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

In the video, Jiang Jiu didn't say much about what happened to Onfaros afterwards.

Rather than interfering, he seemed to be more laissez-faire.

If this term isn't quite right, then it could also be described as not interfering with the occurrence of predetermined events on the future timeline.

After all, if something goes wrong, he'll have to step in and fix it.

That's really troublesome.

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."

[Su Chang: The Starry Sky Train is a really nice place. Although it looks quite cozy now, Jiang Jiu probably didn't just get on the train for rest, did he?]

[Gui Naifen: Hmm? Wasn't he here to rest?]

[Qingque: Hmm... I remember it was because Xing died during the final battle, and no matter how hard we tried, the later stages were just a mess of dead ends, so that's why...?]

[Fu Xuan: That's why I infiltrated the train crew directly to gain their trust...]

[March 7th: Stop, stop, stop! This is turning into a horror movie! Don't slander our comrades, not even temporary ones!]

[Fu Xuan: ...gain their trust, then protect them.]

[March 7th: Huh? Huh? Cough cough... It's nothing now~]

Fu Xuan: Sigh...

[March 7th: Actually, no matter what you say, I still think Jiang Jiu was just resting on the train. He seemed quite happy on the train. How could someone like that be here for strategic purposes?]

[Fu Xuan: ...Senior Sister, did I hear that right? Why would anyone doubt that Jiang Jiu, who is so decisive and almost ruthless towards his targets, is acting without any ulterior motive...?]

[Yao Guang: Ahem... Perhaps it's true, Miss March 7th is rather naive, which is quite nice.]

[March 7th: Hey! Don't beat around the bush and say I'm stupid!]

[March 7th: Given Jiang Jiu's status, he doesn't need to gain our trust at all, right? If he wants to do something, he can just say so directly, can't he? Anyway, our entire train crew combined can't beat him.]

[Himeko: March...that's a bit harsh.]

But the Grand Diviner didn't indulge him at all.

[Fu Xuan: Then you might as well think carefully about what kind of situation would make Jiang Jiucai need to gain your trust?]

[March 7th: But.......]

[Danheng: In March, these two motivations are not actually contradictory. He can enjoy life on the train while achieving his goal; there's no need for him to choose between companions and helpers.]

In the video, Jiang Jiu closed the door and stayed alone for a while.

After a while, he 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."

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

[Star: Okay, so Jiang Jiu got in the car for a reason after all. I thought you really wanted to drink Himeko-neechan's coffee.]

[March 7th: What did I come here for? It couldn't possibly be to drink the coffee my sister made, right? Oh no, no...]

[Dan Heng: So Jiang Jiu's real purpose in boarding the train was to accompany us into Onfaros, so that we could place anchor points inside Onfaros, allowing the Black Tower to hack into the Scepter system from the outside.]

[Danheng: This matches the situation in the previous Final Line perfectly...]

[Sunday: ...So, when March 7th dragged him to dinner, he was actually thinking about a strategic plan to establish an anchor point within Onphalus? Is this contrast frightening or reliable?]

[The robin: Reliable, absolutely reliable, because it means that no matter what he's doing, he hasn't forgotten the most important thing.]

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?

[Xia Die: Wow... I'm an undercover agent on the train, but the reason I'm invincible is so that I can obtain a coordinate and save the world with you. Whenever I need you, you'll always respond immediately. I don't need to explain; the moment I open my mouth, you understand what I mean...]

[Fireworks: This is love!]

[Aista: As expected, a good cook's word is the essence of a meal.]

[Xia Die: So, Ms. Black Tower and Lord Jiang Jiu are a match made in heaven, aren't they? They're both the kind of people who, even when faced with dire straits, will lament how terrible the world is while still continuing to move forward...]

[Star: You're wrong. Jiang Jiu will give up on himself for a moment, doubt himself, then impulsively destroy the world once, and then continue to work hard.]

[Sai Fei: Are you allergic to romance?]

"I miss you," Jiang Jiu suddenly said.

Black Tower: "...?"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Jiu made such a sudden remark, and Black Tower found it somewhat amusing, saying, "Who told you not to come directly to me? Wouldn't it have been much easier 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."

Bronya: Sweet, sour, and astringent.

[Seele: Sour?]
