Chapter 533 Old acquaintance
"I never thought I would go to Antarctica..."
Standing at the airship field, looking at the huge airship in front of her, Mary felt that everything in front of her didn't seem like reality.
Suddenly, Professor Parmar from the History Department invited me to participate in his research meeting.
Suddenly, Professor Parmar said that he would go to Antarctica for inspection next.
Suddenly, he planned to take him with him.
It wasn't until she learned what had happened from Duanmuhuai that Mary finally understood what had happened.
To be honest, after calculating the cost of this expedition, Mary couldn't help but feel shuddering.
That was not because of excitement or fear, but simply because of the huge amount of money... It was an astronomical figure that Mary, a middle-class person, could never imagine in her life.
Not to mention, Duanmuhuai is not the kind of person who wants to endure hardships, so their voyage is arranged to be extremely luxurious. First, they take an airship from Wudu to Tierra del Fuego, and then take a boat from Tierra del Fuego to Antarctica.
.Of course, the necessary facilities have been deployed.
In fact, if possible, Duanmuhuai would like to go directly to Antarctica by airship.
On the one hand, it's because of convenience, and on the other hand... Well, do you know where Raleye is?
Raleye is located at 47 degrees 9 minutes south latitude and 126 degrees 43 minutes west longitude...yes, just west of Tierra del Fuego.
Maybe I’ll turn a corner and have a seafood barbecue with Cthulhu.
Although Duanmu Huai is not afraid of Cthulhu, he doesn't want to let himself be covered in fishy smell, right?
Unfortunately, given the climate conditions in Antarctica, airplanes are fine, but airships are a bit difficult. So Duanmuhuai had no choice but to take a boat from Tierra del Fuego to Antarctica, hoping that Cthulhu would not be stupid enough to cause trouble for him.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Duanmu."
Professor Parmar's face was also glowing with excitement at this moment, and he held Duanmuhuai's hands tightly. It would be good to have a sponsor who is rich and not afraid of spending money. If this is public funds, let alone taking an airship, they will take a boat
They all have to fly in the worst third class. After all, public funds are limited. In this kind of inspection, it is natural to break a penny in half and spend it. In terms of living and transportation, it is natural to save as much as possible. How about Duanmuhuai, directly
With a wave of my hand, I chartered an airship. With such a comfortable inspection, I won’t be tired even if I come to Parmar a few more times.
And now is the best time to go to Antarctica. Although other places are about to enter winter at this moment, Antarctica happens to be summer, and the daylight hours are the longest. Although airships are not as good as airplanes, they are much faster than ships. Take advantage of this opportunity
With this opportunity, maybe my expedition team can grab a starting line and occupy a good position!
Although most people are in high spirits, there are exceptions.
Such as Lorena.
"Huh? It's an airship again. Will something happen again?"
"Miss Lorena? What's your name?"
Seeing the usually smiling girl now grimacing, Mary asked curiously, while Miss Lorena also sighed.
"Because when the Lord Knight and I took an airship to the Fog City, a murder by a cultist occurred on the airship... It was very tiring."
"Hey?! Kill, murder incident???"
Mary was also shocked when she heard this. After all, she had only seen this kind of thing in mystery novels, never heard of it in reality!
"No, but don't worry, Miss Lorena, Mr. Duanmu has chartered the airship this time, and there are no outsiders except us..."
"The murderer last time was the doctor on the airship."
"……………………"
Hearing this, Mary had nothing to say. Instead, Duanmuhuai came over and patted Lorena on the head.
"Okay, don't worry, Lorena, I promise you, it will be fine this time."
"Why?"
Soon, Lorena understood why Duanmuhuai said that everything would be fine this time.
Because this time he booked the "Full Moon and Stars" that they took when they came...
"Due to the murder incident, the business of this airship has not been very good recently. I saw that the price was cheap, so I just rented it."
"……………………"
Looking at the airship in front of her, Lorena was speechless.
Is there such an operation???
So Lorena finally figured out why Duanmu Huai was so confident. All the crew members on the ship had been interrogated by Duan Muhuai before. Except for the ship doctor, everyone else was innocent, which meant that they should not
Another problem arises. But... Sir Knight, is it a little too much for you to stroke a sheep back and forth like this?
Although Lorena was helpless, Duanmuhuai didn't care at all, and he even introduced her to Mary.
"Look, this is the smoking room. The victim was killed here, and his blood was used to draw a strange magic circle. There are also blasphemous runes everywhere on the walls...
Oh, it seems like everything has been cleaned up now…………”
Upon hearing this, Mary's face turned pale. She looked at the smoking room as if she were looking at the entrance to hell, and even subconsciously took two steps back.
"By the way, which room do you plan to stay in?"
"Please be sure to arrange me into a guest room far away from here, thank you..."
While talking, everyone walked through the corridor and came to the observation deck, where the captain was waiting for their arrival. Seeing Duanmu Huai, the captain also showed a warm smile and saluted Duanmu Huai.
"It's been a long time no see. Sir, you are still as good as ever."
"It's okay, but you don't look very good."
"Hey, there's nothing we can do about it..."
Facing Duanmuhuai's ridicule, the captain also smiled bitterly. The previous murders had indeed brought them a lot of trouble, and simple murders were enough. But the problem was still the murders of cultists, so that at the port terminal, about "Full Moon and Stars"
Various rumors abounded on the ship, including that the soul of the killed man was trapped by evil magic and was still wandering in the cabin, ready to seize other people's souls at any time...
Those who can ride on an airship are those who are unwilling to wrong themselves, and of course they are not willing to ride on an unlucky airship. Therefore, the "Full Moon and Stars" has been operating poorly in the past few months. Even the captain is a little discouraged.
, wanted to simply resell the airship—but no one wanted it even if it was resold.
Just at this time, Duanmuhuai saw the news and contacted the captain. The captain would naturally not forget the benefactor who saved him and others from the fire and water. If Duanmuhuai and Lorena hadn't taken action, they would have come back alive, let alone
He had perished in the sea with the airship a long time ago, so naturally he agreed wholeheartedly.
There is no business now anyway, so it would be a good thing to be able to open.
The captain has decided that after this business is over, he will change the name of the Full Moon Stars, otherwise he may have difficulty receiving customers again in this life.
Chapter completed!
