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

"That's enough, I feel sorry for him!"

"Ouch, it's still bright red from being freshly applied, it feels so rough... no, it hurts!"

"So this wasn't painted on after all..."

The indifferent voice on the other end continued.

Shut up, I didn't give you permission to speak, you Tsiganian hyena.

A moment of silent panting followed, then the slave owner's voice continued.

The group in black suits didn't say much, so I don't know what methods you used to survive that massacre.

But I think you're very lucky, so I've bought you. From now on, you and your luck are my assets, understand?

Along with the gold dust, 34 slaves were also purchased.

Because of his good looks, he attracted a lot of bets, so the slave owner decided to let them play a survival game to see how lucky he was.

Upon hearing this, Sand Gold inquired about how much the other party had spent to buy him.

Sixty taambas, a number that is negligible in today's placer gold.

Although Sand Gold wanted to gamble on his luck and hope he could come back alive.

But at this moment, he clearly didn't even have the right to sit at the table.

You're just a bargaining chip, destined to be thrown away by someone else. Either you bring back more chips for your master, or... never come back.

So, or nothing at all—don't embarrass me, lucky one.

The memories of the past end here.

Although they had learned some of the history of placer gold from Ladio, many viewers still felt a pang of emotion when they actually witnessed its history.

"Oh my god, this is too tragic!"

"Alas, as slaves, we don't even have the right to sit at the table."

"I never imagined that Sand Gold's catchphrase would originate from here."

"Is becoming the sole survivor of the entire tribe a blessing or a curse?"

"Looking at it this way, the sister of the gold dust should also be..."

"Damn it, I can't stand this kind of beautiful, strong, and miserable guy! I'll slap him, I'll slap him, okay?!"

Then, the perspective shifted back to the train crew.

Gallagher led the group to the Dream Bar, where they met the bartender, Sister Shu Weng.

After a lighthearted bartending scene, Gallagher got down to business.

He explained the discord between watchmaker Mikhail and his family, and then proceeded to give a detailed account of Pinocchio's history.

Initially, company prisoners were sent to this prison to help the Flowing Light Memory Court salvage the leaked memories from the large hole.

However, due to long-term exposure to high concentrations of memory substances, people's dreams begin to overlap, resembling reality, which is the origin of Pinocone today.

Later, a war broke out in the prison, and people began to fight for freedom.

It was a massive war, involving many forces, including the Masked Fool, the Nameless Guest, and the Fictional Historian, as well as the clockmaker Mikhail.

[But if you calculate it this way... wouldn't the watchmaker have lived for hundreds of years?]

Gallagher was unaware of this, only saying that the other party was already a watchmaker when they met.

So March 7th asked in confusion.

"...Sir Sheriff, how old are you?"

Upon hearing this, Gallagher turned his head, revealing his weathered face covered in stubble, and calmly said.

[...Thirteen years old.]

[That seems impossible!]

Upon hearing this, countless viewers could no longer contain their emotions.

"what???"

"This guy's thirteen?"

"Pfft, hahaha, that's bullshit!"

Gallagher: I just turned thirteen this year!

"I thought he was an older man, but he's actually a young boy?"

Yanqing: No, buddy?

"Illegal uncle... I don't recognize these two words together at all."

"No, I feel like my brain has been contaminated with memes!"

Xing was deeply moved by this scene. Although she couldn't believe it when she first heard it, she realized now that what the other person said was true.

Gallagher then went on to talk about the history of Pinocchio.

After the prison was liberated, for the future of Asdena, the watchmaker invited the family to build Pinocone together.

However, in the years that followed, the watchmaker was betrayed, and the family gradually took over Pinocone.

According to Gallagher, the real traitor is very likely lurking within the Oak family.

A lot of key information is starting to emerge, just waiting for an opportunity to connect them.

The group then decided to ask Walter about the situation.

Walter and Huang Quan also visited the Morning Dew Mansion. Since it was empty, the two decided to explore it first.

During the process, it was also learned that the family had begun an internal investigation on Sunday, which confirmed the previous claim that there was a traitor within the family.

The scene then switches again as Sunday arrives.

On the desk sat a glass of red wine, and the Jade Lady, wearing a large hat, was looking with great interest at the gold dust chained below.

[What beautiful eyes! Tell me, do they glow in the dark?]

Chapter 270 Kakavasya

The audience was amazed when they saw the jade scene that suddenly appeared.

"Oh! It's the big sister!"

"Jadeite, this should also be one of the ten people from Stoneheart, right?"

"It will be released, right? It definitely will be released!"

"By the way, did nobody notice the gold dust with the iron chain around his neck? It looks so disgusting~"

"Being averse to everything will only harm you!"

When the jade appeared, Toppa was unusually excited.

"Wow, I didn't expect to see Lady Emerald in a picture. She is just as dignified and beautiful as she is in person!"

Then Toppa picked up his phone and excitedly sent a message to Jade, which made Sand Gold shake his head and sigh.

Sigh, can't you learn to be a little more mature and composed? You already prepared a fully-funded account for Ms. Emerald a long time ago.

Let's get back to the story.

When Jade praised his eyes, Sand Gold simply replied indifferently.

If I could, I would definitely sell them.

Jade arrived here not only because Sand Gold had used its cunning talent to kill its master.

It was because of this slave that he single-handedly deceived the Erudite Society and the company.

In the end, no one profited from this scam.

Jade became curious and wanted to meet this somewhat intelligent slave.

And this is what Kakawasha truly wants right now.

[Madam, I have gotten what I wanted—to be brought before you to begin the next high-stakes gamble.]

Let's talk about the second big bet. What are you planning to bet on this time?

"I'll stake my life on you; I bet you won't send me to the execution ground."

In contrast, Kakawasha also stated his desired wager: 30 Taambas.

With this money, I can climb to a higher position than you and wield more wealth than you.

This incredibly arrogant statement, when placed on Sand Gold, who is now one of the ten members of the Stone Heart, seems even more outrageous, leaving the audience somewhat surprised.

"Wow, so that's how placer gold went from nothing to where it is now?"

"This is so inspiring! It could be used to film a TV series!"

"Back then, Sand Gold was able to win the Stone Hearts by using his status as a slave. Today, it's no problem for me, Star Core Essence, to take down a fully-fledged Yellow Springs in one draw!"

"Wake up! You don't have the destiny of your entire clan!"

"Holy crap, what kind of demon is this?"

Clearly, Kakavasha's performance won Jade's favor, and ultimately, she gave Alluvial Gold more chips.

Life is like a long-term investment; choose the right people, do the right things, achieve the right results, and demonstrate your value to the world.

No one can make only the right decisions their whole life, but good fortune has always been on my side; I've never lost.

Is it because the Mother Goddess is protecting me? If so, she must be watching over me right now; I am sure to succeed.

Just as Sand Gold was wondering how long his good luck could last in the gamble, a data notification sounded.

Don't you have any self-awareness... you despicable gambler?

When he opened his eyes again, the influence of the harmony continued to deepen, and Sand Gold even began to see a phantom that looked just like himself.

Am I dreaming, or have I completely gone mad?

Perhaps both.

"You've already forgotten about me? Who gave you the idea to be tied to the electric chair by the warlords of Imanika?"

Although Sand Gold was unwilling to admit it, the phantom at this moment was clearly more like a manifestation of Sand Gold's mind, knowing everything about himself and his thoughts at this moment.

【Kakawasha, I am your future.】

There was no time to worry about that for the time being, so they continued onward, and saw a small child ahead.

[Remember, minors aren't allowed in Golden Time... Hey, what are you doing here all alone?]

After saying this, the headache returned, and the child in front of him turned around.

【What's wrong, sir...you don't look well?】

Beneath the child's blond exterior were a pair of eyes with the same patterned color as Sand Gold's, which surprised Sand Gold.

"...That's impossible, who are you?"

Seeing the surprised expression on Sand Gold's face, the audience was also puzzled.

"Huh? Look at these eyes, isn't this the placer gold from when I was a child?"

"Perhaps this eye is unique to his tribe, which is why Sand Gold was somewhat surprised."

"I have a bold theory: maybe Sand Gold... never looked in a mirror as a child and doesn't recognize himself?"

"So this really is small gold dust, right!"

The child's next words seemed to confirm the audience's guess.

"They're beautiful, aren't they? My sister said they were a gift from Fingo's mom; colorful eyes bring good luck."

The child looked at the gold dust and suddenly said with some surprise.

Ah, sir...you also have beautiful eyes, so lovely!

These words convinced the audience that this was indeed small gold nuggets, and they all became excited.

Wow, it really is you!
