Starry Sky Railway: The Warden's Interrogation of Kafka

Chapter 8 Hehe, I just love seeing Bronya cry like that.

Upper level, administrative district.

Bronya looked curiously at the tablet in Lola's hand.

"what is this?"

Lola glanced at the message Gu Yan had sent on her tablet: "I've finished what I was doing. Where are you guys?"

Then, looking at Bronya with surprise, he said, "Huh? A tablet? You didn't know that?"

"flat?"

Bronya asked, puzzled, "I don't know, we don't have anything like this here. What's this for?"

Upon hearing this...

Laura patiently explained, "You can think of it as a communication tool."

"Its function allows two people to chat even if they are thousands of miles apart."

"Separated by thousands of miles?!"

Bronya's mouth gaped slightly, her eyes wide with surprise: "This kind of technology already exists?"

"Oh...you come from another planet."

As she spoke, Bronya's eyes showed a hint of melancholy: "As you can see, our world's technological level is extremely backward."

Laura didn't know how to comfort her; she wasn't a scientist and couldn't change the world's problems.

However, the warden arrived.

Could it be that this is all for the purpose of improving this planet?

Speaking of which...

It seems that every year, money is mysteriously deposited into the warden's private account.

No way...

Lola's eyes widened slightly.

Damn it!! Surely Gu Yan doesn't have a black market business on this planet?!

hateful!

There's definitely something shady going on between Gu Yan and that woman named Cocolia!

Chilling!

When will a warden like this ever promote me?

while walking.

Bronya, with her hands behind her back, glanced at Lola and asked casually, "Lola, how did you and Gu Yan meet?"

"us?"

After sending Gu Yan her location, Lola thought for a moment and replied, "I told you before, didn't I?"

"Gu Yan and I are both under the name of Interstellar Peace Company."

"This is a company dedicated to universal peace, and its business is very diverse."

"One of them is the 'Interstellar Peace Prison' which is specifically designed to arrest cosmic criminals."

"Gu Yan was appointed as the warden because of his outstanding professional skills."

"I joined the prison warden's office as his secretary when he was the warden."

"You could say... sigh, it's a tragic fate."

As Lola spoke, she recalled how she had been busy trying to cover up the mess Gu Yan had made.

She couldn't help but sigh.

He was scolded by people at headquarters and beaten and verbally abused by Gu Yan.

She also had to live in fear that the headquarters would find out about her false expense reports for Gu Yan.

How pitiful....

The more Lola thought about it, the more pathetic she felt.

Bronya's eyes lit up with interest upon hearing this.

She asked with some curiosity, "Warden, so Gu Yan is the warden?"

"Is his job to arrest criminals?"

This seems similar to their job as guards.

"Yes, that's right."

"Moreover, Gu Yan is someone who has been rated as a [Legendary Warden]."

"This is a title that can only be earned by arresting no fewer than 2 heinous space criminals within a year."

"That's why I chose to become the warden's secretary back then!"

As Lola said this, a hint of excitement appeared in her eyes.

"Gu Yan was a legendary figure in the universe back then."

"Many criminals would turn limp at the mere mention of his name."

Unfortunately... now...

Hey.

In the end, it was all for naught.

Lola sighed again.

"legend....."

A glimmer of light appeared in Bronya's eyes.

Gu Yan is such a formidable figure in the outside world.

Oh my god...

Wow, that's amazing...

Arresting criminals...a legendary warden...

I really want to know what he's been through all these years.

of course.

If Lola knew what Bronya was thinking.

They would definitely say it's better not to know about his history of breaking the law.

having said so much.

Lola was also curious about the relationship between Gu Yan and Bronya and the others.

She looked at Bronya, who was listening intently, and asked, "Enough about me, Bronya. How did you two meet Gu Yan?"

The words fell.

"Us..."

Bronya snapped out of her daze.

She recalled the scene from back then, and a joyful smile involuntarily appeared on her lips.

"Gu Yan may not have become the prison warden at that time."

"But she's already my mother's friend, um... she's the Great Guardian who was talking to Gu Yan."

"And then, because I am the daughter of the Great Guardian, I received a strict education from a young age."

"Whenever I'm about to break down, Gu Yan will appear and quietly take me away."

"He took me to the lower levels, to the snow, and to show me the scenery outside of Beloborg."

"We rolled around in the snow and built snowmen."

"Fishing on glaciers, mining, rock climbing, and parachuting from great heights,"

"We also made many friends from the lower classes."

"Of course...what impressed me the most was..."

At this point, Bronya helplessly covered her forehead: "He also kept using me as bait to attract the attention of those Rift creatures when I was young."

"Although he always manages to escape danger, he actually...!"

"But I really love watching the little duck being scared and crying loudly by the creatures from the Rift."

A nasty jerk of laughter rang out, causing both of them to react simultaneously.

Lola looked up.

All I saw was...

Gu Yan was already standing behind the two of them, looking very pleased.

Lola looked at him with the same eyes she would give a scumbag: "Scumbag."

Bronya, upon seeing Gu Yan, disregarded all manners and etiquette.

A blush rose to her cheeks, and she angrily punched Gu Yan in the face: "You bastard! How dare you say that!"

Snapped!

However, Gu Yan easily grasped it.

He realized that Bronya hadn't used any force at all: "Hey, stop calling me a bastard all the time."

"Back then, you said I was not allowed to marry anyone else."

"Why now..."
