Before long, after everyone from the Astral Express had completed their identity registration and the procedures for transporting supplies, they each began wandering around the space station.
Himeko, meanwhile, went to Herta's office with Li Qiuzhi and Asta.
Herta kept a puppet stationed here long-term, so under normal circumstances, there was no need to worry about whether she was around.
However, she had been maintaining the "Simulated Universe" with Screwllum and Ruan Mei these past few days, so these were not normal circumstances. She might not be here.

Seeing this, Li Qiuzhi took out his phone and sent Herta a message, asking her to come to the office.
Soon, the vacant Herta puppet's eyes came into focus. She looked at the office's visitors.
"Oh, it's you, Himeko. Have you brought something interesting?"
"Yes, we happened across an unknown Curio in the last world. We don't know what it does yet, so I'll hand it over to you to study later."
Himeko nodded lightly.
"All right, we can discuss that later." Herta looked at Li Qiuzhi and said with a smile, "Maintenance on the Simulated Universe is progressing well. Come test it in a few days."
"No problem." Li Qiuzhi nodded. He was quite interested in Herta's Curios. Once he had earned a few more bonds, he would exchange them for a nice addition to his collection.
He glanced at Asta, then continued:
"By the way, Madam Herta, there's something I'd like to collaborate with the space station on."
Li Qiuzhi explained his wish to connect Teyvat with interstellar civilization to help it develop further. His preliminary plan was to cooperate with the space station
