My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

Hui spotted her target: a couple and a boy who looked about 13 or 4 years old, who walked out of a luxury villa.

At this moment, there were no surveillance cameras or bodyguards around them, and a few passersby were still some distance away.

Hui smiled and walked towards them.

As she drew near, Hui immediately felt two burning gazes and one look of disgust.

The woman in the evening gown slapped her husband, but he didn't react at all, still staring at Hui with possessive eyes.

At this moment, Sumitomo Juto's heart was filled with infatuation and joy, like a wolf that had been starving for a month suddenly seeing a little lamb in front of it.

Such a stunning beauty exists in this world! What kind of women have I been with before?! I don't even recognize her. She's probably not some rich heiress. And while her clothes are pretty, they're all from ordinary brands. So... what's the purpose of such a beauty coming to Chiyo Ward? Heh...

Chapter 17

Sumitomo Juto felt as if he was already riding on this little beauty!

Sumitomo Kyuto's son, Sumitomo Hirokazu, was also filled with longing: he had to have her.

"Hello, young lady, I'm Sumitomo..." Sumitomo Treeman said in a friendly manner.

However, Hui felt their disgusted gazes and had no intention of wasting words with them.

They instantly subdued the three of them, realizing that the man was the president of the Sumitomo Group.

The Sumitomo Group mainly deals in real estate and is not comparable to the Yasuda zaibatsu, but it is definitely a behemoth to ordinary people.

The banquet invitations were obtained by Sumitomo Tatsuto after going through great lengths.

Moreover, how many people who made their fortunes in real estate have clean hands?

Hui smiled and rewrote their perception: now, in their memories, they saw no beautiful girl, and all their actions were done as they pleased.

Then, Hui led them back to Sumitomo Tree House.

Hui went to the banquet to join in the fun, and of course she didn't want to become part of the "fun," so she wanted to make some necessary disguises to her appearance.

Using makeup skills she learned online, Hui quickly transformed into a pretty and ordinary-looking girl, so much so that even her former classmates might not recognize her.

After changing into ordinary formal attire at Sumitomo Kyuto's house, the group of four drove a luxury car to the entrance of a Tokyo hotel.

“Sir, please show me your invitation.” A waiter stopped Sumitomo Itsuki.

"Yes, this is my invitation."

Sumitomo handed over the invitation.

Hui knew that from this point onward, the area would be heavily monitored. In order to avoid being discovered by the elites in the monitoring room, Hui made no attempt to hide her thoughts and appeared openly on the monitors.

The waiter received the invitation and paused for a moment, completely unnoticed by the surrounding security guards, guards, guests behind him, and the elites in the monitoring room.

Then, the waiter carefully checked the invitation.

"Excuse me, sir. Please come in!" the waiter said respectfully.

The moment Sumitomo Juto accepted the invitation, the waiter paused for a fleeting instant, though this was unnoticed unless viewed in slow motion with a high-resolution camera.

The waiter himself did not feel any discomfort.

Hui and her group successfully entered the banquet.

Previously, Hui had secretly controlled the waiter, since the invitation listed three people.

So, Hui implanted a false memory in him: in his memory, the invitation listed four people, matching the family situation of Sumitomo Tatsuto in his memory. The people were also the same as in the photo, and had not been replaced.

Walking inside the opulent hotel, Hui controlled the people around her, making them completely unaware that she was being monitored by surveillance cameras.

When the elevator reached the 30th floor, Hui was finally able to sense the 26 elite monitoring personnel in a room deep inside the top floor, at the limit of her ability.

Without seeing the subjects, Hui was unable to precisely manipulate the hundreds of millions of electrical signals and chemical secretions in the brains of the 26 people.

However, some imprecise calculations can be performed, forcibly pausing their thinking and causing them to perform simple actions in an unconscious state.

When the elevator is on the 50th floor...

—Adjusting the capability structure…target group, number of people, environment…pause the thinking…

—New ability formula generation...begins...

—Synchronization...Begins...

—Fine-tuning…

--complete!

"I'll take the hotel's eyes!"

Hui instantly activated her ability, pausing the thoughts of everyone in the monitoring room area.

If someone were to enter the monitoring room at this moment, they would find that all 26 elite intelligence agents remained expressionless, maintaining their original postures with blank stares.

Hui began to walk openly and honestly toward the monitoring room.

Hui altered and erased the memories of everyone she met along the way.

As Hui walked leisurely, she was unaware that a young man in the monitoring room was curious about what a high-society banquet looked like, so he openly observed various wealthy young ladies in a corner of the banquet hall under the guise of conducting an on-site inspection.

He arrived at the monitoring room door a step ahead of Hui, humming a little tune and muttering, "That guy Akagi is really missing out by not going to check on these rich young ladies."

"Those rich heiresses are even prettier than TV stars. We can't touch them, but looking at them is good enough, haha..."

The young man took out a special key and opened the door to the monitoring room.

"Oh, Sakata, what kind of pose are you striking? Haha, that's hilarious!" The young man opened the door and looked at Sakata standing in the room, pretending to be drinking water.

He was still holding the cup in his hand, but all the water inside had spilled onto the ground, and Sakata himself remained motionless, like a statue.

"Alright, Sakata. If you wanted to make me laugh, you've achieved your goal."

The young man patted Sakata on the shoulder as he spoke, but Sakata still didn't move.

At that moment, the young man noticed that everyone in the monitoring room seemed to be frozen in place, as if time had stopped.

Gradually, he also sensed that something was wrong.

"Hey, Akagi, Fujiwara, Okouchi, Kyosaku... if you're trying to scare me, you've succeeded!" The young man nudged Akagi, who was sitting down, with a frightened expression.

"Hey, I've surrendered. You've succeeded. Don't scare me anymore..."

Still, no one made a sound.

The young man was at a loss. Just then, Sakata moved and walked towards the door, seemingly to open it...

Kei Wagatsuma stood in front of the monitoring room door. Since the door could only be opened from the inside with a key, Kei controlled Sakata, who was closest to the door, to open it.

The young man watched as Sakata opened the door, his face blank...

Upon seeing the pretty young woman standing at the door, the young man reflexively said, "This is private property, no outsiders allowed..."

The young man suddenly stopped, looked at Hui who was smiling, and a chill ran through him.

Suddenly, the people who had been forbidden to enter, Sakata opened the door, and behind her stood a group of equally expressionless people...

"You, you, what are you..." the young man asked, his voice trembling slightly.

"Big brother, how come there's an extra one like you! Hey, do you know how troublesome it is to alter memories!"

'I—' The young man suddenly realized that he couldn't move his mouth, no, he couldn't move his whole body, as if his body wasn't his own.

"Big brother, what do you want to say? Just think it in your mind, I can hear you." A melodious voice rang in the young man's mind.

"What is this? What's going on?" the young man blurted out involuntarily.

"It's science, of course! It belongs to the field of quantum science, the scientific term is something like: telepathy. As for how it happened? Well... I've got everyone under my control!"

"How is this possible? This is impossible! You, who are you? What are you trying to do?"

"I just want the older brothers to help the weak and helpless Hui! Don't worry, I won't leave any bad memories for the older brothers, oh, and older sisters. Yeah, I promise."

Looking at Hui, who smiled so sweetly and gently, only one word flashed through the young man's mind: enchantress. Gradually, his gaze became vacant... and eventually, she became one of his colleagues...

Next, Hui strengthened control and instructed these elites to delete or forge their own images in the surveillance source files.

He confirmed that his figure had completely disappeared from the surveillance footage and subsequent surveillance.

After issuing a series of instructions, Hui left the monitoring room and headed towards the banquet hall, where today's main event had begun.

Chapter 18 The Banquet

Kei Agasa entered the banquet hall, but no one noticed her during the banquet.

Several men dressed in formal attire glanced at Kei Agasa, assuming she was just some young lady from a wealthy family, and then continued searching for other "prey".

A huge crystal chandelier hanging from the round dome illuminated the entire venue. The elegant postures, gorgeous dance steps, and reserved smiles all seemed to be measured to perfection, making everything seem so dreamlike.

The low-cut gowns of the ladies were always so dazzling, attracting admiring glances at the gemstone brooches on their dresses, the diamond embellishments on their skirts, the sparkling earrings, and the crystal chandeliers on their heads.

In the intoxicating night, even darkness seemed to be concealed.

The gentlemen's polite invitations to dance elicited blushes from the young ladies, and their arrogant boasting to the uninvited ladies earned them stiff smiles.

So she danced with her partner with even greater enthusiasm, enjoying the envious glances.

The waiters kept their heads down; the splendor was irrelevant to them.

At this moment, the banquet lights suddenly dimmed, and then several bright lights shone on the elegant and poised young woman at the top of the hall.

The girl wore a pure white off-shoulder dress, her beautiful collarbones faintly visible. The fabric of the dress was so white it seemed transparent, reflecting light slightly, like angel wings, yet it wasn't revealing at all.

The skirt's hem curves gracefully from high to low, revealing the girl's long, slender, jade-like legs. The hem is adorned with diamonds, scattered like countless beautiful morning dewdrops.

—It was none other than the star of the banquet, Kana Kujo!

All eyes turned to her, and she gracefully raised her crystal glass to a gesture of thanks: "Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend this banquet. Today is my 16th birthday..."

Kana Kujo delivered her birthday banquet speech in a melodious and graceful voice. She was undoubtedly the focus of the banquet, with proper manners, elegance, and poise, a true model of a well-bred lady.

The 16th birthday party was just a public announcement; in reality, it was also a signal to the outside world that Kana Kujo was of marriageable age.

Yes, that's right.

Another purpose of this banquet was to help Kana Kujo find talented young men.

Therefore, the hall was filled with almost all the young people from Japan's high society, except for one person, Kana Kujo.
