Chapter 208
Dr. Truth shook his head and sighed.
【Maybe I went crazy long ago, who knows?】
Topaz said inexplicably.
【.....】
【Forget it.】
【Here's this for you, take it.】
【Open it when you're at death's door, you'll thank me.】
Dr. Truth handed Topaz something.
【What the heck is this.... a medical note?】
Topaz took the thing, looked down at it for a while,
somewhat baffled.
He wanted to ask what exactly this thing was,
but when he looked up,
he found Dr. Truth had long since vanished.
【.... Heh, you do know your drama, Professor.】
This scene struck Topaz as rather amusing.
Xiangling: "Topaz actually ended up together with Dr. Truth again!"
Xiangling: "Why don't they ever fight?"
Furina: "Because it's pretty obvious now...."
Furina: "they've actually been putting on an act all along."
Xiangling: "Wow, then their acting skills really are great!"
Xiangling: "They could act so convincingly!"
March 7th: "But from their conversation, it seems like they were both improvising?"
March 7th: "They didn't plan anything beforehand?"
March 7th: "Just guessing at each other the whole way?"
Stelle: "Damn, what kind of telepathic dream team is this?"
Stelle: "So you two are actually tight buddies, huh?"
Topaz: "Hey, I'd be happy to be tight buddies with the Professor, but sadly he doesn't think much of me?"
Dr. Truth: "Heh, I'd rather sit in the Mediocrity Academy than be tight buddies with a gambler."
Shadow: "Although they relied on their tacit understanding to vaguely grasp each other's plans,"
Shadow: "they didn't seem to anticipate Mr. Sunday's methods...."
Shadow: "This has led to Mr. Topaz now falling into a life-and-death crisis, not long for this world."
Miss Sushang: "So next, are we really betting our lives?"
Topaz: "Tsk tsk tsk, betting my life is nothing — this is my specialty."
Topaz: "Believe me, this time, I won't lose the gamble either!"
Topaz: "Because I.... have never lost!"
Sparkle: "Nice morale, little Kong Que?"
Sparkle: "I'm really curious where you get your confidence from~"
Sparkle: "Care to tell me, what's so fun hidden inside that cheap luggage bag you went through so much trouble to bring out~"
Topaz: "Heh, didn't the video already say?"
Topaz: "Just some ordinary jewelry."
Sparkle: "Is that really so, little Kong Que?"
Sparkle: "Hehe, I'm not as easy to fool as them~"
Sparkle: "Fine fine fine, if you won't talk, then I'll just keep watching~"
Sparkle: "I hope whatever you're hiding is at least a little entertaining~"
The video continued.
【Ah....】
【Want me to investigate, but won't give me a single clue...】
【Real smooth, you wing-headed bastard.】
【But the way you all squirmed over that stowaway did confirm my "hypothesis."】
【Next...... let the company's rain of wealth fall equally on every head.】
The methods Sunday had previously deployed had already begun to take effect,
and Topaz's head started to ache.
This made him cannot help but curse Sunday,
then he began to take action.
He started walking down the street,
preparing to find someone and inquire about that stowaway's information.
【To let the "Song of Pure Beauty" continue to be sung across the galaxy, please do support my performance.】
Topaz walked up to an actress,
preparing to ask her for some information.
"Miss, these gemstones are for you."
Topaz took some gemstones from his luggage bag and handed them to the actress.
"Wow, what beautiful gemstones!"
"But why would you give such a lovely gift to a stranger?"
The actress was somewhat delighted by the gemstones Topaz had given her,
but also a little puzzled.
"Because... I can't bear to see anyone suffer poverty in a beautiful dream."
Topaz thought for a moment,
and casually offered a completely far-fetched reason.
"You really are... kind-hearted."
"Then I'll accept them."
"Thank you, Mr. — it's nice to meet you."
"If you have the chance, you're welcome to come hear me sing."
