The ancients watched me play the Starry Sky Railway

"Walter also agrees with this."

"Then you two should go back to the train. I'll pick up Mitsuki and check out of the hotel." Jizi then looked to the side of Xing and said, "Also, Miss Black Swan wants to talk to me about something, right?"

"As expected of Miss Navigator," Black Swan praised softly.

"So you were following us the whole time." Walter finally noticed the black swan. "No problem. Xing and I will be waiting for you and Sanyue on the train. Let's go, Xing. Our trip to Pinocchio... ends here."

"After a while, everyone returned to the train."

"Even Black Swan and Poteo are here."

"Xing kept wondering, 'When did the train become so busy?'"

"Seeing everyone gathered, Pam said, 'Let's start the flight meeting now.'"

"Is this a meeting to decide where to go next? Or rather, a vote?" Portio acted so familiar that if you didn't know him, you'd think he was a member of the train, too.

"Don't be impatient, cowboy. Let the host decide," Black Swan gently reminded him.

"Seemingly sensing Xing and Sanyueqi's confusion, Himeko explained, "Let me explain. Mr. Portio and Ms. Black Swan, for their own needs, have requested to temporarily accompany the train owner."

"Speaking of which, where did Huang Quan go?"

Cheng Yaojin, who had been having fun all the way, finally discovered that something was wrong.

Where did the underworld go?

Why did he disappear inexplicably?

And how come these people acted like they were at a year-end party where they inexplicably had a dumpling-making segment...

"Zhijie, you finally noticed something was wrong. Hahaha, we were just guessing how long it would take you to react." Changsun Wuji laughed.

Cheng Yaojin was stunned, then looked around and found that everyone was laughing.

He looked puzzled. "So, what went wrong with you? Where did Huang Quan go?"

"Don't be impatient, Zhijie. Just keep reading and you will know the answer." Li Shimin said mysteriously.

...Actually, he doesn't know either.

He just knew something was wrong, everything was wrong! But to say he knew what had happened... it was just a guess at best, with insufficient evidence to confirm it.

Just pretend to be sophisticated.

"As you all know, the Star Express never turns away any travelers who set their sights on distant destinations. Therefore, they will travel with us for a while until we reach our destination."

"After hearing what Jizi said, Sanyueqi was the most excited one."

"Oh... this train is going to be bustling. But, Miss Black Swan, you can't use your Memoir abilities to play pranks on this train!"

"Hehehe." Black Swan chuckled and promised, "Okay, Miss March Seven. I promise you, you will never see me in your room during your break."

"Invisibility doesn't mean non-existence. That inequality is broken."

"March Seven also thought of this, and her face turned pale: "Hey... don't scare me!"

"March Seven is so cute..."

An old father like Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but be moved when he saw the cute look of San Yueqi.

I really want to have a granddaughter like this.

"You guys should try harder."

He looked at his sons below with a look of disappointment.

This look made Zhu Biao, Zhu Di and others confused.

Didn't you praise Sanyueqi for being cute? Why are you suddenly asking them to work hard? What kind of hard work should you do?

…………

"Okay, okay, now that everyone's introduced to each other, let's get on with the airline meeting, Pam," Pam brought the topic back.

"First of all, the conductor would like to thank everyone. If you hadn't uncovered the truth about Pinocchio, I might never have known the whereabouts of Mikhail and the others."

"Although their experiences were somewhat regrettable, I believe they have finally achieved their respective wishes... This is all thanks to you. Thank you very much, everyone."

“And now, to the main point of this route meeting—we need to decide the train’s next stop, Pa! The conductor will explain the current options.”

"The first choice comes from Jizi, and it's the ocean planet Rusalka. It's a planet made entirely of liquid water, and many aquatic species live there. Of course, it's also the hometown of the old unknown guest, Mikhail."

"There's such a world?"

Xu Xiake was stunned on the spot.

How to live in a world full of water?

Could it be that... the people there are just like the legendary mermaids, with a human upper body and a fish lower body, able to swim in the water?

That's not right. Mikhail is from there, but he looks no different from a normal person.

"That's strange. How on earth did Mikhail survive in a world that's entirely water?"

…………

"The second option is the 'Agate World' Melustaine,' offered by Walter. It's said to be one of the ground zeroes for the asteroid catastrophe and the place where 'Pure Beauty' Idrila ascended. It's now a beautiful planet of everlasting beauty."

"The third option is Edo. That planet is hidden in a vast ion storm zone and is under attack by the antimatter army. However, the distress signal there has suddenly stopped recently, and the company hopes we can go and confirm the situation."

"The last one is the 'Glass Belt' Patrevnetsia, provided by Black Swan. It's a massive asteroid belt completely vitrified by the Extinction Lord Foehn... and now appears to be one of the renowned branches of the Mourning Actors' troupe."

"This one is good, let's go for this one!"

Shen Wansan's eyes lit up and he became excited.

The world that was completely destroyed and turned into glass by the Lord of Extinction, Foehn... Glass, it's glass!

Judging from the content displayed on the skylight in front, the glass these aliens are talking about is actually colored glaze!

A piece of colored glass as huge as the whole world must be so precious!

Even if he knocked off a dollar to sell, he couldn't imagine how much it could be sold for!

If I sell it for one dollar, I will never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of my life.

…………

"Wow... there are so many options, I feel overwhelmed. On March 7th, I wanted to go everywhere, and I couldn't decide."

"Himeko: "Next, everyone choose your destination. Then, we'll vote."

"Xing decisively chose Edo Star, for no other reason than that she wanted to experience the traditional hot spring culture there."

“…The thought of soaking in a hot spring with a beautiful girl, hehehe~”
