Chapter 307 The Fourth Person on the Train, Identity Crisis
Chapter 307 The Fourth Person on the Train, Identity Crisis (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
It's 21:00 PM US time, in an abandoned train station in New York.
Night had fallen, and all around was quiet. The black pupa hung motionless upside down under the eaves of the platform, a black restraint strap dangling above its head.
He was too lazy to use restraints to secure the hem of his trench coat, so under the influence of gravity, the coat fell down completely, covering his head and upper body.
Despite its dilapidated state, the railway station's walls still stood tall, shutting out the city's neon lights. At this moment, only a sliver of moonlight shone on the empty platform.
Amidst the dripping sound of water, Black Chrysalis quietly turned the pages of a book inside her trench coat, as if waiting for someone.
Before long, a brightly lit train roared through the tunnel and came to a stop on the rusty tracks.
A wave of steam surged outward from the gaps in the train, hissing and roaring, before finally subsiding after a while.
Black Cocoon hung upside down in mid-air, stretched leisurely, used the restraints to pull up the hem of the overcoat covering its head, then looked up from the book and silently stared at the closed carriage door.
To his surprise, he could see figures above carriages 7 and 8 by looking through the dark curtains hanging from the train windows.
The carriage was brightly lit, clearly illuminating their shadows.
There were two people sitting in carriage 7, one a man and the other a woman, while there was a single person sitting alone in carriage 8. Judging from the outline of their shadow, it looked like the back of a young girl.
Black Chrysalis became alert, thinking, "Didn't Ke Qirui come alone?"
The situation is special now. If the Salvation Society or the Rainbow Wings find out that he is in New York, then the fact that Gu Qiye is an undercover agent will be magnified infinitely among them.
After all, the Empire State Building in New York is Rainbow Wing's headquarters. If people find out that Black Chrysalis is here, Gu Qiye will never be able to explain why Black Chrysalis followed him to New York as soon as he joined Rainbow Wing. Could it be that they are telepathically connected?
Therefore, he cannot reveal his whereabouts, which is also for his brother's safety.
Hei Yong had specifically instructed Ke Qirui not to bring any extra people, but despite this, she still brought two guests.
Thinking of this, the black pupa silently wrapped its entire body with restraints, forming a pupa shape. Then, the black pupa slowly faded and disappeared into the air.
With a "bang," the carriage door, carrying steam, opened outwards.
Stepping off the train onto the steel plate at the entrance, Ke Qirui put one hand in her trench coat pocket and held a cigarette in the other, looking up at the empty air in front of her.
"Stop hiding, the train demon told me it saw you." She smiled and teased, "What's the difference between you hiding now and burying your head in the sand?"
"I must say... you are as punctual as ever, Miss Ke."
As the black pupa spoke, it slowly opened the pupa to reveal its body, then glanced at the time on its phone.
"Compared to that, it's only been a few days since I took you to New York last time," Ke Qirui said calmly. "You don't really think of me as a personal driver you can call anytime, do you? I may have been idle lately, but I'm not that easy to talk to."
"Hey, I guess I have no choice but to rely on you now?" Black Chrysalis shrugged. "I'm a minor, so it's only natural for an older sister to help a homeless minor."
"Alright, alright, you're a minor. Be careful, or I'll report you to the police and have you taken back to Lijing." Ke Qirui said, then suddenly remembered something and added, "Oh right, there's someone you know in the car."
"Uh... Mr. Mulong?" Heiyong stared at the shadow reflected in the car window. "Isn't it me who asked you to give him a ride? After all, he's also involved in this operation to capture Salvation Society members. We can't just leave him standing around in Lijing, can we?"
Besides Ke Qirui, the other person in carriage number 7 was undoubtedly Lin Yilong.
He knew in his heart that Lin Yilong's identity was special. Lin Yilong was not only a wanted criminal, but also a wanted criminal who "killed Blue Arc".
It's worth noting that just the day before the incident, the official Weibo account of the Lijing Outcast Association was still hyping up the "Mulong X Lanhu" pairing, frantically uploading photos of the two together, claiming that they were a perfect match of a "cold-faced medieval knight" and a "friendly neighborhood hero".
However, just a few days later, Mu Long was accused of spreading rumors and assassinating Blue Arc, and in the eyes of the public, he became a rat that everyone wanted to kill.
So, before the controversy died down, Lin Yilong temporarily topped the list of "Most Hated People in China." His lead in votes demonstrates the extent of his influence.
Even though a week has passed and Blue Arc's public memorial service has ended for some time, the online public opinion still shows no signs of abating.
"Kind-hearted" netizens used their internet skills to investigate Lin Yilong's background, only to be shocked to discover that his family had indeed all died long ago!
Therefore, even if one wanted to bombard his family with text messages or make phone calls, there would be no one to target.
With the authorities strictly controlling all transportation, it's really not easy for Lin Yilong to leave Lijing, unlike the cases of Su Wei and Gu Zhuo where he could just buy a plane ticket and leave.
So, while asking Ke Qirui to pick him up in New York, Hei Yong also asked her to pick up Lin Yilong in China. But strangely, he saw more than one person on the train, which was quite puzzling.
“No, the acquaintance I’m talking about isn’t Lin Yilong,” Ke Qirui said quietly, shaking her head.
"Wait a minute, could it be her?" Black Chrysalis suddenly became alert and narrowed her eyes.
"you guess?"
Ke Qirui curled the corners of her lips and said quietly, "I'll tell you after we get in the car."
Black Chrysalis scratched his chin and said suspiciously, "I feel like there's something fishy about this atmosphere... It feels like I've been kidnapped, and yet I have no choice but to get on this bus."
After saying that, he closed the book, loosened his restraints, and fell from the eaves, tumbling once before landing steadily.
He slowly moved closer to the train demon, looking at the shadow on the window of carriage number 8.
The closer you are, the clearer you can see.
A girl with a high ponytail sat motionless with her back to the car window. Her silhouette was reflected on the curtain by the interior lights, so only her general outline could be seen through the window.
"You're not going to sell me out, are you?" Hei Chang turned to look at Ke Qirui. "What happened to the trust between people?"
"Wenyu, whatever it is, let's get on the train first." Ke Qirui said with a smile, leaned over and put her arm around his shoulder, leading him onto carriage number 7.
After boarding the carriage, the ceiling light bulbs cast a warm orange glow, illuminating the black pupa's mask and the sly smile on Ke Qirui's face.
The black pupa yawned and looked up.
Lin Yilong was sitting in the car seat with his arms crossed, resting with his eyes closed. His expression was as cold and stern as ever, and his brows exuded a commanding presence.
He was wearing a black coat and trousers. Beside him was a suitcase, which was mostly filled with the battle suit of the Outcast "Mulong".
Black Chrysalis slumped her shoulders, listlessly waved her restraints, and greeted him.
"Long time no see, Mr. Mutaki. I'm relieved to see that you're still as reserved as ever."
Lin Yilong ignored him and simply said, "Mr. Gui Zhong and Mr. Su Wei have already boarded the plane and will arrive in Japan soon."
“Okay.” Black Chrysalis nodded. “Actually, I know without you saying it. I would prefer you to give me a warm greeting to show how much you miss me.”
"Shut up."
"Yes, sir." With that, Hei Yong turned to look at Ke Qi Rui, "If I may ask, who exactly is that orphan sitting in the next carriage, number 8? Oh no, who is that lonely person?"
Ke Qirui closed the door of carriage number 7, then lowered his head and brought his pipe closer, taking a puff of smoke.
A wisp of smoke curled around her fingertips as she looked up at the black cocoon. "If you want to know, why don't you just go and see for yourself?"
"I do not want to know."
"Of course she's your good little sister," Ke Qirui whispered in his ear.
At that moment, the train demon suddenly became restless, and the roar of the engine echoed in the air.
The black pupa remained silent.
He instinctively reached behind him, and a restraint strap flew out from the sleeve of his trench coat, which he used to fasten the car door and pull it open.
But it was too late. The dark red train crashed into the pitch-black tunnel, and then, deep within the tunnel, at the very end of the darkness, a spatial rift suddenly appeared.
The train demon roared and crashed into it.
"Uh, is it too late for me to jump out of the car now?" Black Chrysalis asked belatedly, turning her head to look at the world outside the window, which looked like "garbled code".
“You can try it; at least I’ve never seen anyone survive a time-space turbulence,” Ke Qirui said.
"My life is over..."
Black Chrysalis sighed, lowered her head, and silently closed the car door with the restraints to prevent the three people in the carriage from being swept into the spacetime turbulence.
"Is the girl in the next carriage really my sister?" he asked Ke Qirui.
“Otherwise?” Ke Qirui explained, “She didn’t want to sit with Mu Long, so she found a separate carriage to sit in. I didn’t want to neglect my guest, so I’m staying here with Mr. Lin Yilong.”
Black Chrysalis raised her hand to her forehead and let out a long sigh.
“Could I throw her out of the car?” he thought.
"You want to betray your own family for the greater good?" Ke Qirui was surprised, then patted his shoulder, "Don't run away, it's not a big deal."
“Alright, now I have a crucial question to ask you.” With that, Hei Chang narrowed her eyes and turned to stare at Ke Qirui.
He asked, enunciating each word clearly, "Did you tell her who I am?"
“She knows about it, but she doesn’t believe it,” Ke Qirui said casually.
"Traitor, you will pay the price for this."
Black Chrysalis hung her head, muttering resentfully, "I thought you were a trustworthy person, Miss Ke. It seems that being punctual is not necessarily being trustworthy. I'm going to write this down in my little notebook."
"It wasn't me who revealed it; she secretly listened to my recording," Ke Qirui protested. "Didn't I say before that I always bring a recording device with me when we meet, just in case I miss any information?"
She paused for a moment, then gently nudged Black Chrysalis's shoulder.
"Go ahead, they've been waiting for you in the next carriage for a long time."
"I'll remember you, you damned train lesbian heroine." After saying that, Black Chrysalis silently raised her head, facing the door of carriage number eight with a solemn expression.
It was as if it were a doorway to hell.
After a while, he walked step by step toward carriage number eight, the steel floorboards creaking under his feet, the lights in the aisle flickering on and off.
Behind that door, Su Zimai was waiting for him.
