Chapter 348: Dusk
When Sha Jin heard Xing's words, he first stared at Xing's eyes, and then laughed out loud.
"Hahahaha - interesting, this is really the funniest thing I've heard in these days."
After the laughter, Sha Jin's face calmed down.
"Well, my friend. Assuming you're not kidding..."
"Is Starry Sky Train trying to steal something from the company?"
When saying this, Sha Jin's face and voice were slightly gloomy.
"Didn't I tell you that the Starry Sky Train will keep a share of the profits? If the company has the strength, it can take it all away. Isn't this the original purpose of the company?"
Xing said with a chuckle.
"Really? Rather than just a piece of the pie, the company always prefers the whole thing."
Sha Jin also regained her usual smile.
"Although the company is the most powerful force in the universe, it is not so powerful that it can cover the whole world with one hand. You can't take over the entire Pinocchio."
"So what you mean is that the Star Train has such great connections that it can bypass the company and take over the entire Pinocchio?"
As he said this, there was a hint of disdain and mockery in Sha Jin's eyes.
"No, not eating it."
Xing slowly stood up, walked to Sha Jin's side and patted Sha Jin's shoulder.
"But...Pinocone should belong to the Star Train."
After saying that, Xing walked out without looking back, and before leaving, he did not forget to ask Sha Jin to help close the door when he left.
Sha Jin looked at Xing's back until he disappeared, then he couldn't help but chuckle twice, and then lowered his head to think.
"Okay, okay... Really interesting. Let me see, the company's former border prison, now the dream place of Pinocchio, belongs to the Interstellar Peace Company or the Star Train..."
"Or... From what I understand, the Star Train shouldn't rashly get involved in this matter... Interesting, then what exactly is the basis of your words?"
Xing went out and walked into the hall, where he saw Qiong, Sanyue, Qidan and Heng all coming down to gather.
"What took you so long? I seemed to hear someone in your room just now?"
Xing walked into the team, and Qiong asked Xing.
"There is a bird."
"What the hell?"
"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's get down to business."
Ji Zi looked around and then spoke.
"Because the train had experienced some setbacks before and there were more passengers, Pam didn't tell me on the train and asked me to pass it on."
"The purpose of our visit to Pinocchio this time is not only to enjoy a beautiful dream, but also to inquire about the news of the three unknown guests who once stayed here."
"Huh? Three unknown guests? At Pinocchio?"
San Yueqi was a little surprised when he heard this.
"Yes, according to the train crew list, these three are the train guard Tiernan, the mechanic Ragwock, and the surveyor Lazarina."
"In addition to guards, are there other jobs like mechanics and surveyors on the train? It seems that we only have Dan Heng as the guard now, and there is no one for the other two positions."
After hearing what Ji Zi said, San Yueqi couldn't help but ask questions.
"This brings us to Jizi's multiple roles. Little Sanyue, do you remember that it was Jizi who picked up and repaired the train from the beginning?"
Walter said with a chuckle.
"Oh, yeah, I suddenly forgot about it... hehe."
San Yueqi suddenly felt a little embarrassed and scratched his head.
"Anyway, you're just looking for someone, right? I don't know if these three have made a name for themselves. If they are doing well, I think we can easily find out about them."
Qiong thought this was a very simple matter. With technology so advanced nowadays, why would you be afraid of not being able to find someone?
"Perhaps, but apart from their names and their occupations while on the train, we don't know much more about these three old unknown passengers."
Ji Zi shook her head, thinking that Qiong was thinking too simply.
"Well, if those three unknown guests are really unknown and just settled in Pinocchio, it's really like looking for a needle in a haystack."
March 7 also nodded in agreement.
"Anyway, just go with the flow. Keep this in mind and share the news when you have it. Next, there is another thing I want to explain to you..."
Jizi briefly explained the discordant sounds hidden in the music box given by her family and the message from the watchmaker that was revealed.
But not much was said, so it didn't cause much discussion.
"If the information about the watchmaker is counted as one thing, plus the ticket, that makes it three things."
Dan Heng reminded.
"Yes, two. I've already secured the tickets. Bronya and the others will be able to come in tomorrow."
Xing answered casually.
Suddenly, Ji Zi, who was about to leave, froze in her tracks.
He turned and stared at Xing.
"You took care of all five of them?"
"Actually, there are six, and there is also a treasure hunter. Although this fellow can sneak in, he should still be given an official place."
Xing nodded.
"Six tickets...in such a short time? How did you do that?"
Walter was also surprised.
"I met an acquaintance, and he happened to be traveling with someone from the company, so we benefited from each other and got these tickets."
Xing explained it very concisely.
"You always give people unexpected surprises."
Jizi smiled when she heard that. She felt a little guilty for not being able to bring all the passengers into Pinocchio.
But I didn't expect that this difficult problem could be solved so easily by Xing.
"Alright, alright, Jizi, stop praising him. Look, his tail is about to rise to the sky."
Seeing Xing looking so proud, Sanyueqi couldn't help but say jokingly.
"Don't praise me, I deserve it!"
Xing said rudely.
"Hey, you're really welcome!"
After a small quarrel, everyone was just about to return to their own rooms when someone else came over.
"What, are you talking about me?"
Sha Jin walked over with a smile and naturally interrupted the internal meeting of the Starry Sky Train.
"Who are you?"
Seeing Sha Jin walking towards him on his own, Qiong couldn't help but ask.
"Haha, young lady, please allow me to introduce myself, and also to introduce myself to all the unknown guests who don't know about my Star Train yet."
"I am Shajin, a member of the Strategic Investment Department of Interstellar Peace Corporation. I am one of the experts in non-performing asset liquidation, and I am also the one who provided six extra tickets for your train."
When they heard about tickets, everyone immediately understood what was going on.
My impression of Gold Dust improved immediately. After all, they gave six tickets so that all the passengers on the Starry Sky Train could visit Pinocchio without any regrets.
"Hello, Mr. Sagine, I'm Himeko, the navigator of the Star Train, and thank you for providing us with six tickets."
Jizi walked forward and said with a smile.
"You're welcome, Ms. Himeko. After all, it's just payment for cooperating with this gentleman."
Sakin chuckled and shrugged, then looked at Himeko.
"But it just so happens that this cooperation seems to have deepened the possibility of further cooperation between me and everyone at the Star Train, regarding the cooperation of watchmakers."
When she heard the word watchmaker, Jizi immediately realized that the company seemed to have discovered the secret hidden in the music box.
That also means that the message is not unique and that this message may exist in all music boxes.
"Did your cooperation just now come in so abruptly?"
Seeing this sudden cooperation, Sanyueqi couldn't help but scratch his head and look at Xing.
"more or less."
Xing nodded, but it was the gold sand that he had just inserted.
Next came the conversation between Ji Zi and Sha Jin, but it didn't last long until two men and women with wings on their heads called Sha Jin away.
When Sanyueqi saw one of them, he exclaimed, "Ms. Robin! I am your idol... Oh no, you are my fan... Uh, that's not right..."
"She is your idol."
Qiong couldn't help but remind March 7 when she saw his look.
"She is my idol!"
San Yueqi said it again without thinking.
Qiong couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand, and the robin couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh.
Then he signed his name in the small notebook that the blushing March Seven handed over to him.
It was a small farce, and although it was a bit embarrassing, I did get to know the big star of Pinocchio a little bit.
"Well, Mr. Shajin has an appointment with the Oak family, so we'll take him in first. I'm very sorry to have delayed your conversation. I apologize to you all. As an apology, I'll upgrade your room type."
I apologized to everyone in a very gentlemanly manner on Sunday.
"Mr. Sunday, you don't have to be so polite. There are many guests at Pinocchio. This is a bit too much of a bother."
Walter said modestly.
Behind him, Qiong wanted to cover Walter's mouth.
The room just now was very luxurious! If it is upgraded, it will be very luxurious! Uncle Yang has misled me!
Qiong was heartbroken.
Fortunately, the decision was not retracted on Sunday.
"This is also what Mr. Shajin meant. Don't worry. If you need anything in Pinocchio, the family is always here to help you."
After saying this, Sunday left with the robin.
Everyone exchanged a brief conversation without staying for long, and followed the waiter to the upgraded room type.
If the previous room type was an ordinary double room, now it is a luxurious large single room, which is at least two levels higher.
Although Xing felt that there was not much difference, since he was already asleep, who would still be playing in the room?
Walking to the Dream Pool, Xing reached out and touched it. The liquid in the pool was more like a tank of slime than water.
Although it feels like it has been inserted into cool water, it is not wet when you take it out.
"Prepare for the Sky Meteor."
Xing walked into the dream pool, then slowly sat down.
A cool and soft feeling enveloped my whole body, and my consciousness soon became out of control, as if I was about to fall asleep.
When he opened his eyes again, Xingdu was ready to drop from the sky, but he didn't expect that he was not at the golden moment at all.
Looking up, the sky was slightly dim, but not dark.
Pinocchio uses twelve time periods as the divisions of the areas, and the sky at this moment corresponds to the time of dusk.
Xing looked around and saw that the style of the place was quite American from the 1980s, and it looked very suitable for filming a movie.
There aren't too many people here, perhaps because the surrounding bars are filled with people enjoying themselves and drinking wine.
"That's weird, shouldn't it be the golden hour? And I didn't meet Misha on the way."
Xing shrugged and said, since we are here, let’s take a look around first.
Even on the busiest streets, there are still corners that no one cares about, even in the dream place Pinocchio.
A tavern with a slightly shabby style is located at the end of the street corner. Unlike other bars full of laughter and various dynamic BGM, this one is very quiet.
Xing was very interested in this unique tavern, so he quickened his pace and walked closer to take a look.
You won't know until you see it. It's shocking. The more you look at it, the more familiar it looks.
I saw that the old sign read "Peace and Order"
