"So, my dear junior, what brings you to your senior?" On the balcony, Laura pulled out a slim cigarette and prepared to take out a lighter.
But after fumbling for a while, she didn't find the lighter.
Chloe didn't speak first, just snapped her fingers, and the cigarette lit up.
"Wow." Laura chuckled, "Thanks, junior."
"No big deal." Chloe looked calmly at Laura and said, "More importantly, I want to ask you for something."
"Hmm? Just so you know, my body is off-limits." Laura made a big X with her hands, like a rascal.
"Do I look like that kind of person?"
"Not really, but you do have the air of a player."
"Then let's just say... I want to ask for your pocket watch."
"Huh?" Laura looked at Chloe with some surprise, "Asking for a girl's personal item right away is not very gentlemanly."
"Don't you want to solve the mystery in your heart?" Chloe looked earnestly into her eyes, "Maybe I can give you the answer you seek."
The carefree smile on Laura's face gradually disappeared.
Replacing it was cold seriousness and doubt:
"Junior, don't come to me joking around."
"Give me a cigarette."
"You don't look like someone who smokes."
"True, I don't smoke, but sometimes when I'm stressed, a cigarette helps to distract me."
Laura had already pulled out a slim cigarette and was about to hand it over to Chloe, when suddenly she pulled it back at the last moment.
She said unhurriedly:
"If that's the case, then don't start. There's no benefit to picking this up."
Chloe smiled and said:
"You smoke yourself though."
"Ha, I actually want to quit."
Laura exhaled a smoke ring, her red lips briefly obscured in the smoke.
She watched the peaceful campus path where groups of students passed by, her gaze flickering, deep in thought.
Chloe didn't rush Laura to take out the item, just turned his back to her and said:
"First of all, I need to apologize to you, senior."
"Why?"
"Because I had someone investigate you."
"???"
Laura looked quite shocked and said helplessly:
"Junior, don't mess with me, I really have no intention of starting a relationship."
But Chloe didn't laugh, he just said:
"Senior, you know that's not what I meant."
"What do you mean then?"
"You know the predecessor of the Extreme Association was the Lion Heart Society, right?"
"So what if I do?"
"Daniel gave me a list of the Lion Heart Society members once. I saw some very familiar names on it, like Senior Laura and Senior Noding."
Laura slowly exhaled the smoke she inhaled, her gaze flickering in uncertainty and said:
"So what are you trying to say, to mock me for misjudging people?"
Chloe shook his head and said:
"No, I'm not interested in judging others, I just didn't expect that back then, Senior Morton and Senior Noding were on good terms with you."
Chloe was indeed quite surprised.
Previously, Nini approached him.
Told him that if he wanted to know the truth, he should find two people.
One was Caesar.
The other was Laura.
From Caesar, he learned the Snake Family's situation seemed dire now.
And he also found out that Caesar joined the Lion Heart Society to find out who persuaded his brother to join the Void Erosion Sect back then.
However, through a connection with the Mad Lion Association, he exchanged some information.
The conclusion was that the Lion Heart Society had conducted an internal investigation at that time.
But apparently.
They didn't find anything.
However, since Nini came to him, it indicated that the Treasure Elf's Strong Fortune was effective.
Strong Fortune deemed it important for Chloe to know about this incident, which is why it prompted Nini to find him.
But the Mad Lion Association didn't get a satisfactory answer.
So he had to focus on Noding's internal connections.
Daniel cleaned up the Lion Heart Society once to get some peace and avoid family interference.
But the old list of the Lion Heart Society still remained.
He also inquired about who Noding was close to in the Lion Heart Society.
Eventually, Chloe saw a name on that list that surprised him.
It was Laura.
And Daniel also told Chloe that back in the Lion Heart Society, Laura and Noding had a good relationship.
Chloe softly said:
"I heard you had a good relationship with Senior Morton, but I didn't expect you and Senior Noding to be so close too, senior."
Laura casually said with a cigarette between her lips:
"The two of them had fierce arguments on the surface back then, but they got along well in private. I joined both the Fantasy Association and the Lion Heart Society back then, so it was normal for me to be close with them."
Chloe blinked and said:
"Someone who doesn't know might think you were in a love triangle."
"Hahaha, junior, you really have a great sense of humor." Laura laughed heartily, "I have devoted my whole life to archaeology."
"Huh?" Chloe said in surprise, "I really thought you might have had some ambiguous relationships."
Laura waved her hand and said:
"You're not the only one with that suspicion."
"See?
"But for me, looking at some explicit pictures is better than finding a guy."
"Senior, no wonder Lilith always says you're humorous."
"Hahaha, honestly speaking, I barely have any desire to find a man." Laura waved her fist and said, "I'd rather spend time reading more books on the occult and historical documents."
"Looks like I misunderstood." Chloe sighed and said, "But given your situation, Senior Laura, it might be a bit challenging to fall in love and get married in the future."
"Junior, are you looking down on me? Even though I'm not as stunning as Lilith, the queue of people from the Mage Series pursuing me could reach outside the dormitory!"
