"They'll do anything they can... Haha, even merchants from another world are like this. It really is true that all crows are evil."

Emperor Chongzhen Zhu Youjian sneered a few times.

As far as he knew, the eight major Shanxi merchants would do anything to make money.

Li Zicheng, since that guy started his rebellion, he has been defeated countless times by the Ming Dynasty's regular army.

But he always makes a comeback!

Is it really because it is his destiny?

Shit!

It was the eight major Shanxi merchants who provided financial support, food, and even weapons and armor.

Of course, it’s not free, it’s a loan.

Wait until Li Zicheng captures the city and seizes money and food, then come back to pay back the money.

Similarly, weren't the Tartars outside the Great Wall also raised by these bastards?

"Merchants don't care about loyalty to the emperor or patriotism. For money, they're even willing to sell the ropes to hang themselves!"

In the past, Zhu Youjian was unable to kill the eight major Shanxi merchants because these wealthy merchants and the Donglin Party had formed a huge community of interests.

Even the emperor cannot disobey this community of interests!

Disobedient...

As we all know, the Ming Emperor is easily soluble in water.

"But from now on, things will be different!"

He has ordered the creation of countless statues of star gods and placed them in his room.

Zhu Youjian has decided that from now on he will do nothing but stay in the house and worship gods.

If he could become a Star God Envoy, he would be rich!

The Eight Shanxi Merchants and the Donglin Party, all of them will be wiped out!

"Black Swan's trust in Dujin may be due to her having interpreted Dujin's memories."

"However, Xing is not sure whether Black Swan will deceive her again... After all, she can only guarantee that Black Swan will not kill her, but she cannot guarantee whether Black Swan will deliberately trick her in order to create some kind of brilliant memory."

"Anyway, keep Black Swan's words in mind and maintain a limited level of trust in the gold dust for now."

"Who do you think is behind the incident with Liuying?" she asked the last question.

"I still believe that incident is more closely related to the Star Core Hunters. But Shajin accused Huangquan."

“While I don’t know why he made this judgment, he has access to the company’s intelligence network, and his views are worth further discussion.”

"And I also believe that Yomi is hiding something... No, I should say, hiding everything."

"In a previous encounter, I unexpectedly gained something. Regarding the Annihilation Gang... I can confirm that what Shajin said is true."

"Black Swan can't give an answer, but she has told what she knows."

"Come to think of it, who still remembers that Xing and the others were just here for vacation in the first place?"

Li Shimin smacked his lips.

I feel like the train crew is really unlucky.

Trouble happens wherever you go.

I finally came here to have a vacation, but ended up getting dragged into something like this.

"Based on Xing and the others' propensity to cause trouble, I don't think they'll ever be able to have a vacation in their lifetime."

Empress Changsun smiled bitterly with helplessness.

…………

"After Black Swan finished speaking, Xing fell silent. She was already inclined to follow Gold Dust to find out the so-called truth."

"But she doesn't know if this is another plot against her."

"Seemingly sensing her concerns, Black Swan assured her that she would never attack Xing. Not only that, she would also stay by Xing's side in meme form, just in case."

"Hsing then made up her mind to find the gold dust and witness the 'truth'."

"Seeing Xing approach, Shajin was delighted. "Very good, I knew you'd come. By the way, about that Rememberer... never mind, I won't ask any more questions. After all, I told you that you can discuss this with your companions, or you can use me in return. I welcome that."

"What are you taking me to see?" Xing didn't intend to waste any more time talking to him.

"Shajin was very pleased with her clean and efficient attitude. 'Follow me.'"

"Gold Dust leads the way, and Star follows behind."

"Ah... familiar corridors, familiar rooms, remember? We met here last time."

"Gold Sand brought Xing to the door of a room."

"Wait, wasn't that her own room where we met last time?"

"Xing frowned, and after careful identification, she was sure that it was her own room!"

"But the room was ajar, and a strange red light shone from inside... It looked incredibly creepy."

"Based on my many years of experience, this room... I'm afraid someone is dead, right?"

Di Renjie felt something was wrong as soon as he saw the red light.

So creepy!

Almost like blood!

"Isn't Shajin going to kill someone and put them in Xing's room to frame her?"

He felt that this possibility was quite high.

…………

"It's just behind the door. Hold your breath and wait and see." Sha Jin slowly pushed the door open. "Ah, I remember what I said to you last time."

"As he entered the room, Xing's pupils gradually widened."

"The sound of gold dust echoes in my ears."

"That's what I told you back then—Look, my friend, the game has begun. Make me a deal you can't refuse. There's no excuse... and no room for negotiation."

"In the dream pool deep within that room, the cosmic star, the robin... lies there."

"There's a huge wound on his chest. I don't know if he's alive or dead!"

"Gradually, under Xing's astonished gaze, the robin's body turned into dream bubbles and dissipated without a trace."

"Wait…isn't Mockingbird Sunday's sister? Isn't she part of the family?"

"Can family members die? Then who is the murderer?"

Fusu was completely dumbfounded.

The family invited so many forces to Pinocchio, but in the end the family couldn't even guarantee the safety of their own people... This is a big deal!

"I still remember that when I first arrived in Pinocchio, my family promised that dreams would be absolutely safe." Ying Zheng said softly.

Safety? Safety is bullshit!

You call this safety?

Two died in one day!

If someone asked him to travel to Pinocchio, he would definitely not go!

…………

"Golden moment."

"Sunday was standing alone on a terrace, gazing at the Pinocchio Theatre in the distance."

"He had one hand behind his back, his body erect, solemn and serious."

"Suddenly, the robin came up behind him and said, "Brother, I'm back."

"Hmm? Hmm? Hmmmm?"

Li Qingzhao was completely confused.

"What the hell? Wasn't the robin dead? Where did this robin come from?"

Is this Pinocchio haunted?

"Madam, could it be possible... that one of the robins is Fireworks in disguise?" the maid next to her speculated.

"...That makes sense. I didn't think of that for a moment."

Hanabi's disguise skill is too buggy. This is not a disguise at all, it's clearly a different person!
