As far as the white-haired girl was concerned, she had gotten a companion to locate the elusive technologist... Well, until Bunga herself explicitly voiced the misunderstanding. [color=76c0f0][b]"Hmmm? Oh, I see, so you're not Japanese, yet you called Sukoro Jinga your countryman, that is a paradox."[/b][/color] The German girl pondered out loud, but ultimately shrugged her little shoulders, [color=76c0f0][b]"It doesn't matter, I'd still welcome an ally to assist me. I can assure you that you'll be rewarded for your efforts."[/b][/color] Her family had all the funds and resources in the world after all. The duo spent a few moments just wandering about from public facility to public facility around the area, Lucy continuing on her way to pester every student she met by repeating her question verbatim while Bunga used her enhanced auditory senses to pick up any relevant chatter far better than her shorter partner ever could. So far, however, their efforts bore no fruit, "No, I don't know where he's saying" and random chatters were everything the two received. ...so far anyway. Not speaking for Bunga, but Lucy showed no indication of giving up. For all of her faults, the German Polymath's capacity for perseverance and focus was legendary. She only stopped accosting students when Bunga spoke up once more, [color=76c0f0][b]"Then we should move to another location,"[/b][/color] Lucy was about to do exactly that until the Nusantaran Egoist distracted her with a topic that could've been done later, [color=76c0f0][b]"Lucretia von Konigsmahne, Technologist, Germany. I'm a polymath engineer."[/b][/color] She kept her reply terse as she all but pushed Bunga to continue with their task. Let's see if they'd have more luck now, only time could tell.
