Seeing that Black Swan actually had high hopes for Topa, who had turned himself into a loser, Huo Huo suddenly felt that the people of Liuguang Yiting were actually quite interesting. At least this simple and old-fashioned view of love was quite rare in the world.
According to Hanabi's observation, most of the so-called childhood sweethearts simply haven't met someone with a shining point that is enough to cover the filter of memories.
"It seems the Fool doesn't really trust the weight of memory. How about a bet? At the end of this story called Pinocchio, the person accompanying Jeremy will definitely not be the singer. As for the bet... I have a white oak stick of Asdena here."
"Interesting! You're actually planning to make a bet with the Masked Fool? I have absolutely no reason to refuse."
Upon hearing that someone was actually planning to make a bet with the Masked Fool, the smile on Hanabi's face suddenly became even more joyful.
The Masked Fool's mischievousness is known throughout the world, and few are willing to actively interact with this group of fun people, for fear of inadvertently becoming part of the fun.
Not to mention betting, which is an act of inviting others to join in the fun.
"If I lose, how about I give you some information about another breeding remnant? I believe Spider-Man will be interested in this information. As for what you can get from him with this information, that's up to you."
"It's a word."
Seeing the Fool take the bait, the Rememberer from Liuguang Memory Court immediately narrowed his eyes and revealed a triumphant smile.
Of course, she knew that, given the current situation, Miss Singer couldn't be said to have a huge advantage, but at least she was sure of victory.
But the Fool in front of him overlooked one thing. Although Miss Singer seemed to have the greatest chance of winning at the moment, her dual identities as Robin and Saturday might not necessarily be all good for her. If she continued to waste her energy internally, she might really lose all her good cards.
After all, the news that Saturday and Mockingbird are actually the same person is not so easy for Jeremy to accept.
"You two are really at ease. Do you have the leisure to bet on my love?"
The singer's voice rang out in the room. Saturday had unknowingly stood by the door, looking at the two allies in front of him who were supposed to be on his side.
"Don't look at this girl with such a dangerous look, Chicken Wing Girl. I have always believed in your charm. Haven't you already charmed that little spider?"
Even though her behavior of talking behind others' backs was caught, Hanabi spread her hands nonchalantly, as if she didn't care at all.
"I don't have time to think about that right now. Please both of you step aside for a moment. I need to be alone for a while."
After politely but unquestionably giving the order to leave, Saturday slowly walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling mirror in front of him and stared at "himself" in the mirror.
Her long blue-purple hair fell like a waterfall, the halo above her head sparkled, and the soft feathers behind her ears spread slightly, making her look holy and pure.
Although he had not removed his disguise, the "Mockingbird" was still reflected in the mirror, in Saturday's magnificent eyes.
Saturday pulled over a chair and sat down, crossing his long legs. He looked very imposing and stared quietly at his reflection in the mirror, as if waiting for the other person to speak first.
However, the reflection in the mirror did not speak, nor did it change its posture according to Saturday's actions. It still stood in the mirror, and the halo above its head even looked a little dazzling.
The two singers sat in silence facing each other until a long time later, when Saturday outside the mirror took the lead in breaking the silent deadlock.
"It seems that there is indeed something wrong with my mind. I have actually experienced this. I should go see a doctor when I have time. What do you think, Robin?"
Looking at the robin in the mirror, Saturday said in a serious voice, according to common sense, this situation should never happen.
I and "myself" are doing different actions and having different thoughts across a mirror.
"Shouldn't I be the one saying this? You're the shadow. Saturday, we're not sick. At least we're still some distance away from schizophrenia, though not far off."
"But there's no need to make such a fuss. If this were reality, this wouldn't happen. But this is a dream, and anything is possible. It's not uncommon for people to talk to themselves after being subjected to a divine descent, isn't it? And what's more, you were receiving a descent from the Wanlai Theatre."
The voice of the Universal Singer was still sweet, but it was no less serious than Saturday's, and contained some questions.
"But why did you say that to Mr. Jeramy... Go your separate ways, don't hold back. You're considering a very dangerous plan."
"Isn't that what you think, too, Mockingbird?"
Facing Robin's questioning, Saturday spread his hands and the smile on his face became a little forced... and sick.
"We all know what my brother is planning to do, and we also know that Mr. Jeremy will definitely follow his lead and do something stupid. Since words can't bring them together, then why not..."
"Above order, all sounds are in harmony..."
The two singers looked at each other and sang in unison.

Volume 110: Topa: It's urgent, let's sell Jeramy.
"Is this the real-life headquarters of the Oak family? Judging from the map, it looks even bigger than our strategic investment department in Pierpoint."
Following Jeremy, Topa and Shajin walked along the cobblestone path in the garden. The morning dew slightly wet the trouser legs of the three people, and the damp feeling brought a little coolness.
For the people of Interstellar Peace Company, strolling through the residence of the Oak Family, one of the five major families of Pinocchio, is indeed a novel experience.
After all, even if the relationship between the company and Pinocchio cannot be described as harmonious, it can at least be described as open and covert struggle.
Even when Sha Jin was invited by Sunday before, he only went to the Chaolu Mansion in his dream. No one from the company had ever set foot in this real manor.
Topa looked around the manor. An atmosphere of peace and tranquility filled every corner of the place, and there was no smell of gunpowder at all.
But according to the Singer of the Universe, the mecha that has been almost completed is parked in this manor.
"That's not quite right. The company's business spans the globe, and the headquarters in Pier Point mostly serves the purpose of information integration and decision-making. The branches, which have opened in almost every civilized world, are the more important part."
Shajin patted the dew on his shoulders and, unusually, did not argue with Topa. Instead, he turned his attention to Jeramy.
In fact, in the invitation letter sent by the Oak family, only Jeremy was invited, and the two of them were even dragged here by Jeremy.
According to Jeramy, he had no fear of visiting the Morning Dew Mansion in his dream, but even he was unsure about going to the Oak family's real residence.
"Speaking of which, Jeremy, you were the only one invited, yet you insisted on dragging us along. Aren't you worried...that if you go in alone, you won't be able to get out?"
Sha Jin put his arm around his best friend and teased Jeremy in this rare way.
In fact, when these words came out, even Sha Jin himself did not believe this possibility, but the sympathetic expression on Jeramy's face when he called them made it difficult for people not to make this association.
"Although I don't want to admit it, I do have concerns about this."
Ever since Miss Saturday said in the basement last time that there was a possibility that they might go their separate ways, Jeremy had a bad feeling.
Of course, it wasn't a matter of worrying whether the two would end up on opposite sides of each other. Jeremy had actually anticipated this.
Ever since his last conversation with Sunday, he had vaguely realized that this Oak family member was likely to do something big enough to overthrow Pinocchio, but unfortunately, his plan was actually quite attractive to Jeremy.
Although reason told Jeremy that Sunday's plan had no chance of success, and even Sunday himself was well aware of this, even an attempt that was doomed to fail could still accumulate valuable experience.
No great undertaking can be accomplished overnight. Failure and trial and error are always an indispensable process. Even a company's business has both losses and gains.
What really worries Jeremy is the relationship between Robin and Miss Saturday.
It’s not that he was worried that the two young singers would get hurt. After all, in Sunday’s plan, even if it failed, no one would feel pain in the dream. Jeremy was actually worried about Sunday and himself.
After all, Miss Saturday has also obtained the power of the messenger through the spirit-sentence ritual, and the situation is likely to develop into a confrontation between the two messengers.
And, according to Sunday, Miss Saturday, who is a child of harmony, is even more suitable for the séance ceremony than he is.
The worst scenario that Sunday could imagine was not his own failure, but that his sister would drag the ethereal walker along and forcibly smash the dream he had created.
But in Jeramy's opinion, Sunday's speculation was still too optimistic.
The worst case scenario is that Miss Saturday takes precautions before he takes action.
For example, before their like-minded plan begins, separate the two people who are about to cause trouble, and lock up Jeremy, who is easier to deal with, first.
Therefore, when Jeremy saw that Miss Saturday invited him to go alone to the Oak Family's base in reality to inspect the two recast Guardians, the spider's unique survival instinct began to frantically alert Jeremy.
If I go alone, something terrible will definitely happen.
For the sake of his own personal freedom and life safety, Jeremy decisively called Toppa and Shajin together. It would be difficult for the singer to take action in public.
"Isn't this great? With the two eldest daughters of Pinocchio, you won't have to work so hard for the company anymore. You can even have them help you pay off the debt you owe to Ms. Jade... Those are two harmonious children. Pinocchio's status within the family will definitely rise dramatically in the future. Maybe in a few years, the company will come back to Pinocchio. I'll have to ask you to treat old friends with preferential treatment."
Topa lifted Zhang Zhang's ear, signaling it not to gnaw on other people's flower beds, and he did not forget to add insult to injury to Jeremy.
As for what she really thinks in her heart, it is unknown.
But it was obvious that since Jeremy brought them into the manor, and the servants on duty immediately changed their words to calling him "son-in-law" after seeing the token Jeremy presented, Topa's originally good mood was no longer very good.
Topa, don't send me off!
Hearing Toppa's words, which he couldn't tell whether they were sarcasm or serious advice between close friends, Shajin's brows jumped and the smile on his face almost fell.
Ever since the last confrontation with the Universal Singer, something has been wrong with this colleague of mine.
It’s not that she has returned to the state when she first met and would occasionally say a tsundere remark or two. On the contrary, she seems to have become more outspoken.
Although the three of them often teased, joked, and took advantage of each other in the past, when it came to love, Topa's mouth was as tight as a company safe.
But now... Sha Jin could clearly feel that Topa, who had been sitting back and taking it slow, adhering to the principle of "the closer you are to the water, the better", was starting to get anxious.
However, even if you are in a hurry, you can't say that. With Jeremy's personality that he will really believe anything others dare to say, he might really take Topa's sarcasm seriously.
If Jeremy really planned to stay in Pinocchio for two... no, three, she would just wait to cry.
"It's a tempting offer, but forget it. Lady Emerald will skin me alive."
To Shajin's relief, Jeramy didn't take Topa's teasing seriously. Instead, he shook his head firmly.
But speaking of Ms. Emerald...
Sha Jin suddenly remembered the secret communication that Ms. Emerald had sent him not long ago, asking him to keep an eye on Jeremy and never lose track of him. If possible, it would be best not to let him enter the family's dreams.
He really couldn't imagine that such an anxious tone would come out of Ms. Emerald's mouth, and it seemed that she only told him.
It sounds like... you accidentally discovered something fatal, but you can't tell anyone else.
With Topa's love life being blocked first and Ms. Emerald's secret instructions later, Shajin felt that he had too much to do on this trip.
And...Ms. Jade, it's not that I didn't try hard, it's just that I really can't carry this guy Topa.
Sha Jin, who was having troubles, was feeling melancholy and had begun to consider whether he should just add some accessories to their water and lock them in a room.
Not only can it solve Topa's love problem, but it can also ensure that Jeremy can't run around in the short term.
The only problem is that I might be beaten up by the two of them afterwards.
For the sake of his own safety, he did not intend to activate this plan unless it was absolutely necessary.
"Alright, instead of joking about this, let's think about how we're going to explain this to the company when we get back to Pier Point. One of the two cornerstones was shattered and the other cracked during this trip, and the company is still holding the remaining topaz and emerald. While that was part of Ms. Emerald's plan, the price is still quite high."
In order to prevent his heart from being frightened any further, Sha Jin decisively chose to change the topic away from Jeremy and the two singers and put another extremely realistic problem in front of them.
As of now, the business of Pinocchio is a sure loss, with a price of nearly two cornerstones. Even if Pinocchio is willing to return to the company's credit system, the profits it brings within a limited period may not offset the losses.
Unless Jeremy can accomplish the company's real goal of coveting Pinocchio - the holy body used by the Amber King to seal and reproduce.
"Don't worry, as long as we get the Amber King's holy body, everything will be fine."
When Jeramy and Topa heard Shajin's question, their expressions froze.
Play is play, joke is joke, but don’t joke about performance.
This business was secured by Ms. Jade with her credit guarantee. If they mess it up, the three of them will have to die to atone for it.
But that brings us back to another more realistic question - why did Pinocchio give the Amber King's holy body to the three of them?
The original plan was that Jeramy should have secretly lurked inside Pinoconi, with Sand Gold and Toppa attracting attention so that he could find the holy body of the Amber King and then get away with it.
But now, most of the Pinocchio family members knew that the eldest daughter of the Oak family was in love with someone, and the swarm of insects had already appeared in front of the family. The matter of the Amber King's Holy Body and the breeding remains could no longer be hidden.
In this situation, it is obviously impossible to sneak away and get away with it. It is also unrealistic to expect Pinocchio to hand it over. That kind of thing is beyond the level of being used as a favor. Even if the two singing ladies want to, they must consider the internal interests of the family given their status.
As for the open robbery... It's not that Topa is belittling himself. Pinocchio now has at least two people at the level of the commander, and there is also the Dream Lord who has not taken action until now. Even if Jeramy can hold one of them with his life, the remaining two can almost lift her and Shajin with one hand each.
Thinking of this, even Topa stopped being stubborn with Jeremy. He turned around and carefully looked at his colleague who in every sense of the word met the standards of a pretty boy. He felt deeply reluctant that the Spider could not get the Amber King's Holy Body.
She has perfect looks, outstanding abilities, and she was able to completely charm the two singers. Even without the added bonus of connections, she should still be able to fetch a good price.
"Tell me, if we sell you to those two singers, is your price worth the Amber King's sacred body?"
"Topa, has the situation become so serious?"
Hearing Topana's meaningful question, Jeramy's face suddenly fell.
When it comes to work, he can accept whatever ideas Topa and Shajin come up with. After all, past experience has proven that no matter how outrageous their plans are, they are all feasible to a certain extent.
But, this is the only exception.
He came in with Toppa and Gold Sand to prevent himself from being locked up in the basement by Miss Singer. How come the situation suddenly turned into everyone discussing how much he would be worth if he was sold in the basement?
"This is a necessary sacrifice for the sake of performance."
Topa touched Zhang Zhang's ear seriously.
"You can't just expect me to do that so casually. I've made contributions to the company and shed blood for the department. I want to see Ms. Emerald!"
Listening to the voices of Topa and Jeramy, who were not sure whether they were joking or having a serious discussion, Shajin's expression gradually changed from dull to helpless.
