Robert: Damn it, all of this was supposed to be mine, mine! Think of all the effort I put in to become a board member, all the money and energy I poured into it, and you, Hudson, took it all away! I... I hate it!!!

"What?! You want to go to GTI to study for a while? No, Claire, do you know how appalling your behavior is?"

Demulan is very troubled right now, so much so that she doesn't know how to deal with Claire in front of her.

Early this morning, Claire came running over to tell me that someone from GTI had invited her to study at the Secret Service for a while. Upon hearing this, Demulan immediately froze in his seat.

Demulan: No, Claire, aren't you one of us from Hafk? How could you possibly think of going to GTI? And don't think I don't know, your real intention in going to GTI to learn is to go and compete with Xiao Hao!

"Yes, this is a message from Luna, Ms. Demulan. Well, Luna is my best friend, and it seems she's run into some trouble. I figured since you're still in a cold war with the Hudson board, it doesn't seem like things will come to a head anytime soon. So, I think it wouldn't hurt for me to go there for a while."

Claire chuckled in front of Demulan. She had only seen the news when she woke up that morning. Although she didn't know what had gotten into Luna that made her want to stay at GTI for a while, Claire said that if she could see Xiao Hao every day, she would have no problem with it!

Claire: Hehehe, and if we look at it from another perspective, anyway, after I repay my favors with Hafk, I'll eventually go there to live with Luna and Xiao Hao. So, isn't this just getting used to life ahead of time? Hehehe.

Looking at the "traitor" in front of her, Demulan had the thought of firing her, but the idea didn't last more than two seconds before she dismissed it. No, that's absolutely not going to do.

If I fire Claire now, wouldn't she have a legitimate reason to go and find Xiao Hao? Wouldn't that mean I've given my Kami another formidable opponent?

Looking at Claire's impressive "assets" in front of him, Demulan knew he absolutely could not fire this "excellent employee," Claire. And it wasn't just that he couldn't do it; if that bastard Hudson wanted to lay a hand on Claire...

DeMullan said he would appear in front of Hudson the next second and point his M700 directly at his head.

"Okay... alright then, did they say how long you'll be going for training this time?"

After thinking for a long time, Demulan squeezed out these words with a conflicted expression. After saying these words, Demulan felt his blood pressure rise.

Chapter 678 You're going to GTI? (2)

"Huh? How long? Hehe, Ms. Demulan, I really don't know, but Luna seemed quite eager when she called me, so she'll probably stay a little longer, right?"

Claire smiled sheepishly and answered honestly, but Demulan's headache only worsened after hearing her reply.

"Claire, I feel it's very necessary for me to tell you about the current situation at our space base."

Demulan didn't intend to say anything more to Claire. She had known Claire for quite some time and knew her fairly well.

This young girl couldn't seem to understand the hidden meanings in my words. I was really afraid that if I was polite to her, she would actually be impolite.

Demulan: Now that's what you call a true warrior. Daisy always likes to talk about me, but it's only because she hasn't met Claire yet. Otherwise, she would definitely praise me for being so perceptive.

"Don't worry, Ms. Demuren. Even if I go to GTI to study, I will not forget that I am now an employee of Hafk. You can rest assured about that."

Seeing the conflicted expression on Desmulan's face, Claire immediately saluted him and said in a firm voice:

“If you need me, Ms. Demouran, I, Claire, am always ready to return and stand by. I will absolutely not let that Hudson fellow’s evil scheme succeed.”

Seeing that Claire had said so, Demulan had no choice but to sigh and agree to Claire's request.

Demulan: Sigh, where will my Cammy rank now? I finally managed to improve her relationship with Xiao Hao after all this time, but now everyone else has surpassed my Cammy.

Demulan was thinking that no matter what, his own Camille's progress should surpass Claire's, since Claire and Xiao Hao hadn't had much contact lately. The last time Xiao Hao went to Babel, Claire couldn't go because she had a mission.

Demulan: I thought Claire would be a safety net, but I was too naive. This isn't a shortcut; it's a straight line opened up for her all the way to Xiao Hao.

This was because Demulan was unaware that Claire had already slept with Xiao Hao. If Demulan found out about this, he would likely lose sleep and start trying to get his own Camie into Xiao Hao's bed as well.

Daisy: Um... But seriously, are you sure your Kamie won't just faint? Do you really think Xiao Hao would do anything to your Kamie? Forget about it, sis. Your primary goal right now is to make sure your Kamie doesn't faint while she's being intimate with Xiao Hao, okay?

When Claire saw that Demulan had approved the matter, she smiled and waved goodbye to Demulan before heading out to pack some things for her dorm room and set off.

After arriving in her room, Claire took out her phone and called Luna directly:

"Hey! I've got everything sorted out here, Luna. When are you planning to come pick me up?"

Luna, who was still at the Special Operations Department, was also amazed by Claire's efficiency. She had asked Deep Blue that morning if Claire could come to the Special Operations Department to help her, and only after Deep Blue agreed did Luna contact Claire to inquire about her.

"How much time has passed? It hasn't even been two hours, and you're already telling yourself you've got it all sorted out? When did Demulan become so kind?" Luna asked, somewhat puzzled.

"No? Claire, are you sure you've got it sorted out? Didn't Desmoulins make any other demands? He just agreed to let you go like that?"

Claire was somewhat puzzled when Luna asked this question on the other end of the phone. Hmm? All she did was go to Ms. Demulan to tell her that she was going to the Special Operations Department for some training. She hadn't told Ms. Demulan that she actually planned to go see Xiao Hao. Why was she objecting?

Claire: Hehehe, that's why I'm so smart. If I had said what I really thought, I don't think Ms. Desmoulins would have agreed. But it doesn't matter. If she doesn't agree, I'll just resign. Anyway, I feel like I've done enough here these past few months.

"Don't worry, Luna. When are you coming to pick me up? I'll just pack a few things and be done. Let me check the time first... If you come quickly, I feel like I could even mooch a meal at your place!"

Hearing Claire's still carefree voice on the other end of the phone, Luna could only shake her head helplessly. Looking at Zhang Hao, who was still being "imprisoned" by Mai Xiaowen, Luna's eyes darkened.

Luna: Xiao Hao, don't worry, I'll go find my helper right now. I'll be able to rescue you soon. You must have been bewitched by Mai Xiaowen's "evil" power. Once I bring Claire over, I'll have the strength to suppress Mai Xiaowen.

However, in the near future, Luna also felt extremely regretful for her absurd decision. When she thought about her thoughts today, Luna wanted to slap herself a few times.

"Deep Blue, Claire has taken care of everything. I'm going to pick her up now, so I might be a little late. You guys eat first."

After greeting Shenlan, Luna turned to Zhang Hao and said:

"Xiao Hao, do you want to come with me to pick someone up? Your sister Claire is coming soon too!"

Zhang Hao was comfortably nestled in Mai Xiaowen's soft embrace when he heard Luna say that Claire was coming soon, and he planned to go with Luna to pick her up.

Just as Zhang Hao was about to get up and leave this "warmth," Mai Xiaowen forcefully sealed him back in. After confirming that Xiao Hao's head was securely fixed, she taunted Luna, saying:

"Go ahead, go ahead, what's the point of having Xiao Hao to pick someone up? Can't you see that Xiao Hao is really enjoying his time alone with me, Xiaowen? You can handle picking someone up by yourself!"

Chapter 679 Claire: Xiao Hao, I'm here (1)

Just as Zhang Hao was about to speak up and say that he also wanted to go and pick up the person, Mai Xiaowen reached out and covered his mouth, leaving him only able to make helpless muffled sounds.

Seeing this, Luna, unusually, didn't argue with Mai Xiaowen. After narrowing her eyes, she turned and walked out alone.

Anyway, Mai Xiaowen won't be able to cause trouble for long, so let's let her get a little cocky in the Special Operations Department for now.

When Claire arrives, I'll just have to sacrifice a little, reduce my share slightly, and form an alliance with Claire.

Luna: With my ultimate skills and Claire's ultimate stats, hehehe, Mai Xiaowen, just you wait, you won't be able to keep jumping around for long. Cherish the time you have with Xiao Hao now, in about an hour, you won't even have anyone to cry to.

Mai Xiaowen was also surprised that Luna seemed like a completely different person, ignoring her provocation. In Mai Xiaowen's original plan, if Luna said a few more words, she was going to release Xiao Hao.

But this time, seeing Luna's extremely abnormal behavior, Mai Xiaowen's sixth sense began to frantically sound alarm bells.

Mai Xiaowen: No, no, no, there's a big problem with that. Look at Luna, she acts like she's got me figured out. Where does her confidence come from? Is it from Claire?

Mai Xiaowen immediately began to recall the information about Claire. Although she hadn't read through all of her information, she had a general understanding of the situation, which was basically what Luna had mentioned before.

"I remember in Hafk's personnel evaluation file, Claire was described as a complete idiot? Luna wants to use this idiot to deal with me? Isn't that looking down on me?"

Zhang Hao, who had given up struggling in Mai Xiaowen's arms, recalled the size of her body back then, which was no less than that of Xiaowen now, and couldn't help but fantasize about the days when Claire came to visit.

Zhang Hao: Ah... You know, the triangles in the Special Operations Unit weren't stable before. When Claire comes over... I don't even want to think about how chaotic it will be.

After releasing Zhang Hao, whom she had been "confining" in her arms, Mai Xiaowen planned to go upstairs to take another look at Claire's personal information. She had actually forgotten to give her the most important details: her measurements.

Mai Xiaowen: Damn it, I never considered Claire as my enemy before, but now this has happened. I suspect that Luna's advantage is Claire's stats.

But Mai Xiaowen looked down at herself. Well, she couldn't even see her own feet anymore, so what was she afraid of? Even if Claire passed by, she wouldn't panic. After all, she had everything she needed! She had the mechanics and the controls.

Thinking back to the days when she painstakingly tried to win over Xiao Hao and increase his affection, Mai Xiaowen couldn't help but feel sorry for herself. What a miserable life she had been living back then! Not only did she have to fight against Zoya, a monster with high stats in the early game, but she also had to be careful of Luna sneaking up on her base.

Mai Xiaowen: God knows how I lived before. It was really like being surrounded by wolves in front and tigers behind. Especially when I was a little stronger in the middle of the game, I was punished by these two hateful guys working together. My peak period! Damn it, if they had the guts, they would have challenged me one-on-one back then. None of them could beat me.

After seeing Mai Xiaowen go upstairs, Wei Long and Roy approached Zhang Hao and asked him about the news concerning Claire.

It should be noted that the impression that the people in the Special Operations Department had of this girl named Claire was still the one they had seen at Tide Prison. At that time, Xiao Hao had come to the scene with her. As for the other information, the others did not directly inquire about her information like Mai Xiaowen did, but learned about it from Luna.

"Sister Claire? Well... you'll only know what she's like once you've met her. If you asked me to describe her now, I really couldn't!"

Zhang Hao rested his chin on his hand, trying to organize his thoughts on how to describe Claire to them. After thinking for a while, he gave up, realizing he really didn't know how to describe Claire's positive and sunny personality.

"Anyway, Luna is going to pick someone up now, and you'll all get to know each other eventually, so there's no rush to find out right now."

After hearing what Zhang Hao said, Wei Long and Roy nodded in agreement. What Xiao Hao said did make some sense. Anyway, this person wasn't going to run away. Besides, with Roy around, even if the other person was socially awkward, Roy could still chat with her freely.

Roy: Hehehe, so I've always said that I have the potential to be a psychologist, but every time I get mocked by Zoya. I think she's just afraid that I'll take her place.

Zoya: Hmph, if I really put this psychological counseling job on you, then I'm afraid only you yourself won't have any psychological problems. What you're doing isn't psychological counseling, it's just giving people a bunch of useless nonsense ideas. And psychological counseling isn't just chatting. You should go get a certificate first before you start talking.

The scene shifts to Claire. Carrying a backpack and a suitcase, Claire wandered around the outside of the space base alone. After shaking off Hudson's spies, Claire arrived at the place she had arranged to meet Luna and sat quietly on the sand, waiting for Luna to come and pick her up.

"Sigh, judging by the time, Luna should be arriving soon. I'm actually a little excited, hehe. I wonder if Xiao Hao will come to pick me up too. If he does, that would be great, but if he doesn't, he must be preparing a surprise for me at the Special Operations Department!"

Claire couldn't stop smiling as she thought about seeing Luna and Xiao Hao, whom she hadn't seen in a long time.

Chapter 680 Claire: Xiao Hao, I'm here (2)

Ugh!!

Just as Claire was lost in her daydreams, she heard the sound of a car approaching from not far away.

"Phew, they're finally here! Luckily, they didn't keep me waiting too long. I can still make it over for lunch. Hmm... just thinking about not having to eat in the cafeteria makes me happy!"

As the car stopped in front of Claire, Luna rolled down her window as well.

"Get on the bus! What are you doing sitting on the floor? Isn't your butt burning?"

Luna looked at Claire, who was sitting on the ground staring blankly at her, and patted the car door to urge her on.

"Oh, here you are! Wait a minute, why aren't you coming down to help me with my luggage? Aren't we best friends anymore?"

Claire struggled to her feet, then tossed her packed luggage onto the back seat of the car before getting into the passenger seat.

Looking at Luna's calm expression, a stark contrast to the hurried phone call she'd made that morning, Claire was completely bewildered. What was going on? Wasn't she in a real hurry on the phone? Why did she seem so unhurried now that they were face to face?

"Hey Luna, what's wrong with you? This morning I thought you'd been bullied, you sounded so anxious, I immediately ran to ask Ms. Demulan for leave, but now... why do you seem so unconcerned?"

Luna calmly responded to this:

"I'm in a hurry because I really need your help right now. I'm not in a hurry because you're sitting right next to me. So why would I be in a hurry?"

Upon hearing this, Claire exclaimed, "Huh?! That does make sense!" and nodded. Then, looking at Luna who was still driving, she put on a serious expression and asked:

"Hey Luna, what's got you in such a hurry to see me again? Can I hang out with Xiao Hao when I'm free? Do you guys have some really difficult mission this time?"

Seeing Claire's eager expression, Luna couldn't help but show a relieved look. Claire was still as simple-minded as ever. In that case, after she and Claire dealt a good blow to Mai Xiaowen, she would be able to take more when dividing up Xiao Hao.

"I called you here today to join forces with me and take Xiao Hao away."

When Claire heard Luna's answer, she was about to laugh and tell her not to joke with her, but when she saw Luna's serious eyes, Claire also wiped the smile off her face.
