Curiosity Is Often the Beginning of Falling / Robin: I Came Here Just to Find You~

After all, the Genius Society has so many members; it's impossible that none of them have ever been interested in Memoria.

Lin Shuang believes that it's because the Black Swan discovered that it's difficult to manipulate its Remembrance and has no way to eliminate this ability non-violently.

Therefore, the explanation is that it was changed temporarily.

After all, they're an organization that manipulates Remembrance; their apparent friendliness is likely just a facade.

The parts you dislike might just be subject to a major Remembrance erasure.

Volume 1: Chapter 200 Curiosity is often the beginning of downfall

Black Swan noticed Lin Shuang's distrustful expression.

He didn't intend to make Lin Shuang lower her guard immediately.

She nodded slightly and then paused the conversation.

"This is a Light Cone I created in the Asdana Galaxy, but the owner of the Remembrance hid it very well, and the image on the Light Cone is quite blurry."

As she spoke, the Black Swan took out a Light Cone. Only a silhouette of a person could be vaguely seen on the screen, and nothing else.

"I don't know who the person in the picture is, but I know this person might be important. Do you want to give it a try?"

The Light Cone was handed to me by the Black Swan.

After thinking about it, Lin Shuang decided to accept the Light Cone.

"I'll give it a try. How can I contact you afterward?"

"Hehe~ Don't worry, little sister, fate will guide us to meet again."

Seeing that Lin Shuang had accepted the broken Light Cone, the Black Swan didn't intend to stay any longer and turned to leave towards the end of the corridor.

"When we meet again in Penacony, let's dance together, little sister."

Lin Shuang watched as the Black Swan's silhouette pierced through the wall and disappeared without a trace.

Then, her gaze fell upon the new message from the system.

When the Black Swan nodded, the system seemed to interpret it as an action of agreeing to establish a relationship.

Thus, the information belonging to the Black Swan appeared before Lin Shuang:

[Target: Black Swan]

[Affection: 68 (Curious)]

[Relationship: Friends]

['Curiosity is often the beginning of falling in love, young lady!']

['A person who can always see through Memokeeper suddenly encounters someone they can't see through—what a classic plot twist! You should be secretly thrilled.']

[Reward: One green card draw]

A faint Light Cone, and a lottery draw.

Let's see if we can win something related to Remembrance through the lottery.

Draw a card!

The familiar green light shone.

I didn't get anything good this time either.

Lin Shuang sighed, then looked at the newly appeared skill:

[Remembrance Takes Shape]

[' Remembrance is a deep sea; to ordinary people, it exists but is untouchable. Yet it also has form.']

['See it, touch it, and then try to scoop it up with both hands. Like trying to catch the moon's reflection in the water.']

The skill description was somewhat abstract, but Lin Shuang understood its capabilities after learning the skill.

Simply put, Lin Shuang can directly observe the fragmented Remembrance within the Memoria.

But it can only be observed.

It's like trying to scoop the moon out of the water with your bare hands; you can neither catch the moon nor hold onto the water.

"Um..."

To say this skill isn't particularly impressive is an understatement; the ability to observe Remembrance within the Memoria is already quite extraordinary.

However, to say that this skill is useful is an exaggeration, as the Remembrance within the Memoria are discontinuous and fragmented.

Unlike Memory Bubble or Light Cone, these are processed Remembrance, complete and continuous.

It's not easy to find anything truly useful.

But something is better than nothing. Lin Shuang then headed to Penacony, wondering how to begin her investigation.

Now we have a new direction.

Lin Shuang carefully put away the Light Cone that the Black Swan had given her, planning to go back later to analyze it.

I just don't know who I'll see.

Back in the rest cabin, I saw Firefly that seemed to be reading a book.

"Lin Shuang? Are you feeling better?"

Upon seeing Lin Shuang return, Firefly put down his book, quickly got up, and came to Lin Shuang, scrutinizing her from head to toe with concern.

Lin Shuang smiled and nodded:

"You'll be fine after a rest. Don't worry."

Judging from the Firefly's reaction, Lin Shuang knew that she probably hadn't noticed the Black Swan's appearance.

"Okay, please sit down first. I'm sorry, it was my carelessness."

After pulling Lin Shuang down to sit, the Firefly sincerely apologized.

However, Lin Shuang waved her hand and did not accept:

"It's a matter of individual constitution, it has nothing to do with you. Compared to this, aren't you almost at the Penacony?"

"Yes, we'll be there soon, and then... my Brother will be waiting for me at Starport. But don't worry, I'll be with you."

The Firefly explained the situation, but Lin Shuang didn't care about that. What she was more curious about was where he found the time to come in person on Sunday.

"... Isn't your brother the Head of the Family? The Charmony Festival is just around the corner, how could he have time to come all the way to Starport to pick you up?"

"Well, as soon as he heard that I wasn't bringing any entourage this time, he insisted on coming to pick me up at the airport..."

The Firefly wasn't entirely unable to understand her Brother's concern for her.

As a big star, Firefly is also quite popular at Penacony.

She came back this time without any entourage; relying solely on casual clothes might not be reliable.

If her identity is exposed, who will bring her back safely?

It's normal to worry about her on Sunday.

But the Firefly felt that sending a few members of the Hound Family to help was enough; there was no need for him to come in person.

This back-and-forth trip, including preparation time, must have wasted at least one or two System Hour.

Is it really okay to have so much work piling up?

"..."

Lin Shuang raised an eyebrow subtly. Could Sunday really be a suspect?

It doesn't seem like it anymore now.

Soon, the Spaceship arrived at Penacony's docking Starport.

Following the Firefly off the Spaceship, we saw what the Starport looked like as soon as we stepped outside.

Then I saw Sunday, who was already waiting outside, dressed smartly.

"Firefly, welcome back."

Upon seeing the Firefly disembark from the Spaceship, Sunday took the initiative to greet it.

"Brother, it's been a long time."

The Firefly nodded slightly in greeting, then took Lin Shuang's hand and introduced them:

"This is Lin Shuang, whom I mentioned earlier. He is the current Head of the Family of the Oak Family, Sunday."

"Nice to meet you, Ms. Lin Shuang. Thank you so much for your help to the Firefly in Xianzhou Luofu."

On Sunday, he politely bowed slightly to greet Lin Shuang, and neither his eyes nor his attitude made Lin Shuang feel any hostility.

Of course, vigilance is still necessary.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Sunday. I'm friends with Firefly, so no need for formalities."

After exchanging greetings, on Sunday they looked at the Firefly and said:

"This isn't the place to talk. Let me take you to a quiet room to fall asleep."

The Firefly turned to look at Lin Shuang, asking her for her opinion with its eyes.

Lin Shuang nodded slightly, indicating that she had no objection.

So, Lin Shuang was taken to the Reverie on Sunday.

They were immediately placed in the best VIP room, right next to the Firefly's room.

"... Lin Shuang, do you understand the precautions for your first time entering a dream?"

Before entering the dream, the Firefly took the initiative to introduce them, and the two stayed together in Lin Shuang's room.

"Yes, I remember."

Volume 1: Chapter 201 The Firefly: I Came Here Specifically to Find You~

Do you want to fall asleep now, or rest for a while?

The Firefly sat on the luxurious sofa in the room, showing no sign of wanting to get up.

Lin Shuang wasn't in a hurry; she was just curious.

Will you stay here and watch over me as I drift off to sleep?

"Since it's my first time entering a dream, I thought I'd stay here for a while and chat a bit."

The Firefly smiled and gestured to Lin Shuang, while savoring the tea and Pastries laid out in the room.

He seemed to be really enjoying himself.

"Didn't my Brother tell us that the Reverie in the Dreamscape is under renovation? Be careful when you enter the dream."

"Yes, I know."

Lin Shuang had sensed this before; aside from their first meeting, the Firefly.

As they got to know each other Firefly seemed to really enjoy her interactions with Lin Shuang.

Well, how should I put it?

Didn't I often teach Lin Shuang to sing in the evenings?

Because the Firefly always showed up on time, Lin Shuang initially thought that the Firefly she was worthy of being befriended.

But after doing it many times...

Lin Shuang gradually realized that when the robin was with her, Firefly was very well-mannered, but he didn't show any 'reverence'.

It's more like the Firefly simply wants someone to play with her.

Once, while the Firefly was on a video call, he received a work call and even performed a daring face-changing act.
