"I suspect that the invitation he received also contained similar coded messages—and that were also deciphered."
"There's something else that's bothering me. This is how the family head responded when the topic of the invitation came up."
"As the de facto managers of Pinocchio, the family should naturally help you resolve any difficulties."
"Now it seems that there was something more to it than met the eye."
Su Jinyan's phantom suddenly appeared before everyone: "And there's Miss Robin, whom I recommended."
"Her voice was noticeably strange."
March 7th was almost startled: "Little Su, how come you appear and disappear like a ghost?"
"Where's Hanabi? Didn't she come with you?"
Su Jinyan smiled slightly: "We built a jack-of-all-trades shop in the Golden Moment, named Mickey Mouse Clubhouse."
Walter: "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse?"
Su Jinyan: "Yes, we will listen to the guests' troubles then."
"And we accept the requests of our guests to help them solve their problems."
"And Hanabi is my best assistant; she's busy with this."
March 7th looked at him suspiciously: "You're really that kind of person to accept a customer's request and help them solve their problems?"
Walter said in a deep voice, "It seems you've also noticed Miss Robin's unusual nature."
"So, all your previous actions were actually a test of the robin and Sunday?"
Su Jinyan: "No, I just thought it was fun."
Walter: "..."
Himeko asked, "Walter, do you suspect that your family wasn't the one who sent the invitation, and—that you're hiding something from us?"
Walter replied, "Well, it's not impossible."
“It is unusual for a family to extend invitations to other factions.”
"Your discovery also confirms that there may be a third party involved... I take back what I said earlier, this 'grand event' is not simple."
Star confidently declared, "With this Galaxy Baseball Man here, nothing will be a problem!"
Su Jinyan said, "Mr. Walter is right, there is indeed a third party involved in this grand event."
"I have identified at least three forces so far."
Walter adjusted his glasses and became serious: "Oh? I'd like to hear more."
Su Jinyan pushed up his glasses and said, "If the mystery is revealed so quickly, it would be rather pointless."
"Mr. Walter, why let anxiety and unease fill your journey?"
"Enjoy the fun of exploration; exploration and pleasure are inseparable. If you encounter danger, I will lend a helping hand."
Walter: "...Would you like me to give you a pair of glasses?"
Su Jinyan politely declined, saying, "I feel more comfortable when someone else pushes me."
Himeko couldn't help but chuckle: "Mr. Su Jinyan is right. Pinocchio is, after all, a world-renowned resort destination, and many people may never be able to come here in their lifetime."
"For now, let's focus on the train conductor's request, gather information, and enjoy our wonderful vacation at the same time."
"By the way, would you like a cup of coffee?"
Su Jinyan's eyes lit up; he knew exactly how awful Ji Zi's coffee was.
That taste must be second only to Walnut or Thunder General's dishes, right?
The three great dishes of the underworld: Himeko's Coffee, Kurumi's Ghostly March, and Raiden General's Judgment.
"Please make sure to prepare a few extra cups for me; I need them to entertain customers when Mickey Mouse Clubhouse opens."
Upon hearing this, Walter and the others began to sympathize with Su Jinyan's clients.
Are you running a general store or a funeral parlor? Why are you in such a hurry to send your customers away?
......
After leaving the VIP lounge, Walter and his party quickly arrived at the guest room area.
By simply going through the dream pool in the guest room and following the instructions on the dream passport, you can travel to the real Pinocchio.
On the way, the group happened to see a supervisor flying into a rage, yelling at his subordinates.
"Useless people, how can we allow stowaways to infiltrate our VIP area?"
"Find that guy quickly, or you'll be getting your performance bonus docked."
March 7th whispered, "Wow, there are stowaways in Pinocchio?"
Walter explained, "That's normal. Pinocone is a world-renowned resort."
"The guests who come here are all people of status and position. Those who are not invited can only try to sneak in."
Walter's expression turned strange as he recalled Su Jinyan, who was disguised as the Grand Duke of the Underworld.
Is it possible that Su Jinyan went to the Yonghuo Mansion to kill the Grand Duke of Minghuo in order to obtain an invitation from his family?
Based on his understanding of Su Jinyan, if the [family] had sincerely invited Su Jinyan back then...
He would at least give the [family] some face because of the invitation.
Now, on his very first day in Pinocchio, the head of the Oak family, Sunday, was already tricked and outmaneuvered by him.
Walter had a bad feeling.
In the dream, Pinocchio is divided into twelve moments, each moment symbolizing a kingdom.
Then Su Jinyan's "Golden Moment" will probably be the first to suffer.
Soon after.
On March 7th, I pushed open the door to the guest room with great anticipation.
Who would have thought that the scene that came into view would leave March 7th speechless and screaming.
"Wow, what is this?!"
"What the hell is this?!"
Upon hearing March 7's voice, Xing immediately drew her baseball bat, ran in the direction of the sound, and kicked open the door.
"Don't be afraid, March, I'm coming!"
"this--"
Xing's pretty face turned bright red from holding it in, but she finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The VIP room on March 7th had already been occupied.
The one who usurped the position was none other than March 7th.
To be precise, it's the limited edition of the Diting (谛听) edition for March 7th.
Looking at March 7th, who was lying on the floor looking like a dog, panting and sticking out his tongue, he couldn't help but scold her angrily, "Su Jinyan!"
"That's outrageous! How could you slander me like that? Apologize!"
Su Jinyan snapped her fingers, canceling the fictional limited edition of the Listening to the Heavens on March 7th.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just wanted to test my ability to create fictional historians."
"As you can see, it took some getting used to at first."
Su Jinyan seemed to realize that she had gone a bit too far.
He immediately knelt on one knee, took out a bundle of thorns, and offered his apology to the man on the seventh day of the third month.
"March, I shouldn't have slandered you like that."
"If you're really angry, then use this thorny branch to whip me hard."
March 7th, embarrassed and annoyed, threw away the thorny branch: "Do you think we're perverts?! Who would use a fake penis to whip someone!"
"I'm angry. If you don't coax me, I'll never talk to you again."
Su Jinyan sincerely apologized: "Don't be like that, how about I treat you to a big meal?"
"I've already asked the waiter about the must-eat restaurants in Pinocchio."
On March 7th, her anger turned to joy: "A date? That's more like it."
Let's go to [twilight] first!
"How can you come to a resort without visiting a shopping paradise! I'm already prepared to fill my shopping bags!"
"Hmm... After shopping, let's go out for a big meal, then change into a beautiful evening gown and go to the Pinocchio Theatre to enjoy Miss Robin's performance!"
Su Jinyan said with a faint smile, "Miss Robin's voice is not in good condition."
"Your wish might be difficult to fulfill."
March 7th sighed, "Oh, I really hope Miss Robin's voice gets better soon."
"At first I thought this was just a vacation, but now... I think this event must be something special!"
