Chapter 6 Mei: It's over, the old me is going to turn evil.
The next day arrived as promised.
Raiden Mei, full of anticipation, arrived at school with the lunch she had prepared for Chen Feng.
She couldn't remember the last time she felt this much anticipation when she came to school.
During this dark period, Chen Feng was practically her only ray of light.
Now that she knows what she can do for him, she is very happy.
She sat happily in her seat, quietly waiting for noon to arrive.
But today she discovered that Chen Feng still hadn't arrived.
He usually arrives earlier than me.
Maybe something happened on the way that delayed them.
As time passed, Mei's heart gradually became restless.
Looking at the clock, which showed that there were only two minutes left before the school bell rang, she became restless.
Something's not right, he hasn't arrived yet.
Ten seconds left...
Nine……
eight……
seven……
"Oh no! I'm going to be late!"
A clear female voice came from outside the classroom door, followed by the sound of running.
Just as the school bell rang, Kiana finally entered the classroom.
She hurriedly sat back down in her seat and wiped away imaginary cold sweat from her forehead.
I almost missed it.
The future Kiana, watching the flustered Kiana, frowned and said, "You need to change this habit. You're always so clumsy and have no sense of time. How will Chen Feng want you in the future?"
Upon hearing Kiana's words, Kiana was filled with grief and indignation.
"Why do you think I got up so late?! What was wrong with you yesterday, making me train so late?!"
"I'm trying to temper your temper. Your current personality is really annoying, even I find you unpleasant."
"Tch, who cares what you think?"
Kiana muttered something under her breath, then slumped onto the table.
Suddenly, she turned her head to look at Chen Feng's position.
It turned out his seat was empty.
She asked疑惑地问道, "Where did this sealed can go?"
"At this time, he should be participating in an experiment."
The future Kiana was clearly aware of him during this period, so she didn't show any emotional change.
Rather than worrying about Chen Feng, the most important thing now is to successfully reform this impulsive and rash version of myself.
The first step to success will be when you can calm down and take the initiative to befriend Chen Feng.
The second step was to lure him into her bed.
Hehehe...
Kiana looked at the big Kiana who suddenly started grinning like an idiot, and she couldn't help but move closer to the side.
Why do I feel a strange malice?
Unlike the relaxed atmosphere around Kiana, the light in Mei's eyes had completely dimmed.
We had agreed to have dinner together today.
But he didn't come today.
Is it because you promised me yesterday but couldn't refuse, that's why you didn't come?
Mei gave a self-deprecating laugh.
Sure enough, I'm the kind of person who's quite annoying.
His kindness during this period was probably just because he has a good personality and treats everyone that way; I was just being presumptuous.
She lowered her head, her fingers unconsciously rubbing back and forth along the edge of the lunchbox.
Inside was the meal she prepared early this morning, and it's still warm.
She suddenly didn't know who to give the lunch to.
The future Mei looks at her gradually darkening self, and she feels a huge headache coming on.
Oh no, I was so happy yesterday that I forgot about this.
Bronya seems to be participating in an experiment, which is why she didn't come to school.
He really didn't stand me up on purpose.
She can only watch helplessly in front of the screen; she can't even hear herself speak.
Seeing herself already turning to the dark side, she decided to turn off the screen.
Out of sight, out of mind.
After turning it off, Raiden Mei sat in her chair, feeling increasingly frustrated.
A few minutes later, she arrived at Bronya's company and found Bronya.
Bronya was quite surprised when Raiden Mei arrived.
She watched Raiden Mei enter her office and asked curiously, "Mei-neechan, what brings you here?"
"Nothing much, I just suddenly got really angry at Cocolia. Why did she have to do the experiment on that particular day of all days?"
Upon hearing this, Bronya lowered her eyes, sat back down in her seat, and spoke calmly.
"Although I don't know how Cocolia suddenly offended Mei, Bronya doesn't want to talk about it right now."
Mei snapped out of her daze after hearing Bronya's words.
That's true, after all, so many years have passed.
But seeing her former self in a darker state today, she still felt somewhat helpless.
Revealing one's own dark past to oneself is somewhat like rubbing salt into a wound.
So my emotions fluctuated a little.
Raiden Mei sighed softly and said, "Actually, it's not that I suddenly became like this. It's just that I saw... no, I dreamed about what happened back then. When I was at my most desperate, Chen Feng gave me a glimmer of hope, but he left because of the experiment. Otherwise, I wouldn't have gone to the rooftop..."
When Raiden Mei mentioned Chen Feng, Bronya paused slightly while drinking her coffee.
Chen Feng...
Bronya sighed softly.
"Actually, after the experiment ended, I was definitely not friendly to him, after all, Seele fell into the Sea of Quanta because of it..."
"But why did Mei-neechan suddenly bring up things from your childhood?"
Bronya looked up, her eyes filled with a searching gaze.
They had known each other for so many years, and she had never heard Mei mention what happened back then, nor would they ask.
Now that Mei is suddenly using a dream as an excuse to talk about it, Mei senses that something is wrong with her.
Can a dream really cause such a strong emotional response?
Bronya didn't believe it.
Mei noticed Bronya's suspicious look, but her expression remained unchanged.
"Dream on. After all, this thing is uncontrollable, and I don't know how to use Feather Crossing."
Bronya stared at her for two seconds without saying a word.
Mei didn't offer any further explanation.
A moment of silence fell between them.
"...Bronya just felt that Mei was acting a little strange today."
Bronya picked up her coffee, her tone indifferent.
"Maybe the dream was too real."
Mei smiled and changed the subject.
Mei also felt that the other party was being a little too fixated on this issue.
Both of them had a slight suspicion, but neither of them spoke up.
A silence fell between them, not awkward, but something indescribable was flowing between them.
After a moment, Mei stood up.
"Then I'll be leaving first."
"Um."
Bronya did not try to stop her.
Mei paused at the door without turning around.
Bronya.
"Um?"
"...It's nothing, let's have dinner together another day."
"it is good."
After Mei left, Bronya put down her coffee cup and her gaze fell on a spot on the table that seemed unfocused.
She thought about what her future self would say to her past self.
"You can completely trust him."
"I will only truly help you after your opinion of him changes."
Bronya let out a soft breath.
Trust...
She looked up and gazed out the window.
Bronya just felt that Mei was acting a little strange today.
She silently repeated the sentence to herself.
Not just Mei.
She herself seemed a bit off.
But she couldn't say where it was.
the other side.
Mei walked out of the company gate. The autumn wind blew by, and she subconsciously wrapped her coat tighter.
She glanced back in the direction of Bronya's office.
Bronya's reaction was calmer than she had expected.
But that calmness... wasn't quite right.
"Is she going through something too?"
Mei muttered to herself, then shook her head.
That's absurd. It's impossible for Bronya to see her past self in the future.
She took a deep breath and temporarily put the question aside.
Both of them noticed something was wrong with the other.
Neither of them spoke.
Like two planets that understand each other without words, they rotate in their own orbits, feeling a slight gravitational pull when they pass each other, but neither of them deviates from its orbit.
Because they were all unsure.
