Chapter 162: Superhuman Research Association
"Miss Ayane, I'm here for Mr. Angel. I want to book him for the night."
Ten days later, Elizabeth returned to the Licai Club on Shuhui Street this morning, traveling light. The moment she stepped into the lively, neon-lit hall, she told Miss Ayane, who had come up to greet her, that she wanted to book a host.
This was both her strategy to get closer and, perhaps, the Master's intention.
The Master's guidance had mentioned "learning," and during her days operating in Kabukicho, the handsome Angel was the only one associated with the concept.
"I'm sorry," Miss Ayane said with a smile. "Angel is away on business."
"Oh." That was unfortunate, Elizabeth thought. "When will he be back?"
"Hard to say. Someone booked him to keep them company, and he won't be back until they've had enough fun," Miss Ayane said. "Should I get someone else for you? We have other excellent hosts here."
Keeping someone company? Elizabeth understood. Some female client must have booked Mr. Angel for an outing.
It made sense. Mr. Angel was a DOLL; this was his actual job.
