Chapter 137 Pinocchio (1) Star Train White Moonlight...
You have received a message.
You have received an email.
Early in the morning, He Yuan opened her phone and saw a message notification at the top.
He had some trivial matters to deal with in the real world, and now that he had some free time, he planned to see if there were any new games available to play.
First came the news.
The netizen who previously recommended "Immortal Boat Life Simulator" to him sent a new message saying that the game has a new DLC.
Previously, He Yuan had only played up to the Immortal Ship chapter mentioned in the name, but this game is set in the Milky Way, so its scope and range are probably not limited to just one Immortal Ship.
Who knows, maybe we can go to another immortal ship or the territory of another faction later?
For example, there's the company that's always been around, Flowing Light Memory Court, and a planet under the same harmony, all of which are dropping carrots on players' heads.
Upon hearing that a new chapter had been released, He Yuan immediately logged into the game to check it out.
There was an email in his game account, sent by the development team.
【Dear player 0303:】
You have collected all the challenging storylines and items; hereby, we extend an invitation.
—From the production team
Invitation letter?
He Yuan opened the email, and a blue background with a cartoon character depicting a clock face unfolded before her.
We cordially invite you to this grand event in the name of the future.
[The Star Train is about to depart for Pinocchio. Please board as soon as possible.]
The interplay of past and future may be laying the groundwork for a future plan.
Don't worry, you will be in no danger. There will be people ready to protect you.
[The future stars of this grand event – await your arrival]
—A very riddle-like person, but the general meaning was still conveyed.
In short, he needs to board the Star Train and head to a place called Pinocchio for an...adventure?
That's about it. Hopefully, he can have more fun and enjoy himself.
He Yuan's consciousness entered, and upon opening her eyes, she saw Jing Yuan's sleeping face.
The time before he withdrew... seems to be three or four years after his divorce from Jingyuan?
Although they are divorced, they still sleep together and in the same bed.
That makes perfect sense.
Because they are best friends!
And... how should I put it?
Jingyuan gave him a very different feeling.
Time in the game is virtual, but it feels like... he really lived for a hundred years, and spent a hundred years with Jingyuan.
Ordinary people can say they have a deep relationship after a few years or a decade of getting to know each other, but their relationship is several times deeper after a century, with an emotional bond so strong that it is impossible to sever.
Once you give it up, it feels like a piece of flesh has been cut from your heart.
He Yuan stared at Jing Yuan for a long time without making any move. Then, a certain Shence general who was pretending to be asleep pretended to wake up, opened his eyes, and very skillfully leaned in to kiss him.
After a sticky good morning kiss, he casually asked, "Have you been awake for a long time?"
He Yuan let him nuzzle and kiss her, her fingers threading through Jing Yuan's soft hair. "It's true... I just suddenly realized that I really want to like you."
—I miss you so much.
The unpleasant things in the real world make He Yuan love the game world even more.
Jing Yuan felt lucky to have He Yuan around, and He Yuan sometimes wished that Jing Yuan could come and help her.
He has the ability, but not much power. Now he's like a mascot pushed to the forefront, doing tedious work.
If only Jingyuan could take him away like a prince.
Their lips had reached the loose collar of the shirt, and the kiss marks from last night still lingered on the skin. Jing Yuan gently rubbed against the skin a few times, then stopped when he heard the soft panting, quietly holding the young man's waist.
"I miss you too, Xiao Yuan."
He spoke very softly, but He Yuan didn't hear him. She only felt a tingling sensation in her collarbone.
Crane was captivated by the soft, gentle embrace of the land, and felt an urge to simply stay here instead of going to Pinocchio.
But his curiosity about new things made him persevere and leave.
Jing Yuan didn't seem too surprised; instead, he thoughtfully gave He Yuan some instructions on what to be careful about while out.
"Oh dear! I've been out several times already, this is just a short trip!" He Yuan hugged Jing Yuan's arm. "Besides, isn't there the Jade Alliance? If I need anything, I'll definitely come to you!"
Jing Yuan sighed helplessly, "Fine, then remember to write to me often, okay?"
He Yuan promised, "I'll call you every night, okay?"
Jingyuan shook his head: "That would be a burden for you. It would be better to contact each other every few days to keep communication flowing."
Upon hearing his words, He Yuan became petulant: "If I call you every day, will you answer or not?"
Jing Yuan immediately replied, "Of course I'll accept."
"What I mean is, call me if you want, but don't force yourself if you're too busy."
"I don't want this to be a burden for you."
He Yuan: "...I understand."
He took a red hairband out of his pocket. "Here, this one I made myself. It's for you."
"I..." The young man paused, a rare blush appearing on his face, "Our relationship will never change, you will always be the most important person to me—that will never change!"
Jingyuan's eyes widened slightly, and his fingers unconsciously reached out to grasp Heyuan's hand. "Me too...you are also the most important person to me."
—Even surpassing myself.
But as mentioned earlier regarding the "burden," Jingyuan wouldn't say it that way.
"No matter what happens, if you encounter any difficulties, please come to me, okay? I will help you solve them."
He Yuan joked, "Then can I solve it by breaking into the prison again?"
Jing Yuan smiled and said, "Then I'll probably turn a blind eye."
—As long as it doesn't involve the safety of Luofu.
But he believed that Crane Kite wouldn't either.
Regardless of the past or present, even if he acts recklessly, the final outcome will always be in Luofu's favor.
Jingyuan was willing to believe it.
Not only because he is a crane kite, but also because of that ability.
Those who come from the future... can probably see many blind spots that are invisible now. Many of the things He Yuan does seem outrageous at first glance, but the more time goes on, the more you can appreciate their deeper meaning.
Of course, Jing Yuan knew that He Yuan wasn't thinking that much; he was just using an analogy.
******
After exchanging heartfelt words with Jingyuan, Heyuan packed her luggage and headed to the coordinates on the invitation to wait.
The Star Train is teleporting to Luofu to replenish resources. They welcome any nameless passengers. He Yuan boarded the train smoothly and sat in the carriage looking towards Luofu.
Train conductor Pam brought over the drinks with a clattering sound, and almost dropped the plate when she saw He Yuan's face.
"You're He Yuan?!"
He Yuan wasn't too surprised. After all, thanks to Luo Sigu's hype and marketing, he, who had only filmed twelve commercials, was still a hot celebrity. The Starry Sky Train wasn't blind and deaf, so naturally they would know about him.
But isn't this reaction a bit too much?
He Yuan nodded curiously. "Yes, that's me. Do you need an autograph?"
Pam looked disappointed when she heard his words. "You don't remember Pam?"
Don't remember?
Crane Kite began a brainstorming session.
First, Aquivilli, the pioneering star god who created the Star Train, has already fallen. Pam is considered a companion of the train, and his age is estimated to be similar to that of Aquivilli.
The last time the train jumped to the Immortal Ship was four hundred years ago, so He Yuan obviously didn't have the chance to get to know it.
There's only one possibility left.
Driven by a certain opportunity, he became an anonymous visitor—specifically, an anonymous visitor during Aquivilli's lifetime.
Because Pam then said, "Ah Yuan, you know about Avi's matter, Pam?"
Very good. Now all the Star Gods are saying to him that they used to have an affair with them. He Yuan won't be surprised at all.
However, this feeling of having connections everywhere is actually quite nice; at least you don't have to worry about your living conditions on the train.
"Pam? Train conductor? Why are you crying?" A man with light blue hair walked over and asked curiously.
He looked at He Yuan, his gaze shifting back and forth between Pam and He Yuan, before hesitatingly asked, "Hey, you're not going to bully the train conductor, are you?"
Crane Kite: "...Huh?"
He bullied Pam? But they only exchanged a few words!
Just as He Yuan was about to say something in her defense, Pam hurriedly clarified, "I didn't bully Pam! Pam just saw the person she was looking for, so—so she's crying tears of joy!"
"The person the train conductor is looking for?" The light blue-haired man thought for a moment, then suddenly realized, "You're the White Moonlight of the Starry Sky Train who laid the tracks with the Pioneer Star God, and the forbidden word on the train!"

Author's note: Mikhail's character is a blend of the Watch Boys cartoon and a bit of history.
The watchmaker has a somewhat eccentric and idealistic personality.
This history is making me dizzy; please forgive any inaccuracies.
