Chapter 701: The Strange Missing Man (2)

If the time on the train is just for players to collect a little hint about the neighborhood and get acquainted with each other, then the real story will not begin until you enter the town.

The only hint so far is, 'They've all been invited by someone in town', and there's a request to ask them to solve the problem.

The appearance of the old butler is expected, if it doesn't appear, it will be a pain, after all, the four players don't even know who the client is.

"Please come with me, the master is waiting for you at home."

Since the ticket was also provided by the other party, he knew very well which train An Yi was referring to and which carriage they were sitting in.

Combined with the fact that the buttons on the other party's clothes are exactly the same as those in the portfolio, the credibility is quite high.

"If you have work, you can't make the client wait for a long time."

The old butler owes a debt:

"My pleasure."

Then he led the group towards the outside of the station.

However, An Yi pointed out that it was unlikely that this thing would trust strangers unconditionally, and he said it nicely on the surface, but in fact, he had secretly put his hand in his pocket and touched the pistol, and at the same time reminded everyone to be vigilant with his eyes.

In fact, he didn't need to remind him, none of them were rookies, not to mention Qingfeng Bazooka, who had once lined up this kind of copy with An Yizhi, even Apple Tea and Red had fought similarly.

- Although they haven't fought a copy of something unnameable.

Follow the old butler through the bustling crowd as they come to the stone pavement outside the train station.

"Please wait a minute, I'll call a car."

The so-called car of this era is certainly not a car, and although cars with internal combustion engines have been commercialized and become popular, the novelty of the car does not exist for a small town in the middle of nowhere.

The old butler called for a black carriage, and it could be seen that the carriage was also painted with a golden F pattern, and there were some decorations on the perimeter.

If it is replaced by S, An Yizhi is afraid that he will think that this family has something to do with Superman......

However, this also shows that the client who entrusts the player must be a rich and powerful guy, and the carriage in this era is quite expensive, and the average middle class can't afford to sit on this kind of thing, even if the ordinary upper-class aristocracy raises a carriage as a face project, it will be difficult.

The interior of the carriage is also quite luxuriously decorated, not only with red velvet to wrap everything tightly, and equipped with two sofas arranged opposite, but also with a small bar in the carriage, which is equivalent to the high-end stretch car of later generations, and it is also the top version, which really has to lament the corrupt life of capitalism.

There was also a small episode when everyone boarded the carriage, due to the large size of the carriage, the ground clearance was naturally not small, which was not a big problem for people of normal height, but apple tea ......

Speaking of which, he was almost overwhelmed by the crowd when he was at the train station before, in the multiverse world, the height of a halfling represents flexibility and agility, and being short has an advantage, but here it is all kinds of inconvenience.

He tried hard to climb up the carriage, but his height was not enough, and he was finally carried up by Rhett like a bag, which said that with Rhett's height of nearly two meters, apple tea is just equivalent to a bag, or a handbag......

The old butler did not sit with them, but was next to the coachman of the carriage outside the carriage, and with a shout, the carriage started slowly.

Red opened the wine cabinet and looked at it, picked out a bottle of French brandy from it, and quickly took out a few glasses and poured them again. Appletea looked at the carriage, her eyes gurgling, as if she was thinking of something not very kind.

And An Yizhi on the opposite side of the breeze Bazooka with his hand on his cheek, intending to show his most confident side face to the opposite An Yizhi, but because he has never done anything to show off his style, and the stone road is not smooth, the bumps and unfamiliarity make this action particularly clumsy, but it makes An Yizhi very puzzled.

"Do you have a cramp in your face?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

After a few failures of common sense, Qingfeng Bazooka also gave up his original plan, anyway, the orders of his superiors were the best to tempt, and he could not contact and monitor him as much as possible.

So she sat back in a straight position, and it felt like a serious soldier sitting across from her, and it didn't reflect the effect of her gorgeous dress at all......

And our protagonist obviously didn't realize the change in Qingfeng Bazooka's thinking, he didn't care about those strange actions at all, anyway, he was not familiar with Qingfeng Bazooka, he could only be regarded as a nodding friend, and the friendship may not be as familiar as the previous 'two pieces of sugar'.

Ann lifted the curtain of the carriage and surveyed the scenery outside.

This town looks very ordinary, and the scenery is good, maybe it will become a tourist attraction in more than 100 years.

From the outside, you can't tell what's wrong with the town, whether it's the crowd or the buildings around it.

But Ann knows that since the system left that sentence at the end, it clearly tells the player that this is a very dangerous temporary copy, and everything now is just the calm before the storm.

To be honest, this kind of copy is not An Yizhi's favorite kind, he prefers the type of simple detective puzzle solving, maybe Tu Hongyu has a love for this kind of thing.

Whether he liked it or not, the carriage continued to move forward with the sound of horses' hooves, and as time passed, the surrounding scenery began to change a little.

First of all, there are fewer crowds, and the farther away from the train station, the fewer people walk on the streets.

This level of change is still within the normal range, after all, the train station is a densely populated area, and An Yizhi feels that they should be heading towards the interior of the town, so the flow of people will be significantly reduced.

Speaking of which, he really wanted a map, especially in an unfamiliar environment, and having a more reliable map was quite useful.

At this time, the effect of apple tea was obvious, and he patted his chest to assure that he had memorized all the routes taken by the carriage, and that it would not be a problem to go back to the train station.

- An Yizhi really can't envy this kind of talent......

"Brother An, why do I think you are particularly careful this time?"

Apple Tea is a little strange about this, and it's not once or twice that he acts with An Yizhi, usually An Yizhi is not as careful as this time, and he has to be ready to escape everywhere like this time, just like a victim paranoia.

"You don't know...... This kind of copy cannot be overly careful. ”

An Yizhi said solemnly, and the breeze Bazooka opposite him also nodded cooperatively.

Then he briefly told Apple Tea and Red, who didn't know the truth, that they had come across this kind of copy before, which made them realize the seriousness of the problem.

Most of the ordinary temporary dungeons are puzzle-solving, and occasionally there will be survival classes similar to the previous 'Earth Pill', but they all have one thing in common, that is, there are no unscientific supernatural elements.

However, this copy is different, it is a copy of what seems to be science, but in fact science is ......

The existing common sense is not universal here, you need to use the physical fitness and means of 'ordinary people' to fight against unscientific forces like demons, and the danger is self-evident.

For this kind of dungeon, finding the truth is not the first purpose, the first purpose is to save your life!

–‐‐——–‐‐——

The carriage passed through the town, and when the buildings on either side had been reduced to a section of deliberately planted street trees, they were not far from the client's home.

What appeared in front of the four of them was a luxurious two-storey villa with a very nice garden in front of the villa, proving how rich the owner of the house was.

"Please come with me, the master is waiting for you in the study."

It was still the old butler who led the way, and everyone walked through the garden and into the villa. Follow the shiny wooden staircase to a room on the second floor.

"Master, the guest you were waiting for has arrived."

"Invite them in."

Receiving the answer, the old butler pushed open the door and made a gesture of please.

An pointed out that they had finally seen the client's appearance.

He was a middle-aged man in his forties, thin in a gray suit, with a hooked nose that didn't look like a good guy at first glance, and his eyes were bright and full of power.

But if you look closely, you can still see a hint of eagerness and worry in those eyes, but it requires a lot of skill, and unfortunately, none of the players present understand this.

He was standing behind a piece of work with a glass of wine left on the table.

He reached out and made a gesture of please, pointing to the couch:

"You may be seated."

Then he said to the butler:

"Prepare some tea for our guests."

"Good master."

When the butler had departed and closed the door, the man said:

"I'm Bilbom. Fross, thank you for coming all the way to this small and remote place to accept my commission."

When the group entered, he seemed to be stuffing documents into a black suitcase, which was so far away that An Yizhi at the front couldn't make out what it was.

"You're welcome, can you let us hear about the commission?"

"It is rumored that Mr. An Yizhi is straightforward, so I guess you are."

It is not clear how famous the system has assigned to An Yizhi's identity, but it sounds like he is the same as before, a well-known detective.

The background setting of this dungeon makes Annichi feel like he is using the setting of the outlaw Chiza Island, but in terms of timing, it should be considered a prequel.

Mr. Bilbohm locked the suitcase full of papers and placed it under the desk.

With that done, he pulled out another cigar:

"Can I ......?"

Everyone didn't mind, and Mr. Bilbohm lit his cigar and took a puff, and with the strong aroma of smoke, he slowly spoke:

"I hope you can find my missing son."

The task of finding someone? This kind of task should be easier than entrusting someone to find it from the outside, and ask the local police to find it, right?

As soon as Bilbohm's words fell, all players were prompted.
