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

However, at that moment, Walter noticed something and immediately said in a deep voice.

"Isn't the key information...why did that Masked Fool know where Miss Bluebird's house is?"

March 7th suddenly realized, "Indeed, Miss Qingque seems to have fainted on her way to Changletian, but why did that Masked Fool know the location of Miss Qingque's house? Could it be... that someone she knows committed the crime?"

Upon hearing this, Qingque felt a chill run down her spine. "Mr. Walter, Miss March 7th, please don't scare me. I have a very small social circle. I usually only hang out with some card-playing friends, but they don't even know where I live!"

"Qingque's home is no secret; you could probably find out by asking around in the area. However, Qingque enjoys playing cards and has met many card-playing people from all over the universe. If this Masked Fool is Qingque's card-playing friend and has a good impression of her, then there is indeed no need to take her life."

Fu Xuan's words opened up many people's minds, and Xing also agreed.

"As the saying goes, gold is easy to come by, but a true friend is hard to find. The Imperial Jade Palace is a fairly well-known form of entertainment, so it's possible that the Masked Fool likes playing cards. Why don't we check the list of regular customers at the card parlors that Qingque frequents, and then exclude the Immortal Ship people? Maybe the Masked Fool is among them!"

"No, things are getting weirder and weirder. Why would they go to a card room to catch criminals? Mr. Danheng, you and I have both been impersonated. You must also think their idea is absurd, right?"

Qingque complained helplessly, after all, they had already started searching through their own network of relationships.

Dan Heng pondered for a moment, "In short, the Masked Fool didn't know me. My awakening of my past life's power was purely accidental, and he was impersonating Dan Feng. However, judging from Miss Qing Que, I think this idea has been investigated to some extent."

After all, once they were dressed as you, they could have easily dumped you in some remote alley and let you wake up naturally, or simply eliminated you to prevent future problems. But they didn't. According to you, your mother only found you lying outside after hearing a knock on the door, right?

Although Qingque was reluctant to admit it, she nodded.

"That's about it. In a sense, these masked fools are genuinely concerned about your safety because they have no reason to do something meaningless to them. This behavior is enough to conclude, Miss Qingque, that you might actually know them. Starting with the card shop is indeed the most likely direction."

After all, the fact that Qingque was sent home confirms one thing: the Masked Fool genuinely felt admiration or concern for Qingque.

At least they won't be strangers.

Once they realized this, they immediately had Qingque lead the way to investigate the card rooms she frequented. Qingque was completely dumbfounded.

What kind of cosmic joke is this?! They actually believed such absurd and nonsensical reasoning!

Chapter 33 The Weary Bluebird

"Hahahaha, I can't take it anymore, I'm dying of laughter, hahahaha!"

Qingque reluctantly followed the team to the card parlor where she usually played cards. Just then, "Mom" happened to ask her about her work situation, and she told her about their trip to the card parlor to arrest someone.

Immediately afterwards, Hanabi burst into laughter, lying on her back and waving her arms and legs. From Qinglan's perspective, this guy was laughing so hard he was having an epileptic seizure.

"Hanabi, what's so funny? You're laughing like that, you've completely lost your composure."

Hanabi wiped away the tears of laughter, then handed her phone to Aoran. "Look, look! That team that's supposed to catch us has gone to the card room to arrest people! Hahaha, it's absolutely hilarious!"

Qinglan looked at Qingque's helpless complaint, her brows suddenly relaxed, and then she smiled faintly.

"They're really funny, they actually suspect that the Masked Fool is Little Sparrow's card-playing partner. But they're right about one thing: I do care quite a bit about Little Sparrow."

"Ha, come on, what kind of brother cares about his sister but knocks her out and takes her away to take her place? Now he's even pretending to be her father. If I had a brother like that, I would have kicked him out of his sight long ago."

Immediately afterwards, Hanabi spoke words of encouragement to Aozaki in a motherly tone, though the smile on her face never faded.

"Perhaps watching their searches over these three months won't be so bad. It seems I'll have to rely on them to keep me entertained for the next three months."

Hanabi lay lazily on the bed, chatting with Aojaku with a big smile, learning more about the fun.

Meanwhile, the train crew and the people from the Taipusi had already visited all the card rooms that Qingque frequented, and then asked the owners for a list of regular customers.

Looking at the densely packed names of his card-playing friends, Fu Xuan handed the list to Qing Que. "Qing Que, you should be familiar with all of these people. You need to bring up all the non-Immortal Ship people, and then we'll eliminate them one by one. I don't believe we can't catch them."

Looking at the list of these guys gave Qingque a headache. "Grand...Grand Diviner, don't you think we're going in the wrong direction? Actually, I feel the probability of the Masked Fool among my card-playing friends is extremely small, so let's..."

"The probability is low, but that doesn't mean it's impossible. We can't let any clue slip by now. So, Qingque, thank you for your hard work."

As he spoke, Fu Xuan patted Qing Que on the shoulder. Qing Que was on the verge of tears and could only start sorting out the list of these people. Then the train crew began to investigate the people that Qing Que had sorted out.

And this went on for five days. Qingque wrote down all the non-Xianzhou people in the card room, but none of them were the Masked Fool.

She now only gets an average of four hours of sleep a day. As the head of the Taibu Si Xiaoyao Sect, when has she ever been so overworked? She's so exhausted she feels like she's going to vomit blood.

"My lord, there really aren't any more. I've searched all my... card-playing friends, and there's absolutely no one who matches my identity. I feel... I can't hold on much longer..."

Seeing Qingque's exhausted appearance, Fu Xuan sighed, "I'm sorry, Qingque, I was going in the wrong direction. Everyone has worked hard searching for the past five days. You should all rest tomorrow! Qingque, you should go home and rest too!"

Upon hearing this, Qingque burst into tears and ran home without looking back. Meanwhile, the train crew members had visited many places and learned that they had done a lot of useless work in the past five days. It would be a lie to say that they were not disappointed.

"Miss Qingque has really had a tough time these past few days. Searching through so many names on the card room's list must have been a real hassle. But she's really amazing, having played cards with so many people! In a way, this job has made up for all the leisure she used to enjoy while slacking off. Sigh!"

On March 7th, he reluctantly went through the list and information of these card players, hoping to find some clues. Unfortunately, their usual habits and their way of dealing with people were completely different from the Masked Fool.

As a result, the idea of ​​finding the Masked Fool in the card room was completely abandoned, and Xing said helplessly.

"Why can't we use the Listening Device to search? After all, we found Kafka using it."

"That's because Di Ting needs to smell the personal belongings of the person he's tracking to track them by scent. But this Masked Fool didn't leave anything behind, making it almost impossible for Di Ting to search."

Fu Xuanyi had long wanted to use this search artifact to find her, because Kafka deliberately allowed herself to be captured by the train crew, so she would intentionally leave her traces along the way so that Di Ting could detect her.

But these two masked fools wouldn't do that. They wished the whole world couldn't find them, so they left nothing behind. How could Di Ting possibly find them?

March 7th was a little disappointed; she had thought she had come up with a great idea! Xing comforted her with a smile.

"We have three months, there's no rush. Let's take a break on March 7th!"

March 7th yawned and rubbed his sleepy eyes. "Indeed, we've had too much work these past few days. We'll take a break tomorrow. Sigh! Those two Masked Fools were practically showing up every day a while ago, but now they've vanished without a trace. I'm starting to wonder if they're even on the Immortal Ship anymore."

"They must have been scared away after hearing that I'm the Galaxy Baseball Man!"

Xing said with a proud look, while March 7 gave an awkward but polite smile.

"Heh...hehe...didn't you change your weapon to a flame gun? Why are you still playing Galaxy Baseball Man?"

"Then...then I'm the Galaxy Gunslinger!"

Seeing Xing act like a carefree child, giving herself yet another nickname that she thought was cool, March 7th couldn't help but sigh.

"You're taking a day off tomorrow, what are you planning to do?"

"There's nothing I want to do. Speaking of which, because of the Masked Fool incident, the funerals of many Cloud Cavalry soldiers killed by the Medicine King's Secret Technique have been postponed. Even Miss Tingyun... we don't know if she's alive or dead. Little March, I'm so sad."

As she spoke, Xing threw herself into March 7's arms, and March 7 was at a loss for words when she saw Xing's emotional outburst.

"What's wrong? What's making you sad?"

"My fox lady is an imposter, her sweet calling me 'benefactor' is fake too, fake, all fake! Ahhh! I'm so sad! This world is all fake, I want to destroy it!"

"Don't just talk about destroying the world all the time!"

March 7th tapped Xing on the head. "Alright! Since you're so upset, I'll spend the whole day shopping and having fun with you tomorrow! Although Luofu is under lockdown, all the entertainment facilities inside are still operating normally. With me with you, don't even think about that wicked woman, Huanlong. The Tingyun we met at the beginning was Huanlong; the real Tingyun probably doesn't even recognize us."

"Ugh! March, are you trying to comfort me? You're making me even sadder!"

"Then let's go to the Sky Ship Bureau tomorrow! Miss Yu Kong might know more about the real Miss Ting Yun."

"Alright, that's the only way."

Chapter 34 Methods

"Mom, I've missed you so much these past few days!"

The first thing Qingque did after returning home was to snuggle in her mother's arms. She had been so tired these past few days that she felt like she had made up for all the fishing she had missed in the past few years.

She wants to snuggle in her mother's arms and relax, oh, the long-missed embrace! Tomorrow she's going to stay glued to her bed at home and never go out again.

Hanabi was secretly laughing to herself. In the past few days, Aoko and the train crew had provided her with a lot of fun, making her laugh from morning till night.

Then, she gently stroked Qingque's head, as if she were petting a small pet.

"Alright, alright, Little Bluebird, the food is ready. You've worked hard these past few days, wash your hands and come eat!"

"Good~"

After washing her hands, Qingque immediately sat down at the table and began to eat heartily. She had been exhausted for several days and wanted to enjoy her holiday today and tomorrow.

"My dear daughter, how's your investigation going?"

Qinglan casually brought up the matter as if she didn't care, but Qingque was full of resentment and kept complaining to her parents.

"Mom and Dad, you have no idea how hard I've been these past few days!"

No, we know.

Hanabi suppressed a laugh and asked knowingly, "What have you all been doing?"

"The Grand Diviner asked me to find all the card-playing friends I used to play with. Just organizing their information and lists has given me a headache. I haven't had a good night's sleep in days. We've been organizing and searching for days, only to find that it's all been a waste of time."

After saying that, Qingque shoveled a few more mouthfuls of rice into her mouth and then continued.

"Fortunately, the old lady Tai Bu had a change of heart and gave us a day off, otherwise I really felt like I would have died from exhaustion during this search mission. Mom and Dad, please don't wake me up tomorrow, I want to get a good night's sleep."

"Alright, alright, my darling daughter, you can sleep as long as you want, we won't wake you!"

"Hehe, Mom and Dad are the best. I can only truly relax when I'm at home."

Hanabi gently rubbed Aoyagi's little head with a smile. Perhaps it was because Aoyagi was so small and cute, and Hanabi, now an adult woman, felt a strong urge to pet her, like looking at a cute kitten.

"I've prepared your bathwater. You can take a nice, relaxing bath and then have a good night's sleep. My dear baby, you've worked so hard."

"Yes, Mom, you're so good!"

Seeing that Little Bluebird had been trained to be inseparable from him, Hanabi's playful nature was activated once again.

"Does Little Bluebird need to bathe with Mommy? We can scrub each other's backs together!"
