After the concert, a Latin-American lady, whom the spies later acknowledged to be the manager of the LOL, appeared on stage to make a speech.
演唱會結束後，一名後來嬌娃才知道原來是ＬＯＬ團隊的經紀人的拉丁美洲女子走到台上致詞。
"Hello everybody!" the woman spoke in a low-pitched voice, "For those who don't know me, I am Cynthia Andrews, the manager of the LOL. I would like to thank everyone for attending this concert, without you, it wouldn't be as successful! Thank you!"
「大家好啊！」那個女人用低沈的聲音說。「如果你們不知道我是誰的話～我是辛西雅，安德魯～ＬＯＬ團隊的經紀人。我想謝謝大家來參加這次的演唱會，若不是有你們的支持，這次的演唱會不會那麼的成功。謝謝大家！」
"Is it just me, or that woman looks very fishy?" Claire whispered to Eliza, who didn't reply.
「是我的錯覺？還是那個女人看起來非常可疑？」Claire 對 Eliza 小聲地說道，可是後者卻沒答覆。
As the spies were walking home from the concert, thousands of thoughts suddenly appeared in Claire's mind.
嬌娃們從演唱會會場走回家的路上，一堆聯想在 Claire 的腦海裡湧現。
"I think the LOL team acts really weirdly, I mean, it's not their dance moves weren't good enough, but it's just really strange, it's hard to describe." Claire said.
「我覺得ＬＯＬ團隊的動作亂詭異的。不是他們舞跳得不好，而是，怎麼說呢？動作就是怪怪的！」Claire 說。
Eliza, who had been unusually quiet all this while, as if woken from a dream, shouted furiously, "How dare you comment on them like this? You've got no right! They're the best band ever! Shut up!"
直到那時都一直保持沈默的 Eliza 彷彿從夢中醒了過來一般，忽然大聲罵道：「你竟敢這樣批評我的偶像！妳沒有資格！她們是全宇宙最棒的音樂團隊了！你給我閉嘴！」
Claire, extremely shocked by Eliza's sudden exclamation, remained silent for the rest of the journey.
Claire 被 Eliza 激烈的反應給嚇了一大跳，之後的路途也都選擇保持沈默。
When Claire got home, she called their boss- Tom and informed him about Eliza's weird actions.
Claire 到家後便馬上打給湯姆，通知他有關 Eliza 怪異的行為。
"This case seems really fishy already," Claire explained on the phone, "Not only does the actions of the LOL are extremely strange, but their manager's high-profile appearance and the weird reaction of Eliza are also simply ridiculous."
「案子已經非常可疑了。」Claire 解釋道。「不僅ＬＯＬ成員的行為舉止極度奇怪，經紀人高調出場以及 Eliza 的誇張行為簡直都是疑點重重。」
"Did you notice anything suspicious during the concert?" Tom inquired.
「你在演唱會現場有發現什麼可疑的嗎？」湯姆問道。
"Nothing much!" Claire replied, "To be honest, I wasn't even paying attention to their performance, as I was always looking around to see if I could find any clues. What I've noticed is that their fans seemed to be idolising them to the point that it's like they have been hypnotised. I mean it's natural to idolise, but their way is just too overboard! Oh, by the way, I secretly took some photos during the performance. I'll send them to you so the headquarters can take a close examination."
「這點兒倒是沒有！」Claire 答道。「老實說，我跟本就沒有專心在聽演唱會，我全程都在東張西望，看能不能找到什麼線索。我唯一發現的是粉絲們對於ＬＯＬ的崇拜程度簡直難以形容。崇拜是正常～可是他們已經到了膜拜的程度，似乎是被催眠了一般。噢，對了！我在演唱會現場有偷拍了一些相片，我等會兒就傳給你，讓總部好好的檢查。」
"Thank you Claire, well done!" Tom responded, "Oh, the headquarters have just received news that the LOL is hosting this special performance, where it's like a special concert but in a space hub, which, I believe, is in order to fit the theme of 'meteors' in their newest song. The space hub is supposed to be acting as a simulation that people are being sent to space to watch the stars and meteors, etc, whilst their song is being sung in the background. However, there is something strange about this: it's that the tickets are not just easily bought, but has to be 'won' in a raffle; therefore, only a certain amount of people will be allowed the entrance. The headquarters have bought two tickets using a high price from certain individuals who had won the raffle for you two to go and investigate. And it will be tomorrow evening, which is Friday the thirteenth."
「謝謝你，Claire，做得好！」湯姆答道。「對了，總部剛剛也得到最新消息：ＬＯＬ要舉辦一場特別的表演，就是在太空梭裏舉辦演唱會。我想應該是為了配合他們的新曲子，有關流星雨的主題。太空梭只是一個道具，要模擬飛到外太空的感覺，一邊播放他們的曲子。然而，有一件奇怪的事：門票不是用買的，而是用抽籤抽到的，所以有限制人數。總部好不容易才大費周章以高價從幸運抽中的粉絲那裡買回了兩張門票，讓你們兩個去調查。演唱會就是明天晚上，也就是十三號星期五。」
"Oh no!" Claire exclaimed, "Tomorrow is the night of the meteor showers. Looks like I'm gonna have to miss it this time..."
「噢不！」Claire 驚叫道。「明晚就是流星雨發生的時間啊！看來，我沒望看到了！」
"Don't worry, you'll get to see it in the space hub!" Tom replied. "Good luck with your mission!"
「別擔心！你在太空梭上也能看到呀！」湯姆答道。「祝任務順利喔！」
Therefore, on the following evening, Claire and Eliza, with their tickets, arrived at the entrance of the 'space hub' of the LOL concert.
於是，隔天晚上，Claire 和 Eliza 便拿著門票來到了『太空梭』演唱會的門口。
The entrance of the space hub is shaped like that of a princess castle, very whimsical. A man in dark suit stood by the entrance, examining everyone's tickets.
太空梭的入口處設計得像一間公主城堡，非常的夢幻。一位西裝筆挺的男子站在門口驗票。
Both Claire and Eliza were extremely excited, but about different things. Claire was excited to see the meteor showers, and Eliza was excited to see her new favourite band.
Claire 和 Eliza 都非常興奮，只是興奮的事情不同。Claire 很高興能看到流星雨，而 Eliza 是很開心能看見自己最喜歡的偶像。
What will the spies encounter that evening?
嬌娃們那晚會遇到什麼事情呢？
