She picked up the comb, sat in front of the dressing table, and looked at the mirror. She found that the person in the mirror looked excited, with bright eyes and eyebrows, as if expecting something exciting.

Something is not right, she thought to herself, something is not right with her.

She put the comb aside, frowned, and thought silently.

Am I overreacting?

As the saint of Kjerag, shouldn't she be more serious and steady? Why does she act like a cheerful little girl instead? Is there something wrong with her?

It doesn’t seem to be the case. We should change our thinking.

I did not use the identity of a saint to contact Miss Olisia. Until now, the deepest information the other party knew was that I was SilverAsh's sister.

Isn't it what she has always been pursuing to not be burdened by the title of saint? Why is she still questioning it?

What's more, after today, she will have to spend most of her time on the Holy Mountain, and will no longer have a large block of time to chat with him before the end of the ceremony.

Yes, everything is reasonable and I am in a normal state. I am in a hurry to go there just to continue the topic that I didn't finish last night.

Last night, the last thing she and Miss Olicia talked about was Shelagh's modern education. She still had some questions to ask, but unfortunately the clock had already struck ten, so in order not to disturb the other person's rest, she had to say goodbye and leave.

Miss Hatsuyuki comforted herself while dressing in front of the mirror. She didn't know why, but she always felt a little guilty. Before leaving, she suddenly remembered that Miss Olicia already had a girlfriend.

A slight feeling of discomfort appeared in my heart, but it was quickly covered up by a strange excitement.

Even though they had discussed and analyzed the matter for a long time yesterday and described it as a common phenomenon, she still felt inexplicably excited when she thought about the other person having a special female friend.

Miss Olicia was right, she thought, she was just a curiosity hunter, but the other party also didn't take into account that she was not a curiosity hunter for everyone.

Some people are so boring that they don't even bother to look at the secret even if it's right in front of them. But Miss Olicia is different. All she needs to do is a few casual words. No, no, she just needs to stand there and do nothing to be attractive enough. It's like when they first met. She just stood upstairs and looked downstairs, and she found that she fell in love with him.

She was sure that Miss Olicia also liked her, because their conversation was very harmonious, and she was regarded as someone with whom she could communicate deeply, but she concealed her identity...

That didn't matter, she just didn't say it out loud. There were a lot of hints in her words, and Miss Olicia was so smart that she could probably guess it easily.

Miss Hatsuyuki found that she had a lot on her mind today, but all of them were related to Miss Olicia whom she was going to meet. She was immersed in her thoughts and slowly walked towards the directorate of Kalan Trading.

When Miss Xue arrived, Bai Lang was sitting on the sofa busy with work, her eyes fixed on the laptop. On the computer screen were various factory photos and text materials, some of which were sent by Miss Razer, and some of which she collected herself after connecting to the intercity network of Kalan City.

After hearing the knock on the door, Miss White Wolf quickly closed the file, opened the main interface of the music player, and then walked over to open the door.

In fact, collecting public information is not something shameful. The reason why Miss White Wolf does this is somewhat because she is more meticulous and sensitive.

Take herself for example. She doesn't care if others investigate Bingshi's business intelligence, but if others list this information in front of her, she will feel uncomfortable, as if she is offended. Similarly, she is unwilling to do the same thing in front of Miss Chuxue.

"Good morning." Miss Hatsuyuki waved to Bailang who came to open the door, and looked down, "Hey, why are you wearing slippers?"

Miss White Wolf blushed, realizing that her little secret of staying in her room was about to be exposed: "It's cold outside, I don't plan to go out."

Miss Chuxue said happily, "I was afraid that you would go out and leave me with nothing. The weather is nice today, are you really not going to go out and take a look? Brother has put a lot of thought into making this a tourist city."

"No, Kalan City has a good tourism project. If I come here in the summer, I will go out and see it."

"I heard that in the north of Ursus, it is also very cold in winter."

"So whenever it's winter, I stay in my room every day and don't go out unless I can."

"What are you doing in your room? Won't you be bored?"

"It's not boring. I sleep when I'm sleepy and read books or use the computer when I wake up."

When Miss Bailang spoke, she pointed to the laptop on the coffee table. When Miss Chuxue saw the computer, her eyes lit up and she looked very surprised.

"Is this a portable computer?" Miss Hatsuyuki's tone was a little stiff when she read the name.

"Yeah, it's very common and very useful equipment."

"It's not common. The computers in the board of directors are all big. I use them often. This kind of small one is only easy to buy in Columbia."

"Shelagh didn't?"

"Kalan Trade doesn't sell this because people here won't buy such sophisticated equipment. They would rather spend a little money to buy a TV or radio."

It seems that it will take some time for it to become popular, Miss White Wolf thought. She once again noticed Chuxue's gaze and felt the envy and desire in it.

"You like it?" she asked.

"A little bit. Every time I use a computer, I have to run to the workroom in the directorate, but it can be used directly in my room, and it looks beautiful."

"Do you like this silver-gray color combination?" Miss White Wolf smiled. She realized that this color combination had the same name as the other person's brother and found it very interesting.

"Well, it looks very...technical."

Hatsuyuki blushed after saying this.

Miss White Wolf held her chin up and looked into the other person's eyes with a smile: "Then can I take you there?"

"Send...send me?"

"There's a spare machine on the aircraft. I'll clear the files away when the time comes, and I'll give this to you."

"No, no, don't." Chu Xue shook her head as if she had just woken up from a dream, "This is yours, it will cause you trouble."

"I don't think it's a bother at all. Are you disgusted by the fact that I've used it before? The spare one is new, but it's black. You can take that one if you want."

"No." Miss Chuxue said anxiously with a red face, "I don't mind at all, I want this one, I, I like its color."

"Sure. Wait a minute. I heard that during the National Day of Religion, the Kjerag people will give each other gifts. This is your National Day gift!"

Miss White Wolf happily announced the result, and experienced the joy of helping others fulfill their small wishes. She was so happy that she wanted to wag her tail.

Chapter 2023: The Illusion of Hostility04-11-12 00:03:

Driven by a happy mood, Miss White Wolf explained in detail to Chuxue how to operate the portable computer, and then pushed the device in front of her.

"You come and give it a try."

"Really, is it really okay?"

Miss Hatsuyuki looked at the delicate electronic device in front of her, then at Bailang, and felt nervous. She always felt that she might break the computer.

"Of course, it's yours. I'm just keeping it with me for a few days."

Miss White Wolf smiled and blinked. Seeing that Chuxue was still hesitant, she gently grabbed her hand and placed it on the keyboard, comforting her: "Its power supply voltage is very low, feel free to use it, it will definitely not hurt you."

Miss Hatsuyuki did not hear what Bailang said. From the moment her hand was grabbed, her brain went through a series of complex reactions as if it had been electrocuted.

The most intuitive feeling she had was a soft and warm touch. Then, she realized that their actions were quite intimate, and her heart began to surge with joy.

Then she remembered that Miss Olivia liked girls, and her joy turned into a strange excitement and excitement, and her cheeks might have turned red.

At the peak of her excitement, she suddenly remembered that Miss Olivia had a girlfriend, and she immediately calmed down as if a basin of ice water was poured on her.

At the same time, she developed a strong curiosity about Miss Olicia's girlfriend, and her mind seemed to return to its previous state of curiosity.

In a trance, her right hand on the computer accidentally touched a key, and then a melodious humming sounded in the room.

"You clicked on the music player." Miss White Wolf smiled, "This is Miss Kong's song."

"Is it that famous stewardess?"

"It's her."

"You can tell it's her song right away?"

"Yeah, I'm used to hearing it."

Hatsuyuki suddenly had a strange thought. Was Sora Miss Olicia's girlfriend? Judging from her appearance, she probably listened to these songs often. The romance between the behind-the-scenes noble and the idol musician was also a plot that would be used in modern scripts.

"Do you know the stewardess in person? I mean in real life," she asked with special thoughts in mind.

As she expected, Miss Olicia nodded: "I know her."

"Then you are..."

"We just met at Longmen. We didn't talk much. The stewardess was busy on tour, so it was impossible for us to have much contact. We only met because we had mutual friends."

At this point, Miss White Wolf recalled the few times she had met Kong. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that Miss Kong seemed to be hostile to her, especially the last time they met.

At that time, she was still carrying out delivery tasks with her colleagues from Penguin Logistics.

It was an afternoon, Angel and Croissant got out of the car to pick up the goods. She was sitting in the passenger seat feeling sleepy, and Texas next to her silently took out a chocolate pocky, turned his head and asked her if she wanted one. She said yes in a daze, so Texas took out one and fed it into her mouth.

Then the stewardess suddenly appeared with Exia, and everyone had a pleasant conversation, but she always felt that the stewardess looked at her in a strange way.

Maybe it was just an illusion. The sun was shining brightly that afternoon and she had been busy without taking a nap, so it was normal for her to be sleepy and have illusions.

Seeing that Miss Olicia denied it, Hatsuyuki felt it was a pity. She believed that if someone as unique as Miss Kong appeared in the other party's romantic history, it would be very, very interesting.

"So are you a fan of the stewardess?" she asked again.

"Not really. I really like the works of Miss Kong, but this kind of liking is directed at the works themselves. It's different from the cheering crowds at the concert. I also like the works of the bands Kongluo and Heisen."

"So, there's only liking, but no worship?"

"Yes, I think I am the same with the gods. I only have awe and maybe some curiosity, but no worship, not at all. So, I am not suitable to go to the holy mountain to watch the ceremony. It is better for me to stay in the room."

Miss White Wolf made a sudden request to Chu Xue with a wonderful twist.

"No." Miss Hatsuyuki smiled, "You are the most suitable one, you must go."

"It's cold in the mountains." Miss White Wolf said pitifully.

"I'll bring you some clothes, and..." Miss Hatsuyuki said mysteriously, "As long as you participate in the ceremony, the Kjerag people will treat you as one of their own."

"One of our own... er, anything special?"

"Of course I have. Let me tell you, my brother is very good at negotiating. He completely overpowers others with his momentum, but he has a weakness. He is embarrassed to bully his own people. So there will definitely be benefits for you to go, and there are more than just negotiations. What do you think, do you want to go?"

Although her intentions were good, Miss Hatsuyuki felt like a bad guy who was both coaxing and deceiving.

"Go." Miss White Wolf changed her mind again. For the sake of serious matters, she was still willing to work hard.

Chuxue narrowed her eyes and looked at Miss Olicia's expression, which was seven parts determination and three parts entanglement. She suddenly felt that it was very cute. She wanted to reach out and touch her.

As a saint, she certainly couldn't control herself. She forced herself to find a topic to cover up her abnormal emotions: "By the way, didn't we talk about Kjerag's education yesterday?"

"seems like it."

"Then I thought of a question."

"You said."

Miss Hatsuyuki hesitated for a moment and said, "I found that in the modern education of the outside world, there is a very important factor that both Columbians and Victorians attach great importance to, and that is called 'science'."

Miss White Wolf had a feeling that she was about to face a tough challenge.

As expected, Miss Hatsuyuki complained in great distress:

"Kjerag must develop science and technology education, but the state religion seems to be contrary to these things. I read a lot of books outside and found that people outside are used to explaining everything with science. I can also vaguely feel that they look down on religion."

"They think that believing in religion is blind and backward, right?" Miss White Wolf asked based on her understanding.

"Almost." Chu Xue nodded.

"They believe that science is omnipotent and that only science can explain everything? That science is the only thing that is progressive?"

"Ah."

"If so, it means that they are worshipping 'science' in the form of blindly following religion. They are not making progress. They are just using contempt for religion to consolidate their arrogance and cover up the emptiness and ignorance of their own souls."

"'Science' is never something to be worshipped, and 'religion' never means blind obedience or backwardness."

Miss Hatsuyuki opened her eyes wide in surprise, her burning gaze fixed on Miss Olicia. She didn't quite understand why this person always attracted her and made her unable to take her eyes off her?

Chapter 2023: Ways to Understand the World04-12-12 00:03:

Miss White Wolf took out a piece of paper and pounced on the table. She wrote the words "primitive worship" on the first line, then pointed an arrow to the second line and wrote "science and religion".

"According to existing historical clues, tens of thousands of years ago, various forms of primitive worship prevailed on earth. As civilization continued to develop and people's cognitive systems changed, religious and scientific consciousness emerged one after another."

"My idea is that science and religion are both ways of understanding the world, just like tens of thousands of years ago, totems symbolizing primitive worship were the way all ancient humans understood the world. It's just that people today are divided into two factions."

Then she pulled an arrow from Science and Religion, pointed it to the third row, and drew a big question mark.

“Science and religion once overthrew primitive worship, so I think it is not impossible that one day in the future, a new form of consciousness will overthrow science and religion and occupy the pinnacle of human thought in an absolute manner.”

Chu Xue stared blankly at Miss Bai Lang's question mark, thinking that the other party's idea was too incredible. She held her chin and said in a daze: "It sounds unbelievable. I saw someone say that science and religion complement each other and are everything in human thought. Is there really something beyond science and religion?"

Miss White Wolf thought and said, "Let's think according to your current logic. If you were to go back tens of thousands of years, you would find that people believed that totem belief was everything and would never believe that there was anything beyond it. Similarly, looking at the past today is like looking at today in the future. New forms of consciousness may exist, but for us now, they are temporarily unknowable."

"I know a researcher named Mel. She once described a vision of an era of pure intelligent mechanization during a casual chat. Humans no longer have flesh and blood, but are made up of precision machines. Even thoughts can be traced back to certain changes in matter. If that day really comes, will a new form of consciousness appear?"

"Or let's think in another way. There have always been mysterious legends about the sea circulating in the world. Obscure and mysterious prophecy books have been unearthed in ancient Iberian monuments. If there really are enemies in the sea that humans cannot understand or fight against, and they suddenly walk ashore one day and bring destruction to human civilization, if there are embers left after the destruction, will a new form of consciousness emerge?"
