People are in Arknights and becoming Griseo at the beginning

"...?"

After hearing what Roy said, the expression on Centaurea's face visibly froze, and her eyes were full of doubt and disbelief.

She seems to have heard something incredible...

"Don't be so surprised, little Platinum. Of course, we can't let you monitor the knight lady all the time. This time, the mission is just to let you monitor her and pay attention to her movements." Looking at the surprised Platinum in front of him, Roy waved his hand gently and explained with a smile.

"...I know, I will pay attention."

After a moment of silence, Centaurea restrained her expression, nodded gently, and agreed. However, she actually had no right to refuse.

After all, slacking off is slacking off, but a killer who is really disobedient and resists orders has no place in a killer organization.

"Don't be lazy this time. The higher-ups still attach great importance to this Knight Bianka." Seeing Centaurea like this, Roy narrowed his eyes and reminded her in a low voice.

After saying that, The Lazurite turned around and planned to leave directly, but thought something again, stopped, and added with a smile.

"To be honest, I think you can go to that place before you go on this mission."

After his voice fell, Roy did not stop at all and walked away.

"..."

Watching Roy's back as he left, Centaurea's emotionless little face slowly showed a trace of doubt and complexity.

To be honest, she felt that she should consider how to get out...

How to get out of this city that became turbid and full of undercurrents after Bianka appeared.

After all, making money is making money, and a free life is a free life, but if you accidentally lose your life, it will not be worth it.

However, although she had the idea, Centaurea decided to wait and see and make a plan first.

At night in Kalawariekli, on the bustling street——

"Here."

Holding two drinks, Bianka walked back to Maria and handed one of them to her.

"Well, thank you."

Maria thanked her quietly after taking the drink.

Then, as if she remembered something, she continued to say: "Thank you, Bianka, for being willing to accompany me at night."

"What's there to thank for such a small thing? We are friends, aren't we?" Hearing this, Bianka showed a helpless smile, and then patted Maria to comfort her.

"Okay, don't think about it. There are too many people here, and it's not convenient to eat. Let's find a quiet place."

After her voice fell, Bianka no longer gave Maria time to struggle. She changed to holding things in one hand and gently holding Maria's hand with the other as they walked through the busy street with a surge of people.

In fact, as early as this afternoon, Bianka noticed that her friend had something on her mind.

She didn't like to pry into her friends' affairs, but... Maria was obviously "troubled," so she felt that she still needed to ask.

But who knew that before Bianka could take the initiative to ask, Maria directly asked her to go shopping in the evening.

So she didn't ask in the afternoon. After all, there were other people present at the time, and this time it was just right to stay until the evening.

"..."

Being pulled by Bianka to take the initiative, Maria did not resist at all, but a trace of guilt quickly flashed in her golden eyes.

In fact, long before, she felt that Bianka have noticed something but just didn't say it. And now she even felt that someone might have known what she wanted to do tonight.

'Alas...'

After sighing softly in her heart, Maria shook her head, clearing the messy thoughts from her mind, and then she showed a determined look.

After all, the people had already made an appointment, and at this moment, she had no way out...

...

Finally, the two found a quiet place with a nice view and sat down.

Bianka looked at Maria, who was sitting next to her with a tangled expression and opened her mouth several times but didn't say anything in the end.

Her blue eyes showed a trace of helplessness, and then she spoke.

"Maria, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly. I will keep it a secret for you. Keeping it in your heart will make you feel bad."

"Hey, Bianka, you really saw it." Bianka's sudden words startled Maria, and then she said with a look of "as expected."

After finishing speaking, she seemed to deflate, and continued to mutter: "But...but...or let's just forget it!"

"Heh~"

Seeing this look on her friend's face, Bianka just chuckled and didn't ask any more questions. Then she changed the subject and said: "Have you used up the ointment I gave you last time? I still have some here, and I have prepared a set of protective gear for you."

After her voice fell, Bianka picked up a large bag from the pile of things she was carrying and put it in Maria's arms.

In fact, Bianka had wanted to prepare protective gear for Maria a long time ago, but it was different from ointment. It took some time to make it custom-made. It was only finished this afternoon, and she didn't get it until the evening.

As for why Bianka gave these things to Maria, the reason was very simple...because Maria, the craftsman apprentice, was too easy to get injured when learning and practicing in this area.

So from the first time she found Maria injured, Bianka started to send her medicine and also customized this set of brand new protective gear.

"...Hey, why did Bianka suddenly think of giving me protective gear?" Maria was holding the items in her arms in a daze. It took her a while to react, and then she cried out in surprise.

Obviously, she hadn't realized how the topic jumped to this point, and the protective gear... subconsciously, she glanced at her slender arms covered by her sleeves.

"It was ordered a long time ago, but it was only finished today. Although there are some risks that cannot be avoided as a craftsman, you still have to pay attention." Hearing this, Bianka smiled and stretched out her hand to touch Maria's head before explaining.

"Well, really. Bianka is like this every time..." Already a little entangled and ashamed after being hit by Bianka's "friend care," Maria was now even more entangled...

In fact, she had prepared a gift for her friend, but she was always a little embarrassed to take it out, especially after being treated like this, she was even more embarrassed.

She was a little afraid that Bianka would dislike it...
