Human, am I evil?

Su didn't believe that Aponia hadn't noticed Di Ruiji yet. As a perception-type fusion fighter stronger than herself, and also the manager of Paradise of the Past, she usually [sees] much more than ordinary people.

Everyone knew the importance of Di Ruiji in Alponia's mind, and it was precisely for this reason that Su was puzzled.

"I'm sorry, Di Ruiji. I really want to help you, but I can't give you substantial help in this matter. If you really want to go there, I recommend you to go to Padu. With her ability, she can help you You go to the vicinity of the deepest place."

"Pado... well, I see. Do you know where she is now, Sue."

"This requires you to look for it. She is usually very active. She may be sleeping somewhere or buying goods somewhere."

Let’s not talk about sleep, what does it mean to buy goods?Where is the Paradise of the Dead... Ah, I almost forgot the job of that guy Padu.

Her purchases are not the normal ones, but random purchases. Unless it is a scary person, anyone's things may be seen by her [by convenience] and then sold to others.

It seems that after so many years of her bad habit, she didn't deserve it. The store I met earlier was opened by her. I really don't know what is the point of her opening a store here. Is this to earn money from those testers?But the only thing that can be called currency here is the silver coins dropped from those monsters.

Hmm~ Did you add this function when you set up the program?How do you feel that this silver coin is specially designed for Patuo.

Is there anything worth buying in the items sold by Patuo?Hmm~ I have a lot to complain about, so I'll ask you when I see Patuo.

When Di Ruiji was about to leave, she suddenly thought of something and asked, "By the way, Su. How long has it been since you synchronized your memories with your outside self? Do you know why Wei Wei and Aponia put Mebiu Is Si sealed into the Quantum Sea?"

This unexpected question made Su Weiwei open his eyes. He didn't expect Di Ruiji to know about this matter. Did someone outside tell her?

Sue does know what the truth is, but...

"Sorry, Di Ruiji. I do know the reason, but I can't tell you. You need to find the answer yourself."

Sorry, I can help with other things, but this is the only thing I don't want to get involved under any circumstances.

The battle between women is really terrifying. Su doesn't want to get involved in the battle between the three of them. It is an area that even the strongest fighter Kevin can't avoid. He can already think of what he will suffer if he speaks too much. Terrified to kill.

It's better to leave their affairs to Di Ruiji, an outsider, who just sits and watches the show. He believes that Kevin is also happy to ask to watch.

I don't want to talk about it, it seems that there are many secrets that need to be explored. It is estimated that the reason can only be found out by seeing them outside.

"Then I'll go first. Let's meet in the lobby of Paradise later, Su."

"Well, we'll meet again soon, Di Ruiji."

Watching off... Speaking of Su's situation, can it be said to be watching off?In short, when Di Ruiji left this area, Su slowly put away the smile on his face and frowned.

"No, since Di Ruiji is back, there is no need to worry about Kevin's situation. Maybe even the sleeping MEI will wake up. At that time, Di Ruiji doesn't need to stop him, and MEI can control him."

The last memory synchronization, Su noticed that Kevin outside seemed to be planning to implement MEI's [Stigmata Project].

He doesn't want the [Stigmata Project] to be implemented, but he can't convince Kevin, and he can't beat Kevin, so he can only find a way to delay the implementation of the plan.

Now that Di Ruiji is back, at least someone can subdue her by force. If she can revive MEI, then there is no need to worry about Kevin messing around.

"Oh, it's time to buy, it's time to buy, where should I find new sources of goods?"

In the hall of Past Paradise, the cat who didn't know to run there to bask in the sun appeared here with a big smile on his face.

Just thinking about how to get rich, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed something sparkling.

[It's a treasure chest! 】

Mao Mao's eyes lit up. Although he didn't know why there was such a big treasure box in the Paradise Hall, there must be valuable things in it.

Hehe~ Could it be that sister Eden was in a good mood and specially prepared a surprise for her.

Oops~ That's too embarrassing, in order to live up to Sister Eden's kindness, she will accept it gratefully.

Maomao opened the treasure box with a smile, and as the treasure box was opened, the items inside were presented in front of her.

It's just that there is no treasure inside, only a familiar girl is sitting there, looking up at her.

"Long time no see, Padu."

"Di...Miss Di!"

Maomao was shocked (ΩДΩ).

Honkai 2: 053: Kevin's Trust

"Sister Di! Is it really you? Sister Di. I thought... I thought..."

"Think I'm dead? Already died in the battle with the Herrscher? It seems that you are not confident in me, Patuo."

Di Ruiji pulled Paduo to the bar counter, found milk under the counter and poured a glass of milk for Paduo, ready to chat with her slowly.

"No, no, I believe in Sister Di! I have always believed in Sister Di! It's just that the Herrscher is too powerful."

The strength of the Herrscher of the Last Yan made people despair, even if she wanted to believe in Di Ruiji, she didn't have much confidence.

"Yeah, the Herrscher of the Last Yan is indeed very strong. Even if all the Herrschers in front of her are combined, I'm afraid she is not as strong as her."

Di Ruiji picked up the milk and put it in front of Patuo, facing Patuo's eyes, said: "But you are such a hopeless opponent, you still participated in the final battle, didn't you?"

She has been relying on luck and evasion to avoid the battles against the Herrscher again and again. Obviously, she still could not participate in the battle against the Herrscher in the end, but she still went.

Obviously knowing that he will die, obviously afraid of the pain, obviously Pa Duo, who will immediately kneel down and beg for mercy when he sees a threat, still chooses to join the battle in the end.

She touched Pa Duo's head, and said with a smile: "You are worthy of the name of Yingjie, Pa Duo. I didn't have time to tell you this because of the emergency. Now I want to tell you, good job."

"Di...Miss Di, you're exaggerating a little too much."

Pa Duo touched her head in embarrassment, she is worthy of the name of Yingjie, is she really worthy of such a high evaluation as the weakest fusion fighter?

"[Ying Jie]'s name is not determined by listening to the strength. There were so many fusion fighters back then. Why did Alicia only choose a few of you when she chose?"

"Hmm... because we have a better relationship with Ellie-san?"

Why does this silly girl like to say such things? Shouldn't ordinary people accept this compliment?Why did she keep denying it?

"Meow~"

At this time, a cute meow came to mind, and a little meow rushed towards Di Ruiji at an extremely fast speed.

Di Ruiji firmly caught the fat cat that landed in her arms, and couldn't help but stroked its head. It stretched out its head cooperatively and let out a comfortable cry.

"Ah! What are you doing? Canned food. Don't trouble Miss Di, come down quickly."

"Meow~o( =∩ω∩= )m~"

Canned ignored Patuo's order, and lay comfortably in Di Ruiji's arms, enjoying her smooth service.

Hehe~ Stupid shit shoveler, I am the first cat star to enjoy this kind of treatment, do you feel envious?

Looking at the canned food that ignored him, Pa Duo gritted his teeth and stared at it. This guy actually forgot her as the master when he had someone else!This bad cat!

"Is this your cat? How did it enter the Paradise of the Dead? I remember that there should be no small animals around you."

"This... I can't explain it clearly. It seems that the canned food appeared accidentally when I accepted the backup of my consciousness to the Paradise of the Past."

She couldn't tell the specific reason. Mebius was still curious and wanted to experiment with canned food.

But Patuo refused to agree to anything. Although Mebius was sorry, he did not force the kitten to be protected from the snake.

"Accidentally appeared... Maybe the system of Paradise judges that you are one with it. When the system synchronizes your consciousness, it separates you."

"Eh? I'm one with the can? Why? Could it be that the Honkaimon DNA I fused with is a cat? But I shouldn't be the only one who has pets, other people also have them."

"It has nothing to do with the DNA of the Houkai Beast. This is actually just my guess without any basis."

Di Ruiji took out a can of cat food and opened it for it to eat. When he saw the can of cat food, he couldn't stay any longer. He rushed over almost the moment Di Ruiji opened it, snatched the can, and ran to the corner to eat up.

This gluttonous appearance made Patuo put his hands on his hips angrily, and kept chanting words such as "fat cat" and "I'm not afraid of being fat to death".

Faced with this soft threat, Can Can just returned a cute [meow] sound, and then ignored it.

Pa Duo was discouraged, he really lost all dignity as the master, if this continues, it will be Pa Duo's turn to be the master.

"Forget it, forget about the canned food. Sister Di, the reason you put that treasure box in the hall is to lure me out, right? Do you have anything to ask me?"

"Well, Su said that you know the way to the deepest place, and I want you to take me there."

"Take you to the deepest place? Oh~ I understand, you are going to find sister Aponia."

Oops~ I was going to look for Sister Aponia when I first came here. The relationship between Sister Di and her is really good, which is a little enviable.

No, this kind of thing is completely unenviable, it is very dangerous, the kind that will destroy yourself if you are not careful.

She still remembered the last time she participated in the women's meeting organized by Alicia, when Aponia, Wei Wei, and even Mebius had already participated.

What frightened Pa Duo was that the three of them got along very well at the tea party, as if they were close sisters, but her sense of crisis kept reminding her to stay away from the three of them, and never get close, or they would die, and they would definitely die. die.

I really don't know how Sister Di dealt with the three of them, and she was able to tame them so that they would not have conflicts. How did she do it?

Patuo didn't know that Wei Wei and Aponia outside had teamed up to seal Mebius in the Sea of ​​Quantum. The relationship between these three people was not as close as it appeared on the outside.

"No problem, but I don't dare to go in there casually. So... I can only take you nearby, you shouldn't mind."

"Well, it can be delivered nearby."

"That's good. Tell me when you are going to see Miss Aponia. I will stay in the lobby during this time."

Anyway, there are no other testers, and not many people are interested in her engraving, so the small shop will store it first, and stay here to see if there is any hope of buying it.

Patuo hopped and walked towards the living area, and Di Ruiji saw that she was going to [visit] everyone's room to see if there was a possibility of [purchasing].

I don't know if this person has ever been to Mebius' room. If she really had the courage to go there and was discovered by Mebius, would she become a new experimental subject?

"Huh? Is there any wine you want? Although I'm not very professional, I will try my best to make a glass for you, Kevin."

The handsome guy who suddenly appeared in front of him is our Kevin. He sat in front of Di Ruiji like a guest, but what he asked for was not what the guest would order. It made people wonder if he was here to find fault.

"Just help me cook a bowl of noodles, I can trust your craftsmanship."

"...If I don't know your character, I must think that you are looking for trouble. Just wait a moment, I will be back soon."

There is still a kitchen in the Paradise of the Past, and there is no shortage of ingredients. Di Ruiji quickly brought a bowl of standard noodles, and Kevin skillfully picked up the chopsticks and picked it up.

This guy has been in Paradise of the Past for so many years, isn't he tired of eating noodles?

"Don't have anything to ask, Kevin. I thought you were going to ask me a bunch of questions."

Kevin stopped Suo Mian, shook his head calmly, and said, "If it was someone else, I would definitely ask, but since this person is you, there is no need to ask."

"As long as I'm sure you're our companion, I don't think you've changed, Di Ruiji."

"Of course, whether in the past or now, I have never changed."

"That's fine, I trust you."

The establishment of this trust is not without reason, but from what Di Ruiji has done to save the world bit by bit.

Even MEI, who broke up with Di Ruiji back then, would definitely not doubt her. Kevin believed in his own judgment.

"This time I came to World Snake, and I originally planned to find you to ask about MEI. In the past so many years, MEI's damage has almost repaired, and it's time to wake up."

It's a pity that Gray Snake said that Kevin has lost contact for thousands of years, and he may be staying in the Quantum Sea like Mebius.

Except for Kevin, she doesn't know where MEI is put to sleep, even if she wants MEI to wake up, she can't do anything.

"I know."

Kevin asked for noodles and said, "The only people who know this address are me and Su. If you need the address, I can tell you."

oh?Why are you so worried about her?Don't you worry that she knows the address and runs to do strange things to MEI?

She broke up with MEI back then, maybe she is still holding grudges now, planning to do something to her when MEI is defenseless.

"Is this okay? Tell me such important information directly. It's better to let Kevin outside take me there. It's safer that way."

Kevin shook his head. If it was someone else, he would definitely be worried, but if this person is Di Ruiji, then there is no problem at all.

Why so sure?If Di Ruiji really wanted to be unfavorable to MEI, when she overused the blank key and caused her body to collapse, she would not have appeared to heal MEI.

Di Ruiji may have brought MEI back to life. If it wasn't for Di Ruiji, MEI might have died 5 years ago, so I wouldn't have the chance to meet her again.

Rather, letting Di Ruiji save MEI is the safest choice, and letting MEI stay with Di Ruiji is the most correct decision.

There is no place in this world that is safer than staying by Di Ruiji's side. If there is anyone who can threaten Di Ruiji, it may only be the Herrscher of the End or the Houkai God.

Don't look at Kevin who only knows how to fight, but he is actually very smart...or he only becomes smart when it comes to things related to MEI, and he basically doesn't know what to ask at other times.

Feeling Kevin's trust, Di Ruiji was silent for a moment, then sighed: "I see, give me the address. I will call MEI to get up."

"please."

Kevin told Di Ruiji the exact coordinates, and also told Di Ruiji the mark he and Su had left nearby.
