Chapter 299 Oupemuel Crystal
Grid Academy, Sibilla Dormitory Apartment.
The neatly arranged apartments stand on the ground, like tightly arranged memory cards inserted vertically on the motherboard, and students and staff shuttle in and out of them. Sometimes they take the elevator directly up and down, some rely on the manipulation of magnetic fields and gravity to fly between high-rise buildings, and others call small aerial vehicles to skillfully go back and forth to various locations in the academy.
"Don't you want to see Tilan? I remember you like her very much."
In the room, a girl with purple vine hair was lying on the sofa playing a game console, and on the opposite projection screen, a little man was jumping. Compared with the various games with extremely high degree of simulation today, this cartoon-style game can be said to be retro.
After hearing the words on the side, the girl still did not stop operating, and continued to press the handle in her hand, staring at the little man who kept moving and fighting on the screen.
"This is the second time you have said this to me today, old lady Emeranda~" She dragged the tone of the last few words for a particularly long time.
"Miaoer, I've told you several times, if you call me that again, I'll confiscate your right to play games." A mature woman walked out of the kitchen, holding a wet fruit cutter in her hand, with a fierce look on her face.
"Hehe, you can't confiscate it. If you abuse me, I'll complain to Uncle Kemera and say you bullied me."
"I know very well that although the Tribunal pays well, the work is very busy. Letting you take care of me is like a holiday. You can't bear to leave me." The girl playing games on the sofa skillfully grasped the handle of this mature big sister.
"You--" Knowing that most of her methods could not scare the rebellious girl in front of her, Emeranda changed her expression again and began to be gentle and gentle. She didn't look fierce at all. It should be said that she is worthy of being a federal search officer. She is so skilled in changing her face.
"I'm concerned about you. Little Tilan is almost the same age as you. She's so cute and she's a singer. If you get to know her well, it will be good for you in the future."
"I admit that I like Heshia's songs very much, but if I want to meet her, forget it." Mu'er watched the character on the screen defeat the opponent and jump to a square grid with a castle background. Soon, fireworks appeared and the familiar victory settlement music sounded.
"Why, are you shy? Why can't I feel it?" Emerada brought out the cut fresh watermelon and placed it on the coffee table, then sat next to Mu'er.
"How could I be shy?" Throwing the handle aside, the barefoot girl stood on the sofa with her hands on her waist and looked down at the adults in front of her and spoke.
"I, Oupe Mu'er, although I haven't reached adulthood yet, I'm already a genius girl who defeated and killed the gang boss. People like me who have experienced life and death, are outstanding, beautiful, and gifted, will not have the emotion of shyness." She patted her small chest and announced proudly.
"Ahem, let me correct you. The 'Silver Roar' you killed was just a high-ranking gang member, not a boss. Besides, you said that you had experienced life and death. Little Tilan has struggled from the brink of death two or three times, and her talent is no worse than yours." Emeranda decided to suppress the arrogance of the girl in front of her.
"You are the only one who talks too much." Muer raised her foot and prepared to step on Emeranda, but she didn't want to be grabbed by the investigator who was on vacation at home, and then casually pulled, and lost her balance and fell on the sofa.
"It hurts, it hurts, Emerada, you hurt me." Muer climbed up from the sofa with a hunched back, whimpering, and then pulled her legs back and hugged her in her arms. Emeranda
had long been accustomed to the girl's coquettish and pitiful behavior. She picked up the cut watermelon on the coffee table and handed it to Muer.
"Do you want to eat it?"
Muer asked, smelling the watermelon aroma coming from the tip of her nose. She opened her mouth and took a small bite, then reached out to take the watermelon and knelt on the sofa to eat it.
Seeing her chewing watermelon like a groundhog, Emeranda couldn't help shaking her head.
"Although you are also a beauty, it would be better if you had better posture and temperament. I'm thinking about asking a strict elder to teach you etiquette in the future."
"Bah, I don't want to learn that kind of cumbersome and restrained etiquette. I'm so beautiful and cute, only you can't notice it. If it were a man, everyone would love him. The natural state is the most lovable. You old woman don't understand it at all." She spit out watermelon seeds and stick out her tongue.
Looking at her like this, Emeranda wanted to go up and pull out her tongue and teach her a lesson, but this idea was just a thought, after all, she couldn't really abuse her.
"Okay, let's get back to the topic."
"Mu'er, why don't you dare to see Tilan? I mentioned you when I was chatting with her before." Emeranda said seriously.
Hearing such words, Mu'er's ears seemed to stand up, and he became alert immediately.
"How did you say that to Tilan?"
"Ah, this, I said I was taking care of a child of Tilan's age in the South District, and said we could get to know each other when we were free." Emeranda recalled the scene at that time. Although it was an invitation, due to professional habit, she did not reveal Mu'er's existence at the beginning, but just mentioned a vague person.
"Is that really all? You didn't tell Tilan about my specialness, did you?" Mu'er threw the watermelon rind into the trash can, then approached Emeranda, staring at her, with her fangs slightly exposed, and her posture looked like a girl transformed from a cat.
"No, I still have the vigilance that a profession should have. I was just in a momentary mood at the time, and didn't say more, just this one sentence." Emeranda put her hand behind Mu'er's back, stroking her thin vine-colored hair, and comforting the slightly nervous girl.
"What's wrong, so you are not shy, but afraid of Tilan?" Emeranda blinked.
Sitting back on the sofa, Muir picked up another piece of watermelon, but this time she didn't bite it directly, but used her fingers to peel off the seeds one
by one. "Scared, I think." She said slowly.
"Emeranda knows my ability, I can change the thinking process of AI, gain authority, just like commanding subordinates, commanding them." Muir talked about the special talent that was discovered a year ago.
"Yes, it's quite a terrifying and special talent, so much so that the Federal Court has to pay attention to you." Emeranda thought to herself, it is precisely because you have such a talent that such an excellent staff member as her did not shine in the court, but was specially sent to take care of you and stabilize your mind and emotions.
"Heshia Tilan is very special. I don't know how to explain this to you, Emeranda, but I have seen her fighting in the secret files of the Inquisition, and how she almost died in the tunnel that night."
"Although I am very powerful on the Internet and have almost no weaknesses, it is different in reality, especially for Tilan."
"She is a singer. She can almost instantly perceive my emotions and find out something is wrong, because ordinary people would not be so afraid of her."
"Oh, then it stands to reason that singers have similar abilities to perceive emotions, but you don't seem to be very afraid of Purinkoko. I've been to her concert before."
"Purinkoko is okay. She's actually very easy to understand." Muer picked up the seeded watermelon and ate it slowly.
"Besides, Pulin Koko's talents and abilities are not that excessive. If I want to leave or escape, there is always a way."
"But Tilan is different, especially after I watched the video of her performance in the Cuiyue Star Region that night, I am more certain of this."
"If she really wants to kill me, I can't escape. You know, Emeranda, Tilan's talent is not just in the singing girl area. If she really wants to, she can probably freeze my mind in an instant, but she has never shown this ability."
"Before, if I said it, it might surprise and surprise you, and then you would take special actions, but now Tilan is already a federally certified singing girl, and you know that it won't change anything now."
"You know, Emeranda, it's like a very powerful animal with almost no rivals. It can live very happily and comfortably in its own territory, and if you let it approach another more powerful creature, it will instinctively fear, even though the other powerful creature may be well-intentioned, it dare not take the risk."
"Well, although I like Tilan's songs very much, I won't meet her~" Mu'er was lying on the sofa eating watermelon, with her legs raised behind her and shaking constantly.
"This child..."
Looking at Mu'er who was like a kitten hiding in a nest, Emeranda couldn't help but shake her head, but then she thought of the black-haired girl who was the same age as Mu'er.
Is Heshia Tilan really as scary as Ope Mu'er said? She thought about it carefully, but didn't want to believe it, because she really got along with this girl. The sincerity and intimacy radiated from the other party from the inside out really didn't make her feel cruel and cold. This was also her intuition as an experienced investigator.
Or maybe, this is the manifestation of the singer's talent, which makes people around her like her unconsciously, and gradually ignore her possible strong side.
