Chapter 905

After the platform disappeared from sight, Lu Mian observed the situation in the carriage.

The seats were made of wood, the windows were narrow, and the lighting was insufficient. Other passengers seemed to be communicating, but there was no sound, as if they were performing a pantomime.

Jenna and Anthony, who were experiencing similar things for the first time, were also examining everything around them quietly. Ludwig was eating illusory delicious snacks painfully and intently. Franca's emotions were relatively low, leaning against the carriage, looking at the scenery outside:

Large pastures and lush fields receded rapidly, mixed with old castles and classical villages, beautiful as if they were an oil painting.

Gradually, Franca saw palaces made of frost, houses flying above the clouds, and pairs of crystal shoes dancing on the square in the distance...

The scene outside the steam train began to become dreamy, as if fairy tales were intertwined.

Not long after, this iron-black steam train drove into the mist, and it was no longer clear what was outside the window.

Lu Mian, Franca, and the others instinctively gripped the lucky gold coin in their hands, none of them spoke, maintaining silence, worried that extra movements would lead to their inability to enter Mr. 'Fool''s dream.

In the thick, dream-like mist, the iron-black steam train driving out of fantasy moved forward rapidly with a clattering sound.

I don't know when, Lu Mian felt that the clattering sound of the train wheels hitting the rail joints became smaller and smaller, until it disappeared.

Suddenly, a female voice rang in their ears:

"Does anyone want it?

"Boxed meals, snacks, ice cream, drinks, specialties, beef jerky..."

Franca sat up straight, her expression both astonished and bewildered.

She stood up abruptly, turned her body, looked at the entrance of this carriage, and saw a woman wearing a white shirt, a purple-red skirt, and a purple-red small soft hat pushing a metal multi-layer cart, approaching them.

On that cart, colorful things, drinks in strange bottles, and boxed meals stacked together were placed in layers.

This... Franca's gaze instinctively swept to both sides of the multi-layer cart, finding that the passengers who were originally just phantoms had become very clear. They were wearing the clothes that often appeared in her dreams, or playing with mobile phones of different brands quietly, or communicating with companions in low voices, and occasionally the crying of children sounded.

This is the scene Franca dreamed of seeing again, but encountering it on such an occasion made her shudder and feel inexplicable fear.

This, this is Mr. 'Fool''s dream?

"What's wrong?" Lu Mian followed and stood up, asking in a low voice.

He had already discovered that the carriage had changed, and even the seats and backrests had become soft, as if wrapped in thick cotton dyed blue.

He also noticed that the dress style, speaking style, and other aspects of those passengers were significantly different from them.

But this was not the reason for Franca's drastic change in expression.

This is a dream, it's not strange to encounter anything!

Franca's lips moved a few times, looked back at Anthony, who was sitting in the row in front with Ludwig, lowered her voice, and said to Lu Mian and Jenna:

"It's exactly the same as the similar scene in my world..."

Lu Mian immediately understood why Franca had such a performance just now. He said in a tone that this was nothing:

"Have you forgotten Xuanhuang Tianzun?

"She also comes from that world. Isn't it normal for scenes corresponding to her to appear in a dream she participates in?"

"That's true..." Franca revealed a self-deprecating smile. "I was too excited, too afraid, and ignored this point."

Indeed, this is very normal!

This is also the dream where that Xuanhuang Tianzun is sleeping!

Jenna also stood up, looked left and right for a few seconds, and said:

"In other words, we have entered Mr. 'Fool''s dream?"

While speaking, she spread out her right palm and found that there was an extra ticket under the shiny lucky gold coin, on which was written:

"Ningbei - Yangdu"

Although Jenna only recognized the numbers on the ticket, it didn't prevent her from understanding the meaning of those strange characters. Similarly, the passengers sitting on the other side of the aisle also understood their Intis language, looked at them suspiciously, but after noticing their strange clothes, they seemed to think it was normal, so they took back their gaze.

—According to Lady 'Magician''s previous explanation, in Mr. 'Fool''s dream, there is no need to worry about language barriers or not understanding characters. This is essentially communicating with Mr. 'Fool''s subconscious, and Mr. 'Fool' masters all languages.

Of course, being able to intuitively read the meaning of strange characters doesn't mean being able to understand them deeply. Jenna had worried about this problem before, but Lady 'Magician' told them not to worry. Now, Jenna finally understood why Lady 'Magician' didn't care about this problem:

These characters are recognized by Franca, and she can act as the most reliable translator!

"It should be," Lu Mian put away the lucky gold coin cautiously, just holding the ticket.

Jenna noticed that other passengers could understand their words, so she asked Franca in a very low voice:

"What are those people holding in their hands?"

Very strange appearance...

Lu Mian immediately used the "Bottle of Fiction" with the window as a support, included the two rows of seats where they were located, but made the barrier appear transparent.

Franca was instantly full of energy, completely forgetting the previous disappointment and shock, and introduced with a smile:

"That's a mobile phone, a product of scientific development. It integrates telegraph communication, drama performance, mirror letter transmission, and other effects. It also has more functions you can't imagine. I'll get a few later and teach you how to use them in detail. It's too difficult to explain clearly now!"

As she spoke, Franca was full of pride:

"That's a t-shirt, that's jeans, that's sneakers..."

She had just said this when Ludwig was already shouting:

"I want a boxed meal, I want snacks, I want ice cream, I want drinks, I want beef jerky!"

The little boy swallowed saliva, completely forgetting the fact that the food in the dream was fake.

"Uh, Lady 'Magician' told us to try to abide by the law," Franca looked at Lu Mian. "I remember there is cash in the official document bag given by Lady 'Justice'."

Lu Mian opened the official document bag, extracted a stack of brand-new, red banknotes, and lifted the "Bottle of Fiction."

"Two thousand yuan per person," he said to his companions.

"Not bad." Franca nodded, then looked at Ludwig with a sad face. "This child's meal fee for one day must be over a thousand..."

And this is on the premise of not eating good things!

"There's always a way to make money," Lu Mian spent two hundred yuan to ask for five boxed meals.

Franca struggled for a moment and said:

"Give them all to Ludwig. Although I really want to relive the delicious food in my memory, I shouldn't waste money here. There will be better choices later."

After piling all five boxed meals in front of Ludwig, Jenna asked in a low voice:

"Can I look at the information on Mr. 'Fool''s identity in the dream now?"

She found that many passengers around were peeking at her and Franca, and had already sat down again.

Lu Mian deliberated for a moment and said:

"We haven't arrived at the station yet. Let's wait a bit, wait until we get out of the destination station to look."

Caution is paramount!

While speaking, Lu Mian took out a mirror and threw it into the gap between Ludwig and the backrest.

He was using mirror illusion to cover up the exaggerated situation where Ludwig could eat five boxed meals in one go and still only be half full.

He had just noticed that someone was secretly aiming at this side with the mobile phone Franca mentioned. His spiritual intuition told him that it was better not to let abnormal things appear in front of the public.

"Does this train have no clattering sound?" Jenna and Franca chatted.

Franca smiled with a show-off tone:

"Of course, this is the latest type of train, and it's very fast!"

She pointed to the display screen at the front of the carriage, which had real-time train speed. The numbers and symbols used were all familiar to Jenna.

Thanks to Emperor Roselle!

Franca introduced all the details that made Lu Mian, Jenna, and Anthony feel confused and puzzled with enthusiasm, correcting some of their views from time to time, such as:

"Is it more open here than Trier? I see that arms and legs can be exposed..."

"No, no, no, we are far behind Trier. This is just freedom of dress, and it doesn't offend others in public places. It belongs to the embodiment of being cultured and civilized. It's not as open as Trier in private!"

"Will our current appearance be too strange?"

"Don't worry, just say you're going to participate in a comic exhibition!"

"What is a comic exhibition?"

"..."

In such exchanges, the train finally drove out of the mist, and a magnificent city with countless high-rise buildings appeared in front. Each high-rise building seemed to be comparable to a mountain peak, and the surface was covered with glass curtain walls, flashing golden light under the sun.

Lu Mian and Jenna instinctively held their breath, as if they were approaching the kingdom of gods.

That is a miracle on the ground, that is the city on the top of the mountain!

Franca also stopped talking, her lake-blue eyes staring at the city, her expression nostalgic and sad.

The train gradually slowed down, entered the city, and finally stopped beside a clean, tidy, bright, and spacious platform.

Other passengers in this carriage disappeared abruptly, as if the weaver no longer had the strength to maintain it. After Lu Mian and Franca and the others looked at each other, they took Ludwig and walked off the train first, followed by Jenna, Franca, and Anthony in "strange clothes."

They left the platform with a large number of passengers from other carriages, took the self-operating escalator, and under the guidance of "guide" Franca, walked out of the station and came to the square outside. No one spoke along the way.

Seeing that the people around gradually went away and the vicinity began to become empty, Lu Mian took out the brown-yellow official document bag given by Lady 'Justice', extracted the information related to Mr. 'Fool''s identity in the dream, and spread it out in the sight of his companions.

Franca saw a name written in her mother tongue at the beginning of the information at a glance:

"Zhou Mingrui."
