Thanks for the invitation, I am in the state of collapse, brushing attribute upgrade

Gwen smiled, opened the door and walked in.

Gwen casually placed Xier's hairpin on the cabinet in front of the door and went into the room to get the hairpin.

Bronya slowly turned her wheelchair and arrived in front of Gwyn's door. She looked around casually, subconsciously collecting information about Gwyn...

Chapter 171 Gwen: I have a friend

Although it has not taken action for many years, the Ural Silver Wolf has not become a clawless puppy because of the years of life in the orphanage. Its observation ability has even been improved due to the damage to its emotional circuit.

Then, naturally, Bronya saw the hairpin that Gwen had placed on the cabinet——

"That is……"

Subconsciously, Bronya sat up straight and wanted to control the wheelchair forward to take a closer look at the hairpin that matched her memory.

However, Gwyn, who had returned, interrupted Bronya's movements——

"Come and see if it's this size battery?"

Showing a battery plate to Bronya, his body just blocking Bronya's gaze at the hairpin, Gwen asked with a smile.

"...

Yes. "

Bronya really wanted Bunny to pick up Gwyn and carefully observe the hairpin that was exactly the same as the one on Seele's head.

However, the one monitoring Gwyn now is only the sickly girl Bronya.

Therefore, Bronya could only be patient——

"Yes, thank you, big brother."

"You're welcome... My Japanese name is Genjisei, my real name is Caesar, or Bronya, whichever one comes to mind."

Gwen took the opportunity to introduce himself and formally met Bronya. He turned sideways, completely covering his hairpin, and invited her.

"Bronya, is there something urgent?

If you're not in a hurry, how about coming in and sitting down?

As neighbors, we must help each other in the future."

"..."

Hearing Gwyn's invitation, Bronya, who had originally intended to only let Gwyn know about her existence today, hesitated for a moment and finally overturned her original plan.

"Well, Bronya, excuse me for interrupting."

It might cause suspicion, but judging from the several exchanges between the two, Bronya felt that it was normal for the character she played to have a little more trust in Gwyn.

And...even if it was just an illusion, Bronya wanted to take a closer look at the hairpin.

After all... after all... after all, Gwyn had mysteriously disappeared for two hours before, so I needed to find out.

Although her emotional circuits were damaged, Bronya still made choices that were not entirely rational.

"bring it on."

Seeing that Bronya had taken the bait, Gwyn, who had already put the hairpin back into his pocket, walked into the room first, looking warm and hospitable.

Although Bronya, who was following behind, was a little disappointed when she saw that there was nothing on the cabinet, she had to pretend that nothing had happened and controlled the wheelchair into Gwyn's house.

“Want some tea?

Or would you like a drink?"

Gwen, who had brewed a pot of tea, raised the teapot in his hand and asked Bronya who slowly walked into his living room.

"Thank you, big brother. Bronya can drink anything."

Bronya's voice was flat, just like her previous behavior, but she kept looking around the living room out of the corner of her eye, trying to find the familiar hairpin.

"Well, try my tea. I brought it specially from Europe."

Gwen poured a cup of tea for himself and Bronya, then sat down on the sofa, looking quite contented.

After all, his character is that of a rebellious second-generation who can do good things but won't be too rude.

"..."

Bronya was a little disappointed that she couldn't find the familiar hairpin, so she nodded and took a sip like Gwyn.

The faint aroma of tea filled her mouth, a taste Bronya had never tasted before. However, Bronya had no intention of enjoying this mellow aroma. She just drank it like a cow chewing a peony, thinking about how to subtly lead the topic to the hairpin.

And opposite Bronya, Gwyn had the same troubles.

Although Gwyn was basically certain from Bronya's random glances that she had noticed the bait he had released, he first needed to make sure that his communication with Bronya would not be overheard by that crazy woman Cocolia.

If this situation occurs, Gwyn will not be afraid of Bronya being controlled, but Mei Raiden, who is also under surveillance on the other side, will be in great danger.

Therefore, even if he wanted to talk about it, Bronya would have to take the initiative to start the topic, and he would be the ignorant party introduced into the topic.

Just like that, the two people, with their own concerns but the same purpose, exchanged greetings and showed each other their personalities.

In the end, it was Bronya who brought up the topic by using her own disability.

"Although we've been apart for many years, Bronya still misses those days. The hairpin on her head looked like a pure little white flower in the sunlight..."

As she spoke, Bronya's emotionless little face even showed a hint of nostalgia.

"White hairpin..."

Gwen was stunned when he heard this, and his hand "subconsciously" reached into his pocket, attracting Bronya's attention.

"...

Bronya, I have a somewhat presumptuous question—

What is your full name?

Is her name Bronya Zajček?"

With one hand in his pocket, Gwen frowned and asked hesitantly.

"Yes."

Bronya nodded. Although her face remained calm, tiny veins bulged faintly on her unconsciously clasped hands.

"..."

After getting Bronya's answer, Gwyn frowned even more tightly, with a thoughtful look on his face, which made Bronya feel anxious.

After a moment, under Bronya's gaze, Gwen sighed softly, took the hairpin out of his pocket, and said slowly,

“I have a friend who has a sister named Bronya Zajček who she’s very close to.

However, unlike Bronya, you still have relatives. Her sister Bronya is an orphan like her and lives in an orphanage called Cocolia Orphanage.

However, the director there was not a good person. He actually used the children in the orphanage for experiments.

And my friend also had an accident during the experiment and never saw her sister Bronya again..."

"..."

Hearing Gwen's words, Bronya's pupils trembled, and she said almost without thinking,

"Is your friend called Xier?"

After saying that, Bronya's mind told her that she shouldn't do this——

This question almost made all of Bronya's previous efforts in vain.

However, Bronya's extremely thin emotions directly ignored the warning of reason. Her gray eyes stared at Gwyn without blinking, hoping to get a positive answer.

"Yes……"

Gwen looked at Bronya with a look of surprise and a hint of "as expected", and sighed.

"It's a pity... the same person has a different fate..."

Chapter 172: Parallel Universe? Confrontation and Questioning (Third update, please vote)

"..."

Blinking, Bronya, confused by Gwyn's words, did not act rashly—

Just let the hidden heavy-armored rabbit be prepared to deal with emergencies, and at the same time start scanning Gwyn.

Even though the few remaining emotions were affecting Bronya's judgment, she would not be so foolish as to think that Gwyn's identity was just an ordinary second-generation on the surface.

Under Bronya's gaze, Gwen sighed again and gently raised the hairpin in his hand -

"Bronya, have you heard of... the parallel universe theory?"

"Parallel universe?"

Bronya, who had never expected Gwen to ask such a question, blinked and then gave an answer.

"According to Einstein's general theory of relativity, outside the universe we live in, there are other universes that are parallel to ours.

There are striking similarities between these universes.

For example..."

Bronya was slightly startled when she spoke, and then she realized what Gwen wanted to express -

"You mean...we and your friend are in different parallel universes?"

Although it seems possible, Bronya is very clear that what she said before about her life story was all made up, and Seele's sister Bronya in the Cocolia Orphanage is herself!

"That's right,"

Gwen nodded and said seriously,

"From what we can see now, your and Xi'er's situation is very consistent with the parallel universe theory.

Here you are still being raised by your family, and you didn’t end up in that cannibalistic orphanage…”

Gwyn first plans to use the convenience brought by Seele to get closer to Bronya, find an opportunity to be sure that he will not be monitored by Cocolia, and then carefully compare the information with Bronya to confirm whether the Seele he met is the Seele of this world.

However, Gwen was ready to wait for the right time, but Bronya was unwilling to wait——

"No, I am Seele's sister Bronya."

Her heartbeat was already accelerating unconsciously, but Bronya, whose emotional circuits were damaged, could only maintain a calm expression and said solemnly,

"Living in an orphanage with Lilia, Rosalia, and everyone else."

"..."

Instantly, Gwen's plan was shattered, and he frowned. He asked hesitantly and with a bit of indignation,

"You mean...

Were you deceiving me with what you said before?

The so-called disability caused by the accident was also because of Cocolia..."

Sensing the indignation and hesitation in Gwen's words, Bronya calmed down a bit:

"Bronya is very sorry for her previous deception, but this was all done to save Seele.

Now that Mama Kokolia can't hear what we say, you can say whatever you want."

If it weren't for saving Seele, Bronya, who had already parted ways with Cocolia, would not have thought of defending her adoptive mother and would have thrown her out to be a target for Gwyn.

"Cocolia...

snort! "

After hearing what Bronya said, although Gwen didn't completely believe it, he relaxed a little. He leaned back on the sofa and asked without saying much about Cocolia.

"Let's not talk about that bastard anymore. Let's talk about you. How do you prove that you are the Bronya sister of Seele that I know?"

Gwen, leaning back on the sofa, asked unhappily, taking back the hairpin he had just shown to Bronya while she was looking at him reluctantly.

"The Heavy Bunny can prove it."

Noticing the change in Gwyn's attitude, Bronya calmly summoned the Heavy Armor Bunny.
