Chapter 26: Calculation

Yuka returned to Central Square, only to find the Alliance Army had already left.

With the blockade lifted, she found a five-star hotel, booked a suite, and then dove into the soft bedding of her room. Comfortably sighing, Yuka casually picked up her opticomputer. 

A new message notification was on the opticomputer. Yuka opened it and found it was from Black One. 

Black One: "Got some new info, you want it?"

Yuka replied: "Yes, cut the chatter."

Black One glanced at the woman behind him, who nodded. He continued messaging Yuka: "The Oniyon you gave me isn't enough for the info you want."

Yuka: "? Price hike on the spot?"

Black One: "Pneyon's out now, making Oniyon much less valuable."

"Isn't Pneyon just a product of Oniyon?" Yuka retorted, "I won't accept a price hike. Let's call off the deal."

Black One, reading Yuka's message, carefully observed his boss's expression.
