Chapter 318 Your Earth, My Earth, Seems Different
Chapter 318 Your Earth, My Earth, Seems Different
"Miss Tingyun has gone on a long trip."
"It will probably be a long time before they can come back."
Eve spoke first, before March 7th.
"Huh?" March 7 looked at Eve with some confusion.
At this point, Walter Yang added, "Yes. The Luofu catastrophe has subsided, the port has reopened, and Miss Tingyun has taken on a mission from the Tianbo Bureau to travel to other worlds again."
Hearing this, March 7th understood what Eve meant. "Yes, yes, I heard that the world they're going to this time is very far away, and the mission is urgent, so they asked us to deliver it."
Mengming didn't think much of it and believed them. "Oh, that's a pity. Well... please wait a moment."
As the sound of boiling tea filled the air, Mengming served the tea she had brewed a few moments later.
There were five cups of tea in total, with billowing steam rising from the rims, filling the air with a fragrant aroma that was truly delightful.
"Following her suggestion, I improved the varieties of Lin Yuan Chun, Yin Shan Lv, and Chao Lu Xiao Ya, and created a new tea drink with a sweet, refreshing, and lingering flavor. I specially named it after my sister, 'E Yun Ge' (闕云歌)."
Mengming served five cups of tea to each member of the train crew.
"Since she can't enjoy the food, I'll invite everyone to have a drink."
"Thank you, shopkeeper." Eve politely picked up her teacup and took a small sip.
Instantly, the aroma of tea filled her mouth, and the sweet and refreshing taste spread across her taste buds, flowing down her throat. She felt as if she were surrounded by the aroma of tea, and she felt extremely comfortable.
“Excellent tea,” Eve said, putting down her teacup.
March 7th followed Eve's example, picking up her teacup and taking a big gulp. "Wow, this tea is really good, better than anything I've had before!" Her eyes sparkled with joy.
Walter Young also took a small sip, nodded slightly, and showed his approval.
After drinking it, Himeko looked thoughtful. "I think I've found a bit of inspiration for coffee."
"Would you like to try it when you get back on the train later?"
"Ahem, no thanks." A hint of hesitation flashed in Walter's eyes.
"Okay, okay." Hoshino put down his teacup, looking forward to Himeko's coffee.
Seeing everyone's reactions, Mengming smiled with satisfaction. "It's good to have everyone's approval."
"Sigh, I really hope that Sister Tingyun can also drink this cup of tea."
Mengming stared blankly at the tea varieties laid out on the table.
She missed Sister Tingyun very much when she thought about how she had encouraged her and helped her.
Just then, a melodious tune drifted in from outside the store, seemingly floating into the shop.
Everyone looked out curiously and saw a person dressed in strange clothes playing a harp. The ethereal and beautiful music blended with the aroma of tea, making the atmosphere in the shop even more warm and pleasant.
"What wonderful music!" March 7th closed her eyes and hummed softly as she listened to the melody.
"I never expected to find a bard here."
Himeko was also feeling the melody of the music; she hadn't expected that there would be bards here in Luofu.
The bard, dressed in green and wearing a poetic beret, gently stroked his fingers, creating a wondrous melody.
“After the great disaster, interstellar travel routes in Luofu have been opened up considerably, and many people have come to Luofu,” Walter Yang speculated.
"I know, but let's enjoy the music for a while." Himeko sipped her tea and gently closed her eyes.
“Yes, it’s a truly free melody.” Hoshino also looked over.
“Freedom… a familiar word.” Eve stared blankly at the person outside, lost in thought. “Unfortunately, you are not him….”
That guy who's always slacking off, maybe he's drinking like this now?
Amidst the aroma of tea and music, the train crew enjoyed a moment of tranquility and beauty, temporarily forgetting the fatigue and hustle of the journey.

Changletian.
"Wow! This tea is really good!"
On March 7th, I stood on the main street of Changletian, stretched, and felt my whole body relax.
“Yes, you even fell asleep while you were drinking,” Eve said from the side.
"Haha...it's because the music is so good." March 7th scratched his head.
Eve sighed. "Yes, music."
"Thinking back now, I really miss that guy's music," Eve remarked.
"That guy? It seems Miss Eve also has a complicated past." Himeko looked at Eve curiously.
"I guess so," Eve nodded slightly.
Eve was about to say something when Bluebird suddenly appeared from the alleyway beside her.
"It's you guys? Have you been free lately, spending your time wandering around the Immortal Ship?" Qingque was quite surprised to see them.
Sure enough, everyone knows how to slack off.
"Qingque, it's been a long time! How have you been?" March 7th asked with concern.
"Lately? I've been eating well and sleeping well, but my luck with the cards is just bad~" Qingque helplessly spread her palms.
"Including the one this morning, I've been hit by the cannon 62 times, but I haven't won a single time."
"6, 62 times? That's too many, isn't it?" March 7th was somewhat shocked.
"Right, right? I also find it strange. Could it be that something good is about to happen to me? So they're trying to balance things out for me?" Qingque asked expectantly.
She could already imagine winning the Changletian lottery jackpot and living a comfortable early retirement.
"Um...maybe..." March 7th didn't know what to say.
"By the way, Miss Qingque, where do you usually play cards?" Walter Yang asked earnestly.
Why are you asking this?
Seeing Walter Young so serious, Qingque frowned immediately.
Does this mean he's going to report himself?
“I… want to join too,” Walter Young said seriously.
At that moment, everyone stared at Walter Young in shock.
"Uncle Yang, why do you like playing this?" March 7th asked in confusion.
Walter Young thought for a moment, "It was a long, long time ago, I don't know if the rules have changed."
"I'm already itching to try it."
“Uh…” March 7th fell silent.
How come we didn't notice this scene with Uncle Yang before?
“Mahjong, right?” Eve suddenly said.
"Mahjong? What's that?" Qingque looked at her with a strange expression. "This is called Imperial Jade, or Jade Tiles for short."
"Mahjong!" Walter Young's eyes widened suddenly; he was incredulous.
"Miss Eve knows about this too?"
“I know a little, but I don’t play often,” Eve replied briefly.
"Could it be that Miss Eve is also from Earth?" Walter Young asked incredulously.
Although he knew that Miss Eve was a Herrscher, he never imagined that she was a Herrscher from Earth, just like himself.
After all, the Herrscher energy emanating from Miss Eve is somewhat different from the world she lives in.
But now I never expected that Miss Eve would also know about mahjong.
Could it be that they are actually from the same hometown?
“Earth? That’s an ancient name.” Eve thought back carefully.
Back in Teyvat, her memories of her first time traveling through time completely merged with those of the Tree King. Therefore, her 20 years of memories on Earth seemed insignificant compared to the Tree King's 6000 years of memories, and were thus easier to overlook.
"It really is!" Walter Young exclaimed excitedly.
"Strange? What are you two talking about?" March 7th looked at the two of them, puzzled.
"How is Earth now? Is the Honkai still ongoing? The Void Treasury..."
"Wait, what are you talking about? Honkai? Void Treasury?" Eve looked at Welt Young in confusion.
