Starry Sky Railway: Start with some fireworks and have some fun

"Honey, in front of the child, give me some face."

"But the child doesn't believe it! I have no choice but to tell her the truth, dear husband!"

Hanabi squinted as she stomped on Qinglan's feet, while Qinglan stared wide-eyed, forced to let out moans of pleasure.

After stomping on Qinglan countless times, Hanabi hugged her with a pained expression.

"Honey, I'm sorry, we went a little too far this time, but Little Bluebird seems to believe us! So, Little Bluebird, we're not arguing, it's just a little playful thing between us. After we finish these things, we usually do something inappropriate for children, but since you came back so suddenly today, we won't do anything further. But you have to believe me, Mommy and Daddy still love each other!"

At this moment, Qingque was completely numb. Her mother was a sadist and her father was a masochist. She was truly grateful that they gave birth to her as a normal person!

So there's a reason why my brother and I are family!

Chapter 31 Qingque Joins the Squad

"This isn't true, this isn't true!"

At this moment, Qingque had completely forgotten what Fu Xuan had told her. All she could think about was her current messy family situation.

She felt a pang of regret whenever she thought about how her older brother used to scare her with insects, mice, and all sorts of things when they were little, and how he was permanently expelled from the Immortal Ship for disrupting social order due to his psychological abnormalities.

So that's where it all started! It must be a hereditary disease, with its effects multiplying exponentially in the brother, while she just happened to become a normal person due to a gene mutation.

But no, she still couldn't accept the fact that one of her parents was a sadist and the other a masochist.

Seeing Qingque curled up in bed, covering her head with the blanket and refusing to come out, Qinglan quickly got into bed and pulled her shoulders.

"Alright, Qingque, don't think about these things anymore. This is just a bit of romance between your mother and me. Besides, we've been through so much together all these years, so don't take it to heart."

Qingque looked at him with a resentful expression, "Dad, tell me, is my brother similar to you? Could there really be some kind of hereditary disease in our family? By the way, maybe my slacking off every day is related to this. Should I go to the Pill Refining Department to have the Dragon Maiden check it out?"

Qingque became more and more convinced that her idea was correct, while Qinglan looked exasperated. "Don't worry, you'll be fine. As for your brother... he... he... he just has a psychological problem."

Qingque lowered her head and remained silent for a moment.

"Dad, do you think my brother is still alive?"

Goodness, you're such a good sister! Did you really think I died out there?

"Your brother used to be a member of the Cloud Cavalry. Although he was stripped of his rank, he's still quite capable. He's someone who wouldn't be at a disadvantage anywhere. He's definitely still alive. What, do you miss your brother?"

Qingque was silent for a while. "I dreamed about him a few days ago. My brother was expelled from the Immortal Ship when I had just come of age. I haven't seen him for more than 20 years now. To be honest, I do miss him a little."

Hearing this, Qinglan patted Qingque's head with relief, "Alright, stop thinking about that kid. He brought this on himself. Just focus on doing your best."

"Yes! Little Bluebird, the most important thing is to stay healthy. Don't think about your brother anymore. He was expelled because he brought it on himself. He didn't do his job as a proper Cloud Cavalryman. Instead, he had to act like a detective and catch his brother cheating. There really are people like that in the world. There should be limits to helping others! Here, have some fruit."

At this moment, Hanabi walked in carrying a plate of washed apples, reverting to her usual virtuous wife and loving mother demeanor. Upon seeing this, Aoko instinctively hid behind Aoran.

"Little Bluebird?"

"Mom, Mom, are you sure you really won't hit me? I felt like you were enjoying hitting Dad just now. I'm worried that if I find out this secret, you'll also abuse me for your own amusement."

Seeing Qingque avoiding her like a mouse hiding from a cat, Hanabi shook her head with a smile.

"Don't worry, you're Mommy's precious daughter, how could I bear to hit you? Even if you do something to upset me, I'll just beat up your dad, he enjoys it anyway!"

Qinglan looked at her helplessly. No, that's enough. This girl is really getting too cocky.

"Ahem, by the way, Little Bluebird, why did you suddenly come home? What does the Grand Diviner want to do?"

"Oh right, I almost forgot about the important matter. The Grand Diviner said that a small team should be set up to capture the Masked Fool, and I am one of the members. It might be a bit dangerous, so I came back to discuss it with you."

Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a glance and then spoke.

Who are the members of this small team?

"Ah! With Lord Taibu leading the team, and then our friends from the Star Train, March 7th, Xing, Danheng, and Mr. Walter, they are all very strong."

"Then why did Lord Fu Xuan let you join this team?!"

At this point, Qingque smiled awkwardly, "Actually, Lord Fu Xuan thought that the Masked Fool was impersonating me, perhaps because I have some special qualities that attract them. In any case, I was still slacking off in the past, and how long it will take to catch him is not something we can solve."

Qinglan frowned after hearing this. "I've heard about it. Those two masked fools are indeed very dangerous. If we can catch them, that's fine. But if we can never catch them, won't you have to stay in that small team forever?"

"Ah! There's no need to worry about that. The Grand Diviner said that, given Luofu's economic situation, it seems that the crisis will end in about three months at most. That's why she's in such a hurry to capture those two guys. If the Luofu Immortal Ship is sealed off again after three months, it will probably fall into chaos again."

After Qingque said this, Hanabi and Qinglan looked at each other, and then Hanabi gently rubbed Qingque's head.

"Little Bluebird, this is your decision. You're all grown up now. Your father and I are worried about you, but we can't restrict your life and decisions. Whether you join this team or not is up to you."

Qingque paused for a moment, clearly still struggling with her inner turmoil. Then, her eyes sharpened.

"Dad, Mom, I want to join this team!"

"Have you decided?"

"It's decided!"

"Can you tell Dad why?"

Qingque looked somewhat embarrassed. "After all, it was the Grand Diviner who personally invited me, and I heard that after I was replaced by the Masked Fool, the Grand Diviner was genuinely worried about me. At least, I want to share her burdens."

Qinglan gently patted Qingque's head with a look of affection in her eyes.

“Good child, whatever you choose, your father and mother will always support you. By the way, remember to keep in touch with us while you are out. We don’t ask you to catch those two thieves, we just ask that you come back safely.”

At this point, Qingque rushed into Qinglan and Huahuo's arms and hugged them tightly.

"Mom and Dad, don't worry about me. Although you are both a bit abnormal to some extent, I still love you very much."

"Um, Little Bluebird, you don't need to say the last sentence."

"Hehe, goodbye Mom and Dad, I'm going to meet up with the Grand Diviner now."

Watching Qingque run off, Qinglan couldn't help but sigh.

"This little girl is indeed a bit different from before."

"You're even sighing now? This little girl's team is here to catch the two of us. Hehehe, I'm growing to like your sister more and more. She probably doesn't know that the two people she's embracing are the criminals that Xianzhou has been trying to bring to justice! But Xianzhou really takes us seriously! They even specially organized a small team to catch us."

Qinglan gently shook her head, then took out an exquisite wooden box.

"Their main motive for arresting us was minor; it was this thing!"

"Jianmu?"

"As you can see, this thing can grant anyone immortality, but it will cause great damage to the ecosystem. However, it is an invaluable treasure for the people of Fengrao. Once this thing leaves the Immortal Ship, the consequences will be unimaginable. It seems that it will be quite difficult to take this thing out, otherwise the Immortal Ship will not let it go so easily."

Chapter 32 This Masked Fool may know the Blue Sparrow.

"Three months? It seems that Xianzhou has really gone to great lengths to capture us."

Hua Huo smiled gently. She was in a very good mood after learning from Qing Que that the Immortal Ship would be fully open in three months.

Looking at the abundant Jianmu in Qinglan's hand, he said with a wicked smile.

"Now that the feast is over, this thing is useless, right? Why are you still keeping it?"

"Of course I have a use for it, consider this as... compensation!"

Hanabi scratched her head, not understanding what this guy meant, but she didn't care about that anymore. She immediately picked up her phone to send a message to Aoko, just to tell her to be careful.

Her expression grew increasingly excited, and Qinglan seemed to have already guessed what she was going to do.

"You're not thinking of using Qingque to retrieve all the information about this squad, are you?!"

"Of course, after all, our precious daughter has infiltrated the enemy ranks and is highly valued by their leaders. It would be a shame not to let her send out some messages."

"Hehe, whatever makes you happy. But I'm a little suspicious about how they're going to find us."

"Who knows? Hopefully, this team will meet my expectations! Otherwise... I'll really get bored!"

.........

At this time, the Grand Master of Ceremonies...

It was already dark, and Qingque had decided to join the team, so as soon as she arrived at Taibu Si, Fu Xuan led her to a special room.

Fu Xuan and the train crew members were all present. After the last person arrived, Fu Xuan spoke calmly.

"Gentlemen, thanks to the Cloud Cavalry's tireless investigations these past few days, all the tourists checked so far have been found to be innocent. However, this investigation does not include stowaways, such as Star Core Hunters who use special methods to enter the Immortal Ship. If the Masked Fool also infiltrated the Immortal Ship using such special methods, then our progress will be greatly accelerated."

Immediately afterwards, Fu Xuan recorded all the information he knew about the two Masked Fools.

"You have all been inspected by my Dome Observation Array, so I have complete confidence in you. What I know about these two Masked Fools is that one of them initially impersonated Kafka to disrupt the investigation, then transformed into myself, and finally into Qingque. However, one comforting thing is that they did not take Qingque's life. At least during this period, they treated the matter with a mischievous attitude."

"Afterwards, they infiltrated the Scaled Abyss Realm, transformed into the appearance of the Dragon Lord, and stole the Abundant Jianmu. Everyone knows about the riots they caused using the Abundant Jianmu. These are the sins they committed on the Immortal Ship."

Fu Xuan briefly described the actions of the two masked fools, but Qing Que immediately raised her hand and said...

"Master, there are so many people to search. How long would it take if we searched them one by one? Why can't we use the Qiong Guan Array to make a prediction?"

"It's like looking for a needle in a haystack. Moreover, those two seem to have the ability to interfere with my divination. Even if I try to divine, I can't figure anything out. So I plan to... start with Qingque."

Qingque: ? ? ? !!!

"I?"

"That's right. Those two Masked Fools instigated a riot that killed so many people. You could say they're shameless hooligans who have no bottom line and are indifferent to the lives of ordinary people. But they treated you differently. Not only did they let you sleep peacefully, but they even thoughtfully took you home. That alone is already out of character for Masked Fools. To them, you are very likely someone special."

Qingque said in disbelief, "But, but Lord Taibu, I'm just an ordinary fortune teller! In their eyes, I'm not anything special, am I? Besides, my social circle is so small."

"Actually, this is also what I can't understand. Why do they show you so much concern?"
