Russell: "..."
"Don't say anything that harms unity."
He raised his middle finger at the Prompt Device, then continued looking through the window at the flower shop in the distance.
The sight made Bronya, who was eating, unconsciously slow down.
The officer seemed to care a lot about that florist's daughter.
Did he think that girl would make a good attendant?
But she could do well too.
A faint sense of displeasure suddenly rose within her.
Thus, she swallowed the food in her mouth and spoke loudly.
"Officer, are you looking at the florist's daughter?"
Huh?
Russell's body jolted as he turned to look at the girl who had said something so startling.
Had she noticed he was interested in little Rita?!!
Could it be that he already looked so creepy that even Bronya thought he was a purebred Victoria Red Dragon lurking in Great Yan?
"If you need an attendant, I can do it well, Officer."
"I don't need any more colleagues."
Then the petite girl spoke again.
So that was it.
Russell instantly let out a sigh of relief.
So she was talking about the attendant position. It seemed he had not become creepy to that extent yet.
"About what you said—"
Russell looked at Bronya and cleared his throat.
"Please believe me."
The little girl seemed to have taken Russell's relieved exhale for a sigh. She seriously puffed out her small chest.
Facing the girl who was determined to win the attendant position, Russell thought for a moment and pointed at Rita.
"Uh... you'd better ask her about that."
?
Bronya looked up.
Then she met a smiling, lovely face.
"Miss Bronya, don't you think my face looks somewhat familiar?"
As soon as those words came out—
The little girl's body shook, her face filled with shock.
