Star Railway: I'm developing the Star Railway mobile game at my company.

"And he even has pecs!"

"I can't take it anymore! Gallagher, just handcuff me and interrogate me properly!"

Gallagher then came to Firefly's rescue, explaining that they were trying to capture a silver-haired creature, not a silver-haired girl.

Don't worry, miss, I believe this is a misunderstanding. How could such a lovely girl be a stowaway?

After Gallagher left, Firefly expressed his gratitude to Star.

Thanks to your help just now! Otherwise, I might really have... been arrested.

Now that Xing has learned Liu Ying's identity, she can't help but speculate after seeing this.

If I hadn't been there, the fireflies probably would have set the ocean ablaze...

In response to Liu Ying's grateful remarks, Gui Naifen chose a dialogue with great interest.

This isn't free help...

I...I know that if you receive a favor, you should repay it!

Therefore, fireflies suggested that they could act as guides for the stars.

[Although the Hound family mistook me for an illegal immigrant, I'm actually a local—Ryuhoshi, an entertainer from the Iris family! Even if I'm just an extra...]

Chapter 234 What does "hehe" mean?

Seeing that Firefly was going to be her guide and introduce her to Pinocchio, Xing, who was looking around anyway, naturally agreed.

Before setting off, Firefly's sharp eyes scanned her surroundings, as if she had noticed something, but she quickly composed herself.

So Xing began to follow the fireflies on their tour of Pinocchio.

The first stop is the Aude Shopping Center, where you can buy anything you want, from luxury goods and clothing to trendy toys and even car dealerships, as long as you have enough Clover Coins.

However, because the prices here were so outrageous, Firefly didn't take Star inside to take a closer look, and instead went to the plaza outside.

Come here—I'll treat you to something delicious!

When they arrived at a restaurant, Firefly stopped.

This is it. Have you ever heard the saying—in dreams, hunger is the most precious spice?

[This place has most of Pinocchio's signature dishes, such as Clock Pizza, Oak Smoothie, Alfalfa Salad... and classic Sorida! Pick whatever you like, it's on me!]

Xing couldn't help but remind him of his extravagant manner.

My spending habits are a bit high...

"I think it should be fine, I do have some savings..."

Then, the 20000 credits that the Firefly had was in hand. Coincidentally, it was just enough to spend all the food in the store.

So Gui Naifen bought them all, since she could eat them all together later anyway.

Seeing that the entire budget had been spent, Liu Ying's voice began to tremble slightly.

Ah, this...this...

"...Have you ordered yet? You...have good taste! Haha...Well, I'll pay the bill then..."

【Hmm...】

This series of reactions suddenly made Gui Naifen feel a strange sense of guilt.

"Uh...isn't there an option to eat together?"

As Liu Ying paid the money and headed to the next location, Gui Naifen was completely dumbfounded.

"The streamer is so mean! He's bringing in bad people!"

"Fireflies are good! Little Guizi is bad!"

"This is all Liuying's savings, so please spend it sparingly, it hurts my heart!"

"Holy crap? I thought I was paying for it myself, so I bought it all!"

"How could I bear to bully Xiao Liuying? Luckily, I only ordered a drink!"

"She's so gentle! (Even though I spent all my money)"

"If she hadn't spent all her money, Firefly would have told you that she loves oak cake rolls, but because she didn't have enough money, she could only buy one a day. But you, my friend, you spent all her money!"

"I have to kick myself when I think about it in the middle of the night, I'm such a monster!"

The entire live stream room instantly turned into a cyber confessional, and many viewers began to regret spending all of Liu Ying's money.

Meanwhile, on the other side, after witnessing the storyline in the game, March 7th turned her gaze to the star beside her.

"You didn't spend all of their money back then, did you?"

"Hey, what do you mean?"

Then, Firefly brought Star to the main road of Golden Hour, where passing unicycles would even bump into the player, triggering an achievement called "Always on the Roadside...".

At the center of the Golden Hour stands a statue of a clock boy.

It is said that the character of the Clock Boy was based on a watchmaker, a legend known to everyone in Pinocchio.

In response, Firefly suggested that Star Station go over and take pictures. During the process, they also discovered an origami bird stuck on the statue, which is also a gameplay element related to in-game collection.

We strolled around, stopping frequently to see the grand theater floating in the air and learn about the origins of Suleda.

The meticulous and patient explanations along the way finally gave the audience a vacation feeling, and their goodwill towards Liuying gradually increased with each interaction.

After arriving at the park, Firefly and Star received some Eiden Tokens to use on the rides.

It's worth mentioning that these gashapon machines also have a grand prize section, which includes a Clockwork Boy head and a four-star Void Cone [The Show Begins].

Unfortunately, even after using ten tokens, I still didn't win.

After their outing, Xing found Firefly at the beverage bar.

[Did you have fun, Xing?]

For some reason, Xing sensed a hint of sadness in Liuying's expression, and Liuying offered an explanation.

It's not so much sadness as it is... this dream is too loving, too forgiving.

It is vast and profound, like an ocean, where even the most insignificant person can find peace.

"...I am truly grateful that you chose to help. Because of this, I am able to introduce you to this paradise—a place that welcomes me even though I don't belong here."

Upon hearing this, the audience sensed something unusual.

Why do I suddenly have a bad feeling?

"Don't make it sound like a final farewell!"

"What's there to be cowardly about? We can see fireflies in the forecast, there's nothing to panic about, let's pop the champagne!"

As the two were talking, Liu Ying looked to the side again and then said.

[Star, could you come a little closer? — Just a little closer, I want to ask you a question...]

This move made the audience's lips curl up involuntarily.

"Ouch, ouch, what are you doing!"

"I like you, I'm willing, I'll save you!"

"Come any closer, and my heart will melt!"

"First it was gold dust, now it's fireflies, I'm truly guilty of a terrible sin!"

"Humanoid Succubus Star Core Essence!"

But unexpectedly, Firefly asked if Star had come to Pinocchio alone.

[...because someone is following you.]

Hearing this, Xing wanted to turn around and check the situation, but Liu Ying warned him warily.

"Don't look back. I'm sure his target is you; I haven't lost him since we said goodbye to Mr. Gallagher."

I've considered whether this person is your friend, but my intuition tells me they aren't.

He is approximately 1.8 meters tall, with an accuracy within two centimeters. He is physically strong and clearly well-trained. His stride is long, but his footsteps are very light and barely audible, leaving no footprints...

As the audience listened to Liu Ying's description, they all became alert.

Then, as Liu Ying continued to add to the story, a familiar figure began to appear in the minds of the audience.

[...He seems to be very skilled in combat—the stealthy kind. He has large hands, but long, slender, and dexterous fingers. I guess he's used to using knives, short swords, daggers...]

The camera then showed a close-up of the lower body, and seeing those familiar long legs, the audience was absolutely certain.

Do you know someone like this? A burgundy coat, green eyes, dark blue hair...

Sambo walked openly up to Xing, revealing his familiar fawning smile.

[Hey, isn't this my loyal customer—Hoshi!]

Chapter 235 The Identity of Liu Ying

After hearing from the fireflies that someone was following them, everyone was wondering what kind of plot might be triggered next.

When Old Sambo came out, everyone felt it was unexpected, yet also perfectly reasonable.

After all, Sambo is a character who appears in the PV, and as the Masked Fool, it wouldn't be surprising if he appeared anywhere.

It's been so long, darling!

Although it was somewhat sudden, the audience still felt a surge of inexplicable joy upon seeing this familiar face.

"Damn it, Sambo! It's you!"

"Oh my, it's been so long! I've missed old Sambo so much!"

"Dude, don't disturb my date with Liuying!"

"Although, he winked at me and called me 'darling'!"

After exchanging pleasantries, Sangbo mistook the firefly beside him for March 7th.

This mix-up left viewers feeling a bit strange. March 7th and fireflies—they don't seem alike, do they?

However, Sambo had been acting strangely, so no one paid much attention to it.

Returning to the story, Sambo extended an invitation.

[I've been observing you all for a while now. Miss Firefly certainly knows about Pinocchio, but when it comes to adult entertainment... I'm afraid I, Sambo, am still a cut above.]

This statement immediately piqued the interest of the audience.

"Oh? Tell me more about the adults' entertainment!"

"Is it a new game?"

"Don't worry, they are all definitely 12+ compliant projects!"

As expected, Sambo only got to experience Hanu Brothers' arcade game once.

All Xing had to do were three identical touch options; there was no choice at all.

Finally, Xing mustered up her courage and touched the suspicious television.

Suddenly, a bright white light shone, and the star transformed into a tiny Ha Nu brother.

Oh my god!

Sangbo's tone clearly betrayed that he almost burst out laughing, and Liuying, standing beside him, also expressed her surprise.

Oh my god... what happened to you?!

You've become so...so cool.

The adjective that Liu Ying clearly had been thinking about for a while before coming up with made the audience laugh.

"Haha, even the little firefly is a bit speechless!"

"They must have spent ages searching through the dictionary to find this adjective that sounds like a compliment!"

"She really made me cry to death!"
