Mei and Raven returned to Paradise Hall.
Pado also left.
Through Paddo, Mei and the others learned some things about the new hero, Gretchen.
Meanwhile, players also learned that the Kosmo wasn't as aloof as Kevin; he just liked to daydream and didn't like to talk.
I also learned that Alicia was genuinely happy all day after touching Mei's corner.
Right now, she's holding a megaphone and shouting everywhere—[Mei agreed to let her touch her horns~~ She finally touched Mei's horns~] .
Mei: "...Alicia!!"
……
Although Alicia was shouting everywhere with a megaphone, besides the raven, the only other thing left in Paradise was the memory of the Thirteen Heroes.
Moreover, those heroes were not interested in this matter.
Therefore, while it may be said that Alicia is spreading rumors everywhere, it's not actually a bad thing.
It's probably Alicia's optimistic attitude that's at play; she's just entertaining herself.
But even with all that, Alicia is incredibly cute and playful.
Mei wasn't really angry with Alicia.
Compared to that, she felt that figuring out how to get to the "Deepest Place" was the most important thing.
"Hi~ Mei, you're back 々〃 ~"
"How was it? Did you enjoy your time with Aponia? Do you have any stories to share with me?"
Meiyi: "..."
Mei was speechless when she saw Alicia again.
Kakuzu was touched, but the path that Alicia helped open did not lead to the "Deepest Place".
Therefore, Mei still feels a little resentful when she sees Alicia now.
"Oh...you don't seem too happy. Your horns are all red. Is something wrong?"
Meiyi: "..."
She took a deep breath, trying to make her tone as calm as possible: "Yes... there really is a problem."
"The raven and I never reached the deepest part."
When Mei said this, she sounded a bit like a wronged woman.
After all, in her view, the way to the deepest place was something she "gave her body for".
However, Alicia outsmarted him.
After listening to Mei's complaints, Alicia explained the situation to Mei.
It turns out that the "world in the painting" is the only way to reach the deepest depths.
Therefore, Alicia did not lead the wrong way; however, how to get through that "world in the painting" is the problem that Mei and the others need to consider.
Just as Mei was in a bit of a dilemma, Pado came up again, confidently saying that she could take Mei along a shortcut that would allow her to sneak past Kosmo's obstruction.
Meiyi: "..."
"If that's the case, why don't you just take me to the deepest part? Surely there's more to it than the 'path' you mentioned?"
Upon hearing this question, Pado awkwardly scratched her cheek: "Well... how should I put it..."
"If it's just Ah Mo who's angry, then at most I'll just have to suffer the consequences."
“But if I take you to the deepest place, and Brother Jie and Sister Nia find out… then I’ll really be split into [Pado] and [Felice]…”
……
【Hahaha……】
[Wow... there are just so many memorable scenes in this part of the story, I'm living in Bengbu, haha...]
[“Kōzu is furious”, “Padō: Felice, whom no one can mess with”...]
I can just picture Alicia running around with a megaphone shouting, "I touched Mei's clothes!" Hahaha...
Alicia is so cute and lovable QAQ
Hopefully, this joyful storyline can continue.
[Did Otto, you scoundrel, see this? Just keep writing like this, don't throw in any more angst (warning)]
Don't be fooled by appearances, brothers. Have you forgotten that you can still die in paradise? The plot is definitely not that simple.
Indeed, just look at Qianjie and Sheshe; these two heroes are quite dangerous, and I sense something is wrong.
[Yes, yes, and Mei was just struggling with how to get to the deepest part of the world when Patto came knocking on her door the next second...]
[Does the person upstairs mean... there's something wrong with Pado?]
[That's a possibility, after all, she's Yingjie, a fusion warrior. Her flustered appearance might just be an act. It's commonly known as—concealing her true abilities. Could there be some kind of conspiracy?]
……
The discussion in the comments section was quite lively.
The players' doubts are understandable, given the significant information gap.
While the recent episodes are filled with joy, a closer look reveals some underlying issues.
From the very beginning of the Paradise's anomaly, to Mei and Aponia's later meeting...
Until now, Mei is searching for a way to reach the "Deepest Place".
If you connect these events together, you'll find that Alicia's presence has been present throughout this series of events.
Whenever Mei has a problem, Alicia will jump in and guide her.
The first time was when Mei went to find Paddy.
The second time, touching the horn helped Mei open the path to the "Deepest Place".
The path was opened, but it didn't lead Mei to the "Deepest Place." Instead, it introduced Mei to a new hero.
Now, Mei is in a dilemma again, but Paddo comes looking for her, saying she can lead Mei down a side path...
Such a coincidence is bound to arouse suspicion among players.
Moreover, from the first time Mei met Alicia, this woman showed unparalleled enthusiasm towards Mei.
Do people in this world really exist? Who completely open their hearts to someone they've just met?
No! Absolutely not!
People who are this enthusiastic usually have some kind of ulterior motive.
[Could it be that Alicia has some ulterior motive and is intentionally guiding Mei?]
Could it be... that Alicia (Wang's Zhao) in the game is a seemingly innocent but actually cunning person?
[Could it be that Paddo's arrival was also orchestrated by Alicia?]
……
Thinking about it this way, many players find it hard to believe.
After all, the real Alicia is an incredibly enthusiastic, lovely, and kind-hearted girl.
But... that's not necessarily true in games.
After all, it's normal for artworks to be altered...
Therefore, even though they know that Alicia is not "pink on the outside but black on the inside", they still can't help but think of Alicia in the game as "pink on the outside but black on the inside".
……
【No way... Alicia is definitely not a heartless, evil woman QAQ】
[Haha... I think it's quite possible~ With Alicia's playful personality, she might actually want to be a villain for once?]
[I disagree... If miHoYo wanted Alicia to be the villain, Alicia would definitely say, "Are you really willing to... make such a beautiful girl, like a delicate flower, the main villain?" No]
[Upstairs... you understand Alicia...]
[Ahem... If Alicia really is the main villain, I would absolutely never lay a hand on her (with a straight face~)]

Chapter 235 Pado, Top Translator
in the game.
Mei followed Pado down a small path and arrived at the end of the studio.
Before she could finish observing her surroundings, a group of strange monsters appeared and completely surrounded the two of them.
Upon seeing this, Pado was so frightened that the fur on her tail stood on end: "Ahhh...where did it come from?!"
