"Then I'll call you Xiao Kong. Hello Xiao Kong, I'm Sunday. What are you doing here?"
Compared to the pink-haired monster sister March 7 who tries to lure the little girl with snacks, the kind-faced Sunday is more likely to lower the little girl named Sora's guard.
Although still somewhat wary, Sora was now willing to answer questions.
"Hello... Mr. Sunday? I'm waiting for my teacher to come back."
Kong's timid answer made everyone realize one thing: this child was not alone.
Indeed, in this place that resembles a post-apocalyptic urban ruin, how could such a small child survive on his own?
"When will your teacher be back?"
"I don't know, sometimes it's quick, sometimes it takes a long time..."
Kong hugged the round, blue robot tightly in her arms.
"This robot..."
Dan Heng looked at the robot; he had never seen that model before, so it was clear that this robot was not a product of the Interstellar Peace Company.
Upon hearing this, Kong's eyes lit up.
"This was a gift from my teacher. It's called Mark Rabbit! My memory isn't very good; without Mark Rabbit—Teacher!"
The three of them saw the empty space and their faces lit up with surprise.
"Teacher, you're finally back!"
Everyone turned to look to the side and saw a figure dressed in black and red with a cloak walking quickly towards them.
The woman had short gray hair and rose-red eyes, most notably her pupils, which were shaped like snake eyes.
"I thought the teacher Xiaokong was talking about was a strong, muscular man..."
The gray-haired woman was holding some daily necessities. When she saw March 7 and the others, she was slightly taken aback, and then shouted into the air.
"Kong, come here!"
"Madam, we mean no harm."
However, Raven did not respond to the three people's explanations; she quickly shielded Sora behind her.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Dan Heng could hear the wariness in her voice. After all, it was reasonable to be wary when meeting someone in a place like this.
"We really meant no harm, we were just passing by and chatted with Xiao Kong for a bit!"
The raven looked incredulous.
Three living, breathing people appeared in Changkong City, where the Honkai energy concentration was dangerously high—two of them were men! Just passing by? What kind of people could possibly pass by this godforsaken place? Besides, their clothing and appearance didn't suggest they were in the wilderness for survival, and Gray Serpent hadn't said they'd be sending anyone over anytime soon…
They couldn't possibly be tourists, could they?
Raven judged that they were most likely destined for greatness or were people who defied entropy.
But the other party, whether it was Destiny or Anti-Entropy Raven, didn't care at all. She only thought that the nest might have exposed this fact, and it was unlikely that the children could be transferred, and their illness had not been cured yet. Should she kill these three people?
Dan Heng frowned slightly. He could sense that Raven was somewhat malicious, but it didn't act up because Xiao Kong was here.
"Madam, we have no intention of starting a conflict."
Even so, Dan Heng also drew his Ji Yun—if the other party really launched an unreasonable attack, he wouldn't mind drawing his gun.
"Teacher, they shouldn't be bad people..."
Raven glanced at Sora, then hesitated. Acting rashly might have negative consequences for Sora.
"Leave here immediately. No matter who you are, you are not welcome here."
The other side probably hasn't discovered the "nest" yet, so driving them away should be an option.
"No, it's rare to see someone! Can I ask you a few questions first?"
March 7th was getting anxious. The woman in front of them was their only source of information at the moment, and Silver Wolf refused to say anything...
Speaking of which, doesn't this woman's voice sound a bit like Bronya's?
"We will not answer any questions about us."
Do you recognize these two men?
March 7th pulled out a group photo of the five people from his pocket, pointed at Walter and Sora, and asked Raven about it.
"do not know."
With a casual glance, Raven, as an excellent mercenary, was able to control her expression very well.
Sure enough, these people were destined for greatness.
"Leave now, outsiders are not welcome here. Don't follow us, or else..."
After saying that, Raven took Little Sky and disappeared from everyone's sight.
"She lied."
The human lie detector gave its verdict on Sunday. Although Raven concealed his true intentions well, his response was too decisive: an impatient person wouldn't even look at it, and a normal person would think for a few seconds, "Do I know him?" before making a judgment, but Raven didn't.
Especially the last part, that "don't follow" was too suspicious.
"Danheng?"
On March 7th, he looked to his pillar of support, now it was up to Danheng to make the decision.
"Follow them."
Although the raven warned them not to follow, this was their only clue so far, and they had no other choice.

Raiden Ryoma, who was placed in a hospital bed, underwent a check-up by Baiji.
"Teacher Bai, how is my father?"
"It's nothing serious. The patient is just experiencing a disruption in their sleep schedule and a sudden surge of anger. They'll recover with a little rest."
"It's good that you're alright..."
"Is this Mei's father?"
Bai Ji observed Raiden Ryoma on the hospital bed, never expecting that the first time he would see Mei's parents would be on a hospital bed.
"Mea Yi..."
After a while, the Thunder Dragon Horse slowly woke up.
Seeing Mei standing on one side of the hospital bed, a surge of rage welled up within him.
Of course, it was definitely aimed at Qiong, not his own precious daughter.
"Ryoma, this is a misunderstanding!"
Seeing that Raiden Ryoma was about to lose his temper again, Walter, fearing that he would have a stroke, immediately spoke up.
"Mei and Sora didn't go that far! They only kissed!"
"Forehead……"
For some reason, Bai Ji felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
Although he gave up custody of Qiong, he felt it was still necessary for him to know about meeting the parents.
Where is Qiongren?
Where is the sky?
The atmosphere suddenly turned cold.
Walter broke the silence with a light cough.
"Sora... Teacher Himeko called him for something, and with Ryoma here, he might be... Let's not talk about these things today. It's not easy for everyone to get together, so let's relax a bit."

For Anna Shaniat, transferring to the Far East branch was perhaps one of her most impulsive decisions.
But she did it anyway, not for any other reason than to fulfill the promise that the other party had taken as a joke!
As soon as she got off the plane, Himeko and Sora walked towards her with smiles on their faces—yes, she had already told Major Himeko the reason why she applied to come to the Far East Branch. It seems that Major Himeko had made arrangements.
"Welcome to the Far East Branch, Lieutenant Anna!"
"It was an honor to fight against the Honkai under your command, Major Himeko!"
After exchanging pleasantries, Anna extended her hand to Qiong.
"Qiong, hello! Let's begin..."
"Anna, did you bring the baseball bat?"
"what?"
Anna's smile froze. She had considered many possibilities, such as Qiong welcoming her, criticizing her, or even advising her to leave.
But you come up here asking what a baseball bat is? Am I, a grown woman, less valuable than your broken stick?!
