In front of my sight, behind the curtains in the corner, there was a woman lying.

As if it had been there since the beginning.

But Coco didn't notice.

Of course, Coco won’t find out.

……

"Was it Lily who let her in last night?"

El bent down and examined the woman's belongings.

Of course, nothing was found.

Apart from a small knife and a damaged gem, all that was left was a tight black bodysuit.

Ai'er blushed and covered herself with clothes.

"You're not wearing anything underneath..."

The woman had lost consciousness.

So no matter how El and Lily manipulate her, she will not resist.

The knife has magical properties, so it is very convenient to use it as a reference for casting spells. The gem seems to have other functions besides increasing magic power, but now it is damaged and nothing can be seen.

Moreover, it is more like self-destructive.

Did they find out that the master had lost consciousness...?

"Yeah." Lily nodded.

"She was a little weird, so I let her in."

Although it was very self-willed, Ai'er couldn't help but say "Well done Lily" in her heart.

As expected, I feel relieved when Lily is around...even though I am worried about other things.

Elle listened to Lily describe in detail what happened last night.

At that time, El said goodbye to a human cub and went into the window.

At first glance, I saw Lily, who was lying on the bed with her eyes open, looking a little lost, and this woman who was lying on the ground for no apparent reason.

Elle admitted that she was shocked at the time.

Lily seemed to have temporarily blocked Coco's hearing so that Coco would not be woken up.

If the little orc knew that someone almost threatened his life, he would definitely feel a lot of pressure.

Lily told Elle that Coco was very tired.

Therefore, both of them decided to hide this matter from Coco for the time being.

"Are you here to see Professor Morris?"

Ai'er muttered to herself and gritted her teeth.

"I'll go confront that evil professor later... By the way, did Lily ask anything else?"

Lily looked visibly more disappointed when she heard Elle's question.

Ai'er panicked for a moment and hurried to comfort her:

"It's okay, Lily has done a great job. It doesn't matter if I didn't ask. It's better to say that Lily did a much better job than me..."

"Failed."

Lily shook her head.

"Failed? What failed?"

Ai'er was a little confused.

Lily said: "Hint, failed."

Ai'er was stunned.

Lily recalled the scene of yesterday.

The first few questions were just a prelude to getting to the main topic.

Guiding a woman to reply is only the first step.

However, just as Lily was about to pull the woman into the well-prepared trap.

The woman lost consciousness.

"【Fuse mechanism】...huh..." Ai'er asked back.

Lily nodded.

After the circuit breaker mechanism, the thinking is forced to break the circuit.

When will he wake up... No one knows.

"Can Lily crack it?" asked Al.

Lily shook her head, which was rare:

"That's a [deadlock]."

Ai'er was stunned.

"Deadlock...huh?"

Ai'er muttered to herself.

The atmosphere in the room fell into a gloomy mood.

Ai'er looked at the woman lying in the corner again.

Including the master of the ritual.

No one could wake the woman up.

……

Maybe Al had enough clues.

Lily might not understand.

But Al knew it very well.

Human technology is destined to insulate them from spiritual magic.

Only "superior races" have the ability to set up fuse mechanisms or even deadlocks in women's minds.

That may even be a technological secret of some advanced races.

The other party would not be an ordinary advanced race.

Al knocked on Professor Morris's door.

116. Divergent Cooperation

Sure enough, here it is.

The young man was leaning on his desk—just leaning, with the cup steaming in his hand.

Maurice looked up at Al.

"Hey, Miss Elle."

Morris put the cup on the table, stepped aside, and motioned for Al to sit on the sofa.

It was as if this man knew from the beginning that Ai'er would come.

Ai'er frowned:

"Professor Morris, your university... is quite interesting."

"I wonder what is the matter with Miss Ai'er coming here this time?"

"It's okay, it's just that the environment where I live is a bit noisy. Anyone could try to break in."

Ai Er suppressed her anger and asked:

"Professor... when you arranged accommodation for us, didn't you have anything to explain to us? At least last night, someone broke in and asked for you. If you say it clearly... I have considerable doubts about the accommodation the professor arranged for us."

The two looked at each other.

Morris said, "I deeply apologize for not explaining that. Miss Elle guessed correctly... It was used as a faculty dormitory, and it was also where I lived at first."

“Almost everyone knows about it.”

"Only people I know and am familiar with."

"It's not a secret."

"I apologize for not making that clear."

"It's not an apology... but you didn't say it on purpose, right?"

The two were silent.

"professor."

Ai Er did not choose to sit down, but walked straight to Professor Morris:

"…What are you hiding from us?"

Morris looked into Al's azure eyes.

This girl is not someone who can be easily fooled.

Morris said, "You might as well tell me what happened yesterday."

"I'm the one asking you now, not you."

"...If you suspect that I am setting a trap for you, there is no need to do so. It will not benefit us to be enemies with you." Morris said, "But it doesn't hurt to tell Miss Elle. That is indeed the address where I stayed before...but that's all."

"…Then, Professor Morris, why did you change the location of your accommodation?"
