Honkai Impact 3rd, Paradise Typewriter isn't for making this kind of game.

"Hmph, whatever."

However, Theresa's tone didn't seem as confrontational as when they first met. Instead, she glanced out the ship's window, diverting her attention.

"You bastard, where did you run off to? Could you be the suspicious person on the spaceship?"

Faced with Miss Hei Xi's questioning, just as Xia Yuan was about to deliver his prepared explanation, Theresa, standing behind him, unexpectedly came to his rescue, saying, "I asked this guy to investigate some things. Now that everyone is here, let's begin."

"If someone wants to carry out their crime, they'd have to be on this ship from the very beginning..."

Just as Fu Hua was about to continue her analysis to everyone, Cang Xuan Zhi Shu moved his small, round legs step by step to her side, put his hands on his hips and looked up at her.

"Hey, you blockhead, stop rambling and get to the point!"

The Book of Azure Xuan stretched out its small hands and kept pounding on Fu Hua's body, but due to the height difference, it could only pound on her thighs, which was nothing more than tickling Fu Hua.

She gently pressed down on Cangxuan's little head and affectionately rubbed it.

"To put it simply..."

As the hands of the Chiyuan clock turned, the atmosphere in the conference room gradually became heavy.

Rita, sitting in the armchair, exuded her usual charming smile and maintained an elegant posture, while Durandal, standing beside her, kept her eyes darting around, seemingly secretly observing Xia Yuan. Perhaps afraid of being noticed, she pretended to look out the window, and even her left cheek was covered in sweat due to some guilty conscience.

Seele placed her hands in front of her clothes, listening attentively, while Miss Black Seele, standing to the side, was sipping a beverage unique to the spaceship, occasionally squeezing it, her eyes glancing towards the corner; she didn't seem to be listening.

She came with Seele simply because Seele was coming.

However, she instinctively moved closer to Seele, feeling as if something scary was watching her from the corner. She regretted dragging Seele and the bad guy to watch a horror movie with her.

Theresa looked around...

She seemed to swallow back what she wanted to say for some unspeakable reason.

Meanwhile, in order to avoid arousing suspicion, Bronya and Mei seemed to be intentionally keeping their presence to themselves. Clearly, the two of them also had secrets they couldn't reveal. And in such a heavy and oppressive atmosphere, a certain cute fairy was laughing with great joy.

Unexpectedly, a space trip yielded so much fairy magic energy, bringing us one step closer to awakening the pink fairy.

"It seems Xia Yuan has been working very hard during the ship's voyage."

Chapter 527 Miss Hei hope, who is afraid of Mr. Houmu

Fu Hua extended her index finger and pushed up the middle of her subtly reflective black glasses frame.

She could tell that everyone present seemed suspicious, and that there were some unspeakable secrets hidden during the spaceship's journey, but she was determined to find out the truth.

“The prisoner is among us.”

She pointed her index finger at everyone in the conference room, and at that moment, the Book of Azure Profound suddenly darted in front of Fu Hua and coughed lightly, saying, "Ahem... So I hereby declare the detective game officially open!"

Fu Hua covered her forehead and sighed helplessly. Xiao Xuan joined in the fun again.

After hearing the "detective game" proposed by the class president and the Book of Azure, Mei and Bronya's expressions in the meeting room became very subtle and unnatural. They were probably the two people who were least willing to be investigated among everyone present.

Coo-coo, coo-coo—

The Red Kite Clock hanging on the conference room wall began to rapidly reverse, and the time reached 48 hours before it had left Earth and headed to the lunar base.

Fu Hua was gazing at the blue planet gradually receding into the distance from the bridge.

Her hometown... and behind her, someone was recording the back of a blockhead with their phone. Perhaps they accidentally bumped into something, because the image of Cang Xuanzhi, a little money-grubber and a little glutton, with a steamed bun in her mouth, appeared in the phone's video. As if sensing something, she glanced up slightly.

【12:00】

There, dressed in a cooking dress, Durandal was engrossed in a struggle with a jar of jam.

That's right, Rita and Durandal are in charge of making the xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), and she's in charge of disposing of them—a perfect internal cycle, isn't it?

Perhaps due to excessive force, the opened jam jar sprayed towards the face of a glutton lying amidst a pile of steamed buns. The previously contented Cangxuan Book suddenly panicked as the jam jar drew closer.

【20:00】

After dinner—

In the ship's projection room, Seele and Miss Black Seele sat side by side watching a movie playing on the screen.

"what!"

However, the giant Houmu that appeared on the screen seemed different from the ordinary Houmu. When it turned around, its back revealed sharp, shark-like teeth and eyes that glowed with a blood-red light... Miss Heixi's popcorn spilled all over the floor, her fingers gripped the armrest tightly, her pupils rolled back, and tears streamed down her face. She looked completely terrified by the Houmu on the screen.

"Well....."

Seele hurriedly comforted Miss Black Seele. "Your other self, are you alright?" She actually felt fine and didn't find it particularly terrifying... On the contrary, she was quite interested in this starkly contrasting [Mr. Houmu].

"Of course it's alright. It's just this, this level. It's just a mere Mr. Houmu. How could I be afraid of it? It's not like it can come out of the screen to find me."

Although Miss Hei hope was terrified, she still tried to appear calm and composed in front of Xi Er, but the tears welling up in her eyes had already exposed her pretense.

"Is that so? Well, Mr. Houmu is here to see you~~~ His favorite food is a delicious girl like you, Miss Kuroki."

A slightly deep voice echoed from behind the seat to Miss Kuroki's ears.

Slurp—slurp—

At that moment, Miss Kuroki could even feel some unknown liquid dripping onto her shoulder. The intense sense of terror made her shudder, her face turn deathly pale, and her eyes roll back... and she fainted.

"Hei hope, who is usually fearless, why is she so easily frightened?"

Xia Yuan removed the Houmu headgear and helplessly rubbed his curly hair that had been crushed by it. He had only intended to tease Miss Hei Xi, but he hadn't expected things to turn out this way. Fortunately, Xi'er could use the power of the Herrscher of Life and Death to help Miss Hei Xi wake up.

Fu Hua, sitting on the other side to Seele's right, appeared much more nonchalant.

Wearing red holographic glasses, she sipped her drink. Even if Mr. Houmu appeared in front of her on the screen, she wouldn't be afraid in the slightest. After all, such a small scene was just an insignificant ripple in her long life.

However, the Herrscher of Knowledge, who had known him for many years, saw through him at a glance.

"Old fogey, old fogey... Relax, it's just a movie, no need to be so tense and ready to pounce, right? I'm more worried that you'll punch through the screen right now than the Houmu on the screen."

The Law-Bearer, bound like a rice dumpling by chains, squirmed in her seat.

at the same time--

Miss Black Seele slowly opened her eyes under Seele's power of creation. She seemed to still have some kind of shadow... Looking at Xia Yuan, who had taken off the Houmu headgear in front of her, she was furious.

"You rascal, is it really necessary to scare people from behind like that?! Of all the characters you could play, why did you have to imitate that Houmu from the movie screen?!"

She wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, hiding her entire body inside, with only her face showing. A blush of shame and indignation rose on her cheeks, and she glanced to the side, not daring to meet the eyes of Xi'er, who was comforting her beside her. She had embarrassed herself in front of Xi'er once again.

"Actually, Duck insisted on dragging me along, wanting me to become the motion capture actor for 'Mr. Houmu.' The 'Mr. Houmu' on the screen just now was actually a movie that Bronya and I temporarily co-produced. Duck and I will even have our names included at the end!"

"Huh? So it was made by you and Bronya together, Xiaoyuan. Is Bronya planning to enter the film and television industry?" Seele asked in surprise.

"Well~ you know Seele, she's always willing to help with anything related to Honkai Impact 3rd. But if the original studio really does switch careers and move from the gaming industry to making a Honkai Impact 3rd movie, you absolutely have to come see it, Seele~"

Seele thought for a moment, then took out a black and white diary.

"To celebrate becoming a big star in the future, could you sign this book for me and another Seele in advance?" Looking at Seele, who was like a little angel, Xia Yuan couldn't refuse at all... He wrote his name in her little notebook with great effort.

However, on the black pages with patterns of spider lilies, eyes, and chains, Xia Yuan vaguely saw his name being mercilessly scribbled over and over again.

Chapter 528 Take good care of your health!

And at the back of Miss Hei Xi's diary, the words "heart failure" were faintly written. Xia Yuan's hand holding the pen trembled slightly. Just how many times had Hei Xi cursed him in her little notebook?!

"I don't need that lousy signature of that bad guy..."

"You wretched bastard, don't get too cocky! Sooner or later, you'll fall into my hands, and then you'll be sorry!"

Curled up in her blanket, Miss Kuroki murmured to herself, her hands clenching silently. She truly hated the bad guy to the core, wishing she could slap him to death on the spot, but that would be too easy on him...

Hmph, just wait and see, she will definitely retaliate in kind.

When night fell, she would drag the bad guy to watch the scariest horror movies, scaring him half to death before she could vent her anger!

"I said look how scared you are, you're so pathetic. A mere guest dressed as Mr. Houmu can scare you like this. I said, Heihei Xi, if you're bad, practice more. If you're scared, don't watch. Look at the great Herrscher of Knowledge, she's completely fine."

Shi Bao's voice came softly from the other seat.

As a pair of bickering lovers who always argue whenever they meet... she enjoys seeing the other embarrass themselves in public.

"Drooling...!"

This time, however, Miss Hei Xi was very unusual and did not argue with Xiao Shi. She just curled up in the quilt and kept staring at the blankets. Her cheeks were burning with shame and indignation, and she did not dare to look at the movie Houmu that was playing on the screen.

"Xiao Shi, please stop turning your back to the screen and saying such tough things."

"Hey, sir, whose side are you on? I even stood up for you and fought the Herrscher of Domination for three hundred rounds before. I just didn't dare to watch. It's just that the movie you and Bronya made is completely not to my taste."

However, the great Herrscher of Knowledge seemed to tremble slightly from the high-energy moment just now. After all, the old antique was watching the screen intently, and she couldn't be weaker than the old antique, could she?

at the same time--

Miss Hei hope glanced at Xia Yuan behind her with great surprise. This bad guy actually stood up for her this time.

Seeing that the other person had noticed her, Miss Kuroki, who was wrapped tightly in her blanket, quickly lowered her head. "You bad guy... no, don't think that just because you said something nice for me, I'll forgive you... be prepared when night falls!"

"Huh?!"

Seele, who was standing next to her, suddenly shuddered.

As night deepened and she gained clarity, Seele's cheeks gradually flushed as she made connections. The multitude of words she wanted to confide in her other self ultimately culminated in the single sentence, "Take good care of yourself..."

Seele patted her other self on the back, but the Black Seele, realizing what was happening, quickly explained, "Listen to me, Seele...it's not what you think. I just wanted to drag that bad guy to see a horror movie late at night!"

Bishop Theresa, to Fu Hua's right, listened to the farce unfolding beside her with a helpless expression.

She casually tossed a few bitter melon-flavored popcorn into her mouth. She actually thought the movie "Houmu" that Bronya and that guy made was pretty good. It was just a shame to give away the bitter melon juice that she herself cherished so much that she couldn't bear to drink it.

I should have used something else instead...

While Theresa was pondering, the Azure Book, who was next to Fu Hua, reached into the pile of green popcorn when she wasn't looking.

"Hehe, this looks delicious, then I won't be polite~"

Just as she was about to grab a handful of popcorn with her nimble little hands, Theresa noticed the water droplets constantly overflowing from the Book of Azure's mouth and its incredibly longing eyes. It was rare to find someone who liked the same flavor of popcorn as her.

In high spirits, Theresa picked up a handful of food and handed it to the Book of Azure Profoundness. One can only imagine what would happen to this gluttonous little rascal.

As expected, Cang Xuanzhi looked uncomfortable as she stuffed a mouthful of popcorn into her mouth. Perhaps the explosive bitterness that filled her mouth choked her, and she pressed her hands tightly against her neck with an expression of utter despair.

As his body turned grayish-white, he slumped heavily into his seat.

"Hey, are you alright? Fu Hua, come quick, it looks like you choked on popcorn in your Book of Azure Mystery!"

Bishop Theresa, standing beside him, shook him helplessly. It was just a few popcorns, surely it shouldn't be this serious? This shouldn't be considered murder, right? But Fu Hua, wearing red sunglasses, seemed completely absorbed in the movie on the screen.

"Dear Bishop, it seems you've encountered a minor problem. Would you like Mr. Houmu to help you resolve it?"

I don't know when—

[Mr. Houmu] appeared behind Theresa's seat at some point, but its tone sounded somewhat sharp and unnatural.

However, Theresa, whose whole heart was focused on the Book of Azure Profoundness, did not notice the other party's abnormality. She simply instinctively thought that Xia Yuan had teased Seele and then came over to tease her.

"You're still making jokes and sarcastic remarks on the sidelines!"

"But you've come at the right time. Quickly take Xiao Xuan to Dr. Ai Yin and Dr. Tesla so they can help diagnose her. Remember to be quick, or if you're any later... I'm afraid Xiao Xuan might not be able to hold on."

Watching the Book of Azure choke and nearly lose its soul, Mr. Houmu behind the seat blinked and gave a meaningful look. “Dear Bishop, please rest assured and leave it to me. I guarantee I will handle it properly.”

Mmm—Mmm—

【Mr. Houmu】carrying Xiao Xuan in his arms, he quickly walked out of the ship's screening room, and Bishop Theresa's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally relaxed after watching him leave.

Lazily leaning back in her seat, sipping bitter melon-flavored popcorn that only she found delicious, and watching the horror movie "Houmu Horror Night" playing on the screen, Theresa was unaware that... Xia Yuan, who had removed his Houmu mask, was staying by Seele and Miss Black Seele's side the whole time and had never left the screening room.

As the movie ended on the screen, the screening room gradually quieted down.

One by one, the group left the screening room, while one of the women, who wished to remain anonymous, was rolling around on the floor in a tumbling motion.

Chapter 529 is old enough to be used for chanting wooden fish!

There was nothing she could do; she simply couldn't get the old man in the seat to move no matter what she did.

Just like the little antique said, she's not only a blockhead but also a block of wood. She's been shaken for ages and still won't wake up... You could practically knock a wooden fish on her head. She was invited to watch a movie, not to sit in her seat and rest.

As the tumbling little boy was the last to leave the screening room, the screen went out, making the surroundings very dark.

Fu Hua's red sunglasses accidentally fell off at this moment, revealing her with her eyes closed. It seemed that she had been meditating in her seat ever since Mr. Houmu appeared, as if she was afraid that if she continued watching, she might not be able to resist punching the screen.

"Hmm? Xiao Xuan and Xiao Shi have already left?"

Looking around, she found herself alone in the empty screening room. It seemed she had been meditating for too long. She should go find them.

Fu Hua rose from her seat and slowly walked out of the screening room.

"Strange, are the smart voice-activated lights in the passageway broken?" Looking at the dark ship passageway and the flickering lights, and recalling the [Houmu Horror Night] she had just watched and the problem with the Herrscher of Domination, Fu Hua had a vague sense of unease deep in her heart.

She had been meditating in her seat for so long that she began to worry about the safety of the Cangxuan Book and Xiaoshi.
