"Huang Quan was also wanted by the company? I suddenly feel that the company is quite brave, wanting everyone."

"But... I feel like this seems to highlight his strength even more."

Shi Nai'an suddenly felt that being wanted was quite exciting.

Just think about it, a person is wanted by the imperial court, but not only is he alive and well, he also ignores the wanted order. How amazing is that!

Moreover, the higher the bounty on a wanted person, the more powerful he is, doesn't it?

When two people start fighting, one party will say, "A certain family is offering a reward of 3000 taels!" The other party will say, "A certain family is offering a reward of 5000 taels!"

The difference is obvious!

"Water Margin is almost finished and can't be changed. I'll use this setting for the next book."

"I've got a name... Let's call it 'The Bandit King'!"

"And it could be linked to Water Margin... telling the story of a group of people seeking the treasure left behind by the former bandit king Song Jiang."

…………

"Maybe I can help you." Huang Quan suddenly said.

"What's your reason for doing this?" Sam asked, not understanding her intention.

"I often forget things, so I'm more accustomed to using 'feeling' to capture things rather than remembering. So..." Huang Quan looked at Sam steadily: "I know who is in that cold armor."

"Judging from what Huang Quan said, Sam is actually an old acquaintance?" Zhu Yuanzhang pondered. "I just don't know if this old acquaintance is Xing's old acquaintance or Huang Quan's old acquaintance."

"It shouldn't be someone Huang Quan knows well. When I saw Sam fighting her, he didn't hold back at all. It should be someone Xing knows well. Or even... maybe Liu Ying."

Queen Ma guessed based on her intuition.

"Liuying? But mother, isn't she dead?" Zhu Biao felt that this guess was too outrageous.

"Who can be sure that the dead one is the real Liuying?" Queen Ma asked in return, "Have you forgotten that outrageous disguise? Perhaps there are more than just those two people who can pretend to be someone else."

"So, there is a certain possibility." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.

…………

Huang Quan: "Well, are you willing to take off your armor and talk?"

"Not yet." Sam shook his head. "I don't need help, but I can give you a suggestion that will be better for both of you. If your goal is the 'Watchmaker's Legacy,' investigate the family. They not only concealed the existence of 'Death,' but also buried the past and truth of the dream."

Huang Quan: “I’m already doing that.”

"And the SkyTrain is not your enemy," Sam emphasized.

"I know that too... I just never thought I'd hear it from you." Huang Quan was quite surprised: "What happened next? Xing was taken away by the Black Swan. Are you going to look for her?"

"That's not necessary," Sam continued, shaking his head. "It's okay to tell you, but Elio only gave me one instruction: to get the SkyTrain to pursue the 'grand legacy'."

"I finally understand. Xing is 'marrying' into the Star Train, and the Star Core Hunters are her parents! Helping the Star Train gain benefits now is purely giving her a dowry."

Suddenly, someone in the crowd seemed to be thinking about something and said something shocking.

"Can you explain it this way? Good, good, you have some skills."

Everyone else was stunned.

But if you think about it carefully, it does seem to make sense.

Otherwise, why would the Star Core Hunter always help the Star Train?

It’s impossible that just because both organizations have the surname “Xing”, they are brothers and sisters, right?

…………

"...Alright." Since Sam didn't need help, Huang Quan didn't force it. "Before we part, can I ask you one more question?"

“Please go ahead.”

"Is there any part about me in your script? I want to know what kind of footnotes 'I' will leave in the future that fate foresees?"

“Unfortunately, not a word,” Sam replied.

"…Not surprising." Huang Quan sighed and turned away.

"Wait a minute," Sam stopped her. "I can't."

"What?" Huang Quan was puzzled.

"Your original question—do you still dream about those who died because of you?" Sam replied calmly, "I don't, never. I was born without the ability to dream. I live for the cold reality, for a little light, burning... burning continuously until I turn into ashes. So, I envy you."

"Really..." Huang Quan's eyes were complicated: "Then you are already living in the waking world."

"The pasts of these two people...I'm afraid they are both quite tragic."

Li Qingzhao had a feeling.

These two people were tragic characters whose relatives, friends, and compatriots...all died.

(Gold Dust: Add me, too. I feel the same way.)

…………

"Golden moment."

"Xing successfully reunited with Jizi, Walter, and Sanyueqi."

"We heard about Miss Firefly from Black Swan. But we didn't expect that even Miss Mockingbird..." March Seven's expression was very heavy."

"She was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to hear about someone's sudden death."

"I'm sorry I couldn't be with you then." Jizi looked at Xing tenderly, like an old mother.

"Reality is calm, but dreams are filled with undercurrents. It truly fulfilled the words of the Rememberer." Walter sighed, then cheered up: "Everyone, this is not the time to be depressed. We can still do what we can for them, such as...finding the murderer."

"The group is analyzing all the information they have so far."

"First, the family has decided to suppress the news of Robin's death. If this matter were to be exposed, it would inevitably cause an uproar."

"Secondly, there are the deaths of robins, fireflies... and possibly even others. These incidents have left the family overwhelmed, forcing us to request the help of the Star Train."

"After all, the most important thing for the family right now is to guard against those visitors with ill intentions... such as the company's gold dust."

"But Shajin is wary of Huangquan," Xing said.

"But based on what you've said... I feel like Shajin's reasons for accusing Miss Huangquan are quite subtle." Even Sanyueqi sensed something was amiss: "What's with the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind? Should I believe what he says?"

"At this point, the only one we can trust is probably ourselves." Jizi hit the nail on the head.

“I have a feeling… even after all that’s happened, we’re still swirling around in this vortex of ‘legacy,’ ” Walter said.

"Looks like we're going to have to play detective for real this time." San Yue Qi thought back to his last attempt at deducing about Rakshasa. It was a shame he couldn't do that this time."
