Chapter 23

"Hello, how are you feeling?" Walter Yang asked with concern.

"Full of energy!" Star's voice was firm, like the first person who planned to launch a warship.

"That's good." Walter Yang pushed his glasses, "It seems your constitution is truly special; in short, thank you for saving Xiao San Yue once."

"You also saved me." Star recalled the surging energy inside her body, with lingering fear, said, "If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid..."

"Actually, it's just to let the thing inside your body calm down temporarily. I'm not trying to scare you, but honestly, as long as it's inside you, you can't be considered saved." Walter Yang cautioned carefully, "As long as the Star Core is inside your body, you must act carefully. I and Ji Zi have no confidence we can always suppress it just right."

Bringing up this matter, the atmosphere suddenly became somewhat heavy; Walter also didn't want to make the atmosphere too stiff, and immediately laughed, "Alright, let's stop the heavy topic here. You can walk around freely, get familiar with the environment, you can go back and chat with San Yue and Dan Heng; young people should get along better."

Indeed, Star realized she hadn't properly explored the train after boarding.

Looking around, the train's interior wasn't luxurious, but items were neatly arranged; greenery could be seen everywhere, and there were chessboards, phonographs, etc., all present.

Arriving at the guest car, Star walked to the door of the first room, when she suddenly heard the sound of electronic equipment from inside; she had just placed her finger on the door to knock when Dan Heng's vigilant voice said, "Who's there?"

"I haven't even knocked yet?"

"After many times of people breaking in, one naturally learns to sense the aura." Dan Heng seemed to recall something unpleasant, his tone turning somewhat resigned, "Come in."

Star pushed open the door, and the furnishings of Dan Heng's room unexpectedly surprised her... simple.

It seemed as if the sleeping area had been moved to a library; the not-so-large room was filled with various electronic equipment and books, a teal blanket and pillow casually placed on a piece of deep blue flooring... one could see that Dan Heng seemed to have low demands for his sleeping quarters.

In order not to disturb Dan Heng's work, Star quietly tiptoed away and arrived outside San Yue Qi's door.

She knocked on the door, but there was no sound from inside.

"San Yue Qi isn't here? Should we go in and have a look?" Star stroked her chin, thinking.

Go! Of course we have to go!

Outside the light curtain, Xiu Ta Er Ke and Zan Yin gazed at Star longingly, devoutly hoping she could fulfill their deepest wish... after all, they've grown this big and have never seen a girl's bedroom! Especially a cute girl's bedroom like San Yue Qi's!

Meanwhile, on the other side, the purple little mushroom's face darkened, and it made a "tsk" sound.

That gaze... seemed to be sizing up human trash.

Of course, Star eventually responded to them, with a "swish" she flung open San Yue Qi's door.

Upon entering, the sight before her made Filien feel a sour ache in her heart.

Because it was really too beautiful, compared to Dan Heng's flooring just a second ago, it's simply too horrible to behold... so Dan Heng, what kind of miserable life have you been living!!

Girlish decorations could be seen everywhere, pink rabbit stickers were pasted on the walls, a rabbit-shaped chaise held a cute little bear, a crystal chandelier extended from the window to the eye-catching photo wall, and the photos on the wall cycled through, each one a memory of Star and them.

"So beautiful..." Filien's eyes seemed to have stars sparkling, "It's practically just like a princess's room."

Filien had never been to a princess's room, having only seen simple depictions in childhood fairy tale books; now, upon seeing San Yue Qi's room, she felt a sense of imagination matching reality.

And the huge Pam plush placed by the window completely captured her gaze.

Surely no girl would fail to be envious...

"What exquisite pictures, even more lifelike than the best painter of Wei Sa Si Te could paint... I never expected that San Yue Qi would also be a painter."

As Star's gaze lingered on that photo wall, everyone could see the images on the photos more clearly; those nearly perfect one-to-one reproductions of reality made Fu Lian Lian also repeatedly praise without end.

"No, these aren't paintings; don't you see the two objects on the table?" Zan Yin pointed to the two cameras, one pink and one blue, below the photo wall, "I recall that Xiao San Yue had this attached to her waist; these photos must have been made with that device."

"Seems to be called a camera, right?"

"If we could also buy one, then during monster hunts we could capture everyone's heroic poses, and then spread them around; surely many adventurer big sisters would compete to team up with me?" Zan Yin lay on the table, indulging in fantasies.

"With such a miraculous thing, you only think of doing this? Truly hopeless." Fu Lian Lian was speechless.

"By the way, how were these photos taken in the first place? In such a dangerous situation, could San Yue Qi still take photos? Or is it this unimaginable angle?"

"It's also possible that at that moment her head suddenly turned into a camera?"

Forget about the questions you can't figure out; after wandering around San Yue Qi's room once more, Star wandered back to the observation car, only this time the car had San Yue Qi and Dan Heng added, instantly making it lively.

"You're here!" San Yue Qi, completely unaware that Star had toured her bedroom while she was away, excitedly waved and greeted her upon seeing her, "We're about to head to the next stop, aren't you excited? Oh right, this is your first trip, so… it should be double the excitement?"

Star made a SpongeBob sound: "I'm ready, I'm ready!"

"Very good, full of spirit!" Seeing Star Bao's full-of-energy appearance, San Yue Qi was very satisfied and proudly said, "Hehe, when I first made the jump, I was also excited, but now I'm much steadier!"

"Steady?" Star wore an expression of utter disbelief.

"What's with that... I'm now much steadier than before." San Yue Qi feigned anger, puffing her cheeks, "Once you get used to it, you'll be able to become a reliable, mature passenger like me."

"Alright, San Yue Qi passenger, Star passenger, don't run around anymore; please find a suitable spot and sit tight, the train is about to jump." Pam promptly walked over and cautioned, "Once the train drives out of the space station's range, it will jump! Please hold on tight!"
