"Hey!"
(ー`′ー)
"Big sis, who are you? Don't tell me you're here to sell flowers too?"
(??????)????
Annie was a little confused. Getting surrounded by a bunch of brats over by the bridge had been one thing, but why was she being blocked by this big-bottomed big sister just as she was about to enter the hotel?
It was strange. It wasn't as if she'd recently gone out of her way to pick a fight with anyone...
"Hello!"
"My name is Baccarat!"
"You must be the legendary brat, Captain Annie Hastur, who's beaten the Navy's three Admirals several times over, right?"
The red-haired woman in the black dress paid no mind to Annie's teasing. She simply crouched down with a smile and extended her right hand, which was covered by a black silk glove.

Annie looked at the woman's insincere smile for a moment, then gave her a once-over, taking in her figure and those long, pale legs. After that, she turned her face away haughtily, not even considering touching the woman's hand.

Seeing that, the woman who called herself Baccarat was taken aback. The smile on her face gradually stiffened, and she had no idea what she'd done wrong.
"That's not right!"

"You've got the wrong person!"

Unlike the woman, whose smile was growing more and more strained, Annie simply furrowed her little brows and glared at her several times in indignation.
"Huh?"
"I've got the wrong person?"

The red-haired woman, Baccarat, opened her mouth, suddenly feeling awkward and uncertain.
Then she bit her lip and furrowed her brows, studying Annie's round, slightly chubby-cheeked face up close once more. She looked at the ferocious-looking stuffed bear clutched in the girl's hands, then at her little red hooded dress.
