Before she arrived, Mia had imagined what Renee Kane would be like in many ways, but never once had she pictured a scene as bizarre as this.
She didn't understand. How could Renee Kane be so composed?
So composed, in fact, that Mia began to wonder if she was the one who was surrounded.
Mia suddenly began to suspect that Renee Kane had known all along why she was there.
Taking a deep breath, Mia sat back down in her chair.
Renee Kane casually pulled out a cup of milk tea, took a slurp, and said with an air of complete composure, "Alright, tell me about your plan."
Mia was speechless.
She gritted her teeth. "When did you figure it out?"
Renee Kane, who was in the middle of chewing on a boba, looked up in surprise. "Hm? Figure what out?"
Mia felt like she was about to suffocate.
'Can someone please tell me why the prophesied Explorer is so... bizarre?!'
'Is she genuinely clueless or just playing dumb?!'
*
Of course, Renee Kane was just playing dumb.
