...you were definitely not bringing a cinnamon roll like Klee to a bar where a bunch of drunkards would be.

"Klee, how 'bout we go see the views of Mondstadt, you can teach me how to make a flower crown."

"REALLY?! Klee will bring you to Starsnatch Cliff then! But... it would be a long walk...But it's ok since you have anemo powers right?!"

Your brows furrowed slightly, "Who told you about that?"

"Big sister Jean of course! She knows a loooottt of things. In fact, Klee's sure that she's watching us right now!" 

"I- Does she do that usually?"

"Yeah! You don't need to worry for your safety when she's watching! Klee remembers the first time Klee went fish bombing and the Dodoco I made blasted Klee into the Cider lake and then Jean saved Klee in a big wooosh! Jean knows eeeverythingg, that's why Mondstadt is very safe as long as you're close to the city, and why there's very few monsters around."

You shuddered slightly, Jean could totally kill you with a few orders and no one would know. Everyone would think that it was just an accident. 

"Klee, hold on tight ok, I'm going to fly us there." Hopefully none of the knights watching has an anemo vision.

-.-.-

"Big sister Y/N, Klee's going to tell you a little secret." 

You laid sprawled on the green grass, enjoying the cool breeze with dandelion seeds dancing in the air.

"Yeah?"

"Klee... Klee might've contributed to the dead fish...in a bad way...and...Klee didn't tell big sister Jean..." Her voice dropped to a murmur.

You rolled to your back, "So? They accused you of something you didn't do."

Klee frowned, "A few days ago, some knights asked Klee for a map of Mondstadt. I asked them why wouldn't they just ask Miss Amber or Mr Kaeya but they said that they were being mean to them so they asked Klee. Klee...Klee had never ever seen them before, so I thought that they were new knights, but now..." Her head drooped down, her hands behind her back.

You sat up abruptly, "Klee, did one of them have faded green hair?" 

The girl stared at you, confusion in her eyes, "Klee thinks so? I'm sorry but Klee doesn't remember clearly."

"Of course... Sofiya." You muttered quietly. "Klee, do you want to help the knights out?"
