This place again.
Berry thought the other party must be crazy, otherwise why would they always choose such a place to meet.
It was the same with Arnie's time, and it's the same this time.
But this time, Berry felt a little uneasy.
Because she couldn't quite believe that guy actually agreed to meet again, since there was no longer any connection between them.
Looking at the silver-glowing dog tag in her hand, Berry took a deep breath and stepped upstairs.
Never mind, the ambush was already set.
She would act according to the situation then.
That's right, the person Berry was going to meet was Stott.
That tigress in uniform, always looking like she was about to devour someone, yet screamed louder than anyone in bed...
"I can't believe you actually dared to come."
When Berry pushed the door open, Stott was standing by the window, arms crossed, puffing on something.
Frowning in displeasure, Berry waved her hand dismissively, dispersing the smoke in front of her.
Besides V, she didn't like anyone smoking in front of her.
"Why wouldn't I dare? Since I made the call, I dared to come."
Berry found a chair and sat under the exhaust fan in the room, finally feeling a little better.
"Heh, interesting."
Turning back to glance at Berry's petite figure, Stott sneered.
"Before you talk about your business, I want to ask, is that guy Arnie really dead?"
Turning around, Stott walked up to Berry, looking down at her sitting in the chair.
Arnie, ah Arnie.
It finally came up.
Arnie is no longer in the underworld, but legends of Arnie are everywhere.
This blonde old woman in front of her was just such a person.
Who told her to 'chew on tender grass' and push Arnie, who was less than three months out of the factory.
But unfortunately, Arnie's Chassis was completely ruined.
Berry shook her head and handed the dog tag to Stott.
This was the dog tag taken from Arnie.
Arnie had given this to V when he sacrificed himself, but Arnie had also received it from Stott.
After a full circle, this dog tag finally returned to its rightful owner.
"...Still the same."
Taking the dog tag, her fingertips tracing the inscription of her name on it, Stott's expression was complex.
No need for further words, Stott already knew the answer.
Silence stretched for a while.
So long that Berry wanted to say,
If you really miss him, I can make you a replica.
But thankfully, Stott eventually recovered and spoke.
"You didn't just come here for this, did you? Just say what you want."
Finally, to the main point.
Berry breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems playing the emotional card really works.
Arnie, thank you.
I'll burn more incense for you when I go back.
Electronic incense...
"I want you to help me investigate which force this thing belongs to."
With a solemn gaze, Berry pulled out a transparent glass jar containing a green solution from her toolkit.
