Miss Riddler just wants to level up in peace.

..

At night, Ziyao brought the dinner that had been heated in the microwave to the girl's door again.

He knocked on the door with his hand behind his back, but there was no one inside, and the door was locked from the inside.

"Please look at the next part."

I was almost startled when someone poked my waist.

"Bronya went to Anti-Entropy headquarters. I'm sorry for being so late and making everyone worry."

As if knowing Ziyao's purpose for coming, she said this, thus silencing the former.

"My sister has many things she wants to understand. Could you please ask Bronya to come to my sister's room? It might take a little while."

Using the pretext of studying, Ziyao wanted to spend some time alone with Bronya to find out what was on her mind.

She suspected that something must have happened on the reverse entropy side, which was why the girl was so concerned.

The sudden departure of the two PhDs yesterday is probably not a coincidence.

“I’m sorry, Bronya has other things to do.”

After receiving the dinner, the girl quickly closed the door.

“…”

"Should we just break in?"

Kiana emerged from the shadows, a crowbar in her hand.

"No need, and you are the Herrscher of the Void, you just need to make an opening in the door."

"Oh right, I forgot," the girl said, scratching her head.

"what is it now?"

"I'll find a way to get Theresa to buy more wine."

Ziyao had a good idea, so she instructed Kiana.

"Is it a drug?"

"Ouch, that hurts!"

"What are you thinking? It's not that bad."

"Instead of asking, let her tell you herself—"

..

Silent all night.

The next morning, everyone got up early to prepare for the banquet.

"Is Wendy not coming?"

"I'm sorry, Headmaster, the year-end assessment is too difficult. I want to join the Destiny Vanguard Squad as soon as possible."

"Where's Himeko?"

"You really should come back and take a look at all this work that's piled up like a mountain."

"Never mind, it's a good thing you're not here. This cabinet is pretty nice; I've put the wine in there, okay?"

Beep beep—

After confirming by phone, it seems there are only five of them today.

"Sister Xilin is so amazing, she can buy fruit so easily."

"Ha, not worth mentioning."

Seele carried a basket of fruit, which had traversed from the tropics to the temperate zone, and contained all kinds of fruits.

"Thank you."

Upon being thanked by the innocent Seele, Sirin immediately switched her body to Kiana without hesitation.

"The walls, bamboo pavilion, and inner shrine are finished. There are no LED strip lights left."

Bronya directed the heavy-duty bunny to move the ladder, and with lanterns and decorations, it looked like the Spring Festival in China.

"Everyone has worked hard."

Mei tied on her apron and began preparing for the evening banquet.

First comes lunchtime dessert, then the initial processing of various ingredients...

Ziyao helped out in the kitchen, while the strong Theresa did the heavy lifting, moving all sorts of heavy things, like tables and chairs.

"Boom——"

The glass bottle made a crisp, muffled sound when it was placed on the ground.

"As you requested, everything is here."

Theresa carried the wine box with one hand without even breaking a sweat.

Upon opening the lid, Ziyao paused for a moment, then saw what was inside.

"Soft drinks?"

"The soft drinks are outside, here's the alcohol you ordered."

Bottles and jars of all colors and types are available.

"I might not be able to handle it."

It mainly contains fruit wines and sparkling wines, with exquisite and simple packaging, clearly designed to cater to young people.

"I remember you have a good alcohol tolerance. Today is a day to celebrate, so we'll make an exception and allow everyone to drink."

Theresa put her hands on her hips and said with a gentle gaze.

Volume 1: Chapter 233 It's All My Sister's Fault (Part 1)

"Sister, please help Bronya move this."

"And over here, the circuitry needs to be rearranged, please be very careful."

"..."

Time flies, and before we knew it, the sun was high overhead, bringing with it a stifling heat.

All morning, I couldn't find a chance to strike up a conversation.

The idiot Theresa didn't notice anything different about Bronya; she seemed the same as before.

The problem lies here: the most fatal change is that nothing changes.

As the person closest to her, Seele could feel this most clearly.

She hesitated, unsure how to help Bronya.

Tell Sister Ziyao the real reason?

If she ends up making things worse again, she won't be able to forgive herself.

"If your sister Bronya gives you a gift, please think it over carefully before you act."

After hesitating for a long time, Seele finally managed to say only this sentence.

"It's only February, but the air is already so stuffy."

Kiana wore her treasured dress today and got up a little later than the others because she needed to repeatedly fix her makeup.

Even the oblivious Theresa could tell that the girl had put a lot of thought into her outfit today.

Soft white hair cascaded down, with silver strands tugging at her forehead, repeatedly intertwining and tangling, forming a beautiful princess braid like a flower crown.

Paired with a cool, ruffled dress, she looks like a snow princess straight out of a painting, captivating all who look at her.

Of course... that's only if the princess stands quietly without saying a word.

"So hot."

The girl gripped the fabric of her chest and pulled it repeatedly, letting fresh air in to carry away the heat.

She was completely unaware that the image she had painstakingly built up had instantly crumbled.

"The drinks are in the freezer."

Ziyao held a can of cola in her hand, and the cold drink finally relieved the heat in her body.

"But I also want to drink Coke."

"This is the last one, please make do with something else."

Kiana's gaze lingered on Ziyao's hand.

"...You are only allowed to drink one sip."

Helpless, Ziyao handed over her own Coke.

Kiana happily took the cup, secretly rotated the rim, and drank half of it with lingering relish.

"Stop, you can't drink anymore."

"Hey, I only had a little bit to drink."

Kiana tugged at Ziyao's sleeve; this was the first time she had ever tasted such delicious sparkling water.

Two people sharing one cup, isn't that...?

"One last thing, Mei will share half of her dessert with you later."

“So generous?”

Ziyao was shocked. Based on her understanding of Kiana, it was unlikely that she would give up the dessert.

A gentleman's word is as good as his bond.

She patted her voluptuous chest, the up-and-down shaking of which was truly eye-catching.

"no problem."

Ziyao nodded, handed over the cola, but the next second she turned around and drank it all in one gulp.
