Chapter 538 My detective radar tells me there's something wrong with this person!
When Xing and Liuying regained consciousness, they found themselves in a dark alley, where Walter was waiting for them.
"Xing, I'm so glad to see you're safe and sound."
“Mr. Walter, you’re here too?” Xing scratched his head.
“Close your eyes…that’s the answer,” Firefly explained. “It’s incredible, isn’t it? The monster we’ve always seen as ‘death’ is actually the guardian of the Exile. It follows a certain pattern, abducting those in their dreams and bringing them here.”
[Starry Sky Railway - Star: So that Memory Realm meme is actually a bus?]
[Starry Sky Railway - March 7th: In that case, Miss Robin and Mr. Sunday should also be safe and sound?]
[Starry Sky Railway - Himeko: At least based on the information we have, there is no true death in dreams. They were probably also abducted here by the memory domain meme "death".]
[Honkai Impact 3 - Kiana: By the way, have you guys forgotten someone...? Wasn't that gold dust killed by that big guy?]
[Honkai Impact 3 - Tesla: That slash even cleaved a huge rift in Pinocchio's dream; I seriously doubt if that guy is still alive?]
[Honkai Impact 3 - Einstein: But judging from the previous videos, at least after that slash, Mr. Sandstone still managed to have a conversation with Ms. Yellow Springs, so I'm more inclined to believe that Mr. Sandstone didn't actually die.]
[Honkai Impact 3 - Changguang: But whether we've actually arrived at this primordial dream is hard to say. After all, based on their conversation, the correct way to enter is through that Memory Domain Memento.]
on the screen.
Walter nodded and said, "The question we've been wondering about, 'Does true death exist in dreams?' now seems to be a mental trap set by the mastermind behind the scenes to cover up the truth about the disappearances and... this fortress called 'Dream Reef'."
"Every appearance of that meme is related to the 'Watchmaker.' Since Dream Reef is the destination where it abducted everyone, many of the questions that have troubled us for a long time can be answered here."
"The atmosphere here is completely different from that in my dream. People live a very relaxed life, there are no family-like managers, and their mental state is somewhat subtly dazed."
Firefly continued to share the findings of her investigation.
"But from the residents' snippets of conversation, I gleaned a familiar name... 'Gallach.'"
Walter narrowed his eyes. "It's that man again, always appearing at just the right time in every crucial place... which saves us the trouble of searching for him."
"Himeko and Mitsuki have already set off. Hoshi, get yourself ready, we'll be leaving now."
Xing still had many questions in her mind, so she didn't rush to set off. Instead, she had a conversation with Liuying and Walter separately.
After calming themselves down, the three continued forward along the alleyway.
Soon, they reached the end of the alley. After the three of them went around it, a huge statue of Clock Boy came into view.
"Such a huge clockwork boy...it seems that the 'clockmaker' also left a significant mark on Liumeng Reef."
After a sigh, Walter and Xing, led by Liuying, stepped into the elevator.
As the elevator operated, making a creaking sound, the group's field of vision expanded, revealing numerous scattered settlements.
"Unbelievable, outside the family's sight... there is a settlement of this size in the dream."
Upon reaching the top floor of the elevator, Walter looked around, his sense of unease growing even stronger.
"The atmosphere of this fortress... is quite different from what I dreamed of."
Liu Ying nodded and said, "I was also surprised when I first saw it. The sky here is like... a reflection of the Twelve Dreams."
"What's even stranger is that the area is divided into a trading zone and a residential zone, which, despite their simplicity, are quite well-equipped. It seems that a considerable number of people live here."
Upon hearing this, Walter also looked up at the reflection in the sky. "Although the two dreamscapes are different in style, the architectural styles are quite similar, almost like the work of the same designer. The connection behind this similarity is intriguing..."
[Genshin Impact - Night Palace: It really is! The reflection above my head looks just like the Twelve Dreams!]
[Genshin Impact - Paimon: But I can't seem to see the reflection here in the Twelve Dreams... Hmm...]
[Genshin Impact - Jean: After all, judging from the way you enter Dream Reef, this place is inherently very hidden. Perhaps that reflection was deliberately concealed in the sky.]
After a moment's thought, he looked at Hoshino beside him and said, "There's no point in thinking about it too much. Let's go and meet up with Himeko and the others first."
The three then split into two teams. Ryuki went alone to look for clues about Galah, while Walter and Hoshi prepared to go to the trade zone to find Himeko and March 7 who had gone ahead, in order to discuss the train crew's next move.
Watching the firefly disappear into the distance, Walter looked at the star and said, "Let her go. We need to observe her before judging whether she is trustworthy. Before that, I want to talk to someone."
"Let's go together, I think you've probably noticed."
"Who?" Xing scratched his head. Could it be that Mr. Walter had some acquaintance here?
“Look, it’s over there…”
Following Walter's gaze, Xing's eyes accurately locked onto two figures not far away.
[Starry Sky Railway - Star: It's Clockwork Boy!]
[Starry Sky Railway - March 7th: It really is the Clock Boy! Did Star learn that clock trick from it?]
[Starry Sky Railway - March 7th: Wait! Why is Clockwork Boy here?]
[Starry Sky Railway - Walter: Judging from the architectural style here and the huge Clock Boy statue, this place probably has some connection with that famous clockmaker.]
“How did the doorman at the ‘Daydream’ Hotel end up here, and so soon after Miss Huang Quan’s beautiful dream was shattered?” Walter murmured. “Just to be on the safe side, it’s best to confirm.”
As the two approached, they quickly attracted the attention of the doorman.
He immediately bowed and said, "Oh, it's the previous guest, we meet again! And a new friend... I forgot to introduce myself, I'm Misha, the hotel doorman."
[Starry Sky Railway - Robin: A doorman at the "Daydream" Hotel? As far as I know, there doesn't seem to be such a person in the family.]
【Starry Sky Railway - March 7th: !!!】
[Starry Sky Railway - March 7th: There's an unexpected twist!]
[Starry Sky Railway - March 7th: As an ordinary doorman, it's already suspicious enough that he appeared here after Miss Huangquan severed the dream. Now, even his doorman identity has been exposed by Miss Robin.]
[Starry Sky Railway - March 7th: My detective radar tells me there's something wrong with this guy!]
