After thinking it over, Jiang Lin decided to finish the important business first before talking about it.
A moment later, Gallagher returned alone.
"Are you ready?"
Jiang Lin nodded, signaling him to hurry up and do it.
Gallagher didn't hesitate either; he activated a device, and the entire building where the two of them were began to rise.
They stopped only after a peculiar garden appeared ahead.
"Let's go, this is his final destination. Pinocchio's first and last nameless customer—the watchmaker, Ragwalker Charles Mikhail."
Jiang Lin nodded and strode forward.
Upon reaching the destination, Jiang Lin saw an old man reclining silently in an armchair in the garden closest to the full moon in the water beneath the sea in the Memory Domain.
"The Watchmaker"—Ragvolk Charles Mikhail—has already embarked on that endless dream, and no sound can awaken him anymore.
Jiang Lin walked up to the old man, remained silent for a moment, sighed, and then gently took away his hat and the Dream Bubble from his arms.
"You're one of the nameless guests too, aren't you going to look inside?"
Seeing this, Gallagher asked with some curiosity.
Jiang Lin shook his head, his tone indifferent:
"No, it's empty inside."
Gallagher was somewhat confused by this:
"What does that mean? It's really empty? Why is this old man being so mysterious?"
Jiang Lin calmly explained:
"The content has disappeared on its own, I'll retrieve it later."
Gallagher: ? ?
After Jiang Lin properly disposed of the two items, he said to Gallagher:
"Go find the robin."
Gallagher nodded, and after asking around for a while, he found the little bird mixed in with the children.
The robin turned around and saw Jiang Lin and Gallagher. She politely said:
"Mr. Jiang Lin, and Mr. Gallagher, we meet again."
Jiang Lin thought for a moment and decided to get straight to the point.
"I have been entrusted by your brother to take you to a safe place."
The robin paused for a moment, then asked hesitantly:
"Was it because my disappearance caused some kind of disturbance outside?"
Jiang Lin shook his head and uttered the most suffocating words in the calmest tone:
"That's not it..."
Before the robin could even breathe a sigh of relief, Jiang Lin's voice came again:
"The company has called, and your brother can't guarantee your absolute safety."
(Dear readers, the author plans to create two original characters, their genders are currently undecided. Do you have any good-sounding names?)
Chapter 65 Seven days off?
Upon hearing this, the robin's eyes widened instantly, and her beautiful, captivating emerald green pupils trembled.
Upon closer inspection, one can even see that the halo above her head is trembling slightly, and the small wings behind her ears are fluttering restlessly.
"How...how could this be!? The war happened in Pinocene? Just a few days ago..."
The robin's voice trembled; he was utterly shocked by the news.
"That's true, so please come with me first."
Jiang Lin spoke calmly and mercilessly, extinguishing her last hope.
After a moment of silence, the robin said in a serious tone:
"No, I need to go find my brother first and ask him what exactly happened these past few days."
Seeing that she was not cooperating, Jiang Lin had expected it, but he still felt that it was a bit troublesome.
Jiang Lin looked at Gallagher and instructed him:
"You keep an eye on her and don't let her run around. I have some other things to take care of."
Gallagher paused, somewhat confused. What else did Jiang Lin need to do at Liumeng Reef...?
However, Gallagher did not refuse and simply nodded.
Upon seeing this, Jiang Lin also vanished from the spot.
A moment later, Jiang Lin appeared in front of Misha.
Jiang Lin's sudden appearance startled Misha and Clock Boy.
After the two of them came to their senses, Misha was about to greet them when Jiang Lin grabbed him and threw him into the dream bubble that had been prepared beforehand.
The clock boy was stunned, and then he jumped up and started yelling.
"You... must have been sent by Boss Stone. Release Misha immediately."
Jiang Lin looked at the animated character in front of him and suddenly felt like teasing it.
Since arriving at Pinocone, Jiang Lin has been focused on serious business.
He wanted to engage in abstract thinking to relieve his mental fatigue, but he couldn't find a suitable subject.
After all, Xing was on a date, March 7th was wandering around, and the others were all busy with important matters.
Having considered this, Jiang Lin put his hands on his hips and said to the clock boy with an arrogant expression.
"That's right, I was born from the Stone Boss, and my name is Sun Wukong!"
But before Clock Boy could say anything, Jiang Lin discovered that the live stream had been restarted.
The scene still shows the hardworking Master Elio, but he looks listless, as if he has been working through the night for several nights.
"Fireworks: Hehe, what exactly will they release at this crucial moment?"
"Robin: @Sunday, brother, what happened?"
"Potio: My goodness, you bunch of adorable corporate dogs, if you keep pursuing me, I'll love you all to death, you little bastards."
At this point, Potio, who was still in Asdena, was truly speechless.
The intelligence report didn't mention that there would be so many company dogs. He was driving the small, beat-up boat that he had snatched from the company, and he was so conspicuous.
This meant that once he entered the Asdna system, he was either being hunted or on his way to be hunted.
It was practically impossible to move an inch, and Potio decided that he had to find a place to hide from the storm.
Hmm? That train that seems to be drifting is pretty good...
March 7: @Jiang Lin, how are you now? We can't get in touch with you, please get back to the train quickly.
Jiang Lin: I'm fine. I've found the watchmaker's legacy. I'll be back in a bit.
"Danheng: Be careful, and you can put the inheritance on hold for now."
Jingyuan: You really don't need our support?
"March 7th: Strange, why isn't anyone from the family speaking? Especially that Dream Master, such a big thing has happened, isn't he going to do anything about it? Could he be dead?"
At this moment, March 7th was indeed a little angry, because even she could tell that her family was definitely up to something bad.
At this moment, the live stream finally came to life, and the first thing that caught everyone's attention was a very abstract title.
[Now playing: Sunday: Soul with Three Facets, Are You Deaf, Blind, and Dumb?]
"Sunday:???"
Hipper: ?
"family:!!!"
"Family Headquarters: Sunday is a personal matter; please do not generalize to the family."
"Gold Sand: Heh, the company fleet has already attacked, but I haven't seen you split from Sunday. Tsk tsk tsk, so you do know fear after all~"
"Ahahaha: Hahahaha, this is so funny, @Elio, Ahaha I like you more and more."
Scott: I've infiltrated the family! Requesting backup!
"Employee A: WC, NB."
Star: @Firefly, are you alright?
"Firefly: Yes, I'm fine."
Fireworks: Not trading? Where's my mask?
Sambo: Hmm?
Jiang Lin: @Elliot, what is this video...?
"Elio: I stayed up for two nights to cut this."
Silver Wolf: @Elio, it's you doing abstract stuff again.
[At the beginning of the video, Sunday is seen leaning against the windowsill, his chin resting on his hand, head slightly bowed, lost in thought.]
The sunlight shone on his face, making him appear incredibly sacred.
Then Sunday's voice came through, but he didn't speak; clearly, this was a recollection.
"O soul with three faces, please heed my question."
The scene shifts, showing Huang Quan battling Sha Jin.
"If the power and wealth of the strong can cover up crimes, who can judge them?"
