"Reno said."

“…?” Bismarck stared blankly at the two men embracing each other.

Akashi was a little embarrassed: "Ahaha...this isn't, this isn't..."

He stammered for a long time but couldn't come up with a reason.

The observer, on the other hand, remained composed and showed no embarrassment at being exposed. Instead, he seemed somewhat regretful: "Oh dear, we've been found out..."

"So you're just playing me?" Bismarck sneered. "You've got some nerve."

“How can this be called playing a trick on you? This is just a little family joke,” the observer said seriously.

"Fine, I'll lock you up with the Royal Ark later and show you what a little joke between family members is like."

Bismarck suddenly smiled, but what he said made the observer shudder silently.

"I was wrong, I'm sorry..."

As expected of an octopus, the observer is quite adaptable.

“Then let’s just fix it properly and stop causing all this trouble.” Bismarck glared at him.

However, after this incident, the observer and Akashi became honest and began the final experiment and data investigation.

"Wonderful..." Ren Shuo exclaimed in amazement, "Wonderful, isn't it, Belfast?"

"I'm glad you're happy..." Belfast gave an awkward but polite smile.

"But speaking of which, haven't I forgotten something...?"

Ren Shuo suddenly fell into deep thought, then touched his hair: "What is it... Belfast, what do you think?"

"Hmm... Miss Xiafei has been communicating with Miss Richelieu recently, and Miss Richelieu is in charge of the specific arrangements. In addition, I have seen Master every day at meals these past few days. Plus, since she just joined the port, Master has been accompanying her during some exercises and training. There shouldn't be anything she has overlooked."

"Miss Unyielding was received by Miss Triumph and Miss Terrifying, Miss Vicious... was responsible for slacking off, and Ambition has been following behind me learning all this time, so there shouldn't be any problems... Is it just your imagination, Master?"

Belfast recounted the recent arrangements and things to be aware of as if they were a familiar treasure.

"How about work? Nothing's wrong, is there?" Ren Shuo still felt something was off.

“There’s nothing important at work lately,” Belfast said.

"Oh, then it's probably my fault... no, wait a minute..."

Ren Shuo's expression slowly changed; it seemed... there really was something...

"You guys go ahead with your work, Belfast, come with me!"

Ren Shuo hurriedly left a message and then pulled Belfast away.

Only Bismarck, who had just finished her modifications and stepped off the modification platform, and Akashi, who looked pale and sickly, were left staring at each other.

Why did the commander leave... Never mind... Bismarck didn't think much of it.

He simply stepped toward the trembling kitten.

"Just now, you were the one trying to trick me, weren't you?"

Commander! Help, meow!

Akashi trembled.

…………

"Master, what's the matter that's so urgent?"

Belfast let Ren Shuo lead her, but still asked a question.

"The Royal Ark." Ren Shuo said very seriously.

"Huh?" Belfast was taken aback, then realized, "I remember the Royal Ark was imprisoned, wasn't it?"

"Oh right, I almost forgot, the shrunken Royal Ark was locked up with the Royal Ark Meta, and that's been a long time now."

Ren Shuo said very seriously.

“So what… Ah, I get it.” Belfast couldn’t help but laugh.

One person is a loli enthusiast, and then they lock themselves together with another loli enthusiast. What should have been a large-scale exchange meeting for fellow sufferers was actually just that.

But by some unfortunate coincidence, I turned into a loli for some reason...

The scene was absolutely horrific; Belfast couldn't even bear to imagine it.

Upon arriving at the solitary confinement cell, Ren Shuo unlocked it with his fingerprint, and then Belfast took out the key to the secondary lock.

The door to the solitary confinement cell slowly opened.

A chill swept over him, and Ren Shuo felt a subtle sense of despair emanating from it, though he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination.

Swallowing hard, Ren Shuo led Belfast inside.

Chapter 561 The Royal Ark Wants to Start Anew

The cold corridor was devoid of sunlight.

Perhaps due to its location, the corridor felt slightly cool.

The corridor was very quiet, with only the sound of Ren Shuo and Belfast's footsteps.

For some reason, the chandelier above his head was swaying and flickering. If it weren't for the fact that he was in his own port area, Ren Shuo would have thought that he had accidentally entered some strange horror movie.

"How many times have I told you, even if it's a solitary confinement cell, don't make it this eerie..."

Ren Shuo rubbed his arms, feeling goosebumps all over them.

The main problem was the occasional "guhehe" laughter coming from inside the solitary confinement cell, which was truly terrifying.

Belfast said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Master, this solitary confinement room was designed by the Northern Union members, who said it would create a better atmosphere and feel."

"They always come up with something new..." Ren Shuo sighed helplessly. "Alright, let's see how Royal Ark is doing?"

They quickened their pace, and what came into view were the two Royal Ark's exclusive solitary confinement cells, or rather, unusual rooms?

However, instead of seeing the Royal Ark Meta, there was a small figure, seemingly huddled in a dimly lit corner with its knees drawn up to its chest, so it was difficult to see clearly.

However, I could vaguely hear singing and water sounds coming from another small room, so I guessed that Royal Ark Meta was taking a bath?

Although it's called a solitary confinement cell, it has all the necessary facilities, including a living room and a bathroom.

It's a bit dark and damp, but that's not a problem for the Royal Ark. Coming back here feels like home.

However, Ren Shuo didn't have time to deal with Royal Ark Meta for the time being. He slowly approached the small figure in the corner.

With a slight hesitation, Ren Shuo asked, "The Royal Ark?"

The small figure trembled slightly, then began to move slowly. It seemed to raise its head and see Ren Shuo, who looked hesitant and concerned, and Belfast, who was smiling behind it.

Royal Ark used to think Belfast's smile was so hateful, because every time he saw her smile, it meant he and his little sisters were parting ways, and then he would have to spend a long time in solitary confinement, unable to even touch his little sisters...

But never, never!

Royal Ark felt that Belfast's smile was so beautiful and lovely, it was as if she were an angel who had fallen from heaven to earth, and that she could be saved as long as she reached out her hand.

"Commander!"

With a sob in her voice, the once heroic voice had become softer and weaker, perhaps because it had become softer. Royal Ark rushed towards Ren Shuo with tears in her eyes.

While in the air, Ren Shuo and Belfast also noticed with their sharp eyes that Royal Ark seemed to be somewhat disheveled, and there seemed to be something inexplicable on its face... well, it was obviously Royal Ark Meta's drool.

Seeing that Ren Shuo and Belfast had finally come to save him, he was moved to tears.

We've finally escaped the den of demons.

God knows how I've managed to get through these past few days!

Royal Ark Meta, you've done so many terrible things, you're simply inhuman!

At that moment, Royal Ark had never felt so reassured by the Commander's magnanimity.

She had never felt such remorse before. Had she really caused so much harm to those adorable banished sisters?

At this moment, Royal Ark only wanted to say: I want to repent. From now on, I will only watch silently from afar, and at most take a few pictures for fun. I will never scare the exiled sisters again!

"What exactly happened? Why is it like this?" Ren Shuo couldn't help but ask.

It would have been better if she hadn't asked. As soon as she did, Royal Ark subconsciously thought about her miserable life these past few days and immediately began to tremble. Combined with her current petite and delicate appearance, she really looked quite pitiful.

"Okay, I won't ask anymore. Let's not dwell on it. It's all in the past."

With a tone of coaxing a child, Ren Shuo gently patted the back of Royal Ark.

Although Belfast behind him maintained a calm expression, he couldn't help but feel a little strange.

What terrible things did Royal Ark Meta do to turn Royal Ark into this mess?

And look at what she's muttering to herself... won't she scare the destroyers in the future?

This could be considered... an unexpected surprise?

Belfast suddenly wondered, what if we recreated the Royal Ark, then shrunk the Royal Ark Meta, and then...

Should we let the Royal Ark retaliate?

Perhaps after this, the two destroyer threats can be resolved?

Belfast remained silent, feeling that now that the opportunity had arisen, it was worth a try.

While they were still comforting Royal Ark, the door opened, and Royal Ark Meta, wearing a nightgown, walked out with a satisfied smile on her face.

"Hehehe... Ark, don't be afraid, I'm a decent person, I'm doing this to protect you~"

"I don't believe you! Get lost! You stupid woman, stay away from me!"

Upon hearing Royal Ark Meta's voice, Royal Ark became even more flustered, uttering all sorts of foul language.

"Hehehe, don't say that, I'm doing this to protect you~"

"Sweetie, we won't swear," Ren Shuo reassured her.

Then Ren Shuo winked at Belfast again: "Belfast."

Belfast curtsied slightly, then walked toward Meta of the Royal Ark: "Miss Meta, the punishment is over. You may leave now."

"Huh? This is nothing! I think I can hold out here for a few more days... no, a few more years!"

Royal Ark Meta spoke with righteous indignation.

These past few days have been absolutely heavenly! I can admire lolis without anyone bothering me. What am I doing here? I'm here on official business admiring lolis.

So why does Royal Ark Meta have to go out and suffer? It'll just get chased and beaten by a bunch of little guys or adults.

They might even be hung from streetlights and flagpoles.

"I told you, the punishment is over."

Belfast's smile carried a hint of warning.

Don't be ungrateful. If you keep going like this, you'll regret it.

Royal Ark Meta also felt a chill run down her spine.

So he shrank back and said honestly, "Okay, I understand..."

"Pity……"

Royal Ark Meta looked at the limited edition Royal Ark from his childhood with a hint of reluctance, muttering to himself.

Upon hearing this, the Royal Ark shook even more violently.

"Alright, I'll take Ark to find the Observer to help her recover..." Ren Shuo instructed.

"Then you just need to release Meta."

"Yes, Master..."

Just as Belfast was about to say that, a voice rang out.

"No need, I'll take her back. Letting her run wild like this for so long might cause some trouble if we just let her out."

With a calm gaze, Helena Meta slowly walked in from outside.
