The Modern Age of the Mysterious

v1 Chapter 524: final puzzle

The wind was dry and cold across the lake, blowing on Sean's hat, mask, and overcoat.

For a long time, on the shore of Lake Mistani, outside the cabin, only the sound of the wind could be heard.

The four-member team that once went to Ocean City, confronted the Cruvitan Recovery Center in the Vinland Trench, and successfully rescued Aaliyah, now only has three people left.

Even though my heart is full of questioning and unwillingness, the big lake in front of me seems to be unable to give an answer, just blindly silent.

Like imitating death, the place is desolate and desolate.

"Reader..." Olivia Fengling, who had been feeling the slight pain in her heart, walked behind Sean.

The pianist Moonlight·1902 also came to Xiao En: "Xiao, I have the same feeling as you, but should I..."

Sean turned his head slowly, something in his heart surged like the tide on his mask.

"Guys..." You can imagine his questioning eyes just by hearing the voice, "It's not that I don't want to accept the truth...

"But I think there's something unnatural about it."

Always willing to listen to what Sean said about moonlight, he immediately asked, "What's so unnatural?"

"Northland Express." Sean lowered his voice, "It happened on the Northland Express."

"Soloist, think about it..." Sean's speech speed slowly sped up a bit, "We came to look for Ivan via Rongyer, why did we happen to encounter a strange incident on the train?"

"Isn't it a coincidence? I thought we were the kind of physique that would attract mysterious happenings..." Moonlight wasn't joking.

Sean shook his head: "If it is an ordinary evil event, I can accept this statement. But...

He thought of the death train, the "black sun" on that door.

It wasn't some kind of random strange event, the train named "Death" was following the railway, catching up with the Northland Express...

And the arrival of the "death" train is not for predation.

Moonlight also smelled something: "That train, is it coming for us?"

On the whole train, including Pan Sha, there were only these four explorers.

And the four of them came to Rongyer to find someone.

"So," Olivia's cold voice sounded, "that train is to prevent us from reaching Junyere."

Sean nodded.

If the fact is that Evan Burns died studying ancient books, then there is no need for anyone to prevent them from going north—

There was only one reason for this: the eagerness to kill them was the fear of what secrets they would discover in the search.

"This is..." Xiao En squinted his eyes and looked at the wooden house filled with the smell of death. "The other party was too safe and exposed his feet."

The other party wanted to rule out the risk, and even sent a spirit...

With such a large sum of money, Sean felt that it would be unwise to close the team now.

"Guys." Sean's heart, which was originally scattered by the lake, gathered again, all pointing to the wooden house, "We still have to go in and see if there is anything we missed."

When the three of them walked towards the hut, the wind on the lake stopped temporarily, as if they were holding their breath.

·

Stepping into this room filled with the smell of death again, Yueguang's heart is still tight.

He thought of Ivan's broken, scorched face, and the instinctive fear of death hit his nerves.

Sean, who re-entered the room, had already lit the oath torch. A golden fire floated in front of him like an elf, coating everything with a layer of light, making it look unreserved.

Step by step, they returned to Ivan's room.

In front of him, the thunder mark was like an eternally frozen shadow, running through the walls, windows, desks...

The Thunderbird scroll on the desk, as well as the body of Ivan Burns, had already been taken away by officials.

what else…

What other details have been left out?

The three of them settled down and began to search for any clues in this room.

"Ivan couldn't have died so easily..." While searching in this dark room, Sean thought more and more firmly, "There must be something wrong with his death!"

At this time, the moonlight walked to a corner on the right hand side of the door. He saw a picture frame hanging on the wall there, and inside the picture frame seemed to be a small paper product...

When he got closer, he saw the words written on the paper product.

"Xiao!" Moonlight turned around and called his captain, and Xiao En and Olivia immediately moved closer.

"Look," the pianist pointed to the thing in the photo frame, "that's the ticket for the Bronze Giant!"

Bronze Giant, business suite.

"This is..." Sean recalled regretfully.

This is their ticket to Ocean City, Avalon Island.

Ivan seemed to cherish this adventure very much. He put the boat ticket in a photo frame as a souvenir and hung it on the wall.

Seeing all this, the three of them suddenly fell into silence again.

Sighing slightly, Sean turned his gaze to the side of the wall.

The left side of the wall looks a bit empty, with a row of hooks for hanging clothes on the wall, and a shelf that seems to be a special decoration.

Xiao En suddenly narrowed his eyes: empty...

Why is it empty?

He suddenly remembered something, and walked to the clothes hook and shelf.

"This is..." Sean took two steps back, trying to treat the wall as a whole.

"This is?"

His eyes grew wider and wider.

This is!

"Soloist! Gray Swan!" Sean's voice made Moonlight and Olivia startled and turned their heads.

Sea of ​​Shimmer lowered his voice, waved his hand, and signaled them to stand at the angle he was standing at, and looked towards the wall...

At this time, Moonlight and Olivia also found out...

Empty shelves, empty clothes hooks, and frames with boat tickets.

The three things are arranged equidistantly~lightnovelpub.net~Using ectoplasm measurement, it can be found that the distances between the central axes of the three things are exactly the same, which is too accurate.

Unlike the random arrangement of other things in the room, the precise spacing of these three things seems so unnatural.

Sean switched to vibrating cards to speak: "We are not dealing with ordinary decorations.

"This is a magical institution, a puzzle left by Ivan, if we can solve it...

If they can crack it, there is no doubt that they will know the key information left by Ivan Burns!

The "death" train, the mark of the black sun, the disappearing Queen class...

And the strange rituals of the citizens of Junyere...

Sean's breathing suddenly became deeper, and his eyes became as deep as Lake Mistani—

He wants to solve the last riddle left to him by Evan Burns.
