Chapter 80: …That’s Actually Pretty Comfortable
***
“Blanca, is Dr. Mobius in?”
She could faintly hear a light, sweet girl’s voice by her ear, but to Mobius, this kind of voice was nothing but noise.
This morning when she opened her closet, she saw that there were obviously clothes that didn’t belong to her in her wardrobe — a maid outfit.
She didn’t even need to think to know exactly who had done this.
That annoying person. She had specifically changed to a highly encrypted door lock, so how exactly did Elysia sneak in?
This puzzling question didn’t delay the movents of Mobius’s hands.
It was just that the gradually approaching footsteps made this normally extrely composed doctor’s eyebrows, which usually showed little emotion, slowly twist into a frown.
Finally, Mobius turned her head and glared at the pink girl who was taking cat steps and slowly approaching her, saying with great dissatisfaction:
“Blanca, didn’t I tell you not to let this person in?!”
Blanca, who followed in from outside, showed a sowhat embarrassed expression upon hearing this.
“Really, to treat a beautiful girl by specifically writing in the access control regulations — ‘Elysia is not allowed to enter’ — such a rule, I could cry, you know.”
“Dr. Mobius is really too much, don’t you think so, Blanca?”
The girl pouted and puffed her cheeks, looking quite indignant. While expressing her dissatisfaction, she directly pulled in Blanca beside her, who showed a sowhat helpless expression.
If she said one word of agreent, she might be fired by Dr. Mobius tomorrow for stepping into the laboratory with her left foot first!
About this, Blanca could only smile and drop a line:
“You two chat, I’ll go outside for so fresh air.”
After she left, Mobius, who hadn’t put down her work, stared intently at the data sheet in her hand and spoke first:
“Speak up, what do you want from ?”
“Eh, could it be that in Mobius’s eyes, I’m the type who only cos to find you when there’s sothing? Isn’t that looking at too pragmatically~”
“If that’s all you have to say, you can leave now.”
Mobius’s tone was utterly impolite, even carrying so disdain.
In her eyes, this annoying woman wasn’t even as good as the type who only ca when they needed sothing.
At least with that type, after dealing with them, she could continue doing experints in peace.
With Elysia… Miss Snake had to consider how to expel this annoying elf from her domain.
Although she really wanted to tease the cute Dr. Mobius, Jiang Qiao still rembered what she had to do. If she raised Snake’s anger ter and got beaten out of the laboratory with clubs, that would be bad.
“Alright, alright~ I do indeed have sothing to find you for today.”
“I want — information about the Cocoon?”
When the words “Cocoon” were spoken with a smile by the girl, those sharp snake eyes imdiately fixed on 【Elysia】, and even her hand movents stopped.
Unlike Fire Moth, Cocoon was a special assassination organization that belonged to the sa category as Fire Moth but was largely independent from Fire Moth. Its main function, just like its nature, was to serve as white gloves for the Fire Moth higher-ups.
Eliminating Fire Moth deserters, destroying targets that the Fire Moth higher-ups considered dangerous.
As one of the creators of Fire Moth and also a mber of the higher-ups, Mobius naturally knew about this departnt, and even later beca the highest officer of this division.
But for the early period — that is, the current Fire Moth — Cocoon was a top-secret departnt known only to a few people.
“What do you want that for? Don’t tell you want to join Cocoon.”
Mobius didn’t ask how Jiang Qiao knew about Cocoon’s existence. With 【Elysia】 title as Fire Moth’s social butterfly, as long as it was intelligence circulating within the organization, there were no secrets as long as Elysia was determined to investigate. In this aspect, she even surpassed Erwin, who called herself Fire Moth’s know-it-all.
She only cared about why Jiang Qiao would want information about Cocoon.
Logically speaking, as a Fire Moth warrior, 【Elysia】 shouldn’t have any ideas about Cocoon.
“Hmm~ Probably curiosity? Want to understand and get to know the cute beautiful girls in Cocoon?”
The girl smiled as she rested her chin on her hand, blinking her eyes. However, her tone when speaking was uncertain even to herself, as if it was a hastily thought-up reason.
“…”
If it were anyone else saying this, Mobius would have sent them to the operating table on the spot.
Want to get to know cute girls in Cocoon?
Cocoon was an assassination organization, where would there be… wait, there actually seed to be quite a few.
But no matter what, wanting to obtain intelligence about an assassination organization like Cocoon just because you wanted to et pretty girls was an extrely ridiculous reason.
However, if it was Elysia saying this.
Mobius believed it.
If it was this annoying woman, doing anything absurd wouldn’t be strange.
What’s more, it was about getting to know girls?
Looking at the pink girl in front of her who was looking forward with anticipation, staring at her with watery big eyes, Mobius fell into brief contemplation.
After a long while, she spoke:
“I can only give you part of it.”
Although she was a Fire Moth higher-up, due to her personality and various other reasons, Mobius was also the type who wasn’t well-liked among the Fire Moth higher-ups. Even during the Second Eruption, those higher-ups deliberately kept things from her, only notifying her when they couldn’t handle it anymore.
And because of Cocoon’s special nature, even Mobius, who was also a higher-up, had no authority to interfere.
All she could do was use her clearance to look at the parts of Cocoon that were open to her.
“Hmm~ No problem, I knew that finding Dr. Mobius for this matter would definitely work out~”
The smiling girl moved closer to Mobius, placing both hands on the latter’s shoulders and gently applying pressure.
The just-right amount of force made Snake, who originally had no particular thoughts, instinctively squint her eyes and shiver.
…That’s actually pretty comfortable.
Although this woman was quite annoying, her shoulder massage technique was really… If it weren’t for considering that Elysia was really too noisy and too annoying, Mobius would have almost thought about transferring Elysia to her own laboratory specifically to give her massages.
Forget it, she’d just have Blanca learn this kind of technique later.
“A bit harder there… yes, right there… mm~”
“However—”
“Elysia, didn’t you take my previous words to heart?”
While enjoying this comfortable feeling, Mobius didn’t forget to express her dissatisfaction.
She should have clearly reminded Jiang Qiao to pay attention to boundaries.
Yet, she actually wanted to contact Cocoon for such an absurd reason.
This was simply dancing on the edge of the Fire Moth higher-ups’ danger zone.
If this continued, Mobius couldn’t help but worry.
Elysia hadn’t even had much contact with Cocoon yet, but the latter might already be looking for the forr.
— But what did that have to do with her?
If this annoying woman disappeared early, she wouldn’t be bothered anymore when doing experints in the future… Ahh~
