~6 min read 1,106 words

【In the game screen, Stelle is still a bit confused by the conversation between Aventurine and Boothill just now.】

【Hearing this, Boothill sighs, no longer hiding it, and says: "Forget it, honest people don't speak in riddles, I'll just say it: I have a grudge against an Interastral Peace Corporation executive named Oswald Schneider, and this flashy guy can help me find him."】

【Aventurine seems a bit emotional, saying: "The feud between the Strategic Investment Department and the IPC is known throughout the galaxy, but I really didn't expect that even the Galaxy Rangers would have the chance to get involved."】

【"It seems... things are about to get interesting."】

Livestream room.

"Ah! Am I ill-informed? Is the relationship between the Market Development Department and the Strategic Investment Department like this?"

"You are indeed ill-informed. Although I don't know the feud between these two departments, it is true that the relationship between the Market Development Department and the Strategic Investment Department is hard to describe."

"Could it be related to departmental performance, a competitive relationship?"

"Cough cough cough, insider news, not yet verified: I heard the main reason is because the head of the Strategic Investment Department, Diamond, and the head of the Market Development Department, Oswald Schneider, are both candidates for the Board of Directors, and they are fighting for the spot."

"Although it's unverified insider news, it strangely makes a lot of sense."

"However, in this way, Aventurine and Boothill working together is not just a private grudge, but also fits the position he is in, combining public and private interests. Double the happiness."

【Subsequently, after parting ways with Aventurine and Boothill, Stelle met Dr. Ratio again.】

【Judging from their conversation, it seems they had already met before Penacony.】

【Looking at Stelle's figure, Dr. Ratio says calmly: "Oh? I remember you. Your performance in 【Herta's】 space station... was basically passing."】

【Speaking of this, Dr. Ratio seems to smile and says: "Heh, no wonder that gambler values you so much."】

【Looking at Ratio, Stelle is also a bit surprised and says: "I didn't even know you came too."】

【Dr. Ratio says calmly: "The Intelligentsia Guild sent me to proctor the IPC's envoys. Hmph, just a task from the administrative office."】

【"Alright, isn't the Charmony Festival about to start? Opportunity is rare, go ahead. Only by balancing work and rest can you better absorb knowledge."】

【More interestingly, is Dr. Ratio's evaluation of Aventurine: ——】

【"The IPC and the Guild's administrative staff define us as 【strategic partners】. But in my opinion, I can only ever play the role of 【teacher】, while he is the 【student】, just like you and everyone else."】

【"From this perspective, Aventurine is not a good student, but he is definitely not a blockhead. It's a pity that the void in his heart can never be filled by talent and knowledge...】

. May he not become a philosophical zombie."】

Livestream room.

"The Trailblazer and the adopted father also know each other, how much content have I missed?"

"Is it possible that we all missed it?"

"Damn it, Su Chen, you old thief, when are you going to release this story?"

"Yeah, I'm very curious, not just about Dr. Ratio, but also Topaz. I feel like I missed a billion."

"However, the evaluation from Dr. Ratio actually shocked me a bit. So Dr. Ratio affirms the Trailblazer so much."

"Uh... I don't understand, is passing considered a high affirmation?"

"You can tell at a glance that this is a guy who hasn't carefully listened to the adopted father's voice lines."

"Voice lines? I listened to a bit, but I felt the voice lines were scolding me, so I didn't continue watching."

"I have no words for what you said."

"A little bit of popular science: Dr. Ratio's grading starts from negative points. Being able to get a passing grade is already quite outstanding."

"Hahaha, that's true."

"However, I have to say, Dr. Ratio is truly worthy of his name. His cognition and understanding of Aventurine are simply precise and accurate."

"Sigh~ an unfortunate childhood needs a lifetime to compensate for. I hope Aventurine can be more open-minded after the events in Penacony."

"I feel like I like Dr. Ratio even more."

"Very normal. Although Dr. Ratio's words are very hurtful, he truly points out your flaws and shortcomings, giving you a chance to correct them. Sometimes, if you want to progress, you have to use this kind of extreme operation."

"I think compared to those honey-mouthed, sword-hearted people, Dr. Ratio is more likable. Although sometimes you will be scolded by him until you have no face to see anyone, judging from Dr. Ratio's task information, he is definitely a noble person."

The place where the Astral Express crew is.

March 7th looks at Stelle and asks confusedly: "Eh? When did you get to know Professor Ratio?"

Stelle also says with a confused face: "I don't know?"

Welt Yang adjusts his glasses, looks at the plot in the game, and says: "I guess, is it a situation similar to Topaz? Perhaps we will learn more details later."

【After parting ways with Dr. Ratio, Stelle met Topaz, who was teasing her pet, Numby.】

【Seeing Stelle arrive, Topaz smiles and says: "Oh, isn't this Stelle? How long has it been, we meet again. How have you been lately?"】

【Numby on the side also greets her with grunts.】

【Clearly, like Dr. Ratio, Topaz and Stelle at this time are also old acquaintances.】

【However, because she had learned relevant content from Topaz before, she wasn't too surprised.】

【Stelle thinks about the turmoil in Penacony along the way, can't help but sigh, and says: "Exhausted."】

【Topaz smiles and says: "Haha, I guessed as much! I heard you guys pulled off a big stunt, taking down the Oak Family along with everything else."】

【"It's a pity I couldn't be there at the time, otherwise I definitely would have helped you out."】

【"Look how lively it is on this ship, really nice. When I'm not busy one day, I'll also hold a big party on the ecological ship, and I'll definitely invite you guys then."】

【Stelle nods, then seems to remember something, shows a somewhat embarrassed look, and asks coyly: "I also want to ask you a question... can you transform too?"】

【Topaz says somewhat confusedly: "Trans... form? What are you talking about?"】

Livestream room.

"Hahahaha, Stelle must have remembered that battle with Aventurine."

"Hey, don't say that, Aventurine's transformation is truly cool enough to shatter the heavens."

"That goes without saying, I even took screenshots at the time."

"I don't really understand, is transforming very interesting?"

"Hehehe, I see you don't understand at all."
