The next day.

Valerie got up very early in the morning.

While Xiao He and Patika were still fast asleep, she quietly closed the door, carrying a stack of documents.

It was barely dawn, and there was still a long time before the meeting.

But she still chose to set off at this time.

Firstly, I was afraid of getting lost again, and secondly, I wanted to familiarize myself with the environment beforehand so I wouldn't be too nervous on the day.

Valerie followed the map into a large courtyard, muttering to herself as she walked, as if reciting a text. It was easy to see how much preparation she had done the day before.

"Hey, where are your eyes?"

A emotionless voice sounded from behind.

Valerie froze, turning around with a trembling expression.

Sure enough, Lucadi seemed to have just stepped out of a door and was leaning against it, staring at him expressionlessly…

"Good morning, Commander!" Valerie reacted quickly and straightened her posture to greet him.

"Did you even get the time wrong?" Lucadi asked, frowning.

"No! I was afraid I wouldn't get lost, so I came looking for directions beforehand!"

Valerie made no attempt to hide anything, standing tall and speaking with a strong voice as she "reported the situation."

“Good, very self-aware.” Lucadi nodded, then gestured for her to come in.

Valerie breathed a sigh of relief, and as soon as she stepped in behind him, she was instantly stunned by the sheer size of the place.

Let's leave aside how high-end and sophisticated the "meeting room" is.

The key point is the seating around here... were people invited to watch a circus performance?!

Valerie's soul immediately wept bitterly.
