Live Q&A: I am the Star God of Heaven

Chapter 563 The Day You and the Stars Disappeared 29

Honkai Impact 3 Otto: "It seems that Stargazing has also been very perceptive to discover the secret that the captain is hiding."

Yuanshen Guizhong: "It would be strange if I didn't notice it. It's always so perfect. If Mr. Stargazer couldn't even notice this, how could he become the Sage King?"

Star Dome Railway Tibao: "Hehehe, the captain probably didn't expect that others have already noticed it!"

The video continues.

Guanxing continued: "No matter what is going to happen, you can tell me and I will face it with you."

After listening to Guanxing's words, Captain Dongyuan shook his head and said, "It's useless... You won't believe it."

Stargazing: "So many things have happened, and I can guess the reasons behind them. Even if you tell me something absurd, I will accept it."

Captain Dong Yuan: "...If I say that I have experienced what is happening next several times, will you believe me?"

Stargazing: “I believe it.”

Captain Dong Yuan: "...Mr. Guanxing, please stop teasing me. I found it hard to accept this kind of thing at first, so how can you trust me so easily..."

Guanxing: "On the one hand, I had expected this. On the other hand, it is because of you, Captain, that I choose to trust you. Now that things have come to this, Captain, please stop hiding it. There is indeed a hidden danger in Huangyue City during the Lantern Festival, right? Could it be that someone has placed explosives?"

Captain Dong Yuan: "In fact, Mr. Guanxing only guessed half right. There are too many people here, let's discuss it in a secluded place. Follow me."

I pulled Guanxing into a secluded alley, from where we could just see what was happening on the street.

Captain Dong Yuan: "Mr. Guanxing, please keep an eye on the street outside. Based on last time's experience, a man wearing black clothes and holding a black umbrella selling lanterns will pass by here in a while."

"The lantern seller?" Upon hearing this, Guanxing was a little confused. Captain Dongyuan continued, "Yes, the lantern seller changed the formula of the candles and replaced the candles in the lanterns with stone candles."

When Guanxing heard this, his expression suddenly became shocked: "Stone candle?! But isn't that something that is very likely to explode…"

Captain Dong Yuan: "That's right. This special candle has an ordinary candle on the top and a stone candle on the bottom. Only after burning for a period of time will the lantern explode."

"At this time, those lanterns made of stone candles have been sold to the citizens of Huangyue City. Even the lanterns hanging in Qianxing Pavilion were mostly made by that craftsman."

After listening to this, Guanxing's expression became very serious and solemn: "Is he planning to blow up Huangyue City?"

Captain Dong Yuan: "Just as Mr. Guanxing expected, there is indeed a hidden danger in the lantern festival in Huangyue City. Based on the experience of last time, we must extinguish the lanterns in the whole city as soon as possible and organize the people to evacuate Huangyue City quickly. Only in this way can we prevent the explosion from happening."

...I finally spoke out. I don't know what the consequences will be, but at least it will be better than if I acted alone.

Cosmic Wanderer Gao Xuan: "Indeed, if you speak out, we can all work together to find a solution. I once saw a person who kept starting over and over again, but he couldn't tell anyone and could only bear it on his own."

Honkai Impact 3rd Kiana: "There really is such a person! How dark must his life be!"

Space Wanderer Gao Xuan: "It's OK. Although the process is a bit bitter, I don't know what the ending will be. I just took a few glances and left."

The video continues.

Stargazing: "So the Captain has found a solution... Then, you said before that I only guessed half of it, what is the other half?"

Captain Dong Yuan: "What Mr. Guanxing has not guessed yet is that someone will assassinate you at the Lantern Festival."

I chose my words carefully to avoid making the message too shocking, and Mr. Stargazer breathed a sigh of relief.

Stargazing: “…So that’s it.”

Captain Dong Yuan: "Mr. Guanxing, don't you believe it?"

Guanxing shook his head and said, "No, I believe you. I thought something devastating would happen, but I didn't expect it to be just an assassination."

After hearing what Guanxing said, Captain Dongyuan looked a little incredulous: "Assassination... just?"

Guan Xing: "My identity is prone to attracting fatal disasters. Over the years, I have become accustomed to it."

Mr. Guanxing made a gesture, and the next moment two people walked out of the darkness. Unlike ordinary guards, this guard was holding a lantern and dressed in Qixi Festival attire, with only the Huangguo pattern faintly visible on the collar.

Hiding among the crowd, lurking in the shadows - these are the well-trained shadow guards of the Huang Kingdom. They are able to fight ten enemies at once and only obey the orders of the Sage King.

Stargazing: "I'm sure you all heard what I just said. One of you should inform Rita as soon as possible without wasting a moment; the other one should go with me and stay alert at all times."

The two shadow guards said in unison: "Yes!"

The two of them slipped into the darkness like shadows, so fast that I could hardly tell whether they had left. Under the protection of such agile shadow guards, they should have been safe, but Mr. Stargazer was still stabbed... In other words, the opponent's skills were at least better than those of the shadow guards.

Genshin Impact Zhongli: "Then is there another possibility that the two shadow guards may have rebelled, or one of them rebelled and killed the other loyal one."

Xingqiong Railway Feixiao: "Two shadow guards are protecting me closely. Regardless of whether they can beat the other party, they have to come out to protect their master when he is in danger! However, in the last reincarnation, these two shadow guards did not appear at all."

Mingchao Changli: "In this case, four things could have happened. One is that both shadow guards betrayed. Two, one of the shadow guards betrayed and killed the other. Three, both shadow guards were killed by Gray Snake in advance. Four, the shadow guard is most likely the Gray Snake pretending to be a shadow guard. After all, Gray Snake has many clones, so it is not difficult for him to send one to pretend to be a shadow guard."

Honkai Impact 3 Kevin: "It's useless to talk about this now. I believe the next video will give us an answer."

The video continues.

Stargazing: "Captain, are you sure that craftsman will pass by here?"

After hearing this question, the captain answered affirmatively: "I'm sure!"

The flower boat carrying several-meter-high lanterns slowly passed by, causing bursts of exclamations from the crowd.

Captain Dong Yuan was puzzled and said, "...Strange, why hasn't he passed by here yet? It should be about time."

Stargazing: "Instead of waiting here, why don't we go out and look for him? Maybe something happened that caused him to stay somewhere."

Captain Dong Yuan: "Something has happened..."

Theoretically, everything that happened next would be exactly the same as what I had experienced before. But why did he suddenly change his route?

Captain Doubuchi: "There is no reason for the craftsman to change his route... This shouldn't happen. Something must have happened. On this street... something has changed."

I searched my memory quickly. My habit has always made me more likely to pay attention to small things, but I didn't expect that this unconscious observation would come in handy at this time.

Captain Dong Yuan: "...What is the difference..."

Stargazing: "Unusual phenomena always mean more clues, and it is a big mistake to speculate before getting the facts. Let's go, manager. It's time for us to take action."

Captain Dong Yuan: "Mr. Guanxing, you are not thinking...!"

Stargazing: "That's right, let's go catch the craftsman who sells the stone candle lanterns."

Captain Dong Yuan hurriedly stopped him after hearing this, saying, "No...it's better to let the guards handle this matter. Mr. Guanxing should return to the palace immediately."
