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

"I see." Ellie nodded suddenly.

"However, your companions previously told me that your schedule has changed and you will not be staying for the time being."

"Plans can't keep up with changes." Potio interjected.

Ellie looked at Poteo: "Excuse me, who are you?"

"I'm Pam, the newcomer on the train," Portio replied.

[Pam: "??? Then what's my name, Pa?"]

[March 7th "Hehe, when you go out, your identity is given by yourself"]

Dan Heng glanced at Potio speechlessly, but still took over the conversation:

"He's my companion. Because we boarded the train in such a hurry, we haven't updated his information in time, so there might not be a record of him in the system. Can you make some concessions?"

"Oh?" Ellie thought.

"I've seen similar experiences with the anonymous guests who stayed here before. It seems like more and more people are embarking on the path of 'exploration' lately."

She paused and continued, "Since there's a precedent, there's no problem in principle. Please wait a moment while I contact your companion to confirm their identity—"

After operating the terminal for a while, Ellie's expression gradually became embarrassed:

"...I'm sorry, both of you. I can't contact the guests of the Sky Train."

Dan Heng frowned slightly. "Can't get in touch? What does that mean?"

"I'm very sorry, this is the first time I've encountered such a situation." Ellie apologized.

"But the system shows that several guests are still in a dream state."

Poteo tutted. "How about this, you tell us the room number and we go over and take a look?"

"I'm afraid that won't work." Ellie waved her hand quickly. "We need to confirm your identities before we can share your personal information."

"Why don't you just pick one at random, like Walter, and force him to wake up?" Potio came up with another plan.

【Walter “………”】

Jizi: "This is interesting... We're clearly awake, so why does this waiter say we're still dreaming?"

[March 7 "Yes! What's going on?"]

Zhang Yu (group leader) said, "Don't worry. This waiter didn't know the situation either. The higher-ups are hiding it."

"That won't work." Ellie looked embarrassed. "Forced awakening has strict usage regulations and can't be operated casually."

"Neither this nor that, what do you want?"

Poteo smacked his lips impatiently. "Are we supposed to sleep on the floor at the front desk?"

"Please be patient!" Ellie quickly comforted him, "We have to contact your companions to confirm your identity..."

"But the problem now is that we have to confirm our identities before we can contact our companions." Dan Heng calmly pointed out the crux of the matter.

"That's true..." Ellie's tone became increasingly embarrassed.

"My dear, stop with this bureaucratic cycle!"

Poteo frowned and raised his voice, then slowed down his tone.

"Little girl, I'm not picking on you. If you can do it, help us. If you can't, find someone who can make the final decision. Okay?"

"Please calm down, both of you!" Ellie said quickly. "I remember it was Mr. Sunday, the head of the Oak family, who personally handled this matter. Please wait a moment, I'll contact him to handle it."

Looking at Ellie's hurriedly contacting figure, Dan Heng whispered to Potio:

"She wasn't trying to be difficult. She was probably really unsure of how to handle the situation."

Topa: "It seems like the Pinocchio executives are plotting something big. They'd dare to do this when things are so chaotic. What's their reason..."

Chapter 140 Ying "Eats Alone"

Danheng and Potio also inquired about the news everywhere, but the results they got made them feel that something was wrong.

When Potio saw Danheng coming back, he spoke first:

"came back?"

Dan Heng glanced at the empty bar and asked:

"She hasn't come back yet?"

Botio nodded:

"Yeah. I'm starting to think letting her contact that Sunday wasn't a good idea."

He paused, frowning slightly.

"Whether it was the employees or the guests, they were completely clueless about what happened in the dream. They were all enjoying themselves wherever they went... In my opinion, this is definitely not a good sign."

Dan Heng nodded:

"I agree. There's another strange thing—of the five families that govern Pinocchio, the Oak family is the organizer of the council and the person in charge of all management and coordination work both within and outside the dream. But the strange thing is..."

He changed the subject,

"I walked around the hotel a whole time. I didn't see a single member of such an important family on such a crucial day."

Portio was shocked:

"Damn... If I remember correctly, isn't Sunday the head of the Oak family?"

Diluk: "So having the waiter inform Sunday was like giving him a heads-up..."

Ningguang: "But now I can see... that Sunday must be the mastermind behind all this."

March 7: "Ah! At first I thought he was a good guy because he seemed so gentle! But I never expected him to kill people in his dreams."

Zhang Yu (group leader): "Sunday was indeed problematic, but it was just a murder... Think about it, is there something else wrong with it?"

March 7th: “…Is that so? I feel like it was done on Sunday.”

Dan Heng: "No! There are other people behind this. Sunday wouldn't do such a thing in public. There's no need for him to kill his own sister as well."

Walter: "So, that murderer wants us to know something so that he can ruin some of our plans for Sunday!"

March 7: "Oh yeah! By the way, where's Xing? Why hasn't he come out to chat for so long?"

[Ying: "I think he must have gone somewhere to play with his little sister..."]

[Xing: "!!! Yingbao! Did you install a camera on me?"]

[Ying: "!! Really! Are they still each other's treasures? They actually eat alone!"]

【Firefly “………”】

【March 7th “!!!”】

【fluorescent"!!!"】

[Paimon: "Wow! Firefly is really okay, that's great!"]

Walter: "Shouldn't we pay attention to when she joined the group?"

Jizi: "Hmm... There's really no news about joining the group recently, so there's only one possibility, that is, he's always been in the group..."

Zhang Yu (group leader) "Now is the time to ask Xing. I think Xing should already know."

[Xing: "Ahem, let me introduce you, Firefly! Sam from the Star Core Hunter!"]

Ying: "Damn it! He was already in the group chat, and he was looking at us and feeling sad about your death."

[Liuying: "Um... I'm sorry..."]

Dan Heng looked at the chat group that was gradually deviating from the topic, and could only give up. Instead, he said in a deep voice to Potio:

"We shouldn't stay here for long. Let's get back to the train first."

"Don't act rashly." Poteo waved his hand quickly.

"Brother, have you ever robbed a company? If you run away now, you will immediately become the most conspicuous target on the whole street."

Dan Heng raised his eyebrows:

"You want us to stay here?"

"You don't have to obey, but stay here." Potio lowered his voice.

"Even if the family had a conspiracy, they couldn't have anticipated our sudden arrival. To them, we are the 'uncertainty factor.'"

He glanced around

"They won't act rashly. Not only are we afraid of alerting the enemy, they're also definitely afraid of alerting outsiders—see? There are people from the company watching this hotel."

Dan Heng thought for a moment:

"...If I were the family, I would use the process to drag the uncertainty out. There's no need to actively walk into a trap."

"Of course there's no point in wasting time with them." Poteo grinned.

"I left the Rememberer a 'backup plan'. If I really couldn't enter the dream world, she would leave a bottle of wine for me in the VIP room of the real hotel."

Dan Heng understood: "Secret code for the meeting?"

"Exactly."

"Using objects to establish connections is indeed a safe approach," Dan Heng said in a slightly slower tone, but with a hint of helplessness.

"But Mr. Portio, I hope you can inform us of the backup plan in advance next time."

Poteo laughed twice:

"Please bear with me. This is my old habit. If my bad friends reveal the whole plan, they will definitely come up with some tricks for me. No matter how many backups I have, it won't be enough."

Dan Heng frowned slightly:

"Then the question is, how do we get into the VIP room?"

Poteo patted his chest:

"How difficult is this? Just leave it to my wisdom."

After that, he found out the location of the lobby manager, walked straight over, and said in a deep voice with a deliberately stern face:

"Are you the lobby manager here?"

Dennis nodded politely:

"It is I. What can I do for you two?"

Botteo immediately raised his voice:

"We're anonymous guests from the Starry Sky Train. We came here to check in, but we waited for ages with no response! The girl at the front desk said she was going to contact the person in charge, but she disappeared!"

Poteo tutted his words, a little angry.

"My two brothers have been standing here for most of the day without a sip of water or a single grain of rice. Is this the way your family treats guests?"

Dan Heng's mouth twitched slightly as he grumbled softly:

"Is your 'soccer wisdom' just finding fault?"

“This is called fighting for legitimate rights and interests.”

Poteo said without turning his head.

Dennis quickly comforted:

"Please be patient, both of you. I understand the whole story. The hotel needs to confirm the information with Mr. Sunday first. So, I'll arrange for two VIP rooms with drinks. Please go and rest and wait."

Potiou immediately turned around and raised an eyebrow at Danheng:

"See, that's it."

Dan Heng said helplessly:

“…next time, don’t just call yourself Nameless Guest.”

[March 7th "Uh..."]

【Jizi: “………”】
