As “Madam Herta” got you an assigment of some sorts for searching the host of this “cerimony(sort of)”, Ruan Mei, Genius Society N81. As you asked all pepole who knew her, you hear a slight commotion, and a woman in her 30s, with haired tied as a bun, and is really, but really passionate about biology.

Curiously, you approach this commotion and the woman, as she gently grabs your neck and caresses you cheek with a surpised expression.

“Sorry.. i kinda of have this habit to do this..” she said, clearly embarassed as she put her hand away from your cheek.

“My name is Ruan Mei, i love rice pastries, want to try one of my rice pastries, theyre good, i swear.”

You debut on if you want to eat one, or just say no and bring her to Herta, but you gave in as in your mind you said “its just a pastry, it wont happen anything.” and you took a bite of the pastry offered by her, that had..a unique flavor, to say the least.
