Collapse Iron: I just transmigrated! You want me to save the Black Tower?!

...Really.

How could you forget that?

He poked the piece of cake that had been pushed in front of him with his fork, looked at it for two seconds, and then stopped eating.

Anyway, I don't really need to eat much, and since the food is tasteless, I don't feel anything no matter how much I eat.

But he didn't give up.

Because March 7th was watching him expectantly from the side, her eyes filled with anticipation, as if saying, "Eat up, eat up, I saved this especially for you."

“It’s especially delicious, thank you March,” he said with a smile, showing no sign of disappointment.

March 7th immediately smiled.

"Right, right! Aunt Himeko's cooking is amazing!"

Himeko coughed lightly: "Little Sanyue, just call me 'older sister'."

"Okay, Himeko-neechan!"

Xing asked quietly from the side, "So should I call her 'Auntie' or 'Sister'?"

March 7th rolled her eyes at her: "Shut up."

Xing obediently shut up, but her expression clearly said, "I didn't say anything wrong."

pretty good.

That's how it should be; life should be vibrant.

"Himeko, has the next stop for the Star Train been decided?"

"Not yet." Himeko raised an eyebrow, surprised that Jiang Jiu would care about this. "The train crew will be holding a route meeting later. Do you have any thoughts?"

Jiang Jiu shook his head.

"No, but I think you will definitely choose Onpharos."

Himeko was taken aback.

"I agree with Lady Black Swan; this place called Onfaros must have something unique about it."

Jiang Jiu smiled.

"Hmm... unique features? Well, there will certainly be quite a few unexpected 'pleasant surprises'."

After all, a trip here means experiencing everything.

They even experienced death.

Isn't it magical?

March 7th came over curiously and asked, "What are you talking about? Your next destination? Let me hear it!"

Himeko smiled and said, "The train conductor will tell you in a bit."

March 7th nodded thoughtfully: "Sunday clearly stated that he doesn't want to interfere with the train's direction. Jiang Jiu, would you like to discuss this with us? It's actually quite interesting—"

"No."

Jiang Jiu yawned: "You guys have fun, just call me when we're almost there."

On March 7th, she released Xing and looked at him curiously.

"Are you full? I didn't see you eat much, and you're already going to sleep?"

"Mm." Jiang Jiu nodded, not minding.

"Wow...you're not going to sleep for two more days, are you?"

"Maybe?"

March 7th looked at Xing with a puzzled expression, then sighed, looking like someone who had been through it all.

"Alright, alright, we won't ask any more questions if you have something to say, but if you don't come out by then, I'll bring Xing and we'll keep knocking on the door until you come out!"

Jiang Jiu nodded: "Okay."

He turned and walked towards his room.

Behind him, March 7th was still muttering to himself, "This guy... he always seems so tired..."

Xing nodded earnestly beside him.

"Yeah, like me after rummaging through the trash for three days."

"...Your analogy is so strange."

"But it's very apt."

Jiang Jiu walked halfway and smiled helplessly.

"It's really lively."

Click.

The door closed behind him, shutting out the hustle and bustle outside.

The room was quiet, and the windows were large, offering a clear view of the Milky Way outside the train.

Jiang Jiu walked to the window, sat on the windowsill, took out his phone, and dialed a familiar number.

The other party answered almost instantly.

"Jiang Jiu."

Black Tower's voice came through the communicator, carrying a hint of laziness, a hint of matter-of-factness, and a hint of... Jiang Jiu couldn't quite put his finger on it, but he could sense it.

"Ah."

How was your time on the train?

Jiang Jiu thought for a moment and then said honestly, "It's very noisy."

Black Tower laughed: "Those little guys are indeed quite noisy. What? Not used to such liveliness?"

Jiang Jiu hummed in agreement: "But it's not bad."

Black Tower was delighted.

It hardly needs much explanation; with the Little Black Tower puppet around, it would be incredibly easy for the Black Tower to find out where Jiang Jiu was and what he was doing.

"Let's get straight to the point. Did you get the anchor point?"

Jiang Jiu hummed in agreement.

"I'll probably accompany those two little guys into Onfaros. Once we're inside, we'll set up an anchor point. After you establish contact, I won't be responsible for anything else."

The Black Tower has already contacted Screw Gum and briefly reconciled accounts with him: "Just come out when the time comes, and we'll hack into the scepter to adjust the time difference between the inside and outside. We'll discuss the specifics after you come out."

After they finished speaking, both of them remained silent for two seconds.

Black Tower sighed: "To be honest, just by simply connecting to a puppet's signal, I learned so much. It really feels like a lifetime ago."

"Black Tower, why do you trust me so quickly on every line?"

"Is that even a question? Of course, it's because I am the Black Tower."

Because I am the Black Tower, isn't this just a matter of course?

Chapter 236 Why are you questioning him? Do you want to die?

Jiang Jiu blinked.

"I miss you."

Black Tower: "...?"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Jiu said something out of the blue, which amused him somewhat: "Why didn't you come to me directly? Wouldn't it have been easy to board the intervention train with me under a different identity to handle the aftermath?"

Why insist on trying to board the train as an anonymous passenger?

Jiang Jiu thought for a moment and then spoke the truth.

"do not know."

"I have no idea what that is."

"I just wanted to give it a try."

"Try what?"

Jiang Jiu said, "They probably want to try out what it's like to embark on a pioneering journey with the Star Train?"

"And now?" Black Tower asked.

"Hmm...it's fine."

"That's fine."

......

Time flew by, and Jiang Jiu didn't pay much attention to the passage of time, actually spacing out for quite a while.

Having likely determined its destination, the train is preparing to jump.

Jiang Jiu could clearly sense the commotion.

As he quietly waited for the train transition to finish, he subconsciously calculated the approximate duration.

"...That's about right."

Jiang Jiu pushed open the door and went straight to the party carriage.

After a quick scan, he identified his objective for the trip.

Black Swan wanted to chat with Xing, but when she turned her head and saw Jiang Jiu, she instinctively took a step back.

Jiang Jiu tilted his head: "...Hmm?"

Black Swan coughed lightly: "This must be Jiang Jiu. Nice to meet you, I am..."

"No need, I know you."

Jiang Jiu walked directly to Xing's side, raised his hand and gently touched the window. Through the memory, the outline of Onpharos appeared in front of everyone.
