Unspeakable bubbles

"Hahaha, are you trying to make me laugh to death?" Patty burst into laughter, clutching her stomach.

"Oh, damn it, I have something to do. Let's talk another day."

A gust of wind suddenly swept around Wenwen, and in the next moment, she had disappeared without a trace.

"How to do?"

Murata looked at Petty and reminded her, "Wenwen has a nickname, 'Laplace Academy's fastest girl,' so it's unlikely she can catch up."

"No need to chase after her, let her come to us herself."

Petty pointed to what the little girl was holding: "Look what this is?"

"Hey, Wenwen's camera? When did she get it!"

.......................................................................

"I surrender. Give me back my camera, and everything will be fine."

Wenwen arrived even faster than Murata had expected. The three of them had just returned to the Fifth Kind of Contact Club and hadn't even finished a bag of potato chips when the girl burst in.

"Hey, we meet again," Patty greeted her with a smile.

"Hmph, my camera, how did you steal it?"

"Hmm? Wenwen, watch your mouth. The student council confiscated your tools of crime, can that be called 'stealing'?"

Petty shook her head and said calmly, "As for how to confiscate it from you... ha, as long as you can't react in time, let alone a camera, you can take your life in no time."

"hiss"

Wenwen gasped, "Grant, we have no grudge against each other, don't say such terrifying things!"

"Haha, I was just giving you a heads-up."

"Don't even think about stealing the camera back from us. Not only do you think you can't steal it back, but even if you did, Bubble can take it back from you anytime."

"..."

"Hey, all that bragging you were doing just now, it turns out you didn't take my camera at all!" Wenwen said, glaring at Petty.

"Huh? Say it again, do you want the camera or not?"

"Ugh"

"I know, I will cooperate, and I will actively strive to make contributions."

Wenwen raised her hands: "Tell me, how can I 'atone for my sins' and redeem my camera?"

Section 525, Chapter 524: Assistance

"Are you looking for a meteorite?"

Wenwen looked surprised and gestured with her hands: "You mean, one of those really big meteorites that fall from the sky?"

"It doesn't need to be big, small pieces will do."

“However, it must be a fragment of the moon,” Petty added.

"Well, Grant, you might be disappointed."

Wenwen pondered for a moment: "I have reported some news about meteor showers, but the news agency has never done a special feature like 'lunar fragments' in the past years."

"Wenwen, you have the best access to information in the academy."

Petty stared at Wenwen: "Rumors, or gossip, are all fine. You should be able to find one or two things about 'lunar fragments,' right?"

"Grant, you think you can find lunar fragments at the Academy through rumors or gossip? The odds are practically zero."

Wenwen advised, "I think you shouldn't waste your time."

"The important thing is the process. Just think of it as a collaboration between the 'Fifth Kind of Contact Society' and the student union."

"If you put it that way..."

Seeing that Petty didn't seem absolutely determined to find the fragment, Wenwen relented: "Give me three days, and I should be able to find out some information."

"Of course, I can't guarantee the accuracy."

"Bubble, how is it?" Patty asked the little girl.

"Yes, Wenwen, we're waiting for your good news."

...............................................................................

"I've only managed to get two pieces of information related to lunar debris."

Three days later, Wenwen arrived at the activity room of the Fifth Kind of Contact Society right on time.

After finishing her juice without ceremony, she continued, "One rumor is that lunar people visited our academy before, and then-Dean Harris personally received them."

"One more thing, phew, I'm still a bit thirsty, get me another bottle of orange juice!"

"Drink sparingly, I don't have much."

Murata was short of money recently, and he felt it was a huge loss to exchange his juice for such unreliable information.

"Haha, look at how stingy you are, no wonder your club's last decent member ran away the other day."

"I want you to take care of it!"

"Grumpy"

"Ah, delicious! Second piece of news: do you know why our academy can fly?"

Wenwen said mysteriously, "Actually, the Dean accidentally found a fragment of the moon while traveling in his early years, and he..."

"Stop. The reason Lapu-Lapu Academy can fly is not because of any 'moon fragments'."

Petty looked disappointed: "I mean, Wenwen, your information is so unreliable!"

“I haven’t even told you about the even more unreliable ones yet.”

Wenwen shrugged: "It's just gossip, rumors, that's how it is."

"You're not getting your camera back like that."

"You, you're trying to cheat!"

Wenwen glared at Patty: "Grant, don't think I'm easy to bully. If you don't give me back my camera today, I'll make sure there are rumors spreading about you tomorrow!"

"Oh ho, you dare threaten me?"

"Stop arguing, stop arguing."

The young girl stepped in to smooth things over: "Wenwen, those two messages you sent were indeed unacceptable."

"How about this, can you help me come up with a good idea?"

"If your idea is good and can help Bubble, the camera..."

The little girl paused for a moment: "Because you did something against the rules, the camera is temporarily confiscated and cannot be returned to you. But, Bubble can buy you a new one!"

"Huh, a new camera?"

Wenwen doubted her ears: "A camera costs a lot of points. Although you don't lack points, there's no need to waste them like this, right?"

"Not a single bit will be wasted. Bubble really wants to find the fragments of the moon. If Wenwen can give some good advice, Bubble thinks it's all worth it."

"..."

"Bubble, let me ask you a question. Are you willing to spend a lot of points to get information that might not be very reliable?"

Wenwen held up five fingers: "Fifty thousand, are you willing to spend it?"

"What, fifty thousand?"

Murata shook his head repeatedly: "Five thousand, no, five hundred is still not enough..."

“Bubble is willing,” the little girl said calmly.

"it is good!"

Wenwen slammed her hand on the table: "Now we have rich people, a corrupt student council, and my 'eagle eyes' here. We can give it a try."

Ignoring Petty's follow-up question, "What do you mean by a corrupt student council?" Wenwen said seriously, "I have an idea, let me tell you."

"With the student council as your guarantor, Bubble, you'll be collecting information about 'lunar fragments' from all teachers and students across the school, with a reward of 50,000 points!"

“There’s a mailbox in front of the student council. If you want points, just write your message and name on a piece of paper and put it in.”

"Of course, we won't give points to everyone. The bounty will last for a month, and we'll select the three most reliable pieces of information at the end."

"If it turns out to be all fake news, each person will receive five thousand."

"What if, just what if there's real news, and we even find the fragments along the way..."

"We'll give 50,000 points to the person who provided the information!"

"..."

"Hey everyone, don't stay silent! What do you think of my suggestion?"

"That's really good. It seems you've thought about it carefully beforehand."

After praising them, Petty added, "Whether the three of them split the 15,000 or each person takes all 50,000, I don't think we can reveal the information and names they provide."

"Won't anyone suspect us of pocketing the points?" Murata asked.

"That's why the student union needs to vouch for us; the student union does have some credibility."

Wenwen looked at Patty with great surprise: "Grant, I'm impressed. You've thought of things much more thoroughly."

"Ha, do you need to tell me? But what did you mean by 'eagle eyes' before?"

"It means I'll help too."

Wenwen smiled and said, "Leave the task of selecting the three most reliable messages from all the messages received by the student council during the preliminary selection process to me."

"If I trade in my old camera for a new one, I'll be the one who benefits no matter what."

Wenwen looked at the little girl and said, "How about that? Compared to you guys, I'm a 'professional' at filtering information."

"Okay." The little girl nodded with a smile.
