Mystery: When the Fool Meets the Masked Fool

Chapter 319 Iron Collapse Side Story: Mother's Day Special
P.S.: This is a side story; please skip it if you're not interested.

By the way, original storylines are too brain-draining, so there will only be one update today.

This is Xing's second month with the Star Train.

The great Galaxy Baseball Girl speedrunned the Space Station dungeon in three days, and then spent another twenty days successfully unlocking the Preservation Path. This morning, she just rode the Creation Engine Veil and rode Cocolia.

Today is a special Mother's Day, so perhaps the story of Bronya's mother could also be considered a kind of "Mother's Tribulation".

That's what Serres said.

It received unanimous praise from people, including the "shut up" robot and the food delivery robots that passed by.

But they almost got kicked off the train on March 7th.

It's a bit of a pity that it didn't work out.

"Pioneer passenger, what are you regretting?" the train conductor asked. "Unnamed passengers should get along well with each other!"

This talking folded-eared rabbit is the train conductor, as well as our leader and mascot. Before Mimi, he was the character with the most doujinshi in the Honkai Impact 3rd universe.

"Hey, why would someone draw a folded-eared rabbit pamphlet? And who is Mimi? How come we don't know her? Most importantly... why are your thoughts projected as subtitles, Xing?!" March 7's voice rang out from next to Xing, the two of them sitting side by side on the sofa.

Xing shook his head: "Perhaps it's because I'm a gray-haired mute, and I can only speak through subtitles."

"But can't you talk?"

Xing put on a very sad face, and three options appeared in front of her.

to be frank.

lie.

Let's change the subject.

Xing chose the third option, still presenting her idea through subtitles.

I don't know why, but time always seems to pass so quickly.

Play with the Mole Gang, clear the game in Arillow, play with the Mole Gang, throw a victory celebration, play with the Mole Gang again, complete side quests, find Clara to play with the Mole Gang together...

This long list of events should have taken five or six days, but it felt like it flew by.

It took so little time that it felt like reading only 49 words.

Did the priest speed up time? Damn it, when?

This is so interesting.

"You're not just changing the subject, you're completely ignoring me, aren't you?"

"It's okay, March. You're lovely even when you're beautiful on your own."

"Don't phrase 'ignore' in such an ambiguous way!"

"So what?" Xing launched the Bo Seoul attack.

Unfortunately, March 7th is also a day for intense surfing in Jimei.

I immediately picked up my newly bought ultra-high-definition camera, the Singer17 Pro Max, and decided to take a picture of Xingxian looking down and post it on Xiaohongshu with a hefty reward.

Hey, speaking of the new camera, what about the old one?

Old one?

I've kept the old March 7th memorial to myself.

At this moment, Xing lowered her head again, indicating that she didn't have time to play around with Miss March 7.

Right now, the great Star Core Lady is doing something difficult and sacred.

She is currently engaged in an online debate, resolutely fighting to protect the xylophone.

Having two xylophones, she was born with an invincible advantage.

It's like having two lives.

However, if the opponent's attack successfully breaks through the defense, the damage will be doubled.

There is giving and receiving; that is balance.

This is truly a remarkable discovery.

Xing felt he was worthy of attracting the attention of the [Balance] Star God, Mutual.

However, this was not the case. Xing thought it might be because her name was "Xing" instead of "Cheng," which was not symmetrical enough.

Xing continued the high-intensity laning phase.

With twice the power of the xylophone, I am invincible!

Witness the exhilarating combo attack of my Jifu party!

However, as the argument raged on, the user on the other end, whose username was "Lone Wolf," suddenly went offline.

Did I win? Xing wondered.

But then, the avatar on the other side changed to a purple spider.

Oh, looks like he got killed offline by Kafka's mom.

Hope everyone is okay.

Star's heartfelt wishes.

She is so kind.

Opening the profile page, even the signature has changed.

became:
Star Core Hunter Silver Wolf reminds you that the internet is not a lawless place; please be careful with your words.

Xing blinked and tilted her head.

Something just doesn't seem right.

Is this something a hacker with a $51 billion bounty should say?
Meanwhile, inside the Interstellar Peace Corporation.

Mr. Scott, who wished to remain anonymous, was demoted by the Responsibility Department for damaging the company's reputation by being hung in a "tortoise shell" position at the company's main entrance while wearing only his underwear.

But he didn't care.

Because he is the lone wolf of the Scott family, he will never be defeated by such petty tricks!

Victory and defeat are common occurrences in war. This time he made a mistake, but next time he will surely win back everything that belongs to him.

As he savored the verbal battle that had just taken place, he suddenly smiled crookedly.

That netizen who called himself "Face Takes the Big Move," do you really think you won?

joke!

I don't have a xylophone at all!

Hahaha!
Not only that, he also wants to use the exposure of this incident to seek greater benefits for himself!
This is the lone wolf of the Scott family!

However, even the most resilient soul will feel hopeless when faced with this stage of being condemned by everyone.

Scott felt the gazes around him and for a moment felt somewhat like he was looking at someone else.

This feeling of utter despair made him feel as if he could see his uncle in heaven beckoning to him...

He said……

What you love is your life.

An extremely dark will caused a certain bystander's mask to spin wildly. Sha99.

…………

Back on the train.

Prisoner Pam is giving a lecture while holding a picture book.

Except for Danheng, the train think tank administrator who was sleeping, everyone gathered in a circle around Pam to listen to her ask who was drawing his notebook.

The drawing is still about mecha fighting against a folded-eared rabbit.

Unfortunately, no one acknowledges it.

“Report to the train conductor, Teacher Danheng is not present. I have reason to suspect that Danheng is feeling guilty!” Serres said preemptively.

Walter Yang, who is good at drawing comics and likes mecha, adjusted his glasses and agreed with Serres's speculation.

The secretly printed March 7th averted their gazes, Himeko, who knew the truth but didn't tell anyone, smiled elegantly, and Hoshi tried to reach out and snatch the notebook from Pam's hand.

The main theme is an all-evil trinkets.

This is what unity is.

The train crew is amazing.

Reluctantly, Pam had no choice but to put this unimportant matter aside and prepare to announce the train's next stop.

But at that moment, a light blue projection appeared on the inside of the carriage, against the wall.

An elegant figure, holding an umbrella, slowly walked towards the group of trains that were gathered together.

Although the main body of the projection was blue, you could vaguely see that she had purple hair, wore colored contact lenses, her coat was draped over her shoulders and not properly worn, and she was wearing a leather jacket and leather pants, and high-heeled boots.

Just as March 7th, who was supposed to be the one to draw aggro, was about to speak, Himeko immediately raised her hand without turning her head to stop the little March 7th who was about to draw aggro, and stared intently at Kaffa.

"Mom!" Ah Xing shouted loudly, now that no one was restraining him.

Kafka looked in the direction of the sound, smiled gently, and then looked away.

“Your mother doesn’t want you anymore.” Serres whispered devilishly in Star’s ear.

Why is Mommy ignoring me?

I'm going to make a scene...

I really will make a scene...

I'm already making a scene...

Hmph, ha, ah, ahhhhhh!
"Ah Xing, don't go around calling yourself a mother! I already told you to stop hitting the tiles." March 7th came over.

"That won't do. I need to build a three-dimensional defensive line to protect my xylophone while I'm playing Go."

This is a truly filial daughter.

"If I were the messenger of order, I would prohibit everyone from randomly claiming mothers," March 7th said with exasperation.

“That’s it, Valorant is going to face mass extinction.” Serres said with heartache.

too frightening.

"Long time no see, everyone on the Star Train. I'm Kafka. Ah, nice timing, everyone's here."

March 7th glanced in the direction of the room.

At this moment, Danheng was still dreaming of "crazy handsome men chasing me, and Brother Diandao chasing men to the point of cremation," which was completely forgotten.

Xing elbowed Serris in the kidneys: "Mommy, it seems like this is just a projection. Can you bring my mom over here directly?"

“No.” Serres shook his head. “If it were just Kafka, I wouldn’t have a problem, but my Ether Editor is no match for Silver Wolf.”

“A charming self-introduction is unnecessary. Star Core Hunter.” Himeko first turned her head away from Kafka, her expression slightly strange, before turning back to interrupt after hearing Kafka’s opening remarks.

"Himeko, right?" Kaffa, holding an umbrella, turned her body slightly and raised her hand, making a gesture that resembled lifting a chin, pretending not to recognize Himeko, and pointed at her.

"Let me tell you, that red persimmon in the wedding dress and that purple eggplant in the sunglasses are definitely having an affair." The two big shots confronted each other, while Serres and Xing chirped quietly to each other.

"I just noticed that Himeko-nee and this bad woman's coats look like they're matching outfits," March Seven chimed in quietly.

"It's the mothers fighting for my custody." Xing put her hands in her pockets and gave a proud, crooked smile.

I'm really in demand.

Kafka glanced at Hoshino with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Who put such terrible music on my son Ah Xing?

He was a ruthless and taciturn aloof assassin when he was in our hands...

But... it's not bad either.

Kafka casually folded her umbrella, turned around, and went to the window with her back to the crowd, opening her arms wide: "I'm sorry to have disturbed your gathering. But I believe you will understand my intrusion after hearing my request."

Suddenly turning around, he said, "I need you to change your destination."

The scene was quite impressive at one point, but the atmosphere-ruining group was still playing crickets.

"This umbrella can be folded up!" March 7th looked on curiously.

"That means it's not raining over there," Xing deduced logically.

"Then why did you come in with an umbrella in the first place?" March 7 asked, puzzled.
"Maybe he's here to see his ex and wants to elevate his image," Serres nodded.

“I think they look more like nemesis,” March 7 guessed.

"Huh? I'm from a small planet. Do you aliens call this a nemesis?" Serres feigned surprise.

Xing wholeheartedly agrees: "My mothers have really gone to great lengths for me."

"But it doesn't matter, they are all my wings."

"Is it possible that they've come to get back together?" March 7th asked.

“I don’t mind having two mothers,” Xing nodded seriously.

"The 'Double Mom' couple is a huge shipper, we love shipping them, and we want to ship them even more."

Himeko and Kaffa glared at each other after hearing these words, then glanced helplessly at Hoshi at the same time.

“Look, they have amazing teamwork,” Serres pointed.

Whether they are sworn enemies or lesbians, I have my own judgment.

Ignoring the atmosphere group, the two, knowing that reasoning with the pleasure believers would be pointless, began to discuss the train route change issue.

"Look at those little expressions, those little glances, those flirtatious looks..." Serres continued to offer fire.

"Do you think this counts as... riding a horse?" Serres asked, stroking his chin.

"Wow! You!" March 7 was shocked by these words.

Let me off the bus! This isn't the bus to kindergarten!
"Car, car, so fast!" Xing blinked, confused. "When did I get on the highway? Why is there a tire mark on my face?"
