Star Railway: The Last of the Grammer Riders

Chapter 156 The Memory Fool Company Self-Destruction

(This chapter will offer a glimpse into the current power struggles within Pinocchio from the perspectives of other individuals.)
Fireworks perspective…

Hanabi, a playful person, learned a piece of information from her retired, cheap boss: "A fool's racking brains is not as effective as a quick wit."

Although I don't understand the meaning of this sentence, since we're looking for someone who remembers...

The only one left to remember here is that black swan.

So Hanabi followed the Black Swan the whole way, trying to see what amusing things it had up its sleeve.

It's a pity that it was eventually discovered.

"Spying on others like this isn't the style of a Masked Fool, is it?" Black Swan said to Hanabi, who was spying on her from a short distance behind her.

"Oh dear, we've been discovered!" Hanabi wasn't surprised to hear Black Swan say this; instead, she said it as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

"Tell me, Fool, what is your purpose in following me? Is it for amusement? Or did your resurrected messenger order you to do it?" the Black Swan asked.

"Who can give us instructions? Even if it's the envoy, that cheap boss doesn't have the power to give us instructions. I'm just following you here for some fun. What? You want to travel with me?" Hanabi retorted.

“Unfortunately, fool. I already have a partner I love. So please don’t try anything with me, okay?” the Black Swan replied.

"Oh my, you, the Memory Master, actually have a companion? I really didn't expect that~" Hanabi probably knew what this was all about. "Let me guess, who did you choose as your 'companion'? The nameless pioneer? Hehe, that's impossible, there are too many pioneers now, you'd just be throwing your face at someone who doesn't want you. That peacock in the company? That's even more impossible, after all, he's traveling with a 'doctor' now~ So... it's that 'Sea Patrol Knight'? Hehe... Well then, Lady Hanabi, I wish you... a good time with her."

Then Hanabi left on her own.

She and Silver Wolf were friends she met in the game and naturally talked about the "script," and she also knew about the power struggles within Pinocchio.

However, the version she knew was the initial version, the one Ye Tianyu hadn't modified.

So at most, you can only watch it for amusement.

Even though it's entertaining to watch, there's still a lot of information in it.

For example... that 'Sea Patrol Knight' is a self-destructive entity of nothingness.

Thinking of this, Hanabi couldn't help but smile.

The one who remembers wants to peek into the memories of the self-destructing…

Isn't this just like wanting to meet that Black General?
There will definitely be some big fun after this, and that person who remembers will be thoroughly messed up!
So she concealed her presence.

Continue spying on black swans.

Just then, Sangbo walked over and became curious when he saw Hanabi peeking with her butt sticking out.

I went over to see what was going on.
“Hey, what are you doing, lady? Why are you sticking your butt out here?” Sangbo asked.

"Oh! It's a Corgi. Be quiet, I'm watching something funny!" Hanabi pulled out a slice of watermelon from somewhere and started eating it.

"Corgi... never mind. What kind of fun is it that interests you so much, big sister? Can you tell old Sambo about it?" Sambo was quite helpless when he heard Corgi's words. Ever since that gray-haired guy from the Starry Sky Train gave him that nickname, almost all the Fools in the tavern called him that.

"It's nothing serious. I heard a saying: 'A fool's racking brains is no match for a quick wit.' I want to see how much truth there is in that saying!" Hanabi said, continuing to munch on her melon.

"Huh? Who said that? I've never heard of it before," Sangbo said, scratching his head in confusion.

"I just heard that from our old, long-dead boss," Hanabi said.

"Uh... Ah? You mean that person really didn't die?!" Sambo said, remembering someone after hearing Hanabi's words.

"Yes, he's not dead. He even took on a disciple, uh... that little gray-haired nameless guy. He's on the train too. He's currently in Pinocchio. Want to see him?"

"Hiss... No wonder that guy called me Corgi the moment he saw me... So I have his teachings... That makes sense... But I think I'll pass on seeing him. His presence here means something big is definitely happening." Sambo scratched his head and said.

"So you're spying on the Memory Maker?" Sambo asked, sticking his butt out and looking at the black swan, who seemed to be looking for something.

"Yeah, but I'm not going to tell you what the fun is for now. You'll see when you get there," Hanabi said, continuing to eat her watermelon.

"Sigh... how did you become like the Riddler too?" Sambo said helplessly.

"There's no way around it, this kind of fun isn't surprising if you tell the story," Hanabi replied. The other colleagues also saw the two of them peeking with their butts sticking out, and like Sambo, they went up to ask them what was going on and then all stuck their butts out to look.

Then I saw a black swan and a little girl talking.

I could vaguely hear something like, "invitation to become a partner" or something like that.

This led many fools to despise those who remember.

The person who remembers is actually a pedophile?! This must be filmed and spread everywhere!
Then the little girl nodded in response, and the two held hands.

Then they saw the little girl grow up and become a mature woman.

She danced with the black swan, and then the black swan seemed interested in her and wanted to see her memories.

Then, as he continued jumping, his face gradually showed fear, and his steps became increasingly tense and flustered, as if he had witnessed something terrifying.

Only after the music ended did the black swan finally breathe a sigh of relief and collapse to the ground.

The fools laughed at this scene, laughing at how illusory the recollector was.

Then Hanabi explained why this happened.

Then they laughed even louder.

Even the corgi couldn't help but laugh; he truly hadn't expected this person to actually dare.

After all, the Memory Maker actually wanted to peek into the Self-Destroyer's memories. What's the difference between that and wanting to see the Black Commander?
Haki goose, really! It did something we couldn't do!
I, the fool, wish to call you the new Messenger of Joy!
Aha, who was also spying, chuckled a few times and, like the Black Swan, went to check on the Black General.

"Hahahaha, I see that Black General is alright! I'm even more awesome! Hahahaha!" Aha laughed.

Then Aha got beaten up and turned into 2D Aha because his laughter insulted someone's ears.

Although Aha's laughter stopped, his expression clearly showed that he was laughing even louder.

They intended to continue watching, but the Fools seemed to sense that someone was spying on and following them.

With their fiery tempers, how could they possibly allow anyone to follow them?

So they just threw the fireworks over.

Let her deal with that peacock.

Hanabi got up resentfully, deciding that she would give them a big surprise later!
"Oh my~ Isn't this the company's peacock? What's up? What brings you here to see Lady Hanabi?" Hanabi said with a grin.

“I came to you to be your friend, of course,” Sand Gold said.

"Hey, you peacock of the company, you'd better give up on that idea. Trying to take advantage of us Fools isn't that simple. Be careful, you'll get yourself into trouble!" Hanabi kindly warned. "However, Lady Hanabi suggests you find a mute to befriend. That way, he won't refuse your request. You know, with company people here, you won't get a pleasant look."

Sand Gold could detect a hint of sarcasm in Fireworks' words, but Sand Gold didn't find anything wrong with them.

After all, the company has a good reputation.

On the surface, they are on friendly terms, but if they were to fight, the other party would definitely not hold back.

There are also the patrolmen, most of whom are hostile to the company.

Of course, the main reason is hostility towards Oswaldo.

And Pinocone, where they work, is also very unfriendly to its employees.

Basically, as long as you show even the slightest flaw or opportunity, you will be relentlessly attacked by your opponent.

"To be friends with a 'mute'... Thank you, I will remember it," Sand Gold said after thinking for a moment.

"I don't know what you're up to, but... I hope you have a good time in this dream world!" Hanabi said and left on her own.

"Sigh... Pinocchio is a real mixed bag these days... The task Diamond gave us is probably much harder than expected," Sand Gold said helplessly. "Let's try to cooperate with the Memoirists of the Flowing Light Memory Court first... If not... we'll have to ask those Nameless Guests for help. I don't want to incur their wrath because of scheming against them..."
