Chapter 196

"Strange."

And on the "Astral Express," four people can form a Shura field.

With wine and food finished, "guests happy," it was time for the "sad" moment of parting.

The "Astral Express" supplies had been replenished, and in a while, it would depart and set sail.

Asta naturally wouldn't follow the "Astral Express" to roam the star sea.

Standing on the platform, March 7th kept waving goodbye to Asta:

"Station Master Asta, see you next time~"

Others also waved, watching Asta's figure disappear at the end of the passage before returning to the train.

Just back on the train, March 7th walked quickly in front of Bai Xuan, hands on her hips, blocking his path.

With "Stelle" in front and behind, it was a two-sided cheese sandwich.

"Asta, is it?"

"Xiao Bai, is it?"

"Elbow, come into the room with me."

After saying that, she and "Stelle" worked together, one on the left and one on the right, dragging Bai Xuan into the room and locking the door with a "click."

Himeko shook her head with a smile, smiling with gratification:

"Young people, really full of energy."

Two hours later.

"Stelle" finally regained consciousness from a dazed state.

She climbed up slowly, put on her clothes, and looked around, only then realizing she was the only one left in the bedroom.

She stepped tremblingly, getting out of bed, fearing that her legs would go soft and she'd fall to the ground.

A moment later, "Stelle" realized that most of the fatigue on her body had disappeared.

Only some lingering swelling and burning sensations remained, reminding her that everything just now wasn't a dream.

"Stelle" still remembered.

When March 7th locked the door, a strange fluctuation swept through the entire room.

Bai Xuan smiled coldly:

"From now on, no sound will get out of this room."

Afterwards, she and March 7th took turns doing vocal exercises, hitting high notes until they were hoarse and unable to move.

"Stelle's" mind was running fast, and by the time she finished reviewing the whole process, she had already walked out of the bedroom and into the observation car.

The entire observation car was empty; under the warm lights, only Himeko sat on the red sofa, flipping through books and savoring coffee.

Himeko's coffee, if you only savor its aroma with your nose and admire its color with your eyes, is impeccable.

As long as you don't drink it, everything is fine.

"You're awake, Stelle."

Himeko closed the book, looked up at the dazed "Stelle," and called her back to her senses with a soft smile.

At the same time, she joked in her heart:

"Young people, really full of energy."

As a senior who has traveled between stars for who knows how many years, Himeko naturally couldn't be ignorant of the things between men and women.

As long as the whole family doesn't have conflicts and doesn't let each other down, she doesn't care if it's mutual affection, three-way affection, or N-way affection.

"Stelle" nodded:

"Awake, where are they?"

Himeko replied:

"They went to check the relevant information for the next stop."

"Stelle" walked to Himeko's side and asked softly:

"Where will we go for the next stop?"

Himeko patiently introduced the upcoming itinerary:

"Our next destination is a very small planet, numbered 'Jarilo-VI'."

"The train last went there thousands of years ago. According to the records in the archive, it was a lush, very beautiful planet."

"However, long years have passed... perhaps earth-shaking changes have already occurred there."

Thousands of years of time, for the universe, for the galaxy, is but a fleeting moment.

But for a planet, for a civilization, that is an incomparably long time.

Even for the long-lived Xianzhou people, several generations might have changed.

Let alone short-lived species.

Thousands of years have passed, enough for several dynasties to change, and two or three hundred generations of people to pass through the world.

"Stelle" nodded.

The time for departure was near, and Xiao Bai and March 7th would definitely be back soon, so it would be better to just ask them.

Therefore, she sat on the sofa, changed to a comfortable position, and waited for departure.

Therefore, sleepiness and fatigue surged like a tide again.

In a trance, she saw a giant whale glowing all over, roaming in space.

"Universe..."

"Galaxy Train..."

"Aeon..."

"Have I been dragged into some sci-fi movie?"

"This thing called a Stellaron inside my body..."

Her thoughts were as messy as seaweed, spreading and drifting without boundaries.

Suddenly, a big face appeared in front of her.

"Stelle" instantly woke up.

She saw March 7th smiling and asking: "Are you catching stars?"

Her eyes were narrowed into two crescents, with no signs of fatigue at all.

Bai Xuan stood beside her, smiling and watching "Stelle."

She saw this pink-haired girl spin around in front of "Stelle," sit down leisurely, and incidentally place Bai Xuan between her and "Stelle."

"Hehe, this—I've done it too."

"But—what I caught wasn't a star—but a lamp."

"When I first woke up from the ice, I opened my eyes and saw a cluster of starlight—so I instinctively reached out, but it was just the ceiling lamp of the carriage."

"Stelle" tilted her head:

"Everyone surrounding you?"

She looked at Bai Xuan on the side, but saw him shake his head, "I wasn't on the train then."

March 7th laughed "hehe" twice, grabbed Bai Xuan beside her, and recalled calmly:

"Of course, it was like they were observing some strange cosmic creature—but you can't blame them, after all, no one knew what my origin was."

"Yeah, I was sealed in a big block of ice before, drifting in the universe. It was the train that salvaged me."

"Sister Himeko and Mr. Welt and... that someone, thought of a way to melt the ice, and that's how they saved me."

"Stelle" pondered for a moment:

"Do you still remember things from before?"

March 7th shook her head:

"I don't remember at all."

"Just like I said before, I forgot everything about the past."

"Who I am, what I was called before, where I came from... I've forgotten all of these completely. Even the name 'March 7th' was just taken to commemorate the date I was awakened."

"So I'm sticking to the train, following it station by station, maybe I'll be able to find my past."

"Of course, if the star-destroying battleship Station Master Asta mentioned arrives, we can also take the star-destroying battleship!"

"Oh my, why talk about this, it's a mood killer."
