Chapter 229
【Only after Robin spoke did everyone notice that this world-renowned singer's voice seemed to have a slightly strange feeling, and she was silent for a moment.】
【Sunday smiled, skipped over this topic, looked at Aventurine, and said: "Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Aventurine. Please, this way, let's talk elsewhere."】
【Aventurine smiled: "Naturally, but please wait a moment."】
【Aventurine walked in front of Stelle and said in a rather relaxed tone: "Hi, friend, are you okay? I was just joking earlier, I hope you don't mind."】
【Stelle shook her head and said: "It's okay, I don't mind."】
【Aventurine seemed to want to express his apology and said: "I apologize for my rudeness. Take it, 10,000 credits—a little meeting gift, consider it my compensation."】
【Stelle hesitated slightly but still politely declined the meeting gift, saying: "Thank you, but I don't need the gift."】
【Aventurine praised: "Integrity, I like it! I've decided to make you my friend—take it, 20,000 credits!"】
【After stuffing 20,000 credits into Stelle's hand, Aventurine said: "I have things to do, I'll be going first. I believe we will meet again soon."】
【Afterwards, Aventurine left the lobby with Sunday.】
Live Stream Room.
"This... although Aventurine's personality is a bit uncomfortable..."
"But he is quite generous."
"After all, he is a high-level executive of the IPC, he can afford this amount of credits."
"To be honest, I have a friend who also wants to be Aventurine's friend. Is there a way?"
"Is this friend you're talking about yourself?"
Where the Astral Express crew is located.
March 7th sighed and said: "This Aventurine, I really can't understand what kind of person he is."
Welt Yang said calmly: "From his appearance earlier and his conversation with Himeko, it can be seen that he is a qualified and shrewd businessman who will fight for his own interests within the scope of all seemingly reasonable means."
"These 20,000 credits should be Aventurine's advance investment."
Stelle was a bit confused: "Investment?"
Dan Heng said: "Do you remember the previous speculation? Aventurine intends to get involved with the Express crew."
"If Aventurine really has relevant plans, he will definitely find us again later, or, find you, Stelle."
Somewhere in the universe.
Aventurine watched the content on the live stream and smiled silently. As himself, he naturally knew what Aventurine in the plot intended to do, but well...
"This is fine too. Let me see what interesting things are hidden in this Penacony."
【Afterwards, Robin took the Astral Express crew to a lounge to talk.】
【Welt Yang asked: "Are you, like Mr. Sunday, a member of the Penacony Family?"】
【Robin smiled and shook her head, saying: "To tell you the truth, I am a guest just like you all. Penacony is my hometown, but I left after growing up. This time, I am honored to be invited back to sing a song for the 【Charmony Festival】."】
【"The Sunday you mentioned is my brother, one of the local decision-makers in Penacony, and also the organizer of this 【Charmony Festival】. He heard that you were in trouble, so he brought me here to provide help."】
【Speaking of this, Robin apologized: "It's a pity that I was still late, giving you all a bad check-in experience. I am truly sorry."】
【At this moment, Sunday returned and walked to Robin's side, saying: "Please rest assured, I have instructed Miss Aili to resolve the 【system failure】 as soon as possible—and give you all a miracle room type as compensation. The hotel will arrange suitable rooms for you later."】
Live Stream Room.
"This Mr. Sunday's way of doing things is really refreshing. He just upgraded the room?"
"After all, he is one of the decision-makers in Penacony, he has that much power."
"Compared to Aventurine, Mr. Sunday's impression is indeed much better."
"And he is also Miss Robin's brother, hehehe."
"The person above, what do you mean? Your laugh is a bit creepy, don't be like this."
【"Mr. Aventurine has an appointment with the 【Oak Family】 and has already checked in. I apologize to everyone on the Astral Express on his behalf and look forward to working with you in the future."】
【Welt Yang nodded: "Thank you for your willingness to mediate. However, is it inappropriate to upgrade the room type for us alone? As far as I know, there should be quite a few other guests who received invitations."】
【Sunday's expression was sincere, indicating it was fine. His voice was gentle and refined, making people feel good about him: "Don't worry, the Family will be responsible for communicating. You all have come to Penacony, and as the actual managers, we should naturally solve your problems."】
【"Sorry for taking up your precious time, we won't disturb you anymore. If you need anything in Penacony, the Family is always at your service."】
【Robin also blessed: "May you all have a wonderful time in the dream."】
【After Sunday and Robin finished speaking, they took their leave.】
【Only the train crew remained in this lounge. March 7th sighed and said: "Sigh, it's really full of twists and turns. Since that Mr. Sun... Sunday has given his word, we can finally check in normally, right?"】
【Stelle was a bit curious about Sunday's naming style and said: "Are the Family's names all so strange?"】
【March 7th explained: "That should just be a stage name... right?"】
【Unfortunately, by the end, even March 7th wasn't sure herself.】
【Himeko nodded: "I think so too. This should be some kind of rule in Penacony or the Family."】
【After a brief laugh, Himeko said to everyone: "Alright, there's no one queuing at the lobby now, let's go find Miss Aili..."】
【Everyone came to the front desk and found Miss Aili. They saw Aili apologize: "Distinguished guests of the Astral Express, the check-in procedures have been completed. I am very sorry for the inconvenience caused earlier."】
【As Aili spoke, she handed something to everyone and said: "This is your 【Dreamscape Passport】—it is the room key for the hotel guest rooms, and it also integrates all the functional information you need in the 【Reverie Hotel】, and provides intelligent assistance."】
【"At the same time, it is also a special Penacony souvenir, unique and belonging only to you!"】
【"You can make good use of the 【Check-in】 function provided by the Dreamscape Passport to record every bit of your time in the sweet dream, harvest various joys, and create your own exclusive 【Dreamscape Handbook】—"】
【"For specific usage methods, the Dreamscape Passport will also provide you with complete guidance."】
【Finally, Aili pointed to the side and said: "May you all enjoy the sweet dream in Penacony to the fullest. You can reach the guest rooms by taking the elevator over there."】
【March 7th said excitedly: "Yay—let's set off now!"】
【Taking the elevator, everyone arrived at the upper floor.】
【March 7th's tone was full of anticipation: "The world in the dream... I heard that Penacony turned the dreamscape into a magnificent metropolis..."】
【"What will it look like? I'm so looking forward to it~"】
Live Stream Room.
"I'm looking forward to it too. Although the previous concert was also held in the dreamscape, we were all sitting in our seats, mainly focusing on enjoying the music. This time, even if I can't go to Penacony, I must take a good look at the magnificent scenery of Penacony here."
"Me too. You guys went to the dreamscape concert last time, but I only watched the live stream from the outside."
"Anyway, in this way, we can be considered people who have seen Penacony and the sweet dream world."
【Arriving in the hall outside the hotel room, Himeko also let out a sigh of relief and said to everyone: "We finally arrived. Everyone, go back to your rooms and put down your luggage first."】
【After Stelle and March 7th left, Himeko said to Welt Yang: "Welt, shall we have a drink? Penacony's 【SoulGlad】 is very famous."】
【Welt Yang listened to Himeko's words and pondered: "... Go ahead, we might be thinking about the same thing."】
Live Stream Room.
"??????"
"What's the situation? Did I miss a plot?"
"Is it possible that we are too stupid?"
"Uh... although it might be a fact, there's no need to say it so clearly!"
"It should be that Himeko and Welt Yang noticed something in their previous encounters, right?"
"Noticed what? Could it be that Miss Robin's voice was a bit strange?"
"Maybe she caught a cold?"
