Honkai Star Rail: Developing Mobile Games on Xianzhou

Little Gui's livestream.

After experiencing [Akivili's Dream Bubble] at Dr. Edward's place.

She continued to wander aimlessly around Oti Mall.

At that moment.

A commotion broke out near the station.

A male and female Bloodhound from the family were chasing a silver-haired girl.

"Don't even think about running! You stowaway!"

The silver-haired girl looked around.

Upon spotting Stelle.

Her face lit up with joy.

She hurried over.

"S-sorry! Please help me..."

Guinaifen's lips curled into a smirk.

[Protecting a beauty is my duty!]

Pointing at the girl, she said, "Folks, isn't this the girl who appeared in Sleepless Night?"

"The one who was happily playing with fireworks."

"Hehe, I never thought I'd run into her so soon after arriving at [Golden Hour]!"

"Don't worry, sis, no one can hurt you with me around!"

Guinaifen was brimming with confidence and boldness.

Exuding the aura of a true leader.

The battle began.

After defeating the Bloodhounds.

A middle-aged man who appeared to be a superior officer approached.

"Alright, alright, boys—that's enough."

The man glanced at the girl and scolded the two Bloodhounds, "What are you two doing? Open your eyes wide and look—is this girl the stowaway we're after?"

The female Bloodhound was puzzled, "Huh? W-who is this?"

"Don't you know? Brown hair, gray vest—this is the security officer sent by the family to oversee the Charmony Festival."

"O-oh, I see... Reporting, sir, we were apprehending a stowaway—this girl, she's very suspicious, it must be her!"

The man's expression darkened, "Nonsense. Take a closer look! The eyewitness report said it was a silver figure, and you brought me a silver-haired girl? Are they the same thing? And you even got into a fight with our guests?!"

"Enough, scram. I'll handle this."

The two Bloodhounds quickly fled.

The middle-aged man approached.

Addressing Stelle and the silver-haired girl, he said, "My sincerest apologies for the embarrassment, esteemed guests."

"I am Gallagher of the Bloodhound Family, and those fools are my young hounds."

"They're still young, inexperienced, and misunderstood my orders, mistaking a distinguished guest of Penacony for a criminal... Ah, such a breach of etiquette. On behalf of the Bloodhound Family, I extend my deepest apologies to both of you."

[The silver figure is...?]

"The Bloodhound Family serves as the gatekeepers of the Dreamscape, responsible for a range of security tasks here, including apprehending stowaways."

"We received a notification that some lawbreakers have infiltrated Penacony under the guise of the festival. With the Charmony Festival approaching, there are indeed many with ulterior motives..."

Gallagher glanced at the young girl.

Seeing that she was still somewhat uneasy.

He reassured her, "Don't worry, miss. I believe this is all a misunderstanding. How could such a lovely girl be a stowaway?"

The girl breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you. If it weren't for your help, I really wouldn't know what to do."

Guinaifen nodded in agreement.

She chimed in, "Exactly! How could such a cute girl be a stowaway?"

...

"A stowaway? Someone silver? Could it be Silver Wolf?"

"Silver Wolf just has 'silver' in her name. There's nothing silver about her style."

"Considering the OP of 'Sleepless Night,' the stowaway must be Sam..."

"It's definitely Sam, no doubt about it."

"The Bloodhounds of the Family must have something wrong with their eyes. How can they confuse a mech with a young girl?"

"Protecting the beautiful girl is my duty!"

"This girl is so adorable, there's nothing dangerous about her at all. She looks completely harmless. What are those Bloodhounds even doing?"

"Gallagher has a better eye for these things."

"Right, how could it be her?"

...

The Reverie Hotel.

In the hallway.

Firefly found a resting area and sat down.

Coincidentally.

There was a TV playing Little Gui's live stream.

Firefly quietly watched it here.

Seeing herself appear in the plot so quickly.

She was slightly startled!

The live stream chat was all defending her.

Firefly scratched her head, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Sorry, everyone... I really am that stowaway..."

If she hadn't encountered the Trailblazer or Gallagher to help her out at that moment.

Then she...

Might have really set the sea on fire!

And what she said next.

Made her feel even more guilty.

"Although the Bloodhound Family mistook me for a stowaway, I'm actually a local—Firefly, an artist from the Iris Family! Though I'm just a temporary actor..."

"When I'm not performing, I also take on reception work around Glaux Avenue. If you don't mind, I can show you all sorts of interesting things! As long as I work hard, maybe I won't be investigated..."

Firefly sighed.

Ah...

This must be part of Elio's [script].

There's no helping it...

She didn't mean to deceive everyone.

...

"Outside the shopping center is the square. Come here—I'll treat you to something delicious~"

"This is the place. Have you heard this saying—in dreams, hunger is the most precious spice."

"Here you'll find most of Penacony's specialty foods, like Clock Pizza, Oak Cake Rolls, Alfalfa Salad... and the classic SoulGlad! Take your pick, it's on me!"

In the live stream.

Guinaifen was full of excitement and curiosity.

"Everyone, Firefly is actually treating me to a meal!"

"I won't hold back then!"

"I'm going for the most expensive stuff!"

"Firefly's budget is 20,000 Credits, and the total cost of the food here is exactly 20,000!"

Just as Guinaifen was about to order one of everything from the [Clock Diner].

She saw the note about [Firefly's Budget].

[The meager savings of Firefly, a new artist from the Iris Family. Since it's someone else's money, let's use it sparingly.]

Guinaifen was taken aback.

Suddenly, it dawned on her!

Although she had offered to treat, there was no need to actually spend all her private savings, right?

For Guinaifen.

Firefly's voice and appearance gave off a vibe that made people want to cherish and protect her.

It was like meeting a naive little sister for the first time.

At that moment.

Following Firefly's recommendation, she only ordered one Oak Cake Roll.

"Have you decided? Then I'll pay."

"I love the Oak Cake Rolls from this shop the most; I have one every day."

[What about the calories?]

"N-no problem! After all, we're in a dream..."

"Let's eat while we walk, to the next stop~"

Guinaifen nodded in satisfaction.

Even though it was just a game.

It felt as if she had really eaten a piece of Oak Cake Roll, so sweet and fragrant.

Meanwhile, many players expressed their feelings in the barrage.

...

"She really is, I'm crying!"

""Almost Gone"."

"I want to protect this smile!"

"Ahhh I didn't see this line, I spent it all! I'm so guilty!"

"I thought I had to buy everything to proceed with the story, but after hearing Firefly's tone, I deeply regret it!"

"Wow, streamer, you're so kind! You didn't spend all her money! I'm going to give you a big push!"

"And you, my friend, you are the true Praise of High Morals."

...

Seeing the barrage filled with guilt and self-reproach.

Firefly found it somewhat amusing and also a bit touching.

Because of the storyline in "Honkai: Star Rail," she could really appear as Firefly...

Known by many players.

This was something unimaginable before.

She was in a good mood at the moment.

So she opened Little Gui's live stream on her phone.

And posted a comment: "Everyone, don't blame yourselves so much, Firefly probably has more savings than this, feel free to spend~"

It was meant as a kind reminder.

Unexpectedly.

As soon as these words were out.

They immediately drew a wave of criticism from many players!

"What are you saying? What are you saying?"

"I ask you, what are you talking about? It's not your money, so you don't feel the pain, right?"

"You have no heart at all!"

"I just tried it, after spending everything, Firefly's tone was almost crying, this must be her hard-earned savings!"

"Friend, do you think you are Firefly herself? How dare you speak for her like this!"
