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

Although she still felt a sense of unease, her busy work left her with no energy to think about anything else, and all she wanted to do after work was lie in bed and rest.

Just as Xing was beginning to get used to life here, Lancer unexpectedly appeared, only to be slacking off and flirting with girls.

Ignoring the idle adult, Xing, a model clerk, has begun to prioritize her work.

Later, when arranging the meeting room, the emergence of a meeting topic seemed to remind Xing of something.

[“The Impact of Starquakes on the Artistic Creation of Staff Members”, 2 participants, no time limit.]

The term "Starquake" last appeared in a side quest on a space station, instantly bringing back memories for viewers.

To the Dim Star!

"It's a side quest from when the game launched, and it's definitely the most romantic story I've ever read!"

"It seems they mentioned during the first anniversary Monopoly event that they had already left the Starquake region!"

"Oh my god! That's such a perfect ending!"

"Huh? A side quest gets such high praise?"

"Go see it! You definitely won't be disappointed!"

"Xingbao—Xingbao—wake up!"

Like a memory being activated, the sparks from the engine outside the space station, the slight weightlessness before the train jump began—these scattered memories had just surfaced when they were interrupted by Xing's inner voice.

Xing continued to numbly click the screen to assign meeting rooms; she was already quite adept at it and didn't even need to think about it.

After seeing a topic about the arrival of the Star Train, Lancer, who had been joking around, spoke up again.

[By the way, I heard the Star Train is here again and will be stopping at the space station for a while. Want to go check it out? Just to join in the fun.]

Seeing this, the viewers in the game were literally controlling Xingfei to run towards the platform, as if they were afraid of missing it if they were too slow.

When the audience finally saw that red figure, their hearts were filled with emotion.

Himeko: [Long time no see, Hoshi. How are you doing on the space station?]

A simple greeting can make you feel as at ease as if you've found your parents.

"Himeko-nee! I want to go home, waaaaaah!"

"No! Not good at all! My first choice was to get on the bus!"

"Everyone here ran here, Himeko-nee, I don't want to stay here! Someone won't let me go back to the train!"

"I have this strange feeling, like when I see parents at an internet addiction treatment center."

However, when the audience of the Starry Sky Studios really did not express the expected results, the distance revealed in Himeko's words as an outsider was heartbreaking.

Himeko: [I see. If you're having trouble, try talking to Estádio. I'm sure she'll be able to help you.]

These words struck a chord with countless viewers.

"I'm so heartbroken to see this! Everyone on the train would have stood up for me, but now I can only turn to the stationmaster..."

"If it were the normal Himeko, she would probably say that if you have any difficulties, everyone on the train will help you."

"It's so painful, it really hurts to watch, it feels like my life has been stolen..."

"The most familiar stranger!"

This scene in the drama made March 7, who was watching the show, feel heartbroken. She immediately hugged Xing next to her and cried.

"Waaaaah, Star, don't go! Even though there's no insurance or housing fund on the train, Pam can make fragrant, crispy, and delicious Pam Pam Pie!"

Seeing her like this, Xing smiled helplessly.

"Hey, I'm perfectly fine. I didn't hesitate when I chose to board the Star Train."

As she spoke, Xing seemed to remember something else: "But speaking of which, you were really lucky to get on the train before March 7th. If you had to do it again, who knows, a galactic storm might have blown you away."

Speaking of this, March 7th felt a lingering fear, but quickly put on an optimistic smile again.

"Hehe, that's why I always feel that the everyday things I'm experiencing now are miracles!"

Returning to the main story, after meeting Hoshi, Himeko recounts the train crew's experiences since their last farewell.

The journey had its ups and downs, and the number of passengers on the bus also changed.

Danheng eventually returned to Luofu, presumably because Luofu suffered heavy casualties in that great disaster, and Danheng decided to stay and help.

Shortly after Danheng left, Walter also found the road to his home planet Earth, so he got off the train and left.

As for Pam... Mentioning this, that sense of unease flashed through my mind again. You've never been on the train, so how did you know about Pam?

Himeko: [Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if you had left with us. Unfortunately, there are no regrets or "what ifs" on a pioneering journey.]

Xing: [What about March 7th?]

Himeko: [Little Sanyue... I don't know what to do... Sigh, I hope Yiting's friends can cure her.]

Seeing Himeko summarizing the train crew's situation and the members' dejected disembarkation was heartbreaking.

"Why did the train crew all leave? Waaaaah!"

"If the protagonist doesn't board the train, it won't receive help from the Star Core Hunters. In the 'what if' scenario, the immortal ship would suffer heavy losses and would need the Dragon Lord to oversee it."

"I didn't expect that even you, Old Yang, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, would run away!"

"Uncle Danheng got off the bus and was frozen in Onfaros on March 7th. Only Himeko and Pam were left on the bus..."

"It's over, the family is broken up!"

"This was truly the scariest episode..."

Chapter 713 Don't underestimate him!

As Himeko recounted the train crew's current desolate and deserted state, she recalled how passengers had briefly traveled with them, but now they had all gone their separate ways.

Now the train crew has received a request from a friend in the company, hoping to go to Camelot, which has been destroyed by the Legion, to see what the distress signal is all about.

Himeko: [We'll stop at the space station for a while and see some old friends—Hoshi. If you'd like, you can come with us this time.]

Upon hearing this, Xing was so excited that she was about to express her opinion on the spot, but then she heard that inner voice ring out again.

[Is that really what you think? What would you do if boarding the Star Train didn't make your life better?]

What if what awaits you is not a wondrous adventure, but endless cleaning and repairs, unhealable wounds, and a hopeless death...?

What if you can't offer them any help, if you become a burden on the train, if an unnamed passenger sacrifices themselves to save you, if everyone wants you to leave...?

The questions raised made the audience's hearts waver slightly.

"Ugh, that really dampened my spirits. There aren't that many adventures on the Star Train, are there?"

"Moreover, boarding the train means abandoning everything you had before, and the constant forward-moving exploration won't linger in the past for long."

Life is not just about poetry and distant places, but also about the mundane realities of the present.

"My partner is waiting for me, I have to go save Xiaobai!"

Influenced by the voice in her heart, Xing finally decided to think it over and fell into a deep sleep after returning to her room.

The perspective then shifts to the mastermind, Miss Note, with the robin beside her.

Miss Note: [Let's tell the story of a bird, a bird wrongfully imprisoned. She was once a singer, thrown into jail for writing songs disliked by the powerful.]

[In her cage, the bird heard many mournful cries. So she sang for her fellow caged birds, comforting their homesickness and inspiring their rebellious spirit.]

Finally, the bird, along with a pocket watch, a wolf, and countless companions, broke free of its cage.

The story being told is that of the first head of the Iris family, who is now Miss Yin Fu.

Later, the dream turned sour. Miss Note was framed and slandered for refusing to sing, and in the end, even her name was taken away.

When Miss Note returned to this world, she found that she had no one left to take revenge on.

Now, all she wants is to reclaim her stolen name through the Holy Grail, erase all her own works, and make her existence disappear—something the robin cannot provide.

Miss Note: [You want me to deactivate my Noble Phantasm? Then command me with a Command Spell! Master, just like those who used contracts and laws to steal my name and my career, come on!]

You might say that Miss Note took advantage of the robin's kindness with her despicable actions, but for her, who was just an empty shell, these opinions no longer mattered.

Robin: [You know I wouldn't do that, Miss Note! ...Let's make a bet, though I've never bet with anyone before.]

I bet those Masters and Servants whose heroic appearances you stripped them of will never be trapped by your Noble Phantasms—I have faith in them!

Originally, this statement sounded quite touching, but when the camera switched to Xing, who was sleeping on the chair next to him, it was quite a shock.

"Xing suddenly popped up, it's hilarious!"

"So Little Grey's bed on the space station is this small? I really miss the big rooms on the train."

"The difference is huge. On the train, if a raccoon sleeps on the sofa, it will be taken back to its room TT"

"Star: Please be quiet around here."

"Don't underestimate me! At least give me a dream with a seven-day weekend!"

When Xing woke up again, she was still exhausted, just like a working person who can never get enough sleep, but she could only grit her teeth and face the new day's work.

Is this my thirtieth day working on the space station? Or my ninetieth day? I can't remember. Anyway, I can do my job with my eyes closed right now.

With that thought in mind, the screen went black, and I began to complete the work with my eyes closed...

While doing a numbing job, Hoshino was also contemplating the decision of whether to stay or leave.

The silence throughout the scene was oppressive, so Xing decided to wander around and happened to run into Archer and Lancer chatting. She then shared her thoughts with them.

Archer: [Every year, a few clerks like you want to get on the train, but when the time comes, they all back down without exception.]

They understood that they simply wanted to escape their dreary lives, not embark on an adventure where they could lose their lives at any moment.

So, which one are you?

Faced with Xing's hesitation, Archer offered encouragement this time.

Archer: [Regret? Who in this world doesn't regret things? But if everyone hesitated because of them, I think there would be no heroes in the world.]

The train may have already departed, or it may not, but if you truly want to embark on this journey, what does it matter if there's no train?

If you truly feel like an anonymous nobody, then there's only one thing you need to do.

The next moment, only three identical options appeared in the dialog box next to the star.

I should get going!

These words were inspiring and were very helpful to viewers watching from the screen.

"What does it matter if there's no train if you really want to embark on this path? That's such a great saying!"

"Opportunities may have been missed, or they may never have existed, but as long as you truly want to change, what does it matter if there are no opportunities?"

"The best time to set off is now!"

"I've suddenly fallen in love with this storyline!"

"Let's go!"

And so, Xing bravely began to catch up with the Starry Sky Train, encountering her colleagues along the way who made strange noises to stop her.

The train has already left; going there will only lead to emptiness.

Let's go to the lab! Let's go to the cafeteria! Let's go fishing! Let's go to the movies!

Isn't life on the space station good? How many people would envy your life here?

There are no antimatter legions here, no abundant monstrosities; this is the most peaceful paradise in the universe.

However, for Xing at this moment, the road ahead is clear.

They've left? Then I'll steal a starship and catch up with them!

What's the point of all this if there are no companions by your side?

This is not the life I want!

Seeing that persuasion was ineffective, the strange staff members blocked Xing's path.

Do you think you're special? Those nameless travelers who were far more capable than you... Tirnan, Kellerbeck, they were all swallowed by the darkness of deep space, never to return!

In response to these words, Xing simply gave a smug smile, just like always.

So you finally admit... I'm just a nobody?
