The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 183: Suspect

"The Modern Age of the Mysterious (!

It wasn't long before people stopped their knives and forks—most were full.

Detective Solomon seems to be a gourmet, with a great appetite, and after eating two steaks and three lobsters, he is still dealing with a fourth salt-baked conch.

Anna couldn't sit still, and ran to the glass curtain wall again, watching the unpredictable underwater scenery.

Hunger is resolved and the relaxed people start chatting.

"When I heard Miss Randy introduce the Virgen," Solomon cut a piece of conch meat into his mouth, "I just had a bold association."

"What association?" Sean asked.

Solomon squinted his eyes, his expression and voice became a little low and gloomy: "I'm thinking, maybe Miss Vivian's emerald necklace is one of the treasures on the Holy Maiden.

"The persecuted religious people want to cross the ocean with a boatload of treasures to the New World..." Solomon finally put down his knife and fork and whispered in the dim light of the dining room, "But he didn't know that in his Among the treasures that have been accumulated for many years, there is an emerald necklace full of curses hidden in it...

"The curse was on that 17th-century ship laden with treasure, which eventually caused it to suffer a terrible storm and sink to the bottom of the sea forever..."

When Solomon squinted and said this, his expression was extraordinarily terrifying and weird.

Aunt Sarah on the side quickly said loudly: "Oh, Mr. Solomon, don't talk about this! It's all over, and you mention it again, it's scary!

"We have to sleep here at night, I don't want to lose sleep!"

Ms. Carmen in the distance also frowned, with an uneasy look on her face.

The slightly chubby Continental Detective's gloomy face turned into a slightly smug smile: "Hahaha... Just kidding, kidding..."

Sean on the side looked at Solomon with a calm expression.

He felt that after the meal, Continental Detective's state became a little strange.

Feeling too excited, like being drunk.

Before that, Mr. Solomon, who is well behaved, would not speak and act like this...

What's even more strange is that the horror story he imagined was somehow related to the phantom of the sunken ship he saw.

Is it...?

Sean suddenly thought of a possibility and joked: "Mr. Solomon, your imagination is so rich.

"Why do you have such an association? Did you see something on the ship?"

Solomon looked at Sean with a flash of surprise in his eyes.

After a while, he shook his fat palm: "No, no, how is it possible.

"Is there anything else on that boat besides fish and shrimp?"

Detective Solomon blinked, a mysterious smile on his face.

The tour guide Randy coughed lightly—she was seated in the second half of the dinner, and she had already eaten, just chatting with the passengers: "Everyone just arrived in Ocean City, not only physically tired, but also mentally tired. .

"So I suggest that you don't have too many associations, or talk about some horror content about the seabed...

"If it affects sleep, it is not good for your mental state!

"After all, we're going to visit the Ocean City Fair tomorrow."

Aunt Sarah nodded again and again and asked as if changing the subject: "Randy, can you introduce yourself too - are you married?"

Randy's freckled face flushed slightly: "Not yet. Now I just want to work hard..."

"Then your parents are also in Ocean City?" Aunt Sarah asked with a smile.

Randy shook his head: "No, my parents passed away when I was very young...

"My grandfather pulled me up.

"My grandfather passed away after I started working.

"I was alone, without a home, and didn't know where to go.

"I like the sea. To relax, I come to Ocean City to travel.

"Then I fell in love with it, settled down here, and regarded it as my home..."

As he said this, Randy looked calm.

Not because of the sadness of the past, but a longing for a new life...

When everyone felt a little regretful, Randy's eyes suddenly lit up: "Oh, yes! I have the honor to meet Mr. Verne and Mr. Tesler!

"They often come to the elevator center to inspect the work," Randy said with excitement. "Once I was welcoming new immigrants, and after Mr. Verne saw my welcome speech, he shook my hand. , said I did a good job...

"Speaking of Ocean City, talents like me are needed!"

Randy clapped his hands and folded his hands together, looking radiant: "I'm so happy to be recognized by Mr. Verne!

"After that day, I vowed to work hard and become a member of Ocean City!"

Aunt Sarah is a sentimental old man. She smiled and wiped away her tears. She encouraged: "My child, your smile is very contagious, and you have a warm and pure soul - you will definitely have a happy life."

Randy held Aunt Sarah's rough hand tightly, her eyes shining: "Thank you! I'm very happy now!"

The cold light moon on the outer orbit of Ocean City slowly fell to a place where the city skyline could not be seen.

Late at night.

The designers of Ocean City set a weaker city-wide illumination for night time, so that residents living in this dark city can maintain the same routine as on land.

Moonlight and Evan quietly walked into Sean's room, making sure no one would find out.

On the Bronze Giant, Sean's team has developed the habit of meeting and discussing every night.

After a few people exchanged what they had seen during the day, Sean raised a question that he was more concerned about: "Arthur Merlin mentioned that in this group that entered the city with us, there may be secret agents appointed by the Holy Court Investigation Bureau. .

"This spy's mission should also be to investigate the hidden 'Anti-Salvation Religion' organization in Ocean City.

"His existence may affect the rescue of Aaliyah and the investigation of Jojo's disappearance...

"So, we'd better be able to identify in advance and avoid being passive.

"Who do you think is more likely to be the spy?"

Moonlight pondered for a while and said, "Guys, have you noticed that Solomon's state has become a little strange?

"Has he been suppressing and hiding his true nature?

"Could he be the spy from the court?"

Sean remembered meeting Solomon in the hallway before dinner, his concentration when he read his notebook: "It's possible...

"Commissioning a non-New Zealander to conduct a covert investigation makes it even less likely that he would be associated with the Holy Court.

"And, for some reason, I have certain doubts about his true identity..."

Evan stood in front of the glass wall, folded his chest with one hand, raised his other hand, rubbed his fingers, and said, "Do you... smell Victor's body?"

Yueguang lowered his voice and said in surprise: "You smelled it too?! What is the smell? It smells so bad!"

Evan turned around, his eyes were cold: "I'm pretty sure, because I smelled that smell--

"It's the smell of carrion.

"He seems to have used some method to cover it up..." Evan looked at the ground with pale blue eyes, "so we didn't notice it on the boat.

"However, as time passed, he seemed to be unable to hide."

Under the white bangs, light blue eyes lifted: "So I have a guess...

"I suspect Victor isn't alive at all!"

Moonlight looked at Ivan in surprise, while Sean just frowned and looked straight ahead, not surprised-because he also had such a conjecture.

"If Victor is a corpse..." Sean said softly, feeling the pressure and the bone-chilling cold as the esoteric swept across the sea, "I think Barbara Carmen may be a corpse-manipulating explorer.

"The traces of spiritual power we sensed on Victor are actually Carmen's~lightnovelpub.net~ So, Carmen may also be the spy of the imperial court.

"And her ability is related to manipulating corpses..."

"What about Sarah's family?" Ivan asked. "Their possibility should be the least."

Sean nodded: "There's nothing suspicious about Aunt Sarah's family, but it can't be completely ruled out.

"Anyway, the main suspects right now are Solomon and Barbara Carmen.

Sean narrowed his eyes slightly: "In any case, they must have an unspeakable secret..."
