On Sunday, I wanted to persuade her again, but seeing my sister's upright and fearless demeanor, I could only sigh softly in the end.
"It's good that you know what's going on."
The opening ceremony of the Harmony Ceremony is mainly for visiting guests who do not share the same faith. Although it should be taken seriously, it does not have any special significance for the family itself.
Robin's vocal condition should not be exposed, so on Sunday Japan plans to have Hanabi, who had previously volunteered herself, replace Robin and get away with it.
Who would have thought that the masked fool, who seemed to thrive on chaos, would commit such an unforgivable act!
On Sunday, the idea of having fireworks replace the performer was immediately abandoned.
However, the problem still needs to be solved.
That's how the current situation came about.
[Becoming Jia Ran's Guardian of the Robin: Can I take pictures? Can I take pictures?]
[Becoming Jia Ran's Guardian Robin: You might not believe it, but I was just about to send you a message when your greeting came. Wouldn't you call that telepathy?]
[Clear Sky: Indeed~ Bird nods.jpg]
Faced with such a playful and tacit exchange, the seasoned robin was naturally much more composed than the average girl.
She skillfully used the opportunity to change the subject, shifting the focus away from the shark photo.
[Clear Sky: So, does Sora need something from me?]
[Becoming Jia Ran's Guardian Robin: Isn't the opening ceremony of the Harmonious Music Festival almost here? As your loyal number one fan and friend, how could I possibly miss your important performance? But tickets are so hard to get!]
Although it was easy for Hacker Rabbit to hack into the system and get a few opening ceremony tickets, why spend money to buy them when there are free ones available?
[Clear Sky: Oh, so that's why. Actually, I contacted you to invite you to the opening ceremony, but... not just as a spectator, I also hope you and Xing can do me a favor.]
[Transformed into Jia Ran, guardian of the robin: Oh? Encountering some difficulties? Just say the word, for the robin, I'll go through fire and water! Pam, gun in hand, goes to war.jpg]
Qiong narrowed her eyes slightly and tapped the screen with her fingertips.
[Clear Sky: Okay, I hope you can keep what I'm about to say a secret, and absolutely not let it leak out... Can I trust you?]
[Becoming Jia Ran's guardian of the robin: Of course, you can always believe in my clear and passionate love for Miss Robin!]
This passionate yet 'distorted' declaration, as if facing the ultimate idol, made Robin purse her lips and chuckle softly, a hint of shyness and amusement flashing in her eyes.
She was completely unaware that the smile on the defensive tower beside her was gradually freezing, and the signal lights were flashing red lights wildly.
[Clear Sky: Actually... I've been having some problems with my voice lately...]
Immediately, the robin took a deep breath and began to explain why she was unable to sing due to her voice problems.
[Clear Sky: But when we first met, I found myself able to sing normally to the music played by the cat and mouse that you and the stars transformed into.]
Inviting Starry Sky to be a musician was the robin's original idea.
The unreliability of fireworks forced Sunday to reluctantly agree to the plan.
As for the opening ceremony tickets, those are minor issues.
Robin immediately promised that, regardless of whether Qiong agreed to help, she would reserve the best VIP seats for every member of the train crew.
[Becoming Jia Ran's Guardian Robin: Oh, I see. Helping out is no problem!]
[Becoming Jia Ran's Guardian Robin: But there's an old saying I'm not sure if I should say: 'It's not about being afraid of ten thousand things, it's about being afraid of...?']
[Clear Sky: What are you afraid of?]
Upon hearing Qiong's reply, the robin couldn't help but furrow its beautiful brows slightly, and its heart tightened a little.
A reply quickly popped up in the chat interface, but it wasn't text; it was a voice message.
With a light tap of her delicate, white fingertips, the robin's song flowed from the receiver, clear and gentle, carrying a hint of languid laughter:
"I'm afraid I might fall in love with you... I don't dare get too close?"
Was falling in love with you something I couldn't help?
Mayday's "Unavoidable Love".
As a singer with extremely high professional standards, Robin's first reaction is to judge the song itself.
This a cappella melody is catchy, with excellent pitch and musicality, reflecting the high quality of the song itself.
In the next instant, she suddenly realized that Qiong was clearly teasing her again with the lyrics.
Expressing feelings through song is clearly more effective at breaking down the robin's defenses than direct teasing, and a blush quietly rose to her cheeks.
The third moment...
The fourth thought...
It wasn't until the fifth second that she suddenly remembered something and hurriedly looked up at her brother beside her.
On Sunday, the formulaic, gentle smile on his face had completely frozen. His lips twitched almost imperceptibly, his eyes were dark and unfathomable, and the air pressure around him seemed to have dropped several notches.
On Sunday, I felt that agreeing to let the robin ask the stars for help might have been a mistake.
"Brother, Qiong was just joking."
The robin quickly explained, her little face slightly flushed.
"..."
This doesn't look like a joke to me at all.
If it were someone else, even if they were joking, they would still teach the other person what kind of jokes are unacceptable on Sunday!
But Qiong... he really didn't have any solutions.
He took a deep breath, suppressing the surging emotions within him:
"Then let's formally invite them to come for the rehearsal."
"Time is of the essence."
"Ah."
Robin nodded and sent the invitation. At the same time, she contacted the hotel in the real world and sent all the VIP tickets for the opening ceremony to Qiong.
[Clear Sky: I'm waiting for you here~]
Below this message was a location.
"Qiongzai, what's up?"
Seeing that Qiong had finished talking, Xing pulled Liuying over.
"Tickets for the concert...and the opening ceremony are in hand!"
Qiong snapped her fingers.
PS:
Volume 1: Chapter 582 Opening Ceremony, Tom and Jerry Band
Pinocchio Theatre.
What was once Asdena's central prison in reality has been transformed in the dream by the family into a magnificent art sanctuary, where the solemn and ethereal "Hymn of Harmony" plays endlessly.
It is a very special landmark in the Pinocchio Dream.
As the main venue for the Harmony Ceremony, which only takes place once in the entire Amber Period, the Pinocchio Grand Theatre stands apart from the twelve time zones, yet it is precisely the center around which all the time zones revolve.
You can arrive here at any time.
Wow—there are so many people!
On March 7th, shading his eyes with his hand, he gazed at the enormous, brightly lit floating platform in front of the magnificent theater, bustling with people. His bright eyes widened at the sight before him.
"The drums and gongs were deafening, firecrackers were exploding, red flags were waving, and there were crowds of people everywhere."
"Your string of words... something feels off."
The Haunted Rabbit glanced at March 7, who was jumping around excitedly, and complained.
Never mind, it's probably because it was infected by the starry sky.
"However, there are just too many people here."
Miss Hatbite clicked her tongue and sighed sincerely.
Even if you multiplied the entire population of her hometown, Sky City, by a hundredfold, it probably wouldn't match the number of people gathered here today.
And this was just the opening ceremony.
If we wait until the actual ceremony, even "a sea of people" wouldn't be enough to describe just a fraction of the sheer number of people, and...
"So many robin fans."
A gentle breeze blew softly under the dazzling lights, stirring the countless light sticks, banners, and various souvenirs held aloft by the audience below.
A clear broadcast guided visitors from all corners of the galaxy, representing diverse civilizations, into the venue in an orderly fashion.
Haitu suddenly realized that he might have overcharged for the few autographed photos of robins he had sold before.
If a few enthusiastic, easily fooled bidders are found, the price might double again.
Walter stood to one side, leaning on his cane, his gaze sweeping over the dense crowd before him, his face as serious as ever.
He stood as straight as a pine tree, but his tone held a hint of sighing:
"To take in the impossible things in dreams... But what exactly are these 'impossibilities'?"
Given the known anomalies before him, Walter felt somewhat uneasy and anxious.
The twelve time-limited cities were too large; aside from a bunch of information that resembled the work of a riddle teller or a fool, they offered no other clues.
Forget about finding the watchmaker's legacy; even if they spent all their time running around in their dreams, they still wouldn't finish a single hour!
"Alright, since we're all here for the opening ceremony, let's put those things aside for now. We still have plenty of time."
Her crimson hair danced in the wind, and Himeko lowered her head to hold down her wildly flowing hair, which unexpectedly amplified her delicate and mature charm.
"Relax and you might just find something unexpected here?"
"That's true, perhaps I was a bit too hasty."
Walter sighed softly.
Perhaps, some clues can be found in this grand opening ceremony.
After all, he had already gained something even before the ceremony officially began.
Although the harvest had nothing to do with dreams, invitations, or watchmakers.
But it made Lao Yang's right eyelid twitch wildly.
Those were two figures that looked strangely familiar to him; it seemed that Honkai was chasing him again!
Unfortunately, just as he was about to catch up and confirm, he was separated by the crowd.
There are just too many people here!
"Where are Brother Qiong and Sister Xing?"
Bai hope looked around, searching for two gray figures.
"I didn't see them. They were acting all mysterious, saying there was some surprise in store."
As Little Duck spoke, she handed the VIP ticket that Qiong had given her to the ticket inspector.
"Wouldn't they be up to some abstract, crazy thing on this occasion?"
Little March followed closely behind to the VIP seats, her little face immediately scrunching up as she thought about the trouble that Xingqiong might cause.
"..."
"..."
When this topic was brought up, even Welt and Himeko fell into a brief silence.
Himeko coughed lightly a few times and smiled:
"You'll find out soon; the opening ceremony is about to begin."
"Hmph~ I'd like to see what those two rascals are up to this time."
Despite saying this, March 7th strode forward with great energy, taking the lead and rushing towards the VIP area, her eyes already searching for her two adorable, worrisome, and anticipated children in the crowd.
