### Chapter 41: The Theater Group’s Outing
There’s still a long time until nightfall.
Night Lan had just spent less than an hour in the dreamscape and was unceremoniously kicked out by the Dream Narrator.
If you think about it, not having to sleep so long can be credited to the Dream Narrator.
So, there’s plenty of time left today to go out and have fun.
What should they do today?
Night Star pondered.
Tomorrow, the theater group has a performance, and all the members are already prepped and don’t need any extra training, so they’re all free as a bird.
Could they just spend the day watching Lianhua’s puppet show like before?
Night Star thought that seemed a bit off.
Not that she was tired of the puppet shows; she just felt today’s time could be used for something different.
“Hmm…”
Night Star sat in her seat deep in thought. It seems she was going to take some time to figure this out.
When there’s no work, you find yourself with too much free time needing planning.
At that moment, Kong Yu Bai and the others arrived, surrounding Night Star.
“Audience Performer, what are you thinking about?”
Night Star said thoughtfully, “I’m wondering what to do today.”
Upon hearing this, Lianhua enthusiastically suggested, “How about watching my puppet show?”
However, Night Star shook her head, flatly rejecting the idea.
“Let’s save Lianhua’s puppet show for another day; I want to do something different from usual.”
“Mm, whatever the Audience Performer says.”
Lianhua didn’t seem too disappointed by Night Star’s rejection.
After all, Night Star had spent a lot of time watching her puppet shows recently, which had already made her feel quite fulfilled.
If she didn’t see it for a day or two, Lianhua wouldn’t mind.
She knew Night Star wasn’t going to get bored.
Just then, Kong Yu Bai sat down beside Night Star, gently stroking her head.
“Have you thought of any time-killing activities? If not, how about singing together? Singing is one of the best ways to pass the time, and you can easily lose yourself in it!”
“Nah, singing is a pass too; I actually want to go out and have some fun.”
Night Star connected the dots; she didn’t want to spend today cooped up in the theater but wanted to get out and have a blast.
Book Yao also chimed in to help.
“So, do you want to go shopping, Audience Performer?”
“No, no, no! That’s way off!”
Night Star’s thoughts were becoming clearer. She had a bold idea.
“Why don’t we gather all the theater members and go out to relax?”
As soon as she said this, all the girls present looked puzzled.
“Are you talking about us?”
“No, no, no, I mean everyone! Including the Group Leader and also Guqiu, and let’s not forget about a certain non-group member, the Ghost Girl!”
Kong Yu Bai paused for a moment, uncertain, and said, “We’d definitely agree to your plan, but can the Group Leaders really join? I doubt they’d be interested.”
Night Star instantly puffed up with confidence and declared, “No problem! As long as I charm them a little, nothing is impossible.”
Hearing this, Kong Yu Bai smiled in relief.
“Yeah, the Group Leaders really dote on you. If it’s your request, they’ll surely agree.”
At that moment, Lianhua asked, “But why does the Audience Performer suddenly want to do this?”
“Because the theater group’s activities feel too monotonous.”
Night Star sighed softly.
“The Group Leaders always stay in the shadows of the theater, only emerging around the weekend to interact with the other members. It feels off; the bond among the group members is pretty weak.”
“Even though Star Eclipses doesn’t have those concepts or any complex thoughts, I’m not Star Eclipses. You all have normal human emotions! If this continues, it feels like the group will be split in two!”
“So, to enhance our bonds and keep the relationships from fading, I’m going to lead everyone out for some activities! This is also to cultivate a sense of teamwork!”
Night Star stood on her chair, striking a pose as if she was on a motivational poster.
Seeing this, Kong Yu Bai smiled gently.
“Is that so? The Audience Performer really cares about everyone! Although I respect the Group Leaders, if they don’t communicate for long, there’s definitely a sense of distance that shouldn’t be there in a theater group. You think so too, right?”
“Yup, that’s exactly it!”
Night Star nodded earnestly, looking like she was saying, “I knew you understood me!”
“And I have another idea!”
“What is it?”
Night Star flashed a mysterious smile, beckoning Kong Yu Bai and the others to lean in closer as the hush-hush began.
“It’s actually about the Announcer.”
As soon as Night Star said that, Kong Yu Bai seemed to connect the dots and couldn’t help but chuckle.
“Are you planning to mess with the Announcer during this little escapade?”
“Messed with? No, I mean transformed!” Night Star declared with conviction.
“How do you plan to do that?”
“Actually, I want to turn her into a proper girl, inside and out, so she won’t be so dismissive.”
The main inspiration came from Night Lan seeing Mo Rabbit in a completed cute form in the dream realm created by the Dream Narrator, and finding her adorable. That was enough motivation to speed up the process.
Plus, that gal didn’t have a girlfriend, no vast social circles, and certainly no thoughts of settling down—just wanted to have fun.
As a Night Watcher, she sometimes came through but mostly just slacked off, which totally called for a solid makeover!
If she could turn into a real Loli, it would definitely change her personality for the better.
In the future, asking for her help wouldn’t require too much effort either.
After all, responsible little Lolis usually help out voluntarily!
So basically, everyone wins!
A Night Watcher fulfilling their duties is far more valuable than one acting on their whims!
So Night Star’s plan was nothing short of righteous!
“Actually, part of organizing this outing is to transform… oh no, I mean, to improve the Announcer. Otherwise, if we invited her alone, she’d definitely decline.”
“Then let’s do as you say,” Kong Yu Bai said with a smile.
Lianhua and the others seemed eager to help Night Star stir things up.
Only the Makeup Artist quietly felt a bit sorry for the Announcer.
Despite the Announcer being elusive and hardly ever appearing at the theater, the Makeup Artist hadn’t spoken to her much either.
Her first impression of the Announcer was actually quite pleasant; she didn’t leave any bad memories.
So seeing such a lovely Announcer being schemed against by Night Star and the others was just too harsh.
But… that didn’t stop her from joining in.
Since it was something the Audience Performer wanted to do, supporting it was all that mattered.
The Announcer’s plight paled in comparison to helping the Audience Performer.
At that moment, the Makeup Artist’s conscience took a nosedive.
The few girls continued to whisper among themselves, discussing how to fully transform the Announcer’s male mindset into a more feminine, cute version.
Meanwhile, Mo Tu was wandering around Yun Chang City, completely oblivious that someone had set their sights on him.
