Chapter 550.
“Since you’ve come to your senses, I won’t waste words,” Josie said. “First question: Did Arthur give you anything special? For example, exquisite gems or anything strange?”
June thought for a moment.”Gems? He did have some. But he only let me see them once before taking them back. I was small then. He said he was keeping them safe for me until I grew up. In reality, even after I grew up, he never gave them to me. I didn’t care, though, because I had plenty of other gems. Does that count?”
“As for other strange things… wait, there actually was a weird box.
The corners of June’s mouth curled up. “I’ve actually kept it all this time. Because I couldn’t open it, I was curious about what was hidden
inside!”
“What? Do you want it?” June smiled.”It looks like we have a bargaining chip for our negotiation after all!”
“I’ll inspect the goods first, then we talk,” Josie said.
She knew it!
That old bastard definitely hadn’t told her the whole truth!
That box had to be something her mother, Valerie Vance, had brought from the future. It might even be the key to whether she could successfully reach Tier-8 or Tier-9-the key to fighting the Interstellar Marauders!
It was a good thing she had come here.
Otherwise, she really would have missed out!
June turned and went into the bedroom. She returned with a palm-sized box from a safe and placed it on the table.
“My life for this,” June said.”Otherwise, I’ll destroy myself along with the box. I’ve set a self-destruct mechanism on it. Without my password and voice command, one wrong entry will trigger its complete destruction!”
