“I think this might also be an opportunity for us to explore a whole new world, and while exploring, we can also replenish the train with much-needed pioneering energy.”

"What?! An anchor point that can travel to other worlds?"

Upon hearing this, Himeko's expression revealed an undisguised surprise.

"Ah Bai, you're not lying to us, are you?" Xing raised her eyebrows, a look of suspicion on her face.

"What's the point of lying to you?" Chen Bai spread his hands. "Anyway, that's the situation. So I'd like to ask for your opinions. I'm wondering if we could scout out Teyvat before heading to the next stop."

"If what you say is true..."

Himeko took a soft breath, her fingertips unconsciously tracing the warm curves of the coffee cup, and pondered as she looked down:

"Then, a completely new and unknown world is indeed a perfect fit for our mission of pioneering."

"However, we must prioritize ensuring the schedule of the Harmony Ceremony. My suggestion is that we can go and explore, but we must set clear timeframes; if time becomes tight, we can pause our activities in that world at any time and turn back immediately."

Then she looked up at Pam:

"Pam, what's your opinion?"

Upon hearing this, Pam straightened her furry body and said:

"Since it's a completely new world, as the train conductor, Pam is not opposed to opening the Topah!"

"However! The train's current energy reserves, apart from Pinoconni, are probably insufficient to support a long-distance leap to an unknown coordinate..."

Chen Bai immediately realized that Pam had misunderstood, and quickly explained:

"Pam, my world anchor can be set directly on the train. Without my authorization, it is just a decoration, and we can return at any time through this anchor, but I don't know where the anchor we set will lead to."

"Oh—! So that's how it is! A stable round-trip route can be established without using the train's precious reserve energy!"

Pam suddenly realized, and the worry on her face vanished instantly.

It nodded vigorously. "If that's the case, then the train conductor has no objections! As long as you strictly adhere to the schedule and return safely before the Harmony Festival, that's fine! The itinerary must be followed!"

Having obtained Pam's consent, Chen Bai turned his gaze to the cold-faced little green dragon who was quietly listening in: "Dan Heng, what are your thoughts?"

Upon hearing this, Dan Heng merely raised his eyes slightly and succinctly expressed his attitude: "I don't care about the schedule. But if it's a completely new world that could be included in the think tank, I should accompany and record it."

"Great, another vote in favor!"

Chen Bai nodded slightly, and finally turned his smiling gaze to the three little ones who were already eager to try, and said: "As for the three of you... I think the answer is obvious, isn't it?"

"Of course!"

March 7th almost jumped up, her face beaming with pure excitement and curiosity. "A new world, new adventures! My camera is itching to take pictures!"

Xing stood with one hand on her hip and the other gripping her baseball bat, a cool smile playing on her lips as she uttered her classic catchphrase: "Since this is a new world, how can it be without me, the Galactic Baseball Man?"

"Of course I want to go, but I have to make it clear beforehand that I might be forcibly sent back to my original world shortly after I return from my exploration. The timing might be uncertain."

Qiong thought for a moment and replied.

“That’s not a problem,” Chen Bai said understandingly. “I will pay special attention to allow you enough time to safely return to your original world.”

Because everyone will be holding a farewell party for Qiong.

Seeing the gleam in the eyes of these young pioneers, Himeko smiled gently and contentedly.

She leaned back gently in her chair, her posture elegant and composed, which also made her stance clear:

"Since you are all determined to go and see the world called Teyvat, then as your parent, I will naturally give my full support. This expedition will be led by you young people, while Walt and I will stay on the train to ensure the stability of the base camp and make final preparations for the [Harmony Ceremony] trip."

"Great!" March 7 exclaimed happily.

"Okay, but before that, Xing, could you please call Uncle Yang? I have something else I need to discuss with him when he arrives."

Chen Bai glanced at Xing.

The latter immediately understood and then left the observation car to call Walter Yang.

Shortly afterward, Walter Yang followed Xing to the observation car.

Chapter 133 Robbery! Hand over the light cone!

"Ah Bai, I'm here. Is there anything we need to discuss?"

Walter walked over steadily, habitually pushing up his glasses. He had been intently fiddling with a mecha model in the room when he heard Xing calling from outside the door, so he followed her.

"Which position is 'star'?"

Chen Bai did not respond directly to Walter, but turned to Xing and asked in a low voice.

"It's right there."

The star quickly and definitively pointed to a corner of the carriage.

"it is good."

Then, in the fishy and green water, the boat was covered with earthworms and other insects. The fish were ...

The next second, a woman wearing a white hood appeared, unsurprisingly kneeling on one knee and catching Chen Bai's watermelon knife.

"The one who remembers?"

Upon seeing this, Himeko immediately stood up from the sofa.

"Wow! How did someone suddenly appear, Pam?" Pam was so startled that he immediately hid behind Himeko.

“Remember, state your purpose, or don’t blame us for being impolite.”

Walter took out his cane and said with a wary look on his face.

"Fellow passengers of the Starry Sky Train, I mean no harm... I am a messenger from the [Radiant Memories]."

The messenger hurriedly explained, but she was unable to move at that moment.

Because Chen Bai's strange watermelon knife was pressing down on her, even her meme body couldn't escape.

"【Radiant Memories】? I don't recall our Starry Sky Train inviting you aboard, did it?"

Himeko quickly questioned him as well.

"That's right, that's right! Getting on the train without being invited by other passengers is really very unruly!"

Pam also questioned, saying that it hated it when people sneaked onto the train without the navigator's or its own permission as the train conductor.

And no wonder it always felt there were other people on the train; now the mystery is solved.

It turned out that a retaliatory was lurking in the car.

The messenger smiled bitterly to herself.

Little did she know that there was such a rare and wonderful guest on the Starry Sky Train. She was just slacking off when she was suddenly pulled into the situation.

Originally, she had only made a deal with Xing, wanting to board the train and record those precious memories along with the Starry Sky Train.

Unexpectedly, he was caught red-handed.

"Uncle Yang, I know this guy..."

Upon seeing this, Xing recounted her experience of meeting the remembrancer.

"so it is."

After listening to Hoshi's words, Himeko nodded knowingly.

She then turned her gaze to the messenger girl who had been forced to reveal herself by Chen Bai's knife, and knelt on one knee, and said:

“Miss Memory, hiding on the Starry Sky Train without permission is hardly polite, nor is it behavior to be encouraged. If you cannot provide a sufficiently reasonable and convincing explanation, then, for the sake of the privacy and safety of all passengers on the train, I'm afraid I will have to ask you to leave.”

After all, no family can tolerate an unseen resident for long.

Upon closer reflection, this person in hiding may have silently witnessed many private conversations on the train.

This feeling is akin to discovering a voyeur lurking in your home, someone you can't detect, and no one would be in a good mood.

"Um... please calm down, everyone." Pointed at by Chen Bai's blade and being shoved by the throbbing men, the man hurriedly spoke up, his voice coming through the hood, slightly urgent but trying to remain calm, "I promise, I really don't mean any harm, can... please let me go first? I can explain."

Chen Bai did not act immediately, but instead turned his questioning gaze to Ji Zi.

As the de facto manager and patriarch of the train, Himeko's attitude is crucial.

Ji Zi and Chen Bai exchanged a glance, pondered for a moment, and finally nodded slightly.

With permission granted, Chen Bai flicked his wrist, and the gleaming watermelon knife vanished as abruptly as it had appeared, as if it had never existed.

"Phew~" The messenger breathed a sigh of relief, then slowly opened her mouth to greet the fishy-smelling fish:

"Fellow passengers of the Starry Sky Train, please allow me to formally introduce myself. I am a messenger from [Radiant Memories]. You may call me Lina. First, I offer my sincerest apologies for boarding the train without permission and concealing my whereabouts!"

She bowed slightly again, her attitude showing humility. "This is by no means an offense to the Starry Sky Train or anyone here; it is truly out of necessity, and I have my reasons for doing so."

"So, what is your reason?" Chen Bai asked.

"Actually, the reason I did this was simply because I heard that the Star Train had restarted and I wanted to copy my memories along with it. I am not one of those memory thieves; I would not steal other people's memories at will. However, because of the reputation of my colleagues, I had no choice but to hide on the train."

Lina began to explain.

"Then what makes your actions any different from your colleagues? If you want to travel on the train, then apply openly and honestly, instead of hiding on the train."

Chen Bai said dismissively.

"I... then what do you want in order to forgive me?" Lina asked anxiously.

It would be troublesome if she were kicked off the train. She joined the Starry Sky Train not only to collect memories, but also to protect a certain nameless passenger.

I just didn't expect it to be discovered so quickly.

"Well... I've heard that your Yiting has something called a 'light cone.' It seems that with this thing, one can draw power from it and use it in battle. Is that true?"

Chen Bai suddenly stepped forward, squinting as he asked.

"it is true."

"Very well, then hand over your light cone! Hand over as many as you have, and consider it compensation for your unauthorized intrusion into the owner's home without prior notice. As for whether or not to let you continue to stay on the train... that's up to Himeko-neechan."

As Chen Bai spoke, he began to reach out and take it.

Lina had no choice. Although the light cone was precious, the investment in collecting memories with the Star Train and the value of her own mission far outweighed the cost.

Anyone who remembers will know how to choose.

She could only hand the box containing the cone of light to Chen Bai.

"That's more like it." Chen Bai took the box, opened it, and saw that it was full of shimmering cones of light, with various contents.

They lay quietly on the cushions, radiating powerful energy waves.

Chen Bai was also taken aback, not expecting this guy to have such a large collection.

Great! We'll split the loot with March 7th and Xing later.

"This is a scene recorded from the Yalilo VI [Storage] where Kripper glances at Miss Star..."

"This is a scene from when you confronted the Doomsday Beast at the Black Tower Space Station, before I even got on the train."

"And this one is..."

"Hmm? This [light cone] looks interesting, can I take a look, meow?"

Before Lina could finish speaking, a gentle meow came from behind her.

She paused, her gaze involuntarily drawn to a certain apothecary cat sitting atop a Fengrao Xuanlu.

Chapter 134 The Memoir: Why did He travel with the train in this manner?

Lina's gaze was involuntarily drawn to the strange combination beside Chen Bai.

The elegant, still-standing deer, and the cat-shaped cake sitting on the deer's head, leisurely swaying its tail.

As a messenger of the [Radiant Memories], she is exceptionally sensitive to fluctuations in memory and information, and at this moment, she clearly senses a certain...heart-stirring resonance from this deer and cat.

Especially the elegant white cat cake, its life force was not something that ordinary creatures could emit, but rather a vast and pure force beyond reason, as if the power of abundance directly from the origin of the universe was gently rippling.

She still remembered Linglu; it was an elite monster that the train crew had encountered in the Immortal Ship Luofu, and its image had long been stored in her memory files.

But where did this cat cake come from?
