“Of course not, what are you thinking?” Ms.
Herta was sometimes curious about how a person’s train of thought could be so strange.
Who was the last person with such a peculiar train of thought…
Oh right, a Stelle.
That brat’s train of thought was also bizarre to the point of being incomprehensible, with every sentence being unexpected.
Could it be…
Is this guy an undercover agent sent by the Trailblazer?
Forget it, Himeko shouldn’t be raising a second idiot brat after already having one.
“Alright, enough of that, answer my question.
Can I research you?” Bayle blinked and asked very sincerely: “Can I refuse?” Ms.
Herta crossed her arms and looked at Bayle with displeasure.
“I’m not a terrorist organization like the Stellaron Hunters, so of course I will respect your wishes.
However, I advise you to think it through.” “If you aren’t willing, then get lost from the Herta Space Station immediately.
This place isn’t a charity.” Oh well, it seems there’s no other choice.
[It is your honor to become a test subject for Ms.
Herta.
You should kneel down right now, hug Ms.
Herta’s legs, and cry your eyes out in gratitude for Ms.
Herta’s great kindness.] […Damn, aren’t you disgusting?
I’m trying to eat here!] [What does your eating have to do with me?
If it really doesn’t work out, I can mail you two bags of red soil to eat.
It’s freshly dug up red soil; even Earth Beasts say it’s good after eating it.] [Fine.] [Stop, stop, stop, babe.
This persona of yours is boring.
Besides being disliked, can you get any other feedback?
In my opinion, Bayle, isn’t Ms.
Herta arrogant?
You should act even more arrogant than her!] Bayle: “…?” [She is such a proud person, how could she allow someone to be more dazzling than her?
Defeat her in her own field and make her submit to you!] Bayle forced a smile.
That’s easy for you to say…
The question is, on what grounds could he possibly defeat this member of the Genius Society who reigns supreme across the universe in her own field???
[Act!] [If you act well, it will be good for both you and me.
I don’t think you’ll refuse my request…
right?] In short, after Ms.
Herta heard that Bayle agreed to cooperate with the experiment, she didn’t care what he wanted to do anymore.
“You can go anywhere on the Herta Space Station, just don’t disturb me.
Also, find some time to get a physical exam.” Bayle was thus kicked out of the laboratory in a daze.
Standing at the laboratory entrance, he pressed his temples, suddenly not knowing what expression to make.
He thought for a long time and felt that the script shouldn’t have developed like this.
He was completely led by the nose by Ms.
Herta…
He hadn’t said a single piece of useful information, nor had he accomplished a single useful task.
If he really had to say something…
That was just successfully meeting the real Ms.
Herta, and staying at the Herta Space Station, achieving the small goal of getting closer.
As for how long Ms.
Herta’s interest would last…
who could say for sure?
“Hello, can we talk?” Bayle looked up and saw a pink-haired girl resting her chin on her hand, looking at him curiously.
“…Asta?
What do you want with me?” Asta didn’t expect this strange guest to actually know her, and immediately felt he was easier to talk to.
“Huh?
You actually know me?
That couldn’t be better!
Can we talk?” Bayle glanced at the closed laboratory, felt that Ms.
Herta wouldn’t come out for a while, and nodded.
“Sure, I’m Bayle.
What’s the matter?” Asta led Bayle to a place on the Herta Space Station that was more suitable for sitting and chatting.
“Ah…
actually, it’s nothing major.
It’s just…
I want to know!
How exactly did you convince Ms.
Herta to come back?
As the lead researcher of the Herta Space Station, I’m really curious!” Bayle was stunned for a moment.
“Does Ms.
Herta rarely come back usually?” Asta nodded helplessly.
“Rarely?
It’s more than that…
She barely cares about this place at all.
She only occasionally remembers it and uses her little Ms.
Herta puppets to retrieve some things…” “Before, I sent hundreds of emails to Ms.
Herta, and they all sank like stones.
I didn’t expect her to suddenly come back this time!” Even in this situation, Asta was surprisingly both surprised and happy, as if Ms.
Herta’s willingness to return was already something very worth celebrating.
Looking at Asta’s expectant eyes, Bayle couldn’t help but step back, “Ahem…
Asta, I understand your excitement, but please don’t get so close.
I’m a bit…
uncomfortable…” Asta only then noticed that she had leaned in a few steps because of her excitement, and scratched her head in embarrassment.
“Oh my, I’m sorry, I was too excited and didn’t pay attention.” However, after apologizing, she curiously asked again: “So!
Please, you must tell me!
How exactly did you call her back?” Bayle was a bit embarrassed.
If an unknown Emanator appeared in someone’s home, the owner would probably have to come see for themselves…
But he certainly couldn’t say that.
[I know, I know!
I know what to say!
Just say that Ruan Mei missed her and entrusted you with a message for Ms.
Herta, which is why Ms.
Herta came back!] [It’s Ruan Mei!!
I’ve said it ten thousand times!
It’s Ruan Mei!] [Bayle, just do as I say.
You tell her directly that you and Ms.
Herta have a very special relationship~ Ms.
Herta came back this time simply because you missed her.
Because you missed her, and with just one word from you, she came back.] Bayle: “…” Bayle was just about to ignore this barrage when he saw his generous clients start feeding him points.
[As long as you do as I say, there will be no shortage of points for you.
Hurry, hurry, hurry…
I am so curious about the reaction.] [No, do as I say!
Just say Ruan Mei missed her!
Not only is it interesting, but you can also annoy Ms.
Herta along the way!
I can’t even imagine how fun this will be.] [Tch, what’s interesting about that?
Mine is more interesting.
Do as I say, and I’ll offer 100 points.] [You have the nerve to say 100 points?
Say Ruan Mei, and I’ll offer 200!] [300!
Ms.
Herta!] […Fine, you win.
It’s just a little bit of fun, is it worth 300 points?
Tch, I’m out, I’ll let you have it!] Watching the barrages go back and forth, driving the price up, Bayle blinked.
Hey, he had an idea; this seemed like something he could do.
Although he was already lost by the end and didn’t know who had called out the final price.
But regardless of who it was…
He was going to pull this off!
Finally, the winning barrage sent its message unhurriedly.
[xxx, tipped 300 points.] [Deal or no deal?
Explain your relationship with Ms.
Herta to Asta.
This is a deposit; I’ll tip you another 200 after it’s done.
How about it?]
