Chapter 662 - 667: Black Swan: Oh no! This isn’t right, is it? I’ve become the outsider!

Chapter 662: Chapter 667: Black Swan: Oh no! This isn’t right, is it? I’ve become the outsider!

The direction of the community’s discussion was becoming more and more unsettling for Little Gui!

At first, she just thought Black Swan was a bit odd...

But after reading so many related comments.

A genuine suspicion began to rise in her heart!

"Prison Swan, what exactly are you up to!"

"Answer me!"

...

Astral Express.

Party Car.

"Ding!"

An ethereal notification tone sounded.

Black Swan paused by the bar.

She opened her phone.

It was a message from the Memokeeper internal group chat.

Although Memokeepers, as Memetic Entities, have much more convenient ways of exchanging information than ordinary people.

In the tide of this grand era, even Memokeepers must keep up with the times.

Having their own internal group chat is simply more convenient.

[Black Swan. We have important information to share with you.]

[Within the Garden... there are Memokeepers who have reached an agreement with the company, willing to lift the veil on Amphoreus for them.]

[By now, they should have arrived at the corresponding coordinates.]

[This may alter the Astral Express’s Trailblaze journey...]

[You should be able to contact the Astral Express, right? Please inform them of this fact promptly.]

[We hope this can help improve our relationship with the Astral Express...]

Black Swan replied with a "Got it" sticker.

That some Memokeepers were willing to guide the company was hardly surprising.

There are conflicts within the Garden as well.

There is an entire organization that has formed on a large scale, even managing to hold Fuli’s little finger...

Now,

The content in the group chat messages has completely confirmed this possibility.

"Then, in that case..."

"For Amphoreus."

"The power of the Astral Express is even more necessary."

Black Swan’s lips curved into a slight smile.

She lifted her slender neck.

"Although the situation is somewhat troublesome, overall it’s still within the expected range..."

"Telling the Astral Express Crew this news should elicit quite a reaction from them~"

With her fingertips,

She lightly tapped each of the four drinks on the bar counter.

Each drink seemed to come to life, floating around her.

Together, they headed toward the Parlor Car.

"Now,"

"March 7th, Dan Heng, and Stelle are not on the train. The remaining adults among us can perhaps indulge a little."

These drinks all contained some amount of alcohol.

This was specially prepared by Black Swan after informing Pom-Pom in advance.

She believed,

This would bring a more enjoyable experience to everyone’s upcoming viewing and conversation.

"Hmm... hum..."

Humming a melodious tune,

She arrived at the Parlor Car.

The door opened.

The floating drinks beside her shimmered with a beautiful glow.

Black Swan had expected to see looks of pleasant surprise and relief from the Astral Express Crew...

But the actual situation...

Was vastly different from what she had imagined!

It could even be said to have exceeded Black Swan’s expectations!

At the doorway,

Welt’s gaze was gloomy.

One hand rested on his cane, with a flash of red lightning at its tip.

He exuded a faint sense of pressure.

Directly ahead, Himeko stood with her arms crossed.

She looked at Black Swan with a scrutinizing gaze.

By the window,

Sunday stood expressionless.

As Black Swan slowly moved forward,

He seemed to deliberately, yet subtly, shift toward her escape route, as if intentionally blocking her retreat!

The three of them,

Unintentionally formed a surrounding trend.

This...

What’s going on?!

Despite her inner shock, Black Swan maintained a calm and composed appearance on the surface.

She spoke up: "The drinks are here~"

The four drinks floated one by one onto the table.

Seeing that everyone remained unmoved,

Black Swan feigned surprise and said: "Hmm?"

"Why have you all stopped watching the storyline of Honkai: Star Rail?"

"Did something major happen in the plot while I was away?"

"But, don’t worry..."

"First, try the drinks specially prepared for you by the Memokeeper. After drinking them, any problem you encounter can be easily resolved."

Black Swan was confident that her words were gentle and pleasing.

Even the coldest person would at least say a word of thanks after hearing them.

However,

The three of them still showed no reaction!

After a deathly silence,

Welt finally spoke: "Miss Black Swan, some say that Memokeepers never do anything unnecessary..."

"Once things spiral out of control, they quietly leave, leaving the mess for those involved."

Black Swan chuckled softly.

Casually, she replied: "Mr. Welt, you really know how to joke."

"As Memetic Entities, although everything we do is for Remembrance, it doesn’t mean we have lost interest in everything else in the world."

"Even speaking for myself, even if I cannot obtain precious memories from everyone’s journey, I will spare no effort to help each and every member of the Astral Express Crew."

Black Swan gently placed a hand on her chest as she spoke these words, as if they came straight from the heart.

But these words did not have the intended effect.

Instead, they seemed to remind everyone of some unpleasant memories!

The gravity on their faces deepened even further!

This...

This isn’t right!

The smile on Black Swan’s lips slowly faded.

A shadow rose in her heart!

At this point, even the most oblivious person could sense it.

It wasn’t that something had changed in the Amphoreus storyline—this change was entirely directed at her!

She had only been gone for a few minutes.

She remembered that the interrogation had already ended by then.

Logically speaking,

shouldn’t the next part of the story involve both sides compromising and then continuing the journey on Amphoreus?

Damn it!

What on earth happened in those few short minutes?

It directly caused the Astral Express Crew’s attitude toward her to plummet to freezing point?

It seems...

In the future, during live broadcasts of the storyline, she could no longer take shortcuts and leave.

This Honkai: Star Rail is just too ruthless!

The slightest lapse in attention, and you miss crucial information!

At that moment.

Sunday, who was behind her, spoke up.

Although he, like her, was a new passenger who had just boarded the train,

he now gave off the feeling of having long since integrated, while she was the outsider.

"Miss Black Swan... May I ask, if Miss March 7th’s condition worsens, would you leave without saying goodbye?"

Black Swan was taken aback.

Instinctively, she wanted to reply, "Of course not."

But something stirred in her heart!

It seemed she had realized something!

Could it be...

That Honkai: Star Rail had presented another ending during that brief period just now?

And in that ending,

the Astral Express Crew likely chose to leave Amphoreus!

And March 7th’s condition worsened, while she left without saying goodbye.

That’s it!

This would completely explain everything!

After realizing this,

Black Swan let out a deep sigh.

"It seems there’s something I must say..."

Hearing this,

Himeko and Welt exchanged a glance!

Their expressions shifted.

Indeed...

However,

right at that moment.

Pom-Pom suddenly ran over in a panic!

Holding a phone in both hands.

"It’s terrible!!"

"Something big has happened, Pom!"

"Dan Heng just sent a message—they’ve encountered a major incident on Amphoreus..."
