~8 min read 1,496 words

【Jade looks at Firefly, revealing a mysterious smile, seemingly not worried about the bad result in Firefly's mouth, and says slowly: "Because in general... we are 【the same kind】."】

【In the game screen, at this moment, several figures with different postures appear. In the screen, a dazzling diamond emits a dazzling light.】

【Other figures, except for the most obvious Jade, and the relatively familiar Topaz and Aventurine, other silhouettes can only see a rough outline, making it difficult to truly confirm their identities.】

【However, the only thing that is certain is that they are all 【Ten Stonehearts】 who follow Diamond.】

【Only hearing Jade's voice say slowly: "But unlike the Stellaron Hunters and the Astral Express, we gather together... just to get what we need."】

【"Ten people have their own paths, and also their own destinations. And on a section of this road, we were invited by 【Diamond】 to walk with him."】

【"This road can be very short, or very long. Because each of us has a void 【ambition】 in our hearts, which can only be filled by external things."】

【"And 【Diamond】, he gave a promise—to divide the power of the 【Preservation】 Emanator into ten, and fill the void with 【Cornerstones】."】

【"(【Flesh is weak】, and my heart is as firm as glowing stone. If not so, then the 【Preservation】 path cannot stand.)"】

【"So do you understand? This is not just a vow, but the pawn we 【Ten People】 handed over. We exchange it for opportunity, wealth, continuation, tomorrow..."】

【"And everything they exchange will make the 【Stone Heart】 more indestructible, and in the 【War of Gods】 that will eventually come, realize the great cause of 【Preservation】 【Diamond】."】

The Luo Fu Xianzhou.

In the teahouse where players gather.

"My god, is this a group photo of the Ten Stonehearts?"】

"God, what kind of group photo..."

"But this should indeed be the first full appearance of the Ten Stonehearts, although except for Jade, Aventurine, and Topaz, the others are all blurry silhouettes."】

"You forgot there is also 【Diamond】?"】

"Good grief, 【Diamond】 is directly a diamond."】

"Listening to Jade introduce the relationship between the Ten Stonehearts, it really fits the IPC's style. Although it cannot be said that there is no friendship between them as companions..."】

"Hehehe, but looking at the silhouettes, I feel that the Ten Stonehearts are all quite handsome."】

"Handsome is really handsome, dangerous is also really dangerous. At least the three Ten Stonehearts who appeared, I feel that Aventurine and Topaz are slightly friendlier."】

"Aventurine is friendly? I'm afraid you forgot what Aventurine looked like at the beginning of the Penacony plot."】

"Hahaha, but isn't it because we didn't understand Aventurine? Now it seems it was just a layout, and it didn't hurt innocent people."】

"Put that way, Aventurine is indeed friendly."】

Where the Astral Express crew is located.

March 7th looks at the figures of the Ten Stonehearts appearing in the game screen and says quickly: "Record it, record it, let me take a screenshot."】

Stelle looks at March 7th's actions and asks in confusion: "What are you doing?"】

March 7th giggles and says: "Hehe... the Ten Stonehearts are big shots. I'll record their silhouettes, so I can recognize them quickly if I see them later."】

Following Dan Heng shakes his head helplessly and says: "I don't think this might necessarily be used, but... forget it..."】

【In the game story, after listening to Jade's words, Firefly is slightly silent, and then says with a calm expression: "... I understand."】

【Watching Firefly not responding to the previous question, Jade doesn't urge her, smiling: "Go, child, you don't have to give an answer immediately. As I said, the thing I am best at is waiting."】

【Firefly nods slightly and says solemnly: "If fate really turns that page, we will naturally meet again."】

【Subsequently, she sighs slightly and says: "But I am very sorry, this pawnshop cannot give me what I want. My last attempt in Penacony... can only end with 【hope】."】

【Saying that, Firefly doesn't stay here, walks towards the outside of the room, and after passing the door, the mechanical detective Walker seen before also came here.】

【Clearly, at this time, the Detective Walker who got what he wanted also came here to pay his price.】

Where the Astral Express crew is located.

March 7th flashes a look of unbearable in her eyes and says: "Sigh, really, seeing this screen, my heart is really filled with mixed emotions, Detective Walker he..."】

Welt Yang sighs and says helplessly: "Between gain and loss, perhaps only the parties involved can experience it."】

Following Dan Heng sighs: "Perhaps for that Detective Walker, being able to bring the criminal to justice can be considered worth it."】

Stelle's heart is congested, her expression low: "That Detective Walker spent twenty-two years chasing that heinous criminal, he should be a good person, right? But why would a good person end up like this?"】

Welt Yang adjusts his glasses, looks at Stelle and says: "Yeah, good people shouldn't have such an ending."】

【"But compared to the entire galaxy, we are ultimately too small. There is too much injustice in the world. All we can do is do our best to do what is in front of us."】

【In the game screen, at this moment, it comes to Stelle here.】

【Only hearing Stelle standing on the deck, secretly thinking: (The meeting that decided Penacony's future went much smoother than imagined... it ended with almost no debate.)】

【Clearly, Stelle had already met Himeko before and knew the negotiation results between the IPC and the Family.】

【Since there was no worry for the time being, Stelle also looked forward to the distance and said: "The opening ceremony of the Charmony Festival should be starting soon, let's go to the scene and see."】

【Thinking of the experiences of gambling with the mechanical man and teasing the origami birds, Stelle reveals a satisfied smile and thinks: (There are quite a few treasures on this airship, a fruitful harvest...)】

【Stelle was originally prepared to go to the stage of the Charmony Festival, but when passing the bar, she saw two acquaintances.】

【I see Aventurine's projection and Boothill standing in front of the bar counter, seemingly talking happily.】

The livestream room.

"Phew~ finally seeing these two, it's really good that there was no conflict."】

"After all, listening to Boothill's words, with Aventurine's intelligence, he also understood that Boothill is clearly a natural ally."】

"Oswald Schneider, the head of the Strategic Investment Department, but the things involving Aventurine and Boothill's hometown at that time could be described as too numerous to record."

"What a 'too numerous to record'. Since there is a common enemy, looking at this appearance, Aventurine should have reached some kind of cooperation transaction with Boothill."】

"Hmm, I heard that Oswald Schneider is a former Nameless on the Express's record. To be honest, when I first knew this, I was shocked. How could such a person be a Nameless?"】

"So it is 【former Nameless】. You know, although Mikhail, Tiernan, and Razalina are also called former Nameless, in Pom-Pom's place, they are still true Nameless, without the word 【former】."】

"Do you remember a dream bubble experienced at Dr. Edward's? In the dream bubble memory, even Pom-Pom, who scolded Akivili, only called Aha, who blew the Astral Express into two sections, the worst Nameless, and didn't kick him out of the Nameless list."】

"Yeah, put that way, I also noticed it. Even such bad behavior is only the worst Nameless, but Oswald Schneider is indeed 【former Nameless】. One can imagine how unpleasant this head of the Market Development Department is."】

【In the game screen, watching the figures of Aventurine's projection and Boothill, Stelle walks up curiously to say hello.】

【Looking at Aventurine, Boothill uses a warning tone: "... Don't forget, I can shoot you dead at any time."】

【Listening to Boothill's words, Aventurine laughs, not caring, or rather worried: "That would be my honor... what I hate most is cheating at the gambling table."】

【Boothill snorts coldly: "Hmph... you'd better be."】

【At this time, Aventurine and Boothill also see Stelle's arrival.】

【Aventurine reveals his usual smile: "Look, who is here? The great hero of the Astral Express, the most dazzling Trailblazer lady in all of Penacony now!"】

Where the Astral Express crew is located.

Stelle hears Aventurine's words in the plot, and suddenly smiles, her eyes narrowing, saying: "Hahaha, he praised me~"】

March 7th rolls her eyes at Stelle and says: "Praise is praise, is it worth being so happy?"】

Suddenly, March 7th pauses, reveals a wicked smile, looks at Stelle and says: "Speaking of which, do you remember how Aventurine praised Sunday at the beginning? 【The most handsome man in Penacony】, and later how he said it..."】

Stelle hears this, thinking of the various titles and nicknames Aventurine had for Sunday in the previous plot—】

【The guy in the gray suit...】

【Shameless hypocrite.】

【Wing-head.】

【Wing-headed bastard.】

Thinking of this, Stelle's face stiffens, secretly hoping that she won't follow in Sunday's footsteps, referring to nicknames.】
