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

The overly genuine reaction from the Pipixi people, the terror in their tone, filled Xing with immense guilt.

No matter how vain you may appear on the surface, your heart remains soft...

The Westerners' reaction and the witty narration once again had the audience in stitches.

"Hahaha, one dares to say it and the other dares to believe it!"

"Oh my, how could this Star Core Spirit be so wicked!"

"Is Xing really feeling guilty, haha?"

The man then explained that he was looking for a friend, and that his room number was 13527, which happened to be the same room where the guy named Luo had been before.

It seems that my colleague from the 135th floor had already helped me check in.

This is the perfect teamwork we have; there's no need for communication at all. We're really amazing!

When Xing met this Pipixi man, he casually asked about his valid identification.

【...Uh? Do I need any more documents?】

"Oh...no, I'm sorry, sir, I've never been to such a luxurious place before. I didn't know there were so many rules..."

The Pipixi man, who was standing still, was stunned by the question. Then he showed a wronged expression, and a clear liquid began to swirl around his eyes, as if blaming himself for not knowing the rules and not having prepared his documents in advance.

The narrator started to exert himself again as he watched this scene unfold.

The second most unbearable thing in the world is watching a Pipixiv shed tears in front of you—the heartbreak is second only to witnessing a beautiful young woman with silver hair turn into bubbles before your eyes. You decide to let him go...

This narration was enough to make the audience completely lose their composure.

"A silver-haired beauty turning into bubbles, isn't that like fireflies?"

"Alright, alright, so this is how you play with the narration? Let's just go for a scorched earth operation!"

"Haha, the narrator must have been infiltrated by the Masked Fool!"

"Watch the bottom line!"

In the end, the timid Pipixi man also successfully entered the hotel, staring at the other person's back while resting his chin on his hand and thinking.

He looks quite honest, so there shouldn't be any major problems, right?

It's like a flag; barring any unforeseen circumstances, something unexpected is bound to happen.

However, the audience's attention was quickly diverted as the next guests were even more distinguished.

That's... placer gold, and topaz?!

The appearance of these two was truly unexpected for the audience, as it is rare to see a side quest involving so many characters.

Xing in the story was also a little surprised, but then she straightened up and thought that she couldn't embarrass herself in front of acquaintances, so she took the initiative to wave and greet them.

【Yo...】

[...humph?]

The two men exclaimed in surprise, and then Toppa and Sandgold stepped forward to speak with them.

[Hey, isn't this Xing? We were just talking about you, what a coincidence!]

It's been a while, my friend. You've certainly been keeping busy while I've been gone.

[First, he gave Pinocchio a minor reprieve, then he defused the crisis on the Quetzalcoatl—though it turned out to be a false alarm—and now how did he end up as the lobby manager? Is he so short on cash that he needs to work two jobs at once?]

Upon hearing Sand Gold's words, Toppa picked up the thread and extended an olive branch to Throwing Star.

[Oh...did you get too tired from your long journey and want to experience office life? You should have said so earlier! The strategic investment department is currently expanding; we could have just assigned you a project manager position.]

Chapter 363 Aha's Big Hand

Hearing Toppa extend an olive branch to Xing, it wasn't a joke.

If Xing is truly interested, given Topa's authority and Xing's own qualifications, she could indeed have a very high starting point within the company.

[P25...no, at least P30, direct entry to Pierpoint headquarters. Accommodation and three meals a day included, all travel expenses reimbursed through company funds, how about that?]

The audience was stunned by the generous terms.

"Wow, starting with a P30! I'd follow Director Topa!"

"She really made me cry!"

"It reminds me of that company employee who went through more than ten rounds of interviews."

"This is the network of connections you build on your journey, haha."

"Our Star Core Elite are considered rare talents."

Scott: Wait, this guy became my boss as soon as he joined the company?

Although Toppa's offer sounded very tempting, Hoshi was, after all, an unknown passenger who had already joined the Starry Sky Train, so he still had to talk to Himeko first before poaching her.

In other words, children don't understand these things, so they ask adults to explain them.

Seeing Xing looking like she was seriously considering it, Sand Gold next to her also got anxious.

"Wait a minute, that's not fair, Director Toppa."

If I remember correctly, you have quite a few capable people at the P30 level or above under you, right? In comparison, what I really need is a project manager with ability and courage.

"Work with me, and you'll start with a P35—all the resources I have are at your disposal. How about it?"

Upon hearing this, Topa frowned, and a tense atmosphere began to emerge in the frame.

Topa: [Heh, I see... It seems the Gold Mine Director is trying to poach my talent from me face-to-face?]

Toppa: [Why do you have so few people under you? I don't need to point that out, do I? Instead of questioning others' management abilities, why not spend time reflecting on your own work habits?]

Like a classic scene from a debate game, the screen now features more dynamic lines, keeping the audience entertained.

Then, Sand Gold retorted.

Hmph... Do work habits really matter? Don't forget that one of the core values ​​of the Strategic Investment Department is results-oriented.

[—They couldn't even handle a small hockey puck. Director Toppa's emphasis on work habits seems more like an excuse for project failure, doesn't it?]

A fierce battle unfolded between two company executives, and Xing tried to mediate, but all she got in response was Zhang Zhang's whimpering.

Since things have come to this, let's just watch the show...

Topa remained unfazed by the words of the gold dust.

[Trying to provoke me with your usual tricks, huh? If I remember correctly, even if you were to pin the entire Pinocchio deal on me, your success rate would still be a few percentage points lower than mine, right?]

Sand Gold: [Oh dear~ Focusing only on quantity and ignoring quality, I never thought our beautiful and kind-hearted Director Topa would also learn to use such a fallacy. Honestly, you know better than anyone the difficulty level of the projects I take on, don't you?]

Toppa: [Then I really have to give you a shout-out. Remember that Aprilon stock market report you sent me? It predicted that the Aprilon index would rebound strongly after bottoming out, and advised investors to seize the opportunity and immediately increase their positions—]

[—And the result? The very next day, as soon as the market opened, the index plummeted below 2800 million points...2800 million, that's an all-time low, an all-time low!]

Gold Sands: [So you're starting to dredge up old grievances now? I was just trying to be helpful, hoping everyone could make money together... How can you blame me for such a low-probability accident?]

This scene, where they so realistically exposed each other's shortcomings, especially after it involved the stock market, finally made the audience unable to hold back their laughter.

"Hahaha, a tribute to the legendary stock market Eptheron!"

"When others rise, I fall; when others fall, I hit the daily limit down. My main strategy is to follow the decline but not the rise!"

"Amazing Moments!"

"Ten Amber Eras! From the opening of the market until now, a full ten Amber Eras have passed, and the index is still hovering around 3000 million points!"

"Even the luck of gold dust is no longer working; now it's as if even the Mother Goddess would be trapped!"

"As expected of the 'joyful stock market,' it never disappoints when it comes to being disappointing!"

"It is said that there are Pleasure Envoys or even Ah Ha behind Big Ai, and the market will always drop a few points at the end of each trading day, just for this feeling of manipulating people's hearts!"

"Aha's huge hand is terrifying!"

"Aha: Wrong children, because I'm trapped too!"

"Ahaha, how embarrassing!"

However, the part about losing money can also be explained by placer gold.

[Didn't we already review this? The informant who gave me the information was your old friend at the Aptheron Interstellar Stock Exchange. Who would have thought that someone who'd spent half his life in the stock market would be such a good-for-nothing?]

[Hmph, now you're not going to mention your unbeatable luck? Quite flexible standards, aren't they, Director of Gold Platinum?]

Ultimately, their argument ended with the appearance of Jade.

Oh dear, I could hear you two arguing from far away... These two kids really get along well.

This scene evokes the feeling of a mother stopping her children from arguing, which also leaves the audience with a sense of感慨 (gan3kai3, a complex emotion encompassing both feeling and feeling).

"Company Friends and Family Group www"

"Haha, I never expected to see topaz arguing!"

"Sato is having a blast again, what a love-hate relationship!"

"Director of Placer~"

"It really gives off a vibe of a parent stopping a sibling from arguing."

"It was so much fun, especially the debate-style scene in the game, it was hilarious!"

"I never expected that even a senior executive of the company could get stuck in the stock market. Does this mean that my stock trading skills are on par with those of the company director?"

"Genius! According to you, does that mean I'm already way ahead of the competition even if I don't trade stocks?"

"You know what, you really don't know, but I saw an online stock trading competition, and after a month, the contestant who neither made a profit nor a loss came in second place!"

"Stop cursing! Stop cursing! Once I break even, I promise I'll never trade stocks again!"

The group then got back to the main topic. Toppa handed over the room key to prepare for check-out, while Sandy still joked.

Wait, why were you first? If I remember correctly, I arrived before you. Has everyone forgotten the etiquette of arriving first?

It seems you've truly recovered completely? What a pity!

Arguing with you is also part of the rehabilitation process, Director Toppa~

After exchanging sarcastic remarks, Jade handed over both of their room keys together.

Subsequently, with the guidance of three members of the Stoneheart team, you successfully helped them complete the check-out process.

It was just a narration, but it unexpectedly made the audience unable to hold back their emotions.

"Three members of the Stoneheart Ten-Man Team providing guidance... Help! Does anyone understand the joke in this line?!"

"I suddenly saw this sentence and laughed so hard my stomach hurt!"

"What do you mean by using a sledgehammer to crack a nut? And why were you doing the work under the customer's instructions?!"

Even Sand Gold couldn't help but complain that they should consider withdrawing their offer.

Afterwards, amidst expectations for deeper cooperation with Jade, the three departed, and Xing began preparing to receive the next group of guests.

The next character to appear brought another unexpected surprise to the audience.

At the same time, a familiar voice rang out within the Taibu Division of the Luofu Immortal Ship.

Chapter 364 This is your job

In the storyline, after seeing off the company group, another familiar face appeared, much to the delight of the audience, causing a stir among viewers.

"Wow, it's Sparrow Baby!"

"Great love for Mahjong Master!"

"I really love Sparrow, I don't know how Fu Xuan can resist!"

"Seeing Bluebird in Pinocchio would be a wonderful surprise!"

"long time no see!"

"This one's even more impressive; he probably just coasted through this, haha."

Just like Xing, Qingque was also somewhat incredulous at this moment.

【Huh...?】
