Chapter 192

Upon hearing this, Pardofelis suddenly became interested and quickly activated her inner power, already looking forward to the day when she would master the technique.

Her gaze swept over the dense text line by line. A few seconds later, the sheer volume of words gave Pardo a headache, and she slammed the book shut.

If I don't understand it, I'll just leave it in the store and wait for another person who is meant to find it.

She had originally planned to secretly follow others after mastering the skill, looking for opportunities to purchase goods, but that plan was no longer viable. Pardofelis sighed and then turned her gaze to the screen.

[In the scene, Raiden Mei and Vill-V arrive at the balcony of a building. A cool breeze blows through the golden leaves, bringing a touch of coolness.]

"Who do you plan to investigate next? Since the goal is to clear your name, my suggestion is to start with the person least suspicious," Vill-V asked.

"Just to be on the safe side, let's go back to the amusement Elysian Realm and find that fairy manager. She can provide some clues about the damaged typewriter."

Raiden Mei was about to turn around when she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

"Wait, here..."

"What's wrong?"

Mei didn't answer, but looked around warily, and sighed after a long while.

"It's nothing, it was probably just my imagination. I just suddenly realized that I might have missed an important clue in the spot where the monster disappeared."

"An important clue? Oh, I see. Some clues do need someone to give them a push behind the scenes."

The two women turned and left. Behind them, a small figure emerged from behind the wall and landed lightly on the ground.

"Oh dear, why did they go back again? I guess I'll just have to follow them again..."

Before Pardofelis could finish speaking, a sharp, cold glint was already pressed against her neck.

"Oops!!!"

"Stalking others isn't a good habit... Pardo, is that you?"

Raiden Mei was stunned for a second. She thought she could catch a big fish, but she didn't expect to catch Pardofelis instead.

"Sister Mei, calm down, calm down, don't point a knife at me!"

Pardofelis raised his hands, then slowly pushed the blade away with two fingers, chuckling smirk.

"You've been following us from the very beginning, haven't you? Why have you been doing that?" Mei asked.

"I've come to seek refuge with you. I've already checked all the paths as Sister Eden instructed, but I haven't found anything. I'm extremely frustrated."

Pardofelis sighed, and even his head and ears went limp.

"I heard that Sister Mei and Sister Vill-V are working together to investigate the truth, so I thought I'd join you in the investigation."

"I haven't heard of that. 'Investigating together' means secretly following behind someone." Raiden Mei crossed her arms.

"I see... It's mainly because I was worried about being rejected by you. After all, Sister Mei knows all too well how weak I am."

A confident and assertive answer.

But this also proved the truth of Pardo's words, causing Raiden Mei and Vill-V to lower their guard.

Pardofelis: "I knew it! I wasn't secretly following them; I was just reporting back after completing Sister Eden's mission."

Raiden Mei: "If you're going to finish this, shouldn't you be asking Eden?"

Pardofelis: "Um, didn't Sister Eden go to the Deep to find Sister Nia? How could I dare go to that place?"

Elysia: "As expected of Pardo, you searched all the paths in the Elysian Realm so quickly. Well done! Here's a candy for you."

Pardofelis: "Hehe, not at all, it's mainly about practice makes perfect."

Pardo stared intently at the candy in Elysia's hand, raised her hands to her chest, and made a cat-like gesture.

She recognized it; the Rainbow Lollipop that Sister Elysia was about to feed her was the same one that Sister Nia had used to bribe Griseo!

Chapter 311 Pardo's Lofty Ambition

Elysia just asked Apponia for some Rainbow Lollipop. Although it's not nice to steal Griseo's snacks, she loves Apponia so much.

Elysia pinched the candy between her fingers and flicked it, sending it flying in a perfect arc through the sky.

Then Pardofelis leaped up and bit the candy with perfect accuracy.

Pardofelis: "It's so sweet, but not cloying at all. The taste is amazing!"

The Rainbow Lollipop does indeed have a unique flavor, which explains why Griseo likes it, and now even Pardo is a bit addicted to it.

Elysia: "Really? It tastes really good, but unfortunately the quantity is limited, and I don't have many here either."

It's a little disappointing.

Although Apponia still has plenty of stock, it won't be so easy to snatch Griseo's snacks from her.

Even Elysia had to be very persistent to get a little bit out of Apponia.

Apponia: "The value of something is only highlighted by its rarity, don't you think, Elysia?"

Elysia: "I think if I had a few more, I could share some with everyone."

Cosmo: "... Not good."

Just two words left everyone somewhat puzzled, yet they seemed to understand half of what was being said.

Pardofelis: "Ahem, let me translate. What Amo means is... Elysia, it's not right to steal Griseo's snacks."

Griseo: "It's alright. As for the candy, we should share it with everyone."

Kiana: "You're right. If we're going to share, then do I get a share of those Rainbow Lollipop?"

Theresa: "Kiana, you even take Griseo's lollipop!"

The academy headmaster gave Kiana's stomach a disapproving look.

With your stomach, which is bigger than any competitive eater's, and you're even more like Vishnu than her, if you were to come, Apponia's lollipops wouldn't even be enough for one meal.

Stealing Griseo's snacks? Be careful, Apponia will impose Precepts on you that you can't be frivolous!

In the scene, Pardofelis scratched her head, slightly embarrassed by her stalking behavior, but that wasn't the important thing right now.

She's here to help find the real culprit!

"Even if I can't help in the battle, I'm sure I can be useful in other ways. I've thought it through carefully!"

Pardofelis looked directly into Raiden Mei's eyes.

"Although I hate seeing everyone suspicious of each other, just waiting around isn't in my nature. It's better to do something and then regret it than to regret doing nothing."

"What are we going to do now? Find that fairy who looks a lot like Sister Elysia, right?"

The strong and reliable feeling, and the fact that they had even found out their next plan, made Pardo Raiden Mei pause for a moment.

However, after a few seconds of silence, she suddenly realized something.

"Pardo, you were secretly following us just because you were afraid of being rejected?"

"Of course, how could I possibly be thinking about restocking? Even if I were, it would just be a thought; I absolutely haven't done anything!"

Pardofelis quickly waved his hand.

With both Sister Elysia and Sister Vill-V together, she can't do anything even if she wants to!

"Wait, Sister Mei, you're not doubting me, are you?"

Pardofelis stared wide-eyed and pointed to her nose.

Who would have thought that she would one day be suspected of killing Boss Kevin and Sister Elysia?

"Sister Mei, you've gone too far with that joke. Even if I had ten lives, I wouldn't dare do anything to Boss Kevin."

Pardofelis explained.

"If I really had that ability, I'd definitely get my hands on Sister Eden's Golden Courtyard first, then have Boss Kevin and Brother Jie deliver goods to me. Oh, right, having Sister Elysia and Hua help me watch the shop wouldn't be bad either..."

Unconsciously, Pardo's tone became somewhat excited, as if she were imagining this beautiful and bright future.

"I can vouch for her; this is exactly the kind of thing Little Pardo would do."

"Vill-V said from the side."

"Sister Vill-V understands me best. What good does it do me to make such a mess of the Elysian Realm like this?"

"Putting aside motives, you certainly don't have the ability to be the mastermind behind it all." Raiden Mei nodded.

"Right? I'm completely innocent!"

In that case, it wouldn't be unreasonable to include Pardofelis in the investigation team.

Vill-V and Raiden Mei exchanged a glance, then took Pardofelis with them to the amusement Elysian Realm to look for clues they had overlooked.

The video ends here.

Kiana: "Pardo, as expected of you."

You managed to take down Kevin, and this is all the ambition you have? Can't you have even a little bit of backbone?

Pardofelis: "Why did you blurt out my innermost thoughts? Sister Eden's Golden Courtyard, hehehe... cough cough, of course, I have no intention of rebelling, I'm just thinking about it."

Vill-V: "Golden Courtyard? Little Pardo, you really have wild ideas."

Pardofelis: "Isn't this just wishful thinking? If you don't even have dreams, what's the difference between you and a salted fish?"

Elysia: "Chakravartin and Kevin will deliver the goods, Hua and I will watch the store, Pardo, what's your job?"

No matter how you look at it, there aren't any important positions left.

Pardo, it's your own shop, do you still want to be a hands-off manager?

Pardofelis: "Me? Of course, I'll continue to be in charge of purchasing goods, and of course, I'll lie in the sun and bask in its warmth."

Kiana: "As expected of you, Pardo."

You've already got your hands on the Golden Courtyard, and Kevin Chakravartin is now in charge of odd jobs and delivering goods, yet your ambition is still to source more goods.

Pardofelis: "Hehe, after all, I don't have any special dreams, I just want a few things. Of course, if business can also boom, that would be even better."

With Sister Elysia and Hua minding the shop, and Brother Jie and Boss Kevin delivering goods, her shop is sure to be a huge success, with business booming!

Raiden Mei: "Pardo, you could actually aim higher, like having Vill-V's Hundred Flavors personality cook for you or something."

Pardofelis: "Oh, oh, oh! Sister Mei, you really are a genius, how come I didn't think of that?"

Imagine having Hundred Flavors as her personal Chef, enjoying heavenly meals every day – such a life sounds absolutely wonderful!

"It seems Little Pardo Vill-V tempted. The allure of Hundred Flavors is truly exaggerated."

Raven: "Pardo, you can also have Sakura use her Frozen Naraka to cut a watermelon for you. Believe me, lying under the sun, eating a watermelon that's been frozen solid in an instant, is truly a perfect match."

Chapter 312 The Flame-Chasers Lure

On the villa island, Raven, holding a slice of watermelon and wearing sunglasses, watched the children play Raven and shared her heartfelt feelings.

Theresa: "And, and, I just thought of something, you could let..."

Pardofelis: "Oh dear, stop talking, or I'll really fall for it."

Most importantly, Pardofelis knew she was incapable of fulfilling these extravagant desires.

That beautiful illusion, seemingly so close yet unattainable, is truly unbearable.

[Q&A begins.]

[Raiden Mei, Pardofelis, and Vill-V are searching for information in the Elysian Realm but are at a loss. At a crucial moment, Vill-V pulls out her secret weapon. What is the name of this secret weapon?]

[A: Consciousness Collector.]

[B: Footprint Tracker.]

[C: Flame-Chasers Lure.]

[D: Armed with Kevin - Model 1302.]

Pardofelis: "Wow, Sister Vill-V, you actually have a secret weapon?"

Raiden Mei: "If you had something like that, you should have taken it out sooner."

Mei felt like she'd been tricked by Vill-V. That girl had all sorts of strange gadgets, but when it came to finding the culprit, she seemed rather uninterested.

You could even say they treated the process as a performance.
