The unique gray Roman curls and expressionless face were familiar to Mei.
Isn't this the troublesome girl who suddenly appeared and blocked them?
Damn, she actually chased them home.
The moment she saw Bronya, Mei was stunned for a moment and quickly showed a trace of vigilance. At the same time, she quickly drew the small sword from her waist for self-defense and stepped back a few steps to distance herself.
This obvious hostility made Bronya raise her eyebrows.
But it's normal.
After all, they were enemies not long ago.
Bronya could understand this, so stretched out her right hand in Mei's tense nerves and slowly spread it out.
"...Is that my hairpin?"
When Mei saw Bronya's action, her heartbeat raced with nervousness, but she couldn't help but be stunned when she saw the dark blue hairpin in Bronya's open palm.
Isn't this the ordinary hairpin she got?
She remembered that the hairpin should be with Kiana, but now it is... um... I'm afraid it was left in the building of ME in the previous battle.
Thinking back to the past, Mei frowned and roughly understood why the hairpin was in the hands of this girl.
But...
Now, what does this girl mean?
Why did she show her the hairpin? Is she here to return the hairpin?
No, it's impossible.
Mei didn't consider this possibility at all.
They are still enemies until now.
And as an enemy, it is absolutely impossible to return something, especially something as insignificant as a hairpin. It's really stupid.
Mei's statement made Bronya a little unhappy.
She frowned and said in a cold tone, "This hairpin does not belong to you."
Mei could not deny this.
Although, in terms of ownership, this hairpin was opened by her from the treasure chest and belongs to her.
But according to the above information, the real owner of this hairpin should be the person named Seele, right?
However, Mei was a little curious about Bronya's very certain attitude and reaction.
"How did you know?"
She got this hairpin from the treasure chest.
When Mei opened the treasure chest, she was sure that only she and Kiana were there.
The display of items cannot be opened for people who have not entered that space.
Wait, could it be...
Mei suddenly thought of a possibility and looked at Bronya in surprise.
Could it be...
"You are Seele?"
??
Hearing this, Bronya was instantly confused.
Why do you think I am Seele?
"Bronya is not Seele, Bronya is Bronya's name."
She frowned and emphasized in her childish voice without emotion, "But Seele is Bronya's best friend!"
"Ah this..." Mei was embarrassed because she guessed wrong, but fortunately, the answer was not far off.
It's not Seele herself, but at least she is the friend named Seele, right?
However, despite the embarrassment, Mei also got a lot of useful information through these simple exchanges.
That is, the girl named Bronya in front of her chased her home. Although it is estimated that it is not to return the hairpin, it must be related to this hairpin. At least so far, Mei has not sensed the murderous aura from Bronya as before.
"So, why are you here?" Because the existing information is not sufficient, Mei has to launch a direct question to Bronya.
This is also in line with Bronya's mind.
After all, she came here for this. No matter how much she talks, she will return to this point in the end. She is, as usual, with a blank expression, and she said:
"Bronya wants to know how you got this hairpin!"
"..." Mei was silent.
"That's it?"
Suspecting that she had misheard, Mei looked incredulous.
"You chased me to my house just to ask how we got this hairpin?!"
She really didn't expect that this girl named Bronya chased her to her house just to ask about how this hairpin came from.
"This question is very important to Bronya."
Bronya was quite serious about it after noticing Mei's contempt.
"Are you serious?"
Seeing the unquestionable look in Bronya's eyes, Mei was a little speechless.
But at the same time, she quickly entered a serious state and said bluntly, "Then the question is, why should I tell you?"
"In two hours... not half an hour, um... even now, we are still enemies."
"Why should I answer an enemy's question?"
The issue of obtaining the hairpin involves that magical space, and Mei will not do such a stupid thing as to reveal the existence of that magical space to the enemy.
But then again, even if it is not such an important matter, she also does not need to answer her enemy's question. Now that there is no big fight, it is already very peaceful.
She still wants her to answer the other party's question? She's purely dreaming.
Bronya was well-prepared for this. She raised her head and looked at Mei with her dark gray eyes.
"Whether Bronya is your enemy will depend on your next answer."
"...Are you threatening me?"
Hearing these threatening words, Mei narrowed her eyes, tightened the small sword in her hand, and said coldly, "This is not your base camp. Even if Kiana is injured, there are only you and that troublesome mechanical creature here now."
The two of them chose to retreat because of many factors at the time. If it was just the girl in front of them and the troublesome mechanical creature, it would only be difficult to deal with, but it was not impossible to deal with!
Bronya was silent for a moment.
Although she was confident in the performance of Project Bunny 19c,
But judging from the previous battle, if she puts aside the fatal underestimation of the white-haired fool, her first display of force, and the suddenness of Project Bunny, It was not certain that she couldn't defeat these two people in a simple head-on battle.
So...
Knowing that the situation was not so one-sided, Bronya's attitude eased a lot.
She looked at Mei and said, "Bronya must know this question!"
"So..."
Because this question concerns Seele, we must understand clearly.
"Let's make a deal!"
With a clear goal, Bronya asked Mei to exchange her own intelligence for the answer to this question in the current situation.
As for whether Mei would agree to this request, Bronya didn't even have to think about it.
Since these two people dared to break into the building of ME, they must know something.
Comparing the answers to the questions about these cards and the intelligence related to their own safety plans, the two were compared with each other.
Whether to agree to this deal was naturally obvious.
