Honkai Impact: Star Railway: I'm really not a Star God!

Wow! What a bright lobby! And tonight there will be soft mattresses and bouncy pillows!

"Should we have a pillow fight tonight? Seriously? I bet the pillows in this hotel are super plush!"

It's hard to imagine Danheng having a pillow fight with two girls.

"Stop! I know what you're going to say, March. You talked too much back then. March, you shouldn't have revealed our purpose to people you didn't trust... I know, it's all because you two were beating around the bush and didn't speak properly."

"But look, isn't the result great now? We got VIP treatment, a super luxurious hotel, and the full support of local forces! It seems this expansion mission went very smoothly!"

Seeing that Danheng, who was like an old father, was about to speak, Sanyueqi immediately spoke up to try and gain an advantage for himself.

Otherwise, what if Danheng scolds me later?

Although they all seem to be right...

But! Danheng doesn't understand matters concerning beautiful girls!

"No...that's not what I meant."

Dan Heng rubbed his head, feeling a headache coming on. After so many collaborations, he had long since figured out March 7's quirky and clever personality.

"Okay, okay, then you go ahead."

"Back in Cripperburg—did you notice that 'Great Guardian'?"

From the moment he entered the audience hall, Danheng felt a sense of unease.

"Of course! After adventuring with you guys for so long, my observation skills have been honed to an extraordinary level—hey, they're incredibly sharp now!"

On March 7th, hands on hips, head held high like a proud little bird.

Xing, standing three meters away, asked in shock.

"What did you notice!?"

Sure enough! Her feeling was right! Even March 7th sensed something was wrong!

"No, she's a pretty normal lady. She was a bit difficult to talk to at first, but she became quite gentle after she explained things to me."

After hearing this, Xing sighed inwardly.

But the next second, March 7th continued.

"It's just... I feel there's a kind of penetrating power in her eyes—it's like, even though she's talking to us, her eyes seem to be fixed on something in the distance..."

If Ling Kong were here, he would definitely make a comment to scare March 7th.

What if...she was looking at the person next to you? A...fourth person.

Dan Heng frowned, carefully recalling the feeling.

"Yeah, I had a similar feeling, like there were more than just us in that room."

"Huh, now that you mention it, it sounds a bit scary..."

Startled by Dan Heng's calm tone, March 7 crossed her arms over her chest. How... how did this suddenly turn into a horror movie?!

"There's only one truth: the invisible man!"

After thinking for a moment, Xing said with certainty.

She also had a feeling about it.

There was something watching me the whole time.

There was a slight reaction in the stellar core inside the body.

"That definitely won't escape Dan Heng's eyes!"

March 7th immediately shook his head.

No, we can rule out the invisible man option.

"Maybe I'm being too sensitive... She promised to help us, I hope she won't go back on her word..."

"Get some rest early so you can be well-rested for tomorrow's negotiations."

Suppressing his doubts, Danheng chose to conserve his energy first.

Their current situation is far too passive.

Fortunately, while the three of them were in the open, there was one person who was always in the shadows.

This time... it might have to be done by flying.

......

At night, after changing into a nobleman's outfit, Ling Kong looked at himself in the mirror to see how he looked in it.

“Sir, this outfit suits you perfectly.”

"Really?"

Bosang smiled slightly; he had also changed into a formal suit.

"Yes, sir."

"How are your preparations going? Something might happen tonight, we need to handle it carefully."

"Everything is ready, sir. Sambo is ready to perform tonight."

"That's good."

After packing his things, Ling Kong smiled slightly and walked out of the room.

Tonight, I'm going to a party at Wallace's house.

To further expand one's influence in the world.

The first step is to support Wallace in taking over.

Although Wallace wasn't the main figure at the party, it didn't diminish his status as one of the heirs of the Lemster family, which entitled him to bring a few of his friends.

Coincidentally, the house Sambo tricked into buying was also located in the Seventh Street area.

As they walked along the street, the Silvermane Iron Guard patrol members who passed by nodded to the two of them and offered a friendly reminder.

"Gentlemen, Belleburg is not very safe lately. Try not to go to secluded alleys at night. I heard that people have started to go missing. Be careful and report any problems immediately."

"Okay, thank you. We're going to the Lemstein family's banquet."

"Have a good time, sir and madam."

"Thank you."

Ling Kong returned a polite smile.

When the two arrived at the Lemstein family mansion, the parking lot in front of the mansion was already full of cars.

"Sambo, are you ready for the banquet?"

"Joy, ready."

Chapter 39 Should You Be the Head of the Family?

"No invitation? You think you can sneak in?! Where did this brat come from? Throw her out!"

Just as he was about to go in, Ling Kong saw a girl being thrown out.

It almost crashed into the air.

The girl had light blue hair and purple eyes.

Ling Kong paused for a moment, then extended a hand towards the girl.

The girl who was thrown out lingered on Ling Kong for a brief moment, but gritted her teeth, got up, and ran away into the distance.

"Sir, should I go after her?"

Sambo, whose cosplay skills were top-notch, noticed that Lingkong was interested in the girl, so he took the initiative to ask her.

"No need, we will meet again if we are destined to."

Sambo nodded, making a mental note of the sentence.

Although he had heard this phrase before and could also say it.

but--!

The words are all the same; it depends on who says them.

He understood the meaning behind the Lord of Joy's words.

What does it mean to be destined to meet again?

That is joy... not the cunning of the wise, but true joy, which is going with the flow.

It's like when you deliberately do something, you can't laugh, but something that happens suddenly can make you burst out laughing.

He Sambo has understood the meaning of the Lord of Pleasure!

"Do you have an invitation? If not, we regret that we cannot serve you here."

The man who threw the girl out was a muscular, scarred man. Even though it was winter all year round in Belleburg, he was shirtless, and a faint warmth emanated from his skin.

Just after throwing the petty thief out of the yard, he saw Ling Kong preparing to pull the girl up.

He doesn't remember...

Among the people the head of the family invited tonight, there are so many philanthropists.

Moreover, this man was a complete stranger.

The guards at the door also looked at the two of them warily.

Just as Ralf was about to continue asking questions, he paused for a moment when he saw Sambo and said with a surprised expression.

"Miss Bo!? What are you doing here?"

Sambo, having received a signal from Lingkong, acted like a cunning old fox.

"Hehehe~ Captain Lei, are you on duty again tonight?"

"Oh dear! That's perfectly normal. The head of the family is hosting a banquet to celebrate the recent harvest."

"A harvest? Oh~ Doesn't that mean... Captain Lei also had a considerable harvest?"
