Honkai Q&A, the three lawyers vs. Kevin at the beginning

"Are you really... your period after ten years?"

At the dinner table, Kiana looked closely at Theresa, who looked the same as before she used the bazooka ten years later, and couldn't help but wonder:"Bronya, did you really hit your period?"

Bronya immediately put her hand on her chest and said seriously:"Kiana, I'm not lying."

Fu Hua:"……………………Don't cue."

Ji Zi said at the side:"Okay, okay, stop staring. Didn't I say before that Theresa's body has stopped growing and developing? Isn't it normal that she hasn't changed at all after ten years?"

Observing Theresa sitting quietly at the dinner table, Ji Zi also had an unrealistic feeling - she didn't expect Theresa to become so mature and stable ten years later.

If she wasn't standing in front of her, it would be hard to believe!

It's hard to imagine that ten years ago, she was still a little adult who would secretly read Homo comics during work.

"Hahaha——！"After confirming that it was indeed Theresa from the future, Kiana stopped talking again, covering her mouth and gesturing at the height difference between herself and Theresa:"I didn't expect that Auntie really hasn't grown any taller in the past ten years, hahaha! Could it be that even her clothes are from ten years ago?"

"Kiana, that's enough."

Jizi stroked her forehead and thought to herself, this stupid bug is really talking about something that is out of the question. Doesn't she know that Theresa hates people talking about her height?

Be careful to be crushed by Judas!

However, Theresa didn't show the anger she had imagined.

Instead, she just stared at Kiana quietly, with a hint of nostalgia and relief on her face.

"……Aunt, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that?……"

She was prepared to be scolded by Theresa, but seeing that Theresa was not angry at all and was staring at her, Kiana couldn't help but feel guilty:"I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have used your height as an excuse... I apologize to you, can't I?"……"

"It doesn't matter, as long as you are happy."

Theresa reached out and patted Kiana's head gently, her movements were gentle and serious, and her tone was also very soft, as if she really didn't care:"Don't care about my feelings."

Jizi:"？"

Fu Hua:"？"

Bronya:"？"

Bud:"？"

Kiana:"！！！"

Everyone present couldn't help but widen their eyes, and madly complained in their hearts,"Who the hell are you? Are you really still Theresa Apokalis who would immediately take out Judas and teach them a lesson whenever someone made fun of your height? Are you really not someone else disguised by the Herrscher of Reason Walter using his power?!

"Theresa, your temper...how come you suddenly become so good?"

Ji Zi looked at Theresa suspiciously, puzzled by her little boss:"Normally, if someone talks about your height, you would have lost your temper a long time ago, right?"

"Jizi, there is no need to make me sound so concerned."

Theresa turned to look at Jizi, still with a nostalgic smile on her face, as if she had seen an old friend reunited after a long absence:"Besides, I am the Archbishop of Destiny after all, I can't be as willful as before."

Although Theresa was the general manager of the Far East Branch and the principal of St. Freya Academy, she was still under the protection of Otto in the final analysis. Even if Theresa was unwilling to admit it, she knew in her heart that as long as Otto was still in this world, she could continue to play the role of Otto's granddaughter and enjoy his care.

Under such psychological effects, Theresa naturally could not really grow up.

This is why, after more than forty years, Theresa's growth is far less rapid than in the next ten years.

"Really?" Ji Zi raised her eyebrows:"In this timeline, you are already over 40 years old, but don't you still like to read Homunculus comics and buy Homunculus figurines?"

"Uh, personal hobby, personal hobby……"

Theresa scratched her cheek in embarrassment, and after thinking for a while, she decided not to reveal the fact that she still liked Houmu ten years later.

At this moment, the Herrscher of Rice also served the delicious meal:"Okay, the meal is ready, everyone come and try it.~"

"Mei, let me help you~！"

Unable to bear Theresa's gentle personality, Kiana hurriedly left the table to help Mei serve the dishes.

After the dishes were served, everyone began to taste them.

"Hmm~ As expected, Mei’s dishes are still so delicious!"

Because Mei was punished in the Q&A space before and could not enter the kitchen to pick up kitchen utensils for 48 hours, she ordered takeout for the past two days...

But as a Herrscher of Food, how can the cooking skills of the rice cooker be compared with Cricket Takeout!

——He simply didn't take her, the Herrscher of Food, seriously at all!

There was no other way. After two days of eating takeout, Chongchong was already starving and thirsty. Now that she finally got to taste the delicious food prepared by the little chef, Kiana couldn't help but let out a happy sound. She even vaguely saw the golden flash when she opened the pot lid!

Wow~! Golden Legend!

"There's no need to praise me like that.……"

Although she was very happy in her heart, Mei's face still blushed and she felt a little shy.

Jizi glanced at Theresa and said,"Theresa, you don't even criticize Kiana for making too much noise when eating at the table?"

"Why criticize?"

Theresa smiled softly:"I think it's good for young people to be more energetic. Doesn't this mean that Kiana is energetic?"

Jizi:"？？？"

Damn, is this still the Theresa she knew?

Kiana was also a little confused. She swallowed the food in her mouth blankly and looked at Theresa with a loving face. Her pretty face was full of discomfort:"Aunt... your future self... It feels really weird.……"

"Is there?" Theresa was slightly stunned, then she thought for a moment and said,"Maybe, I'm a little sentimental."

Thinking back to everything Kiana experienced in the future, and her steady and even slightly autistic personality afterwards, Theresa felt from then on... As expected, the noisy Kiana made her feel more at ease. Although Kiana, who kept everything in her heart, had matured a lot,... As a parent, Theresa was still worried and concerned about her mental health. If possible, Theresa still hoped that Kiana would always be noisy.

After dinner, Bronya seemed to finally couldn't help it, and suddenly said:"Bronya thinks the principal has really grown up.……"

Fu Hua also nodded seriously:"Indeed……"

"What do you mean I've grown up? Theresa didn't know whether to laugh or cry:"You guys……"

"I think so too." Ji Zi shook her head and found that she almost didn't recognize this future Theresa:"In that case, you shouldn't mind if I drink a little wine now, right?"

Ji Zi said, and planned to go to the refrigerator to look for wine.

"Wait." Theresa suddenly spoke.

Jizi:"What's wrong? Hey, hey, hey, principal, you have to treat everyone equally! You can't just favor Kiana!"

"No. I mean, give me one too." Theresa walked up to her, looked up at her, her eyes flickering with an inexplicable color:"Just right, I want to drink a glass today too."

Jizi looked at Theresa in surprise, muttering:"……It's really strange."

She picked up a bottle of beer and then took out another one and threw it to Theresa.

Theresa finished the beer and motioned to Himeko:"Go out and drink. It's not good to drink in front of children. You have to pay attention to the impact."

As an elder and teacher, drinking in front of juniors and students is somewhat inappropriate even after work.

It is for this reason that Theresa stopped Himeko from drinking in the past - in addition, her physical condition did not support her to drink again.

""Okay."

Jizi nodded, and walked to the promenade of the park with Theresa.

They sat on the bench and enjoyed the silence.

The moonlight from the dome poured down like mercury, illuminating their faces.

Theresa played with the beer bottle in her hand, as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.

"It's almost time for you to go back." Jizi took a big sip of wine, and her wine-red hair looked even more charming under the moonlight:"If you have anything to say, you will never have a chance again if you don't say it now."

Theresa was slightly stunned, and then a bitter smile appeared on her face:"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you……"

"Of course." Ji Zi also laughed:"After all, we have worked together for so many years. Your little tricks are not in front of me.���Can't hide"

"So, you stay away from children on purpose. Is there something you don't want them to know?"

"No, it's nothing." Theresa shook her head:"I just...just want to spend some time alone with you."

"Is that so?" Jizi took another sip of wine:"That's fine."

The two sat there, no one spoke, and the sound of cicadas faintly came from the bushes, accompanied by the chirping of insects and birds.

Time passed by minute by minute, and it was almost time for Theresa to go back.

Theresa looked up at the sky and suddenly said softly:"Thank you, Jizi"

"——Thank you for everything you have done for Kiana, for me, and for everyone at St. Freya Academy."

"——You are a role model for students"

"——He is also my most proud comrade-in-arms!"
