On Sunday, I sat quietly in my chair, motionless, until the two figures completely disappeared from sight.
He then slowly opened his eyes again and turned to face the quiet bookshelf beside him.
There, a purple-haired man dressed as an ancient Greek scholar, holding a book, slowly stepped out.
"How dare you give that thing away? Fools never act with any sense of propriety. Head of the Oak family, you've done something so stupid it makes my scalp crawl."
Ladio even considered wearing a plaster cast on his head.
Use plaster to block the view of the idiot!
"Erudite professor, I think this is irrelevant to your needs."
Smile on Sunday.
"But your actions have forced me to re-examine the correctness of this cooperation. Do you know what the consequences will be?"
I understand your concerns.
Sunday sighed softly.
"Transferring guests' deposited items to others without the owner's permission would undoubtedly cause serious damage to the family's credibility if the matter were to be leaked."
“Give me a reasonable explanation, or our cooperation will end immediately. I don’t want to get on board with a fool; that could land me in the water.”
“Professor Ladio, you should know that fishing requires not only good fishing gear, but also a sufficient amount of bait.”
He explained calmly on Sunday.
"If you think of Pinocchio as a fishpond, then the family is the pond owner. The most effective way to lure those onlookers who only watch from the shore without revealing any clues is to give them free fishing gear and bait to try."
"Besides, the company's bait is not that fragile. Its insurance and encryption measures are extremely strict. I don't think an ordinary fool would be able to open that box."
"And by doing this, I hardly have to bear any real cost."
Especially after the plan succeeds.
Ladio listened expressionlessly, his cold demeanor masking every word as he rapidly considered all the possibilities in his mind.
He paced around the round table a couple of times, then turned to look at him as Sunday finished speaking:
"This radical approach is unlike anything a family would do."
"Indeed, it has nothing to do with the overall will of the family."
I readily admitted it on Sunday.
"This is my personal arrangement, and I will bear all the consequences if any negative impact arises afterward."
"Please rest assured that no matter the outcome, it will not affect the cooperation between the family and the professor."
“As long as you assist the family, I will give you all the results of our research on the star core. You should know very well that no faction other than the family is willing to share such knowledge.”
"..."
Ladio remained expressionless, which was taken as tacit agreement.
……
The gold dust is gone.
Qiong proposed an idea to have Huang Quan use his command power to cut him down, and assured that Huang Quan would not hold back due to any doubts.
This is precisely the purpose of placer gold.
Although he felt that something had been overlooked, he still agreed.
However, before he could take the stage, he still had some preparations to make. After agreeing to have the script sent to him via his phone, Sand Gold left.
"Bye~ My favorite character's rate-up is coming up soon, remember to pull for me later!"
Qiong bid farewell to her half-brother with great enthusiasm, then looked at the long-silent Black Swan and revealed a shy, reserved smile:
"Big sister, would you like to have dinner together? We can also dance together."
"..."
The black swan's mouth twitched slightly.
Qiong's youthful appearance reminded her of that unpleasant night.
After experiencing a series of massive pitfalls involving Yomi, Mei, and Sora in one night, she now has a bit of PTSD about the word "dancing."
He coughed twice, his expression turning serious, and a smile played at the corners of his elegant lips.
"Thank you for the invitation. Next time... I have some personal matters to attend to. I'll make it up to you next time."
"I see, then okay."
Qiong feigned a disappointed expression, then smiled.
"You're always welcome to come visit me!"
After saying that, Qiong prepared to turn and leave.
"...Ah, please wait a moment."
"Ok?"
Qiong stopped and turned around. A slender, white finger brushed across Qiong's cheek.
"I apologize for my previous seemingly inappropriate behavior. Please accept this small gift."
If you don't get caught spying on someone's memories, that's fine, but if you do, it's not much different from a thief getting caught stealing.
In order to build a good relationship with Qiong and obtain his memories, it is necessary to express gratitude.
Qiong gazed at the card in her hand, which featured a black swan in the style of a tarot card, numbered zero, and contained the power of the Memory Receiver.
Perhaps it could be combined with the element of "wind" for gameplay.
"Isn't it common sense to show your chest when apologizing?"
Qiong said righteously.
"..."
How dare you bring that up?
The black swan's elegant smile froze for a moment.
But she's not the kind of naive young girl.
"If you're willing to share your memories with me."
The black swan, embodying the elegance and composure of an elder sister, slowly raised her right hand to stroke Qiong's face, her red lips parted slightly, and she softly said:
"That works too!"
"Hey, as expected, Kafka's mom was right. The prettier a woman is, the more likely she is to lie. I'm so angry and cold. Can't this society be a little better? Can't there be more honest and kind kids like me?"
He agreed verbally, but how could Qiong, being an old fool, not see that the Black Swan was using this teasing method to defend itself?
If you can call a child a good child, then probably only the Fool in Mask can call a child a bad child.
Black Swan silently complained to herself, then stopped arguing with Qiong and left.
"Tsk, boring."
Watching the black swan disappear, Qiong clicked his tongue, shook his head, put his hands in his pockets, and leisurely left.
PS:
My eyes are feeling better, although it's still a bit uncomfortable to look at the computer for a long time, but I've recovered to the point where I can update twice a week.

Volume 1: Chapter 591 The Date Operation, My Beloved Wolf Lord
With the help of Tom and Jerry, everyone escaped from the deeper layer of the dream.
To ensure a better performance rhythm for the upcoming script, Kiana takes the lead in saying goodbye and leaving to 'encounter' Huang Quan and lay the groundwork.
Ride Yana, attack!
On March 7th, Hoshi returns to the real world and shares the bizarre experiences of this dream investigation, the truth about the impossible, and information related to 'death' with his fellow train crew members.
Detective Mitsuki readily accepted the responsibility of uncovering the mystery, in her own words.
"This is the moment of deduction for the great detective's destiny!"
She couldn't wait to utter the famous line from the Fisherman's Case: "There's only one truth!"
Qiong multitasks, efficiently allocating her resources.
Located in the Immortal Boat Luofu, Yuehen, who idly plays with a little pillow, serves as the main thread, designing the script and coordinating the direction of the script. The other core processing units serve as auxiliary units.
He himself accompanied and comforted Liuying, who was 'frightened' during the dream investigation.
After all, Xing and March 7th still don't know the girl's true identity. If she were just an ordinary girl who had experienced such a dangerous situation, she would be afraid to sleep at night.
Recently, the Galaxy Succubus, who has been playing visual novels, immediately realized with her rich gaming experience that choosing to escort Firefly home alone would undoubtedly be the option that would increase her affection level the most.
Without hesitation, she pushed Qiong over, taking on the task of keeping the seemingly slightly jealous San Yueqi in check.
Although they usually bicker and fight over various beautiful girls, when it really comes down to it, they always have an absolute understanding of 'uniting against the outside world'—that's who they are!
Liu Ying glanced around discreetly, a hint of shyness barely perceptible on her pretty face, her heart filled with a mixture of excitement and subtle nervousness.
It's just the two of us now!
Her gaze involuntarily drifted to her own hand, which was hanging naturally at her sides, and then quickly swept over Qiong's hand, which was so close to hers. Should she take it?
A fleeting thought made Liu Ying's cheeks flush slightly.
Given Liu Ying's straightforward nature, she would most likely take a direct approach and take his hand without hesitation.
but.
Thinking back to the last time I met Silver Wolf, I remembered the earnest advice my friend had given me…
'When on a date, it's best to let the guy take the initiative to hold your hand, right?'
But what should we do?
The white threads of fireflies remain a mystery.
At this point, shouldn't we request off-field assistance?
While Qiong turned to buy a drink, Liuying quickly and discreetly took out a miniature communication device controlled by brainwaves from her pocket. It looked like a pocket-sized Bluetooth headset.
She deftly put them on her ears and cleverly concealed them with her cascading silver hair, making them completely undetectable from the outside.
[Shadow Moon Wolf, I deeply love the Wolf Lord.]
Liu Ying concentrated her mind and sent out this message through brainwave activity.
Liu Ying didn't know the exact meaning of these eight characters, but perhaps they were related to the game Silver Wolf was playing?
In short, this was the code Silver Wolf had given her before. As long as she entered this code, she could receive remote assistance from Wolf King, the master of the field of love.
"come yet?"
In a technologically advanced, dimly lit room, the intense clicking of buttons and a distinctively melodious, heart-wrenching background music intertwine.
In front of the enormous screen that occupied the entire wall, Silver Wolf was completely focused on the fierce battle before him, his fingers moving so fast on the controller that they almost left afterimages.
Suddenly, a semi-transparent holographic projection message box popped up, forcibly cutting into a corner of the screen.
As she glanced at the message, Silver Wolf's fingers, which were practically crushing the controller, lessened their pressure, and she unusually chose to stop the game.
"Hmph~ Thank Ms. Samuel, she saved your life."
Silver Wolf gave a cool snort at the screen.
If it weren't for the importance of Liu Ying's matter, she would definitely have shown that guy who dared to mock her what a box weapon was and what it meant to die a violent death!
No, taking a step back will open up a whole new world; holding back will only make you angrier.
"Xiaoyuan, go to his browser, save the data, and send it to all your relatives and friends!"
The wolf king gave the order.
"Have some decency, you still claim to love Wolf Lord so much."
