Chapter 152 The 3 AM Brodman Interrogation
Let's throw a celebration party!
"Great!"
On the way back to St. Freya, Theresa suddenly felt like throwing a party.
Although Theresa had been scolding the group for breaking the rules, the excitement of their successful operation overshadowed everything: they had not only obtained the Xuanyuan Sword and the Stigmata attached to it, but also detained Kiana's long-lost father, Siegfried Kaslana. Could things be better? Theresa suggested throwing a party. Who agreed, and who disagreed?
"But is the Hyperion suitable for throwing parties?"
He thought the result would pass unanimously, but he received a dissenting vote from Qiong: rather than having a party, he would rather wait until he got back to St. Freya to change his clothes.
How to put it? There was a bit of shame. People coming and going on the Hyperion would occasionally look at him with a look that Sora didn't quite understand... In short, Sora inexplicably felt very insecure.
Ironically, Mei's grip on his hand attracted attention, especially from Siegfried. Siegfried gave them both a warm, aunt-like smile and a thumbs-up, which for some reason made Raiden Mei tremble with fear…
Theresa was very unhappy with what Kyō said, which was such a downer.
"Forget about all that! Qiong, this is a victory, a huge victory! Any other branch would have faced certain death in this situation, but we defeated Chi You without a scratch. We must celebrate properly!"
Seeing that Sora was so serious, Himeko decided to offer some words of advice, and Theresa followed suit.
"That's right, Himeko is right! Forget about serious matters! Let's start with a glass of my treasured bitter melon juice!"
"Why is there bitter melon juice on the spaceship?! Anyway, please allow me to refuse."
That's exactly what I meant!
Upon hearing the words "bitter melon juice," Kiana instantly deflated.
"Auntie, it's probably best not to drink bitter melon juice to celebrate your period, right?"
"How about bitter melon pancakes? Or bitter melon soup dumplings? Shall we make them when we get back?"
Kiana's face turned deathly pale instantly, and the hand gripping Siegfried trembled.
"Didn't you say you'd never do it again..."
Theresa waved her hand, and Yae Sakura immediately handed over a bottle of red wine filled with bitter melon juice.
"I've been thinking about this seriously these past few days, and it must be because my cooking was too awful!"
When Theresa mentioned the word "unpalatable," Yae Sakura behind Theresa couldn't help but nod slightly.
"But that was me a few days ago! Now your auntie has practiced bitter melon pancakes for half a day and has mastered the art. Just wait and see how bitter melon you get!"
"Alright, alright, cheer up! Let's have a simple celebration first. Forget about the serious stuff! But let's skip the bitter melon juice and stuff, shall we?"
Even the Hyperion's captain, Himeko Murata, has said so, how can Sora object?
However, apart from the clothes, he felt he had forgotten something.
What exactly happened?
……
"Let me out, you bastards of destiny! If you have the guts, let me out! Otherwise, you'll regret it!"
A small shark, half-human and bound in bandages, was being moved to a cabin in the Hyperion as usual because it hadn't received orders from the headmaster. It was roaring incessantly.
Suddenly, the door opened.
"Let me go right now! Or I'll bite your throat off!"
Walter Young responded to Anne Mar's threats with a mere smile.
"Your name is Xing, right?"
--------------
"Ah, what a long day..."
Qiong lay sprawled on her bed, utterly undignified, physically exhausted but mentally drained.
After all that trouble, we finally got Chi You and the Stigmata sorted out, and even had to be forced to drink two cups of bitter melon juice... The next development should be that Himeko successfully transplants the Stigmata, prolongs her life, and everyone is happy!
Exhausted, Qiong had no energy to care about anyone else. After a quick wash, she drifted off to sleep.
"call……"
squeak--
Eager to get some sleep, the gray-haired girl didn't lock the door, which made it easy for Bronya to enter and lock it from the inside—though locking it wouldn't have mattered, as Bronya would unlock it herself.
Looking at Qiong, who was fast asleep in bed, Bronya made up her mind.
It's 3 a.m. now. The interrogation will begin.
"Um……"
Qiong felt so heavy that he couldn't move, and a suffocating atmosphere filled the air around him. He instinctively tried to turn over, but he couldn't.
The increasingly clear mind quickly made a judgment: sleep paralysis.
Another lucid dream? Qiong tried to open his eyes, but could only see a blurry darkness—oh, only his head was covered by the blanket.
The person woke up, but the feeling of being pressed down on them was still there.
"what's the situation?"
As Qiong grew more lucid, she struggled to lift a corner of the blanket over her head and vaguely saw a duck sitting on her.
"Bronya, what are you doing?"
Qiong struggled under immense pressure, the seemingly mentally unstable Spanish duck pressing down on his lower abdomen, and Qiong seemed somewhat...
Don't get me wrong, Qiong isn't a pervert, much less a lolicon! It's just a normal boy waking up and naturally experiencing some normal physiological activity due to blood circulation to his lower body, which happens to coincide with a duck-like girl lying on top of him, that's all.
Bronya? What are you doing here?
Startled awake, Qiong pushed Bronya off the bed with all her might without hesitation.
But Reloaded Bunny was faster, pressing down the blanket just as Qiong was about to make a move.
What's going on? Was he controlled by Cocolia to kill him? Otherwise, why would Bronya, whom he knows, do such a thing?
"Bronya, Bronya Zaychek! Wake up, don't let that bad woman..."
"Brother Qiong, Bronya just drank a cup of coffee and is very awake."
Qiong was taken aback. This answer didn't seem to be from Cocolia's control.
Qiong looked at Bronya, and Bronya looked at Qiong. Qiong's corpus cavernosum was still slightly swollen, making the atmosphere increasingly awkward.
"Um, why don't you get off me first?"
Bronya shook her head.
"Qiong, Bronya needs to talk to you."
Bronya clenched her fists to show her determination.
Qiong was still confused: What couldn't be said during the day? Or did he offend Bronya recently? But that doesn't make sense, he hasn't done anything wrong, has he?
Could it be that Kiana bribed Bronya with Theresa's Houmu doll to come and annoy him? I can't think of any other possibility besides this, after all, he and Bronya have a pretty good relationship.
Bronya scrutinized the Dome, where the Heavy Bunny was still bobbing on its head.
"Bronya hopes that Brother Qiong will tell me what's next, and Bronya will keep it a secret! Please trust Bronya, Brother Qiong! But if you don't tell me, Bronya will find out the truth in her own way!"
After saying that, Bronya floated down from Qiong's body. Qiong was also freed from his predicament, but this had also dispelled much of his drowsiness. He shook his head, sat up in bed, and wondered what this little Bronya was up to.
Bronya pulled two photos out of her pocket, one of Qiong and Silver Wolf, and the other of Qiong, Bronya, and Seele.
Is this photo of you?
Qiong was so shocked that she couldn't speak.
"Where did you get this photo?! You stole my things!"
"I'm sorry, Brother Qiong, Bronya will apologize, but Bronya wants to know the truth! Please answer properly but don't yell. You don't want Sister Mei to know that Bronya came to your room, do you?"
Qiong: ...
What is he supposed to say? Maybe this cunning duck is hiding a lie detector in his pocket! Calm down, calm down! There's definitely something we can do, there must be!
Scratching his head, Qiong realized that he only had two moves left to make.
One tactic is called "silence is golden." What's his relationship with Bronya? He can't really use a powerful memory restoration technique, can he? What's there to be afraid of?
Another trick... quickly call the leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance! Where's your phone?
"Don't even think about calling outside for help, and don't respond to Bronya with silence!"
Bronya pointed to the phone on the bedside table, which made Qiong regretfully slap her thigh: From then on, she dared not let her phone out of her sight even when sleeping!
Realizing that Sora wasn't going to give a direct answer, Bronya decided to escalate her attack. With a thought, she used her Heavy Bunny to accelerate her charge, tackling the unsuspecting Sora, which further clouded Sora's already muddled mind.
"Brother Qiong, look directly at Bronya! Now I'll ask you a question, and you answer it! Is this person Bronya?"
Qiong felt that she could still be saved.
"Um...is that right?"
Bronya: ?
"Bronya, I advise you to stop. Curiosity killed the cat!"
Qiong looked quite serious, if you ignored the fact that his muscles were trembling involuntarily.
I'm sorry... Bronya apologized in her heart, but she didn't regret it.
There's no other way. For this kind of uncooperative guy, we should just take out all the photos from under his bed!
