Starry Sky Railway: People on the train, nine to five

After a long experience, she was exhausted physically and mentally. It was hard to imagine how she would be treated like a beast of burden by the Black Tower if she stayed in the space station...

"Get in the car."

Under Ji Zi's leadership, Xing Mei finally boarded this train full of uncertainty.

"At this point... I guess Zhou Xiao has prepared breakfast. Come on, I'll take you to have breakfast first." As soon as they got in the car, Ji Zi looked at the time and then said to Xing Mei.

"Breakfast?" Xingmei was slightly startled: "At this time?"

According to the system time of the Black Tower Space Station, it is already half past nine, which may be a little late for breakfast.

"Yeah...Is it incredible? Just get used to it slowly. Trains are a little different from the outside world. As for what the specific differences are..." Ji Zi kept it a secret:

"You can slowly discover it."

Under Ji Zi's leadership, Xing Mei came to the train kitchen and saw Zhou Xiao and conductor Pam.

At this time, Walter and Dan Heng were also in the dining area. Everyone was sitting together eating breakfast. When they saw them coming, they all looked over at the same time.

Ji Zi didn't have much to say about Xingmei's situation. After all, after yesterday's battle, everyone was familiar with each other.

After introducing Xingmei, Ji Zi, who was eating, gradually turned the topic to Zhou Xiao.

"Zhou Xiao, what do you think about your job?" Ji Zi asked.

"idea?"

Hearing Ji Zi's question, Zhou Xiao raised his eyebrows: "It's okay, the work is easy and the environment is good."

Zhou Xiao was speaking the truth. The atmosphere on the train was indeed very good and relaxing.

Listening to Zhou Xiao's description, Ji Zi hesitated for a moment and then said:

"Look, I want to transfer you to the pioneering team... I thought about it last night, it's a pity that you can only be a logistics worker on the train with your ability."

Position transfer.

Everyone present felt very strange.

After all, the abilities Zhou Xiao displayed yesterday were indeed eye-catching, and it felt a bit like a waste of talent to put him in the position of a logistics officer.

of course.

Except Zhou Xiao himself.

After hearing Ji Zi's words, a big question mark flashed across Zhou Xiao's little head.

From a sinecure to a pioneering team...

He definitely doesn't want to do this.

Will Jizi bear grudges?

I just tried making the noodles spicier last night, I don't think she will bear a grudge against me...

Zhou Xiao expressed his regret.

"what do you think?"

As Ji Zi asked the question, Zhou Xiao slowly said, "Sister Ji Zi, I think my current position is very good. It would be even better if I could get a raise."

"As for completing missions with the pioneering team... I'm afraid I'm not up to the task."

Don't waste your time growing up.

Zhou Xiao is very clear about his own capabilities.

It is definitely not a good idea to go out and have fun just when you have enough strength to protect yourself. After all, there are more than just soldiers of the Antimatter Legion in the outside world...

There are many more powerful star gods...

"That's it..."

Ji Zi did not force it, she said it just to seek Zhou Xiao's opinion.

As for Zhou Xiao's suggestion of a higher salary, she also kept it in mind.

After breakfast, Xing felt the atmosphere was very depressing because no one present talked much.

Walter is the type of person who will answer if you ask him, but won't take the initiative to chat about topics if you don't ask him.

Danheng was the same, focusing more on breakfast.

Although Ji Zi introduced herself enthusiastically, she didn't know much about the specific situation on the train and couldn't start a conversation.

As for Zhou Xiao...it seemed that without San Yueqi around, he spoke less.

Xingmei suddenly caught a key person, March 7.

The seemingly carefree March 7th can really liven up the atmosphere.

"Speaking of which...what about March?"

Xingmei asked the question, and Jizi looked at the time and answered:

"I guess... he'll be waking up soon, I think."

San Yueqi is a very lazy person. She usually gets up to eat breakfast after they have finished eating. Sometimes she doesn’t even have breakfast and goes straight to lunch...

"Oh, I see." Xingmei nodded.

...

When Xingmei was asking Ji Zi, Zhou Xiao stopped Dan Heng who was leaving.

"It's still the usual sparring in the afternoon."

After hearing Zhou Xiao's words, Dan Heng paused for a few seconds and then replied, "No."

"how?"

"You can have a sparring match with Uncle Yang. I can't beat you." Dan Heng said frankly.

Zhou Xiao obviously didn't expect Dan Heng to answer like this. He said, "Hey, hey, hey, do you know what it means to learn from each other? Let's make progress together."

But unfortunately...Dan Heng looked like he wasn't going to listen.

...

The crisis of the space station has been temporarily resolved. All that remains is some cleaning work, which does not require much support from the train crew. Naturally, the Starry Sky Train will not stay on the platform for too long.

After breakfast, the train will set off again to the next destination planet.

At Pam's request, Ji Zi put a record in the phonograph, and melodious music slowly sounded from the phonograph.

This music sounds very ethereal, giving people a sense of destiny of exploring the unknown starry sky alone.

Chapter 16: Little thoughts on March 7th!

On the platform, Estelle, Heita, Alan and others watched the Star Train leave again.

...

The universe is vast. Sitting in the sightseeing car and looking through the transparent special glass, the Black Tower Space Station gradually becomes smaller until it disappears from the field of vision and turns into a glimmer of light in the dark universe.

While Xingmei was shocked, she was also more interested in this star train that could travel through the universe.

"Just walk around the train and get familiar with the environment." Ji Zi, who was wearing a dress, keenly caught the expression on Xingmei's face.

It was an expression that felt that everything in front of him was new and interesting.

She had seen this expression on the faces of every passenger who rode the Star Express for the first time.

"Okay..." Xingmei nodded, and then started strolling on the train.

She started by touring the sightseeing car.

In addition to Jizi, there were little Pam and Walter in the sightseeing car.

Walter was sitting on the sofa, holding a notebook in his left hand and a pen in his right hand, drawing something thoughtfully.

Xingmei was very curious, so she walked over.

"Uncle Yang...what are you doing?"

Hearing Xingmei's voice, Walter came back to his senses and glanced at the notebook in his hand to Xingmei.

"Well, nothing much, just a casual drawing."

In the field of vision, Walter was drawing something, which seemed to be the scene of the battle with the Doomsday Beast on the platform yesterday.

It can be seen that it is still in the draft stage. Although it is in the draft stage, there are still many details, and many characteristics of Doomsday Beast can be seen.

"This...is Logistics Officer Zhou?" Xingmei pointed at the little man holding a single sword who was fighting against the Doomsday Beast on the platform.

Although Walter hadn't drawn his face yet, Xingmei made a guess based on her memory of yesterday.

"Yeah, that's right." Walter pushed his glasses and said very steadily:

"This is one of my hobbies. I like to record the adventure scenes that I think are great."

"Uncle Yang is very powerful."

"No, no, just draw something casually."

Sister Xing, who had a brief exchange with Uncle Yang, did not disturb Walter too much. She chose to enter the guest room carriage.

As soon as I entered the guest room carriage, I heard the sound of the door opening. Then March 7, who was in pajamas, walked out with a panicked look on his face, mumbling something.

"It's over, it's over. We overslept again."

Originally, March 7th planned to take advantage of today to stroll around the Black Tower Space Station, take some photos, etc.

I didn't expect... I woke up to find...

Her cabinet moved!

After seeing this scene, San Yue Qi, who was still in a daze, suddenly became much more sober. He looked outside the train barefoot and was sure that the train had really left.

"March...seven?"

When she heard someone calling her, Sanyueqi turned around and saw Xingmei.

"Wow, you're on the bus! We didn't even greet you."

Last night when she was having supper with Ji Zi, she heard Ji Zi say that Xing Mei would also get on the car. She originally planned to go and greet her, but when she woke up, she missed everything.

"It's okay...I just got on the bus not long ago too." Xingmei said.

"Ah... How about this, I'll show you around on the train, and you go to my room and wait for me."

Sanyueqi was also very outgoing and pulled Xingmei into her room.

At first glance, March 7's room looks like a girl's room, with pink as the main color, a wardrobe, a floor-to-ceiling mirror, dolls, and many photos hanging on the wall on one side.

"Sit in my room for a while. Let's go wash up and change clothes. It will be quick."

Listening to San Yueqi's words, Xingmei casually walked around the room, and her eyes were first attracted by the wall with photos hanging on it.

It can be seen that March 7 likes taking photos very much.

Each photo has a different angle and content, including food, scenic spots, and many people. Photos of different styles seem to be hung on the wall in a certain pattern, until a certain point in time, when one more person appears in these photos.

Zhou logistics officer.

Zhou Xiao.

Zhou Xiao is cooking.

Zhou Xiao wielding a long sword...

Zhou Xiao doing weight training.

Zhou Xiao was on equal terms with Dan Heng.

The frequency of Zhou Xiao's appearance has increased significantly. It seems that he is in every photo, but it also seems that Zhou Xiao was photographed by chance in every photo.

For example, in the photo of Zhou Xiao cooking, March 7 seemed to focus more on the food nearby, but the focus was on Zhou Xiao in the distance...

There is also this photo of Zhou Xiao wielding a long sword. Most of the photo is placed on a green plant, as if Zhou Xiao was "accidentally" photographed.

One or two are accidents.

But there may be some explanation for this many photos.

Xingmei touched her chin, and a look of satisfaction gradually appeared on her face.

"We're back."
