Chapter 11: Top Secret Information

"Love System," she called out, her voice low but firm. There was no need to hold back since she was alone.

"Yes, Nnenna?" the system responded, its tone as neutral as always.

She took a deep breath and went straight to the point. "What can you tell me about that man?"

There was a noticeable pause, almost as if the system were weighing her request. Finally, its voice broke the silence. "Do you wish to exchange points for information?"

Her brows furrowed instantly. "I have to pay before I can get any details?"

"Not necessarily," the system replied, its tone unbothered. "You could always investigate on your own. But if you want to use my resources and get instant, accurate information, then yes, you'll need to pay."

"How many good points are we talking about?" she pressed, her voice tinged with annoyance.

"That depends entirely on what you want to know." The system's tone was almost casual, as if it were shrugging at her.

'Depends, huh?' Nnenna thought, narrowing her eyes. 'If I'm going to spend points, I have to make this worthwhile.'

After a moment of thought, she clenched her fists in determination. "Fine. Let's start simple. I want to know his name." His name would at least help her investigate.

But the system's next words shattered her thoughts of being clever.

Nnenna "..."

"What?! 59,450?! Are you kidding me?" Nnenna exclaimed, her voice rising in shock. "I didn't even ask for his life history or where he lives!"
