Chapter 344 The Nameless Passenger Gets Off the Bus
Chapter 344 The Nameless Passenger Gets Off the Bus
"Who is so important?"
Upon hearing Himeko's words, Hoshi fell into thought.
The only thing a train conductor would think about is the worst-case scenario: an anonymous passenger.
“Every person who boards the train is equally important to the train conductor.” Walter Young paused, his expression serious.
"Including me?" Xing pointed to herself, her expression one of utter shock.
Walter Young was somewhat speechless. "Of course."
"So that's how important I am!" Xing suddenly realized.
Himeko smiled but said nothing.
March 7th was a little worried, "It's been so long, is it still possible to find it?"
After all, Pam's age is unknown, and the nameless passenger he mentioned who had just gotten off the bus may have lived in the last century.
"Don't be nervous," Himeko said immediately.
"Let's treat it as a ritual of returning to familiar surroundings."
“Returning to the old ground? I don’t believe our pioneering journey will be so easy.” March 7 shook his head desperately.
"That makes sense." Xing nodded.
“I agree,” Eve commented.
"Ah..." Jing Yuan was somewhat bewildered at this moment.
What are they talking about? Isn't the pioneering journey easy?
Why not travel around, go on adventures, and experience the local customs and culture?
Himeko smiled helplessly, "Don't be so resistant."
"Otherwise, who can switch with me next time? I haven't gotten off the bus for a pioneering journey in a long time."
"That won't do!" the three said in unison.
Himeko smiled indulgently; she knew this would be the outcome.
They all said it was tough and too dangerous, but their actions betrayed their true feelings.
Himeko didn't mind and continued:
"Since the train left Pinocone, the cancer of the star core has separated all realms, and the ownership of Pinocone has changed hands several times."
"What happened to those nameless old people who stayed here? What did they experience? What traces did they leave behind in this world? Tracing the footsteps of our ancestors is also a kind of adventure."
“That’s true.” March 7th nodded. “It’s interesting to see what the seniors have done.”
“Right? Little Mitsuki thinks so too.” Himeko laughed.
"Are you sure you don't find them becoming a headache for the locals?" Xing was very skeptical.
"No, it won't," Himeko said.
Even after leaving the starry sky, the nameless traveler's "pioneering" will not end.
"That's what the train conductor thinks too, isn't it?"
Pam nodded solemnly, "Yes, Pam."
At this moment, Himeko pulled up the list of nameless guests from that year.
“According to the passenger roster, the three passengers who disembarked that year were named Tiernan, Ragwalk, and Lazarina. They were a train guard, a mechanic, and a surveyor, respectively,” Himeko said as she searched through the roster.
"There is no other information besides that."
March 7th was somewhat surprised, "Huh? Only a name and occupation? It doesn't even sound like a real name..."
"Isn't this like finding a needle in a haystack?"
“Let it be. Considering the diversity of the nameless guests... we might even find their descendants, or even have a very small chance of meeting them in person.” Himeko’s face was full of anticipation.
Although the time spans of the anonymous passengers getting off the bus varied greatly, most of them left traces.
Furthermore, it hasn't been too long since those three nameless passengers got off the bus, so we might actually see them in person.
"That concludes this meeting on flight routes," Himeko announced, ending the meeting.
"There's still some time before the leap, so everyone can take some more time to check their luggage."
Pam nodded. "I, the train conductor, will make an announcement before the jump begins."
"Also, passenger Jingyuan, your room is ready, it's in the first compartment of the storage car."
Pam handed a card to Jingyuan.
There was nothing we could do; the train was getting increasingly crowded.
This was originally a good thing, but when there were fewer people, the carriages were converted into storage rooms.
Now we'll just have to make do with Jingyuan's passengers.
"Okay, thank you, conductor." Jing Yuan excitedly accepted the card.
Finally, I don't have to sleep on the floor anymore!
"And also, go to Himeko-ryo for blankets and other daily necessities. The train will also give everyone pocket money on time," Pam said seriously.
"Understood, conductor." Jing Yuan nodded.
“Hmm…” Pam nodded, clearly pleased.
The passengers this time were much better; the previous two called themselves "little rabbits" as soon as they got on.
“Wait, why didn’t I have any pocket money before?” Xing suddenly asked.
“Yes, but do you remember what you usually do on the train?” Himeko asked.
"What did I do...?" Xing scratched his head, his eyes filled with confusion.
"Just a heads up, the train's toilets, the archives, the party car, and Little March's wardrobe," Himeko continued.
"Forehead......"
Xing seemed to suddenly remember something.
All he did was blow up the toilet, mess up the archives, switch the drinks in the party car, and finally hide in March 7th's closet to scare her, right?
"So, why don't I have any pocket money?" Xing still looked bewildered.
"Because you've already used your allowance to fix things." Himeko sighed helplessly.
Why can't I understand this child?
"The train's toilet, the repurchase of books in the archives, the repair of Shugou who got drunk on all sorts of random alcohol, and the clothes of Little March that you trampled while hiding in the closet," Himeko continued.
"I see." Xing suddenly realized.
"Why do I feel like you don't feel any remorse at all?" March 7th pouted.
Eve looked at the two lovable characters and smiled slightly.
"Oh, right, everyone." Jing Yuan suddenly remembered something.
He took a jade pendant out of his pocket.
"What is this? It looks so exquisite." March 7th immediately recognized the extraordinary nature of the jade pendant.
“It seems to be something very valuable,” Eve said.
This jade pendant is shaped like a tiger tally. Although it is not a tiger tally, it should have a similar function.
"Miss Eve has excellent taste," Jing Yuan said with a smile.
"Luofu believes that everything you have done is far beyond what Luofu can repay."
"Therefore, on behalf of the Luofu Cloud Cavalry, Fu Qing presents you all with a jade tablet symbolizing our alliance."
"Now, I will pass it on on your behalf." Jingyuan placed the jade tablet into Ji Zi's hand.
"So, is this a souvenir?" Xing asked curiously.
When asked this question, Jing Yuan was at a loss for words.
"This...can indeed be considered a souvenir. But it's not a small gift you can buy just by visiting."
"Thousands of years ago, when the alliance was established, all the immortal ships made a vow and inscribed it on the Jade Oath Alliance Record as proof. Even if heaven and earth perish, this vow will not be broken."
"This jade omen is the same. It records the Luofu Cloud Cavalry's commitment to the train regiment. At the same time, it is also a beacon. Holding it tightly will send a message to the pair of jade omens in Fu Qingzhong."
"No matter how vast the Milky Way is or how long the journey is, the Luofu Cloud Riders will come to meet the train and fulfill your expectations."
"Wow, this gift is really expensive!" March 7th exclaimed excitedly.
"What nuclear missile locator?" Xing asked succinctly.
Jing Yuan coughed a few times: "Uh... Of course, such an important thing should not be used for trivial matters or to violate the alliance. Everyone can understand that, right?"
“Of course.” Himeko nodded.
"However, you can keep this jade talisman."
Ji Zi then returned the jade tablet to Jing Yuan.
"Now that you're part of the Star Train, it's up to you to decide whether to use the Alliance Jade if any crisis occurs."
Jing Yuan looked at the alliance jade tablet that had been returned to him and nodded. "I understand."
"besides."
Jing Yuan took out another box and handed it to Walter Yang.
"This is what General Huaiyan asked me to give to Mr. Walter."
"Although I don't know what it is, it looks quite valuable," Jing Yuan said.
Walter Young looked at the box in his hand and was instantly filled with extreme excitement.
Isn't this the Gundam that I asked General Huaiyan to build before? I didn't expect it to be completed so quickly?
That speed is impressive, befitting a veteran blacksmith.
"Uncle Yang, what's in here?" March 7th asked curiously.
"Ahem, it's nothing." Walter Young immediately hid the box behind his back.
Such a wonderful thing, of course I should first have a good look at it.
"Tch..." March 7th pouted disdainfully.
Himeko seemed to have guessed something, and a playful smile appeared on her face.
"Alright, since that's the case, let's adjourn the meeting."
"Yay! I'm going to eat something delicious!" March 7th took the lead and rushed into the party carriage.
Walter Young left and returned to his room to open the box.
The moment the box was opened, golden light filled the entire room.
Wow! No wonder it's a masterpiece!
Seeing the golden light shimmering on the Gundam figure, Walter Yang suddenly realized what kind of junk he had bought before.
These are real figurines!!
"Hmph, I've found out, Uncle Yang~~"
March 7th crouched by the door, secretly watching Walter Young.
"This...didn't you go to get something to eat?" Walter Young was somewhat surprised.
"Isn't this to lower your guard?"
"I never expected it to be such a great thing! I want to play with it too!!" March 7th shouted.
"No way!!" Walter Yang refused righteously.
"Uncle Yang, Uncle Yang, Uncle Yang!!!" March 7th launched a coquettish offensive.
Walter Young finally gave in to March 7 and sighed helplessly, "Fine, you can play with it, but don't break it."
"Okay, Uncle Yang!"
On March 7th, I happily took the Gundam figure away.
Walter Young slumped into the chair as if he had lost all his strength.
On the other side, Eve sat on the sofa and picked up a magazine to read.
She had already finished reading the online novel at lightning speed, and it was really well-written.
If this were her account, she would definitely tip the author.
"Miss Eve, have you finished reading the novel?" Jing Yuan sat down next to Eve.
"Yes, I've finished reading it." Eve nodded as she looked at the magazine.
"Aren't you going to check on your room?" Eve continued to ask.
"No, I've already spoken to Ms. Himeko. I'll go after she's prepared all the daily necessities," Jingyuan explained.
“That’s fine too.” Eve nodded again.
"Would you like to listen to the radio?"
“Sure, it’s been a while since I’ve listened to this.” Jing Yuan nodded.
Eve turned on the broadcast button.
After a series of buzzing sounds, the voices of a man and a woman came out.
Female voice: "This is the Interstellar Peace Broadcast. Good evening, viewers."
Male voice: "Good evening."
Female voice: "Welcome to today's Interstellar Peace Broadcast. First, let me introduce the main content of today's program."
Male voice: "Under the leadership of Eve, Honorary Director of Interstellar Peace Corporation, Interstellar Peace Corporation and Immortal Boat Alliance have once again signed a mutually beneficial trade agreement, which will benefit the bilateral economy and jointly build a cultural street to showcase the cultures of both sides, located in Luofu Immortal Boat."
Female voice: "Alan Jones, chief scholar of the Armed Archaeology School of the Academy of Sciences, is leading the excavation of the ancient site 'The Tomb of the Machine King,' which has a potential hazard rating of W."

Male voice: "At the signing ceremony, the spokesperson of the Interstellar Peace Company's Marketing Department and Ms. Laughing Sky Captain of the Luofu Sky Ship Company exchanged views amicably and reached a consensus on issues such as the impact of the interstellar security situation on the free market."
Female voice: "But it is very regrettable that Director Eve did not attend this speech."
Male voice: "But Director Eve's spirit has greatly inspired us and has also given the project tremendous support."
