While talking, Claire and the young man walked into the cafe side by side.
Miriam waved her hand: "Okay, let's follow, be careful not to be discovered."
Altina also waved her small hand, but the difference was that Miriam waved it vertically, while Altina waved it horizontally - just in time to stop Miriam.
"No, there are too many people, the target is too big, and it's easy to be discovered."
"Ah, yes, I originally wanted to investigate together with Rean." Miriam realized later, "Hmm... Xiaoya, do you have any suggestions?"
Altina really had a suggestion: "We should split up. Instructor Rean and I go in through the front door, and Miriam, Yuna, and Kurt go through the back door."
"Ah, so cunning. I also want to act with Rean. It's been a long time since we fought side by side." Miriam was unhappy.
"This is the most efficient allocation. The instructor and I have the best cooperation." Altina refused to give in.
"I'm not convinced by this. Xiaoya came later, although I wasn't the first one."
"But I have been paired with the instructor for the longest time. The old Class VII only had one year, and I have one and a half years!"
"Then let Rean choose who to team up with."
Li En: "..."
Can I not choose? Didn’t I see that Yuna and Kurt next to me were already in a state of watching the show? Especially Yuna, if I say the wrong thing, she will look at me like a scumbag.
However, considering that both the black and white rabbits are children at heart, they would definitely not accept it if they didn't tell them. So Li En really thought about it.
"I choose Miriam!"
As soon as these words came out, Miriam suddenly held her head high, put her hands on her hips, and was squeaking.
Altina, on the other hand, had a gloomy face and stared at Li En without blinking: "Instructor——"
Rean quickly reassured: "It's not that I don't have a tacit understanding with you, but it's because Miriam, Yuna, and Kurt don't have experience in cooperating, and Yuna and Kurt don't have experience in stealth maneuvers. They can only rely on You got it - you said it, the most efficient distribution."
Only then did Altina give up: "Understood the mission, Yuna-san and Kurt-san, let's go."
Yuna snorted, but still glared at Rean with a scum-like look.
Rean ignored her and gave Kurt a look - take a good look at them.
Kurt was used to this kind of thing, so he nodded and left.
Miriam and Rean were also able to move on and enter the cafe.
The cafe was large and the environment was quiet. Claire and the young man happened to choose a corner location, which provided a lot of convenience for Rean and Miriam to sneak in, and was more in line with the unobtrusive style of the date. .
——Although Claire is a beautiful scenery no matter where she is.
With his outstanding eyesight, Rean keenly caught the smile on the corner of Claire's mouth: "Well... the atmosphere seems to be good."
"It's hard to tell." Miriam's little face turned serious, "Maybe it's just Claire who is cooperating with him."
Rean carefully recalled the scene of his previous meeting with Claire, and saw some clues.
When I said that I wanted to work hard with her, and when I was shopping in Palm, she really didn't smile like this. At that time, she felt more relaxed, and the meaning of her smile was different.
Rean could probably guess what it was specifically, but he couldn't explain it clearly.
Therefore, when Miriam said that Claire might have a boyfriend, Rean's first reaction was disbelief. She obviously liked me.
It's not narcissism, but Rean trusts the witch's judgment more in this regard - Miriam has zero experience in this area. There are many married people in Caster who have children. Who knows love better? Needless to say. .
But on the other hand, Rean was really curious about what was going on. It was rare that both Miriam and himself were free, so he came.
At this time, Miriam's attention was completely focused on the man, and she kept muttering: "Whether he is worthy of Claire or not, I must take a good look."
Seeing this, Rean smiled slightly: "You really like Claire, is it because you regard her as your sister?"
"Ahaha, is that so?" Miriam still has no common sense in this regard. "She is different from Xiaoya. I'm not sure whether it can be directly incorporated into the relationship of 'sisters'."
"Why not?" Rean asked, "You are all 'iron-blooded children', his adopted children, and your adopted sons and daughters are also brothers and sisters."
"In that case, Rean will be my brother."
"Shh, keep your voice down. Although you are right, you can't say this."
"Yes, this is something even more top-secret than our identities.
However...it's a little different from the perspective of the 'Iron Blooded Son'. Rufus is the nominal eldest brother, but I don't have any friendship with him. Claire and Lecter are different. They have been very kind to me since my uncle adopted me.
Looking back now, it is precisely because of this that I felt a similar feeling of 'sadness' in Class VII. If you put it this way, Claire is indeed like my 'sister' and 'mother'. "
This is the root of Miriam's actions today. If one day he finds out that Alisee has a boyfriend, he will definitely use all kinds of connections to get to the bottom of that man.
If there is something wrong, Li Blast will start and there will be no limit to the top.
Just when Rean was thinking wildly, Miriam suddenly let out a sigh.
Rean asked subconsciously: "What's wrong?"
"I think Rean treats Xiao Ya a bit like Claire treats me. Is it because he treats Xiao Ya as his sister?"
"That's right, although now he has the identity of an instructor. To use your words, he should feel like both an elder brother and a father."
"That's right. We need to take more care of Xiaoya in the future."
"Of course. Before that, we need to solve the problem of Major Claire. I think I probably know what's going on."
"Huh? Isn't it a date?" Miriam realized later.
"no."
Just as Li En was about to explain, there was a vibration from the terminal. When he opened it, he saw that it was a message from Yuna.
There are members of the Railway Gendarmerie hiding at the back door, seemingly on some mission.
Miriam is also an operator of the Intelligence Bureau after all. She has carried out many tasks independently. After reading the information and scanning the entire cafe, she quickly saw the problem.
"Those two men in black... actually want to do harm to Claire? Rean, let's go and catch them!"
Of course Rean would have no objection.
Although he didn't bring a sword - mainly because he couldn't bring it, Rean's popularity is too high, and weapons like tachi are too rare in the empire. When the weapon is revealed, it basically means identifying oneself, and the concealing effect of black-rimmed glasses is lost. .
But those men in black were not strong men. They didn't even use the "hands-free stance" and were knocked down with just two punches.
On the other side, the man in black who was watching at the back door was also suppressed by Altina with a "light saber", and was turned to the nearby Railway Gendarmerie members by Kurt and Yuna.
What's interesting is that at this moment, the young man in a suit and leather tie is still chatting with Claire about the bright future blueprint, completely unaware of Claire's increasingly cold eyes.
It turns out that this man met with Claire to win over her and use her connections to open up new transportation routes.
——However, it is not an ordinary transportation route, but a smuggling route. The man and his transportation company are simply a cover, and his true identity is a smuggler.
Claire was willing to contact him because she knew his identity and wanted to obtain decisive evidence from him and bring him to justice.
Now that Claire has got it, there is no need to talk nonsense with him anymore.
Show your cards, reveal your identity.
The man's expressions range from surprise, to confusion, to hysteria, which is particularly interesting.
The unwilling man still wanted to fight to the death, but he didn't expect that the railway gendarmerie had been surrounded nearby, and the bodyguards were also captured by Li En and others.
He had no choice but to surrender. During the whole process, Claire sat firmly on the fishing platform without even pulling out her gun.
It wasn't until the criminal was taken away that he walked towards Li En and his party.
Miriam immediately started shouting: "I hate it——! Claire is so ignorant——! If it was a TMP operation, why didn't you tell me from the beginning..."
Claire chuckled and skillfully stretched out her hand to straighten the beret on Miriam's head: "The content of this operation has always been classified as a confidential matter. I am also very grateful to Rean and all the classmates for their assistance. Although That’s what I was looking forward to from the beginning.”
"Ah, it turns out that we have been discovered by instructor Claire." Yuna scratched her head in embarrassment, "I thought we were well hidden."
Altina said: "In other words, everything is a disguise for the search."
"Yes, I infiltrated his smuggling group and collected decisive evidence." The man has been arrested, and Claire has nothing to hide.
"Decisive evidence?" Rean frowned, thoughtfully.
"What's wrong? Rean, what's wrong?" Claire asked.
"I thought of some doubts - Yuna, you went to the police academy and know about searches. Did you see anything?"
PS: Yes, although nothing is said in the game, there are doubts about this bond plot, and there are more than one. Can you guess it? (Mainly because the plot background is really silly).
