Train Survival: Can I get a treasure chest by touching my goddess?

Chapter 2 Jiang Youchu: Food Guardian? Send it here!

"Now, distribute the [Train Rules] —"

A massive screen of light unfolded before the four of them, displaying several lines of cold text:

Train Rules

[1. Damaging your train by any means is strictly prohibited! The train is your protective shield, your only mobile fortress and sanctuary in the endless world. Any attempt to damage the train will be considered suicide!]

2. The train will stop at a new station every 24 hours.

The stop will last for 3 hours. As the train conductor, you can choose whether to open and close the doors to lead your passengers off the train for exploration. Note: If you fail to disembark three times consecutively, the doors will be permanently locked, and you will be trapped on this train forever.

3. Collect as many resources as possible. Resources can upgrade your train, which will be of great help!

4. Survive!!!

The train will arrive at its first stop in one hour. Please prepare accordingly.

The mechanical sounds disappeared, and the light screen slowly faded away, leaving only a few lines of "Train Rules" silently suspended in the air, emitting a chilling glow.

The four people looked at each other, and the air seemed to freeze.

"Train... conductor?" Su Mu's voice was uncertain as he looked at Shen Wen.

Shen Wen also looked at his sisters. The amount of information was overwhelming, and his brain was still working at high speed, trying to process it all.

"Holy crap!" Jiang Youchu was the first to break the silence, jumping up abruptly.

He grabbed Shen Wen's arm with astonishing strength, his eyes filled with excitement rather than fear.

"Shen Wen! Shen Wen! Did you see that?! This opening! This premise! Sudden teleportation, a survival game, a train conductor, and the rules!"

"Have we traveled through time?!"

She spoke very quickly, rattling off a bunch of things, then released Shen Wen, leaned close to Su Mu, and pinched her cheek: "Su Mu, does it hurt?"

Pain is not a dream!

No, it hurts even in my dreams... Ahhh, anyway, this is too exciting!

Su Qingxuan took a deep breath, closed her eyes tightly, and when she opened them again, the panic in her eyes had been suppressed and replaced by the composure of an older sister.

She loosened her grip, walked to Shen Wen's side, and placed her hand on his shoulder. Feeling the warmth of his body, her heart calmed down a little.

"Youchu is right." Her voice was clear and carried a convincing force.

"Regardless of how we got here, the fact is that we're stuck on this train and have been told to participate in a so-called 'survival game'."

Panic won't help; we need to figure out the situation first.

She looked at Shen Wen, her eyes full of trust and entrustment. "Shen Wen, the system has identified you as the 'train conductor.' What information do you have?"

Shen Wen took a deep breath, suppressing the feeling of absurdity.

"Train Class 1, speed 20 km/h, has a worktable for repairs. The chassis and wheels can be upgraded, requiring metal and mechanical parts. The floor can restore sanity."

"The train itself can also be upgraded, and after upgrading, you can get train modules. That's all."

He quickly finished explaining the train's attributes.

Suddenly, his expression became somewhat subtle: "I also have a personal talent, Goddess Treasure Chest. After binding, as long as the intimacy period lasts, I can obtain a treasure chest..."

The three women were stunned.

Jiang Youchu burst out laughing, then quickly covered her mouth.

Su Mu pursed her lips, her ears turning red, and stared at the floor without saying a word.

Su Qingxuan remained calm and coughed lightly: "We also have talent."

She raised her hand, and a pale blue light screen appeared and disappeared: "'Predicting Good and Bad Fortune' can determine the danger level of the platform at each station junction, divided into five levels from extremely bad to extremely good."

Shen Wen's eyes lit up. "Sister Qingxuan, this is a great talent! This will help us decide whether or not to get off the bus!"

The other two women nodded in agreement.

After all, who knows if there's any danger on the platform?

"I'm the 'Scout'!" Jiang Youchu raised her hand. "I can see information about people, items, and the environment!"

"It should allow for better collection of supplies."

Su Mu looked up, her face still flushed: "'Weapon Master'. Able to quickly master the use of various weapons, including firearms."

Shen Wen nodded, feeling reassured.

He looked at the three women, his gaze finally settling on Jiang Youchu: "We'll arrive in an hour. My talent is currently the only way to directly increase combat power."

Uh... my two older sisters might not be able to come, how about...?

Jiang Youchu was about to nod and say yes when her heart started beating faster.

To be honest, she had always had a good impression of Shen Wen. He was handsome and had a great physique. If he weren't her best friend's younger brother, she would have made a move on him long ago.

"Shen Wen, are you going to turn out badly?"

Su Mu suddenly spoke, her voice cold, but her cheeks flushed: "You Chu has never been in a relationship before. You're just a young, unmarried woman, and you're already trying to get close to her?"

Shen Wen was speechless.

Jiang Youchu blinked, about to say she didn't mind, when she heard Su Mu speak rapidly—

"I'm your older sister. We've always been inseparable since we were kids, so you're the one who should tag me first!"

The carriage fell silent.

Jiang Youchu stared blankly at Su Mu, her expression gradually becoming subtle.

Su Mu was stunned after she finished speaking. The pink color spread from the tips of her ears to her neck, making her look like a fully cooked shrimp.

She abruptly turned her head away, leaving Shen Wen with only a flushed profile.

Su Qingxuan raised an eyebrow slightly, seemingly lost in thought.

Looking at Su Mu's appearance, a thought popped into Jiang Youchu's mind.

This posture... doesn't it look a bit like... food guarding?

Shen Wen was a little stunned by Su Mu's words, "You bind me first."

He looked at Su Qingxuan, who nodded slightly: "Mumu is right, Youchu is... not suitable after all. You are someone we watched grow up, so it's fine to tie you to our sister."

Jiang Youchu blinked beside her, feeling that there was something hidden in Su Qingxuan's words, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

"Alright." Shen Wen took a deep breath and summoned his talent panel—

【Goddess Treasure Chest (Unique)】

Currently available objects to bind: 0/1

Please select the target to bind to.

He looked at Su Mu, who had her head down and was twisting the hem of her clothes with her fingers.

"Su Mu, shall I begin?"

"Mmm." The voice was barely audible.

Shen Wen locked onto Su Mu with his mind, and new information immediately appeared on the screen—

[Target Bound to: Su Mu]

[Charm Rating: 97 (Silver) (70+ Rotten Wood, 80+ Black Iron, 90+ Bronze)]

[Current Affection Level: 90 (70+ Rotten Wood, 80+ Black Iron, 90+ Bronze)]

[Binding successful!]

[Daily reward: 2 Bronze Chests]

【Intimate Contact Progress: 0/100 (The closer the contact, the faster the progress. Reaching full progress grants an extra treasure chest; accumulating 3 attempts upgrades to the next level treasure chest)】

[Currently available to claim: 0/2]

Shen Wen shared the information with the three of them.

Jiang Youchu leaned closer: "97 points? It seems Su Mu's evaluation is quite high."

"It should be based on a comprehensive evaluation of appearance, temperament, and figure," Su Qingxuan analyzed.

"But it seems the initial limit is Bronze. I didn't expect Su Mu to have such a high level of affection for Shen Wen!" Su Qingxuan said with a smile.

Su Mu stared at the "Favorability Rating: 90" and her heart skipped a beat.

"That's because Shen Wen is the younger brother!" Su Mu

"Um..." Shen Wen scratched his head, "To complete the progress bar, we need intimate contact. Shall we start with the simplest one?"

Su Qingxuan nodded: "Let's take it one step at a time. Let's start by holding hands and see how long it takes."

Shen Wen swallowed hard, reached out, and carefully took Su Mu's hand.

Her hands were soft, her fingertips were slightly cool, but her palms were surprisingly hot.

"Have I started?" he asked again instinctively.

Su Mu tried to remain calm, but the tips of her ears turned red at a visible speed: "Didn't you hold hands with a lot when you were little? Why are you shy now?"

He said that, but his hand showed no intention of pulling it back.

Jiang Youchu saw it all clearly from the side.

Su Mu's ears were so red they looked like they'd been dyed, the color spreading from the tips of her ears to her earlobes, and then all the way down to her neck.

They're just being stubborn.

She thought to herself, "I know Su Mu too well. He's usually quiet and reserved, but when he gets shy, his ears turn bright red."

The brightness is enough to function as a cell tower.

Shen Wen held Su Mu's hand, but his attention was focused on the screen—

[In close contact...]

【进度：1/100……2/100……3/100……】

He silently estimated, "At this rate, it should take about thirty minutes to fill up."

"Thirty minutes?" Jiang Youchu's eyes widened. "Thirty minutes just to hold hands? What if..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but her eyes darted back and forth between Shen Wen and Su Mu, her gaze carrying a meaningful meaning.

Su Mu's face turned even redder.

Su Qingxuan chuckled softly, said nothing, and instead brought up another interface.
