Collapse Iron: I'm a Succubus in the Universe

Himeko felt a little embarrassed, as if she were an older woman dating a younger man, and gently patted Sora's head.

If Qiong knew what she was thinking, she would definitely say she was overthinking it, especially now.

"That's great! I like Himeko-nee too!"

As Qiong spoke, she hugged Himeko without any hesitation and affectionately rubbed her cheek against Himeko's chest.

The unusual touch made Himeko's cheeks flush slightly, but she did not resist. She simply smiled and patted Sora's head.

"Alright, alright, if you feel better, hurry up and put it away."

"Yes, but there's one more thing I'd like to ask Himeko-nee for help."

"What is it? Tell me."

Himeko spoke with great affection, and Sora also expressed her thoughts, and then soon after...

"Is it...is it okay? This is so embarrassing!"

Himeko raised one arm again and sat on the edge of the bed, while Sora stood beside her, nuzzling her intimately.

Perhaps because she had just experienced tasting, Qiong completed the task very smoothly this time.

"Okay, thank you, Himeko-nee!"

"No, it's nothing. Now that you're better, go and do your own thing."

Himeko felt a sticky sensation in her once smooth armpits, which became even more pronounced after she lowered her arms.

She wanted to wash up as soon as possible, but Qiong came close to her again at that moment.

"There seems to be a little left, Himeko-nee, we can't let it go to waste."

"Ugh! Sigh, you... alright."

Himeko shook her head helplessly. Although she was still a little shy, she was now able to help clean up the residue in the straws compared to before.

After that, Sora finally left Himeko's room. This time was quite different from before; instead of getting coffee, Himeko drank quite a lot.

But it's not a loss at all; on the contrary, it's a huge profit!

The scene then shifts to a short time later, where Qiong successfully returned to the Black Tower Space Station, and upon landing, she happened to encounter a Little Black Tower.

"You! Why are you back again!"

"Oh? It's number 216. Haven't seen you for a while. How are you doing?"

As Qiong spoke, she arrived beside the little black tower and gently hugged her waist.

"Ugh! You still smell like other girls on you, and you come to see me like this? Don't you have any conscience?"

"Wow, that's amazing! So you can actually tell by smell?"

"Of course you can smell it!"

Number 216 rolled his eyes in exasperation, but made no move to resist, since Lady Black Tower herself had already been taken down by the other party.

Qiong smiled slightly upon hearing this. He didn't intend to do anything at the moment, so he only hugged her for a while before letting go.

"Huh? Why aren't you coming back?"

"Has that always been the image you have of me?"

"Wasn't that so before?"

Faced with the Black Tower's matter-of-fact tone, Qiong fell silent, but he did have something important to do upon his return.

"By the way, Little 216, do you know what Estella has been through recently?"

"what's up?"

Number 216 blinked, seemingly unaware of the situation. Qiong then explained the situation to her, and Number 216 frowned slightly after learning about it.

"They're really just wasting their time. They come to the space station and instead of doing their jobs properly, they just talk about useless things."

"Little 216, don't say that."

"Huh? What did you take it as? Never mind, I'll put together an unboxing program later, you can figure it out yourself."

Number 216 waved her hand as she spoke. It wasn't surprising that she could do that, after all, she was also a personality of the Black Tower.

Moreover, in her opinion, this kind of thing is a waste of time, and those who like to argue online usually behave themselves when someone comes to them in person.

Chapter 187 Estella's Troubles

Qiong also thought this method was good, so while working on the opening and closing procedure on 216, he planned to first look around the space station.

I'll also ask Estádio if she needs my help, since, strictly speaking, she's the stationmaster.

On the way, he also checked the contents of the group chat, and it had already reached 99+ in just a short while.

Damn, don't these guys ever work? This feels more like a self-directed and self-acted performance, but what's the purpose?

Before Qiong could even find Estella, something happened at the Special Analysis Room. Apparently, someone called "Melon Farmer" was also trapped inside, and he even knew who was spreading rumors about Estella.

Qiong could only say, "No way, I haven't even had a chance to investigate yet, how come the people who know the truth are already gone?"

Despite the complaints, although the investigation can be conducted through the opening and closing procedures of No. 216, the person still needs to be saved.

This is, after all, Black Tower's territory, and the employees here are Black Tower's property. Since Black Tower is itself, this can be considered as protecting its own property.

It's been so long, how come there are still remnants of the Legion remaining on the space station? It seems necessary to eliminate the rift on the space station.

While thinking about it, Qiong had already gone to look for him and eventually found the "melon farmer," whose real name was Pamela, a space station employee.

"My goodness, you scared me to death... Why did you take so long to get here?!"

How did you know I was coming back?

Qiong was somewhat surprised by this, but Pamela on the other side looked confident, even a little smug, with no trace of the panic she had shown earlier.

"Of course. I not only knew you would come, but I also knew why you came."

Just as Pamela had predicted, Sora wanted information about the person who spread the negative rumors, but the other party had a condition.

"But there are conditions. I saved you, isn't that enough?"

"Oh, let's keep things separate. I'll repay your life-saving kindness in other ways, okay?"

Pamela put her hands together, looking like she had gotten rid of it. Lord Qiong was magnanimous and didn't hold it against her, so he waved his hand helplessly.

"Alright, alright, go ahead and tell me."

"Hehe, thank you so much, my benefactor..."

"Stop! Don't call me benefactor, that's not the proper way to address me here."

"Uh, okay... I don't really have any hobbies, I just like to listen to gossip and... admire... scientists."

Pamela seemed a little embarrassed when she got to this point, and after confirming again that Qiong was a member of the Star Train, she continued.

"Well, I actually really like Himeko-neechan, who is beautiful and intelligent, elegant yet gentle... a scientist."

"so?"

"So could you please get me a high-definition, flawless, full-face photo of Himeko's smiling face? It has to be so captivating, the kind that makes me burst into tears!"

As Pamela spoke, she couldn't help but place her hands on one side of her cheeks and rub them gently. Qiong was somewhat surprised, as she had never heard of such a strange request.

However, it's not unacceptable.

"Oh, then click on this video and jump to 5 minutes and 48 seconds."

"what?"

"I mean I have it here, please wait a moment."

Qiong silently skipped over the previous topic, then picked up her phone and sent a message to Himeko.

"Sora: Himeko-nee, I have a female fan who wants your photo, can I give it to her?"

Himeko: Female fans? That's fine, but you'd better provide some normal photos!

It's no wonder Himeko made a point of mentioning it, since, according to her understanding, Sora had taken a picture when she tasted coffee with her flavor before.

But it's one thing for the two of them to know about that in private, but how can they let others know?

"Qiong: Don't worry, it's perfectly normal. What do you think of this one?"

Himeko: Yes, that's fine.

After obtaining Himeko's permission, Sora selected a photo from her album and sent it to her. Pamela was very satisfied with the photo.

"It is indeed a high-definition, flawless, full-face smiling photo of Himeko-neechan! However, something seems a little strange about this angle?"

Pamela realized something was amiss, unaware that the photo was actually taken while Sora was enjoying Himeko's lap pillow.

However, she will probably never know, since this is not a complete screenshot. Qiong even adjusted it, so it's actually just a close-up photo.

Pamela also honestly sent the little secret of "the scoundrel in the melon field" to Qiong, and before leaving, Qiong also cleaned up the Rift Realm.

Then they returned to the space station's main hall.

"There shouldn't be any problems now."

"What? What's the problem?"

As Qiong was muttering to himself, Estella herself came to his side and blinked her eyes curiously.

"You... how did you get here?"

"Huh? Why are you so flustered?... That's suspicious."

Estelle put her hands on her hips, her eyes sharpened, but she still looked quite cute.

"Ahem, it's nothing. I just didn't expect you to come, since you messaged me saying you've been pretty busy lately."

Qiong forcibly changed the subject, and upon hearing his words, Estella sighed helplessly, a trace of melancholy and resentment appearing on her face.

"Yes, the reconstruction of the space station had only just made some progress, but recently signs of localized fragmentation have appeared again! Sigh..."

Estella couldn't help but shake her head and complain to Qiong, the key point being that the Black Tower was a hands-off manager who didn't care about the rift at all.

"In that case, do you need my help?"

"Oh, is that alright? Well, you've joined the Star Train, so the train should be the expert in this area!"

Upon hearing Qiong's suggestion, Estella's eyes lit up. Besides being able to help solve this problem, she also had a little something to do.

"If Qiong stays at the space station to help deal with the rift, can I ask him some questions about Professor Black Tower?"

With this in mind, Qiong nodded in agreement without hesitation, since it was something he originally wanted to do.

Normally, Estella would have spent lavishly to pay Sora a high salary in this situation, but that might not be possible recently.

"I'm sorry, I was going to pay you some wages, but the key to my allowance at home has been taken away, so I have to go and deal with it right away."

"Is there anyone who dares to confiscate your things?"

Sora was somewhat surprised, to which Estella shrugged helplessly.

"There's nothing we can do; everyone has their own difficulties."

After saying this, Estelle left, while Sora fell into deep thought. Could the withheld key be the evidence the rumor-mongers were talking about?

Chapter 188 The Little Black Tower's Taste System

Thinking about it carefully, it's quite possible. If that's the case, then I'd better hurry up.

According to the information provided by Pamela, the identity of the person spreading the rumors has been confirmed as Richard from the Legal Affairs Department.

Qiong found him without breaking a sweat. It was this kid who was spreading rumors about Estád. But punishment is punishment, and we still need to take a look at the evidence in Richard's hands.

It turned out that Estella had simply purchased the equipment that occupied the space in her own name. Richard thought that the other party was using public funds for private purposes, but in reality, it was just Estella's pocket money.

"Let me tell you, I was so angry that I was shaking all over, my hands and feet were ice cold, and I was sweating profusely even though it was a hot day."

"...Is it possible that she bought it herself?"

Qiong said somewhat speechlessly, but Richard couldn't help but laugh and shook his head.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Such a large sum of money, she paid for it herself? What kind of family is she? Fleming's own daughter?"

It's clear that this person is quite ignorant. Qiong isn't surprised, after all, who would have thought that Estella is a hidden rich woman?

"Alright, you've seen the juicy scoop, stop bothering me. I still have to write a complaint letter to Ms. Black Tower, I'm very busy! Eh? Ms. Black Tower!"

Halfway through his sentence, Richard's gaze was drawn to a figure behind Qiong. As if seeing a leader personally reviewing his work, his expression became much more serious.
