Starry Sky Railway: Opening Performance - Taixu Sword God

"...Sigh, I knew it."

"What do you want to know? My father, or my mother?"

"Uh..." Sand Gold was somewhat speechless:

"neither."

"I just wanted to ask you, have you ever heard of [death] in your dreams?"

"Oh?" Barr's eyes lit up:

"What you're saying is exactly like what my father said..."

"He told me that danger is everywhere, and one should not be careless even in dreams."

"He is an intelligent machine, and his way of entering dreams is different from that of organic life."

"If real danger arises, you can't protect me in my dreams."

"Protection... Ha, I'm far inferior to him in this kind of thing, haha, how ironic, how ironic..."

Sha Jin comforted:

"Friend, be optimistic."

"Gold will always shine."

After saying goodbye to Bal, Sajin walked alone in the commercial street.

"The demon of Suleda, the danger in dreams, the ghost of nightmares..."

"Sure enough, in the beautiful dream promised by the family, [death] must be a topic that people talk about with great interest."

"Although there are many rumors, there are some clues that are useful to me..."

Sand Gold rummaged through his bag again, and sighed:

"Before I knew it, the bag was almost empty..."

"Let's see if the last lucky winner can give me another surprise."

With his last fortune, the gold dust arrived at a relatively secluded garden.

A young Pipisi man stood here.

Before Sand Gold could speak, the other party said:

"Remember what I said? You Tzegnanese are only fit to stay under manhole covers..."

She turned around and let out a mocking laugh:

"Look at you, sneaking around like that!"

"Smell here, sniff there—"

There are two chickens fighting above our heads!

"—Is the smell of blood from [death] really that alluring, little peacock?"

Looking at the twin-tailed girl who had reverted to her original form, Sand Gold said helplessly:

"……It is you."

"After the robin died, the [stand-in] that appeared on TV was always you, Masked Fool."

Fireworks smiled slightly:

"I heard your family has cast a curse on you?"

"Hey, I gave you such a direct hint... [Go find a mute person to be friends with], listen to that, it's such a simple sentence..."

She hugged herself and said regretfully:

"The results of it?"

"Not only did you mess things up, you also ruined yourself."

"You asked me to befriend a mute person, but you didn't ask me to be the first to become mute. You really let down their good intentions."

"...What do you mean?" Sand Gold frowned.

Fireworks naturally looked towards the gold dust:

"You know better than I do who stood by and watched the little bird that couldn't sing die right in front of us?"

"Of course it's you, little peacock!"

Sand Gold said in a deep voice:

"I'm asking you... what does it mean to become [mute]?"

Fireworks started mocking again:

"Hehe, you know the answer already."

"Because you'll soon end up like her, unable to speak forever."

"However, in my opinion, this is not necessarily a bad thing, because..."

Sand Jin smiled lightly and said:

"Because I'm about to uncover the truth, aren't I?"

"Heh, fool, why do you think I would carry around this tattered bag and hand out cheap jewelry all over the street?"

"This is all for your benefit."

Amidst the silence of the fireworks, Sand Gold continued his eloquent speech:

"The more disheveled I am, the more likely I am to lure you out..."

"I've been waiting for you for so long. Considering how hard I've worked, aren't you going to reward me with an answer?"

"Tsk." Hanabi quietly looked at the man in front of her and said disdainfully:

Why should I help you?

Sand gold answer:

"Didn't you want Pinocchio to cause chaos?"

"I can do it, I only need to verify one thing."

"Back then, you asked me to find the [mute]..."

"Does it really refer to [the robin]?"

"Ha... What if I say no?" Hanabi slyly observed Sand Gold's expression.

Sand Jin smiled and said:

"Thank you."

"This word sounds so familiar to me for the first time."

Fireworks deserve praise:

"Sure, I underestimated you."

"But what's the use of that?"

Seeing that Sand Gold remained silent, Fireworks continued:

“Let me tell you—there were originally two people who fit the definition of ‘mute’.”

"But the robin is dead, and the other..."

“She’s still in Pinocchio, but if you insist on taking this red and white chicken and the hidden lance, you’ll probably never find her again.”

Sand Gold shifted his gaze slightly upwards, glancing at the two birds still locked in a fierce struggle, and smiled:

“Well, Fool, now I am absolutely certain that I have been on the right track from the very beginning and have never strayed from it.”

"I only lack two things: first, the meaning behind the truth; second, the method to reveal it."

Hearing this, Hanabi couldn't help but laugh out loud:

"Pfft, hahaha... Great! It's time for my favorite part: stubbornness."

"You don't know anything, do you?!"

"No, no, no." Sand Gold shook its head.

"I have proven its existence through various signs, and that is enough."

"As for the answers to these two questions, seventeen... no, sixteen systems are enough for me to handle everything."

"Oh? Sixteen systems? Is that really enough?" Hanabi smiled slightly.

"Then let me add fuel to the fire for you."

"Here, here you go~"

Fireworks pulled a handful of rice from his pocket and handed it to Sand Gold as if it were charity.

"You have to feed a bird. Guess which one you should feed to get the truth faster?"

"Sorry, I don't want to feed any of them."

Seeing that Sand Gold didn't take the handful of rice, Fireworks smiled and took out another small red button:

"Here, here you go."

"This is my treasured [Mutual Destruction] button; I have an identical one myself."

"If any one of us presses it, the other side and the entire Pinocchio will immediately explode into the sky."

"If you really want your company to move into Pinocchio, and you can't stand the thought of it... then blowing up the poker table is one way to go."

"If all else fails, we can just start over!"

"This is what the company excels at, right?"
