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

I hope you won't disappoint me!

Chapter 13 The Trouble with the Immortal Boat

"To actually attack one's own comrade, that's really too much! Even I would be hurt inside."

The first thing Qinglan did after waking up was to furiously condemn Hanabi for knocking her unconscious and spying on her past. However, Hanabi was not condemned at all, but instead asked Qinglan with great curiosity about the rest of her story.

"Hey, what happened next! What did you do with that young master of the Charles family? From a warrior who slays the monstrous creatures of abundance to a pervert who tortures and kills children, your life has certainly been full of ups and downs!"

After learning about Qinglan's past, Hanabi became increasingly curious about his experiences.

Qinglan smiled calmly, "That guy can't be described as a child! Although killing him was partly out of my own interest, he killed a total of seventy-three children over those years, a crime that deserves him to die seventy-three times. So, to make him atone for his sins, I cut him into seventy-three pieces and switched his flesh with the pork in their kitchen. Then, after the family finished their meal, I told them the truth."

Hanabi:…………

“Darling, it seems I still don’t understand you enough! Speaking of which, don’t you like to see pain and wailing? I thought you would like to hear the cries of parents who have lost their children!”

Qinglan immediately turned around, a sinister smile on her face. "Of course I like it! But what I heard at the time was the Charles family crying. They learned that their son had been dismembered and even cooked into a dish by the kitchen and eaten by them. You don't know, their wails were simply the most beautiful music in the world... Oh! Thinking about it now, I feel really good!"

Then, Qinglan slowly stood up and gently touched Hanabi's nose. "And you seem to have some misunderstanding about me. The kind of tragedy I like is full of drama and contrast. The parents who were killed by Charles were already poor, and then they lost their children. I don't like this kind of tragedy that has no reversal or drama, and I find it hard to derive joy from it."

"Human greed, desires, ethics, and glamorous things are destroyed before my eyes. Only then do I find value in what I pursue. This is a very normal psychology. If a piece of white paper is already dirty, no matter how much you dirty it, you will not feel any satisfaction. At least, I personally think that I am still a pervert with a bottom line."

Hanabi shook her head upon hearing this. A pervert with a bottom line? This was probably the most amusing joke she had ever heard. Dividing a person into seventy-three parts—how could he even think of that?

"So, when are you going to start your operation? I'm still looking forward to the [Feast of Pleasure] you'll bring me! But if you really succeed, you'll never be able to return to your Immortal Ship again."

Immediately afterwards, Hanabi slowly walked to Qinglan's side, extended a finger, and traced it from Qinglan's chest down to his navel.

"Your personality is really similar to mine! We're both flawed people, and maybe that's why I'm here to keep you company and go crazy!"

Qinglan couldn't help but stroke Hanabi's cheek, and Hanabi, unusually, didn't flinch. Qinglan felt Hanabi's smooth skin and said softly.

"Fireworks, to be honest, you are really beautiful."

"Hehehe, of course I know, are you praising me?"

"I guess so! I just feel that you are so beautiful that you don't seem human. I had an impulse from the first time I saw you."

Hanabi couldn't help but take a few steps back. Nothing good ever came from this guy's impulsiveness, but out of curiosity, she still asked him why.

"What impulse?"

"The urge to make you cry, like my sister does, sounds really great. Hanabi, I've never begged anyone in my life, can you cry in front of me just once? The more heartbroken you are, the better, please."

Hanabi:…………

Meanwhile, at the Shence Prefecture.

A tall, imposing man with a slightly lazy look in his eyes was reviewing official documents, and then the train crew members came over.

“General Jingyuan, the Star Core Hunter Kafka has been captured. We are preparing to go to Taipusi to inquire about the Star Core Hunter’s purpose. There is something I would like to ask you.”

Xing was the first to raise this question. Ever since he arrived at the Immortal Ship, he had been running around everywhere. Now that he had finally met the General, he had to get to the bottom of it.

"Kafka has already been taken to the Taibusi by Fu Qing. With the Qiong Guan Zhen in place, all of the Star Core Hunters' objectives will be known. Since our fellow train crew members want to know, what is it that you wish to know?"

Xing seemed hesitant, but when she looked at Jing Yuan, she suddenly made up her mind.

"What will the Immortal Boat do to Kafka? How will she be treated?"

Jing Yuan raised an eyebrow. "If the Star Core Hunter really caused the Star Core Chaos, then the Immortal Ship will not let her go. However, before she is convicted, the Immortal Ship will not deliberately mistreat her. By the way, are you asking this question because you are worried about her?"

"No, no, I was just... asking casually."

Xing's cheeks flushed slightly. She always had an inexplicable feeling about Kafka. Now that she had finally met the general, she came to ask him about it.

"Xing, trust Xianzhou's judgment! If that wicked woman really has some ulterior motive, then she has only herself to blame. Let's head to the Grand Diviner's Office now!"

March 7th pulled Xing's arm, preparing to leave, while Xing said somewhat helplessly.

"Sigh! It really feels like I've encountered a masked fool who impersonated me and helped me escape. I really don't want to walk this far. If I were Fu Xuan, I would definitely keep that guy here and make him work in my place."

"Hehe, Xing, your lazy and slacking-off behavior is unacceptable."

Just after March 7th refuted Xing, Jing Yuan frowned. "You're saying... there's a masked fool disguised as Fu Qing?"

"Yes, ah! General, it seems I haven't reported this to you yet! But it happened yesterday. We've been chasing Kafka ever since, and we've been so busy that we forgot to tell you."

Jing Yuan immediately stood up and hesitated in the room for a moment. His brows, which had been relaxed, were now furrowed into a tight knot.

"Strange, the Masked Fool has also infiltrated the Immortal Ship. I really didn't notice that."

March 7th was a little puzzled. "General, aren't the Masked Fools just a group of people who like to play pranks and have fun? Are they really that dangerous?"

“You’re right, but that’s not entirely accurate. The pleasures of the Masked Fools can’t be generalized, and their behavior is the most illogical of all. Even with Fu Qing’s Sky Observation Array, it’s likely that predicting their whereabouts and purposes would be completely impossible. Right now, the Immortal Ship is in crisis. If the Masked Fools cause trouble at this critical juncture, it could be… very troublesome.”

However, after pondering for a moment, Jing Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

"The uncertainty surrounding the Masked Fool is troublesome, but the current crisis is still the unresolved chaos of the Star Core, and now another Star Core Hunter has infiltrated the Immortal Ship. It seems that the troubles we've been facing recently are more than all of the past ten years combined!"

Chapter 14 Hanabi plays the role of blue sparrow

"Qinglan, isn't this your sister? Why did you bring her here?"

Qinglan carried the unconscious Qingque back to the inn. Hanabi was surprised to see this and asked her a question.

After all, she had seen Qinglan's past, so she still remembered what Qingque looked like.

"Fu Xuan sent her to guide the train crew to the Taibu Si. I plan to disguise myself as her and sneak in with them. Do you want to come along?"

"Does this have anything to do with your feast of pleasure?"

"No, but I heard that Kafka was arrested, and I want to go and see her."

Upon hearing this, Hanabi's eyes widened in surprise, and her rosy cheeks flushed with a hint of eager anticipation.

"That Star Core Hunter has been captured! This is a Star Core Hunter with a bounty of over 10 billion! This is going to be hilarious! Come, come, settle your sister here. I want to get a good look at the imprisoned Star Core Hunter up close. Ahahaha, this is a rare sight indeed!"

Upon hearing that the Star Core Hunter had been captured, Hanabi stood up abruptly. She had been lying limply on the bed, but she suddenly sat up and immediately put Qingque on her own bed.

"Oh my, your little sister is so cute! Let me give her a sweet dream, at least a whole day of sleep. By the way, does your sister know you're back?"

"Not yet, and I don't plan to let them know."

Immediately afterwards, Qinglan sat on the bed and smiled as he looked at Qingque drooling in her sleep.

"If this girl were awake, I would definitely make her cry a lot."

"Your personality is truly awful. By the way, it's been quite a few years since you left the Immortal Ship!"

"About twenty years!"

"You haven't seen your sister for over twenty years, don't you have anything to say to each other?"

"What are you talking about? That day, I was disguised as Fu Xuan and she recognized me. This girl is still the same as before, she likes Di Yuan Qiongyu so much!"

Then, Qinglan stroked her hair, a hint of affection in her eyes, "It's been over twenty years since I last saw her, and this girl has actually joined the Taibu Si. Alright, Huahuo, transform into her likeness! But you must remember her habits and personality, otherwise you'll be easily recognized."

Hanabi carefully examined Aoko's body, then slowly ran her fingers down Aoko's forehead, and couldn't help but exclaim in delight.

"I've finally met someone even flatter than me! I absolutely adore this girl."

Immediately afterwards, fireworks-like fish appeared around Hanabi's body, and with a change of her waist, she transformed into the shape of a blue sparrow.

"Your sister is in good health, she'd be a good match for me."

Fireworks even took a detour, clearly showing how relaxed she was as Qingque, while Qinglan said calmly.

"Isn't that to be expected? After all, you two are about the same size!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Hanabi kicked Aoran and then said with a smile.

"My dear brother, I've transformed into a bluebird. How will you get in?"

Hearing Hanabi's chilling words, Qinglan couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over her body.

"Can you please stop talking like that? It's creepy!"

"Hahaha, Qinglan, even you have things you're at a loss for! Hmm? My dear—brother—"

Hanabi deliberately drew out her voice. Although she looked like Aozaki, her tone and voice were Hanabi's. Even Qinglan felt as if her ears had been raped after hearing it.

"That's enough, that's enough. Stop talking and hurry up to the agreed location! What if no one comes to see you?"

"And what about you? Who are you going to pretend to be? Are you just going to give me my spot to watch the fun?"

Qinglan smiled calmly, "Have you forgotten that my mask can disguise everything?"

As she spoke, Qinglan put the mask on her face, and almost instantly, her entire body shrank, transforming into a colorful pet sparrow.

After Qinglan transformed into a bird, she flapped her wings and flew directly onto Hanabi's shoulder.

"Let's go! I'll lie on your shoulder and sleep for a while. Wake me up when we get there."

Hanabi:…………

She was starting to regret it. Could she really turn into a bird? She certainly didn't want to become Qinglan's mode of transportation!

Why don't we just throw this thing into the water! Just as Hanabi had this thought, she saw that Aoran had already fallen asleep on her shoulder with her eyes half-closed.

The moment Hanabi's hand landed on him, the thought of throwing him into the water vanished, and she gently stroked Qinglan's feathers.
