Starry Sky Railway: Starting with a furious outburst at Aha

Chapter 14 Magician



Chapter 14 Magician

"Ouch!"

The train came to a stop, and both March 7th and Star, who were standing in the middle, fell down without exception.

Having already prepared himself to "faint," Zhou Yuan, who was lying on the sofa, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up straight.

He did not enter the black space just now.

“How inexplicable…” Zhou Yuan looked out the car window and saw a large, white planet standing alone in the dark universe.

"Is this our goal?" March 7th climbed to the window. "It looks so cold."

“Yes, Arilo 6,” Himeko stood beside her, “I never expected it to turn out like this.”

“According to the think tank’s records, the Yalilo 6 was not covered by ice and snow hundreds of years ago,” Dan Heng said.

"Ah, what exactly happened?" March 7th scratched his head in confusion, then suddenly saw something and waved to the distance, saying, "Train conductor, you've finally arrived."

Everyone looked in that direction and saw a long-eared doll walking out from one end of the carriage.

The doll, dressed in red, wearing a hat shaped like a train engine, and with a pocket watch at its waist, is none other than the train conductor, Pam.

“Space readings are abnormal, orbit synchronization has failed!” Pam walked up to the group. “The docking time has been extended indefinitely.”

“Oh right, I haven’t introduced him yet,” March 7th said. “This is the train conductor, Pam. He’s the one who decides how the train moves!”

"Train conductor~ This is Xing, and this is Zhou Yuan. They are both new passengers on the Starry Sky Train."

"Are you new here?" Pam walked up to the two of them and stopped. "Listen up, when you get on the train, if you're a dragon, you have to coil up; if you're a tiger, you have to cower. Don't think you're special, Pam. You have to follow the rules of the train."

Okay... the slut's statement... Zhou Yuan knew that his appearance still had an impact on the world, so he wasn't too surprised by Pam's statement.

"By the way, conductor, why are you wearing that uniform again?" March 7th asked. "Do you think we didn't make it look good for you?"

"Ahem, March 7th passenger, this is the train conductor in Liweinepa."

March 7th chuckled twice: "Don't take it seriously, it's just joking with you. It actually really likes new passengers."

"..." Upon hearing this, Pam paused for a moment, then walked to the train window with her hands behind her back. "Pam's been exposed..."

“So why aren’t you wearing it?” March 7th leaned closer. “Weren’t you quite happy when we took those artistic photos?”

"The preliminary test results for the star orbit anomaly are in," Walter said as he approached.

March 7th covered her mouth: "It can't be the one I'm thinking of, can it?"

"That's right, it's the star core."

"It's that again!" March 7th sighed, rubbing his forehead in annoyance.

"Again? Are there many of these?" Xing asked.

“This isn’t the first time we’ve encountered this situation,” Himeko replied. “Every time a star core crashes, it brings about dramatic changes to civilization and the ecosystem.”

"The transformation of Yalilo 6 into an icy planet is probably inextricably linked to this."

"Then what are we waiting for?" Xing smiled, pulled out a baseball bat and pointed it at Yalilo, "Let's find out that Star Core!"

"To be so proactive, truly a pioneer who embodies the spirit of exploration!" March 7th praised.

"Then, let me swallow that star core, and then swallow another one, and we can synthesize a two-star star core, and then a three-star one..." Xing described his grand plan.

"Hey, how did you come up with such an unreliable method?!" Zhou Yuan was dumbfounded; he felt like he couldn't keep up with Xing's wild imagination.

"I just got the inspiration from a little game. I'm a genius, right?" Xing said, showing Zhou Yuan his phone's homepage. Among a bunch of apps that speed up or clean up junk files, one app's name stood out: Merge Watermelon!

"*Earth swear word*, the giant watermelon is still chasing me!" Zhou Yuan could only marvel at the wonders of the world, then patted Xing on the shoulder with a complicated expression:

"Let's settle this, who can settle this with you?"

“This…it’s best not to do that,” Himeko said with a helpless smile. “However, we really have to lend a hand. After all, without solving this star core problem, there’s no way we can even talk about expansion.”

"Xing, Zhou Yuan, I hope you can go on this pioneering trip with San Yueqi and Dan Heng."

"Himeko, aren't you coming?"

“The train needs someone to look after it, otherwise Pam will be lonely.”

"What? I won't!" Pam turned away haughtily when she heard her own name called.

"We will definitely come back safely, we definitely will." Zhou Yuan nodded solemnly to Ji Zi and promised.

"I believe you."

"By the way, do you want to change your outfits before you set off?" Himeko suggested, looking at Hoshi and Zhou Yuan's attire. "After all, you represent the Starry Sky Train this time."

Zhou Yuan looked at his white shirt, which was covered in battle damage from being shot by Kafka's gun and hit by the Doomsday Beast, and nodded with satisfaction.

Led by Himeko, the two arrived at the train crew's mysterious cloakroom.

"These are men's clothes, and those are women's clothes. Feel free to choose, it's free!" Himeko said.

Zhou Yuan observed the clothes on the clothes rack. Perhaps because the Himeko home planet was similar to Earth, these clothes were no different from normal clothes on Earth.

There were casual clothes and work clothes in various styles. Zhou Yuan hesitated between the two sets of clothes for a long time, then an idea popped into his head, and he finally took off one of the sets.

It was a sharp black suit, looking elegant and mysterious. Zhou Yuan believed that wearing it would make him elegant as well.

"Good taste, but unfortunately this set isn't suitable for combat," Himeko commented.

Zhou Yuan laughed and joked:

"Actually, I'm not good at fighting."

He went to the fitting room and put on a pure black suit. The size was just right, perfectly highlighting his broad shoulders and wasp waist, as if it were tailor-made for him.

After changing into comfortable black leather shoes, Zhou Yuan walked around in front of the vanity mirror and felt quite satisfied.

"This is the one."

As Zhou Yuan walked out of the fitting room, Ji Zi's eyes lit up: "It suits you surprisingly well. I didn't expect there to be such a handsome guy hidden in our train crew."

"Clothes make the man," Zhou Yuan said modestly, "and I've also hidden a beautiful woman among them."

As she spoke, Hoshino, carrying a formal dress, emerged from the fitting room. She shook her head and said to Himeko:

"Sister Himeko, I don't like wearing these. Can you mend this one I'm wearing?"

Xing was wearing the train crew uniform that Zhou Yuan had given her. She looked like she had been through many battles, and there were even burn marks on the hem of her clothes from who-knows-where.

Himeko said, puzzled, "That's possible, but aren't there brand new identical items in the dressing room?"

“This fits me perfectly, I can’t live without it,” Xing replied with a smile.

After a few minutes, Xing's clothes were repaired and looked brand new, and the three of them returned to the carriage.

As soon as he entered, March 7th started shouting and yelling:

"Oh, so this is the legendary Miss Xing. She really... doesn't seem to have changed much."

Her gaze then fell on Zhou Yuan, and she suddenly rested her chin on her hand, deep in thought: "Your outfit seems to be... that thing again."

"Oh, right! Wait for me a moment." She clapped her hands in sudden realization, hurriedly ran away, and returned holding a black silk hat.

She placed the hat on Zhou Yuan's head and nodded in satisfaction: "That's right! Can you do that gesture again, just like that!"

As he spoke, March 7 raised his hand behind his head. Zhou Yuan immediately understood. With his strength restored, he did not refuse March 7's request. He reached his hand behind his head and pinched it together, and a reddish light cone appeared out of thin air.

"That's it, haha." March 7th excitedly raised his camera and started snapping away. "You're like a magician now, the kind who can pull all sorts of things out of a hat!"

Seeing that someone had finally understood his ingenious idea, Zhou Yuan immediately burst into laughter: "Hahahaha, deal the cards!!!"
