Chapter 488 Cat Cake Trial Voucher... or...?

"What happened to you four...three of you?"

Liu Bai was prepared for the three female monkeys to squeal and pounce on him as soon as he pushed open the door.

...Okay, that's a bit of an exaggeration.

However, in any case, the scene that should not appear is the three people sitting obediently.

"No, it's nothing."

Estella's voice still sounds strange.

It doesn't sound like anything at all.

“That’s too suspicious.”

Mebius spoke without any mercy, "So, what are you three up to this time?"

“I already said no… Bah!” Estella gave a smile that looked more like a grimace, trying to convince Liu Bai.

Neither Heita nor Ruan Mei seemed inclined to defend themselves; they rested their arms on the table, bending over as if trying to suppress something.

Bending over?

Liu Bai lowered his gaze slightly, a mischievous smile appearing on his face.

Could it be that they're sitting on the chair now...? Liu Bai, along with Mebius and Emerald, slowly approached the three of them.

"Gu..."

Estella let out a shy, unwilling voice.

"You guys... you've stuffed some shady little toys down there, haven't you?"

Liu Bai put his hand on Aisda's shoulder.

Estella's body visibly trembled.

"Ah...yes, yes, yes! You noticed that, Boss."

"...?"

Wait a minute, isn't this reaction still strange?

"Ruan Mei?"

Liu Bai then nudged Ruan Mei.

Like Está, Ruan Mei trembled, but she clenched her teeth and remained silent.

"Black Tower?"

Liu Bai touched the black tower again.

Hei Ta swayed slightly to avoid Liu Bai's hand, but he was also gritting his teeth.

"...What's wrong with this?"

Liu Bai was a little confused, wondering what kind of trouble these three were up to.

If there hadn't been no new favorability indicator, Liu Bai would have thought that the favorability of these three people had returned to normal.

"Jade, do you have any clues?"

"Please don't ask such an awkward question."

Emerald rested her chin on her hand, sighed with a look of doubt, "However... it doesn't seem to be some kind of toy."

"Woo..."

Estella, who had helped Liu Bai eliminate a wrong option, wavered for a moment, and then bent over even deeper.

"Hey, hey, hey, is nobody willing to tell the truth?"

Liu Bai picked up the black doll next to him and sat down in its place.

At the same time, Black Tower's face turned even paler.

"willow……"

Black Tower was about to open its mouth, but then seemed to remember something and tightly closed its mouth.

"Hmm? Should we be honest?"

Liu Bai pinched the doll's face and turned to look at the Black Tower.

However, Black Tower had already turned its head away and was no longer paying attention to Liu Bai.

(Gulp...this guy...)

"Let's check the security footage."

Möbius suddenly suggested, "The lab has surveillance cameras; I'll go check the previous footage."

The moment Mebius spoke, all three of them glared at him fiercely.

It gives off a vibe that says, "If you dare to do it, we'll go all out against you."

However... in terms of sheer presence, Mebius might only be able to match up against Estádio.

But this person is anything but daring.

Threat?

If I don't read it, wouldn't I be being threatened for nothing?

-

Rewind to shortly after everyone in the lab had left work.

"You two are plotting against me, aren't you?"

Estella and Ruan Mei were packing their things to leave when the doll Black Tower called them back.

Moreover, the cards are revealed from the start.

The doll Black Tower slowly poured himself a glass of water, drank it all in one gulp, and then sat down.

Dolls don't need to drink water, but... sometimes drinking water isn't for quenching thirst.

"what are you talking about."

Ruan Mei continued packing without turning her head.

"Yes, what are you saying, Ms. Black Tower?"

Estelle nodded in agreement, looking slightly guilty.

"You really think I was completely unaware?"

Black Tower revealed a slightly provocative smile, "I won't say anything about Está, but what, Ruan Mei, you dare to do it but not admit it?"

"So what?"

Having said that, Ruan Mei calmly turned around and faced the Black Tower directly.

(Wait a minute? Ms. Ruan Mei did it too?)

When Estádio heard Ruan Mei admit it, she was stunned.

Was it not just me who drugged Black Tower yesterday?

"Tsk, of course I want to ask why you drugged me."

Hei Ta glanced at Ruan Mei. "I don't think I've done anything to offend you lately, have I?"

Previously, there was a collaborative project called "Simulated Universe" in the universe, but here, the two of them are doing their own thing. What kind of thought process is it to drug her?

...Although Black Tower always felt that he could guess a little bit.

Ruan Mei was silent.

Although she didn't care about other people's gossip, Black Tower obviously couldn't be considered "other people".

Not to mention...

There's absolutely no way to tell Estella that you want to get Heta into bed with you before she does.

"It's already quite amusing that the mighty Black Tower has made a fool of itself, isn't it?"

Ruan Mei responded calmly.

"It's unbelievable that someone who's thrown away countless invitations of mine is still interested in this kind of thing."

"Those are two different things."

Nguyen Mai did not react to the re-bringing of the Black Tower incident.

She really didn't care about the invitations from Black Tower before, so she read them all but didn't reply and threw them all in the trash.

Once Black Tower actually creates an interesting simulated universe, then... well, she just wants to participate, and still doesn't really want to meet Black Tower.

This means that "it is worth spending time on, but not worth being forced into socializing."

Heita knew very well that Ruan Mei was someone who didn't like to talk to anyone from the beginning, and that she was only willing to attend the tea party because she had "threatened" her.

This kind of person wants to see her make a fool of herself?

You're kidding me.

"Ahem, okay, okay."

Feeling a little guilty, Estelle quickly stepped in to smooth things over, "There's no need for you two to make things so unpleasant. Have some water and calm down."

"So, it's related to Liu Bai?"

Hei Ta didn't wait for Ruan Mei to admit it and directly stated his initial guess.

Ruan Mei raised her eyebrows slightly, neither denying nor admitting it.

He was left to put on a one-man show, appearing to refuse to socialize.

And Black Tower certainly didn't seem to have anything to say.

After all, given Ruan Mei's attitude of refusing to communicate, unless force is used, continuing to talk to her would be like casting pearls before swine.

The two of them remained silent facing each other.

One person tries to coerce the truth out of the other, while the other acts as if they don't see the truth.

The standoff lasted for half an hour, and Estella, caught in the middle, found it extremely difficult to endure.

"You two, please don't make things so tense."

Estelle brought the water up—she always had a feeling that if this atmosphere continued, the flames of war would reach her.

"Ms. Ruan Mei, perhaps... you could at least apologize to Ms. Heita?"

"..."

Ruan Mei glanced at Aista.

Continuing to refuse communication—not to mention there's nothing to talk about with Estella, a competitor.

"Cough cough, then let's just drink water."

Estádio was defeated by Nguyen Mai's attitude.

It has a "what's done is done, let's eat first" attitude.

Estella took a sip of water first.

"...Well, what's wrong?"

Now, feeling guilty, Estella is extremely sensitive to the Black Tower's gaze.

Judging from the current situation, it is Ruan Mei who has taken on the majority of the firepower for her.

If the Black Tower were to unleash its full firepower on her, she might not be able to withstand it.
