The Twitter account Joseph had casually registered now boasted over ten million followers.And yet, from beginning to end, he had posted only a single tweet—a system-generated birthday greeting.But with his name repeatedly trending in recent days, that lone post had amassed more than 300,000 comments, over 100,000 shares, and well over a million likes.Its popularity spoke for itself.“A truly conscientious researcher—you’ve solved a problem that has plagued women for centuries.”“I bought the medicine a little over a week ago. At first it gave me some stomach trouble, but when my period came these past two days… no pain at all. Incredible. Professor Wilson, can I call you Dad? Please, kind father, sob sob!”“My father took the Morgan Group’s new lymphoma drug. After just one week, the doctor said his condition had improved slightly—at least now there’s hope of controlling it. Thank you, Mr. Wilson. You’ve saved our family.”“Mid-stage lymphoma. After taking the new drug developed by

“Perhaps things aren’t as simple as we think.”“For people like them, any connection with us would inevitably set off a chain reaction.”“For both sides, this is a matter of great consequence.”“In other words, it’s fine to deepen mutual understanding—but maintaining the current distance between us may well be the wiser choice.”“If we come to know too much about each other, it could ultimately backfire.”Mandy said after a moment’s thought, her expression ????? and measured.“That… does make sense.”“It seems I’ve been too impatient.”“I’ve always been too quick to act. It’s a good thing I have you by my side—otherwise, I can’t imagine how much trouble I’d have caused.”Clarence Bennett said with a sigh.“You are impatient—that’s your flaw. But your strength is that you listen. As long as someone explains things clearly, you’re willing to hear them out.”Mandy said with a smile.“I can be stubborn at times, but not to the point where I lose all reason.”“Actually, that Professor Wils

“But as things stand, there’s nothing we can do anyway, is there?”A faint smile touched Joseph’s lips.“We may not be able to act—but Professor Wilson, we are very curious about what you are doing.”“I can’t shake the feeling that whatever you’re planning is far from simple.”Clarence Bennett said bluntly.“Is it so impossible that we’re simply in it for the money?”“Money is a powerful thing. No one in this world is immune to its pull.”“We’re no different from anyone else.”Joseph replied mildly.“For money?”“I don’t believe that. With your capabilities, there are countless ways for you to make money.”Clarence Bennett shook his head, unconvinced.“Perhaps one day, everything you wish to know will become clear.”“All I can say is this—whatever we do, it will never endanger the stability of Nova City.”“Creating chaos in this country has never been our intention.”Joseph said again, echoing what he had told Clarence Bennett before.“I know. There’s something about you… how should I

“Professor Wilson is right.”“I had assumed that someone like you might place importance on pedigree.”“With your abilities, you stand apart from most people.”Clarence Bennett spoke with a hint of reflection.“I believe the purpose of education is not to elevate oneself above others, nor to draw distinctions between oneself and the masses.”“It is to enrich one’s inner world—and to cultivate a deeper empathy for the struggles of ordinary people.”Joseph replied.“I didn’t expect your perspective to be so elevated, Professor Wilson. Unfortunately, those in power within the Central Council don’t see things that way.”“Their thoughts revolve solely around their own interests.”Clarence Bennett said, his tone edged with indignation.“Even if you’re powerless to change it, you can retain your sense of outrage—and act when the time is right.”Joseph said to him.“Act when the time is right… but when will that time come?”Clarence Bennett looked troubled.“I don’t know either. For now, we w

“It’s nothing particularly urgent.”“It’s just that things have eased up a bit lately, and I was wondering if you might have some time.”“If you’re free, would you mind joining me for a meal, Professor Wilson?”“You’ve helped us tremendously—we ought to express our gratitude properly.”“Of course, the meal is only part of it. More importantly, it would be a chance for us to understand each other better. After all, there may be opportunities for cooperation in the future.”Clarence Bennett spoke with careful tact.“Commander Bennett, if your superiors were to learn that we’re cooperating, I wonder what they’d think.”“In other words—have you obtained their approval?”Joseph cut straight to the point.“Professor Wilson, whether I have their approval isn’t really the issue.”“To be frank with you—after everything that’s happened in Nova City, those people above us have shown no response whatsoever.”“They’ve been utterly indifferent to the situation here—almost as if they’re tacitly allo

“Very impressive. It’s clear everyone here is putting in tremendous effort.”Joseph spoke with evident approval.“At our base, only the truly exceptional earn the right to stand among us.”“Loyalty is the foundation—then comes capability and talent. All three are indispensable.”“Every one of them is a rare find.”Brian Adams introduced them with unmistakable confidence.“It shows.”Joseph nodded.Just then, a car pulled up at the entrance of the base. Neil Foster stepped out and walked briskly toward Joseph and Brian Adams.“Young Master—good news!”Only when he drew near did Neil speak, his voice tinged with excitement.“Good news? What kind of good news?” Joseph asked.“Several well-known international master thieves have already entered Elysia. It’s safe to assume they’ve come for what we possess.”Neil Foster said, visibly pleased.“Thieves?”“So when assassination failed, they’ve turned to stealing instead?”“A clever adjustment. After all, if a theft fails, only one person dies
