Chapter 509 The journey has just begun

Author: Xibeimao

After that, everyone no longer encountered any trouble and reached the finish line very smoothly.

Of course, this is not the end. First of all, the mysterious deaths of two passengers on the train will naturally be reported. After all, one of them is a famous reporter and the other is a big entrepreneur, not ordinary people.

Although Duanmuhuai did not get too many clues this time, fortunately, the transfer records between Philip and Yinmu Hut left by the reporter were very easy to check. He informed Anthony of the matter by phone.

After the latter learned about the news about Yinmu's cabin, he immediately said that he would send someone to take over the investigation.

After all, this organization is notorious. Although Philip is a big entrepreneur, once he gets involved with this kind of organization, there will only be death waiting for him - oh, he is already dead.

But Anthony didn't forget to tease Duan Muhuai. He was in a panic while wandering around Arkham City. He didn't expect to encounter a big case as soon as he left the house. Do you want to follow this case and continue to dig deeper? Philip is a well-known entrepreneur, and Yin Mu

The hut is the kind of organization that specializes in recruiting high-class people. Through Philip's line, we might be able to dig out more information about Silver Dusk's hut.

Duanmu Huai was a little tempted by this, but in the end he thought about it for a while and chose to refuse. The reason is also very simple. After all, his plans have been made and the money has been spent. You can't waste it, right? And listen to Anthony

What he meant was that he wanted to go undercover to Silver Dusk's hut... Are you kidding me, going undercover with someone of my size? Are you looking for the wrong person?

So in the end, Duanmuhuai rejected Anthony's invitation and boarded the airship "Full Moon and Stars" heading to the foggy capital.

It has to be said that as a toy for the rich, the Full Moon Stars is really a quite luxurious airship. The entire airship only has ten cabins, which are specially used to receive distinguished guests.

In addition, there are restaurants, recreation rooms, and even spa rooms... Well, think about being 10,000 meters above sea level, soaking in a heated swimming pool, and looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside. It will certainly be a unique experience.

The appearance of Duanmu Huai and Lorena certainly attracted the attention of other guests, but fortunately they were all civilized people. Even if they were curious, they just secretly watched from a distance and had no intention of coming over. And Duanmu Huai didn't care about others.

He just looked at the scenery outside the window while drinking black tea leisurely - the speed of the airship is slower than that of an airplane, but still faster than a ship. It only takes five days at most to reach the foggy city.

I hope I won't cause any trouble again.

"Hello, sir."

While Duanmuhuai was admiring the scenery, a voice came from beside him. Duanmuhuai turned around and saw a young man dressed as a gentleman standing next to him, looking at him with a smile.

"Are you also going to Fog City?"

"Isn't this nonsense? Could this airship be able to drop me somewhere else midway?"

"Hahaha………"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, the young man smiled bitterly, and then he looked back behind him - Duanmuhuai followed his gaze and saw several young men and women on the game table not far behind.

Young people of about the same age are sitting there, looking here with nervous and curious expressions.

Hmm...could this be because he lost in some truth or dare game, so he came to find me?

"So? What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, just..."

The young man's expression was obviously a little stiff. It was obvious that standing next to Duanmuhuai at such a close distance put a lot of pressure on him - this is also normal. Any normal person who comes into contact with a tiger face-to-face without a cage would be frightened.

The legs are soft.

I saw that he also took out a handkerchief, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and tried desperately to think of how to speak.

"It's just... Judging from your appearance, is this your first time in Fog City?"

"Of course, from the looks of you, it doesn't look like it's your first time."

As Duanmuhuai spoke, he looked at the men's clothes. Including this young man, they all wore traditional aristocratic clothes. This kind of clothes is rarely seen in the outside world, and only in the fog.

In such a conservative place, people dress like this - modern people generally wear suits when they go out.

"Of course, we are students at the Royal Master's College, and we are going back to study this time."

"Oh I got it."

"May I ask you are……………"

"I'm a detective."

"detective?"

Upon hearing Duanmu Huai's self-introduction, the young man's eyes suddenly lit up.

"I really didn't expect that I could meet a genuine detective here. Are you also here for the Chain Jack case?"

"Chain Jack?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai frowned.

"Not Jack the Ripper?"

"But according to the rumors we heard, it seems that everyone in the streets is called Chain Jack. This is already a very famous rumor in the foggy city. Even our parents told us several times when we returned to school.

Be careful about your own safety…………”

"oh?"

After hearing this, Duanmu Huai became somewhat interested in them. Obviously, these students were locals and should know the rumor better than he did.

"Well, why don't you tell me what that rumor is like?"

"Well...actually we don't know much."

Next, the young man also told Duanmu Huai what he knew about the rumors about Chain Jack that was currently raging in the foggy city. The general situation was not far different, but according to the young man, those corpses were not

The one found on the street was found in the river. Other than that…………

"Why is it called Jack of Chains? Obviously Jack the Ripper's name is more traditional."

If Duanmuhuai found any doubts in it, it was about the title of the murderer. At the beginning, the file he got from Wudu said that it was Jack the Ripper. Duanmuhuai was not surprised by this, after all, he disemboweled

Hand Jack is also a famous rumor in the foggy city. It is normal to use it in similar cases. After all, it is considered well-known.

But Chain Jack is different, especially the description of "chain". At least if this rumor is true, then it means that there is a high probability that an eyewitness saw the murderer. Otherwise, how would he know that the other party has the chain?

But it is a pity that these students stayed out of town throughout the holiday. They have just returned to China to prepare for school. The rumors were all obtained by contacting local relatives and friends over the phone. Naturally, there is nothing to investigate for such second-hand rumors.

.

Duanmuhuai and the young man chatted a lot, and the latter gradually relaxed after seeing Duanmuhuai's nervousness at the beginning.

"Thank you very much."

"You're welcome. Maybe I will need your help when we get to Fog City."

"Of course, if I can help, I will do my best."

As he spoke, the young man took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over. Duanmu Huai took it and at the same time passed his own business card over.

"I'll give you one. If you encounter any trouble, you can contact me."

Soon, the conversation between the two parties was completed, and then Duanmuhuai returned to his room to rest, and the young man returned to his friend again and began to chat happily.

The rest of the journey was smooth sailing. For two whole days, the weather was calm. There was no storm or any trouble. Logically speaking, Duanmu Huai hoped to reach his destination quietly.

Unfortunately......it backfired.

On the morning of the third day, Duanmu Huai had just gotten up when he heard a scream coming from outside.

"Killing——————!!"

"………………"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai paused slightly, and then sighed silently.
