"Thank you for the gift, Boss [Crit]!"
"Galaxy Rangers... Maybe I'll consider it after the Honkai: Star Rail storyline ends!"
"Those guys seem really cool!"
"Ahem..."
"Alright, let's get back to the main plot!"
"Just now, Boothill successfully infiltrated the Slumbernana Society. Robin has temporarily left because... some extreme measures are inevitable next."
"Let's see what Boothill will do next!"
...
Boothill looked around.
But here.
Aside from the Slumbernana Society members here for the event, there was nothing unusual.
Not even a single Slumbernana Monkey in sight!
Just as Boothill turned to investigate another area.
Suddenly.
A line of text appeared before him.
[They aided the tyrant and deserved to die]
Boothill sneered.
Blurted out, "What the banana is this? The welcome ceremony's already starting?"
"Fine, bring it on. One ninja infiltrator is enough."
He took two steps forward.
More text generated!
[This bullet will eventually hit you]
[Just wait, Oswald]
"What the banana... Wait, is that me?"
As Boothill realized this.
A colorful effect instantly filled the entire screen!
The silhouettes of Slumbernana Monkeys jumped around in the background!
The Memetic Entity attack,
had arrived!
Ahead.
A figure stood there!
Boothill gritted his teeth.
Pulled out his gun!
Ready to shoot the mastermind dead!
Just as he was about to pull the trigger.
The figure screamed!
"Wait, wait, hold on—"
The person ahead wasn't some vicious villain.
But a panicked March 7th!
"Wuwuwuwuwu..."
"Is skipping class really this serious?"
Her voice carried a hint of sobbing!
From sheer nervousness.
Her entire face turned red.
Filled with grievance!
...
"The poor kid's scared to tears."
"March, so cute!!!"
"First time hearing skipping class could cost your life."
"March is hilarious, adorable, and heartbreaking at the same time, hahaha."
"Wuwuwu, little March, don't cry, mommy loves you~~ pat pat pat~~"
"Screenshot successful! Hehe, March 7th's new emoji is out!"
"So, March 7th was internally recommended by the Slumbernana Society classmates and ended up here?"
"Who dares to bully our little March! (Hands on hips)"
"March 7th's pitiful expression, I will protect it!"
...
At Paperfold University.
March 7th was momentarily stunned.
She never expected,
that she would make her reappearance in such a manner!
Even her cries were a bit hoarse...
"Isn't this too pathetic? Too silly?"
Shouldn't she have immediately drawn her bow,
confronting Boothill!
Then split the screen in two,
giving close-ups of both their expressions.
Highlighting their cold and resolute looks?!
"Why am I so weak, crying like a little girl!"
"Back at Herta Space Station, facing the Doomsday Beast, I just charged in with my bow!"
"What's going on here!"
"Yu Ling, this plot is OOC!"
Beside her.
Stelle showed a meaningful smile.
She patted March 7th on the shoulder.
And said, "Well, everyone can understand."
"After all, at the space station, the Astral Express Crew was all together, with parents backing you up."
"Now, you're out investigating alone..."
"Being cautious and timid is understandable."
March 7th scratched her head: "What you say makes some sense."
"Wait!"
"You're implying that I'm the weakest in the Astral Express Crew, aren't you?"
"I'm the swordmaster of the Astral Express, I'll kill you!~"
Stelle quickly gave a look: "Don't mess around, the players are watching."
"Whatever, I don't care about image or face anymore!"
Suddenly.
In the live stream, Little Gui let out a gasp!
"Why has my March 7th's name changed like this?"
March 7th quickly stopped what she was doing and looked at the big screen!
At this moment in the plot.
Her name had changed to [Slumbernana Society, Talent 244 March 7th]
Introducing Boothill and other Slumbernana Society members.
It seems.
The earlier misunderstanding has been resolved.
And,
She's doing quite well in the Slumbernana Society!
She's about to infiltrate the enemy's ranks!
She's truly a natural intelligence operative!
To remain unscathed through repeated blows, still maintaining her innocence, March 7th's optimistic attitude is commendable.
"Hahaha, this is hilarious, folks."
"This mission description has even captured Boothill's inner thoughts!"
Little Gui opened the mission interface.
Two lines of text appeared before all the players.
[Well, the Nameless lady we met last time is here too. Her partner said someone here has seen a real Slumbernana Monkey. You're curious about the difference between the real and fake monkeys, and whether it's as big as the difference between you and the real Pom-Pom.]
[Probably not, but you should still go and see for yourself. Gathering more intel before shooting isn't a bad idea.]
"Oh no, our conductor has become a substitute!"
March 7th said this, but a mischievous grin spread across her face.
However.
Soon.
She couldn't laugh anymore.
"Sir... although you look unfamiliar, you're not just an ordinary member, are you?" Assistant Banana 71 asked Boothill.
"That's right, they say I have talent."
"Huh? What talent..."
Boothill grinned: "I'm a VIP member, number 244, March 7th."
March 7th's jaw dropped!
It was so wide she could almost fit her own fist in it.
The barrage of comments kept rolling!
...
"Now, I am March 7th!"
"If you're March 7th, then who am I, Pom-Pom?"
"Little March: I think I understand how Dan Heng felt last time."
"Oh no, March 7th has become a substitute!"
"As expected of a man of the world, this act is so natural!"
"Borrowing an identity right in front of the real person, without any sense of incongruity!"
"Now, that's what you call professionalism."
"Boothill probably thinks linking with Assistant Banana is risky, so he plans to take it on himself."
"Boothill is now cooperating with the mastermind behind the scenes, waiting for them to reveal themselves, then shooting them dead with one bullet, simple as that!"
"Boothill, you're awesome!"
"Boothill is actually very smart, March isn't good at thinking but her intuition is spot on."
