Eclara City.
As soon as the plane landed.
Juniper received a call from Cybernetic Shadows. "Boss, there's news about your sixth sister."
Ever since their relationship went public, the members of Cybernetic Shadows automatically changed their form of address.
From Specter to Boss.
The Boss was her man, which meant Cybernetic Shadows practically belonged to her too.
It was basic social etiquette.
They understood.
Sixth sister?
Hearing this name, Juniper's heart trembled violently, and her fingers tightened involuntarily. "Where is she?"
After searching for so long, there was finally news.
"She, she..."
The subordinate stammered, unable to form a complete sentence.
"Can't get your tongue straight? Need me to help you?" Juniper's gaze instantly turned ice-cold, making the person shudder even through the phone.
"No need, Boss." The subordinate closed his eyes and forced himself to spit it all out. "According to the investigation records, there's a high probability that the sixth miss has passed away."
Passed away?
The pleasant surprise turned into a nightmare.
Juniper felt like her mind had been struck. Her ears rang, and her brain went blank.
She missed a step, her footing unsteady, and almost fell.
"Careful." Shanley caught her in time and asked with concern, "What's wrong? Whose call?"
"Cybernetic Shadows."
Juniper grabbed Shanley's hand, gripping it hard, her eyes somewhat dazed, her voice so hoarse it was barely audible. "They said my sixth sister... is dead?"
"What?"
Shanley was shocked, his thick brows furrowing deeply. "Could it be a misunderstanding? Don't worry, I'll take you to the base to ask."
"Okay."
Juniper's eyes reddened.

Cybernetic Shadows Headquarters.
The members of Binary Oracle were arguing with the people from Cybernetic Shadows:
"This news was found by Cybernetic Shadows, so naturally, you guys should be the ones to tell Specter."
