Pam: "So, do you and the other passengers admit responsibility for the following vicious incidents—"

"You drove a snowmobile into Tycoon Arena, disrupting the order of the venue, causing the game to be interrupted, and causing twenty Trail Blazers to work with you for three months without pay to repair the severe damage to the arena's facade—"

""—You! Do you confess, Pa?""

Chapter 327: Pinocchio (16)

Akivelli sighed helplessly: "...I admit it."

"You sneaked into the Hay-Aye State Zoo and used half the train's Amber Age budget to buy 250 baby rhinoceroses. You kept them in the restroom, causing them to multiply endlessly, causing massive amounts of sewage to flood the other carriages—" Pam's voice grew increasingly irritated, her ears practically standing up.

""——Do you confess, Pa?!""

-

Dragon clan.

"Is this really a Star God? What does this have to do with Akivelli?"

Caesar frowned, an expression of disbelief on his face: "It looks like a high school student caught in a premature love affair by the homeroom teacher."

Aren't Star Gods the kind who can obliterate countless galaxies and civilizations with the snap of a finger? Even if they can't kill [Fertilization] with three hammer strikes like [Cun Hu], they should at least display some of the aura of a Star God, right? And what happened...

He was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

"Legend has it that Achievelli is the star god closest to humans, and the rumors are indeed true." Chu Zihang looked as if he had suddenly realized something. "Back in the simulated universe, Xing was imitating Achievelli, but at the time I thought it was a bit exaggerated. Now it seems... Xing was a bit conservative."

"I feel that Akivali is not a star god. He is more like a human being than a star god... or, he is actually a human being, but he was accidentally promoted to a star god in the process of following the train [exploration]?" Caesar guessed.

"I agree with your latter guess." Chu Zihang nodded. "Also, Pam's life span is longer than I expected."

At first, Chu Zihang guessed that Pam might be a relic left to the Star Train by the pioneering star god Akivali before his death, but he didn't expect that it was actually older than a star god... It seems that Pam is the most mysterious one on the train.

"Pam then went on to list Achiavelli eating forty-two of those crispy Pam-Pam pies, and so on, forty-six in total. He finally had no choice but to confess to all of them."

Achievelli was filled with shame: "I'm sorry... I'm the worst anonymous person in the world."

Pam slowly shook her head: "...No, you are not Pam."

"Achivelli raised his head and said: "Is there anyone worse off than me?"

“Of course.”

""who?""

"Pam was jumping up and down excitedly: "That's the guy who blew the train in two, Pam!"

"..."

"That's the end of the dream bubble. Xing bought it on the spot for Pam, who was in the car, by spending 100,000 credits to buy it."

"Xing was about to continue strolling around when she heard a commotion not far away."

"She followed the sound and saw a lovely, gray-haired girl trapped on a street corner by a group of men in black. The situation was quite tense."

"The moment the girl saw Xing, hope suddenly shone in her eyes. She nimbly sideways, slipped between the two men in black, and quickly ran to Xing's front."

“No, sorry! Please help me…”

"The girl tilted her head back, her eyes like glass cups filled with starlight, gazing at the stars with tears in her eyes. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, casting an uneasy shadow beneath her eyes."

“…I can’t refuse that at all!”

"It's my duty to protect this beautiful girl!" Xing proudly put his hands on his hips and pulled the girl behind him."

-

Gintama.

"Clap."

The strawberry milk slipped from Gintoki's hand, splashing a pink stain on the floor of the Yorozuya. Gintoki stared blankly at the encounter between the star and the gray-haired beautiful girl in the sky, feeling like the sky was falling.

"Hey, hey! What the hell is this? A classic 'beautiful girl asking for help' scenario? Doesn't that only happen in Shonen Jump? No... this kind of chance encounter with the heroine isn't popular in Shonen Jump! Why would something like this happen in real life? And not to me! I've been the main character in this manga for years, okay?!"

Shinpachi pushed up his glasses. "Gin-san, I remember a cute girl asked you for help last week, right? But then you found out she was trying to sell you insurance, so you pretended to have a diabetic seizure and fainted."

"How can they be the same? She didn't even want to have a chance encounter with me, she just wanted to have a chance encounter with my money! The problem is... I haven't even had a chance encounter with money myself!"

Gintoki pointed at the gray-haired beauty in the sky, trembling, "I want this kind! A weak, pitiful, helpless beauty! Obviously, I am the man with the silver natural curls and dead fish eyes, the two standard features of the protagonist of a shonen manga!"

"But Hoshi is a beautiful girl, not the protagonist of a shonen manga?" Kagura picked her nose. "Don't you know, Gin? Just like what they said in a certain JO manga at the beginning: 'Stand users are attracted to each other.' In real life, beautiful girls are also attracted to each other, Aru."

"So... Gin, don't lose heart!" Kagura suddenly pulled out a piece of women's clothing from the closet. "As long as you put this on and stand on the street, a truly beautiful girl will definitely come..."

"Who needs this kind of help?" Gintoki kicked the women's clothing away. "If you make such a suggestion again, I'll replace your vinegared kelp with mayonnaise!"

-

“Guys! She has an accomplice!”

"The two men planned to capture Xing and Liuying together, but after a fight, they were almost captured. Luckily, a rather weathered-looking, bearded man came over. He was their leader and immediately scolded them for their incompetence, mistaking innocent people for stowaways."

"But one of the hounds was very persistent and insisted that Liuying was the stowaway."

This made Gallagher very unhappy. "Bullshit! Take a closer look? The eyewitness report said it was a silver guy, and you are grabbing a little girl with silver hair? How can it be the same thing? And he even got into a fight with the guests!?"

"With that, he told them to get out of here quickly, and he would handle the matter himself."

"Gallagher briefly introduced himself and apologized to Xing and Liuying on behalf of the Hound family."

"Who is that silver guy...?"

Gallagher explained, "The Hound family is the gatekeeper of the Dream Realm, responsible for a wide range of security tasks within it. We've been notified that some criminals have infiltrated Pinocchio under the guise of a grand event. With the Harmony Festival just around the corner, there are many with ulterior motives..."

"..." Liuying took a deep breath nervously.

"Don't worry, miss. I believe this is a misunderstanding. How could such a lovely girl be a stowaway?"

Chapter 328: Pinocchio (Seventeen)

"After thanking Gallagher, he went about his business."

“Thanks for your help just now! Otherwise, I might have really…” The girl paused, “…been captured.”

"The girl calls herself Liuying. She's a native of Pinocchio—an artist of the Warblertail style. She's currently working as an extra. Since she didn't have a performance today, she came out for a stroll. Unexpectedly, she was mistaken for a stowaway."

"Liuying volunteered to be Xing's tour guide, showing her around. As they were talking, Xing noticed Liuying drooping her eyelashes and looking around, especially at the noisy crowd, as if something was hiding among them. But she quickly regained her composure and returned her gaze to Xing."

"Xing thought she was in need of a local guide, so she followed Liuying's advice and followed her on her full tour of Pinocchio."

Kaguya-sama: Love is War wants me to confess my love.

Inside the Shinomiya family's mansion, the girls were in their bedroom, staring intently at the scene of Firefly and Star flying around Pinocchio.

"This is definitely a date!" Kaguya sat on the bed, clutching the pillow tightly. "She activates Xing's protective instinct by asking for help, and then uses repaying a favor to create an opportunity for her to be alone with Xing... She calls it a tour guide, but it's actually a date. This woman... is quite clever."

It's unfathomable.

Hayasaka Ai silently sipped the black tea in her cup: "If the young lady could learn the method of Liuying, she would have defeated the president a hundred times already."

"H-Hayasaka!" Kaguya's face flushed instantly, like a cat whose tail was stepped on. "How can the president be compared with Xing? Xing is a girl! Love tactics for girls..." Her voice gradually faded away, and her fingers unconsciously twisted the lace on her clothes, "...are useless against someone like the president..."

Hayasaka Ai put down her teacup, and the porcelain clattered against the silver tray. "Miss Kaguya, if you want to defeat the opponent, just remember one thing—the most cunning hunters often appear as prey."

"Perhaps you could consider creating some time alone with President Shirogane?" Hayasaka Ai picked up her phone and began looking through the school schedule. "Oh, by the way, Miss Kaguya, the school is organizing a choir competition soon, and student council members must participate. Why don't you take this opportunity to meet the president in the music room to give you some guidance?"

"Sunset, an empty classroom, a single man and a single woman, guidance..." Hayasaka Ai was very satisfied with the plan and gave the girl a thumbs-up. "Then you'll even be able to enjoy the president's singing voice all to yourself."

“This, this little trick…” Kaguya buried her face in the velvet pillow and muffled her voice. “The president will definitely see through it at a glance…”

"So what? Could he refuse? Did you see the star in the sky reject Liuying's little trick? Even though she might not have noticed it at first...it doesn't matter. At least Liuying successfully got the chance to be alone with the star."

Hayasaka Ai smiled slightly: "Believe me, Miss, when the time comes... you only need to conquer the city."

-

"While walking around, Liuying brought Xing to the door of a restaurant."

"This is it. Have you heard the saying—in dreams, hunger is the most precious spice?" Firefly led Xing to a restaurant. "They have most of Pinocchio's delicacies here. Take your pick. I'll pay!" The girl patted her chest proudly.

"My spending power is a bit high..." Xing turned his head and glanced at her.

"This sight immediately made the girl lose confidence: "S-It should be okay, right? I still have some savings..."

"After that, she handed over her remaining private money to Xing, a full 20,000 yuan."

"Xing realized that if he ordered one of every dish in the store, it would cost exactly 20,000 yuan. What a coincidence, right? So he bought all of them without hesitation."

Liuying’s voice began to tremble: “Ah, this, this…”

But now that things have come to this, Liuying can only force a smile: "Have you ordered yet? You... have good taste! Haha... Then, I'll pay..."

-

MYGO.

"That Xing guy...! He's really going too far!"

Li Xi subconsciously clenched the cupcloth in her hand and stared at the forced smile of the firefly in the sky. Her brows were furrowed, and a shallow tooth mark was left on her lower lip.

Seeing that Liuying, who was also working, had spent all the money she had saved with great difficulty in just a few seconds, her heart suddenly ached out of sympathy.

"Xing, do you know how hard it is to work and save money?! You should save more at a time like this!"

Aine noticed that Rikki's movements of wiping the cup became hurried and heavy, and hurriedly whispered to him, "Rikki, don't break the cup, be careful not to cut your hand..."

But Li Xi seemed not to hear it, and instead became more and more angry.

"I don't think it's a big deal. That Miss Liuying...seems to have a very unusual attitude towards Xing." Su Shi elegantly took a sip of the black tea.

"What do you mean by don't care? Does it mean I don't spend your money so I don't care?" Li Xi glared at Su Shi.

"Heh..." Su Shi lowered her eyes, her thick eyelashes casting a shadow on her face, just enough to hide the fleeting displeasure in her eyes. She still had a smile on her lips, but the fingertips holding the cup handle had turned white.

"Lixi, such arbitrary judgment is not appropriate." Su Shi gently tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "This Miss Liuying recognized Xing as a pioneer at first sight. As a native of Pinocchio and a common artist of the Yingweihua school... this insight is too good, isn't it?"

"What does that even mean?"

Su Shi put down the teacup, and the bottom of the cup hit the tray, making a crisp sound slightly louder than usual. "What I want to say is that their meeting may not be accidental, but a long-planned necessity. Miss Liuying may have other plans for Xing."

"Huh? Plot? Don't you think too badly of him?"

Li Xi couldn't understand. Miss Liuying was obviously an ordinary, harmless girl, but in Su Shi's mouth she sounded like a cunning conspirator.

"Rikki, a plot isn't necessarily a bad plot, right?"

Aine smiled and stepped out to smooth things over, seemingly easing the tense atmosphere between the two. "Maybe... uh... Liuying is in love with Xing? Think about it, a young girl from the Warbler Tail family, unwilling to be bound by the prosperity of Pinocchio, dreaming of the sea of ​​stars outside, decided to join the Starry Sky Train through this carefully planned encounter, exploring the world while falling in love with Xing! That's a good development, right?"

Chapter 329: Pinocchio (XVIII)

"Let's eat while walking to the next stop, shall we?"

"Liuying led Xing to visit several iconic locations, and then they came to a huge cartoon statue."

"Look, this statue is Pinocchio's famous cartoon character—Clock Kid!" Liuying introduced enthusiastically. "It's from Pinocchio's longest-running and most famous cartoon series, telling the story of the protagonist Clock Kid and his friends' adventures in Dream Town—it's been serialized for over ten thousand episodes!"

"Is this image really risk-free..." Xing wiped the sweat off his face.

"Eh, risk? Why?" Liuying asked, not quite understanding. "Clock Kid is a household name at Pinocchio, so there shouldn't be any problem...right?"

"But did you know? It's said that the prototype of Clock Kid is the famous Clockmaker. Although Clock Kid in the anime is just a reckless blowhard... But I still believe the theory that the Clockmaker is an unknown person! After all, the idea of ​​reclaiming dreams sounds very pioneering!"

"Liuying asked Xing to take a photo of her and Clock Kid. As they were about to take the photo, Xing's attention was suddenly drawn to a series of cries for help from the statue."

"Help! Help! Help me out! Help!"

"The Clock Boy's eyelashes seemed to be begging Xing to pull them out. Although this seemed like a 'dream', it was nothing compared to taking a photo of a beautiful girl. Xing ignored it and took a photo of Firefly first."

"After the two took photos of each other, Liuying noticed that Xing was a little distracted, looking up at the statue from time to time. She followed his gaze and looked at Clock Kid, but saw nothing."

"Hoshi, what's wrong with the Clock Kid statue?"

-

Chainsaw Man.

Denci sat cross-legged on the sofa, staring at the colorful eyelashes of the clock boy in the sky, but - rather than eyelashes, they were more like a few colorful feathers.
