Chapter 137

~5 min read 809 words

Hua Huo: "That's not just innocent~"

Hua Huo: "So innocent they've been led around by the nose by every faction out there~"

Hua Huo: "And we usually call people like that… fools~"

Hua Huo: "Hehehe, what a poor little gray furball~"

Xing: "Damn it!! Who are you calling a fool?! Try saying it again!"

Sang Bo: "Hey, sis, even though what she said sounds pretty harsh…"

Sang Bo: "But it seems like that's actually the truth…"

Servant: "Correct."

Servant: "Young Lady Xing has been following others' rhythm from start to finish."

Servant: "Extremely passive."

Zhong Li: "But this isn't because Young Lady Xing isn't smart enough."

Zhong Li: "It's because too many people want to use her."

Wen Di: "Moreover, all these people are prominent figures."

Wen Di: "Whoever was in her place would struggle to come out unscathed."

Xing: "Wahhh… Hearing you say it like this, I feel so wronged!"

Xing: "Why does everyone want to use me!! Play with my feelings so carelessly!"

Xing: "Can't you all just share the love a little? Go use someone else instead? (Crying loudly. jpg)"

Kafka: "Listen… don't cry. Who made you the one who happens to be the most special?"

Kafka: "But… I believe in you. You'll make the right choice."

Silver Wolf: "Count me in—I believe in you too."

March 7th: "Huh? How come it sounds like Xing is your ally?"

March 7th: "Xing is one of us—part of the Stellaron Express family! We're the ones who believe in her!"

Welt: "Mm, I also believe Xing won't be crushed so easily!"

Himeko: "This is just a small setback on the path of exploration. Xing is an outstanding Nameless Traveler—she'll overcome every obstacle."

Dan Heng: "No matter what, I believe in her!"

Pam: "Don't be sad, don't be downhearted—Star Passenger is the best, Pam!"

Liu Ying: "Xing, you can do it!"

Xing: "Okay okay!! Thank you all for the encouragement! I feel fired up again!"

The video continues.

【I'm back, both of you.】

【Xing, Miss Himeko has something she wants to tell you…】

【There's bad news—and good news.】

Black Swan returned to their side,

and pulled out a dream bubble,

handing it to Xing.

Then, Xing pressed the dream bubble against her forehead.

And she saw this scene.

In the vision, Himeko and March 7th were together,

blocked by their family.

Black Swan stood beside them, yet the family members acted as if they saw nothing.

【I understand the situation. Please ensure Xing is evacuated to a safe location.】

【If possible, investigate Liu Ying first.】

【We'll regroup at the Clock Boy statue later.】

A voice came from the vision,

Himeko speaking to Black Swan.

After these words ended,

the dream bubble's vision ceased.

【So, I've been entrusted by Miss Himeko to bring you two back to reality.】

【Xing… I'm glad to see you're safe. Let's go—talk once we're in a secure place.】

Seeing Xing lower the dream bubble,

Black Swan smiled.

【Miss Black Swan, aren't you going to open a… portal or something?】

Huang Quan suddenly spoke up.

【Hmm… I don't recommend that.】

【Her mental state is still unstable—we must avoid that kind of 'rough' movement again.】

【And—while evacuating, we can still do more for Miss Liu Ying, can't we?】

【There are still traces of her left nearby.】

【Let them become your memories before they vanish completely.】

Black Swan shook her head, rejecting Huang Quan's suggestion,

and proposed searching for traces left by Liu Ying.

【.... If we can investigate along the way, so much the better.】

Huang Quan nodded in agreement.

【Let's go, we'll have to find another way.......】

Black Swan turned around, about to lead the two away.

【Sorry, could you give me a few more minutes?】

【I.... still have one unfinished thing.】

Huang Quan called out to the two,

then turned and walked to the place where Firefly had just dissolved into a bubble of light,

and made some gestures only she herself could understand.

【May death end your long dream.....】

【And guide you back to.... the waking world.】

【Phew.... let's go...】

Huang Quan turned back to the two,

a trace of sorrow lingering on her face.

Stelle's heart clenched sharply along with it.

【This way—please follow me.】

Black Swan didn't know how to offer comfort,

so she could only take the lead and leave.

Huang Quan said nothing, following close beside Black Swan.

And Stelle, lagging a few steps behind,

saw something at the spot where Firefly had died,

it was half a phone on the verge of fading away,

with an unsent message still lingering on the screen....

It was a photo of two people together....

The two in the picture were smiling very happily... very happily....

Stelle felt a pang in her heart looking at it,

and couldn't help picking up the phone.

However, the moment the phone reached her hand......

it dissolved into a dream bubble and vanished completely......
