Chapter 182

~7 min read 1,273 words

Robin: "No wonder I have no impression of this little brother Little Misha; it turns out he... doesn't exist for real at all..."

The video continues.

【It seems you have remembered everything.】

Himeko nodded,

knowing that the truth was finally about to be completely revealed.

【Wait, wait, wait, what's with this feeling that everyone except me has a tacit understanding?】

March 7th looked at the tacit atmosphere on the scene,

still somewhat lost.

【That's right, only you are still being kept in the dark.】

Stelle teased March 7th.

Stelle: "March, look at your dazed look."

Stelle: "This is about to be laid out on the table, and you still haven't reacted?"

March 7th: "Who... who hasn't reacted!!"

March 7th: "Isn't this just me being lost in the situation?"

March 7th: "Look at me now, am I not not lost at all?"

Paimon: "Hmm... I can understand Miss March 7th's feelings."

Paimon: "If it were Paimon, I would probably be dizzy and unclear about the situation now."

Ying: "Miss March 7th should have been surprised by this series of news."

Ying: "That's why she didn't react immediately."

Furina: "We got too much information from the video, and we were able to discuss it, which is why we analyzed it relatively accurately."

Furina: "But if it were like March 7th and the others in the video finding the answer bit by bit themselves, they would definitely be dizzy too."

March 7th: "That's what I'm saying!"

March 7th: "You guys are the ones who know how to be considerate!"

The video continues.

【Little March, do you remember Stelle mentioned earlier that there is a Clockie that only she can see?】

Seeing that March 7th still didn't understand the situation,

Himeko asked back immediately.

【I remember, isn't it the one next to us?】

【But in the Dreamflux Reef, didn't we all see it, and Mr. Yang also greeted it?】

Upon hearing this,

March 7th looked at the grinning Clockie next to her.

【It seems everyone on the Astral Express is very innocent!】

Clockie said happily.

【The answer is the Astral Express.】

【Stelle's experience proves that at least Miss Firefly and Miss Huang Quan cannot see this Clockie.】

【And in the Dreamflux Reef, I wonder if you noticed that everyone except the Express crew... subtly did not have any dialogue with it.】

Himeko pointed out a key discovery.

【I also noticed.】

Stelle nodded,

indicating that she also noticed this detail.

【A memetic lifeform that only specific people can see is simply like... a secret letter left by someone to the Nameless.】

Firefly: "Ah???"

Firefly: "So I can't see Clockie, not because I'm not innocent, straightforward, and innocent enough?"

Firefly: "But... only members of the Express crew can see it?"

Firefly: "Hmm... then I'm relieved."

Stelle: "What kind of high-tech encrypted lifeform."

Stelle: "Only specific people can see it?"

Stelle: "Senior Mikhail's methods are outrageous, right?"

March 7th: "So... this Clockie is actually the inheritance Mikhail left for us?"

Himeko: "I think... it should only be a part of it."

Welt: "This Clockie's ability is not simple; Stelle's Clockwork trick has already proven it."

Welt: "And what kind of ability is this?"

Welt: "And why did Mikhail create a Clockie?"

Welt: "I hope we can get the answers to these puzzles next."

The video continues.

【But if so, can't little Little Misha also see Clockie?】

【They are even good partners who grew up together, but Little Misha hasn't embarked on the Path of Trailblaze yet...】

March 7th still didn't react.

【This is the key to the mystery, little March.】

【Now, try to recall again...】

【Just like Clockie, have you seen anyone other than the Express crew interact with Little Misha?】

Himeko prompted again.

【...】

【No way...】

March 7th finally understood,

and couldn't help but exclaim.

【The answer is just like that, Miss March 7th.】

【This Dream Bubble is the cradle where I was born; I... am a dreamer no different from a Memetic Zone Meme.】

【I should have stayed in the Dream Bubble waiting for everyone to visit, but reality and memory overlapped, making me unconsciously push the door out and leave here with Clockie.】

Little Misha explained.

【So the Dream Bubble left by the Clockmaker was empty, not because there was no content, but because... the content left on its own?】

【The whistle you heard was the sound of the train arriving at Penacony?】

Miss Qingque: "The things in the Dream Bubble ran away on their own legs..."

Miss Qingque: "Hey, this is really outrageous!"

Stelle: "Then why can't those Trashcan people run out of the Dream Bubble?"

Stelle: "If they could run out too, how good would that be!!"

Sparkle: "Hey, little grey-hair, I can see that you are very obsessed with that Dream Bubble of mine~"

Sparkle: "How about I customize a new Trashcan Dream Bubble for you next time?"

Sparkle: "Guaranteed to be exciting~"

Stelle: "Sparkle, I have to say, you understand me!"

Stelle: "I love Trashcans the most!!"

Stelle: "Of course, if there were more gold trash, that would be even better!"

Stelle: "But one thing, I don't want to see Sampo's disgusting arrogant face again!"

Sampo: "Hey, sister, saying that really breaks my old Sampo's heart!"

Stelle: "Laugh to death, a Masked Fool like you will be sad?"

Stelle: "If you were really sad, Aha would laugh out loud!"

Sampo: "Ah, this..."

Sparkle: "Make a Masked Fool sad?"

Sparkle: "Wonderful, that's a good idea~"

Sampo: "?"

Sampo: "What do you want to do?"

Sampo: "Are you going to attack your own people?"

Sparkle: "Hey, looking for fun, does it matter if they are your own people or not?"

Sparkle: "Why, don't you think this is a very fun thing~"

Sampo: "I only know that I, old Sampo, don't want to be this sad Masked Fool."

Sparkle: "Hehe, this matter, you don't have the final say~"

Sparkle: "Sparkle-sama has the final say~"

The video continues.

【This is indeed one interpretation.】

【But there should be a longer story behind it.】

【I think, let him explain the ins and outs, the confusing and difficult parts himself...】

【Why not start with your name?】

【Now, how should we call you, Little Misha, or...】

Himeko said this,

and stopped talking,

looking at Little Misha.

【Thank you all for helping me find back this long journey; let me re-introduce myself.】

【I was born on Rusalka in the Prethmir system, the adopted son of navigator Mr. Mikhail and Mrs. Char.】

【The two old people gave me a treasure, a name that carried their hopeful message—】

【Ragwock Char Mikhail, or more simply... Little Misha.】

【If you wish, it is not impossible to use the name people are more familiar with—the Clockmaker—to call me.】

After recalling all the memories,

Little Misha had an extra air of composure and confidence,

and towards the Express crew,

re-introduced his identity.

【So, you are the Clockmaker himself?!】

Although there was some speculation,

but hearing Little Misha say it himself,

March 7th still felt very surprised!

【It's a pity that the dream tycoon everyone yearned for is long gone; I am just a microcosm of his life.】

【And the child who has accompanied everyone until now is the ignorant protagonist of his childhood dream—Clockie's good friend, a young apprentice, a future train mechanic...】

【At the same time, it is also the starting point of his lifelong Trailblaze.】

【At the end of life's journey, I left this precious flame in the deepest dream, hoping to hand it over to the Nameless of future generations.】

【But somehow, it ran out of the Dream Bubble on its own, and forgot all its missions.】

【Sorry, I really let everyone see a joke.】
