Chapter 56 Cross-server Chat

Ladio said calmly, "No need for compliments; our time is precious."

At this point, the camera focuses on Screw Gum.

"Besides, it seems somewhat humorous to me to talk about the best of ordinary people in front of a genius."

Then Latios turned around and began to "interrogate" Star about the details of his last encounter with the Black Tower.

Xing recalled, "It seems like... I was walking Alan's dog?"

Sensing the tense atmosphere, Estella put her hands on her hips to ease the tension: "What! You and Alan are walking Pepe without me?"

Ladio ignored him and continued, "Stop playing dumb, think about it carefully."

Bullet comments:

"Aista is so cute, and she has such high emotional intelligence!"

"His name is Dr. Truth, but he looks more like a stern scholar."

"The professor's abilities are definitely genius-level; it's just that he hasn't been noticed by the erudite scholar."

"So, how did Xing faint?"

......

The Immortal Boat of Luofu, the Divine Strategy Palace.

The seat that originally belonged to the general was now occupied by a curious white fox.

But Jingyuan, who was standing to the side, had no objections.

Dan Heng stood silently to the side.

Yanqing, who had just returned from training, also looked puzzled.

"I was piloting the Starship, rushing towards that fleeting moment..." Bai Heng chattered on, recounting everything she had experienced.

"Just when I thought I would never see you again, a miraculous scene unfolded—a giant white hand appeared out of thin air, and for a moment, space and time suddenly froze!!!"

"Then, that big white hand lifted me up like a chick, and at that moment I felt dizzy."

Bai Heng's description of everything is exaggerated, or perhaps not exaggerated at all.

Finally, I appeared in front of Danfeng, with a handsome young man lying next to me, greeting me.

"You even asked me if I wanted to join the gacha pool... What does that mean?" Bai Heng asked, puzzled.

Jing Yuan: "..."

Dan Heng: "..."

The latter said, "Ignore him, Lin Lin was just joking. That big hand is just his trick."

The second half was addressed to Jingyuan.

"Danfeng, have you been reincarnated? Why is your hair so short now? Jingyuan has grown so tall, he looks a bit old! Is Yingxing still around? What time is it? Where's Jingliuliu? Let's get together for a few drinks tonight!"

Bai Heng, who had been holding back for a long time, blurted out a whole bunch of deadly questions.

......

The story continues.

The scene changes as Xing recounts her memories.

Several systems in the past.....

Black Tower Office.

Black Tower pleaded, "...Oh, and do me one more thing. That artifact is lost, and I can't just leave it there."

"It's a kind of [unclear], without a physical form, but with life."

Bullet comments:

"Star: Look, Professor, I'm really running errands!"

"No? You even need to recall your own memories?"

"Hilarious! I'm already being lenient by not letting you collapse on the ground and pass out!"

"Actually, it's not impossible. A good night's sleep will solve everything! Everyone'll be happy!"

"No physical form, but with life... a ghost???"

"Why is there garbled text? Could it be the aftereffects of Nguyen Mai's 'anti-vomiting potion'?"

"Something indescribable!"

......

Star: "■■■■?"

Black Tower continued, "Do a good job."

"I need to go out and need someone's help. You can ask Está."

Then Xing came to the side of the memory bubble, where there were two staff members.

Wen Shiqi: "Hey, Brother Cha, what brings you here? Long time no see, I've missed you so much!"

Emily: "No, no, it's fine."

Wen Shih-chi: "That has to be absolutely perfect."

"After all, as long as the money is there, everything is easy to handle."

"This is the account you requested. It's clean and has a direct connection to the intranet without any issues."

Emily: "Okay, okay, just say what you need to say."

Wen Shiqi: "You think too highly of me. I'm just someone who does internal sales and makes some money on the side."

"It's just a small-scale operation, nothing serious."

"If you succeed in the 'academy,' and become rich and powerful, don't forget me!"

Emily suddenly exploded: "How many times? How many times has this happened?! You old fool, don't push your luck..."

Bullet comments:

"Hahaha, Emily talks like that, she's a follower of the Star Cult, huh?"

"Why are these two talking so incoherently?"

"The memory confusion might be a side effect of the 'retroviral drug'."

"It's like piecing together the conversations you hear to form a new one."

"So, these two aren't having a conversation! Emily wasn't so mean after all!"

Fun fact: This girl is the younger sister of the female protagonist in the story "To the Dim Star".

......

Subsequently, Xing found the relevant memories of "Estella's Troubles" based on memory associations.

The scene changes.

Base section.

Estelle thought for a moment: "...Hmm, a strange object that has no physical form but is alive?"

"Sorry, I have no clue."

"Perhaps Sinkel and [unclear] know something. They're nearby. I suggest you ask them."

Seeing this, Xing eavesdropped on the conversation of the clerks around him.

The terrified clerk cried out, "I...I saw it! The moment that person disappeared!"

"With a snap, not even a bone was left."

The bewildered clerk: "W-what should we do? He doesn't seem to be faking it."

The slacking-off clerk said, "That's enough, trust your colleagues, leave it to the professionals."

"Have you finished all your work?"

Bullet comments:

"What's going on? A sudden appearance of a person?"

"It seems that not only the Black Tower dolls have gone missing, but some of the staff members have also disappeared."

No wonder Estelle looks so troubled.

"Wasn't it in the preview PV? Estella was covered in blue flames."

"Who's so brave? Daring to touch the young lady?"

"Maybe it's gone by now? (doge.jpg)"

......

Xing came to the other side, where an old woman and a bespectacled clerk were talking.

Esther: "Tsk tsk tsk, look at this little girl, how well-behaved and lovely she is."

"Academy" researcher: "Okay, okay, okay, are we that close? How's the matter going?"

Esther: "Oh dear, what do you have to be humble about in front of this old woman like me?"

"If you ask me, among all the young people in the secret document department, none of them can match your speed and efficiency."

"The Society" researcher: "I trust your competence."

"Why don't you consider it? Once this matter is settled, you can leave with me?"

Esther: "Look at these stacks of documents. I didn't know that young man was so clueless, writing such small characters."

"I'm getting old, and my eyesight is failing. How about you..."

"The Society" researcher: "Sure, just watch, we'll give you something exciting these next few days."

"The big one is coming!"

Bullet comments:

"Wait! This dialogue matches up!"

"These two, taken individually, are now paired with the two from the previous scene!"

"So this is the real Cha Ge! I've been looking for you for so long!"
