"It's not impossible to have the local dishes of Belloberg..." The manager touched his chin, smacked his lips, and showed a regretful expression, "Then I'll serve you red fish fillet, grilled lizard meat, and rock-grilled cave newt according to Belloberg's custom. Are there only three of you?" Sanyueqi nodded. "It's just the three of us. We originally wanted to invite Bronya and Seele, but they were either delayed by something or returned to the lower district... I don't know when we can have a meal together." "Bronya and Seele..." The store manager smiled and whispered in a voice that only he could hear, "It seems that no matter where they are, the relationship between these two sisters is so good..." "Oh, there's one more thing." Suddenly, the young store manager seemed to have remembered something and walked up to Miss Pioneer. He patted her on the shoulder, and smiled brightly on his handsome face. "Are the two guns I gave you good to use?" "of course." Not even a millisecond of hesitation. The pioneer's heroic face showed a very satisfied expression. "In terms of feel, it's not as good as my baseball bat yet, but in terms of destructive power and appearance, it's a perfect 10." "Really? As long as it suits you." The store manager's eyes revealed a little doting emotion. He stretched out his hand and gently stroked the pioneer's gray hair. He said with some emotion, "I don't know why, but the first time I saw you, I felt that you were very suitable for that weapon. Anyway, it's not a unique piece. If you think it's useful, just keep it for yourself." "Is it really possible?!" Pioneer's eyes widened, his golden pupils filled with excitement, "Thank you, Dad... No... Ship... No... Manager!"
Sanyueqi blinked and looked at Danheng who was also confused. Chapter 5: Don't try to reason with your baby Even from the perspective of a fellow pioneer, the gray-haired girl named "Star" is an extremely special existence. The artificially created body is enough to easily penetrate the body functions of the antimatter army. It has a lot of combat experience and a terrifying personality that makes it seem like a social terrorist, talking to everyone (NPC) it meets as if nothing happened. Well... probably also include the "violent words (option)" that she blurts out without warning in certain special situations, which don't match her stern face at all, and her mysterious obsession with all things on the roadside (interactive items), including trash cans. During this not-so-long journey, Sanyueqi and Danheng had already gained a deep understanding of Xing's distinctive personality and style of doing things, and they were completely unable to understand why this guy had become a person whose only face and body looked handsome. Of course, the inability to understand does not mean the inability to communicate and get along, and strictly speaking, Xing’s eccentric personality did not have any negative impact on their behavior except for the occasional embarrassment. In addition, from the perspective of a companion, this guy is indeed a trustworthy and easy to get along with person, so Sanyueqi and Danheng just let her be. However, among those "specialities" that are different from ordinary people and difficult for ordinary people to understand, there is a "commonality" that the three-member pioneer team all have. ——That is the past. Whether it is Danheng, Sanyueqi, or Xing, in a sense, they are all people who have lost their past. San Yueqi has no memory of the past, and even if she wanted to explain it herself, she couldn't. Dan Heng has been avoiding his fellow Yi people and is very secretive about his past. Xing was simply born not long ago. Not to mention whether she could remember or not, she didn't even know whether the so-called "past" really existed. After all, the reason why Xing boarded the Star Train, became a pioneer, and followed Himeko and others (Akivelli) to travel around the universe was not only to prevent the crisis and disaster that might be caused by the "star core" in his body, but more importantly, to figure out who he really is. Therefore, even though the three members of the pioneer team have distinct personalities, they will tolerate and respect each other's style of doing things during the journey. The only thing is that they understand each other from the bottom of their hearts, that is, "the loss of the past." It was like three equally wounded puppies licking each other's wounds, seeking healing while also healing each other. So, when Xing acted as if he had known the young store manager for a long time in front of him, not only Sanyueqi, who was often startled, but even Danheng, who had a calm personality, could not help but reveal a somewhat confused expression. After a brief moment of shock, Sanyueqi stood up in an instant: "Wait wait wait wait! Xing, store manager, you two knew each other before??"
"Ok?" The young store manager and Xing glanced at San Yue Qi at the same time, then shook their heads in unison and denied it in unison: "No, the store manager/Miss Pioneer and I have only known each other for a short time." Sanyueqi looked at the calm store manager and then at Xing, who looked indifferent. He really couldn't find any flaws in the expressions of the two people, so he could only sit back in his seat in a depressed mood and muttered in a low voice: "You both said that you don't know each other... Then what's the matter with this weird tacit understanding between you two?" "Well, how can I describe it..." The young store manager turned his gaze toward Xing, and Xing also turned his gaze toward the store manager. The young handsome man and beautiful woman stared into each other's eyes without hesitation in the silent atmosphere. The air seemed to become ambiguous, as if Cupid's arrow of love had hit the hearts of both of them at the same time. ——But it didn’t. "Miss, have you ever played a series of RPGs with multiple works?" The store manager raised his lips slightly and turned his gaze back to the direction of March 7. "Huh?" The topic jumped so fast that San Yueqi, who was not very smart to begin with, was a little confused. "Series...RPG?" "Well, it should be easier to understand if we use this example as an analogy." The store manager raised a finger. "RPG is also known as role-playing games. Usually, RPGs belonging to the same series have a common worldview. Putting aside the constantly iterative gameplay, the only difference between them is the stories they depict and the characters they play, right?" "That's right...but why do you bring this up suddenly?" San Yueqi had a head full of question marks. "Nothing, I just thought that using this example as an analogy should help you understand more clearly the relationship between me and this pioneer lady." The store manager spread his hands, "To put it simply, although we are not related, and we are not even the kind of 'parallel world isotopes' that you are familiar with, but for some reason, we can be regarded as different 'playable characters' in the unified series of works..." "Can...can the character be played?" There were more question marks on San Yue Qi's head. Xing nodded thoughtfully: "I see...I have that strange sense of trust in the store manager. It turns out that it's not because the store manager has used some kind of consciousness to hypnotize me, but because there is this kind of relationship between the store manager and me." Dan Heng and San Yueqi looked at the young store manager at the same time, their eyes were extremely piercing. The store manager's expression froze for a moment. Feeling the gazes of San Yue Qi and Dan Heng, as well as the coldness and anger that suddenly surged out of the kitchen, the young store manager wiped off his sweat and glared at the expressionless and unconscious Xing with gritted teeth: "Wait, why do you think I hypnotized you? What kind of image do I have in your eyes? I don't seem to have done anything bad to you, right?" Xing blinked her eyes and spoke in a self-righteous tone, as if she was saying something that was a matter of course: "A red-haired pervert who flirts with girls everywhere and lusts after my body. A typical light novel protagonist." Sanyueqi and Danheng stood up quietly and stood next to Xing, one on the left and one on the right. "Hey, why didn't you tell us about this?" Sanyueqi leaned close to Xing's ear, looking a little anxious and a little depressed, "If I had known, I wouldn't have brought you to this store." Dan Heng didn't say anything, but just stood silently beside Xing, expressing his position without words. "Huh? Why?" Xing tilted his head and looked at March 7 with a confused expression. "Why?! Oh, I'm so angry. You are a cute girl after all. Can you have a little self-protection awareness?" "But I don't hate the manager. I also like this store. Why can't I come here?" Xing's expression became more and more confused. "..." March Seven was choked by Xing's pure words. Dan Heng closed his eyes, covered his forehead, sighed deeply, and then sat back in his seat. He didn't want to get involved in the mess between these two people.
The pioneers of the Star Express have an obligation to look out for each other, but that care does not include personal matters. San Yueqi looked at Dan Heng who was sitting back down, and then looked at Xing whose face was becoming more and more confused. He felt a complete powerlessness rising up from the depths of his heart. Seeing that the crisis here seemed to have been resolved, the young store manager twitched his lips. He felt the growing chill coming from the kitchen and laughed dryly: "I am very happy that you can tell your companion clearly that you don't hate me. That is, can you tell the people here clearly that there is nothing between the two of us." If I don’t explain clearly, I will be killed—the store manager’s eyes silently revealed such a meaningful expression. Then, with the store manager’s expectant eyes— "why?" In a non-malicious tone. "According to what you said, shouldn't we be the two closest people in the world?" From Xing's mouth came the most vicious words that could be spoken to a man with a wife. Ah oh. The two auras that suddenly appeared behind him made the young store manager turn his head tremblingly. He looked at the smiling moon and the stars, a peaceful smile on his face. It's over. Chapter 6 Lao Yang: It feels like I’m back home Awww ... Thunder! Snap! Bang! Bang! Whoosh! Ziz! Boom! Accompanied by the screams coming from the kitchen that seemed familiar, the sound of things being smashed, the sound of floating cannons, the sound of wind mixed with piano music, the sound of chainsaws, and the flashes of light and shadow that followed, the three pioneers team ate the local Beloberg dishes served to them by the gentle maid in silence. After all the dishes were served and the maid turned around and left, Sanyueqi looked around, then glanced at the girl who was still buried in the bowl of soup without moving, and quietly leaned close to Xing's ear. "Hey, I mean, did you do this on purpose?" "?" Xing put a spoonful of vegetable soup into his mouth, tilted his head slightly, and a clear look of confusion appeared in his eyes. San Yue Qi pointed his mouth towards the noisy kitchen and asked in a low voice, "Is it the store manager? Didn't you see that he has a girlfriend, so you are deliberately making things difficult for him?" Xing pondered for a moment, shook his head seriously, swallowed the vegetable soup with a gulp, and said seriously: "No, I do think that the store manager and I are the two closest people in the world." His expression was serious and his tone was firm. That posture makes it hard not to think of the four words "determined to win". March 7 was stunned, and he felt that his not-so-bright brain seemed to have opened a brand new door, and countless truths emerged from it. Dan Heng stopped moving his hands.
He turned his face and glanced at Xing quietly. Why didn’t I realize before that this guy actually has a crush on Cao Ze? The old-fashioned young man from the Immortal Boat was silent for a long time with a complicated expression, and finally let out a helpless sigh: "The Starry Sky Train is a place where people protect their shortcomings, but before this, Mr. Walter and Miss Jizi both had very high moral standards." A rather subtle admonition. However, although Dan Heng did not explain his words completely, his implication was very clear. The Star Train and the two seniors on it will do their best to protect other members of the group - but that is not unconditional. At least, with the two predecessors' upright values, they would never protect obvious evil deeds. Xing looked back at Dan Heng, nodded as if he understood, then lowered his head and silently started eating. At this moment, the wooden door was suddenly pushed open from the outside. A middle-aged man with a tuft of white hair on his head walked into the store. Hearing the footsteps, San Yue Qi turned his head subconsciously. After seeing the man walking into the store, he exclaimed, "Hey, Uncle Yang? Why are you coming down?" Walter Yang walked into the store and looked at March Seven, smiling gently: "Don't worry about me, you guys continue to eat, I just came down to take a look at your situation, since all three of you are fine, I am relieved." Suddenly, Walter Yang's expression froze. Because he saw the girl sitting behind March 7 with her face buried in a bowl of thick soup. The Herrscher of Thunder, the Herrscher of Origin - Raiden Mei. Although he couldn't see his face clearly, as the former leader of the Anti-Entropy Alliance and someone who had fought side by side with those Herrscher ladies from St. Freya's Academy, he could of course tell the other person's identity from his back. Is this child the equivalent of Raiden Mei on this planet? Meeting someone who looks similar to an acquaintance on a different planet - although this is rare, it is not the first time that Walter Yang, who has traveled to many worlds on the Star Train, has experienced this. So after a brief surprise, Walter Yang quickly calmed down. March Seven did not notice the brief surprise that Walter Yang showed. Being a passionate person by nature, she certainly could not watch her senior in the train crew who cared about her very much turn around and leave without even eating. "That won't do! Since we're here, Uncle Yang might as well have a meal with us. The food on this planet tastes pretty good!" She stood up and waved towards the bar, "Beautiful maid! This table needs another chair and a set of tableware, and a few more dishes!" The door curtain of the kitchen was slowly lifted by a bare hand wearing a fiber glove, and Walter Yang followed March Seven's gaze and turned his eyes towards the bar. Then, after seeing the maid walking out of the kitchen, his face, which had just returned to normal, became stiff again. Rita Rossweisse's counterpart? No, aren’t there too many homologues in this store? "Do you need to add a guest? I understand." The maid walked to the table with an elegant smile on her charming face. She first pulled the chair under the neighboring table next to Walter Yang, then went behind the counter and took out a set of clean dishes and knives, forks and silver spoons, and placed them neatly on the dining table. Then she made a cup of tea and bowed slightly: "The kitchen will start preparing the dishes you ordered right away, please wait a moment." "Ah... um... I understand." Walter Yang, who felt a little at a loss for some reason, sat in the new position, feeling uncomfortable, "Excuse me, this... maid lady."
The beautiful maid with long gray-blond hair smiled and said, "Please help yourself." After saying that, the maid returned to the kitchen behind the bar with her usual elegant demeanor. After the maid left, Walter Yang, who finally relaxed a little, couldn't help but let out a long sigh. He glanced at the 'Raiden Mei's counterpart' behind March Seven, hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong with her?" San Yue Qi turned around to look at the still motionless girl and said, "The store manager said that she probably thought the soup was too delicious, so she couldn't stop eating it and lost consciousness... I originally wanted to try whether the soup was really that delicious, but unfortunately Dan Heng wouldn't let me." "..."
