Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 225 The Freight Train Station Haunting Incident

The middle-aged man in his 30s had a pair of big ears, and he looked a little funny. He was the young man that the Tamara family had been cultivating for the past ten years, and he was already a Sequence 30 in his 5s.

His name was Bennett Tamara, and he was also the person in charge of secretly investigating the disappearance of the entire team in Backlund.

The two subordinates who were watching you talked to each other, and told you about the experience just now.

In fact, they discovered yesterday that someone seemed to be staring at the two of them, and this was finally confirmed tonight. Their first reaction was that this was Hobert's hired helper, and they had been exposed.

But what happened afterwards completely changed their views.

Bennet asked, "The lawyer said he was going to report you?"

"Yes." A subordinate said.

"That is to say, the other two people are also here to follow?"

"We think so."

Bennet squeezed his chin and thought for a while: "Who could it be?"

"We checked yesterday. That lawyer is a 'well-known lawyer'. He just offended a lot of dignitaries. Could it be someone they sent?"

"It's possible." Bennet continued: "Are you sure he said he wanted to report them to the 'Mechanical Heart' instead of the 'Nighthawks'?"

"determine."

Bennet said: "It seems that he can indeed be ruled out. Since a 'well-known lawyer' will be watched by many 'eyes', it is difficult to carry out some actions secretly."

Most importantly, according to Bennet's analysis, the Nighthawks must have participated in the action to destroy the Tamara family team, so the suspect they were looking for must have close ties with the Nighthawks.

However, out of caution, Bennet still ordered: "Take time to investigate the lawyer's beliefs."

It's just that this investigation is not important, he said again: "Today we found a stranger who appeared on Rose Street on the day of the accident, you go follow him tomorrow."

……

The other two stalkers headed for the West District in a carriage.

The experienced coachman circled a building several times and sent the two of them to a luxurious villa after making sure that no one was following them.

The owner of the villa is a Backlund businessman who often does business in the Fenepot Kingdom, because he often relies on the Fenepot government, so after communicating with the business partners of the Fenepot Kingdom, he From time to time, it will provide some convenience to the people of the Fenepot embassy.

Today, the ambassador of Feneporte happened to be a guest at the villa, so he personally listened to the reports of two subordinates in a reception room. After listening to what happened, Ambassador Tim said: "I see, in the future you No need to follow Hobart."

According to the clues obtained by Tim before, Hobert is a member of the mercenary club and has a channel to get rewards from two cultists.

And for a long time recently, Hobert didn't show any abnormalities, and it can be completely concluded that he didn't know that the third person who died in the textile factory was a Fenerport businessman, or an intelligence officer.

It's just that after Ambassador Tim returned to the banquet, he suddenly realized that there was something wrong with one detail. According to the intelligence, Hobert seemed to be getting closer to the Nighthawks, but why did he go to the "Mechanical Heart" to report it?
Also, as a wild Extraordinary, shouldn't one try not to affect oneself when encountering other Extraordinary?Why did he take the initiative to meet him?
Ambassador Tim realized that this matter was not yet conclusive, so he had to test this young lawyer when he had an opportunity.

"Mr. Ambassador?"

The words of the owner of the villa brought Tim back to his senses: "Huh?"

"Should we enjoy some violin or piano pieces?" The owner of the villa asked politely.
Tim stood up with a smile and said, "It's a pleasant thing to digest the food in your belly with music."

"Mr. Ambassador's taste is always beyond our reach."

……

Hobert overlooked one thing. Although the four people who were following were stupid, the people behind them were all good people.

His seemingly wise move so far has actually left some flaws.

It's just that neither Bennet nor Tim took a Sequence 7 seriously, so they didn't pay much attention to it after they had doubts.

In any case, Hobart was safe now.

After using "True Vision" to confirm that no one was watching, Hobert immediately took a carriage to the freight train station in the suburbs.

Watching the coachman drive the carriage away, Hobert rolled into the train station.

……

Grove is a guard at the freight train station. The freight train station is closed to the public after [-] pm, and there will be trains departing or entering the station after that, but they will no longer accept business.

There are several large cargo warehouses in the railway station, as well as many tracks, where idle or spare trains and wagons are placed.

The entire train station is very large. In order to prevent some thieves from sneaking in at midnight, in addition to the fixed guards in the freight warehouse, there will also be guards like Grove who walk around the train station every hour at night.

Grove was smoking a worn-out pipe, holding an oil lamp, and tightened his apparently ill-fitting coat.

Backlund's nights in late autumn are already a bit cold, especially in the late night when it's foggy. After a round of inspection, there will be dewdrops on his hair. If you don't wipe it off quickly, you will easily get sick.

Today, as usual, he patrols according to the usual route.

Suddenly, Grove saw that there seemed to be a light ahead, and he knocked the soot on the side of the car: "These little bastards, don't let me catch you!"

There are many street children who will climb into the wagons of the railway station to spend the night in order to avoid the police and the cold wind.

Normally Grove would turn a blind eye, but if someone was warming up in the wagon, it had to be stopped.

woo~
Grove had just taken two steps forward when suddenly a gust of evil wind blew in mid-air, almost blowing the lamp in his hand away, and the surrounding wagons were also blown, making a "creaking" sound.

"It's so evil!" Grove said, he was a little hesitant to move forward.

woo~
A gust of evil wind blew from the front again. While Grove wrapped his coat tightly, he saw an abandoned small locomotive slowly rising under the gust of wind.

Grove opened his mouth wide, thinking he was wrong, he rubbed his eyes, raised the light, the little locomotive had already risen to the height of a person, but it stopped here suddenly, as if it couldn't "fly", and Fall slowly.

woo~
There was another gust of wind, and the little locomotive slowly rose again, this time higher, and did not stop until it was about thirty feet (more than 9 meters), and then slowly fell again.

At this moment, Grove seemed to realize something. He held up the lamp and looked into the sky. He couldn't see anything in the dark night sky, but he always felt that there was something terrifying "lying" in the sky.

That terrifying thing seemed to be devouring the little locomotive in front of me?

Suddenly, the oppressive feeling disappeared, and the flames in front also disappeared.

Everything returned to normal again, the little locomotive lay there quietly, and the surrounding wagons did not move.

Grove stood until his legs became stiff, and then he muttered, "What an evil!"

After saying this, he walked backwards, not daring to turn his back towards the little locomotive, and he didn't dare to come out to patrol again tonight.

The next day, the suburban freight train station was rumored to be haunted.
