Kiana: A true expert only needs three shots.
Bronya was here not only because Cocolia hadn't given her any tasks yet, but also because she wanted to distract herself.
The more tasks Bronya assigned to Cocolia, the more confused she became. Was what she was doing right or wrong, and what was the point?
Especially regarding the actions in Changkong City, although she didn't know exactly what Cocolia was doing, she could sense that many innocent people might be harmed as a result. Did this really align with the principles of Anti-Entropy?
A bewildered Bronya encountered Raiden Mei in this situation. Although she was only observing her from the shadows, Mei's gentle smile somehow matched the smile of her mother in her dreams, making her mother's blurry face gradually become clearer.
Bronya, realizing she was becoming increasingly infatuated, finally decided to refuse to continue monitoring Raiden Mei. Her reason was that an unknown and powerful Awakened (Mo Yi) had appeared around Mei, and continuing to monitor her might lead to her being discovered. The real reason, however, was that she didn't want to let herself become immersed in Mei's smile anymore. The rational Bronya knew that what was fake would always be fake and could never become real.
I never expected to run into Raiden Mei again in such a setting.
After hearing Raiden Mei's apology, Bronya was once again caught in a dilemma: should she leave directly, or take the opportunity to get closer to the person who was like the sun in her heart?
"Mei- "
Kiana glanced at Bronya, who always had a blank expression, with displeasure, thinking to herself: What an arrogant girl, always giving us attitude.
"Mei, watch me shoot down that Homu doll— "
"I'm getting Mo Yi every day, so I want a new punching bag to vent my anger on."
Bronya's gaze sharpened again as she stared at Kiana.
PS: Episode 6: Mo Yi, feeling like he'd forgotten something, went into the kitchen and saw True Kiana cooking with great enthusiasm, which only deepened his doubts. He didn't know why, but something just felt off. Kiana shouldn't know how to cook, especially not for her new landlady. It was too much enthusiasm; even an ordinary person wouldn't act like that. Sensing Mo Yi's gaze, True Kiana turned around, flashing a bright smile, and said, "Mo Yi, go sit in the living room for a bit. It'll be ready soon." Outside the door, Mei and Kiana were discussing what to do. Finally, Mei spoke up, "I remember Mo Yi's phone number at this time. Why don't I call him, coax him down, and then bring up renting the place? He might refuse. Kiana, you know what to do, right?" "No problem. I know Mo Yi's personality very well. I managed to plan it before, so there's no reason it won't work now. We'll play the victim together, saying we can't find a place and we'll have to sleep on the streets tonight. He definitely won't be able to resist."
Chapter 112: Kiana: A true master only needs three shots.
Facing Bronya's sharp gaze, Kiana remained unfazed. "I won this Homu doll myself, so I can do whatever I want with it. I don't need Bronya's opinion!"
Just like my own husband, I, Kiana, like to have sex three times a day, so what if I make him stay at home all day cooking for me and taking care of the kids, and not allow him to go out to work? I don't need Bronya opinion!
As the most ardent HOMU fan in the entire Honkai series, Bronya certainly couldn't tolerate Kiana's plan to take the Homu doll back as a punching bag. Thus, Kiana's words became another reason for Bronya to stay.
Absolute
We must protect HOMU from this white-haired, twin-braided guy!
Kiana—
Miss Mei, annoyed by Kiana's provocative behavior, said, "Don't talk nonsense."
"Where did I say anything inappropriate?"
Since ancient times, Kiana and Bronya have been incompatible. Even at their first meeting, Kiana felt the sensation under the Yue Xia from the other party— Da Wei Ge, that enemy is worth fighting!
"I've seen Mei, use the giant Hug Bear in your room as a punching bag."
Miss Mei: "..."
The gist of the story is that Miss Mei's plan was ruined by Kiana once again. After sending Kiana out of her room, Raiden Mei, still angry, grabbed the Hug Bear on the bed and started hitting it, mistaking it for Kiana. Kiana, remembering something, turned around and went into Raiden Mei's room, where she saw this scene.
Let's let our strength speak for itself!
After Kiana finished speaking, she turned to the boss who was dozing off beside her and said:
"Boss, I'll take ten bullets."
After paying, he prepared to take the Homu doll home right in front of the Bronya.
"Bronya needs ten shots too—"
Bronya certainly couldn't stand it, so she also paid the boss, preparing for a fair and square match with Kiana.
"OK--"
The shop owner, who had been watching Bronya and Kiana bickering, smiled and thought to himself, "Youth is truly wonderful—"
"It's a pity, I was planning to take this Homu doll back to give to my granddaughter."
Kiana examined the plastic gun for a while, then asked Raiden Mei beside her, "Mei, what do you like? I'll make it for you."
Miss Mei glanced at the prizes displayed in front of her. They weren't anything valuable, just some girly trinkets. If they were valuable, they wouldn't be here. Business people never lose money.
Therefore, even if Little Brother Ma loses money hand over fist and wants to cry, he'll laugh until he cries.
"That--"
Miss Mei around, suddenly spotted a small box containing two tiny panda-shaped keychains, one blue and one red, and immediately fell in love with them.
Actually, she didn't particularly like pandas, but she remembered that Mo Yi once said that he liked panda cartoon patterns the most. Plus, Mo Yi didn't have any keychains yet, so wouldn't these blue and red panda keychains be the best little gift?
As for the reason, she had already thought of it: Kiana won it in a game, and since Mo Yi didn't have a keychain, she gave him a red one, and kept the blue one for herself.
Matching outfits, absolutely perfect!
In just one second, Miss Mei had already come up with a perfect little plan. This was all thanks to her training over the past few days. Having been outwitted Kiana almost every day, she had made great progress in her ability to plan.
Even if Kiana can't take them down, it doesn't matter. She can always do it herself. She, Raiden Mei, is determined to have those keychains! (Mei's main weapon in the game is a sword, but that doesn't mean she can't use a gun. Besides, sword masters are never bad with guns!)
"A keychain, right? Give it to me—"
Kiana shot at the little box that Miss Mei had mentioned.
Then, it tilted and didn't touch the small box at all.
Kiana: "..."
That crosshair is wrong!
At such a short distance, I'm a crack shot! Facing Miss Mei's puzzled gaze and Bronya's bewildered look as he faced a formidable enemy, Kiana calmly executed a quick parry and explained, "This gun is too light, I'm not used to it yet. I was just getting used to the feel of it. Now I'm going to get serious!"
Whether others believe it or not, Kiana herself is the one to decide.
At this moment, Bronya ignored Kiana's cute act and started shooting at the Homu doll with a plastic gun, intending to win before Kiana and protect the Homu doll, rather than relying on the idea that Kiana was a weakling and could not be defeated.
However, even after two shots, the Homu doll only wobbled a little; it was far from falling over.
On the other side, Kiana finally rose to the occasion. After getting used to the plastic gun with the sights adjusted by the shop owner, she shot down the keychain that Miss Mei wanted with her next shot. Then, in one go, she took down the other little trinkets that Mei wanted. After only three bullets left, she watched as Bronya continued to shoot the Homu doll in vain.
On one hand, he wanted to see Bronya make a fool of himself so he could unleash his full power; on the other hand, he was collecting data on how to defeat that enormous, plastic bullet-proof Homu doll.
Miss Mei whispered in Kiana's ear:
"Kiana, why did you stop shooting? Are you out of bullets?"
"No rush, let the enemy's bullets fly for a while longer."
