Meeting Jeanne (3)

"Hmph, alright, now that you speak for her, I know that you are still very loyal to your savior, even if she is a piece of wood that is lawful neutral."

Seeing her best friend talking to outsiders, Beatrix became displeased, and her tone became even stronger. However, no matter how this lady talks, you can't feel unpleasant. The tone of this young lady's speech was always a little coquettish, with a particular charm that made people unconsciously forgive her rudeness.

"Beatrix, you are so biased. Who said that all lawful neutral people are dull? When Second Lieutenant Keiko rescued me back then, she actually acted in complete violation of military orders. But without her acting without the authorization, it would be impossible for me to sit here and talk to you. Lawful neutrals also have a clear self-judgment. Don't you think so, Second Lieutenant Keiko?" Jeanne refuted solemnly and then looked at Keiko with a smile.

Keiko's forehead was dense with sweat. She cleared her slightly dry throat, reached out and lifted the brim of her military cap, then smiled and said, "You're too exaggerating, Major Armstrong."

"Really? This is the first time I heard that Keiko had acted without authorization back then?" Seol-Hyun Ae was also interested.

"Yeah, the team was all separated at that time. The order from above was to make a rendezvous in the north. She was the only one who turned back and came to rescue us," Jeanne smiled, "But even though she violated the military order, her alignment deviation value was surprisingly still very stable. It's incredible…"

Keiko was silent, not knowing how to answer.

Jeanne's words continued, and this time another bombshell was thrown out by her in a relaxed and casual tone.

"I heard that there was an incident in my father's general's house before. It was a major event, but her faction was still as firm as ever. My father didn't tell me what was going on. I'm naturally really curious about it." Jeanne licked her lips in an ambiguous manner and stared at Keiko with her foxy eyes, "Second Lieutenant Lee, can you tell me about it a little bit?"

"Ah...this..." Keiko looked embarrassed.

"Oh, sorry, it's probably something that can't be said. I'm talking too much. I don't know if it's because of this that my father dispatched Second Lieutenant Keiko to the West Army's mecha division," Jeanne's smile grew brighter.

"..."

This time, Seol-Hyun Ae, who didn't feel anything at first, also noticed something was wrong. With a cautious look on her face, she looked at Keiko, who had a tormented face, and at Jeanne, who was smiling beautifully and suddenly shivered involuntarily.

She thought to herself, 'My God, it's so scary... Did Keiko and this Major Jeanne have something going on between them?'

"Give another one to Lieutenant Lee," Seeing that Keiko's glass was empty again, Jeanne ordered the bartender.

When the bartender was pouring the liquor, Keiko hurriedly used the excuse of the toilet to escape from Major Jeanne's claws and planned to wash her face and take a long breath. In less than 40 minutes of chat with Jeanne, the amount of information she heard was too much. She was a little confused now and needed time to sort it out.

Standing in front of the mirror in the bathroom, Keiko washed her face, regained her composure under the stimulation of the cold water, and gradually figured out some clues.

In the past, Keiko's faction was so stable that even though she did something beyond the scope of the faction, her alignment deviation value wasn't shaken in the slightest. It was probably because of this peculiarity that she was suddenly transferred to the Northwest Army Mecha Division. Perhaps General Armstrong wanted to use this uniqueness to achieve some purpose.

As the daughter of General Armstrong, and the person Keiko had rescued, Jeanne also knew about Keiko's particularity and had a strong interest in it. She didn't know whether she genuinely didn't know about Keiko or not, but what she definitely knew was that this woman was very dangerous. What was the purpose of her research? Did it have anything to do with her coming to Ein?

"Damn, why did things turn out like this?!" Keiko gritted her teeth and cursed in a low voice.

'Could it be that... I really possessed a special body? Could it be that... I am involved in some unknown conspiracy?'

If she understood Jeanne's words correctly, then this was by no means just an assumption or her delusions, but a very probable fact.

"I need to be more careful, this matter isn't as simple as I thought before."

After adjusting her mood, Keiko finally returned to her seat calmly. Jeanne and Beatrix were already packing their things.

"I'm sorry, Beatrix is not good at drinking, I'd better send her to rest earlier, so I'm sorry," Jeanne said in an apologetic tone.

"Major Armstrong is too polite. Let us give you and Miss Heisenberg a ride," Seol-Hyun Ae said quickly.

"Thank you very much, but I have just called the driver. The driver should be nearby and will be here soon. You guys continue to play," Jeanne rejected Seol-Hyun Ae's kindness without hesitation.

She helped the drunk Beatrix down from the bar, and Seol-Hyun Ae and Keiko accompanied them all the way to the door of the bar.

As soon as they went out, they saw a black luxury sedan parked at the door.

Seol-Hyun Ae and Keiko helped Jeanne to bring Beatrix into the car, closed the door, and Jeanne went around to the other side to get into the car.

When passing by Keiko, she quietly whispered to Keiko in a very soft voice, "You have to be careful, don't be reckless."

The expression on her face was elegant and natural. It didn't look like she had just spoken, so she sat in the car and walked away.

Keiko raised her head, subconsciously clenched her fists, stared at the car that was passing away, and sighed deeply.
