The Least Reliable Person After the repairs, Xiao Shi once again obtained a Port.
After thinking it over, she decided not to send this Port out for the time being.
She still couldn’t find a suitable candidate.
Aside from that, Xiao Shi was also creating a Playback System.
All the plays previously performed in the Stigmata Theater could be saved in the Playback System.
Whenever a new audience member entered the Stigmata Theater, they could use the Playback System to watch previously performed plays.
This would prevent the awkward situation of new audience members knowing nothing about the plots of the plays performed in the Stigmata Theater, while also minimizing the waste of Emotional Energy.
“Host, this truly is a bold innovation.” As Xiao Shi gradually improved the Stigmata Theater, the idle System popped out again to praise her, floating around like a speck of light.
Xiao Shi immediately grabbed it.
“Improving the Stigmata Theater definitely isn’t Xiao Shi’s responsibility alone.
The System has to come out and work hard too.” Xiao Shi had long been somewhat dissatisfied with the System, which did nothing but watch the fun.
In the real world, Kiana had barely opened her eyes when she realized her center of gravity was unstable, nearly causing her to fall to the floor.
Fortunately, she was agile and quick.
She adjusted her balance as fast as possible and immediately steadied herself.
Only then did she notice that the other students around her were emerging from the classroom in groups of two or three.
Class had just ended.
The reason she had lost her balance was that she had previously been running toward the classroom, intending to look for Mei.
Kiana figured this out, but it made absolutely no scientific sense!
They had clearly spent so long inside that Stigmata Theater, so how had not even a second passed in the real world?
“Kiana, we’re over here.” At that moment, Raiden Mei’s voice sounded behind Kiana.
Kiana turned around excitedly, only to see Bronya standing beside Raiden Mei and even hugging Mei’s arm.
Kiana immediately became jealous.
Just as Kiana prepared to charge over and settle things with Bronya once and for all, Fu Hua’s voice rang out as well.
“Kiana, Raiden Mei, Bronya, please come this way.
The Academy Principal wants to see us.” “Auntie!” Kiana remembered the important matter at hand.
After everything they had experienced, Theresa would definitely come looking for them once the Stigmata Theater ended.
Thus, she could only temporarily set aside her grudge with Bronya.
However, she also ran over and clung to Raiden Mei’s other arm.
With two children hanging from her the entire way, Raiden Mei experienced the blissful troubles of happiness.
Everyone arrived at the Academy Principal’s office.
After they knocked and opened the door, Theresa was already sitting upright and waiting, with several books stacked on her chair as a cushion.
“Fu Hua, please close the door.
“All right, Kiana.
Stop fooling around like a child and hurry up and get off Mei.” Kiana felt that this was extremely unfair.
“Why?
Bronya was clearly hanging on her too…” But when she turned her head, she saw Bronya already standing obediently to the side, looking like a perfectly well-behaved child.
‘That irritating Shortie.
All she knows how to do is play these little tricks,’ Kiana thought.
She had no choice but to let go for the time being.
Theresa coughed and said, “I think you should all already understand why I called you here!
“Regarding that Stigmata Theater, we must find a way to investigate and obtain information about it.
“Also, Kiana, take the Pistol you obtained from the Stigmata Theater for testing later.” Theresa immediately began making arrangements.
At times like this, she was extremely reliable.
Kiana had no objections to this.
After all, it was only a Pistol.
Next, Theresa reiterated the importance of confidentiality.
Theresa said, “Kiana, out of everyone here, you’re the one I trust the least.
“Whether it’s Mei, Fu Hua, or Bronya, none of them would leak this information.
“You’re the one most likely to cause a problem.
“So you’d better remember this well.
You must follow the principle of confidentiality and never tell anyone about the Stigmata Theater.” Kiana pouted and said, “I listen seriously in class too.
Am I really that untrustworthy?
“Besides, why does this have to be kept secret?” She still didn’t quite understand.
In her eyes, the Stigmata Theater was merely a device that reenacted events from the past, like watching a movie.
Even if they learned about those past events, so what?
After all, the past couldn’t be changed.
Rather than dwelling on the past, it was better to look toward the future.
Theresa thought, ‘Obviously, it’s to prevent information about the Stigmata Theater from leaking out and reaching Grandpa, causing him to capture all of you and use you as test subjects.’ Theresa was absolutely certain that if such a thing truly happened, her grandfather would definitely do exactly that to locate the Stigmata Theater or discover how it worked.
Naturally, Theresa couldn’t say that directly.
She said, “Of course, it’s so our Far East Branch can have a trump card of its own.
“We need to research the Stigmata Theater ourselves and obtain the advanced technology inside it.
“If Headquarters discovers this, the research on the Stigmata Theater will definitely be transferred to Headquarters, and the four of you might be forced to relocate there as well.
“Do you want to leave St.
Freya Academy?” “All right, all right, I understand, Auntie.
I’ll keep it secret.
I definitely won’t let this matter leak out.” Kiana repeatedly assured her.
She didn’t want to leave St.
Freya Academy, nor did she want to be separated from Mei.
Theresa nodded in satisfaction.
As long as nothing went wrong with Kiana, everyone else was extremely reliable and certainly wouldn’t leak the information.
She said, “All right, then let’s first test the Pistol you obtained from the Stigmata Theater!
“Hmm, a weapon formed by extracting and condensing a concept from human mythology?
“Its performance in the Stigmata Theater was also quite impressive.
It has practically no recoil, and even Young Kiana could wield it with ease.
“Ordinary Zombies are completely unable to withstand an attack from this gun.
However, it may not be as practical against large Honkai Beasts.” Theresa felt that this gun might still be hiding some secret, but they currently knew nothing about it.
Everything would depend on the results of their research.
Speaking of which, she seemed to have forgotten something, but she couldn’t remember what it was.
Whatever.
The most important thing right now was researching the Stigmata Theater.
On the way, Fu Hua suddenly raised her head.
Sunlight reflected off her glasses, obscuring her gaze.
Fu Hua stopped and said, “Academy Principal, I just remembered that I still have several reports to organize, and I haven’t collected all the students’ homework yet.” Theresa looked at Fu Hua and said, “In that case, go take care of your own matters first.
“I’ll send you Mjolnir’s performance report later.
“Forget it.
You should come and collect it personally.
It’s best not to transmit it through electronic channels.” Fu Hua nodded and said, “Academy Principal, I’ll be careful to maintain confidentiality.” With that, Fu Hua turned and left, gradually disappearing into the distance.
After finally reaching a secluded corner of the academy, Fu Hua lightly tapped the frame of her glasses.
A holographic projection appeared before her eyes, and the figure formed by the projection was Otto.
“Lord Overseer, what is the matter?” Fu Hua asked upon seeing Otto.
The very purpose of her studies at St.
Freya was to monitor Kiana.
Any communication with Otto that wasn’t part of the plan would cause unnecessary trouble, especially at a time like this.
Otto chuckled and said, “Fu Hua, my old friend, there’s no third person here.
There’s no need for such formalities between us.
“I merely wanted to ask whether anything has gone wrong with K423 recently?” ★ ★ ★ Shilling time!
