Chapter 308 Spy
In the dream space, Gregor, who was disguised as a black dog, and the little fox sat together, looking at the screen of Gregor's body in front of them. They saw the Aka believer who called himself a "detective" using Gregor's body to perform a series of operations in the box. They watched from the first person perspective as the assassin's flesh and blood was quickly vaporized into smoke, and the horrific scene when the flesh and blood disappeared and a skeleton emerged seemed to make the little fox feel a little uncomfortable.
"Hmm... Is this talisman so disgusting to use?"
The little fox murmured, while Gregor, who was in the disguise of a black dog, was concentrating on watching his own hands on the screen dismantling the assassin's skull and carefully placing it in the large suitcase beside him. He couldn't help but wonder in confusion what the detective was trying to do.
"Also... this guy who assassinated you seems to be so poor. Apart from a corpse-transforming talisman, he doesn't seem to have any other extraordinary items."
Continuing to watch the live broadcast, the little fox started to complain, and Greg answered from the side.
"No, that's normal. After I arrive in Tivian, I will be taken to the General Administration for basic inspection immediately, so I cannot carry any extraordinary items of unknown origin. They must know this and don't carry more extraordinary items with them."
Gregor explained that for an organization like the Security Bureau, it is necessary to conduct basic screening of incoming members. Due to the limited "light" resources, the level of strictness of such screening will not be particularly high. However, personal belongings must be checked, at least they must be checked under the bright light away from the human body.
Gregor was explaining to the little fox, while in reality, Dorothy in pajamas was sitting on her bed, controlling her brother's body in the train compartment from a distance. Under her control, the bones of the assassin who was turned into skeletons by the corpse seal were picked up one by one and neatly placed in the suitcase. After a while, the whole skeleton was disassembled and packed in. Then Dorothy asked Gregor's body to stuff the remaining hair, clothes and shoes into the suitcase. Finally, the suitcase was closed, and the body of the assassin disguised as a conductor was no longer in the entire compartment. There was only the sound of the wind whistling in the darkness outside the half-open window.
After collecting the assassin's remains, Dorothy's next task was to search for the assassin's accomplice who was still hiding on the train, which was relatively easy for her.
Dorothy's body took out her magic box, opened it and took out a talisman from it. This was the Seeking Talisman. When she helped Adele solve the theater murder case, she gave Dorothy three of these talismans to find the scent of the murderer. Dorothy used one, and now there are two left.
That’s right, Dorothy planned to use smell to find the assassin’s accomplice, and the smell was this big suitcase.
The plan of these people was to skeletonize Gregor's body and put it in this suitcase, and then have other accomplices who were hiding as passengers on the train take it away. So this suitcase used to hold bones was most likely brought on board by the accomplices of the disguised passenger.
After all, the assassin's disguised target was a train conductor. The living space of train conductors on steam trains was very limited. There were only a few rest rooms and the train conductors took turns. With limited private space, there was also limited storage space. In addition, the train conductors' homes were usually at the starting station or the end station of the train. When they came to work on the train, they would only bring some daily necessities. On the train, they were working, not traveling, so they did not need to carry too many items, so they would not use this kind of large suitcase that was obviously used for travel.
It would be inconvenient for an assassin disguised as a conductor to carry such a large suitcase. Therefore, the suitcase was most likely brought on board by the accomplice who was hiding as a passenger, and was handed over to the assassin at some opportunity. It would be very reasonable for someone else to bring it up and then take it down.
So now Dorothy only needs to identify the smell on the box and follow the direction to find the accomplice.
Dorothy paid two points for the "cup" and used the Breath-Seeking Talisman in her hand. She then transmitted the state of the talisman to Gregor's body through the spiritual thread, giving him an extraordinary sense of smell.
After transmitting the effect of the Breath-Seeking Talisman to Gregor, she asked Gregor to bend down and carefully sniff the smell on the box. After carefully identifying the smell information, Gregor slowly stood up, picked up the coat on the sofa and put it on, then picked up the suitcase containing the bones.
Under Dorothy's control, Gregor walked out of the compartment door with his suitcase and came to the corridor of the compartment. He then began to sniff on both sides, and after smelling something, he walked towards the rear compartment.
"Hey, Black Dog, the detective just used your nose to smell the box. Could it be that you, Black Dog, also have a keen nose like a dog in real life?"
In the dream space, the little fox looked at the scene on the screen and curiously asked Gregor beside him, and Gregor responded with a click of his tongue.
"How is this possible? That detective must have done something to my body. Now stop talking nonsense and look carefully..."
Gregor answered the little fox seriously, and then looked at the screen in front of him intently. He saw that his body was moving forward along the aisle of the train, passing through the chain interface of the carriage, and came to the second carriage of the first-class car. As if following something, he walked all the way to the end of the second carriage and stood in front of the door of a compartment. Then he took out a bunch of keys and selected them for a while, then began to open the door.
These keys belonged to the assassin who had disguised himself as a conductor. He had a spare keychain for the first-class carriage, which was used specifically to open Gregor's compartment door. Now they were given to Dorothy.
…
In the train speeding through the dark night, almost all the passengers in the first-class car fell into a deep sleep because the food in the dining car was drugged. However, this was not all...
In a private room of the first-class train, a middle-aged man in a well-fitting suit was sitting on a sofa in the room, holding a document with a bunch of words written on it and a photo attached to it. The photo was a black ID photo of a young man, and the content of the document was his basic resume.
"Gregos Meschos...if everything had gone well, he should be dead by now."
The middle-aged man held his eyes and murmured softly, and at this moment, there was a sound of a key opening the door of his box. Hearing this sound, the man was slightly startled, and then immediately put away the documents in his hand, looked towards the door with vigilance, and reached into the darkness to grasp the weapon.
The door of the box was opened, and then he saw a familiar young man standing at his door, the same one he had just seen in the document. This young man had a smile on his face, and in his hand was a suitcase that was even more familiar to him.
The man's heart tightened the moment he saw Qingge, and he almost drew his weapon. However, when he saw the suitcase in Qingge's hand, he suddenly suppressed his impulse. He looked at Qingge at the door with suspicion and asked tentatively.
"Mr. Yadlin?"
Listening to the man's words, Greg, under Dorothy's control, kept smiling and walked straight into the box. After closing the door, he handed the suitcase in his hand to the man and spoke.
"It's already been taken care of, take it."
Hearing the words of "Mr. Yadlin", the man immediately took the suitcase from Gregor's hand, put it on the table, gently opened it a little to take a look, and laughed after seeing the bones inside.
"Is that guy already in here? He's really fast, Mr. Yadlin. You're really skilled."
"Heh... I just killed an apprentice who was in such a deep sleep that he had no chance to resist. I can't say that I had any skills, but I spent a lot of time picking up the bones."
The man spoke to Gregor in a flattering tone, and Gregor did not respond indifferently. As he spoke, he sat directly on the sofa in the box.
Then, Gregor turned his head to look at his blurry reflection in the glass, gently touched his face, as if checking something, and asked the man in a low voice.
"Any questions?"
