Bab 27: Unexpected meeting
After dining at the restaurant, Lolita gave them all a new look so they can bend in with the event
Lolita worked her magic and gave them all a stunning transformation.
Aaron was impeccably dressed in a sleek navy blue suit that accentuated his figure, paired with a crisp white shirt.
Serena embraced her new look with elegance, donning a captivating wine-colored dress that draped gracefully around her form.
The dress accentuated her curves in all the right places, and the color complemented her complexion beautifully.
Max stood there, exuding confidence in his tailored blazer that added a touch of sophistication to his appearance.
"Wow, you look stunning!" Max complimented Lolita, his eyes fixed on her.
Lolita herself was a picture of elegance and style, wearing a dazzling pink formal gown.
She brushed off Max's compliment, directing her gaze toward Aaron and Serena. "So, what's the plan exactly?" Max asked.
"We'll go in the tower in the team of two" Lolita explained calmly, taking a sip of water. She then turned her attention to Max.
"While Aaron and this girl will be seated in the auction house while I and this guy will head to the item house."
Max glanced around discreetly before whispering, "Wait, hold on. Are you saying we're going to steal while they enjoy?" Lolita rolled her eyes in response.
Serena's annoyance was palpable as she commented, "So, this is your grand plan?"
Lolita simply nodded, her expression serious. "Ah, what an ass of a plan you've loli, Loli,"
Serena remarked sarcastically.
Lolita took another sip of her drink before heading towards the entrance of the towering building.
"Alright, here, you both go in," she said, handing them each a ticket. Serena's curiosity got the better of her.
"Wait wait, what exactly we are going to do there??" she asked, her eyes wide with anticipation.
Aaron, on the other hand, simply stood there and listened.
"Miss Lolita, are we really going alone?" Max questioned, confused.
Lolita gestured for him to follow as she turned left.
Meanwhile, Aaron and Serena made their way towards the entrance.
"What the hell we are even supposed to do there!?" Serena whispered to Aaron as they walked side by side.
As they approached the entrance, Aaron's chest tightened, and his device's vibrations grew more intense.
Beads of sweat formed on his forehead.
Concerned, Serena asked, "Are you okay?" Aaron nodded in response.
They reached the door, and as they crossed the threshold, the door's sensors picked up their passes from their pockets, granting them entry.
Inside, the space was bustling with activity.
As Serena and Aaron stepped into the expansive interior of the towering JavaCity skyscraper.
Its sleek metallic exterior shimmered under the glow of the city's neon lights, capturing the dynamic.
As they entered, the automatic doors gracefully closed behind them, isolating them from the city's noise and immersing them in their own cocoon.
Their destination lay on the 67th floor. In order to reach it, they stepped into a roomy elevator.
The elevator's walls were adorned with touch-responsive panels, softly illuminated by a calming azure light.
With a gentle hum, the elevator started its ascent, the world outside transforming into a blur of lights as they journeyed higher and higher.
Finally, the elevator glided to a halt, and the doors parted with a soundless swish.
Before Serena and Aaron unfolded a breathtaking panorama: the 67th floor of the tower, adorned with a mix of history and artistry.
Intriguing portraits lined the walls, capturing the essence of Javacity's past.
Serena's gaze lingered on a particular portrait showcasing the history of the city, featuring an old image of a place called Toronto.
Another portrait that caught her attention was one that highlighted one of the legendary manga creators behind "One Place."
Lost in thought as she admired the paintings before them, Serena's thoughts were interrupted by Aaron's question.
"Serena someone's approaching!" he announced.
The footsteps of this unknown person grew closer, and the duo couldn't help but feel tense.
However, their fear dissipated when realized that it was a mere humanoid robot dressed in an elegant suit. "Welcome to the 12th Annual Javacity Auction!" The robot greeted.
"Kindly follow me, Madame and Sir, to your seats in the fifth row, seat number 5." For some reason, the robot knew exactly where their assigned seats were even without checking their tickets.
Serena and Aaron complied with the instructions and entered the auditorium. The auditorium was vast and exquisite, dominated by an impressive stage adorned with rich red curtains.

As they settled into their seats in the fifth row, someone gently tapped Aaron's shoulder.
Turning to look, Aaron was taken aback—it was him, the person who had swiftly dealt with a humanoid right before his eyes back in the city.
"It's been quite a while, hasn't it?" the man said with a smile, prompting a sense of wonder from both Aaron and Serena.
