Heading to I-Island (End of Volume Three)

"Two people!" Camie Utsushimi's eyes immediately turned suspicious. "Was it a boy or a girl who went with you?"

"A girl," Jilan replied, then added, "Of course, I'm not taking your ticket for free. You can name your price, as long as it's not too much higher than the official price."

Camie Utsushimi on the table in disbelief. "Jilan, are you using me as a tool? I know perfectly well that invitations are incredibly valuable, and even I only managed to get one!"

Just like a ball, each invitation allows one person to bring one dance partner, meaning one invitation can be used by two people. Camie Utsushimi originally wanted to invite Jilan to attend the expo with her.

"Girls," Camie Utsushimi murmured, her large eyes suddenly welling up with tears. "Yesterday you called me 'Sweetie,' and today you've abandoned me for someone new!"

"Hey, hey, hey, don't say things like that. I've never called you 'Sweetie'," Jilan said, squinting. "Besides, we've never been together, have we?"

Camie Utsushimi, said, "We've kissed!"

"When? How come I didn't know?"

"Just now!" Camie Utsushimi pointed to the glass she had just emptied and declared confidently, "We just indirectly kissed!"

The glass still bears the pink lipstick mark left by Camie Utsushimi.

"This is giving me a headache," Jilan groaned, rubbing her head. "The thing I'm worst at dealing with is someone like you who doesn't care about saving face at all."

"I'll take that as a compliment." Camie Utsushimi's earlier unreasonable behavior as if it were an illusion, she rested her chin on her right hand and poked Jilan's arm with her left, saying, "Seriously, haven't you really considered coming with me?"

Go with Camie Utsushimi? Jilan had originally planned to do that, but after Camie Utsushimi's tantrum just now, Jilan became even more certain of one thing: if she went by boat with Utsushimi, many unexpected things would definitely happen!

"No, I've already made plans to take her with me." Jilan Jiyu looked calmly at Camie Utsushimi. "You really can't let go of an invitation? I think if it were you, getting an invitation wouldn't be difficult."

Jilan had heard something when she was with the Soul Band: Camie Utsushimi's father was a board member of Shiketsu High School and had a lot of resources. As a rich girl, she should have many people wanting to invite her.

Camie Utsushimi looked at Jilan with a resentful expression. "What do I need so many invitations for? After all, the person I want to invite doesn't want to go with me."

"In that case, I'll have to find someone else." Jilan sighed, took out his phone from his pocket, and muttered to himself as he swiped, "Our U.A. High School's first-place Katsuki Bakugo in the Sports Festival, Bakugo Katsuki, received an invitation from IIsland. Logically, Shiketsu High School's first-place Inasa Yoarashi, should also receive an invitation, unless they think Shiketsu High School is far inferior to U.A. High School., and that the first-place finisher doesn't even deserve an invitation."

Jilan found Yoarashi's phone number, dialed it, and said with a smile to Camie Utsushimi, "Guess what? If I ask Yoarashi for it, will he give me that invitation?"

Camie Utsushimi knew Jilan was right, Inasa Yoarashi had indeed received an invitation, which she had personally handed to Yoarashi yesterday. Based on Yoarashi's usual attitude towards Jilan, he would give Jilan anything he had, especially something like the "Jilan I-Island Expo," which he wasn't particularly interested in.

"Jilan, you actually called me. I'm not seeing things, am I!?"

Camie Utsushimi paused for a moment, and Inasa Yoarashi had the same reaction when he received Jilan's call.

"Yes, I need to talk to you about something."

"Just say the word Jilan, and I Yoarashi, will do anything you can!"

As Jilan looked at Utsushimi, she said, "Actually, I want..."

"Wait, I agree!" Camie Utsushimi 'Yoarashi words, "Hey, what's up? I think I heard Utsushimi voice," Kemi snatched Jilan's phone, hung up, and quickly blocked Inasa Yoarashi to prevent him from calling.

Jilan had already guessed that Utsushimi would try to snatch it, so she didn't use any force.

Jilan smiled and said, "What, have you changed your mind?"

"Jilan, you're such a liar! Yoarashi is the face of Shiketsu High School, he has to go to the expo no matter what!" Camie Utsushimi pouted, resting her chin on Jilan's phone. "You know I have to side with the school, so you'll stop Inasa Yoarashi's stupid behavior, right?"

"I didn't think that way," Jilan shrugged. "Actually Yoarashi could have used your invitation to go too."

Camie Utsushimi resentfully, "Forget it, that big guy won't accept any of my kindness. He always thinks I'm trying to cheat him. I'd rather use his card."

"Isn't that because you've tricked him too many times?" Jilan rolled her eyes. "Although I haven't replied to his texts much, I've still read every single one of his complaints."

"Isn't it because he's so stupid it's unbearable to watch?" Camie Utsushimi pulled open her clothes, dragged out the invitation from her front, and reluctantly handed it to Jilan. "Here, this is the invitation. Just take it to the IIsland reception desk to register."

Camie Utsushimi's eyes lit up. "Jilan, if you don't want to use the same invitation as me, we can take the same plane. I won't be jealous even if a woman I don't know sits next to you!"

"Although I really wanted to do that, unfortunately, I've already chosen my mode of transportation." Jilan took the invitation, still Utsushimi from her hand, from her. "Thank you for the ticket. How much is it? I'll transfer the money to you later."

"Hmph, I don't want your stinking money!" Camie Utsushimi defiantly turned her head, pointing to her flawless face. "One kiss, no credit."

Jilan was somewhat amused and exasperated. "Honestly, sometimes I really don't understand what you want. You always manage to break the limits of what I've ever imagined."

"What I want is very simple," Camie Utsushimi earnestly, turning her head. "I want to be with you."

A physics laboratory on IIsland.

"Doctor, are you sure you want to do this? Once my men and I are on the ship, we won't contact you anymore. Satellite phones are quite expensive, and it's not too late to back out now. We don't want to go against the United Nations."

A middle-aged man in a white coat was on the phone, his face very serious. "The reward I've given you is already generous enough. As long as you take that thing off the island, our cooperation will be complete, and I will help you escape."

"Doctor, I don't understand. We're all outlaws; death doesn't matter to us. But you're a world-renowned inventor. Is this thing worth giving up everything for?"

The man known as the Doctor wore glasses that reflected lines of code on the blue screen. "Some things are worth abandoning everything to accomplish, and some people are worth abandoning everything to protect."

The phone call ended, and the doctor, as if all his strength had been drained, suddenly leaned against the control panel and took a photograph out of his pocket.

"Dad, are you still in the lab?"

A vibrant female voice rang out in the empty room, and soon the lights were turned on. A lively blonde girl ran in, a bright smile on her face. "Daddy, why didn't you turn on the lights? I thought you weren't here!"

The doctor quickly put away the photo, then smiled and picked up the girl, saying, "Sometimes, you can think better in the dark."

The girl said with some worry, "But Dad, you should also try to rest. After all, you are one of the most important pillars of this island. What if you get sick from overwork?"

"I'm a doctor, you know. As long as I have a sanity, I can't rest." The doctor smiled and released the girl.

"Hmm." The girl glared at the professor for a few seconds, feigning anger, then burst out laughing. "It's precisely because of Dad's personality that he was able to become Uncle's assistant."

"Haha, you're right," the doctor said, his heart sinking slightly.

The girl, oblivious to all this, pulled the professor to a chair and forced him to sit down, smiling as she massaged his shoulders, "To reward Dad for his hard work, I've prepared a mysterious gift for you!"

"Oh, what's that? Is it one of your little inventions? It always surprises me!"

"I can't tell you now, but Daddy, you'll definitely love it!" The girl threw herself onto the doctor's back. "It's a wonderful gift that will make you forget all your fatigue!"

"Really? Then I'll be looking forward to it! Hahaha!"
