Chapter 42(1/2)

Bang bang bang——

As expected.

A quarter of an hour after Detective Swift left, the box door was knocked again.

However, unlike the previous two searches, only two young soldiers appeared in front of Ronald this time.

The two of them looked at the dim room.

Ronald, whose face could not be seen clearly, was sitting in the corner of the box. Silver-white starlight shone from the car window, spreading a layer of glow in front of him.

Just at the first glance, a vague pressure lingers in my heart.

The two soldiers looked at each other, and the taller one took a step forward:

"Is... is it Mr. Ronald?"

Ronald nodded:

"Yes, it's me."

Seeing the man in front of him admit his identity, the soldier continued politely:

"Trouble."

"Mr. Swift would like you to come with us."

At the same time, another shorter soldier added:

"By the way, are you planning to get off at Burrenwich?"

Ronald nodded again:

"That's really what I planned."

The soldier suggested:

"Then I suggest you take your luggage with you. The train is about to leave."

"..."

At the soldier's suggestion, Ronald looked down at himself.

Apart from the clothes he changed into in Montenegro, all he had left was a few coins and the "Diary of Ronald Adler" in his arms.

If I have to mention it, the toiletry set given by Nessos placed in the corner can also be counted among them.

Then......

Then there was nothing.

The word "alone" perfectly fits his current situation.

"well--"

Sighing in his heart for his poverty, Ronald simply jumped up from his chair:

"Let's go."

"I have nothing to take."

"OK."

In response to Ronald, the two soldiers immediately changed their positions, with one covering the back and the other leading the way to other carriages.

At night, bright yellow lamps illuminate the train aisle.

On one side of the corridor, passengers in luxury carriages basically choose to lock their doors.

It seems that more than three hours of parking allowed them to understand to a certain extent how to protect themselves.

- Don't do anything superfluous.

"On the road——"

At the end of leaving this carriage, Ronald looked back.

I smiled at this place that gave me a short leisure time.

————

The destination of this trip is not too far away, Ronald even visited it during the day.

That's the food truck.

However, unlike when we came to eat during the day, the dining car was already guarded by many people.

No matter the car window or the door.

Wherever you can leave this carriage, there will be at least one person standing guard.

The dining car of the Dongfeng has become a real prison, and the soldiers strictly manage everyone in it.

Immediately, the soldiers around him said to Ronald:

"Mr. Ronald, come here and sit down."

"If you feel thirsty, we can provide you with water."

"No, thanks."

He nodded towards the soldier leading the way.

Ronald sat obediently on the chair arranged by the other party, and at the same time began to look at the situation in the dining car.

During the day, the tables for dining are neatly arranged in two rows, and each position has at least two chairs for people to rest.

Except for the soldiers on guard duty.

The dining car is quite large but there are not many people in it.

Excluding Ronald himself, there were only seven tables occupied at the moment.

These people are distributed in various age groups. There are only one or two people sitting quietly in front of each table, but there are also three or four more people.

At the same time, their clothes are also different.

They can be seen by everyone from businessmen who are dignified and dignified, to civilians who only wear clothes to keep warm from the cold.

Generally speaking, the people here cover the passengers in every carriage of the entire train.

"..."

So, what about people?

In silence, Ronald put his chin in his hands and began to think.

Neither the middle-aged officer before, nor Detective Swift later was in the dining car at the moment.

This is not the attitude of calling everyone together to investigate a case.

Even if something happens, someone with a high enough status should be left here to watch.

What is it for...

etc!

Suddenly, an answer that could explain the current situation came to mind.

If there is a ‘suspect’ on the train who has a special status, an officer and a detective need to come forward at the same time to be called upon.

Then the current situation can be explained.

Immediately, a name naturally came to Ronald's mind.

——Alida Boycomb.

Before boarding the train, Nessos proposed to the woman who was going to 'chasing stars'.

According to the introduction of ‘Hong Shang’.

and discussions with other passengers during the ride.

Ronald was very sure that this was a candidate that fit his guess.

Arida, whose parents died, was born in Greed when she was young. As a result, she wandered to Entrod and fell into a war-torn childhood. However, during the war in Entrod, this girl grew up incredibly and gradually became a human being.

Known.

Currently, she is one of the most famous drama actors and singers in the world.

It was even hailed as the 'Angel's Diamond' by its admirers.

It is said that not long ago, this lady made a trip to Springs, the capital of Grid.

On the one hand, she plans to return to her childhood hometown to take in the sights.

At the same time, I have also received an invitation from the Greed royal family and will participate in a super event of unparalleled scale after next autumn.

Such a person is on board the Dongfeng right now!

If you are suspected of being a 'suspect'...

etc!
