As a Researcher in Star Rail, I Joined the Chat Group

That Chen Mu is just like Herta.

He is a primary target of interest for the Stellaron Hunters.

"Rest assured, we won't need to be imprisoned there. According to Elio's script, Chen Mu will be leaving the Space Station for a period of time soon. That will be our chance," Kafka said.

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Silver Wolf was momentarily stunned, a look of surprise crossing her face.

That otaku.

He was actually going to leave the Space Station for a while?

The reason she said that was because, to her knowledge, that guy had basically never left the Space Station ever since he arrived.

What could be the reason for this departure?

He wouldn't leave without a cause.

Silver Wolf was filled with curiosity, but she also knew that now was not the time to indulge in it.

The top priority was to seize the opportunity to complete their mission.

She immediately promised with full confidence:

"Then there's absolutely no problem."

Chapter 13: A Massive Fortune

Space Station.

Following the successful development of the Teleportation Array, the entire Space Station was naturally plunged into a frenzy of carnival and celebration.

As the protagonist of the event, Chen Mu was likewise surrounded by a large group of young women, their eyes filled with admiration and adoration as they chattered excitedly about one thing or another.

Herta also made a special appearance to find Chen Mu and offer her congratulations.

As a genius.

And he was a young, handsome genius, at that.

It was only natural.

Chen Mu was incredibly popular at the Space Station.

He was never short of young girls who admired him.

Regarding this.

Even if Asta gritted her teeth in frustration, there was nothing she could do.

After all, wasn't her younger brother being so popular proof of his excellence?

Therefore, while Asta's heart was filled with pride, she also felt a sense of helplessness.

Of course.

When facing the girls at the Space Station.

Chen Mu always maintained a gentlemanly demeanor from start to finish; he was polite and kept his distance, never crossing any lines.

To Chen Mu.

Only Asta was special.

This made Asta even happier.

As expected of her younger brother, he was truly disciplined!

This research project was of great importance.

It wasn't until the commotion had lasted for a long time that Chen Mu managed to escape and return to his room.

"Finally, it's over."

Chen Mu lay on his bed, exhausted, and sighed.

He was still getting used to everyone's enthusiasm after every successful research project.

Thinking of this.

He casually opened the Chat Group.

He had felt someone @ing him in the group earlier, but at the time, he was either conducting experiments or at the banquet.

He hadn't paid it any mind.

Now, he finally had the time.

Right.

I should check in first; I haven't signed in yet.

With that thought in mind, Chen Mu's consciousness entered the Chat Group.

[Ding, group member Chen Mu has successfully signed in and received 100 Points.]

Hoshino Ai: "???"

Hoshino Ai: "What? Another 100 Points? Are you the Goddess of Luck herself or something?!!"

Tokisaki Kurumi: "I don't understand... Is there some kind of trick to signing in? Please teach us, oh great one."

Gotoh Hitori: "Adding a +1 to that request..."

Chen Mu: "What kind of trick could there be? I just tapped it casually. And as for being the Goddess of Luck, I'm a guy, a guy."

Chen Mu couldn't help but smile as he watched everyone in the Chat Group acting silly. These guys were still as interesting as ever.

Hoshino Ai: "Really? No high-tech method to boost luck, or perhaps you used technology to influence the Chat Group somehow?"

Chen Mu: "Really, really. How could something like that even exist?"

Chen Mu was left speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

Hoshino Ai: "Hmph, hmph~ Then I'll believe you for now, even though I only got 22 Points from my casual tap today."

Hoshino Ai: "Anyway! You finally popped up! @Chen Mu! You haven't been active for so long, I thought you'd run off!"

Chen Mu: "???"

Chen Mu was stunned. Why would he run off?

Kochou Kanae naturally understood what Hoshino Ai meant and couldn't help but chuckle, asking in the group as well.

Kochou Kanae: "However, Mr. Chen Mu really hasn't been active for two days. You didn't even sign in yesterday. Although I know you were busy, it's such a pity to waste the sign-in Points."

Hoshino Ai: "Exactly, exactly! If you only sign in once every two days, wouldn't your luck end up just like ours? What were you researching anyway? It must be so important if you didn't even have time to sign in. Did you succeed?"

Chen Mu: "I was researching space teleportation technology in the universe. It's already a success."

Hoshino Ai: "???"

Gotoh Hitori: "???"

Tokisaki Kurumi: "???"

Kochou Kanae: "???"

What on earth?

Space Teleportation?!!

The value of Points was plain for all to see. Those who had originally felt it was a pity and a waste that Chen Mu had missed a day of check-ins were stunned speechless upon hearing this.

That was space we were talking about...

Is everything the big shots play with this high-end?

And he actually succeeded?

We know you're strong, but do you have to be strong to this extent?!!

Compared to Space Teleportation, even if Points were magical, a mere hundred Points were worth absolutely nothing.

Hoshino Ai: "My apologies, I was speaking a bit too loudly just now."

Tokisaki Kurumi: "I finally understand the gap between people. The first thing I want to do every day is check in to the group, while Mr. Chen Mu doesn't even care about the Points from checking in at all."

Gotoh Hitori: "Spa, Space Teleportation, and he actually managed to research it? If this were to be exchanged in the Chat Group, how many Points would that even cost..."

Kochou Kanae: "I reckon even if we sold all of us off, it still wouldn't be enough..."

[Ding, group member Chen Mu has uploaded Space teleportation technology and received 1,000,000 Points.]

Hoshino Ai: "???"

Gotoh Hitori: "???"

Tokisaki Kurumi: "???"

Kochou Kanae: "???"

It could actually be exchanged...?!!

And it was 1,000,000!!!

Everyone's eyes widened, their heads buzzing.

When had they ever seen such a massive fortune?!!

For a moment.

The Chat Group exploded instantly.

Chapter 14 Hoshino Ai: You Won't Even Respect My Intelligence

Hoshino Ai: "What the hell?"

Hoshino Ai: "So, uploading things to the Chat Group earns Points?"

Tokisaki Kurumi: "Not only does it earn Points, but it's one million! One million! With that many Points, how much Time would that be..."

Date A Live World.

Tokisaki Kurumi was so shocked that she accidentally let her own situation slip.

Fortunately, at that moment, no one was paying attention; everyone's eyes were drawn to Chen Mu's massive amount of Points.

Gotoh Hitori: "...(⊙_⊙)?"

Tokisaki Kurumi: "One million... that's one million Points!!! I'm so envious!!!"

Kochou Kanae: "It is truly hard to believe. This is the first time I've seen such a huge amount of Points in the Chat Group. Everyone is still working hard to check in for those few dozen Points, and then Mr. Chen Mu suddenly pops up with a million..."

Hoshino Ai: "...I get it now. No wonder Chen Mu didn't care about the hundred Points from checking in. He was waiting for this, pulling out a million in one go! Otherwise, no matter how busy he was, he would have had time to check in!"

Hoshino Ai: "Wuwuwu, as an old member, I'm still struggling for those few dozen or hundreds of Points, and the newcomer Chen Mu just got a million Points in one shot. I admit it, I'm jealous. My mentality is shattered, everyone."

Tokisaki Kurumi: "..."

Who isn't?

In the Date A Live World, hearing this, Tokisaki Kurumi's face stiffened, and she felt like she was weeping on the inside.
