The Modern Age of the Mysterious

Chapter 509: people who sing

Although he admired Moonlight's conjecture very much, Sean shook his head slightly.

This conjecture is very bold, but there are several unreasonable places.

First, if you want to replace the carpet, you definitely need the cooperation of the crew.

But according to Sean's observation, the state of the conductor and the conductor is by no means a show.

This judgment comes from the reporter's eyesight and the intuition brought by the size of the soul.

Secondly...

"We are Queen-level explorers." Sean reminded.

Yueguang seemed to understand something, smiled bitterly, and seemed to temporarily give up the conjecture just now——

After all, ordinary people are more likely to choose the inexperienced Jack-class if they want to use the explorers to disguise their crimes.

However, the possibility of encountering a combination of three Queen-level is very small.

The cunning fox may choose to deceive the meat from the crow's mouth, but when it encounters the lions...

They are more likely to stay away.

"I'm very sorry, Soloist." Sean nodded encouragingly, "I like your guess just now, based on reality and daring to imagine.

"However, it seems that we can't rule out that this is a mysterious event."

After a round of discussions, the investigation returned to its original point.

The team unanimously agreed to try to find witnesses to the disappearance.

In order not to cause panic, he asked Jerry and two other conductors about the work of the passengers along the train.

When they had eliminated all the passengers in the premium carriages and came to the ordinary carriages to start inquiring, the Northland Express slowly stopped.

The blizzard was still outside the window, and almost only large flakes of snow could be seen.

In order to avoid the avalanche burial that the blizzard may cause, the steel behemoth of the Northland Express stopped in front of the tunnel.

The bright headlights illuminate the dark tunnel, which makes one wonder where the tunnel leads.

Fortunately, this long-bodied beast crouching in the snowy night has a sufficient amount of coal in its power core, which can provide enough heat and electricity for the entire train...

However, for some reason, in the premium compartment, which is closer to the front of the car, there is enough heating that passengers can even take off their coats.

On the other side separated by the two dining cars, the closer to the rear of the ordinary carriage, the heavier the cold air intruding from the window.

People had to wrap their coats tightly even when they were sitting in the train.

During this helpless and irritating waiting, the conductor found a passenger with an unusual look in the eighth carriage.

The passenger was politely invited by the conductor to the connecting corridor outside the two dining cars - this place was guarded by the conductor and was not allowed to enter, and the door leading to the ordinary dining car was also blocked by cloth, temporarily serving as a case-handling office for the explorers.

After entering this corridor, the passenger saw four masks looking at him...

Four explorers!

He first felt a panic, and then suddenly realized that the four people in front of him were trying to solve the strange situation he saw, and he couldn't help but have a desire to talk...

"Don't panic." Sean's voice was calm. "The conductor told me that you were here before..." Sean pointed to the ground, "I saw some strange sights."

The man was thin, with brown hair, and his plaid suit was a bit worn.

After seeing the strange scene, he uphold the idea of ​​keeping quiet and didn't tell anyone, but just let the thrilling scene torment his mind...

Unexpectedly, he could confide to professionals at this moment. He nodded again and again, and said in a trembling voice, "I saw that it was dark in the dining car, and when it turned on again, the people in the car disappeared!"

Sean frowned: "Don't worry, speak slowly - how did you see it, what did you see..."

The man swallowed his saliva and began to recall all the details.

"About half an hour ago, I ate at the dining car..." He pointed to the ordinary dining car behind him, not the empty high-end dining car facing him.

"I thought it was a little hot in the car, so I went to this corridor to smoke..."

Sean nodded slightly and encouraged the other party to continue.

"While I was smoking, I heard the passengers in the premium carriage start to sing."

"Singing?" Moonlight asked confirmingly. "They started singing? What song?"

The man swallowed again, with panic in his eyes, and said with trembling lips, "What they sing is...

""friendship forever"."

"friendship forever"?

Sean frowned suspiciously.

Gu Xie A very classic song. Cheerful people always sing this song.

"and then?"

"Then..." The man's eyes, looking directly in the direction of the empty dining car, began to let go, "I saw a lot of smiling faces, Mr. and Miss, all smiling.

"They were holding wine and cigarettes, looking so happy..."

"I was also infected by their emotions, and I was humming that song softly.

"Then, I saw that the dining car suddenly went dark."

"Did it get dark?" Sean and Moonlight looked at each other.

Jerry, the conductor, seemed to be used to the weird atmosphere. He raised his hand and said, "There was a two-second power outage before...

"It's an old problem with the power system..."

When Jerry said this, Sean suddenly remembered - when he was resting in the box after dinner, the lights were indeed dark for two seconds.

But the time was too short, and he didn't care at all.

"And then, what happened when it got dark?"

"Darkness came very quickly." The man didn't dare to look directly at the dining car any more, and looked at Sean as if asking for help, "I thought at first that the gentlemen and ladies were all frightened by the sudden darkness, so the singing suddenly stopped.

"Then, when the lights come on again...

"The dining car is empty.

"Empty... there is no one."

When the man said this, a terrible silence began to permeate the corridor.

"I couldn't believe it, so I looked through the window, leaned closer, and opened my eyes wide to see." The man half-opened his mouth dryly, "Really...

"It's all gone."

The conductors turned pale.

Due to the memory of the sightings, the man's soul was impacted, and his heartbeat began to weaken.

His eyes were scattered, he staggered, and he seemed to be about to fall.

Moonlight quickly played Ning Xin's tune, and a wisp of smelling salt wafted from the cufflinks, which made the man wake up and stand up again.

After listening to the man's story, Sean fell into deep thought...

A dining car with no ghostly traces.

The people singing.

Sudden darkness.

The collective disappearance after the restoration of sight...

He opened his eyes~www.readwn.com~ and a possibility appeared in his heart again, but it was not suitable to describe——

He was worried about another shock to the ordinary people present.

He had to silently describe the new conjecture in his heart:

"Our judgment on blindfolding has put the cart before the horse.

"The disappearance of people is not the point.

"The point is, those people in the dining car didn't exist from the beginning."

"It's just that the power outage interrupted some mechanism and made them disappear like a TV screen."

Someone is running a group of illusions on this train?

who is it? Why do you want to do this? !

"more importantly……"

Thinking of the retired non-commissioned officer who had a scar on his face and lost his left hand, who came to pay tribute... James' face, Sean's breathing became faster.

To hide from his eyes, ordinary means are impossible.

He looked around and didn't dare to trust anyone except his teammates...

Another extremely troublesome situation!
