Chapter 62: Chapter 62: Two Little Ones from the Express with Crashed Brains!
Arriving at the visitor's passage in the base cabin, the members of the Express crew were still easy to find.
After all, among a crowd of researchers with ordinary temperaments, the sudden appearance of a no-brain + unhappy combo with a distinctly more advanced art style was still very easy to distinguish.
So Chu Ze walked directly up to them and spoke in a deep voice:
"You two must be the visitors from the Astral Express, right?"
Hearing Chu Ze's voice, the two little ones from the Express subconsciously turned their heads.
And then March 7th's eyes immediately lit up.
In a space station full of an intellectual atmosphere, the sudden appearance of a masculine tough guy, and a very handsome one at that, left a very good first impression on little March, both in terms of appearance and physique.
It was like a male college student who had been single since birth suddenly being approached by a stunningly beautiful woman with a great figure; it was impossible for his heart not to be stirred.
So March 7th quickly responded:
"That's right, that's right. My name is March 7th, and he's Dan Heng."
"You must be the liaison from the space station, right? Here's the commission list from Lead Researcher Asta. Could you please sign it?"
Chu Ze took the list and, for a rare change, used his brain to ensure there were no omissions.
Then he signed it neatly and returned the list:
"It's signed, Miss Intertwined Fate, and Mr. Cold-Faced Little Green Dragon."
"By the way, my name is Chu Ze, and my nickname is the Cool, Awesome, Kickass, Star-Rail, Macho-Man, Savior."
"...Eh? Mr. Kick...dangling?"
Such a title directly caused March 7th's brain to crash.
A big question mark appeared above her round head. Because there were too many points to roast, she didn't even know where to start.
On the other hand, Dan Heng looked at the clothes on Chu Ze, his gaze slightly freezing:
"Mr. Chu Ze, are you a civil servant from the Luofu Xianzhou?"
"Whoa, an expert."
Chu Ze puffed out his chest: "That's right, I'm the General Affairs Secretary of the Luofu's Six Commissions, nominally a fourth-level civil servant."
A fourth-level civil servant, that was a standard high-ranking Xianzhou official, definitely considered part of the upper echelon.
Dan Heng's expression immediately became a little strange.
But before he could speak, Chu Ze spoke first:
"Don't worry. Although I'm a person within the system, my current duties do not include arresting wanted criminals."
"And I don't know anything about your past, let alone the secrets of the so-called High-Cloud Quintet."
He patted Dan Heng's shoulder and said slowly:
"As for the Shuhu's invasion, Baiheng's fall. Everyone was sad, the companions were melancholic."
"Dan Feng and Yingxing had a flash of inspiration. The dragon transformation technique, no longer confused."
"The secret technique failed, the monster went berserk. Jingliu drew her sword and buried it herself."
"The price was heavy, the team fell apart. The white-haired one turned dark, the mara was hard to stop."
"Yingxing went mad and defected from the Xianzhou. Dan Feng was reincarnated and fled everywhere."
"Of the former Cloud Quintet, only Jing Yuan remains. Sighing longly, looking back at an empty past..."
"As for all that I've said above, I know absolutely nothing about it, so you can just put your mind at ease."
Dan Heng: "..."
And so, another brain crashed.
Dan Heng and March 7th just stood there, stunned.
Fortunately, it was little March who came to her senses and asked with confusion:
"What... what is Mr. Kick...dangling saying?"
Chu Ze responded:
"Nothing, just reciting a routine."
"And my name is not Mr. Kick...dangling. My name is Chu Ze. If you can't remember the title, you can just call me by my name."
"Oh, oh, Mr. Chu Ze."
March 7th blinked, feeling a little unable to keep up with his speaking rhythm.
This guy's thought process was really too jumpy.
Chu Ze also knew that making friends couldn't be rushed. So he didn't show his purpose right away, but casually extended an invitation:
"Since you're here, how about I show you around the space station?"
March 7th nodded without much thought:
"Sure, we were planning to rest here for a bit before heading to the Azure Star anyway."
"...Hmm? The Azure Star?" Chu Ze was puzzled.
Shouldn't the next stop be Belobog?
March 7th explained: "Because we promised Ms. Herta and Lead Researcher Asta that we would go to the Azure Star again to deliver some supplies."
"After leaving there, we might come back here again, and then decide on the next location."
The whereabouts of the Nameless were never a secret, so March 7th had no intention of hiding anything.
Chu Ze also finally sorted out the timeline.
It seems that this time, the Express crew was just making a brief stop and would be back soon.
Calculating the time, it should be the next time that he would meet Stelle, and then the main storyline of the original work would be triggered.
"I understand." Chu Ze nodded in realization.
March 7th was curious: "What do you understand?"
Chu Ze looked at the young woman: "I understand why you're so beautiful."
Eh?
Suddenly being praised so directly, March 7th was a little shy: "Wh-why do you say I'm beautiful?"
Chu Ze grinned: "Because I was lying."
"..."
The pink-haired girl's expression froze: "Hey!!"
Chu Ze laughed: "That was also a lie. Actually, you're really beautiful, very fitting for the image of a cheerful girl."
"Let's go, you two. I'll show you around the space station, a place where cutting-edge science gathers."
Looking at March 7th's rapidly changing expressions, Chu Ze also finally understood why Stelle liked to interact with her.
This kind of cheerful and simple girl was indeed fun to tease and very amusing.
And looking at his sturdy back, March 7th secretly stomped her foot.
...Why do I always feel like I'm being played with in the palm of his hand.
...And this guy doesn't seem like he's from the Erudition faction at all, but more like a fun-seeker from the Joy faction.
As for Dan Heng, his consciousness was also pulled back to reality.
Passing by Chu Ze, he nodded slightly at him:
"Thank you, Chu Ze."
Chu Ze shook his head gently:
"You're welcome, Taro."
...
...
Next was Chu Ze leading the tour, showing the two around the space station.
Because the Astral Express really didn't have anything urgent, March 7th and Dan Heng just followed behind Chu Ze, listening to his introduction.
"This is the Master Control Zone."
"This is the Supply Zone, and that room is the medical bay."
"This is the Master Control Zone."
"This is the Supply Zone, and that room is the medical bay."
"This is the Master Control Zone..."
"...Wait a minute, haven't we circled back again?"
March 7th couldn't help but speak up: "And you've already introduced this place many times, right?"
Chu Ze nodded slightly: "Yes."
March 7th said: "Then let's go somewhere else. We can't just keep wandering around here, right?"
Chu Ze put his hands on his hips: "I can't, because I'm lost."
"???"
So you're not familiar with the space station either!
And that's nothing to be proud of!
"Ah, I found the cafeteria. Let's eat together."
Following his muscle memory, he managed to find the cafeteria he frequented.
Chu Ze held up the black card in his hand:
"Order whatever you want, it's my treat."
Looking at his generous appearance, little March's desire to complain was immediately suppressed:
"So nice? You're not using someone else's card, are you?"
"Hey, you're wrong about me."
Like a magic trick, Chu Ze took out another black card with a gold border:
"This is the card Asta gave me. In principle, I can spend infinitely."
"But I'm a man of principle. Although I'm very familiar with Sis Ta, I can't really just be a freeloader all the time."
"So unless it's an emergency, I will absolutely not use other people's money carelessly."
Seeing his sincere look, March 7th and Dan Heng both held him in higher regard.
To be able to resist the temptation of wealth, to hold a huge black card but still adhere to one's principles, this was not a character that just anyone had.
"Chu Ze, you're quite principled."
Little March said with emotion: "Although you're a bit improper, your character is surprisingly upright and incorruptible."
Chu Ze smiled faintly: "You flatter me, you flatter me."
"So order whatever you want, don't be polite with me."
"Oh, oh, then I'll order."
March picked up the menu, thinking of just ordering a few small dishes. She couldn't really let Chu Ze spend too much.
But when she took a closer look, she narrowed her eyes: "Wait, the dishes here are all free?"
Chu Ze nodded: "Yeah. Except for the private restaurants, the public cafeterias in the space station all provide free dishes. This is also a benefit for the researchers..."
"Then why did you say it was your treat just now?"
"Of course it's my treat. It just didn't cost any money. A free treat is still a treat."
Seeing Chu Ze as if he were teasing a little girl, March 7th took a deep breath, her small pink fists clenched in her sleeves:
"You guy..."
"Give me back the感动 (gandong - moved feeling) I had just now, hey!"
