Miss Cyborg Wants to Find a "Heart" Too

"Come out."

As Sera finished speaking, two figures emerged from the hidden door.

Who are you two?

Pearl wore a polite smile, but the database had already compared their identities.

The cowboy-style man is the company's wanted criminal— the Galaxy Rangers Boothill. Oswald Schneider is his enemy, but since they share the same goal, they can befriend each other.

The detective in the form of a detective is Busitu, a detective from the Undying Detective Agency of Dual-Phase Paradise. His true identity is suspected to be La Mancha, the leader of the Galaxy Rangers and the Wolf with Broken Legs.

Although she recognized them, Pearl didn't reveal their identities. Instead, she waited for the company's wanted criminal and detective to introduce themselves.

"The Busitu, a Mere Detective."

Busitu stopped Boothill from speaking.

"This is Boothill."

"Hello, both of you."

Pearl nodded gently.

"The Strategic Investment Department has obtained irrefutable evidence of the actions of Oswald Schneider, the head of the Market Development Department."

According to Mr. Sera's plan, he will expose Oswald's investment in the experiments on Shuhu and Blood, as well as his affair with Amber Lord's nemesis, "Voracity."

The Diamond executives will simultaneously submit this to the board of directors and exert pressure.

"The Alliance will also exert external pressure together with the Strategic Investment Department." Yaoguang the doorway of the hidden door and announced that the Xianzhou would also be involved.

"Oswald was once a winner in the Phantasmoon Games. Whether he has any tricks up his sleeve, we don't yet know. The moment he's truly ready will be the moment he dies."

Sera wasn't prepared to take him down immediately. If Oswald is indeed the Master of the Holy Grail War, it's unclear whether his Noble Phantasm of Shadow of Voracity, possesses the ability to awaken the true Voracity.

Sera didn't want to fight the Voracity so soon; he wanted to rest for a few more days.

As for Oswald's purpose in coming to the Dual-Phase Paradise, one aspect is to facilitate a collaboration between Sera and the company, which Diamond has already made clear.

On the other hand, it's quite possible they're taking advantage of the chaos to obtain something.

What's suppressed beneath the Dual-Phase Paradise? As someone who once won the Phantasmoon Games, it's unlikely he wouldn't know.

In Sera's Remembrance, the Market Development Department had cut off the distress signals from Dual-Phase Paradise.

But what good could Oswald possibly gain from a Dual-Phase Paradise consumed by Voracity?

concept?

The information is insufficient; Diamond is not a director and has no access to information that warrants such authority.

"This is just to introduce you to your teammates. Once I figure out what I need to know, his death will be imminent."

"I've waited so long, a little more time won't make a difference."

Boothill wasn't in a hurry, but instead spoke to Sera as if they were old friends.

"Once this's all sorted out, I'll treat you to a drink, buddy, hmm..."

"Boss, is he an adult?" Boothill hesitated, then turned and asked in a low voice.

"..."

"Thank you, I'm an adult, but I don't drink."

"Then a glass of milk, please."

"Sigh... never mind."

Sera didn't dwell on it any further.

"I'm done with work, would you like to go for a walk in the streets with me?"

Does your invitation include me?

Pearl tilted her head, somewhat hesitant.

"Of course, Miss Pearl."

"Aha, we won't go, you guys have fun."

Busitu took Boothill to a corner in the downstairs hall to drink.

"Sigh, I'd like to go too, but those old guys in the Alliance have given me a lot of trouble, and I still have things to take care of."

Yaoguang smiled, turned and left. After all, she was the general of the Xianzhou, and there were some things that she had to handle.

"Want to come?"

Sera extended his hand, making an inviting gesture.

Without hesitation, Pearl took Sera's hand.

"Huh?" Sera was thinking of holding Pearl's hand, but Pearl actually grabbed his hand instead.

After a brief moment of surprise, Sera regained her composure and left the Tavern with the Pearl.

Sera was quite surprised that Pearl shook his outstretched hand without hesitation for even a second.

Pearl held Sera's hand without the slightest shyness or panic, as if it were nothing serious. The reason she held Sera's hand was because...

Let's go back to when Pearl was on Planet Screwllum, receiving the gift from Screwllum.

"You still haven't found your heart." Screwllum shook his head. Although his voice had a mechanical quality, it carried the weight of emotion.

"Pearl suggests: You could try staying by Sera's side. Trust me, you'll find your own 'heart' within him."

Seeing that Pearl was making no progress on her project, Screwllum offered a suggestion that would change her life.

"That new genius?" Pearl asked, puzzled.

Correct answer: Although we didn't spend much time together, in my opinion, he is a genius with a conscience and a strong sense of humanity, and a friend worth getting to know better.

Conclusion: I believe you can definitely learn from him what you lack.

"Okay, I will take your suggestion."

Pearl boarded the starship bound for the Dual-Phase Paradise, just as Diamond made a communication call.

"I heard you're on your way to the Dual-Phase Paradise?"

"Yes, this trip is to deliver a gift on behalf of Mr. Screwllum."

"Gift delivery... to that #84?"

"..."

Pearl did not respond.

I'm sorry, I cannot answer your question.

"Haha, I know."

Diamond didn't care about Pearl's concealment; after all, gift-giving was a genius's private matter, and he had no right to interfere.

"I mentioned it briefly to say that the Strategic Investment Department collaborated with that genius on the task of bringing down Oswald."

I've packed everything; you need to come and pick it up. At Dual-Phase Paradise, you will have full authority to act on behalf of the Strategic Investment Department, but you'll need to follow the orders of that genius.

Aventurine will also go, but he's dealing with some matters and will need some time.

"Learn."

After hearing the news, Pearl recorded the information in her database.

The reason Pearl didn't hesitate was because she was very curious about what kind of person Diamond could make her follow his orders and what kind of person Screwllum could give such high praise.

Sera's reason for inviting Pearl was equally simple: Screwllum him to guide Pearl to find her 'heart'.

This wasn't much of a hassle for Sera; in fact, she could even relax while carrying the Pearl.

Strolling through the streets of Two-Dimensional City, Sera saw many young couples who looked like they were in high school.

Romantic relationships during student years are mostly immature and awkward, with very few people able to express their feelings, let alone knowing that they might like each other.

Therefore, compared to dating, most people have unrequited love. Sera naturally understands Himeko's feelings, but she seems to still believe that she has unrequited love.

Aside from Himeko herself being unaware, and believing that only Suzi could see it, everyone actually understood, and everyone just smiled without saying a word.
