Lin Shuang: Mei, Hear Me Out!
"So here I am. The Ever-Flame Mansion has occupied the Jepella Brotherhood's territory, committing arson, murder, and looting. And I happen to be Galaxy Ranger, so it's only reasonable for me to ask them for an Invitation, isn't it?"
Acheron rarely showed a smug smile.
Since I'm going to act as Galaxy Ranger, I should at least do what Galaxy Ranger would do.
The Annihilation Gang was never a good people to begin with, and under the leadership of that Great Void, the Ever-Flame Mansion had basically never done anything good either.
Isn't it perfectly reasonable for the passing Galaxy Ranger to attack them?
That makes sense, but is that the problem?
Lin Shuang couldn't hold back any longer and unleashed a torrent of criticism:
"Hey sis, you were just lecturing me about not doing anything reckless, and now you're on your way to doing something reckless yourself?"
But Gepard shook her head seriously and said:
"I'm not being reckless. The Ever-Flame Mansion doesn't have Emanator- level combat power. To me, they're not much different from a bunch of bandits, and they're weaker than the Swarm."
In Gepard's eyes, the fearless and numerous Swarm were even more threatening.
Lin Shuang's strength was inferior to his own.
Therefore, Lin Shuang was taking a risk, while she was simply acting normally.
Lin Shuang was speechless for a moment.
Oh no, Mei found a loophole. No, I have to stick to my Gepard here!
"Putting the facts aside, you went to cause trouble for the Annihilation Gang without informing me! To me, you were taking a risk."
"..."
Gepard didn't say anything more, but smiled at Lin Shuang.
Although it wasn't the first time, Lin Shuang is really cute when she's being stubborn.
And if we could shut her up at this moment...
Lin Shuang would deliberately puff out her cheeks and then glare at you with a reproachful look.
Then, if you're just a little more forceful, you can pin Lin Shuang down and tease her a bit.
After Lin Shuang blushed, he released her mouth.
You could hear her hesitant, unconvincing complaints.
And then...
Gepard stopped thinking about it; if she continued, the broadcast would be impossible.
It's a pity they're on opposite sides of the camera now, not face to face.
"What kind of look is that...?"
Gepard's gaze was completely undisguised, so much so that Lin Shuang subconsciously adjusted her collar.
Her eyes were like those of a hungry wolf; she was practically ready to strip herself naked.
You don't even need to ask to know that this guy is probably thinking about something that can't be broadcast right now.
"It's nothing."
Gepard blushed slightly and looked away.
Although I've done it before, this isn't the first time I've seen this kind of look.
But being exposed by Lin Shuang in public was still a little embarrassing.
"Ha, do you think I believe you...?"
If this were at home, Lin Shuang would stand on the moral high ground and point fingers at Gepard.
However, since we're on the Space Station now, we should restrain ourselves.
"By the way, can you send me your location? This Train will be fixed tomorrow. When are you going to start?"
The Star Rail Express's Interstellar Jump capability is truly unparalleled.
If we weren't too far away, we might even be able to witness Acheron's fighting style.
Let's also take a look at what's going on at the Ever-Flame Mansion.
I hope I'm not really going to be killed by Acheron all by myself.

Chapter 361 Lin Shuang: Gepard, listen to my excuses!
"You're coming? Why?"
Gepard looked behind her in confusion; this place had been in complete chaos not long ago.
Only recently, after the Ever-Flame Mansion, has a little Order been restored.
However, the good points are limited; after all, one cannot expect the members of the Annihilation Gang to have any good governance abilities.
To put it bluntly...
This isn't a fun place.
Lin Shuang even wanted to drive a Train over; wouldn't that just be a prelude to a fight?
"Out of curiosity, and also because the newly launched Train needs fuel, which comes from Trailblaze. We can refuel along the route you've already taken."
As the Emanator Gepard, Mei didn't Star Route about the Star Route at all; she could break through those abundant Imaginary Energy all by herself.
Many of the places she visited were undeveloped and unconnected wastelands.
Lin Shuang casually Trailblaze one or two Star System, and then selected some Resource Planet to register as her territory.
This can be considered killing two birds with one stone.
Although Lin Shuang's family is probably the only one that Emanator to help with Trailblaze.
Are you really planning to be a Nameless, driving your own Train to Trailblaze?
Gepard thought about it carefully for a while, and then asked the question very seriously.
Lin Shuang had anticipated Gepard's question, so she answered it seriously:
"I'll have to see how well the Train is being repaired, but unless something particularly important comes up in the future, I'd prefer to travel around the universe."
"I see."
Gepard nodded.
The Self-Annihilator's identity is quite conspicuous, so following Lin Shuang and using the name of the Nameless is a good choice.
Moreover, Lin Shuang need not worry about the danger of being corrupted by Nihility.
It might be a bit inconvenient if other passengers want to board in the future.
Um...
I wish it were always just the two of them in the car, traveling together.
Considering her own situation, Gepard couldn't help but have this somewhat heavy thought.
However, this is not something that can be told to Lin Shuang.
"Oh, by the way, the Train's interior is getting renovated. Do you have any styles you'd like to incorporate, like the style of your hometown?"
The Train's interior can be easily disassembled and reassembled; Himeko didn't touch it much, only restoring the original Train's decor as much as possible.
But Lin Shuang didn't care; she could switch to a different style without any problem.
"... No need, just keep some in my room."
Gepard thought about it and realized that if the entire Train were decorated in the style she remembered, it would still be a little strange.
Besides, this isn't her Train; it belongs to Lin Shuang.
"Alright."
Lin Shuang noted down Gepard's request and planned to send it to the Staff Member in charge of purchasing, asking him to place another order.
The plan is to have Gepard be her first passenger once the Train has successfully departed.
As for Sparkle...
No rush, let's talk about it when we get to Penacony.
So—when exactly do you plan to make your move?
"I plan to observe the situation in a few days before making a decision."
Gepard made a cautious statement.
She is indeed capable, but she doesn't underestimate her opponents or become complacent.
It is her creed for traversing the Galaxy.
Seeing Lin Shuang nod, Gepard suddenly frowned.
"Lin Shuang, you haven't done anything dangerous on the Space Station, have you?"
Well, Gepard hadn't originally thought of it that way.
But this guy has too many past offenses, so just to be on the safe side, Gepard still asked him a question.
"Well--"
Lin Shuang was taken aback, and subconsciously dragged out the sound.
She didn't want to lie to Gepard, but she really didn't intend to drag Gepard into Ruan Mei's experiment in the first place.
So they resorted to burying their heads in the sand.
Gepard knew exactly what was going on when she saw that expression.
I was right!
"... Lin Shuang."
"I'm sorry, I was wrong. I'll get you here right now!"
Before Gepard could even make a move, Lin Shuang immediately backed down.
"Well..."
Gepard looked at Lin Shuang in the picture and couldn't help but sigh.
"I think you have absolutely no memory."
"Don't try to explain! I was going to say that, but you beat me to it."
"..."
Gepard stared at Lin Shuang with an unfriendly expression.
Okay, okay, so you're trying to make excuses, huh?
If I don't ask, you won't tell me. If I ask you, you'll say you wanted to say it, but didn't have time.
You've said everything, good and bad.
Do I look like the kind of naive woman who's easily fooled?
Thinking of this, Gepard's eyes flashed with a fierce light.
So much so that Lin Shuang, who originally wanted to argue a bit more, wisely chose to shut up.
Then he put on a smile, trying to calm Gepard down a bit.
Looking at Lin Shuang's silly smile.
Gepard sighed again.
Although Lin Shuang is naive, unfortunately, Gepard is definitely susceptible to her charms.
After seeing her smiling face, Gepard actually became less angry.
This was also the first time Gepard realized that she seemed to easily give in when facing this face.
But if I compromise every time...
