But Lin Yu has a spy named Fu Hua by his side. If Fu Hua notices something unusual, it is hard to say what will happen to him.
What a hassle.
With a nail always by my side, I have to play another person all the time...
[Playing another person? Oh, if you think about it carefully, you don’t think this is a difficult thing for you. ]
[After all, Fu Hua has lived for 50,000 years and is still the same as she was back then, so honest and gullible. Even if she joins Otto as a spy, she is too loyal to be completely cold-blooded to complete the mission.]
[In your opinion, once you get to know Fu Hua well, you will be able to persuade this not-so-bright Chi Yuan Immortal with both emotion and reason, and make him understand——]
Understand what?
[Otto, that bastard, is unreliable. The world belongs to Lin Yu! ]
Haha, that bastard Otto is really unreliable.
Holding a few cans of cold beer from Ji Zi's refrigerator, Lin Yu came alone to the balcony on the second floor of the small villa.
However, when he walked to the balcony, he saw a short figure who had arrived at this place earlier than him.
Hearing the footsteps coming from behind her, Bronya immediately recognized that these heavier footsteps were obviously the footsteps of a young man.
And now, the only young man nearby was obviously the man she really didn't want to face alone.
When Bronya thought of the questions the other party had asked her, she subconsciously wanted to escape from Lin Yu's sight.
However, the moment she turned around, her eyes and Lin Yu's eyes suddenly met.
[Looking at Bronya's slightly flustered eyes, you know that you have become a special person in her heart. ]
[A young soldier who kills without blinking an eye actually subconsciously wants to escape after seeing you. What do you call this? Ah, right, a fluttering heart! ]
[She's shy! At times like this, we should take advantage of the situation and pursue her——]
I'm chasing you, you big head ghost.
Even if you work five days a week and have two days off, please give me some time to rest at night.
Looking at Bronya who was trying to escape, Lin Yu took out a can of cold beer from the plastic bag and threw it directly at the girl in front of him.
"Well, it's a rare opportunity for us to chat alone, why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
"We are all companions living under the same roof in the future. As companions who will go through thick and thin together, I think..."
"——Some things are better to be made clear in advance."
.
Chapter 88. Little girls like you are really easy to fool
A companion who has been through thick and thin together...?
When Bronya heard what Lin Yu said, she instinctively felt absurd.
Before coming to St. Freya's Academy, the woman named Theresa Apocalis had a one-on-one conversation with Bronya.
In her vague memory, Bronya remembered that Theresa already knew her identity as a member of Anti-Entropy and Cocolia's adopted daughter.
However, knowing this information, she still took the initiative to invite herself to join Tianming.
Bronya...is she qualified?
At that time, the confused Bronya once asked Theresa this question.
Then the other party nodded directly and gave a very affirmative answer.
"Of course."
"I don't know what Cocolia said to you, but what she is doing now is to guide the Honkai explosion."
"Even if a super-large Honkai outbreak is triggered in an open, uninhabited area, a large number of Honkai beasts will be created to endanger the human world. Moreover, she chose Changkong City, which has a population of millions, as the location for the Honkai outbreak."
"This kind of behavior of taking human life lightly is obviously wrong."
Yes, this kind of behavior of disregarding human life is obviously wrong.
However, we who grew up on that snowy plain in the past did not have the time to think about these issues.
But now, thinking about it carefully, what Cocolia's mother did was obviously wrong.
If her plan succeeds, more children will be born, just like us, whose lives were destroyed by the second collapse.
This was obviously an obvious thing, but Bronya at that time...
"Of course, it's unrealistic to expect you to betray your adoptive mother right now."
After noticing the distress and helplessness on the girl's face, Theresa continued.
"But I also hope you understand that the fact that you are a member of Anti-Entropy means that we cannot send you back home like a civilian."
"Does this mean... Bronya is now a hostage?"
Facing the girl's direct gaze, Theresa spoke very directly.
"If you don't join the Fate of Heaven, then even if I am the head of the Far East branch, I have no reason to protect you."
"You are not only a member of Anti-Entropy, but also a close confidant of Cocolia. After Cocolia caused this large-scale collapse..."
Theresa didn't continue speaking, but the smart Bronya already understood what she meant.
Yes, the two sides are originally hostile forces, and this time Cocolia also acted as if she was joining the Honkai camp.
If the identities were exchanged, Bronya would never let go of a close confidant of Cocolia like herself, and would definitely find a way to torture her for all the information she knew.
As for the torture method...
As a young soldier, Bronya must know better than ordinary members of Sentence how terrifying these methods are.
In fact, I had no choice from the beginning.
Rather, Theresa Apocalis's actions had made Bronya too gentle.
"Why......"
"what?"
Seeing Bronya's melancholy and puzzled look, Theresa asked curiously.
"what happened?"
"At first you treated Bronya as a civilian, and you saved Bronya as the man of destiny, and Bronya understood."
"But after knowing that Bronya is Cocolia's daughter, why... do you continue to help Bronya?"
"Ah, well...do you need a reason to help others?"
Listening to Bronya's speech, Theresa was speechless.
"Especially a kid like you, who was tricked by Cocolia to become a terrorist at such a young age. I don't think the main problem for you to do these things lies with you?"
"You once embarked on a bloody path because of the teachings of your motherland, and Kokolia, as your adoptive mother, did not guide you on the right path."
"You have indeed done something shameful, but you are a person who only makes me feel pathetic."
"I founded Saint Freya Academy so that the Valkyries would no longer be used like tools by others. In this case - do you think I would leave a lost lamb like you alone?"
"Don't worry, after joining St. Freya Academy, I can tell them that you have changed your mind."
"And I won't force you to tell me the information about Cocolia. I can grant you special permission not to participate in the missions related to her."
......
After hearing these generous conditions, Bronya was stunned for a moment and then shook her head gently.
"Bronya, it's not worth it for you to win her over like this."
"Ahhh, this is so annoying - why are you so profit-conscious, little girl?!"
Looking at Bronya's expression at this moment, Theresa said angrily.
"If you don't object, it will be a happy decision."
"Come with me to the Far East Branch tomorrow, and we'll talk about the rest later."
Just like that, Bronya followed Theresa to the Far East Branch.
And here, Theresa did not reveal her identity for some considerations.
Originally, Bronya felt that her mood had calmed down a lot due to Theresa's half-forced and half-comforting words.
But today, after seeing Yuno's expression that looked like she might cry at any moment, she felt deeply...
Sin will not disappear from her just because others don't know about it.
After her emotional circuits returned to normal, Bronya really found that she had become "weaker" compared to before.
Even when she was 'walking' on the road, she was constantly distracted because of what she had done in the past.
After the party ended today, Bronya came to the small balcony on the second floor. To be frank, she was very upset and uneasy because of these things.
Only now, after meeting this man, Bronya discovered...
When I was alone with the other person, unsurprisingly, the negative emotions in my heart began to intensify.
"Ha, why are you so scared when you see me."
Looking at the girl who was becoming alert due to her body's instinct, Lin Yu opened the ice beer and took a sip.
"Don't worry, I'm in a good mood today and I won't do anything sudden."
"I really just want to talk to you."
Hearing Lin Yu's words, Bronya took the ice beer, followed suit, opened it, took a sip, and then frowned.
“…It doesn’t taste good.”
“This thing is originally a cheap consumable.”
After shaking the can in his hand with a sneer, Lin Yu drank the beer in one gulp.
"Just like our lives, to those in a higher position, our lives are just like this can of cold beer, just cheap consumables."
"...Mother Cocolia really treats Bronya as her daughter."
Bronya, who heard the hidden meaning in Lin Yu's words, immediately retorted to Lin Yu angrily.
"Even if she did something bad, Bronya believes that this relationship is not false!"
[Ha, listen, what a touching mother-daughter relationship. But now that you know what happened, I really want to say something——]
"Ha, that's why I said..."
After leaning on the balcony railing, Lin Yu put away the sneer on his face and looked at the scenery outside the villa calmly.
"Little girls like you are really easy to fool."
"Bronya's IQ is very high."
"Yeah, you're smart."
Without denying the girl's rebuttal, Lin Yu continued following Bronya's words.
"But it's precisely because you're too smart that you managed to fool yourself."
"I have seen the intelligence collected by our organization, so I know what Kokolia is doing."
...!
Could it be that destiny has always known what Cocolia's mother did? !
"The X10 experiment is a project she announced to end last year. To put it bluntly, this project is to use young children who don't know much about Honkai to conduct experiments related to quantization."
Sure enough, Tianming really knew all this. Is there a traitor among the radicals? !
"Cocolia may really have feelings for you. Maybe that's how it seems in your eyes."
After opening another can of beer, Lin Yu looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky and continued to speak to Bronya.
"And because of this reason, you believed that 'Mom wouldn't harm me' and chose to participate in the experiment."
"I saw the name of the friend you mentioned in the list I got - the little girl from Estonia, her name is Xi'er Fuleai, right?"
After hearing Lin Yu mention his best friend's name, Bronya instinctively felt her heart twitch.
