Angel's sudden inquiry left Laplace a bit puzzled, as this question could naturally be addressed after entering Rabbit Mountain, there's no need to ask at the gate.
Once Laplace turned her head and saw Angel's somewhat hesitant expression, she immediately understood.
This inquiry from Angel wasn't out of genuine curiosity about the purpose, but from compassion for the Rabbit Girl. He wanted to deduce the purpose in reverse, to see if they could avoid going to Rabbit Mountain and choose another place instead.
Laplace's guess was not wrong; it was indeed the truth.
To Angel, the "secret base" was not merely a place name but also the enlightenment of fantasy in the heart of a child, expectations for the future, the wings of a dream, and the source of aspirations. Trespassing a child's secret base would not only cast a shadow over their childhood but could also destroy the dreams they are building.
