Honkai: Star Rail: A Person on the Train, Working 9 to 5

Zhou Xiao has transmigrated into the world of Honkai: Star Rail, becoming a logistics staff member on the Astral Express. He also obtained a self-discipline system, which grants random rewards as l...

Clown Huanlong.

That's so embarrassing...

...

This logistics staff...

Maybe she's not a logistics staff member...

As a general on the Luofu Immortal Ship, Jing Yuan felt immense pressure looking at Zhou Xiao. He now seriously suspected that Zhou Xiao was actually an agent who had infiltrated the Immortal Ship to cause trouble.

This is a damn interconnected chain of events...

The Medicine King's secret technique, which she believed could overthrow the Immortal Ship, actually became a stepping stone for Huanlong. Huanlong thought she was invincible in the Immortal Ship... but ended up being utterly defeated by Zhou Xiao...

Now the person behind it all has come to light...

Jing Yuan never expected it to be Zhou Xiao standing before him...

"Everyone... he is definitely not the logistics officer you know... let's retreat..." Jing Yuan said to the crowd.

Everyone present nodded upon hearing this and began running towards the exit of Lin Yuan Realm.

“Danheng…once we leave the main hall, use the water of the ancient sea to restore this place…I will order the resealing of the Scale Abyss Realm…although this may not be of much use to that person, it will at least buy some time.” Jing Yuan said to Danheng as he ran.

"Um..."

Dan Heng simply nodded.

The group ran very fast, partly because Zhou Xiao didn't pay much attention to them, which allowed them to reach the entrance quickly.

"General!"

Upon seeing Jing Yuan and the others emerge, Fu Xuan, who had previously been thoroughly challenged by Zhou Xiao, covered his face with one hand and addressed them.

"Fu Qing...your face..." Jing Yuan was quite startled when he saw that Fu Xuan's cheek was swollen like a pig's head.

"The wanted criminal...the wanted criminal went inside. I couldn't stop him," Fu Xuan reported.

Upon hearing the words "wanted criminal," everyone understood that they were referring to Zhou Xiao...

"Stop talking and let's go. Something's happened in the Lin Yuan Realm. We need to close it off again immediately..." Jing Yuan said.

"?"

Although he didn't understand the situation, since Jing Yuan had said so, Fu Xuan would just follow along...

The group retreated in this manner.

When the Star Core Hunters outside saw them, they raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Why haven't you left yet?" Jing Yuan asked when he saw Ren.

"Waiting for someone," Ren uttered softly.

"Are you waiting for that logistics officer?" Jing Yuan immediately realized what was going on, and then said, "Don't wait anymore, that's not the logistics officer you know at all... The situation is complicated, let's go out first."

"?"

The Star Core Hunters were also somewhat confused about Jing Yuan's meaning, but upon hearing that Jing Yuan's departure would close the Scale Abyss Realm, they had no choice but to leave the Scale Abyss Realm as well...

After everyone left... the Scaled Abyss Realm gradually disappeared above the sea, becoming difficult to find, while everyone stood on the shore of the Pill Cauldron Division, each with their own thoughts.

The train crew members had very mixed feelings.

They had all heard Zhou Xiao mention something dangerous inside them during their last meeting... but they hadn't taken it seriously at the time...

Looking back now...

Faced with that dangerous being, it seemed they had no chance of rescuing Zhou Xiao...

"Does this mean we've abandoned him again?" In the silence, March 7th looked towards the direction of Lin Yuan Realm and asked with a somewhat dejected tone.

"..." Walter, Xingmei, and Danheng remained silent.

“That’s definitely not the logistics officer you know… I suspect he’s someone from some organization that’s trying to overthrow the Immortal Ship…” Jing Yuan said reassuringly.

“No… he is Zhou Xiao, he is sick,” March 7th said.

"???"

"What exactly... happened?" At this moment, both Silver Wolf and Kafka on the Star Core Hunter side wanted to know what had happened in the Scale Abyss.

Aren't we going to deal with Huanlong?

Why is it that everyone from the Immortal Boat and the Train Group has returned... but Zhou Xiao hasn't...?

Hearing the Star Core Hunter's question, March 7 glanced at Kafka and the others and then said, "Why should we tell you... you bad woman."

“...”

Upon hearing this, the ancient sword beside him was already drawn and pointed directly at March 7, and Dan Heng quickly blocked the attack for March 7.

Not to be outdone, March 7th also drew his longbow in preparation for a counterattack.

“Alright…” Just then, Walter pushed up his glasses to stop the fight, then looked at Kafka and the others and briefly explained what had happened in the Scale Abyss.

Upon learning that the dangerous entity within Zhou Xiao might have erupted and taken control of him, Kafka and Silver Wolf suddenly recalled the request Zhou Xiao had made when they first invited him to join them on Yalilo VI...

I want to know what's inside my body, or what it is...

After listening to Walter's words, Kafka looked towards the other side of the sea, her eyes slightly complicated: "Go back... and take a look."

Silver Wolf nodded. She had lost all interest in playing games. She looked at Jing Yuan, then at the rest of the train crew, and said:

"You call yourselves Zhou Xiao's friends and partners? He was perfectly fine when he went in to rescue you... If it weren't for rescuing you, we would have been gone long ago..."

"Forget it, there's no point in explaining this to you... It's a willing buyer and a willing seller..."

Ren Wensheng, who was standing to the side, didn't say anything more.

Although Zhou Xiao often puts her in a tough spot... well, as long as Kafka gives her a task, she'll just do it.

Seeing that the Star Core Hunters were about to return, March 7th couldn't sit still any longer.

She would never abandon Zhou Xiao again...

"I'll go too..."

"I'm going too!" Xingmei declared, indicating that as Zhou Xiao's apprentice, she also had to go and save her master.

Seeing that they were about to return to Lin Yuan Realm, Jing Yuan and Fu Xuan, who were on the Immortal Ship side, became restless.

"Gentlemen... I know you're anxious to save your comrade, but... you also need to assess the situation. Judging from the energy erupting from that logistics officer... it's absolutely beyond our current capabilities. Rushing in like this won't solve the problem; it'll just be sending yourselves to your deaths..."

Jing Yuan spoke rationally.

What he said was also something Walter was considering...

really.

It's no different from sending someone to their death.

"So we'll just watch?" March 7 shook his head: "Even if I die, I'll die on the way to save him."

"Tsk..." Kaffa looked disgusted at March 7th's comment and said, "Still a love-struck fool..."

When Silver Wolf heard March 7's voice, he also looked March 7 up and down.

"Huh? Huh!" At this moment, Xingmei seemed to have thought of something, her face showing surprise, and then she took out a bottle of medicine from her pocket:

"This medicine... Bai Lu mentioned it. My master is ill! This medicine can cure him!"
