Crossing the Star Railway: The Beginning of the Starry Sky Twins

“Ah…”

As soon as she walked out of Krippenburg and turned a corner, Bronya covered her chest and couldn't stop gasping for breath.

Although I had been pretending to be calm before, this was the first time in my life that I lied to someone, and the person I lied to was my own mother...

Bronya only felt her heart beating violently, making a continuous "thump, thump" sound.

Suddenly, an arm was placed on Bronya's shoulder, and Bronya was so scared that she almost screamed.

"Bronya! You're back!"

Bronya turned around and saw that it was Pyra who was looking at her with surprise.

"Ah, it's Pera..."

Bronya let out a breath, almost frightened to death.

"What's wrong with you? You look so frightened?"

Pera was a little surprised. It was the first time she saw Bronya like this.

"Nothing, just coming back from the lower district, I'm a little tired."

Bronya waved her hand.

"The lower area... By the way, what about those people...?"

Pera's eyes were a little complicated. At this moment, Pera was just like Bronya before. Although she didn't believe that outsiders would do such a thing, she had to believe it since the Great Guardian had given the order.

Looking at Pera, who wanted to know the truth but was a little afraid to know it, Bronya hesitated for a moment and felt that she should continue to lie to the end.

Otherwise, if it is leaked along the way, the whole plan will be ruined.

"As the Great Guardian said, they are the culprits who attracted the creatures from the Rift."

"how come..."

Hearing this, Pera was struck by lightning and her face turned pale.

I just couldn't believe that those outsiders who helped the children and their families and had long conversations with me and Bronya were really the culprits who attracted the creatures from the Rift Valley.

Everything before was actually a disguise.

Looking at Pella's appearance, Bronya felt a little bit reluctant, but she could only bury the truth in her heart temporarily.

Sorry, Pera, you shouldn't get involved in these things.

Bronya shook her head and could only offer a few words of comfort to the distraught Pera.

Next, it’s time for me to talk to Shiluwa and Jeppard.

Arriving at the machinery room, Bronya knocked on the door.

"Who is it? It's not business hours now, come back later."

"Silva, it's me, Bronya."

"Bronya? You're back. I heard from Jeppard that you followed the outsiders to the streets eroded by the Rift. Are you not hurt?"

Shiluwa's voice came from far away and then the shop door opened.

As Cocolia's former best friend, Silva often took Bronya out to play when she was a child, so to Bronya, Silva was like an aunt.

And since Shiluva does not hold any political position now, Bronya trusts Shiluva immensely in all aspects.

It's not that he doesn't trust Pella, but as an intelligence officer of the Silver Mane Guard, Pella has to deal with high-level officials and even the Great Guardian every day. It would be less suspicious if Pella remained in such an anxious state.

"I'm fine. I came here to discuss something with you."

Bronya nodded to Silva.

"Well, come in and talk."

Xiluwa realized that things might not be simple, because ever since she had a falling out with Cocolia, she had no access to high-level affairs at all.

In the perpetual motion machine house, Bronya told Silva everything in detail, and Silva was amazed.

"So that's how it is. I was wondering if those outsiders looked like bad guys. Sure enough, it's Cocolia who's causing trouble again..."

Shiluwa seemed to have a headache, but she also understood why Cocolia had undergone such a big change.

"Mother has been bewitched by the star core. I believe that as long as the star core is destroyed, she will return to the way she was before."

Bronya's tone was firm, which made Silva stunned.

"Oh, no wonder, I told Cocolia about the star core a long time ago... It seems that at that time... It was a good decision for you to go to the lower area."

Looking at Bronya who had grown a lot in front of her, Silva smiled.

Because of the previous falling out with Cocolia, Bronya has rarely dealt with me since then.

But she didn't expect that for such an important matter, Bronya would be the first one to come to her. It turned out that she had always been so important in Bronya's heart, which made Silva feel warm in her heart.

"After the Rift Creatures attacked Beloberg, Jeppard came to me to complain. He always felt that there must be a misunderstanding, but unfortunately he was caught in the middle and it was difficult to do anything."

Xiluwa shook her head. This was the first time she saw her younger brother coming to complain to her with such a sad face.

"Haha, come to think of it, when I received the order that day and led the team to capture them, Jeppard was the first one to stand up and persuade me."

"That kid... is just a stubborn person. He believes that those guys are good people. So even if the Great Guardian gives an order, although he will execute it, he must firmly believe in his heart that they are good people. So he felt guilty that day."

Xiluwa smiled helplessly.

When she thought of that day, Bronya suddenly found it a little funny.

At that time, I had clearly made up my mind to obey my mother's orders, but in the end I was easily controlled by Xing.

"I don't know, what are they doing now..."

Bronya picked up the teacup and took a sip. Even though she had just left, she actually missed the days in the lower district.

"I haven't seen you with this expression in a long time. It seems that you are having a good time in the lower district."

Seeing Bronya's expression, Silva smiled.

"Eh, is it that obvious?"

Bronya felt a little embarrassed. When did her ability to hide her emotions become so poor?

"Although your expression doesn't show it, your eyes don't lie. When you talk about the things in the lower district, I can see the happiness in your eyes."

"This is not good... What if my mother sees..."

Bronya quickly patted her face and returned to her usual cold expression.

dong dong dong.

There was a rapid knock on the door.

"With this frequency, this kid comes back pretty quickly."

Shiluwa got up and opened the door, and it was Jeppard standing outside.

"Sister, Lady Bronya, I'm so glad you're okay."

Jeppard nodded to Silva, then walked in and bowed slightly to Bronya.

"Jepard, there's no need to be so formal in private. Come and sit down."

Bronya waved to Jeppard.

"it is good."

Jeppard nodded and came to sit down at the table.

Xiluwa looked outside the door, saw that there was no one around, and then locked the door.

"Well, now that everyone is here, tell me, Bronya, what do you want to do next?"

The three of them sat down, and Xiluwa asked with a serious face.

"Next, the lower district will counterattack the upper district. I want the Silver Mane Iron Guards to perform a show with me."

Bronya looked at the Landau siblings who were so surprised that they opened their mouths with a confident smile on her face.
