I became a heart-stealing thief in Azure Files

"...Sensei?!"

【~???~】(Saki)

Saki paused for a moment, then shook her head vigorously from side to side: "Do you really think... that patting my head and 'sweet words' will make me submit?"

Saki's feelings began to waver...

Coopation is now unblocked!

【Saki Sorai (Power)★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆】

The untimely lifting of the bond made Amamiya burst into laughter.

Whether you wavered or yielded, only you know the truth in your heart.

In a gentler manner, he ruffled Saki's hair again, his expression a mixture of dissatisfaction and complexity, and left with the words, "Think it over carefully."

'Let's go check on the other two little rabbits next...'

Chapter Twenty-Six: Quiet and Reserved, Feng Cangmeng's Cute Illustrations

Compared to the slightly oppressive atmosphere in Saki's interrogation room, which was directly managed by Hanazawa...

The same furnishings, the same style. In comparison, MoeE seems much more 'relaxed'.

It wasn't just because the 'interrogators' weren't particularly professional...

This is also one of the reasons for the liveliness of the 'interrogated person'.

"Kazakura Moe...right?"

"Mmm-hmm." The flaxen-haired girl, chewing on a lollipop, nodded eagerly, appearing 'cooperative'. "Right... it's about time I asked—how much longer do I have to stay here?"

When does Valkyrie plan to let us go back?

—The attitude is 'positive response', but it's not positive enough in the right way.

Sitting on the other side of the interrogation table, Kirino coughed lightly, clenching her fist: "N-No, that's not right!"

"This is an important criminal interrogation; you should answer my questions seriously..."

"Why did you occupy the park? Why did you do that? There were other ways to resolve this, why did you ignore Valkyrie's warnings and insist on using this form of 'demonstration'?"

Moe's originally lively and cheerful expression suddenly darkened.

She chewed on the plastic stick of her lollipop with a crunching sound and said softly with a touch of melancholy, "...I just don't want to leave SRT Academy."

Kirino stroked the confession book in front of her and actually gave Moe's seemingly meaningless answer a serious consideration.

"Indeed... if I were suddenly told one day that I had to leave the Valkyrie Police Department... I would be extremely disappointed."

"The memories created together with comrades who have shared joys and sorrows—these aren't things that can be so easily discarded..."

Kirino sighed with emotion, but the next second, Moe interrupted her mercilessly, even showing an unexpected sense of relief.

"In fact, it's more like... finally saying goodbye to the Rabbit team."

"Saki criticizes me all the time, and Miyu cries at the drop of a hat..."

Kirino's expression instantly turned 'dumb' into beady eyes.

She was stunned for a long while before stammering, "Then... then why..."

"The reason you don't want to leave SRT, right?"

With sparkling eyes, Moe uttered a word Kirino hadn't expected: "Of course, it's for those mountains of weapons!"

"Weapons? If it's weapons... Valkyrie has them too, right?"

Moe gave him a slightly disgusted look, as if to say, "What do you know?": "No, no, no... SRT's equipment is much more advanced than the 'junk' Valkyrie uses!"

"Even with the considerable support they have now, Valkyrie's strength hasn't yet reached the point where they can challenge SRT!"

As Moe spoke, a sickly blush crept onto her cheeks, and her voice trembled slightly with her 'wild destructive desires,' as she became excited: 'Being able to use weapons of mass destruction at will... only SRT can do it, right?!'

"No, no, no... now we need to add another one, 'Xia Lai'!"

"That Arios Special Squad... those 'otherworldly weapons' they used when they arrested us... I'd heard about their capabilities before!"

"I heard that the tutoring department is producing a very small number of 'Otherworldly Weapons' right now, and they've already been deployed as secondary weapons by some members of the Justice Realization Committee. The power and combat effectiveness they've shown... tsk tsk..."

"Judging from this, Arios's team, who joined Xia Lai, has already acquired their own unique otherworldly weaponry, and it's highly customized... It's completely different from what Trinity showed, and it's even more powerful!"

"After we leave here... why don't we join Xia Lai?"

"If only I could also acquire my own 'otherworldly weapon'..."

Moe's increasingly excited remarks completely stunned Kirino.

what?

no……

What were we talking about again?

who I am? where am I? What am I doing?

After being bombarded with information about "another world weaponry" by Moe, Kirino couldn't help but think about her own poor marksmanship...

Everything else is fine, but my marksmanship is lacking...

If it's an "otherworldly weapon" with various special effects, could it cure my marksmanship problem in another way?

For example... those firearms that are designed to "hit the bullseye every time"...

Seeing that Kirino was about to be led inside by Moe, Amamiya timely used the keychain given to her by Nagisa to open the interrogation room door.

Standing at the door, Amamiya gestured to Miyu, whose expression grew increasingly complicated as she listened to her teammate complain that she cried at the drop of a hat, before entering the interrogation room.

Noticing the noise coming from the doorway, Kirino stood up abruptly, pushing aside the chair behind her and straightening her posture.

"The Bureau... Ah, Sensei?"

She instinctively wanted to call him "Director," but upon seeing that it was Amamiya who had entered, she quickly changed her address: "You've come at this time... is there any instruction you have?"

Amamiya shook her head, calmly walked to the interrogation table, and met Moe's burning gaze.

"...First of all, 'weapons of mass destruction' and 'alien weaponry' are not as wonderful as you imagine."

"Neither of them can be used so easily... especially the otherworldly weapon, which not everyone can wield and unleash its full potential."

After saying that, Amamiya took out her beautifully painted weapon—[God of Destruction].

The divine body of "Little Jehovah," combined with weapons refined from materials from another world, possesses a natural ability to attract attention.

"As for Kirino... don't even think about that 'guaranteed hit magic spear'."

“I can tell you definitively,” Amamiya said, flipping the gun in his hand with a series of fancy gunplay moves, before the gun suddenly transformed into another one.

"Although such weapons do exist, and there are many of them, and external objects are indeed reliable... we cannot rely on them all the time."

【Name: Deadly Bullet Shooter】

[Type: Weapon/Ranged Weapon]

[Weapon Category: Adaptive (Changes based on the user's optimal usage)]

[Skill: Deadly Bullet/Contract]

【Destructive Bullet: Attacks inflict "Disarming Damage".】

[Contract: The last bullet will fire indiscriminately, prioritizing the ally with the lowest health. Ammunition and weapons cannot be reloaded during combat. Ammunition replenishment and weapon changes are only permitted outside of combat.]

[Damage Relief: Damage that cannot be defended against, evaded, or mitigated by any means. Guaranteed critical hit.]

"Take this weapon in my hand, called the [Fierce Bullet Shooter]... It can ignore any physical factors such as the trajectory of the bullet and hit the target you want to hit. But the last bullet of this weapon will definitely hit itself, and there is no way to dodge or resist it."

"In other words—if the battle cannot be won before the 'last bullet' arrives, then ultimately, the one who will suffer the most severe damage will be oneself."

After showing off the dark red weapon, Amamiya prepared to put it away.

“Sensei… I’ve said everything I needed to say.”

Moe suddenly spoke, her eyes fixed on the weapon in Amamiya's hand that was radiating a 'deadly aura'. The ominous feeling that seemed to emanate from the weapon made her breath quicken.

"Could I take a look at your... [Bomb Shooter]?!"

Amamiya: "..."

This unusual enthusiasm for weapons was something he couldn't quite understand.

He had encountered dangerous individuals who were fond of firearms or firepower.

But someone like Moe... this is truly the first time he's ever seen one like her.

Amamiya slowly put away the gun, while taking a look at the cute illustration that seemed to be 'drooling with envy'.

[Assisted by: Kazakura Moe/Firepower Frenzy Big Rabbit]

[Arcana: The Appétit]

[Assistance Relationship: Not Unlocked]

'"desire"……'

'Moreover, it's the second "Desire" card after the Flower Path card...'

The high-hanging Arcana gave Amamiya a sense of 'as expected'.

The card "Desire" can, to some extent, be understood as a distortion of "power".

Or to put it another way... this is a special reversed form of the "Strength" card.

Those who hold this card are mostly bad people... or rather, they have some kind of distortion in certain cognitive areas that are completely contrary to ordinary people.

Moe's twisted nature... is clearly reflected in her title.

—'Extreme firepower enthusiast'.

Amamiya shook his head and put away the [Fierce Bullet Shooter] in his hand.

"Not suitable...at least not now."

Seeing that the "otherworldly weapon" that she was particularly interested in was taken away, Moe looked disappointed.

But she didn't say much, resting her chin on the interrogation table and slumping down limply.

[I sensed the emotional turmoil emanating from Moe.]

Coopation is now unblocked!

【Kazakura Moe (Desire) ★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

'It seems the Rabbit Squad isn't quite a cohesive team yet...'

Or rather, at least the "cohesion" they displayed was far less pronounced than that of Arius's team.

Amamiya rose from his seat and walked toward the door of the interrogation room.

'Let's go check on the current captain of the SRT squad...'

Chapter Twenty-Seven: I Want to Study the Fibonacci Sequence with Miyako

"So...it's Sensei who's going to interrogate me?"

In the quiet interrogation room, a white-haired girl wearing rabbit earrings sat on the other side of the interrogation chair with an exceptionally calm expression.

Her gaze toward Amamiya carried a sense of 'I can't tell you anything': 'It's no use even if Sensei comes to ask in person... It doesn't matter who it is.'

"No matter who it is, my answer will not change."

"Feel free to ask any questions you may have."

Whether you ask or not is one thing, but whether I answer or not after you ask is another matter entirely.

Amamiya could clearly sense Miyako's intentions.

He hesitated, not asking the question immediately as the girl had hoped.

When dealing with a girl whose psychological state seems 'perfect', one needs to be a little 'unpredictable' in order to break through her defenses more effectively.
