"Wait, wait!"
Upon suddenly hearing that Kaito wanted Wendy to go see Ei right away, Miko hurriedly called out to stop them.
She couldn't help it; she still didn't quite trust that Wendy would refrain from blurting out important matters when facing Ei.
Therefore, she needed to coach Wendy a bit before letting her go see Ei.
"What's wrong?"
Kaito looked at Miko, appearing somewhat puzzled.
"Yeah, is there something else you haven't mentioned? Hurry it up."
Clearly, Wendy was already growing impatient; she looked like she wanted to set off immediately.
"Why the rush? You can go see Her anytime, anyway. She won't mind."
Seeing Wendy's impatient demeanor, Miko sighed before continuing, "Actually, I'm just worried you might say things you shouldn't—like revealing that Kaito and I were the ones who took the Visions."
Although Miko felt Wendy probably wouldn't be that foolish, she still wanted to mention it just to be safe.
Otherwise, if things went south, Kaito had his own immense strength, plus Wendy and Mei to rely on. But as for her? She would be done for.
After all, if she had to face Ei, she would have absolutely no power to fight back.
Hmm...
If we get caught, that guy Kaito should...
He would protect me, right?
Suddenly thinking of this, Miko fell into deep thought.
"Do you really trust me so little, you little fox? How could I possibly do something like that?"
Just as Miko was lost in thought, Wendy responded with great dissatisfaction.
She really couldn't understand—was she really that unreliable in Miko's eyes?
"I'm just worried you might let it slip accidentally."
Realizing her suspicion was a bit excessive, Miko explained her concerns. Then she continued, "If I'm not mistaken, Ei will definitely ask you about Kaito's origins. Of course, you don't necessarily have to answer Her; just brush Her off casually. Since you share the same status, She won't say anything. Besides that, She will likely ask you about the others..."
"Others? What others?"
While Miko was still speaking, Kaito couldn't help but interject.
After all, right now it was just him, Wendy, and Miko here. Who were these "others"?
The Acheron side?
When did the Raiden Shogun find out?
"Your other girlfriends, of course. Aren't there two more? It should be two, right?"
As she spoke, Miko became a bit uncertain herself.
She couldn't help it; she really didn't know much about this aspect.
After all, who knew how many girlfriends this guy Kaito actually had?
"How does the Raiden Shogun know about that?" Kaito asked again.
"Uh... actually... She asked me, so..."
"I get it. But She definitely only knows there are two more; She shouldn't know anything else."
Seeing Miko looking a bit embarrassed, Kaito nodded to indicate he understood.
He knew that if the Raiden Shogun was aware of Acheron's existence, She would definitely have come over personally by now, rather than just sending Miko.
"Yes, that's all She knows." Miko nodded.
"So the Electro Archon will also ask me about Big Sister Acheron and the others," Wendy said, seemingly understanding the situation now.
"Yes, just give Her a casual answer."
Looking at Wendy, Miko nodded again.
"If we just brush it off casually, the Raiden Shogun will still be curious," Kaito said regarding Miko's suggestion.
He felt that if Miko wanted the Raiden Shogun to stop enforcing the Vision Hunt Decree, they needed to take some action.
"Then what do you plan to do? Bring Mei directly onto the stage?"
Hearing Kaito's words, Miko realized he had an idea.
In that case, she had to hear what he had in mind.
"Let's have Acheron come here."
After thinking for a moment, Kaito voiced his thoughts.
Since they had already stolen the Visions, it was necessary for the Acheron side to make an appearance.
"Mei?"
Surprised by Kaito's directness, Miko fell into thought before continuing, "So... are you planning to have Mei and Wendy go see Ei together?"
Miko knew that Mei would have to appear eventually, but she hadn't figured out how it should happen yet.
"No need. I'm thinking of letting Acheron take the blame for stealing the Visions."
A plan had already formed in Kaito's mind.
"You want Ei to think Mei is... the one who took the Visions?"
Rephrasing Kaito's words from another angle, Miko looked quite astonished.
"You guys are actually going to make Big Sister Acheron take the fall for what you did? Careful she doesn't beat you up," Wendy commented leisurely.
"Little girl, don't interrupt when adults are talking."
Miko had been contemplating the potential consequences of this action, but Wendy's sudden interjection interrupted her train of thought. So, adopting the stance of an adult, she scolded Wendy.
Although Wendy was stronger than her, in her eyes, Wendy was just a little girl—and a bratty one who tried to annoy her all day at that.
But well, being the bigger person, she wouldn't bicker too much with this immature brat.
Of course, she still had to say something; otherwise, she would seem to lack authority as an adult.
Afterwards, Miko continued to ponder the potential impact of Kaito's method.
If Ei believed the theft of the Visions was heavily related to Mei...
Then...
What would Ei think?
Would She feel that it was Makoto telling Her not to do this anymore?
That seems... quite promising...
Continuing to think about the possible outcomes, Miko felt that Kaito's idea was excellent.
However, how were they going to let Ei know that the theft of the Visions was related to Mei?
And what should they do after Ei found out?
Thinking this, Miko asked, "So how do we let Ei know that the Vision theft is actually related to Mei? And what should we do after that?"
Miko knew that Kaito definitely already had the answers to these questions.
Just as she expected, Kaito spoke up, "Have Wendy go tell the Raiden Shogun. After all, as the Anemo Archon, it's normal for her to know such things, right?"
After saying this, Kaito smiled.
Wendy?
Upon hearing Kaito's answer, Miko immediately looked at Wendy.
She had to admit, this was indeed a good method.
If anyone else said it, Ei might not believe them. But if it was the Anemo Archon, that would be different.
