Wanzhou Is Not That Kind of Person!

[Alert: An unidentified Bangboo has appeared ahead!]

[Model search: Failed. The target does not belong to any known model, including those officially registered in New Eridu.]

[Risk warning: A highly intelligent data entity has been detected within the target...]

[Recommendation: Master, please remain vigilant.]

As a pitch-black Bangboo darted out, Fairy's alarm sounded at the same time.

The unknown Bangboo's body was covered in damage. Its scratches, large and small, were clearly years old.

The unknown Bangboo came before the four of them and loudly protested about something, but its words were fragmented, with harsh electrical static crackling between them.

"Lady Wanzhou... confusion, data confusion... reorganizing..."

"Huh? Why is this little guy glitching out?"

Ye Shunguang stepped forward, bent down, and gently picked up the unidentified Bangboo. "It seems its language module has malfunctioned."

"Isn't that easy?"

Hearing that, Belle moved closer and lightly patted the Bangboo's head.

Back when she had worked at the video store on Sixth Street, whenever any of the appliances acted up, a couple of smacks would immediately set them straight. This trick had never failed her.

"Junior Sister, won't you break it doing that?"

Ignoring Ye Shunguang's warning, Belle raised her hand and put more force into it, giving the Bangboo's head another smack.

Sure enough, the inherited family craft did not disappoint.

"Data integration... successful!"

"Hehe, see? I fixed it!"

Belle proudly planted her hands on her hips.

"Hey, go easy on me!" The unknown Bangboo covered its head and glared angrily at Belle. "You people not only slander Lady Wanzhou, you're even bullying a malfunctioning Bangboo!"

"Hey, I'm the one who fixed you... Wait?"

Belle's hands froze in midair before she asked, "Wait, did you say Lady Wanzhou?"

"Who are you?"
