Chapter 51: Amway
After the black flying object was destroyed, relevant departments sprang into action, sending personnel to collect the debris for inspection.
Other hired star organizations quickly searched the surrounding area for any suspicious characters.
He Li Xia wandered around with a tangible compass in hand, not detecting any suspicious energy fluctuations—at least in this area, there were no other suspicious Star Holders.
Claire trailed behind her, muttering to herself.
“That thing was definitely controlled by someone somewhere, probably not nearby.”
Makes sense.
Those folks probably knew that the hotel area was heavily guarded, filled with powerful individuals, and even had members of the Order of Sequence protecting the Qing Liao Songstress.
If they sent someone in, that would just be a dumb decision.
And bombarding the place with high-grade weapons would be the most fail-proof plan.
After all, if they turned the hotel where the Qing Liao Songstress was staying into rubble, it would be a guaranteed win.
Claire let out a breath, recalling the earlier scene.
That black hole cannon infused with star power was truly terrifying.
Who knows which powerful person was behind it, causing a weapon that could destroy everything to just poof out of existence.
Could it have been someone from the Order of Sequence?
In the star organization hired by the songstress’s company, there shouldn’t be anyone of that caliber.
Truly powerful Star Holders wouldn’t even need to take on such commissions—they could join the Order of Sequence or even bigger organizations.
Unless some people just enjoy pretending to be weak and living the simple life, like rich kids taking a summer job at a factory.
“Whoo~”
Claire exhaled again and suddenly remembered Night Star and Kong Yu Bai going to see the Qing Liao Songstress.
“I wonder if they met her.”
Switching perspectives.
After confirming that the Qing Liao Songstress was fine, Mi Lei You and Moon Sings exited the room.
Night Star and Kong Yu Bai reappeared.
“Wow~ two really nice ladies, just as I thought.”
Gotta admit, first impressions really do matter.
The members of an organization sometimes reflect the vibe of that organization, and impressions work the same way.
In the past, when Night Star encountered Jian Ji’an from the Holy Church during the group leader timeline, he seemed cold and ruthless, had a weird aura about him, and wasn’t even a pretty girl—definitely gave off bad vibes.
Now, seeing the two female members from the Order of Sequence, both were gorgeous girls, not odd at all, and just seemed much more pleasant.
Qing Liao turned back to look at Night Star and Kong Yu Bai and curiously asked, “Did you make that thing disappear just now?”
“Yup!” Night Star proudly admitted.
“That was Yu Bai’s power, pretty impressive right? Don’t even mention something as trashy as that! She could make a whole city disappear without breaking a sweat!”
Kong Yu Bai pinched Night Star’s cheek in mock disapproval and said, “It’s not that easy, you know.”
“But you could do it, right?”
“Um… yeah.”
Even though it sounded a bit outrageous, an Extraordinary Star could indeed make a gigantic city vanish from existence.
However, with Kong Yu Bai’s mental power ranking A or above, she only had two-thirds of her Existence Interference left, compared to Night Star’s one-third, making her unable to do many things.
This kind of power was indeed terrifying, but Kong Yu Bai didn’t want to use it for anything else.
Her only ambition was to enjoy every day with Night Star.
Hearing their conversation, Qing Liao’s eyes sparkled with interest.
“That’s amazing.”
Then Qing Liao recalled Night Star mentioning the Rising Sun Theater Group.
In Night Star’s description, a particular memory quickly popped up in Qing Liao’s mind.
The Rising Sun Theater Group sounded much like a strange event she encountered while sneaking out in Yun Chang City.
She once stumbled upon a mysterious theater group performing, which left a deep impression on her, especially after an eerie incident followed that event, making it even more memorable.
Who would have thought that was the Rising Sun Theater Group Night Star mentioned?
And Blank-senpai was a singer in it, while Night Star was among the audience performers—seemed pretty neat!
But Qing Liao was more focused on what Night Star said about most of the members being Star Eclipses.
She had some knowledge about Star Eclipses, and the most striking metaphor was associating them with mentally unstable individuals capable of wielding nuclear weapons—unpredictable anomalies that could spark social chaos at any moment, which definitely sounded dangerous.
However, from Night Star’s description, the Star Eclipses in the theater group didn’t seem to fit that dangerous mold, sparking her curiosity.
She had seen performances from the Rising Sun Theater Group in Yun Chang City before, and the performers looked impressive—not like troublemakers at all.
Just as Qing Liao was digging into her memories about Star Eclipses, Night Star excitedly chirped, “Oh, oh! I should show you a recording of a Grand Performance by the Rising Sun Theater Group! You haven’t seen it, right?”
“Grand performance? Doesn’t ring a bell.”
Qing Liao had been abroad lately and didn’t know much about the domestic situation, let alone the underground world.
She was indeed curious about the Grand Performances Night Star mentioned.
Night Star promptly opened the Night Watcher’s official website, locating the recorded Grand Performance.
At first, Night Star felt a little embarrassed that someone had filmed it, but soon shrugged it off.
After all, when it came to promoting the Rising Sun Theater Group, there’s nothing better than showing someone a performance video!
As the video started playing, Qing Liao’s gaze became entranced, quickly spiraling into an immersive experience.
After a short while, she finished watching two recordings of the Grand Performance.
“That looks so fun!”
Qing Liao was highly interested; this was more impressive than her own concerts.
Using an entire city as the stage with all the citizens as the audience—now that was a spectacle! Even the world’s top songstress couldn’t do that.
When compared, her performances seemed a bit lacking.
If she could perform on that scale, it would definitely have more impact than her usual concerts!
Noticing Qing Liao’s intrigued expression, Night Star invited her, “So, Qing Liao Songstress, how about collaborating with our theater group? Stay here for a month, and we’ll provide the grandest stage for you—an unforgettable experience, wouldn’t that be fun?”
“That does sound… tempting.”
“And you sticking around here might attract some bad folks’ attention; you could be a target for a terrorist attack at any moment! Why not come visit our theater? The Rising Sun Theater is arguably the safest place in the world!”
“Visiting is fine, but staying long-term would be worrisome. Maybe it’s best to pass on that.”
“Such a pity.”
The three of them then began discussing music, letting time slip by unnoticed.
