Mei: Wait for You to Come Back (Continued)

In order to complete the mission (probably), Bronya had no choice but to endure Mo Yi's perverse treatment. After a while, she got used to it and it wasn't a big deal anymore. Then she learned how Kiana dealt with Mo Yi and started to criticize him mercilessly.

But why?

Bronya thought she had fooled everyone, but it turned out the other party had known all along. Why then did the other party treat her, a person with ulterior motives, like a friend?

The so-called "Loli Con" excuse is just for making fun of people. Over the past few days, Bronya has become more and more familiar with everyone, has naturally visited Mo Yi's family and gotten to know the other members of Mo Yi's family.

In terms of cuteness, she really didn't think she was cuter than Mo Yi's Moonlit Theresa; at most, she was the second cutest in the world.

"Let this power shine brightly, illuminating the distant dreams ahead!"

"Bilibili..."

As the song progressed, Miss Mei, as planned, used her ability to control the battery factory (electromagnetic field) to make electric sparks continuously flash across the sky above the stage, illuminating the entire venue like a dazzling display of lights, instantly pushing the atmosphere to another climax.

Then, roused by some senior students, the familiar name once again resounded in the hall.

"Queen Mei— "

"My Queen—— "

"..."

Half a year ago, when Mei heard this title, although she didn't show it and said that everyone should stop with these formalities, she was still a little happy inside. After all, everyone likes to be popular and feel supported.

Then came the arrow to the knee, a reversal to the other extreme, from being the center of attention to being treated coldly. The contrast was extreme, and she harbored resentment because of it.

Ultimately, she couldn't accept the change. She longed for it all to be a dream, and that when she woke up, she would still be the Queen Mei, a happy girl who was pampered and protected both at school and at home.

But at this moment, when she heard others shouting "Queen Mei" in fervent voices, a name that symbolized past happiness, Miss Mei found herself unexpectedly calm.

It turns out that the emptiness in my heart, the cavern that appeared due to the changes, has been filled by everyone around me without me even realizing it. It turns out that I have found happiness again, and it is no longer the fragile sense of fulfillment I had before.

Thinking of this, Miss Mei glanced at her two friends as she spun and jumped, a slight smile appearing on her lips. Finally, she turned to look in a certain direction below the stage, at the person who was also looking at her at that moment.

Ali Gado, Mo Yi

From the initial salvation to now, thank you for being with me all this way.

Despite her many thoughts, Miss Mei's performance was not affected; on the contrary, it made her even more excited. As the performance was about to end, she prepared to give her final performance as planned.

The moment you toss a coin high into the air and catch it with your right hand, you transform it into Railgun and fire it.

As the music ended, an orange beam shot into the distance. Under Miss Mei's control, this Railgun, originally intended for performance, exploded like fireworks after flying a short distance, illuminating the somewhat dim venue.

After a few seconds of silence, the first clapping sounded, which instantly turned into thunderous applause and cheers.

"Clap clap clap clap..."

"Long live the Queen!"

After Miss Mei finished their performance, the applause lasted for a while before finally stopping, since the Newcomer Performance was not yet over.

For Mo Yi, however, the Newcomer Performance was over, and what followed was the storyline of 'The Fate/Night in the Honkai World'.

After Miss Mei left the stage, Mo Yi quietly left his seat and went to a secluded spot. He then used the Summoner Skill 'Teleport' and arrived a few seconds later in a somewhat dimly lit and cramped place—a changing room. (Mo Yi had placed Scout Ward there beforehand and then used Teleport on it.)

"I'm going to change my clothes now."

You can hear Mei talking to Bronya Miss Mei Kiana. Then the locker room door opens and closes quickly.

"Mo Yi, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Miss Mei opened the door and saw Mo Yi, she wasn't surprised. She quickly closed the door again, since this was the plan Mo Yi had told her beforehand.

However, hearing the line "Sorry to keep you waiting" in such a scene feels strange, yet also inexplicably exciting.

Mo Yi smiled at Miss Mei and said to her telepathically, "Leave the rest to me. I'll take you home first, Mei."

"Um--"

Then, Mo Yi used the Character Card of Star Guardian Bard to open a spatial passage. The two walked in and appeared in Mo Yi's living room the next second.

"Mei, just stay home and wait for my message. Don't worry—"

Mo Yi's house was recently reinforced again by Mo Yi, so even if it were bombed by missiles, nothing would happen to it.

"Mo Yi— "

Seeing Mo Yi about to walk back, Miss Mei called out to Mo Yi. Their eyes met, and after a moment, she said, "Be careful, and come back early—"

"Otherwise I'll be very worried, so worried I won't know what to do."

"Um--"

Mo Yi didn't know what to do at this moment, especially after knowing the other party's feelings. He had a thousand words in his heart but didn't know where to start.

"I'll be back soon."

After saying that, Mo Yi walked into the spatial passage. Miss Mei watched his disappearing figure, her outstretched right hand still frozen in the air.

Mei hesitated again.

Miss Mei wanted to give the other person a hug and a kiss of blessing, but because of her previous confession, although she usually acted strongly, she was more nervous at this crucial moment than before, fearing that the other person would show the slightest sign of rejection.

"Waiting for you to come back—"

After learning from Bronya when Cocolia make her move, Mo Yi naturally figured out how to respond. During this time, Mo Yi kept a close watch on Miss Mei, not giving Cocolia a chance to act.

Today, after Miss Mei's performance, she needs to go backstage to change clothes, while Mo Yi, being a student, should normally stay in the audience to continue watching the performance. This will create a short gap between them.

Plus, Miss Mei and the others were definitely excited after their performance, so they never expected to be ambushed at this moment.

Of course, all of this was Mo Yi's conjecture. The most important thing was that the other party would make a move today. No matter how high the probability was, Mo Yi couldn't just do nothing. So he thought of using the ability of the Niko, the All-Seeing to find an opportunity when no one would notice, transform into Miss Mei, take the place of the other party, and then send Mei home.

Besides being enhanced with Rune Magic, Mo Yi's family also has Happy Kallen, Yue Xia, and the S-rank Valkyrie Judas and Judah Launcher Auntie. Having discussed this matter with them beforehand and made some preparations, their combat power is naturally very strong. Unless it is an attack by the Anti-Entropy army, Mo Yi cannot imagine how Miss Mei will be captured!

As for Mo Yi, he is to replace Mei. If the other party really makes a move, Mo Yi will pretend to be defeated and captured. After they bring Mo Yi to their lair, he will suddenly revive on the spot, strike at the heart of the enemy, and finally eliminate Koko Tenzang, the culprit.

The plan wasn't particularly ingenious, but its strength lay in exploiting information asymmetry and Mo Yi's confidence in his own abilities.

Back in the locker room, Mo Yi was now Miss Mei in her school uniform, and Kiana's voice came through the door every night. "Mei, are you done yet?"

"How about I come in and help you—"
