"Who...who are you?"

Bronya was like a little white rabbit at this moment, while Zhou Xiao was like a big gray wolf; one was gentle and weak, and the other was like a pervert.

"You don't need to know who I am..."

Zhou Xiao asked Dan Heng and Natasha to leave for a while, then picked up a chair with one hand and placed it in front of the bed. His calm eyes looked Bronya up and down.

“Ms. Bronya...you wouldn't want the people at Belloberg to know that you got stabbed in the butt with a rifle butt, would you?”

“...”

"???"

Bronya was startled by the sound, her mind going blank for a moment.

If everyone in Belleburg knew about this shameful thing... how could she ever work there again?!

"Tsk, judging from your expression, you haven't lost your memory."

Zhou Xiao cracked his knuckles and then said, "So, if you don't want this to get out, you'd better cooperate with me... no, cooperate with them."

"You...you're despicable! You're shameless! You're vile! I will represent the will of the city builders and shove a gun up your nose!"

Bronya finally stopped pretending.

Enraged by Zhou Xiao's words, she even learned more vocabulary without being taught.

“...”

Upon hearing Bronya's words, Zhou Xiao frowned, then said in a serious tone, "Whether your spear pierced my nostril or not is another matter, but the fact is that your spear did indeed pierce your butt."

"You!" Bronya's face instantly turned as red as an apple.

"What do you mean, 'you'...?"

Zhou Xiao looked at the furious Bronya and then spoke calmly: "Actually, you should already have a certain understanding of this matter. Instead of doubting the truth of the matter, why don't you go and verify it yourself?"

"After all... you're like a fish on a chopping board right now, with no other choice. You could have brought them to the surface and then betrayed them, or you could have pretended to cooperate to see if things were true and gone undercover. But you chose the dumbest option: playing dumb and stalling for time..."

After Zhou Xiao said that, Bronya gradually calmed down and thought about it for a while. Just then, Clara brought Swallow to Natasha's clinic.

“Brother Zhou Xiao…” Clara walked in barefoot. Because of Swallow’s large size, the clinic door could not accommodate him, so she waited outside.

"Here you are, Clara. Where's Schwarz?" Zhou Xiao turned around and saw Clara.

"Mr. Schwarz is waiting outside... Sister Natasha didn't let him in, only Clara came in to check on things..."

"knew."

Zhou Xiao slowly got up, then looked at Bronya on the bed and said:

"The evidence proving its truth or falsehood is right outside... You can choose to go out and verify it, or you can choose to stay here and continue to evade responsibility..."

Bronya considered for a second upon hearing this, then resolutely stood up, glared at Zhou Xiao with her beautiful eyes, and walked out.

Outside the clinic.

Schwarz, Natasha, Danheng, Xingmei, and March 7 were all waiting.

Bronya emerged and, with the support of the Schwarzschild database, gradually revealed the truth of the ancient past.

This history, buried by the Great Guardians, has been brought to light in Swallow's database, allowing people today to understand the separation and catastrophe between the Star Core and this world.

...

It still has to be him...

Dan Heng crossed his arms and looked at Zhou Xiao as he came out of the clinic, a faint glint of light flashing in his cold eyes.

...

After learning about this long-buried history, Bronya's worldview is being overturned.

It turns out that... our predecessors had already discovered that the source of the cold waves was the stellar core, and they had been working to seal it, but without success...

Dear Mother...

She knows all of this...

Why did she stop these outsiders from getting close to the star core... and try to seal it away?

Bronya's mind was a complete mess.

This data further fueled her confusion regarding some of Cocolia's decisions.

for example...

The upper and lower levels are sealed off...

"I need some peace and quiet..."

At this moment, Bronya had so many questions she wanted to ask her mother, Cocolia.

"Who is Jingjing? Come here for a moment." Xingmei said casually, noticing that the atmosphere seemed a bit too heavy.

"Hey, at a time like this, you shouldn't be using puns..." March 7th's expression was slightly helpless.

In this atmosphere, playing these puns...

It's really awkward, okay?

"hey-hey..."

"It's up to you now, Clara. Let's go." Zhou Xiao called out to Clara.

"Oh? Oh, okay." Clara nodded, then followed Zhou Xiao outside with a blank expression.

Clara had already left, so Schwarzro naturally couldn't stay there either, and left with Clara.

Seeing that Zhou Xiao had called Clara away... March 7th felt that nothing seemed amiss here, and Bronya had said she needed some quiet time, so she told Danheng and Xingmei:

"I'll leave this place to you! I'll be going now."

He then followed Zhou Xiao.

Seeing that her master had left and there was nothing she was needed here, Xingmei gave Danheng a thumbs-up and ran off in the direction Zhou Xiao had gone.

The clinic, which used to be quite crowded, suddenly became rather deserted.
