Starting with Fireflies, Speedrun the World

"Therefore, some exchanges have problems."

Noticing Kurama Nene's reaction, Ryuhoshi quickly explained to her.

Not to mention Kurama Nene, even this Black Tower Doll often doesn't follow the rules with her. It's best to just give her orders directly.

If you beat around the bush, she will not only misunderstand, but also easily get angry.

Chapter 54 Haven't you ever seen a woman as beautiful as me?

"What? Miss Black Tower is a doll?"

Ryuhoshi's words startled Kurama Neon, who looked at the beautiful girl Black Tower not far away in disbelief. Such a cute and lifelike person was just a doll.

I didn't lie to her, did I?

Why doesn't she believe it?

"Of course, and it's not hard to see. You'll see it clearly if you look closely at her joints."

While the Black Tower doll is indeed very realistic, the most obvious feature is its joints, which are clearly not human joints but rather joints specific to dolls.

It's unclear why Ms. Black Tower retained the traditional joints of the doll; given her skill level, she shouldn't have needed them at all.

Or did she feel that keeping this would better confirm her identity as a doll?

"It's really true!"

It really was a doll.

As Kurama Nene approached the Black Tower, she noticed that her joints were distinctly different from those of a human, which made her realize that she was indeed a doll.

This doll is just amazing!

The knot in her heart disappeared; now all she wanted was a doll like that.

"Is Black Tower also a Star Core Hunter?"

Such a powerful doll could not possibly belong to this era. Considering Liu Ying's identity, one can guess that she must also be a creation from outside the world.

"That's right."

This Black Tower doll belongs to me, while Firefly is a Star Core Hunter, so this doll also belongs to the Star Core Hunter.

"so good."

Kurama Nene carefully examined the Black Tower, growing more and more fond of it with each look.

Although she is no longer a child, she is still very interested in dolls and puppets. What girl hasn't dressed up her dolls when she was little?

I've never seen anything like her before, even one-to-one scale, so adorable, and with artificial intelligence.

"Stop staring at me like that. Haven't you ever seen a woman as beautiful as me before?"

After being stared at by Kurama Nene for a while, Kurota put his hands on his hips and said to her with a displeased look.

This human is making a fuss over nothing. It's just a doll, what's so interesting about it? There are plenty of those on the Black Tower space station, and none of the clerks react like this!

"So cute, can I hug you?"

Kurama Nene wasn't angry; instead, she found the black tower even cuter. This was a doll with artificial intelligence—it was truly adorable.

"No way! Don't even think about it!"

Black Tower ruthlessly rejected Kurama Nene's request.

"Ok."

Upon hearing this, Kurama Nene no longer insisted.

Turning back to Liuying's side, she asked curiously, "Liuying-chan, what are some of her skills?"

"She has many skills, including a certain degree of self-defense and basic research abilities. She is also good at some basic tasks, such as cleaning and making coffee."

"Wow, that's amazing, they even do research..."

As expected of a doll with artificial intelligence, Kurama Nene dared not underestimate her.

But is it really appropriate to let such a powerful Black Tower do cleaning?

……

The time came at night.

Liuying and Kurama Neon chose to go out for dinner.

Although Liuying can actually cook, there are only some simple ingredients and noodles at home. Liuying can eat whatever she wants when she's alone and doesn't care too much about the food.

Kurama Neon came back today, and eating here would be too simple, so we decided to eat out.

Fortunately, there are quite a few restaurants nearby, but the taste...

Anything is fine with fireflies; they can eat even things that don't taste good.

However, on the way back after eating, Liuying bought a small cake.

Now that she's not short of money, a small cake every day makes her very happy. So, if she has time, this is naturally a must.

"Do you want some, Neein?"

After taking a bite of the small cake, Ryuho realized what was happening... and hesitantly handed the cake to Kurama Nene.

"no need."

"I just finished eating, I can't eat anymore!"

Kurama Nene quickly shook her head; she didn't have a hobby like fireflies and wasn't that obsessed with cakes.

"Oh."

Since she doesn't want it, Liu Ying won't force her.

Touching her tummy, Liu Ying thought, "My body has been modified, so I shouldn't gain weight easily. I don't need to restrict my sweets too much."

"But do people at the Black Tower... really not need to eat?"

Kurama Nene was a little concerned.

Although Black Tower claims it's a doll, it looks too much like a real person. They didn't even take her with them when they went out to eat; is that really okay?

"She's a doll, so naturally she doesn't need one."

That's great.

Hearing Ryuhoshi's answer, Kurama Nene couldn't help but sigh. No need to eat, so there's no need to worry about her figure.

"Ok?"

Liu Ying was taken aback.

"Oh, it's nothing, we're home!"

Realizing what was happening, Kurama Nene quickly changed the subject.

As she spoke, she pushed open the door, took off her shoes, and stepped on the doormat wearing white socks. The doormat had an antibacterial and pleasant fragrance.

Not only does it effectively eliminate odors, it also leaves a pleasant fragrance!

People usually go in barefoot here, just wearing socks indoors. After walking a distance, there was no athlete's foot or odor, so this rug made things much more convenient.

As Kurama Neon went inside, Ryuhoshi leaned down, bracing herself against the wall with one hand, and took off her shoes.

Similar to Kurama Nene, Ryuhoshi was also wearing a pair of mid-length white socks that just covered her calves.

The snow-white stockings were clean and silky, their delicate texture gently clinging to her ankles and calves, like a thin mist covering them, or a delicious ice cream.

However, Liu Ying herself was already used to it and didn't pay any attention. After taking off her shoes, she stepped inside.

The black tower wasn't in the living room; it must be in the bedroom, but the lights weren't on.

Meanwhile, back home, Kurama Nene lay utterly exhausted on the sofa, engrossed in her phone, seemingly playing something.

Liuying took a cantaloupe from the refrigerator, cut it up, and placed it in front of Kurama Neon.

Fruit is expensive in Japan, but now that money is no object, Ryuhoshi won't skimp on this. Although she's still a little heartbroken, she wonders how many mini cakes she could buy with that cantaloupe.

"Thank you."

Kurama Nene didn't seem to care. She thanked Liuying for the fruit she brought, ate a small piece, and then continued playing on her phone.

After checking the time, Liu Ying didn't rush to sleep. Instead, she lay down on the sofa, curled up in a ball, took out her phone, and started playing with it.

It seems like this phone should be replaced soon; I hadn't noticed before.

Because it hasn't been used much.

"Firefly..."

After a short while, Kurama Nene put down her phone and looked at the girl in front of her, seemingly wanting to say something, but hesitating.

Chapter 55 Accompanying the Live Stream

"What...what happened?"

Seeing Kurama Nene's hesitant expression, Ryuho asked in confusion.

"It's that one...that one..."

Kurama Nene was conflicted because it might cause trouble for Ryuhoshi, which was a bit of a stretch.

But after looking at the many messages on her phone, she still asked.

"Well, I haven't done a live stream in a long time, and my fans have been leaving messages asking for a live stream, so I was wondering if there's any way I can continue streaming?"

After saying that, Kurama Nene stared longingly at Ryuhoshi.

For the past few weeks, she's been recording videos every now and then, and hasn't done a live stream in a long time. After all, a live stream would reveal her location.

As a result, I've lost a lot of fans, although I still have quite a few now.

After all, she's a major internet celebrity with millions of followers.

Kurama Nene doesn't care much about making money. As the daughter of the Kurama Zaibatsu, who could be richer than her?
