"Even if you say so, how can we stop it? We can't just stop the train in front of everyone, right? We'll be taken away by the Public Security Bureau right away."

Ling pinched her chin as she thought of a solution, while Zhe also touched his forehead in distress.

"The safest way is to report it to the police, but then Nicole and the other cave thieves won't be able to hide their identities..."

"It is suggested that the train can be intercepted in the hole."

"Oh, that's right, this smart butler is right. The outside world can't directly detect the situation inside the cave, so we won't be caught!"

Chapter 28 Nekomata's Tail

"Well, if we enter the dead end now and block the train on its path, it's theoretically possible."

Zhe was analyzing the feasibility of this matter, while Ling was looking at the computer screen beside her.

"Fairy, can you tell me the real-time location of the train?"

"Affirmative. Calculating a safe route to the target train."

"Wow, this smart butler is amazing! He's truly worthy of being the legendary rope maker Phaethon! Meow!"

"Ahem, anyway, since this is an emergency, let's just find a way to stop the train in the dead end."

Zhe deliberately avoided the topic of Nekomata, and at this moment, our warm-hearted Fairy also made another suggestion.

"It is recommended that the owner purchase a commercial life insurance policy before leaving."

"Thank you so much, Fairy."

Zhe simply ignored Fairy's suggestion and without further ado, he immediately set off and had Nekomata take Ies to the dead end cave.

"Hey, Nekomata, can you hear me?"

"Yeah, I can hear it. That's amazing! This is the first time I've met a rope maker who can communicate directly with the void. No wonder Nicole said you are the best rope makers in all of Elidu."

"Thank you for your confirmation. Next, we will implement the plan to stop the car. Are you ready?"

By this time, Zhe had also completed his preparations and was ready to synchronize consciousness at any time.

"Well, of course no problem, just leave it to me."

After Nekomata confidently patted his chest to make the promise, the plan officially began.

"Brother, be careful!"

Ling looked at Zhe with some worry. After all, neither of them had been to a dangerous place like the Dead End Cave.

"Well, don't worry, wait for my good news."

After Zhe said this, he immediately started synchronizing his consciousness, from the familiar black screen to opening his eyes.

……(delete)

"Hmm? Nekomata, what are you doing?"

"Oh, it's Zhe! Wait a moment."

When Nekomata heard Tetsu's voice, he immediately stopped and put him down.

Don't blame Nekomata for being like this. After all, in her opinion, Zhe is a serious cat addict... (deleted)

……(delete)

But this place is a dead end. If we fall into the same state of no resistance as before, it will be dangerous.

Zhe, who was put down in such a hurry, bounced twice on the ground, patted his butt calmly, and looked at Nekomata who was pretending nothing happened.

Well, after all, it was my previous behavior that caused the other party to be so vigilant now, so let it go this time.

Although he would never take the initiative to do anything rude when he was working, it was better to prove it with actions.

However, not long after the man and Bangbu continued their actions, a huge noise suddenly came from the distance, and Fairy also gave a reminder at this time.

"Warning, high-risk units are approaching, please avoid them."

High-risk unit? The only person in the Dead End Hollow who could be described in this way was the infamous Dead End Butcher.

"Oh no! It's the monster Billy mentioned earlier. We need to hide quickly!"

Nekomata looked at the huge monster approaching from a distance, and without caring about anything else, he picked up Zhe in the form of Bomb beside him and hid in a secluded corner.

Feeling the extremely terrifying fluctuations of ether energy, the cat instinctively wanted to shrink its body to avoid being discovered.

……(delete)

……(delete)

But how could there be wild cats in a place like this? So naturally... (deleted)

Then she warily glanced at the Dead Road Butcher who was walking away, and when she found that he didn't notice her, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Because he had one hand free, Zhe no longer felt suffocated and immediately let go of the tail in his hand.

At the same time, the ashamed and angry cat straightened the hair on its tail and tried to lift it up as high as possible, as if to avoid being caught by someone again.

The cat's favorability increased by 5 points, the current favorability is 40 points, and the emotional value gained is 200 points, the current emotional value is 4200 points.

Zhe couldn't help but feel embarrassed after seeing the other party's action. It was indeed his mistake this time, but the main reason was that Nekomata had strangled him too tightly just now.

"Let's keep going..."

"Um……"

Because time was tight, the two of them naturally could not stay too long because of such a small matter, and then continued on their way.

But it wasn't long before the two encountered obstacles again.

An abandoned train suddenly appeared on the originally planned route. It looked like it had been torn into pieces by a giant monster and thrown here.

"Meow, what's going on with this carriage? Rope maker, are we going the right way?"

Nekomata glanced down at Tetsu at his feet, who shook his head.

"No, our route is correct. This abandoned train car must have been dumped here as a wreck."

"'Throw'? This power is too terrifying, meow!"

The cat was still sighing, and Zhe was thinking about how to solve this problem, but the thoughtful Fairy also offered suggestions again at this time.

"I suggest that since the owner is short and the client's name contains the word 'cat', we can try to squeeze through the gap."

"What's up with this smart butler? I'm a Neko-shi person, not a cat, and this gap is so small, I can't get through! No matter how hard I try, there's no way I can get through, meow!"

Nekomata first refuted Fairy's proposal, and then seriously considered the situation at hand.

"If it were me, it wouldn't be that difficult to climb over, but with Bomb, it's impossible. Besides, there are deep pits all around caused by sinkholes, so it's unrealistic to go around them."

At this moment, a voice that sounded particularly endearing came from the other side of the carriage.

"Well, um, please tell me..."

Chapter 29 Colleen

"Meow! Who's talking? Is it from the train car? And it's a cute female voice!"

The sudden sound startled Nekomata, but it was obvious that train cars could not speak, and Nekomata's words also confused the other party.

“Ah, ah?”

"Miss, we are in a hurry now. Could you please lift your feet to let us pass?"

I have to say that the cat is very talented in humor, and the way he acts funny is very interesting, but if he continues like this, the person on the opposite side of the train car will probably feel strange.

"Okay, Nekomata, stop playing tricks and don't scare the lady across the carriage."

As soon as Zhe finished talking about Nekomata, the girl on the opposite side of the train compartment started asking.

"That... the investigator from the Hollow Investigation Association?"

"Well... it's industry practice to introduce yourself before asking about someone's identity. Miss, you know that, don't you?"

Zhe listened to the soft and weak voice on the other side and tried to soften his tone so as not to scare the little girl opposite.

"Hey, Yuan, is that so? I'm sorry, I didn't know about this rule. Um... My name is Kelin, and I'm an employee of a housekeeping company..."

Is that Corinne? From what I remember, she seems to work for Victoria Housekeeping? And she seems to be a girl with extraordinary strength, whose appearance completely contradicts her abilities.

In Victorian Housekeeping, an organization where all members have horror movie attributes, Colleen seems to correspond to Frankenstein in horror movies.

In addition, Ailian also belongs to this organization. By the way, the salary of Victoria's housekeeping is particularly high.

While Zhe was thinking, Kelin on the opposite side continued to introduce herself.

"Gemini, Rh-negative blood, likes to clean, citizen certification number is..."

"Uh... there's no need to go into so much detail. Anyway, why did you end up in a place like this?"

Fortunately, Nekomata interrupted Karin's self-introduction in time, otherwise she would probably have told him the color of her underwear today.

"Just now, a very dangerous corpse passed by here, and my companions and I got separated while trying to avoid it.

I don't have any data on 'Carrot' here. If you two are investigators, you must know the way out of the void, right? Please, could you take me with you?"

Kelin's slightly pleading tone was something no one could refuse, so the few of them started to discuss it.

"So she's just an ordinary person who got lost in the void. I don't know why a housekeeper would end up in the void, but... how should I put it? Should I help her?"

While Nekomata was speaking, she also looked at Zhe. She really wanted to help this weak little sister, but Zhe was the rope maker after all, so whether to help or not depended on the other party's intention.

"Although I really want to help this lovely little sister, we don't have the ability to break into this carriage, so naturally we can't go over and take her with us."

Zhe deliberately raised his voice when speaking so that Kelin on the other side could hear him.

"Um, um, I'm sorry I overheard your conversation without your permission... Could you please move to the other side of the train so I can accompany the investigator?"

"Meow? Do you have any way to get us through?"

"Not bad, almost done. Oh, please wait a moment, I'll be right there."

"Hmm? Is she going to crawl over from underneath?"

Because Karin's voice sounded young, Nekomata's first thought was that the other party would crawl in from the gap underneath.

However, it was obvious that she guessed wrong.

Not long after she finished speaking, a violent mechanical sound suddenly came from the opposite side of the carriage, as if a large electric saw was started.

The last sharp saw tooth went straight through the outer shell of the train car, and Zhe quickly pulled the cat away.

Even if he didn't help, the other party would be able to dodge with his ability, but...

Nekomata's favorability increased by 10 points, and the current favorability is 50 points.

The electric saw blade that had just cut through the outer shell of the train car was swung a few more times, and a passage was violently opened.

The part of the shell that was sawed off fell to the ground, and the cat was so frightened that it hugged Zhe beside it again.

Because he didn't use that much force this time, Zhe could really feel Nekomata's soft embrace, well, although not as soft as Nicole's.

"Hey! Good, I didn't ruin my apron."

When the dust settled, the two looked over and saw a little girl with matcha hair checking her clothes.

What was extremely noticeable was that there was a chainsaw standing next to the other party that was taller than herself. It was obvious that the other party had just used this thing to saw the train in half.

"what!"

At this moment, the other party seemed to notice Nekomata and Zhe here, stopped checking their clothes, and then bowed politely.

"Nice to meet you, Investigator. I'm here."

The fluffy twin ponytails fell in front of her as Kelin bent down, and her perspective happened to fall on Zhe.

"Huh? So the person who just spoke to me was this Bomb? Ah! Sorry, I didn't question your identity as a Bomb..."

While speaking, Kelin bowed again to apologize, and at the same time looked at Zhe who was walking in front of her. For some reason, she had the urge to hug him in her arms.

Ah! No, no, how could Kelin have such a rude thought? This is so rude! But...

While Karin was stunned, Nekomata beside her also asked his own questions.
