Chapter 510 The Journey Has Just Begun

After that, everyone did not encounter any more troubles and arrived at the destination very smoothly.

Of course, this is not the end. First of all, the strange death of two guests on the train must be reported. After all, one of them is a famous reporter and the other is a big businessman, not an ordinary person. Although Duanmu Huai did not get too many clues this time, fortunately, the transfer records between Philip and the Silver Twilight Hut left by the reporter are still very easy to check. He informed Anthony of this matter by phone. After learning about the news of the Silver Twilight Hut, the latter immediately said that he would send someone to take over the investigation.

After all, this organization is also notorious. Although Philip is a big businessman, once he is involved with such an organization, there is only one way to die waiting for him—Oh, he is dead.

But Anthony did not forget to tease Duanmu Huai. He was bored in Arkham City. He didn't expect to encounter a big case as soon as he went out. Should he continue to dig down with this case? Philip is a well-known entrepreneur, and the Silver Twilight Hut is an organization that specializes in collecting upper-class people. Through Philip's line, he might be able to dig out more information about the Silver Twilight Hut.

Duanmu Huai was somewhat tempted by this, but in the end, after thinking for a while, he chose to refuse. The reason is also very simple. After all, the plan on his side has been set and the money has been spent. It can't be wasted, right? And from what Anthony said, he wanted to let him go undercover in the Silver Twilight Cabin... Are you kidding, going undercover with your body size? You got the wrong person.

So in the end, Duanmu Huai rejected Anthony's invitation and boarded the airship "Full Moon and Stars" to the Fog City.

It has to be said that as a toy for the rich, the Full Moon and Stars is really a very luxurious airship. The entire airship has only ten cabins, which are specially used to receive distinguished guests.

In addition, there are restaurants and recreation rooms, and even spa rooms... Well, think about being at an altitude of 10,000 meters, soaking in a heated swimming pool, and looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside, which is naturally a different flavor.

The appearance of Duanmu Huai and Lorena certainly attracted the attention of other guests, but fortunately everyone was civilized. Even if they were curious, they just watched secretly from a distance and had no intention of coming over. Duanmu Huai didn't care about other people's eyes. He just looked at the scenery outside the window and drank black tea leisurely. The speed of the airship was slower than that of the plane, but still faster than the ship. It would take at most five days to reach the Fog City.

I hope I won't cause any more trouble.

"Hello, sir."

Just as Duanmu Huai was enjoying the scenery, a voice came from his side. Duanmu Huai turned his head and saw a young man dressed as a gentleman standing beside him, looking at him with a smile.

"Excuse me, are you going to the Fog City too?"

"Isn't that nonsense? Could this airship throw me somewhere else on the way?"

"Hahaha..."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, the young man smiled bitterly, then he looked back behind him. Duanmu Huai followed his gaze and saw that on the game table not far behind, several young people who were not much different from the young man were sitting there, looking at this side with nervous and curious expressions.

Hmm... Could it be that he lost the truth or dare game, so he came to find me?

"So? What's the matter?"

"Nothing, just... ..."

The young man's expression was obviously a little stiff. It was obvious that standing close to Duanmu Huai was very stressful for him. This was also normal. Any normal person would be scared to death if they came into contact with a tiger face to face without a cage.

He also took out a handkerchief, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and tried hard to think about how to speak.

"Just... From your appearance, is this your first time in the Fog City?"

"Of course, from your appearance, it doesn't look like the first time."

Duanmu Huai said while looking at the men's clothes. Including this young man, they all looked like traditional aristocratic clothes. This kind of clothes is rare in the outside world. Only in conservative places like Fog City will people dress like this. Modern people usually wear suits when they go out.

"Of course, we are students of the Royal Master's College. This time we are going back to study."

"Oh... I see."

"Excuse me, who are you... ..."

"I'm a detective."

"Detective?"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's self-introduction, the young man's eyes lit up immediately.

"I never thought I would meet a real detective here. Are you here for the case of Jack the Chain?"

"Jack the Chain?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai frowned.

"Isn't it Jack the Ripper?"

"But according to the rumors we heard, it seems that everyone in the streets is called Jack the Chain. This is a very famous rumor in the foggy city. Even our parents told us to be careful about our safety several times when we returned to school..."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai became interested in them. Obviously, these students are locals and should know more about the rumor than himself.

"Then why don't you tell me what the rumor is like?"

"This... Actually, we don't know much."

Next, the young man told Duanmu Huai what he knew about the rumors about Jack the Chain that was currently raging in Fog City. The general situation was not far off, but according to the young man, the bodies were not found on the street, but in the river. In addition...

"Why is it called Jack the Chain? Obviously, Jack the Ripper is more traditional."

If Duanmu Huai found any doubts in it, it was about the title of the murderer. At the beginning, the file he got from Fog City said Jack the Ripper. Duanmu Huai was not surprised by this. After all, Jack the Ripper was also a famous rumor in Fog City. It was normal to use it in similar cases. After all, it was also well-known.

But Jack the Chain was different, especially the description of "chain". At least if this rumor was true, it meant that there was a high probability that there were witnesses who saw the murderer, otherwise how could they know that the other party had a chain?

Unfortunately, these students stayed away from home for the entire holiday, and they just returned to prepare for school. The rumors were all learned by calling local relatives and friends. Naturally, there was nothing to investigate about this second-hand rumor.

Duanmu Huai and the young man talked a lot, and the latter gradually relaxed from the initial tension of seeing Duanmu Huai.

"Thank you very much."

"You're welcome. When we get to the foggy city, maybe I still need your help."

"Of course, if I can help, I will do my best."

As he spoke, the young man took out a business card from his pocket and handed it over. Duanmu Huai took it and also handed his own business card over.

"I'll give you one. If you encounter any trouble, you can also contact me."

Soon, the two sides finished talking, and then Duanmu Huai returned to his room to rest, and the young man returned to his friend and began to talk happily.

The following journey was smooth sailing. For two whole days, there was no storm and no trouble. Logically, Duanmu Huai hoped to reach the destination quietly.

Unfortunately... things did not go as he wished.

On the morning of the third day, Duanmu Huai had just gotten up when he heard a scream from outside.

"Murder!!"

"……………………"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai paused for a moment, and then sighed silently.

Could it be that Arkham's Feng Shui is really not good?
