Buzz————!

Almost at the moment when Topal finished speaking, the spaceship, which was originally in the jump state, returned to its normal state after a shake. At the same time, the dark sky in the cockpit was opened, showing the blue planet to the two.

"Is this... the Azure Planet?" Looking at the planet that seemed so close, Kevin couldn't help but lower his head and mutter to himself.

At least from the appearance alone, it is really very similar to the planet in Kevin's memory. It's a pity that they are not the same place after all... It's better not to have the same situation.

"Are we finally at our destination? Boss Kevin?"

At the same time, the door of the cockpit was opened, and then Paduo and Little Ellie came in together.

The difference between the pitiful little spaceship of Padua and the cockpit of Topa, a senior executive of the "company", was that even if there were four of them standing on the cockpit, it would not seem crowded - not to mention that it was also equipped with rooms such as bedrooms and kitchens?

Many times, it is true that comparing yourself with others will make you angry, because you can always realize very clearly that no matter how hard you try, it is unlikely to reach their level.

But compared to the relatively worry-free Pado, Kevin is more worried about whether Alicia will cause him some weird trouble after arriving at the new place?

Sure enough, after seeing the blue planet outside the window, Little Ellie flashed and lay on the edge of the window, pointed at it from afar and asked: "It looks so beautiful... Is this the planet we are going to next?"

Unfortunately, before Kevin could come to pour cold water on her, Topa said helplessly, "That won't do. Strictly speaking, Azure Star is the private territory of Madam Black Tower. She protects it very well. Without her permission, none of us can enter."

There is no doubt that the Black Tower born on the Azure Star soon surpassed her home planet in all aspects. However, this strong woman did not ignore her home planet which was of no help to her. Instead, she included the entire original civilization in her protection.

As for why this behavior is called protection rather than dictatorship...that is of course because Ms. Black Tower herself has never paid attention to anything above that, and can be said to have completely let it go.

No matter what, it is undoubtedly a blessing for the entire civilization to have such a strong umbrella of protection in this often turbulent universe.

It's just hard for the geniuses living here. With such a big shot hanging over their heads, it can be said that they will never have the chance to hold their heads up in their lifetime.

"Well, then she should be easy to talk to...How about I go and beg her?"

On the other side, after hearing Topa's answer, little Ellie said so, tilting her head with a rather helpless expression, as if someone was forcing her to do something she didn't want to do.

Fortunately, Kevin mercilessly lifted her collar the next second and said helplessly: "If you can just stand there and do nothing, it will be the greatest help to me."

"How can you say that? I'm obviously very useful!"

Little Ai Li retorted confidently, but saw Kevin still staring at her without saying a word. Under the pressure of that aura, she, who had done a lot of bad things before, naturally became less and less confident, and finally she could only poke her finger and try to respond -

"Eh...eh hey?"

"Ugh......"

Faced with this situation, what else could Kevin do except sigh? Should he just spank her without saying anything?

"Okay, okay, Mr. Kevin, she is just a child after all."

Topa, who didn't know the truth, waved his hands to defend Little Ellie, and then continued: "I had already reached an agreement with the staff on the space station before I came here. Now they should have prepared for the reception on the bridge. We can just go over there."

As he said that, Topa turned around, waved his hand and pulled out the operating panel on the spacecraft, and began to arrange the next docking work. Little Ellie even started to climb up by grabbing a pole and directly hugged someone's thigh.

"Hehe, after all, Sister Topa is the best to me~"

Looking at this speechless scene in front of him, Kevin could only clench his hands silently——

Hard, his fist is hard!

Chapter 223 Cute little girls always have privileges~

"Ms. Ester, you have been working for more than fourteen hours straight. Why don't you take a break first? I can take care of the reception of the company's guests."

At the same time, in the Black Tower Space Station, a dark-skinned young man whispered to the girl standing in front of him.

"How can this be? No matter what, the 'company' is the largest investor in the Black Tower Space Station. It's fine that Ms. Black Tower is not here now, but if I, the stationmaster, am still hiding in the background, how do you want others to view this matter?"

Facing the young man's proposal, Esther, the stationmaster, sighed softly, as if she was lamenting her own busyness, or as if she was blaming the Black Tower lady who acted as a hands-off manager without hesitation.

But soon, when she subconsciously looked at the boy beside her, she couldn't help but say, "Besides, Alan, it seems that it should be me who should advise people to take a rest, right?"

Not to mention the very obvious scar on his face, just looking at the places where his body was wrapped in bandages, this young man had more than a dozen scars of varying sizes - those were the wounds left when he, as the head of the defense department, was covering for everyone when the Antimatter Legion attacked the Black Tower Space Station not long ago.

Honestly speaking, in such a critical situation, Alan was lucky to be able to save his life. But the kid insisted on going back to work the next day after lying in bed, completely ignoring his horrific injuries.

Even though she had used threats and inducements for a long time, the child only lay in bed for less than a week before quietly getting up. He even went on some dangerous tasks to prove that he had basically recovered... Really, was it necessary to work so hard?

But then again, it seems that these things can only be blamed on Alan's living environment when he was a child - it was a place where you couldn't survive without trying your best, and the cruel reality did not allow them to be lazy at all.

But isn't this the same everywhere? Even though they knew the space station was protected by the Black Tower Lady, didn't the antimatter army still charge in without hesitation?

If it weren't for the help of the Star Train, the trouble would not have been solved so easily. Not to mention the number of casualties, the entire space station might not have been able to be preserved intact.

The more she thought about these things, the more Esta felt that she still had a long way to go - at the very least, she had to find a way to protect Ms. Black Tower's space station and all the staff in it, right?

"Sigh..." The more she thought about it, the more headache Ester felt, until finally she couldn't help but sigh.

After seeing this, Alan, who was originally planning to argue, immediately lowered his head and said to Estelle like a child who had done something wrong: "I'm sorry, Miss, I seem to have made you worry too much again..."

"Oh, it's okay. I just want you to pay a little more attention to your condition next time, and not always show off." Seeing Alan bow his head and admit his mistake, the soft-hearted Ester naturally comforted him at the first time. What a heartwarming scene it was.

It’s a pity that if Kevin saw this scene, he would probably want to cry even though he is usually calm in the face of any situation.

After all, look at what other people's children are like, and then think about what your own children are like - which parent would be unable to bear such thinking and torture, okay?

After all, if Alicia saw Kevin being made uncomfortable by her success, she might even be secretly happy?

呲————

It just so happened that at this moment, the door in front of the two of them, which had been tightly closed, suddenly responded. So Ester quickly patted Alan beside her and said, "Hurry up, the people from the 'company' are here, don't act too weird."

As the two people who were originally playing and joking stood up straight, a large amount of air suddenly burst out from behind the tightly closed door - then the door opened, and the first person who appeared in front of the two was a petite figure.

"Eh?"

"Miss, is this the inspector from the 'company' you mentioned?" Alan asked quietly, hiding himself behind Estelle.

"No, I guess not...?"

No matter how you look at it, this girl is just an ordinary little girl, right? How could she be someone sent by the company? At most, she is... cute?

But since when has cuteness ever been relied upon by election inspectors?!

While the two were still in a daze, the petite figure in the smoke brightened up the moment she saw them, and then pounced on Ester without hesitation -

"Hello, beautiful sister... Ouch?!"

Unfortunately, this vicious act, like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, had just been carried out halfway when a pair of large hands suddenly reached out from the smoke behind her, easily grabbed the back collar of her clothes, and pulled her back to his side from the state of pouncing forward.

After seeing this scene, although Ester still didn't understand what had just happened, she subconsciously patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.

The next second, Topa walked out from the back. She looked at the scene helplessly, covering her forehead and shaking her head, before she explained, "I'm sorry, Miss Esta. I don't think that scene just now scared you, did it?"

"How should I put it, this child might be, um... a little too lively?"

Even though Topa herself had no business etiquette worth mentioning, she still felt that it was very impolite to rush up to someone and hug their thighs as soon as they met.

Even if this child is indeed very cute...this doesn't work!

Even if it was his own accountant who did such a thing, Topa would definitely severely condemn that child!

"It's okay, it's okay. After all, I'm not affected at all. Besides... this child is very cute." Ester shook her head and said.

No matter where you go, cute girls will always have some privileges. After all, this is a fact that cannot be changed... Wait, maybe some cute little boys can have some privileges too?

Chapter 224: Here’s a little money for you!

After shifting her gaze away from the naughty little Ellie, Estelle turned her gaze back and seemed to suddenly realize something. She asked softly, "Are you... Miss Topper?"

"Hmm? I didn't expect that Miss Estelle still remembers me even though we only met once before? I am really flattered."

Although it was obviously not as respectful as his tone indicated, Topa's attitude clearly showed some of the reactions he would have when facing someone of the same level or even a superior.

But her public identity was clearly a creditor of a company that came to the Black Tower Space Station to conduct an asset inspection. So it was obvious that in addition to being the stationmaster of the Black Tower Space Station, Estelle should have other identities that allowed her to meet with Topa.

Of course, this shouldn't be something Kevin deliberately delved into.

"I'm flattered... Here, I'm just a webmaster working with everyone for better scientific research."

Esta quickly waved her hands, and then, as if to change the subject, she said, "Ms. Toppa, your promotion speed in recent years is probably unprecedented in the entire Interstellar Peace Company, right? Moreover, your ability is so strong... No matter from which aspect, you are much better than me."

Although she was quite confident in her astronomy, she was also very aware that there was still a gap between her and those true geniuses - and there was no doubt that Topa was definitely a rare business genius, as he was able to become a senior executive of a company from an ordinary child in just a few years.

But just as Esta finished praising him, she saw Topa immediately reveal a helpless expression, spreading his palms towards Kevin and saying, "Who said that my promotion speed is the fastest? Look at Mr. Kevin, he just joined the 'company' a few days ago, and now he has become a big shot at the P44 level."

There wasn't much praise in these words. Topa was really sighing - even in a "company" where money matters, having enough ability can be considered a privilege.

"What? Is this true? It's so powerful!!"

As for the job divisions in the company, Esta was very clear. P44 was considered a formal management level in the company anyway, and it was not a position that could be promoted just by hard work.

You must be able to clearly prove to the company that you do have sufficient ability and value before they will be willing to include you in the assessment list. What follows is a long assessment period - during this process, you may even need to continue to compete with other assessors in order to have a chance of getting one of the few places.

To skip this process, unless your value to them is so great that they have to use it to win you over... After all, for a group of businessmen, what is most important is what can bring them value.

As for this, Esta herself has a deep understanding of it.

However, this may be considered as praise for other people, but for Kevin, he didn't really care about these things after all, so why should he be happy?

"It would be better if you could stop framing me in this matter." Kevin said with an imperceptible sigh.

"Pfft..."

You have to forgive little Ai Li. She has received extremely professional training and will never laugh randomly... unless she can't help it!

However, forgiving people is obviously not within Kevin's job scope. The best he can do is to beat little Ellie into autism and then let her forgive herself.

"Okay, Miss Ester, I'm here for business after all, so let's put aside the small talk for now. If you really want to know something, why don't you just call home?"

After winking at Esta playfully, Topa quickly returned to work, hugged his chest and turned to ask, "So, where is Ms. Black Tower? Why don't I see a single doll?"

What does this... have to do with puppets?

Just when Kevin was subconsciously feeling puzzled, he suddenly keenly felt that in a hidden corner of the hall, a mechanical doll that was originally on standby suddenly moved.

The appearance of this mechanical doll was handled perfectly. If the maker had not intentionally left visible mechanisms at some joints, most people would probably mistake it for a living human being.

Looking at the doll's face, Kevin silently glanced at the portraits that were almost everywhere in the hall...Then there was no doubt that this was the owner of this space station, the lady in the black tower.

So, using puppets that can be remotely controlled for activities is to make it convenient for you to stay at home and conduct scientific research at any time?

As expected, these scientists all have some nerdy qualities. Kevin has no doubt that if Mobius gets hold of such technology, most people in the Fire Moth may never see her in person in their lifetime.

Soon, under everyone's gaze, the puppet walked up to them naturally, like a real person who didn't feel anything, and complained without hesitation: "In my opinion, the best time for your company is to invest money... Can't you just keep this one activity?"

"Haha, Ms. Heita, you are joking. If you only spend money but never earn money, no matter how big the company is, it will inevitably face bankruptcy one day. That won't work."

As he spoke, Topa clapped his hands, then turned around and pointed at the light curtain that was constantly unfolding upwards behind him, and said softly: "First, let's face the first problem - this is Ms. Heita's bill for last month."

It was almost visible to the naked eye that the square in the center began to climb upward rapidly, and finally it almost reached the ceiling of the entire hall before it was barely considered finished.

"what?!"

No matter what unit is used in this table, Kevin has reason to believe that this is definitely an unimaginable amount of money... because Miss Ester can't close her jaw anymore.

"That's all?"

After just one glance, Ms. Heita turned her head away without hesitation.

"A few small coins, I'll leave them to you."

"Eh????"

Chapter 225 "Simulated Universe"

This little person in the black tower came so naturally and left so mechanically - her strange posture with her hands and feet stretched out allowed her to walk faster than a normal person could run, and she disappeared around the corner in a moment.

That's why Ester looked so helpless when she stretched out her hands in a daze but only caught a handful of air.

"Ms. Ester, look..."

At this time, Topa, who had entered the working state, obviously no longer cared about the old relationship like she did just now. She stretched out her fingers and gently tapped on the light screen that appeared in the air. The meaning she wanted to express was self-evident.

"Oh... take it and brush it..."

Esta sighed and seemed to be in low spirits. She gently took out a black card from her pocket and slowly handed it to the other party.
