"I choose—"

Xing's voice wasn't loud, but it was very clear.

She raised her hand and grasped Lu Li's hand. "I'll come with you!"

The moment Xing grasped his hand, the weight that had been hanging over Lu Li's heart finally lifted.

It became.

The protagonist is ours... no, I mean, please get on board.

That's good now.

Next time trouble comes, the main character will be there to protect you.

He, the logistics specialist, could finally relax and focus on making coffee and wiping tables in the back.

Plans are in place!

"Welcome to the team, Hoshi." Himeko stepped forward, a genuine smile on her face.

"From now on, we're family."

"Tch, boring," Black Tower snorted from the side.

But there was little disappointment in his eyes; instead, there was more of amusement at the prospect of a good show.

"Alright, since this kid made his own choice, I won't force him to stay."

"then."

Xing instinctively caught the thing that Black Tower threw at her and found it was a uniquely designed mobile phone.

"My private number is in there." Black Tower crossed his arms. "Although the star core inside you has stabilized for now, it's like a time bomb."

"Like I said before, if you want to come back to do research in the future, send me a message in advance. Don't do anything surprise."

"Of course, if you dare to harass me, I'll block you."

I looked at my phone, then at the Black Tower.

Xing whispered, "Thank you."

"Alright, alright, that's cheesy." Black Tower waved his hand impatiently. "Let's get going."

Looking at the two people in front of him, Lu Li raised an eyebrow.

"Black Tower, I didn't expect you to be such a..."

But before he could finish speaking, he suddenly remembered something and his expression changed.

"Holy crap, the company!"

Now is not the time for jokes or sentimental farewells.

Lu Li suddenly turned around and grabbed Ji Zi's arm, almost jumping up in his anxiety.

"Quick, quick, Himeko-nee, drive! Let's go now!"

"If we don't leave now, those guys from the Interstellar Peace Corporation will really trap us on the space station!"

"I'll be the one who gets captured and dissected for research!"

Himeko was amused by his appearance, but still nodded: "Okay, let's set off now."

Himeko then looked at the Black Tower and said, "Then we'll take our leave."

"Black Tower, thank you for your help this time."

"What are you thanking me for? You guys helped me deal with the Doomsday Beast, I should be thanking you." Black Tower waved his hand.

"Hurry up and leave, don't delay me from repairing the space station."

"Alright, alright, enough with the goodbyes, Himeko-nee, hurry up!"

"And Xing, bring out your 100-meter sprint speed!"

Lu Li, pulling Xing and a helpless-looking Ji Zi along, almost ran towards the platform.

"Are the people in the company really that scary?" Xing asked, somewhat puzzled as he was being dragged along.

"It's more than just terrifying!" Lu Li said, looking back as he ran, his expression extremely serious.

"They are a pack of wolves in sheep's clothing, capable of anything for profit."

"They are more interested in people like us... well, those with some special abilities, than anyone else."

"Once you get entangled with them, you can forget about having a peaceful day."

Lu Li knew all too well the company's character.

In order to "protect" him, these people will definitely study him thoroughly from the inside out if they catch him.

Let's see what's really going on with this rumored "number one person below the Star God".

At that point, forget about living a salted fish life; just being able to keep your personal privacy will be a blessing.

The three of them ran all the way and soon returned to the platform.

The train was parked there quietly, and March 7th and Danheng were waiting by the door.

"You're back!" March 7th waved excitedly as soon as he saw the three of them.

When she saw Xing coming back with her, she was so happy that she jumped up and down.

"Star! You've decided to come with us? That's great!"

March 7th rushed up and hugged Xing tightly, patting her on the back several times with joy.

Dan Heng also came over and nodded to Xing.

That was a way of saying hello.

"Get in the car quickly, there's no time to explain!" Lu Li pushed the group towards the car. "The company people will be here soon!"

"A company?" March 7th paused, taken aback. "What are they doing here?"

"Come and arrest me for research!" Lu Li shouted without turning his head.

March 7th: "?"

The group boarded the train.

Inside the observation car, Walter was sitting on the sofa reading a book.

They saw everyone come in.

Walter put down his book and adjusted his glasses: "Is everything taken care of?"

"Yes." Himeko nodded. "Hoshi has decided to come with us."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Li rushed to the driver's side door and shouted at Pam inside.

"Pam, drive! Full speed ahead! Our goal is the stars!"

Pam was startled and jumped up from the driver's seat: "Pam knows, Pam!"

"Passengers, please be seated, the train is about to depart!"

"Boom—"

It was accompanied by a slight vibration.

The Star Train slowly started moving and departed from the platform.

……

Space station, in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the observation area.

Looking down at the platform, I saw several figures quickly boarding the Star Train.

Black Tower held the half-finished cup of coffee, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"The members were already strange, and now they've added a monster that came out of the sky and a humanoid star core container..."

"This train is getting more and more interesting..."

……

Inside the observation carriage.

Lu Li leaned against the window, watching the space station rushing past outside, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They finally managed to escape.

Just as the train completely detached from the space station, preparing to perform a jump.

Lu Li noticed it with his sharp eyes.

A magnificent spaceship bearing the logo of the Interstellar Peace Corporation leaped out from the distant stars and docked at the port of the Black Tower Space Station.

Lu Li: "..."

Lu Li wiped away non-existent cold sweat.

That was close.

It was just a tiny bit off.

If they had been a few minutes later, they would have been caught red-handed.

We really did have to thank Black Tower for the reminder.

Next time I have the chance to meet Black Tower, I'll bring her an interesting trinket.

Hmm, and also to get her attention away from me.
