Cherreads

Chapter 183 - Chapter 7:

"..."

As the door of the data room closed, Mobius paused for a moment, and a hint of darkness slowly flashed in her gradient snake pupils. After a moment, she continued to move.

Her senses were not that weak; she had noticed the peeping from outside just now.

But even though she noticed it, she didn't take it seriously, as she had observed this kind of curious peeping many times before.

If things were normal, Mobius might have had the mindset to "play around," but now... she didn't have the time or energy to focus on trivial matters.

If they didn't disturb her, she would naturally pretend not to notice...

But if they took the initiative to approach her, she wouldn't hesitate to teach them a lesson.

Though, Mobius also knew that her recent behavior of "working and working overtime" had attracted the attention and curiosity of many people.

However, she was in a hurry now... There was nothing she could do except pretend to rest a little.

"Ah... It's really a headache."

After sighing softly, Mobius went to find the information she needed according to the classification.

...

"A workaholic who forgets to eat and sleep? How curious..."

It wasn't until Mobius had been examining the information for a while that the woman who had been watching her withdrew her interested gaze and slowly walked away.

Then she stretched out her hand and gently stroked her cherry lips, muttering.

If Mobius were here at this moment, she would definitely recognize this woman with gray hair, green eyes, double feathers on her head, and a snake tail... Ho'olheyak.

However, even if she recognized her, she probably wouldn't care much, because in her opinion, Ho'olheyak was just an insignificant person with a complicated identity.

If Mobius had to say she cared about something, it would be about Ho'olheyak's body rather than her as a person.

After all, [Kukulkan] sounded like a good research subject.

——————————————————

In the Data Room——

Mobius was looking through the relevant information she had finally found when she suddenly paused. A flash of dissatisfaction and understanding appeared in her eyes.

Just now, Bianka had informed her that Sakura's affairs had been dealt with and that Sakura could be summoned at any time.

However, this matter was not important to Mobius at the moment. She was still in the data room, where she could not directly summon anyone, and her primary task was to continue checking the information.

Moreover, Mobius did not intend to keep Sakura by her side from the beginning, as Sakura had no talent related to scientific research...

So in her opinion, it was better to place Sakura in a position where she could better utilize her strengths, such as the [Defense Section] of Rhine Lab.

On one hand, Sakura and Saria were not too bad in compatibility, and they could work together.

At the same time, Sakura could also keep an eye on the movements of S. Rhine King of Fighters, Rhea.

On the other hand, considering that Saria might not stay in Rhine Lab for long, Mobius had also thought about letting Sakura replace her after she left.

As for how Sakura would enter the Defense Section now, that wasn't Mobius's concern. Sakura would need to find her own way...

After all, Saria, the head of the Defense Section, was famous for her fairness and integrity. It wasn't easy to pull off any tricks there.

"Huh..."

Mobius exhaled a breath of stale air, gathered her thoughts, and focused on the information in her hands again.

However, before she could read for long... the sound of crisp footsteps echoed, approaching her step by step.

"Da Da——"

"..."

Although Mobius heard the footsteps and sensed the presence of the person coming, she remained calm and had no intention of looking up. Her thoughts and focus were still on the information.

However, if someone could look her in the eye at this moment, they would notice that although she seemed calm on the surface, a trace of irritation and impatience was slowly flashing in her eyes.

After all, Mobius never liked being disturbed when she was researching and studying. It was tolerable before when it was "herself," but this time...

"I didn't expect that Miss Mobius, who has caused quite a stir in the academic world recently, would actually be checking basic information?"

No matter how much Mobius didn't want to pay attention at that moment, Ho'olheyak's crisp voice still reached her ears along with the sound of footsteps.

"..."

After hearing this, Mobius did not respond immediately but continued to look through the information in her hand.

Only when she finished the chapter did she slowly raise her eyelids and say, "So, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"If not, to borrow someone else's words, 'please' get out of here and disappear from my sight. Thank you~"

"You have a really straightforward and rough way of driving people away. I didn't expect Miss Mobius to say these rude words."

Faced with Mobius's dismissal, Ho'olheyak wasn't angry; in fact, the interest in her green eyes grew stronger.

To be honest, Ho'olheyak had never been very interested in people because, in her opinion, it was better to study documents or collections full of flowing history.

But... that was before the first time she met Mobius.

Strictly speaking, it wasn't the first time Ho'olheyak had met Mobius. She had encountered this newcomer in the structural department long ago.

But how to explain it... Ho'olheyak never expected there to be a person who would give her such a strange feeling.

At first glance, she actually thought that Mobius was "the same kind," but after careful observation, she noticed something different, something strange, that even gave her a completely opposite feeling of rejection...

So when they first met, although there was no communication or interaction, Ho'olheyak had already remembered Mobius in her heart and secretly observed and investigated her.

But the more she investigated, the more her interest grew.

Why? Because...

Ho'olheyak was surprised to find that she couldn't find any information about Mobius's past, despite her abilities...

The only thing she discovered was that Mobius had passed through Kazimierz when she arrived, and that was all.

When it comes to Kazimierz, Ho'olheyak couldn't help but think of the terrifying [Bright Knight] who had been in the spotlight with exaggerated strength a few days ago... and the fact that the two of them had no obvious racial characteristics also triggered her curiosity.

As for the race [Aegir] that Mobius had listed in the Rhine Life files, Ho'olheyak still harbored her doubts.

Because her intuition told her that Mobius was not as simple as she appeared...
