[Fu Xuan: This doesn't resemble the father of Pinocchio at all; he's clearly more like Jing Yuan.]

[Jingyuan: Hey, hey.]

The train crew looked at each other, completely bewildered.

It's like when a computer malfunctions and has no sound. You follow a tutorial to open the back cover, use a screwdriver to work on all the parts, and then reassemble it, only to find...

This time, even the screen won't turn on!

Xing felt a chill in her heart.

Could it be that she ruined Dream Bubble?

"Huh? What's going on?" March 7th scratched his head. "There's really nothing in this dream bubble?! How could this be?"

Gallagher shrugged. "Hmph, or rather, I knew it."

"He always had an inexplicable confidence in the nameless passengers. In his plans, [pioneers] always had a place, and I don't know where this confidence came from... He never managed to make contact with the train while he was alive."

"I've never understood what this old man was thinking, but this empty dream bubble really does have his style. It's filled with nonsensical fantasies—and an incomprehensible romanticism."

As he spoke, he sighed with mixed feelings, "Old rascal... I never expected him to leave any tricks up his sleeve."

[Fireworks: Seriously? Even Gallagher doesn't understand? Has this old man really converted to superstition? Or is he not dead at all, and is he going to suddenly jump up in a minute, laughing and saying, "You fell for it, didn't you?", while flicking Little Gray's head?]

[Sai Fei'er: Are you sure this isn't a conversion to some kind of fun god?]

[Pam: If only that could be... Pam! Waaaaaah...]

Everyone was disheartened, but Himeko firmly denied it, saying, "No, Mr. Galakh. I think Mikhail will definitely leave us the most precious things."

Seeing her unconditional trust in the nameless guest, Gallagher couldn't help but feel a pang of emotion: "You're not going to spout some grand theories either, are you?"

Himeko smiled faintly: "Just as Mikhail believed in the nameless travelers of the future, we will unconditionally believe in the nameless travelers of the past. They were willing to dedicate their lives to the land they loved; how could they leave with regrets for the future?"

She asserted, "This dream bubble must contain something, we just haven't figured it out yet. Mr. Gallagher, you're the same way when it comes to believing in the 'watchmaker,' aren't you?"

[Star: Believe it, belief needs no reason!]

March 7th: Believe in the power of belief!

"I'm a believer in 'mystical' destiny, and my philosophy of life is to not believe in anything." With that, Gallagher let out a long breath and changed the subject.

"So I also understand what belief means for pioneering. I also want to know what he left behind. Heh, it's up to you."

Himeko pondered for a moment: "Could I borrow your pet (Sleep) for a moment? I need to return to [Golden Hour] to check some things at the Dream Shop..."

"For Mikhail, and for the future of Pinocchio."

The light screen went out and then lit up again.

At this moment, the group was already in a room resembling a daydream hotel.

Besides the train crew, there was another person present.

The little boy with light blue hair asked timidly, "Excuse me, where is this...?"

He was just an ordinary waiter who went between Liumeng Reef and Daydream Hotel every day. Why did these distinguished guests bring him here?

[Hanabi: Wow~~ What a handsome…little boy? Luckily I saw his Adam's apple, otherwise I would have thought he was a short-haired little girl. Tsk tsk, Pinocchio doesn't have those weird priests, right? We absolutely can't let that kind of person find out.]

[Star: Hey, isn't that the hotel staff member who helped us with our luggage? Could he possibly be connected to the watchmaker's estate?]

[Watch Boy: Misha!]

[Pam: M...Mikhail?!]

[Su Chang: That name sounds familiar. It's the same as the watchmaker's name.]

[Gui Naifen: Changchang, why don't you go and take a look at that doctor Xuzhao mentioned?]

[March 7th: Pam, who are you talking about?!]

Inside the Star Train, everyone was startled and turned to look at Pam, who had cried out in shock.

At this moment, the train conductor was trembling, clutching a broom in his hand, his eyes fixed on the light screen, unable to look away.

The group exchanged bewildered glances, all seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.

There's no need to bother Pam anymore; his appearance makes the truth crystal clear—Misha is the watchmaker!

Not only them, but Yinhe was also amazed.

[Hanabi: No way? He's really not dead? Hmm... So I have the ability to foresee the future too?]

[Gallach: That's strange. This old man is so tight-lipped. He even kept it from me. What a mischievous old man!]

[Star: That's great! Wait, he wouldn't really convert to the God of Music, would he?]

[March 7th: I knew the first person I met after getting off the bus would have a big secret!]

[Black Tower: Could it be some kind of anti-aging technology? Is the person in the wheelchair his shed old body? But why does he have amnesia? Is it due to a disability?]

[Gold Sand: Regardless of the circumstances, this makes the Star Train's counterattack even more justified and confident.]

[Phantom photo: Tsk tsk, the father of Pinocchio, after shrinking in size, is now working as a waiter in a hotel lobby. How approachable! He's getting state guest treatment; those receiving such service should be secretly delighted.]

Himeko smiled gently: "Do you remember this place, Misha?"

Misha looked around, and even he couldn't understand why he felt a sense of familiarity: "I... I can't quite put my finger on it. But it feels like I've seen this place before. Where am I?"

"This is a dream bubble, and our consciousness entered it. It's a gift left to the Starry Sky Train by an unknown traveler, but strangely, when we opened it, we found nothing inside," Himeko said to Misha, then turned to the others and explained:

"Dr. Edward from the Dream Shop told me that dreams are formed from the condensation of memories, and if the core is empty, a dream bubble cannot take shape."

[Star: I see, so there can't be such a thing as an empty dream bubble... I see. Instead of searching aimlessly like headless flies, let the main character guide us. Even if he has amnesia, he's definitely stronger than us.]

[March 7th: By the way, Himeko-nee, how did you figure out that Misha is Mikhail?]

[Himeko: It's probably because of the part that wasn't shown on the screen; we probably obtained other information while we were exploring around Liumeng Reef. To be honest, I can't make that deduction based solely on what I've seen.]
