Star Rail: The Researcher Me Joined the Chat Group

Chen Mu naturally rose to his feet and headed to the Space Station to find Herta, intending to discuss the Longevity Medicine with her.

After all, Scientific Research had never been something one could pursue in isolation.

Even a genius like Chen Mu was no exception.

When he encountered a bottleneck or something he did not understand, exchanging ideas with others was equally important.

Chen Mu had often discussed matters with Herta during his research.

Sometimes, he also exchanged ideas with certain members of the Genius Club.

In that regard, Chen Mu was very grateful to Herta.

It was thanks to Herta that he had joined the Genius Club in the first place.

However, just as Chen Mu arrived outside Herta's Office and was about to open the door, his movement froze.

A startled expression appeared on his face.

Because he heard arguing coming from inside.

Herta's furious voice rang out. "Huh? Himeko! You actually dare make such a request of me! Are you kidding me?!!"

"I'm not joking. I mean every word, so I hope you can agree, Herta," Himeko said calmly.

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! It has always been me, Herta, who took treasures that caught my eye from others. How could anyone take my treasure from me!" Herta's attitude was resolute.

March 7th said, "What about the Stellaron?! Wasn't your Stellaron taken by the Stellaron Hunters? It's inside Stelle now! You've already had one treasure stolen, so what's the harm in having another one taken!"

Herta choked on her words, shot March 7th a glare, and said emotionlessly, "Either way, I will never agree to this. If it comes down to it, just take Stelle with you! At worst, I'll stop researching her."

"Regarding this matter, don't you think we should ask the person involved for his opinion? Herta, he's still so young. You can't expect him to spend his entire life with you on the Space Station, can you? It would be good for him to go out and see the world," Welt persuaded from the side.

"What's wrong with spending his whole life on the Space Station? With his talent and my ability, even if he stayed here his entire life, I could let him see the whole universe and make his name resound throughout it." Herta remained unmoved.

"Exactly, exactly! Don't even think about it. We won't agree to whatever it is you want, so you'd better give up already," Asta said from the side, cheering Herta on as well.

Stelle spoke up. "Why won't you agree? Himeko said it's clearly a good thing."

Himeko spoke again. "Herta, you should understand that your way of doing things is actually wrong..."

"Whatever. No matter what you say, I will never agree to your request and let him leave," Herta said.

Chen Mu: "..."

The argument continued inside Herta's Office.

Seeing this, Chen Mu's mouth twitched, and he found himself at a loss for words.

What was going on here?

Why were there so many people here?

It looked like everyone had come.

And... the Train Crew seemed to be arguing with Herta and Asta over something?

The Train Crew had only helped the Space Station not long ago.

Shouldn't this be the honeymoon period?

Chen Mu was starting to get a headache.

With the atmosphere so tense, he did not even know whether he should go in now.

After thinking it over, Chen Mu sighed and decided to enter anyway.

"Yo, what are you all talking about? Why are things so tense?"

Chen Mu deliberately used a relaxed tone, though his expression was even a little unnatural.

However, the moment they heard Chen Mu's voice, the room instantly fell silent. Everyone turned in unison to look at him.

Chen Mu: "..."

The corner of Chen Mu's mouth twitched again.

What was this about?

They were putting a lot of pressure on him.

"Xiao Mu."

The moment Asta saw Chen Mu, she hurried over and hugged his left arm.

"Chen Mu."

Star was no less willing to back down. She ran over after Asta and hugged Chen Mu's right arm.

Even as they clung to Chen Mu, the two of them did not forget to glare furiously at each other.

Chen Mu: "..."

What was this?

Had the plot already skipped straight to a Shuraba?

He did not remember dating either of them.

If it had really jumped straight to a Shuraba, wouldn't that mean he had gotten the short end of the stick?

Chen Mu's entire body stiffened. Seriously, spare him.

However, someone soon cleared up his confusion.

"Chen Mu, you're here!"

March 7th skipped over to Chen Mu and said with a grin, "Everyone was just discussing inviting you onto the Stellaron Express."

Upon hearing that, Chen Mu immediately understood and relaxed.

So that was what this was about.

Still, even after understanding, Chen Mu was somewhat taken aback.

After all, he had not expected Himeko to suddenly want to invite him onto the Stellaron Express.

Chen Mu turned his gaze toward Himeko.

Himeko gave him a beautiful, gentle smile.

What was going on?

Shouldn't they have invited him long ago if they wanted to?

Why wait until now?

Could it be that they felt he had been too young before, but now that he was old enough, they had started considering inviting him?

Chen Mu had nothing to say.

Still, for the entire Train Crew to come invite him, and even seem to be competing with Madame Herta for him, was honestly a bit too grand.

"Yes, Chen Mu. Himeko and I both believe that, at this point, compared to staying at the Space Station, you would be better suited to traveling the stars with us and broadening your horizons. That is why we came to Madame Herta. However, she did not agree to our request. What do you think? The Stellaron Express sincerely invites you to join us."

Welt stepped forward and asked Chen Mu.

"Me? I don't really mind..."

Chen Mu gave a wry smile upon hearing that, offering a rather irresponsible answer.

It could not be helped.

He genuinely did not mind.

If this had been before he transmigrated, he definitely would have wanted to travel with the Stellaron Express.

But now, after staying at the Space Station for so long, he had adopted a rather casual attitude toward boarding the train or not.

After all, even if he did not board it, he planned to set up a waypoint on the Stellaron Express, so he could go there whenever he wanted.

That had been the purpose behind creating the Teleportation Array in the first place.

With the Teleportation Array, going there or coming back was incredibly convenient.

"Did you hear that, woman over there? Chen Mu said he doesn't mind! That means he doesn't object to joining the Stellaron Express!" Star glared at Asta as she spoke.

"Hah? If you're putting it that way, then I'll say he doesn't object to staying at the Space Station either!" Asta refused to back down as well.

Chen Mu: "..."

Watching the two of them seem about to start arguing again, Chen Mu was completely speechless.

What are you two doing... I remember you getting along very well in the game.

To stop the argument from escalating again, Chen Mu pulled free from the two of them and said without hesitation:

"We can talk about that later. Herta, I actually came to see you about something. Come with me first."

Madame Herta was taken aback by his words.

Then she nodded and followed Chen Mu.

After the two left.

Stelle and Asta exchanged a glance, then both snorted coldly.

The others stood where they were, looking at one another.

P.S.: Please send flowers! Please leave ratings! Please support with data! Please, please, please!!!

Elsewhere.

To avoid being disturbed, Chen Mu brought Herta to an empty laboratory.

Most of the time, the two of them conducted their research and discussions in Herta's office, since people rarely went there.

But today was clearly not suitable.

Following behind Chen Mu, Herta still wore an utterly furious expression.

She had obviously been thoroughly angered by Himeko.

Though it might have been a little too cruel.

Chen Mu still could not help finding Herta's anger amusing, and he let out a laugh.

After all, Herta's anger was a sign that she cared about him.

Shouldn't he be happy about that?
