Mystery: Lucky One

"...Ah?" Nina didn't seem to react.

"I want to be a boy in my next life..." Alice began to count on her fingers, "I want to grow two meters tall, and..."

She hesitated and glanced at Nina's chest, then turned to ask Klein:
"Wouldn't it be weird for a man to have such big breasts?"

Cattleya looked at Gehrman Sparrow in silence.

Nina and the other sailors looked at German Sparrow with blank expressions.

Frank Lee looked at Nina, then at Alice, and finally, along with the others, he looked at German Sparrow.

In the center of everyone's sight, Gehrman Sparrow calmly pointed at Alice, gave the others a warm smile, and said to Nina apologetically:

“I’m so sorry, ma’am.

"I haven't had the chance to introduce it to you yet. This is one of my sealed items."

Nina finally found the source of what was wrong in this sentence. Combining Alice's previous behavior and the groundless rumors, she finally came to an obvious conclusion - Alice was not human!
But... a sealed object?

Nina looked at Alice and found that this girl, who looked so real, did not refute this statement. Instead, she asked thoughtfully:

"So, when a man grows this big..."

"Yes." Gehrman Sparrow interrupted her question without hesitation.

Alice sighed in disappointment and turned her attention back to Nina:

"It seems unrealistic that I look like this... then..."

Her curious eyes fell on Nina's breasts, and Nina realized that she was different from the pirates who wanted to sleep with her. She was just instinctively curious about new things.

She probably really just wanted to touch it, since she had never done it before.

And during this conversation, Frank Lee seemed to gradually figure out the truth - Cattleya was not sure about this, she just noticed that Frank Lee's eyes were looking at Alice with more enthusiasm than before.

If I had to describe it, it would probably be... even more fanatical than the way German Sparrow looked at Jin Pound.

Alice would certainly notice such fanatical gazes, but she still kept her eyes on Nina. After all, she and Nina were not very familiar with each other. If she missed this opportunity, she would not be able to make such a request next time.

Oh, yes, Alice judged from the other people's reactions that her question was not appropriate for two people meeting for the first time, even though they were both women.

But since I've asked, let's achieve our goal first...

Alice just stared at Nina like that until she answered uncertainly, isolated and helpless:
"OK?"

Her eyes lit up, but before she could react further, a gaze suddenly appeared.

Alice frowned, looked back at the cabin, and then turned to Nina.

Bernadette is watching me. If I touch her now, my image… uh, do I really still have an image?
Alice glanced at Cattleya hesitantly, then turned back to Nina. The bright light in her eyes had disappeared. After the enthusiasm of that moment faded, Alice began to feel that there was no point in doing this.

——If all else fails, I'll be reincarnated as Nina's child. Not only can I touch her, but I can also suck her... Why does this sound so perverted?
Alice stopped where she was and blinked twice. After looking around, she said to Nina:

"No, thanks, thanks."

After saying this, she turned and walked away, as if Amon was chasing her. Cattleya looked at Alice's back and thought for two seconds, then she showed her professionalism in participating in the Tarot Club and said to Nina as if nothing had happened:

“Exaggeration is a common trait among pirates and adventurers.

"Tell me about the specific situation."

Alice paused, then she stepped back along the path she had taken when she left. If the deck was covered with snow or soft soil, people would find that her footprints were exactly the same as when she left.

Alice thus completed a manual restart, sending herself back to where she was, and pretending that nothing had happened.

In response, Klein and Cattleya chose to cooperate with her performance.

Frank Lee was still in that excitement. As for the other sailors... Haha, is there any place for them to talk here?
Nina didn't understand all of this, but as a pirate who had come from the bottom of society, she still made the most appropriate choice with her experience. She began to answer questions as if Alice didn't exist:
“That well was at a relatively deep bottom of the sea, and I had to have enough buffer time to adjust to the pressure and temperature there, so it took a long time to get there.

“It’s not easy to spot in itself, but the remaining steel buildings are really obvious, and I found them once I got used to the environment there.

"They have completely collapsed and decayed. It is impossible to imagine what they looked like originally. However, it can be seen that they must have been quite large in the past, but now they have shrunk a lot."

At this point, Nina chuckled twice as she usually did, and glanced at the men around her.

...?
Alice felt that Nina must have some other meaning in what she said, but she couldn't understand it, so she looked around and looked at a certain experienced adventurer.

"What does this mean?" Alice asked in confusion.

Klein turned his head and looked at Alice. After confirming that she really didn't understand and wasn't making fun of him, he thought for a moment and asked:
"Have you ever seen a shrunk sponge?"

"Yes." Alice nodded as a matter of course.

…It seems like she really didn’t understand at all.

Klein looked at Cattleya. Cattleya looked at him with sympathy in her eyes, but she immediately looked away after making eye contact with him. It seemed that she had no sense of alliance at all.

This shows how loose the Tarot Club is.

As the founder, Mr. Fool had mixed feelings about this, but now was not the time to think about this. As Mr. Fool's beloved "world", he was also responsible for educating Miss Destiny.

So, Klein said to Alice sincerely:
"Be obedient, kid, don't ask these questions."

“……?” Alice looked at Klein as if he were an idiot.

…Actually, I should be older than him, right?

Seeing that this approach would not work to appease Alice, Klein thought about it and changed his approach.

He made his expression solemn and his voice low, and then spoke in the tone of Alice when she suddenly fell ill:

"Fate tells me that now is not the time for you to know all this.

“When the wheel of fate turns to the right position, you will naturally clear the fog and see the dawn of hope.

"Please be patient and wait."

...?
What... is he doing?
Alice's eyes gradually became dazed. (End of this chapter)
