Chapter 1539: Magic Eye Collection Train (Part 4)



The train continued to move forward.

In the dining car, Fang Zheng was still gesticulating and telling everyone about the previous Holy Grail War - of course, in "this" world, it was not the Fourth Holy Grail War, but for Fang Zheng, it naturally didn't matter.

"However, just when Saber and Lancer were about to decide the winner, suddenly, accompanied by thunder and lightning, a figure on a chariot majestically flew through the air and landed in front of the two. The burly chariot owner said in a stern tone: My name is the Conqueror King Iskandar, I participated in this Holy Grail War and obtained the RIDER class!"

Fang Zheng said this, then reached out, picked up the cup next to him and took a sip of water, and at this moment, a voice came.

"How stupid."

Hearing this voice, everyone looked in the direction of the voice and found that Olga Marie had come over at some point and was standing not far away. From the look of her, it was obvious that she had also been listening to Fang Zheng's story.

"I heard that all servants in the Holy Grail War have to hide their identities. Aren't you afraid of being seen through by others by saying it so loudly?"

"Hahaha, that's what Waver said at the time. When he heard his Servant reveal his name, he curled up beside Iskandar and almost cried."

Fang Zheng also laughed.

"But to be honest, this idea is just the idea of ​​ordinary people. Although seeing through the real name may reveal problems, so what? For a Servant like Iskandar, even if he reveals his real name, what weakness can you use to deal with him? If I remember correctly, he died of illness... You can't expect him to not adapt to the local climate as a Servant, right?"

"this……"

Facing Fang Zheng's question, Olga Marie couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Okay, that's all for now. If you want to know what happens next, please wait for the next episode."

Having said this, Fang Zheng slapped the wake-up stick, which made the girls who were listening happily suddenly dissatisfied.

"Hey? Xiaohong, please continue. Who won the battle in the end?"

"We can talk about it later when we drive. Now let's go for a walk outside."

As he spoke, Fang Zheng curled his lips towards the window. At this moment, everyone realized that the train had stopped and the door that had been closed had opened. The fresh and cold wind blew into the carriage, making people feel a little cool and comfortable.

"Come on, let's get off the car and go for a walk."

After sitting on the train for a whole day, everyone was already a little tired. Now they followed Fang Zheng out of the train and started walking around. There was a deserted wilderness nearby, which looked quite remote. But what Fang Zheng felt sorry for was that there were no vendors carrying poles to sell local specialties.

You know, when I went to school by train, there were often vendors selling food or local specialties from the train windows... But...

Well, if you think about it, it seems that Britain doesn’t have any special products.

However, just when Fang Zheng was daydreaming...

"ah--!!"

A sharp scream suddenly rang out, breaking the silence around them.

"What's wrong?"

"What happened?"

Hearing the scream, Ryougi Shiki and Fujino were also startled and hurriedly ran towards the carriage. At the same time, Fang Zheng had already rushed into the carriage, and then came to the door of the guest room where the scream came from, and then... she just stood there.

I saw a body lying on the ground in the guest room. There was no head, so I couldn't tell who it was. But from the slender body, I could tell that it should be a woman.

"What's going on?"

"What's going on? Xiao Hong?"

At this moment, El-Melloi II, Ryougi Shiki and others also hurried over.

"Don't come over here."

Fang Zheng waved his hand, signaling Ryougi Shiki, Fujino and Shizune not to get close. At this moment, El-Melloi II also came to the door with his two apprentices. When he saw the corpse on the ground, he couldn't help but gasp.

"This is……"

Fang Zheng looked around, then walked over to Olga Marie and patted her shoulder.

"Are you okay?"

“I…I…”

Olga Marie didn't seem to come back to her senses until she heard Fang Zheng's voice. She spoke in a hoarse voice.

"I, I was a little carsick, so after parking the car I went to the forest to get some fresh air, and then went to the living room to drink some tea... When I came back, I found that Theresa, Theresa..."

As she spoke, Olga Marie stretched out her trembling hands and, ignoring the blood on the ground, desperately shook the headless corpse.

“…Teresa? Theresa! You must be kidding! Why? Why is this happening?!”

Her cries echoed in the silent carriage, and no one spoke for a while.

"Don't you always look so arrogant? Every time I can't answer a question, don't you smile and hit my palm with a pointer? Why do you sleep in a place like this? Get up and teach me a lesson like you usually do!!"

At this moment, Ryougi Shiki, Fujino and the others also came over. Seeing this scene, they couldn't help but hold their breath and were speechless for a while.

“…”

Fang Zheng didn't say much, just patted her back gently, but at this moment, Olga Marie suddenly turned around and glared at the people behind her.

"You are the murderer! You are the one who killed Theresa, what a joke! Give Theresa back to me! Give her back to me!!"

As she spoke, Olga Marie stood up and wanted to rush over, but the next moment, her legs went weak and she fell into the arms of the girl with red ponytail.

“Wuwuwu…”

Olga Marie clutched the collar of the red ponytail tightly, and lost her voice in pain, while Fang Zheng gently patted her back and stroked her hair to calm her down. After a while, Olga Marie gradually stopped talking, closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

"call……"

Only then did Fang Zheng breathe a sigh of relief, then turned around and glanced at El-Melloi II not far away.

"To be honest, I don't really want to recruit you now. I find that people die wherever you go."

"What do you mean by that?"

Upon hearing this, El-Melloi II became unhappy.

"You're saying I'm the same as the God of Plague."

"Was what I said wrong? Have you forgotten about the stripping city?"

"That... that was just an accident! Besides, it was only that one time, okay!"

"Um... Master..."

However, at this moment, Gray behind her spoke timidly.

"And at Ernest's... at Marbury's... that..."

“…”

Upon hearing his disciple's words, El-Melloi II's face turned so dark that water seemed to be dripping out of it.

"Feel sorry."

However, at this moment, an old man in a black coat came out.

"Can I do the autopsy?"

As he spoke, he looked at the crowd and the conductor who had arrived shortly afterwards.

"Although I'm not an expert, I'm very familiar with this type of corpse, and I might be able to find something. What do you think, Mr. Carriage?"

"Please feel free to do as you please."

The conductor had no reaction to what was happening before his eyes, as if he was already used to it.

"It's just that we still need to clean the room. Considering the departure time, I hope you can finish it within an hour."

"Go ahead and play your detective game."

Fang Zheng picked up Olga Marie and walked towards the door.

"Let's go back first. Leave the child with us until she wakes up."

Back in the guest room, Fang Zheng placed Olga Marie on one of the beds and covered her with a blanket, while the others sat beside her with complicated expressions, not knowing what to say as they looked at the sleeping face of the girl.

"I think... those people's reactions were too calm."

Shizune complained unhappily.

"A person died, but the conductor didn't even show any concern. He looked as if the person who died in the room wasn't a person at all, but a dish that had been spilled!"

"Perhaps it's because this kind of thing is common here. After all, it's a magic eye collection train, and someone might kill other competitors in order to compete for the magic eye... Isn't this a common thing in novels?"

Having said this, Fang Zheng snorted.

"Besides, those guys are not human beings."

"But come to think of it, I never expected a murder would happen."

At this moment, Ryougi Shiki's eyes were shining, and it was obvious that she wanted to find the murderer.

"Shizune, can you see anything with your future vision?"

"I'm sorry... I didn't see anything just now, because I only saw the lady once..."

Shizune shook her head. Her future vision was a predictive vision, which needed to be activated after collecting enough information. However, she and the woman named Theresa had only met briefly at the station last night, and she had not seen her today, so naturally it would not be activated.

"The prophecy spell doesn't work either?"

"My prophecy spells can only affect myself and a few people around me..."

Because she started learning prophecy magic, Jingyin also had the ability to "foresee in advance" similar to Fangzheng, but her "characteristics" of a prophet were still very weak, and would only show a little bit of luck to people who were related to her. Of course, this was just a vague feeling of "good" or "bad".

"Um……"

At this moment, the silver-haired girl lying on the bed woke up slowly. After seeing the unfamiliar ceiling in front of her, she was stunned for a moment, then quickly sat up and looked around.

"Hey, you're awake, how do you feel?"

As he spoke, Fang Zheng handed over a glass of water.

"Drink some water, maybe it will make you feel better..."

“…”

Olga Marie took the cup of water, but did not drink it. Instead, she looked at the four people in confusion.

"What do you mean?"

"Hmm? Just because you fainted, we moved here to rest. We can't let you lie down in a place where a murder happened."

"……snort."

Olga Marie snorted when she heard Fang Zheng's answer.

"It's just this extent. I've been prepared for this. After all, this is the Demon Eye Collection Train... It's not surprising that something like this would happen..."

Although she tried to appear calm, her slightly trembling hands and red eyes were not convincing enough.

"What an unlovable little devil."

Seeing this, Ryougi Shiki also muttered something.

"What does this have to do with you?"

Olga Marie was naturally not to be outdone.

"You, the Thousand World Tree, and our Clock Tower are enemies, right? If that's the case, then you are also suspected of murder. Don't think you can hide it from me!"

"Strictly speaking, our enemy is the Magic Association."

Fang Zheng corrected her with a smile.

"The Clock Tower is only part of it. Besides, we also need to figure out who our friends are and who our enemies are."

"What do you mean?"

Hearing this, Olga Marie frowned and looked at Fang Zheng.

"Do you think that our Animusphia clan will betray the Clock Tower and join your Thousand World Tree?"

"I will discuss this issue with your father in person later."

Fang Zheng waved his hand.

"But now, you should focus on your own safety. The one who was killed...Teresa? She must be your follower. Since she was killed here, the other party might also be coming for you. You'd better be careful."

"You don't need to remind me of this. I am a magician after all!"

"Okay, okay."

Seeing Olga Marie's angry expression, Fang Zheng smiled and patted her head.

"I know you're amazing, but right now...just relax for a while."

Having said that, Fang Zheng took out the wake-up stick again.

"Oh right, since I have nothing to do now, I'll just continue telling that story."

Soon, Fang Zheng started telling the previous story again. Olga Marie listened absentmindedly at first, but gradually, her mind was attracted by Fang Zheng's story of the Holy Grail War. However...

"At this moment, RIDER is about to head to the Fuyuki Bridge to fight Gilgamesh for the final death..."

"boom!!"

Fang Zheng had just finished speaking when a dull thunderclap suddenly sounded, interrupting her story. Hearing the thunder, everyone was startled, and Olga Marie also stood up hurriedly.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"Hmm...it seems something interesting happened..."

Fang Zheng raised his head and looked at the top of the carriage not far away, then smiled meaningfully. Soon, he heard hurried footsteps coming from outside the door.

"I want to go out and take a look."

Perhaps because she felt that something was wrong, Olga Marie could no longer sit still and hurriedly opened the door. Everyone followed her out curiously, and then they saw Gray and Koles hurriedly running over from the corridor carrying El-Melloi II on their backs.

"Wait, what's going on?!"

Seeing this scene, Olga Marie also rushed over hurriedly.

"Have you been attacked?"

"Sorry, please move aside!"

However, the two were obviously in no mood to answer Olga Marie's questions. They just carried El-Melloi II and rushed through the carriage of Fang Zheng and others and came to their own guest room at the back. At this time, Fang Zheng, who had nothing to do, also followed in with the three girls, and Olga Marie followed closely behind.

"Woo wow, this is so sad."

Looking at El-Melloi II lying on the bed in front of him, Fang Zheng whistled. He saw that the back of El-Melloi II, which had been torn apart by Gray, had been completely burnt. He could even smell a bit of barbecue. At this moment, El-Melloi II looked pale and was breathing rapidly. He looked as if he was not far from death.

Colles quickly took out a strange object, placed it next to himself, and then pressed down on El-Melloi II's back.

"This is……"

"The application of the Baghdad battery is still under research... It can improve the teacher's self-healing ability by adjusting the human body's current and activating the vital energy as much as possible... But I don't know if it will be useful..."

"Was it the murderer who did it?"

At this time, Olga Marie, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but ask, but Gray shook her head.

"have no idea."

"What's the meaning?"

"We were indeed attacked, but because it was our personal matter, we cannot tell whether the attackers were the same group that attacked Miss Theresa."

At this point, Gray seemed to have thought of something and quickly raised her head to look at Fang Zheng.

"Miss Red Ponytail, you and...Master are old acquaintances, right? Could you please save him?"

"Um……"

Looking at Gray in front of him, Fang Zheng smiled slightly.

"Save him... Of course no problem, but I have one condition."

"What conditions?"

"After I revive him, you have to tell me why you have this Saber face. I am extremely curious about it."

"this……"

Hearing this, Gray hesitated for a moment, then she nodded vigorously.

"no problem!"
