Dorothy slept until the afternoon before waking up. She turned over silently and lay on her back, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar ceiling above her head. After staring at the ceiling for a while, she called up the system panel and carefully read the task description again.

There was no way, there were too few details about the task, after all, it was Dorothy's first time to handle such a system task alone. In fact, she still had many questions about this vest system that she had not figured out these days.

No matter why "Akutagawa" came to her at that time, or why the task was only issued after the vest was drawn, and the content of the task issued seemed to be closely related to the identity of the vest.

Even if she is easy to accept the facts, she still needs to be skeptical. At that time, Unlucky Pop said that he seemed to have signed a contract with the system. Does this reveal that the vest character is not just a vest?

And the mission content is also.

Just like this mission, why did the system and Bujibopu suddenly lose connection?

"Ah, I don't understand." Dorothy casually glanced at the system panel. The panel was still in a blocked state. There was no point in looking at it, so Dorothy closed the panel. Then she stood up and walked towards the washroom.

Okay, while brushing your teeth, start thinking carefully. If the mission of the world's enemy is not completed, it means that there are other world's enemies existing in this world.

"Knock, knock." While Dorothy was brushing her teeth and thinking, someone knocked on the door of her room. Dorothy quickly brushed her teeth and washed her face with water, then took a towel and opened the door of her room. After opening the door, the person who came was Ah Fu.

"Good afternoon, Miss Unlucky Pope. How was your rest?" Alfu greeted Dorothy.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Alfu, I had a good rest." Dorothy also responded politely.

"It's my honor to make you feel comfortable, Miss Unlucky Pope. The master asked me to give you an invitation." Alfu handed Dorothy an invitation that looked very high-end, and then said, "The master also said that the host of this banquet may have a deeper connection with the person you have been investigating recently, and may know what you want to investigate."

"Thank you for the information, and thank you Mr. Wayne for your generous help, huh? By the way, where is Mr. Wayne?" Dorothy first thanked Alfred and Bruce verbally, and then asked about Bruce's whereabouts.

"You will meet the young master at the banquet."

This time the banquet did not start in the evening, but in the afternoon, so there was still an hour before the banquet started. Before the banquet started, many people had already started chatting in the hotel where the banquet was held.

Bruce was one of them. He looked at the beauties with one hand and held a glass of wine with the other. He talked to various entrepreneurs with a slightly frivolous but elegant smile on his face.

The content of their conversation was not any thought-provoking corporate content, but some entertainment events during this period or gossip about each other. Of course, when it comes to gossip, Bruce Wayne has the most gossip.

It’s better not to mention the content of these gossips.

In this way, the groups of people talked about their own things for an hour until the banquet began.

Bruce, who was drinking, had his eyes darkened. On the surface, he still seemed to be chatting happily with others, but deep down he was thinking over and over again.

He thought about the information he had already learned, the man that Buji Pop mentioned this morning. He searched for it based on the known information. Coincidentally, he really found a person who was very similar to the one Buji Pop mentioned, and he was also the organizer of today's banquet.

But if the woman named Manticore and this man did have a deep relationship, what would this man do after Manticore was killed by Bugbop?

Bruce thought he would be angry about Unlucky Pop's act of killing people, but now he has accepted this fact. Besides, Manticore is not a human, right?

Although he did have some at the beginning.

Moreover, he thought that today's banquet would be cancelled because of this, but it was not. Does this mean that this man is still dreaming about their previous plan?

Moreover, what Unlucky Pop said, the matter has not been resolved yet. Is it also because of this man?

I don’t know. I’ll take it one step at a time. According to the current situation, this is the only way.

Bruce drank the wine in his hand while thinking, but out of the corner of his eye he saw Dorothy standing in the corner of the buffet area, eating food.

? ? ? ?

When did this guy show up here?

Bruce actually found an excuse for himself, then left the beauty beside him and walked towards Dorothy. Dorothy, who was eating, naturally noticed Bruce approaching her, and then waved to him.

"Yo!"

Bruce felt a little tired and wanted to hold his forehead. He originally thought that the girl would at least dress up a little in such an occasion, but he didn't expect that she would still appear in an occasion that was out of place wearing a uniform similar to the school uniform of a certain high school.

"I know what you're thinking." Dorothy watched Bruce's actions silently. She read the man's thoughts and gave him a middle finger in her heart.

"Don't ask me why I'm wearing this dress. I won't tell you." Dorothy would never say that it was because she couldn't take them off. The cloak, hat, suit jacket, and even the plaid skirt could all be taken off, but the shirt she was wearing was the only thing she couldn't take off.

After trying several times, Dorothy decided to give up the idea of ​​changing clothes, and also gave up thinking about the strange thing of why she couldn't take off her clothes.

She showered in her shirt that morning and spent an hour blow-drying herself.

"I'm sorry, I don't want to know either." Bruce twitched his lips silently and said in silence. At this time, the two of them came to a relatively safe stairwell, and then leaned against the wall to prepare to say something.

"No need to wait. You won't get to see the person you want to meet anyway." Dorothy said.

"What do you mean?" Bruce looked at Dorothy, and he realized that the girl had no expression on her face. Compared with the half-smile before, this expressionless face was the most terrifying. It seemed that she had been in this state since she came back in the morning.

"The man is dead," said Dorothy.

"You--" Bruce wanted to say something in shock.

"I didn't kill him." Dorothy looked at Bruce with suspicion and interrupted him speechlessly. "After you asked Mr. Afu to give me the invitation, I went back to the manor I went to this morning while there was still some time. Then I saw the man's body. There were marks of a cut throat on his neck, and the knife was in his right hand. I have confirmed that it was suicide. You don't have to believe me, but the police autopsy will confirm it."

Dorothy sighed slowly. This unexpected development undoubtedly disturbed her heart. The man was dead, and Manticore's accomplice was gone. Apart from the shipload of drugs and the unconscious person, what else was missing?
