Starry Sky Railway, the order of abundance makes me want to die

"Several officers are missing..."

"Missing? Are you sure he didn't just leave without saying goodbye?"

Topa frowned and asked in confusion. She had obviously done her homework and knew about the previous attacks on the space station.

Staff members who have encountered life-threatening situations will inevitably question the security of the space station. It is understandable that a very small number of people will have thoughts like "The universe is so scary, I want to go home" and leave without saying goodbye.

"...Although the voices of doubt have never subsided since the Legion incident, the results of reconstruction and revitalization have soothed some of the noise. Moreover, these four officers have no field records at all, and their signal sources were suddenly disconnected, as if... they disappeared out of thin air."

"Disappear into thin air?"

Felittis frowned subconsciously. She closed her eyes and felt the breath of life lingering in the entire space station, then frowned in confusion.

...I couldn't tell it. There were too many life breaths, and she wasn't a deity. She was able to tell Latio's life breath because there was no one else in the confinement section.

"Well, the only clue at the moment is Adler's discovery: before and after the disappearance, there was a record of the space station's automatic fire extinguishing system being briefly activated."

Estelle nodded.

"That is to say, the disappearance of each victim was accompanied by an incredible fire. I have sent Alan to investigate the matter secretly, and the eyewitness testimony I received also confirmed this..."

"That's really weird."

Topa also frowned. Even she had never heard of such a case. Spontaneous combustion and then disappearance... This was too unbelievable.

Suddenly, as if she thought of something, she waved to the air.

A strange light suddenly flashed beside Topa, and a circular space gap suddenly opened, and a... black pig-shaped creature suddenly emerged from the gap.

The smile on Topa's face grew wider, and she opened her arms and hugged the piglet smoothly.

"...What's this?"

Felicity had never seen this kind of creature, but she saw with her own eyes that pig jumped out of the space crack, and strange materialized formulas kept emerging from its head.

——Could this thing have calculated the space crack? Nowadays, even pigs are smarter than her?

"Its name is Zhang Zhang. It's my pet, a dimensional piggy bank. Don't treat it as an ordinary dimensional piggy bank~"

Topa almost buried her entire face in Zhangzhang's body, and even her voice became muffled.

"Aunt, do you notice anything wrong?"

Although she was asking questions, Topa's cheek was already pressed tightly against Zhangzhang's body. She rubbed Zhangzhang's soft body hard, her face filled with a happy smile.

"Woo~"

Zhang Zhang kicked his short legs and struggled hard, but was unable to get free. Only after listening to Topa's question did he give up struggling. His pointed nose, which was particularly prominent in front, trembled slightly, and after sniffing a few times, he nodded vigorously.

"What Zhang Zhang means is that it smelled the fluctuations caused by the movement of space."

Topa turned around and looked at Felittis and Ester.

"Okay! Without further ado, let's go to the Black Tower and find out!"

Felicity said happily that it was always a good idea to ask the Black Tower if you encountered something you didn't understand, as the Black Tower would always have the answer.

"...Ms. Heita sent me a message half a system hour ago, saying that she had something to do and was out on patrol."

Esta covered her face, looking a little desperate.

"Then ask ScrewGum!"

Felittis waved her fist, looking aggressive. Although she was least familiar with Screw-Gum among the three geniuses, Screw-Gum was still a genius after all, so he should be able to come up with a solution.

"Ask Screw Gum? That's a solution... but he's a guest after all, so it's not appropriate, right?"

Esta looked hesitant.

"Oh, things have come to this point, what's appropriate or inappropriate?"

Felittis took Esta's arm and began to pull her out.

"Everyone's missing. If we don't solve this problem, someone will die. It will be even more troublesome to deal with it then!"

"......makes sense."

Esta was silent for a moment, then nodded solemnly.

"Hey, wait for me."

Only then did Topa let go of the rope and quickly followed Felicity and Ester.

Zhang Zhang was finally freed. It jumped down, and the moment it landed, a space crack opened up, and then it disappeared into it.

Chapter 124 The Duke of Hellfire

"The antimatter army's attack happened not long ago, and people are in a state of panic. At this time, a series of disappearances of officers have occurred, which will undoubtedly reduce the officers' trust in the space station to zero. Therefore, I hope to temporarily block the information..."

Esta looked at the people standing in front of her with a stern face, her sky-blue eyes revealing a hint of despair.

"At least... the fewer people who know the information, the better..."

"Hey, don't say that, we're here to help too!"

San Yueqi laughed and scratched her head. She looked around happily with her green camera in her hand, observing the surrounding environment with some curiosity.

"I have traveled through so many worlds and have seen many prisons, but this is the first time I have seen a special interrogation room. Let me take a few more photos..."

She followed Felicity when she saw her while wandering around the space station. She originally wanted to take some photos with Felicity, but she accidentally overheard the secret between Esta and Felicity...

Estelle didn't want to involve her, but Felittis said that given Sanyueqi's personality, if you didn't tell her it was a big secret, she might not tell anyone, but if you told her -

——You can get a pink-haired beautiful girl who sits quietly in a chair, looking up at the stars or the ceiling, not knowing what she is thinking and fidgeting for some reason.

How terrible, Sister Fili! You know me too well!

March 7 wanted to scream loudly, but the occasion didn't seem appropriate, so she nervously followed Felicity closely with her camera in hand.

"Let's get this matter sorted out first."

Felittis gently stroked Esta's smooth back as a comfort, and her eyes fell on Xing beside her.

"Hmm... space jump, spontaneous human combustion. I have thought of a reasonable answer, but it still needs a little verification."

Latio cast a somewhat cold gaze on Felicity.

"Not long ago, the Antimatter Army attacked the space station. According to Ester, those who are missing now are all staff members who have complained about the space station management. It's like a trap set."

Topa was standing aside with her arms folded, and Zhangzhang appeared at her feet at some point, shaking her head.

"I have seen similar methods in Xianzhou..."

Felicity complained subconsciously that the Lord of Extinction, Huanlong, had used a similar method on the Immortal Boat, triggering the long-accumulated internal conflicts in the Immortal Boat and leading it to self-destruction.

"I agree. Logic: The common ground between the officers is too subtle. The enemy's goal is obviously to cause civil unrest in the space station."

ScrewGum nodded approvingly.

"Question: How did the enemy manage to make the officers spontaneously combust and disappear?"

"Ms. Topa claims that the dimensional piggy bank can sense the fluctuations caused by space jumps... I will not question it for now."

Latio spoke again, his eyes swept through the crowd and finally stopped on Felicity. He borrowed the computer on the table and uploaded a photo.

"Please see, not long before you came to me, a puppet in the Black Tower of Genius #83 was also attacked and disappeared. The modus operandi was very similar to the previous one, both of them were set on fire and then disappeared."

Latio raised his hand to signal.

The people in the space station are all fans who came here to follow the name of Black Tower, and the other party chose to attack Black Tower's puppets in the most crowded places. Their purpose is obviously to further stimulate the conflict between the management and the grassroots.

Esta's expression became more and more worried. Repairing damaged trust is much more difficult than building and destroying it. If things continue to ferment, the space station may be destroyed.

Xing was still in a daze. She didn't even know when she was brought to this small room. When she regained consciousness, she saw Felicity protecting her behind her.

When Xing heard Zhenli slowly say that the Black Tower was attacked, her eyes immediately widened, and her gaze quickly fell back on Felicity's face, fearing that Felicity would show an angry expression.

Fortunately, Felittis just nodded thoughtfully.

"I happened to hear the staff mention that if there is someone in the space station who can contact the Black Tower at any time, that person can only be Ms. Felittis."

Latio continued,

"The simplest way to verify this is to ask Ms. Black Tower directly: ask her if she can locate her own puppet."

"It seems... to make some sense?"

Felicity blinked and nodded as if she suddenly understood something. She was about to say something else when she turned around and saw the screen of the computer terminal on the table began to flash.

zizi——

The picture suddenly changed, showing a figure that seemed to come from hell. Its whole body looked like a blazing flame, except for its head which was a goat-like skull.

The flames were dancing, but were restrained by the leather suit. The figure opened his arms, as elegant as a conductor.

It opened its mouth, as if to sing:

"The gods of the stars are detached from the world and have no intention of caring about the insignificant living beings. Only the benefactor who bears the wound can bathe the worlds in the flames of 'destruction'. There are always cowardly villains who try to refuse grace and escape the wound."

Its voice suddenly increased, and its tone was playful, like a hunter playing with his prey:

"Escape, escape as much as you can - no matter where you flee, annihilation will eventually visit you!"

"Uh... I'd like to ask, is this goat-headed man also one of the Lords of Extinction?"

San Yueqi scratched his head and asked with some confusion.

Too arrogant, this tone. To attack another genius in front of a genius and an envoy is so arrogant. It's a bit unreasonable for an envoy to attack another genius in front of him, right?

"No. This 'Underworld Fire Duke' Afrit was born from the extinct planet 'Tophet'. The Fire Demons, who are always burning, regard Nanook as their emperor and benefactor, but they have never been even glanced at by the Star God."

ScrewGum replied.

"...Then how dare it be so arrogant in front of Sister Fili?"

March 7 showed a shocked expression.

"Isn't it afraid that our sister Fili will suppress it alone?"

"Correction: The fact that Ms. Felitis is the Envoy of Plenty is only known to some of the company's senior executives, the station leaders, and the people on the train. It is very likely that the Grand Duke of Hellfire is unaware that there is another Envoy of Plenty hidden in the station."

ScrewGum continued to explain.

"Then what should we do next?"

Esta asked somewhat uneasily. Although she already knew the other party's identity, she still couldn't think of how to resolve this crisis.

Chapter 125: Felitis strikes hard

"So what should we do next?" Estelle asked anxiously.

"..."

ScrewGum rested his chin on his hand. He pondered for a while before coming to a conclusion:

"Afrit's flames should not be able to change phases. Logic: The cross-dimensional creature Dimension Piggy Bank spends almost its entire life escaping and eating, and is extremely sensitive to fluctuations in space, while phase changes will not cause fluctuations."

"That is to say, both the Duke of Hellfire and the abducted officer must still be somewhere in the space station. As long as we find them, the crisis facing the space station will naturally be solved."

Latio nodded calmly, agreeing with Screwgum's conclusion.

"Well, next, I will go to the Black Tower office and activate the folding space in the Strange Object Containment Room. As long as the parameters are slightly modified, it can be used to block Afrit's transfer route and seal him in the space station."

ScrewGum quickly came up with a solution.

"If the other party is an elemental life, I should be able to find traces of its movement."

Felittis also raised her hand.

It is not easy to find a special one among a large number of similar life energies, but it is easy to find the one that is burning brightly among a large number of life energies.

"Ms. Topa, can I trouble you to go to the piggy bank to track down the

The few of them had made up their minds and were about to act separately when they felt a hot breath suddenly falling from the sky.
