Meltélise and Ryuga silently looked at each other, then tacitly separated.
Both of them had some understanding of each other's thoughts, and their actions coincided.
As Tachika Fujimaru's follower, Wei Gong naturally had no objections. After all, Ryuga's statement was indeed irrefutable.
"Then it's decided!"
Tachika Fujimaru finally made the decision.
"That … You should be the rescue team from Chaldea, right?"
It wasn't until the few of them finally finished talking about business that the female employee who had been ignored by the side timidly inserted herself into the conversation and spoke in fear.
"Why … Why are you with Alterego? Why don't you hurry up and beat her down! She's that BB's subordinate, she's an enemy! "
Her finger that was pointing at Meltélise was trembling violently, and her face had an expression of disbelief that Meltélise and the others were getting along well with each other.
Although she said so, her body was hiding behind Wei Gong. Her eyes that looked at Meltélise were also incomparably timid, and she didn't look like she had the courage to face her directly.
SE.RA.PH had fallen into BB's control a long time ago, and Alterego, as BB's subordinate and one of the labyrinth guards in charge of SE.RA.PH's order, must have left a very deep psychological shadow on these employees.
Not to mention, it was Parsons Lip who had been blocking the entrance of the control room, which naturally caused a huge impact on them.
"Meltélise is not an enemy."
Tachika Fujimaru didn't care about her rudeness to Meltélise. She could understand their thoughts, but she still defended Meltélise.
"Lilith is no longer BB's subordinate. She has been fighting side by side with us until now. She's an important companion!"
Sometimes, Ryuga really couldn't understand why she was willing to trust others to this extent. According to the conversation with Holmes in the past, she was probably betrayed many times in the past, but in the end, she didn't grow at all —
No, perhaps this kind of heart that still chose to believe others no matter how many times she was deceived was the most precious.
"Eh? Is it true … But, no matter how I look at it, it's so scary. "
The female employee adjusted her glasses and looked at Meltélise with suspicion and fear in her eyes.
"Lilith is already one of our companions … Well, you'll definitely understand this in the future."
Tachika Fujimaru thought for a while, but still didn't force the other party to believe her. After all, it was obvious that Alterego was BB's subordinate. It was impossible to change the victim's opinion all of a sudden.
So, she simply changed the topic. "By the way, my name is Tachika Fujimaru. I rushed over from Chaldea because I received a distress signal. What about you?"
"Ah, I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself."
She pushed her glasses again, and then bowed to Tachika Fujimaru with a slightly respectful attitude. "My name is Mabel Margent. I'm 28 years old this year, unmarried. I was an ordinary employee who controlled the control lever in the control room."
She inexplicably emphasized the word "unmarried". Combined with her age of 28 years old, it gave people the feeling that she was old and wanted to get married.
By the way, because the oil field base was a subordinate organization of Chaldea, relatively speaking, the status of the emissary sent by Chaldea was higher than the ordinary employees.
"Miss Mabel, how is the current situation in the control room?"
Tachika Fujimaru immediately asked her, "Other than you, how is everyone else?"
"Eh? In the control room … it's actually not good. "
Mabel's tone was a little evasive and hesitant. "It has been a long time since the base was computerized. During this time, a lot of things happened. Many people died. Other than me, there are only three people left: Arnold, Miss Torapien, and Holly. But Miss Torapien said that she wanted to try to contact Chaldea, and then she never came back. Holly took a lot of morphine and locked herself in the cupboard for a week. So, only Arnold and I are left in the control room."
"Because I really couldn't stand such an environment, and there wasn't enough food, I secretly ran out while Alterego was sleeping …"
In other words, there were only two people left in this huge oil field base.
And after this woman named Mabel sneaked out, there was only one person left in the control room.
"How did you run out?"
Ryuga looked at her, and there was not a trace of strangeness in her eyes. It was as if she was really facing an ordinary employee who had escaped. "Are you that good on your feet?"
Although Parsons Lip's speed was very slow, it was not something an ordinary person could compare to.
"Oh oh! Really … What a rude child! I graduated from Rockefeller University, and I participate in the marathon every year. Although I entered this school because I heard that it wasn't mandatory to participate in the marathon, why do I still have to participate in the marathon in the end … "
She lowered her head and muttered a bunch of words. Her tone and demeanor were mostly filled with complaints and decadence. She didn't look like a very smart person.
"Looks like she's not a useful person. And she's always making a fuss. Is being able to attract the enemy's attention her only advantage?"
Meltélise looked at Tachika Fujimaru, and there was not a trace of dissatisfaction on her face. She just smiled and asked, "How about it? What are you going to do with her? Are you going to throw her away? "
"Ahhh! I told you so! Alterego is an enemy! "
Marble was shocked when she heard this. She screamed, "I'm also a human. At least I'm more like Tachika Fujimaru's companion than you! Don't sow discord between us! "
What kind of relationship can there be between you two?
"Don't worry, don't worry. I definitely won't throw you away. Lilith was just joking."
Tachika Fujimaru comforted Marble's emotions, and then thought for a while. "But, we're going to explore the other areas of SE.RA.PH. It's not convenient for Miss Marble to move with us … Anyway, let's send her to the church first. At least it's safe there."
Ryuga looked at her silently.
This girl definitely did not know what kind of thing she had with her.
But if she stopped them now, it would arouse their suspicion … It was better to pretend that she did not know. And in this way, at least most of their actions would fall into his eyes. It would not turn into a terrible situation where they were in the open and the enemy was in the dark.
After making a decision, they brought Marble with them and walked in the direction of the church again.
