Travel through the Collapse Iron and start your journey from Genshin Impact

Paimeng looked at the food in Xiangling's hand, and went over to ask for a portion. After taking a bite, he shook his body with envy:

"I really envy you, Xiangling. It seems like you never stop talking~"

Ying chuckled and jokingly said:

"Come to think of it, you're just like usual, Paimon."

Xiangling didn't feel embarrassed at all when she heard this. Instead, she nodded vigorously and said seriously:

"Yeah! Eat more! Only then can you accurately distinguish the flavors of the ingredients, and then you can create more delicious food!"

After seeing a few girls fighting for a while, Walter shook his head and smiled helplessly:

"Everyone, now is not the time to play. We can still do what we can for them, such as...finding the murderer."

After hearing this, several girls stopped fighting and started sharing the information they knew.

Ji Zi tapped her chin with her fingertips, her eyes thoughtful:

"Let's sort out the current situation. Xing's words reminded me of something. Xiao Sanyue, do you still remember what the family representative who negotiated with us said?"

San Yue Qi tilted his head and recalled, his tone somewhat uncertain:

"'Indeed, we believe that the Nameless Guest has nothing to do with this matter, and we implore you to assist the family in identifying the deceased.' That's what they said... referring to Miss Liuying."

Ji Zi's eyes darkened, and her tone became sharper:

"Looking back now, he was a little evasive and silent about another incident that should have happened earlier."

San Yueqi pursed his lips, a trace of worry flashing across his face:

"The family is trying to conceal the news of Miss Mockingbird's death. If this matter gets out, Pinocchio will really be a river of blood..."

Walter folded his hands in front of him and analyzed solemnly:

"But the second incident that followed obviously exceeded their expectations, so the family had to follow the trend and ask for help from outsiders. The Harmony Ceremony is approaching, and they must be at their wits' end."

Ji Zi nodded slightly, with a glimmer of insight in her eyes:

"It may also be because there are many witnesses to Miss Liu Ying's incident and it is inconvenient to cover it up. It is better to go with the flow and let more people enter the scene to control the situation."

She paused, glanced at everyone, and spoke in a serious tone:

"After all, the nature of the two cases is fundamentally different... The family's primary concern is visitors with ill intentions, such as the company's envoy."

Sanyueqi held his chin, his eyes filled with a mixture of nervousness and anticipation.

"This time we're going to play detective for real... But before we begin the investigation, how should we answer our family and the gold dust?"

Jizi folded her arms, thought for a moment and said:

"In my opinion, the family holds no ill will towards the Star Train. If they didn't have deep faith in the train crew's character, they would never have so easily entrusted such a scandalous case to outsiders like us to investigate."

She looked up at everyone and added:

"Besides, this is the family's territory. If we cooperate with them, the subsequent investigation should be able to avoid many detours and be much more convenient."

Walter's eyes were calm, and his tone was filled with careful consideration:

"But with the situation still unclear, establishing more connections isn't a bad thing. Sha Jin showed his skill with just a few words. As long as our interests align, he can become a reliable ally."

He paused and added:

"We must also carefully balance our distance from the family and avoid getting too close. Collaborating with the company can be a way to check and balance things. If either party has ulterior motives, we have room to withdraw."

March Seven frowned, his tone full of worry:

"I understand the logic, but there are too many bad women and bad men here. I'm really afraid of being backstabbed! Xing and Ying have been bullied several times. I really can't stand it..."

【Yellow Spring “………”】

【Black Swan “………”】

【Sam “………”】

Xing and Ying exchanged a glance, then suddenly chuckled. Remembering the red envelope Shajin had given them before leaving, and the amount of credit points in it, they said in unison:

"It's okay, he gave too much."

March 7 opened his mouth, but only a string of silent ellipsis remained:

"........."

Dividing line——

Zhang Yu did not return to the train immediately. Instead, he looked at the communicator. It was a meeting request from Sunday. He also guessed what Sunday wanted to say.

It was simply that Liuying's "death" would make Sunday think that he would intervene in the investigation, so he had an idea and disappeared from the spot, intending to meet the other party.

When Zhou Ri looked up and saw Zhang Yu suddenly appear in the office, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly concealed his expression and regained his composure:

"Mr. Zhang Yu's appearance was truly unexpected."

Zhang Yu shook his head, a faint smile on his face, and walked straight to a chair beside him and sat down:

"I wonder what Mr. Sunday wants to talk to me about privately?"

Zhou Ri also stopped being polite after hearing this, and his expression gradually became serious. He was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked:

"Mr. Zhang Yu, which one is more necessary, 'harmony' or 'order'?"

Zhang Yu looked at Zhou Ri's tentative tone and smiled helplessly:

"You're asking the wrong person. I have no opinion on either 'Harmony' or 'Order'... After all, one of my passengers is an 'Order' commander."

"what?!"

Sunday stood up suddenly, his face full of incredible shock.

Obviously, no one expected that after "Order" had been swallowed by "Harmony" for so long, there would still be an Order Envoy born.

After a long while, he slowly digested this shocking information, took a deep breath, and spoke solemnly:

"I believe that Mr. Zhang Yu already knows what happened in the hotel? I..."

Zhang Yu nodded slightly, and before he could finish, he raised his hand to interrupt:

"I'm not going to stop you from doing anything you want. If you called me here just to test whether I would take action against you, then you can rest assured."

"As for what my passengers and Himeko decide to do, that's not something I can influence. The train will never force anyone to make a choice."

He paused and added, "Of course, if they fail, I will take them away."

Sunday was visibly relieved, and his tense shoulders relaxed slightly:

"it is good."

Zhang Yu muttered to himself, "Failure? How could they possibly fail? With me secretly guiding them, it's hard for them to lose. I won't take action, but I didn't say I won't help. Little Zhou Ri brother, you have it in hand!"

He stood up and nodded to Sunday:

"Since there's nothing else, I'll go back first. I wish you good luck."

Sunday also stood up and watched Zhang Yu's figure disappear out of thin air.

Although other unknown guests will continue their investigation, Zhang Yu's departure has ultimately relieved a lot of pressure on his shoulders.

Chapter 135 Paimon has grown up

After some investigation, Xing and his companions also noticed many unusual clues, so they followed the clues to meet Huang Quan.

Ji Zi stepped forward first, speaking in a calm and polite tone:

"This must be Miss Huang Quan, right? Hello, I'm Ji Zi, the navigator of the Starry Sky Train."

March Seventh immediately poked his head out and waved his hand energetically:

"Hello, my name is March Seven! I don't need to introduce these people in detail, I'm sure you know them all~"

Xing suddenly took a step forward and said in a proud voice:

"As for me, you can call me 'Clock Boy'."

Sanyueqi tugged at her sleeve helplessly:

"Hey...be serious!"

Huang Quan nodded slightly, his voice cold:

"Hello."

Huang Quan looked at the people interacting on the train, a hint of warmth flashed across his eyes, and his voice became softer than before:

"Your relationship is truly enviable."

Walter tapped his palms with his fingertips, and his brows relaxed a little:

"Since Miss Huang Quan is not a dangerous individual and has no hostility towards the Star Train, Sha Jin's previous accusations are merely one-sided."

He paused, turned his gaze towards the crowd, and spoke in a more serious tone:

"Therefore, he is obliged to provide a reasonable explanation before continuing our cooperation."

Ji Zi folded her arms, raised her eyebrows slightly, and spoke with a tone of inquiry and understanding:

"Are you trying to...create a situation where three parties are present together?"

Walter's fingertips gently moved in the air, his eyes were as deep as a pool, and his tone was solemn:

"There must be a deeper logic behind Shajin's actions. I guess he has been aware of the secret of Pinocchio from the beginning and has been making plans to uncover it."

He changed the subject and his voice deepened:

"In this case, the position of the Star Train in his plans is crucial. In the worst case scenario... he might use us for something unconventional."

He glanced at everyone and spoke with a cautious tone:

"Assuming the situation really develops to that point, having one more ally is also an extra insurance. Pinoconi has many mountains and the situation is far more complicated than that of Beloberg and Xianzhou."

Xing's eyes lit up, and Ying straightened her back, and they both said in unison:

"The protagonist exists for this moment!"

San Yue Qi slapped his forehead helplessly, puffed his cheeks and said angrily:

"You're saying weird things again... but the momentum is good. No matter what, we can't ignore Pinocchio's safety."

Ji Zi raised her hand to tidy up her hair, her eyes sharp and firm, her tone sonorous and powerful:

"To solve the mystery of the Watchmaker, we must use the information held by the company. Even though there are dangers ahead... facing challenges head-on is what pioneering is, right?"

Walter nodded slightly, turned his gaze to Huang Quan, and said in a gentle tone:

"It seems there are no objections. Then... Miss Huang Quan?"

Huang Quan's fingertips brushed across the earrings, his eyes calm, his tone clear and crisp:

"Of course I'll go too."

Sanyueqi clenched his fists excitedly, stood on tiptoe, and said in a joyful tone:

"Then let's go! But... where can we find him?"

Ji Zi's lips curled up into a faint smile of understanding, and her tone was calm and unhurried:

"Don't worry. If someone really set up this trap... he'll definitely find a way to invite us in."

As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding speakers suddenly blared, and then Sha Jin's exaggerated and enthusiastic voice came out, as if he was presiding over a grand celebration:

"ladies and gentlemen--"

He drawled out his words, his tone full of incitement:

"The most amazing and grand show ever staged by Pinocchio is about to begin—"

The voice suddenly rose, full of declaration:

"The Interstellar Peace Company sincerely invites you to visit the site - Clark Film Park!"

Ji Zi listened attentively, then turned to look at everyone, her smile deepening, her tone filled with a hint of teasing certainty:

“…Look.”

She tapped her temples with her fingertips and said in a relaxed tone:
