Chapter Ninety-Four: A Little Episode on the Train

"What's the matter with this Vishan?" Leo wondered.

"The Weishan people are a tribe in the Moisan continent, and there are countless tribes like this on the Moisan continent. Sylvia sighed slightly and said, "At the beginning, the Imperial Railway Company was hired to build a continent-ring train on the Moisan continent that was the same as the Vilun continent, and the railway route had to pass through the holy land of the Weishan tribe, but of course the Weishan people did not agree. ”

Leo guessed, "So you took over the land by force?"

"Don't think of us as barbaric as you," Sylvia glared at Leo coldly, but then said with some lack of confidence: "But the later methods were not very glorious, in short, it ended up in trouble to the Continental Assembly, when the Continental Assembly voted that the holy land of the Weishan people is the state-owned land of the Mogaganu Kingdom, and the royal government has the right to decide the use of the land, so it forcibly passed the decision to build a railway on the holy land of the Weishan people." ”

"What happened later?" Leo speculated according to common sense, "the Vishan people stopped, and the railway company forcibly laid the tracks, and the two sides clashed, and there were many casualties. ”

"Although there was a conflict, there were not many casualties, but the shaman priest of the Vishan people died. Sylvia's face was a little ugly, and she said, "After the death of the shaman, the Vishans disappeared overnight, and there was no more conflict with the railway company. ”

"This is not good news. "Leo is well aware that anything unusual is a sign of disaster.

People didn't think that way. Sylvia had a disdainful sneer on her face, obviously extremely dissatisfied with the railroad company in charge of this matter at the time, and said: "But soon they panicked, the high-ranking officials of the Imperial Railroad Company were killed one after another, and the corpses were divided, and each corpse had a declaration of war from the Weishan people, and they did not stop retaliating until the high-ranking officials of the railroad company and the officials of the Mogaganu Kingdom who were involved in that incident were all killed. ”

"It seems that the Weishan people are a very vindictive race. Leo frowned and said, "Then why did they appear again this time? Is the speaker who died this time the speaker who pushed the council to assign the holy land of the Vishan people to the kingdom of Mogaganu?"

Sylvia shook her head and said, "Of course not, the speaker died of illness a few years ago. ”

Leo analyzed: "It seems that someone is using the Weishan people as an excuse to remove some obstacles. ”

"Do you still need to say that?" Sylvia said angrily, "With a little bit of wisdom you can tell who did it, but there is no evidence to prove it." ”

Leo ignored the sarcasm in Sylvia's tone, and asked curiously, "What does this have to do with you, and why did the Sky Tower send extra men to protect you?"

Sylvia's face immediately became very ugly, and she hesitated for a moment before saying: "The reason why the railway company chose the holy land of the Weishan people as the railway route was entirely because after reading what I wrote, I knew that there was a secret valley that could directly pass through the Moisan Mountains. ”

"Oh, I see. Leo looked at Sylvia with a look that you deserved, and Sylvia's eyelids jumped, and the anger that had just been suppressed rose again.

"If it's okay, you can leave!" Sylvia felt that it would be difficult for her to regain her composure if Leo continued to stay here like this, so she ordered her to be evicted. ,

Leo had no intention of staying any longer, and put the document bag in his backpack and walked out of the room.

After Leo left the room, Sylvia's fluctuating mood gradually recovered, her eyes looked at the door with some complicated eyes, then pursed her lips, turned her head to Emily, who was unconscious, and said, "You think this is a hateful bastard, don't you speak, even if you acquiesce! Your clothes are so terrible, you have to change your clothes, your hair is not good-looking, and you have to put on some makeup......"

Leo didn't know how Sylvia fiddled with the unconscious Emily like a doll in the room of the Sky Tower, but even if he knew, he wouldn't care, although it was a little cold, but in his eyes, only a living Emily would be fine.

After leaving the Sky Tower, Leo went directly to the intercity steam train station located at the junction of the three embassy districts of Megaliga, Panir, and Mogaganu.

The previous Miria Intercity train had left the station five minutes earlier, and the next one would arrive fifteen minutes later, and Leo sat on the waiting chair on the platform, reading the newspapers he had just bought.

The front page of all the newspapers was the news of the murder of the Speaker of the Continental Congress, and the security services of the Continental Congress had intervened in the investigation, the Political Department of the French Empire was following up, and all the Vishanites were wanted in the city.

Although the newspaper reported a lot about the Speaker's death, Leo was surprised to find that the ordinary people around him were very indifferent to the incident.

After questioning the ordinary passengers who were also waiting for the train next to him, Leo learned that it was not the first time that the speaker of the Continental Congress had been assassinated.

As a matter of fact, after the establishment of the Continental Congress, no clues were found, and it could only be concluded that 17 speakers had died accidentally, and that as many as 35 speakers had been assassinated or murdered. Only seven speakers eventually died, and six of these seven speakers resigned halfway through, so only one person died in the position of speaker, that is, the previous speaker.

It's no wonder that the people of Miria City look so indifferent to the Speaker's murder and dismemberment, mainly because they have experienced too much, for them, the Speaker's assassination is not news, the Speaker's life is news, like the previous Speaker's death from illness in office, it was simply regarded as a miracle by the people of Miria City, and the news newspapers reported on it for a whole week.

At this time, a whistle was heard in the distance of the railway, followed by a rush of steam like a striking sign to alert everyone on the platform, and everyone got up from the waiting chairs and walked to the barrier.

At this moment, suddenly there was a cacophony of voices outside the station, among which there were the shouts of ordinary people, the whistle of the police, and the sound of more items falling on the ground.

It didn't take long to see the crowd at the entrance of the platform not far away, and then a thin figure squeezed out of the crowd and ran quickly towards the platform, and several policemen behind him whistled and waved batons, quickly chasing.

The people on the platform didn't know what was going on, but they didn't want to get into trouble, and they avoided the thin figure as it ran over.

And the thin figure was obviously unwilling to let go of such a good tool to block the way, and when he was running in the crowd, he pulled a handful of women who were caught off guard from time to time, so that their bodies involuntarily blocked the route he ran over, blocking the police chasing behind him.

Soon the thin figure came to Leo not far away, and a pair of calm triangular eyes under the deliberately lowered cap glanced at Leo's eye-catching backpack, and a smile appeared on his dirty face.

Immediately afterward, I saw him deliberately crash into the backpack behind Leo as he passed by. Ling exposed a small opening in the backpack, and then quickly stuffed a thing in his hand into the backpack, the whole process was completed in an instant, plus the body covered, no one noticed, except for the two parties.

The thin figure was obviously very confident in his own technique, and did not stop to check it, and then sped forward, one flipping over the fence and running towards the fast-moving train.

At a distance from the head of the train, the thin figure jumped off the platform and landed on the tracks under the exclamations of everyone on the platform, and then turned over, brushed the edge of the train, fell to the other side of the train, and disappeared into the steam emitted by the train, leaving only the angry roar of the policemen on the platform.

For passengers boarding the train on the platform, this incident can be regarded as a small talk during the journey, and many people are speculating whether the thin figure is a man or a woman, and why it is being chased by the police.

As the train stopped on the platform and the passengers boarded the train one after another, Leo also followed the flow of people and got on the train and found a window seat to sit down.

Later, Leo took out a random copy of the Gamoree poetry manuscripts handed to him by Rembrandt from his backpack, and did not touch the palm-sized, cloth-wrapped object in the corner of his backpack.

Soon the train restarted with a whistle and moved forward slowly, the carriage was not yet full, and Leo was sitting in a somewhat remote position, and there was no one around, so that he could read the Gamoree poems in his hand with peace of mind.

Although the poems written in GamorΓ© were obscure, Leo read them with great relish, and he found that the same poem, after the pronunciation of the basic roots, could be transformed into hundreds of poems with very different meanings, so that he could not even fully read the first poem in the manuscript.

It's just that obviously someone doesn't want Leo to just read the book leisurely and arrive at the hunting ground on the outskirts of the city smoothly.

The train passed a stop, officially left the city of Miria, and entered the suburbs of the city, two large men wearing ordinary cotton jackets and round felt hats walked to the seat where Leo was and sat down beside Leo.

Leo sighed slightly, put down the poetry manuscript in his hand, turned his head to look at the faces of the two of them that were different from those of the people of the Velen Continent, and said nothing, took out the item in the backpack that was forced in, and put it on the table, completely as if you took it away and didn't want to cause trouble.

However, the two big men were clearly not prepared to let Leo go like this, and one of them said, "We hope you can help us take this thing to a place and give it to a person." ”

"I don't want to get in trouble. Leo looked at the two of them calmly and said.

"But you're already in trouble," the big man sitting next to Leo looked fierce, and threatened, "You'd better agree to help us do this, or ......"

Leo sighed again when he heard this, and in the eyes of the two big men, Leo's helpless look now, he felt that the other party should have been forced to accept their request.

However, before they could say where they were going to take the things and who they were going to give them to, they felt a pain in their necks, their vision blurred rapidly, and their breathing suddenly stopped.

After breaking their necks, Leo gently held them on the table, and then put their hats over their faces, as if they were asleep.

When he had done all this, he picked up the troublesome object again, but instead of untying the cloth bag on the outside to see what it was, he put it back in his backpack and continued to pick up the manuscript of the Gamori poem and read it.

After about ten minutes, the train passed two more stops and finally arrived at the hunting ground station, the destination of Leo's trip.

Leo put the manuscript back in his backpack, stood up, rolled over the dead man beside him, and walked towards the exit of the carriage, quickly disappearing into the crowd.

Many people on the train get off at this stop, because some civil servants and middle-class families in Miria City take their families on vacation on the outskirts of the city, and the best of all the surrounding resorts is naturally the hunting grounds near the Dibia Mountains.

Although spring is not a good season for hunting, it is a great time for outings, and it is a pleasant thing for the whole family to spend a rest day in a mountain villa, so when Leo rents a mountain hut from the hunting lodge alone, the person in charge of the reception has a surprised expression on his face.

Although the reception staff of the hunting ground inn was puzzled by Leo running to the suburbs alone during this period, his face did not show it, but he recommended professionally: "If you are alone, I would recommend our hot spring inn to you......"

"I don't have to! I want to live in a relatively remote mountain hut, I want to be alone. Leo said his conditions, and the hotel receptionist who heard this condition looked at Leo with a strange look.

Leo also seemed to sense the ambiguity of his words, so he added: "Don't worry, I'm not here to commit suicide, if I want to kill myself, I won't rent a mountain hut, but run straight to the mountain, it's better." ”

The hotel receptionist touched the back of his head in embarrassment and said, "Hehe! I'm sorry, but the main thing is that some of those things happen here every year, which makes us very nervous." ”

Later, the hostess of the hotel introduced Leo to several mountain huts suitable for one person, but Leo vetoed them.

After vetoing another mountain hut, Leo suddenly proposed, "Do you have a map here?" I'll pick an area on the map and tell me if there are any vacant mountain huts there. ”

When the hotel receptionist heard this, they also thought this method was good, so they asked people to find a map and spread it on the table.

Soon Leo found on the map the special piece of land that was constantly rented by the escapees from 9 Golden Oak Street, so he drew an area around the land and asked if there was a suitable mountain hut to rent there.

The hotel receptionist checked the information and found that there was no holiday lodge built there, but there was a public hunting house for hunters to rest, because it was spring, there were no hunters hunting, so the hunting house was vacant.

So the inn rented the hunting house to Leo, and asked the inn's hunter guide to lead Leo there.
