Eight’s Crown

  Chapter 229 is only a temporary fluctuation (300 monthly ticket plus more)

In the use of [breathing [Fa·Ghost] With the skills of blood ghost and strange power, Lucia's speed has almost reached a speed of more than 100 meters per second. Compared with the high-speed rail, it is not weaker at all, and because it has become a ghost, there is no need to worry about physical consumption. , He can sprint all the way, maintaining a top speed of 100 meters per second every minute and every second.

Under such extreme speed, the wind swept across Grey’s face like a knife, blowing her hair messy, but also making her completely afraid to lift the head from Lucia’s back. Come, or I'll be blown down all at once.

After three minutes into the high speed, the two caught up with the Magic Eye train on a grassland.

The reason why the train stops here seems to be waiting for additional guests. The guests of the Magic Eye train are scattered all over the country. Not everyone will go directly to the abandoned station in London to get on the train, and The branch got on the train on the way of the magic eye train.

However, in the event of a murder, the number of guests who were originally scheduled to board the train was also much less. Most of them were just dispatched ambassadors. These ambassadors were introduced into the third carriage by the magic eye train. Among them, there seems to be a carriage specially prepared for the envoy.

"Very good, you finally caught up."

After seeing the two of them, Cowles hurriedly greeted them into the car.

The train waited another half an hour on the grassland, but after not waiting for a guest, it finally set off again and continued along the UK.

Lucia separated from Grey and the others and returned to her room.

Bazette was still lying on the bed and did not wake up from a coma.

"At that time, my thoughts should be that I didn't want to disappoint Grey's expectations..."

Lucia sat on the sofa, thinking and feeling her inner changes. .

At the end of the Twin Pagoda incident, he obviously had a good opportunity to take the Holy Spear, but he didn’t do that. He had never understood his inner heart at that time, but because of the previous and After Grey's conversation, he was suddenly awakened.

Just like Grey did not want to live up to the village’s expectations, at that time Grey regarded him as a benefactor and felt guilty for him. Although it was just a blunder, Lucia felt that she should have been thinking She couldn't take away her holy spear in front of such Grey, let her down.

"So, I should have gained affection at this time... But, why?"

Lucia carefully felt her inner heart. The excitement that came out was nowhere to be found, "Why don't I feel that feeling at all now?"

If he is asked to snatch Grey’s holy spear now, Lucia will realize that he I am afraid that there will be no hesitation, and will never care whether Grey will be disappointed, ruthlessly snatching the holy spear.

It seems that the emotional fluctuations that emerged from the Twin Pagoda are really just temporary fluctuations, like even a dead water will cause ripples due to the falling of a stone, but in the final analysis it is still stagnant water. , There is no slight change in nature.

"Is it really just a momentary fluctuation..."

I can’t say whether it’s disappointment or something else, but at this moment, Lucia did feel an inexplicable emptiness. As if a hole had been opened in the chest.

"It's okay, there will be the first time there will be a second time... I just have to continue to play the character..."

After all, he doesn’t have any Other ways to gain affection, if that is the case, just continue on this path of role-playing.

At the very least, this is also a probability.

…………

Time soon came to the 3rd day.

Early that morning, when everyone came to the dining car to eat, the envoy of Hirori Kanano finally brought back information about the serial murder case seven years ago.

"The Clock Tower does still have information about the case seven years ago."

Ruri Kano said on the dining car: "The dead who were killed seven years ago, and Ka What Loeb said was that their heads were chopped off by unknown attacks, and what is amazing is that these dead, without exception-are all the holders of the magic eye."

"Are all magic eye holders?"

Lucia, Calleber, Olga Marie, and the others gathered their gazes on Kanano Riri's body, and their eyes were different.

"Yes, some are first-rate magicians with magic eyes, and some are ordinary persons who are born with noble colors, but from the results, they are indeed all magic eyes holders without exception."

Ruri Kanano gave an affirmative answer, and then said: "Then there are questions about the bosses of Calleber and Tereza who were investigating the case at that time... Unfortunately, the clock tower was not There is no relevant report, maybe it was erased, or maybe it was someone who had no control at that time."

"No..."

Caleb fell into silence. in.

He thought that as long as he got the information from the clock tower, he could find out who was behind the scenes and manipulate him, but he didn't expect that the opponent's wrist seemed to be higher, and he couldn't find any relevant information at all.

"Your Excellency Liangyi, what do you think?"

Calleber cast his gaze on Lucia, and a tentative look appeared in his eyes. He seemed to be looking forward to Lucia. Can you find relevant clues?

"I need to do some preparation."

Lucia groaned for a while, then made a vague answer to Calleber, then turned and left the dining car.

Up to now, the incident has probably been connected in his heart. This incident itself does not contain much knowledge capacity. It only needs logical thinking ability. It happens that he is here. The ability in this aspect has been good.

But now the key is that even if he has figured out the generality of the matter, if he can't find the other person, it is meaningless.

"It should be right in the car, but who is the other party disguised as?"

Lucia's gaze is on the door of the room from one to the fifteenth one after another. After passing, my mind became contemplative.

Soon, he walked into the second room.

"Teacher II, I have some questions I want to ask you."

…………

Time passed, and soon came the afternoon of the 3rd day .

There are only two or three hours left before the auction.

Caleb sits in a chair in the lounge carriage, but feels restless.

It’s almost time for the auction to start. If you haven’t found the person behind the scenes before the start, then his magic eyes can’t be saved on him, and he can’t avenge him. Up.

What you are afraid of.

The conductor Rodin and Auctioneer Leondra, the two came together in front of Caleb.

"Guests, it’s almost time to hand over the magic eye."

The thin-faced train conductor Rodin said in a tone without ups and downs: "We will be the magic eye for a while. The agent manager of the train will remove the magic eye for you and provide you with a pair of ordinary eyeballs. Please rest assured that there will be no side effects."
