Chapter 281 Picking up people at the station
LR417 - February - 14th.
Ronald walked out of his apartment, his mind still filled with the list he had recited before.
Previously in [Practical Power Communications Company], Mu Li's request was agreed to by Clark.
As a result, Ronald was left in charge of the Great Witch alone.
Even taking into account the mood of the big witch, the Bureau of Investigation asked Ronald to be responsible for the reception of the big witch on his own, while the people from the Bureau would secretly provide support.
Before going out today, Ronald was reciting the list given to him by the Bureau of Investigation. If necessary, he could directly contact various locations and methods of the Bureau of Investigation in Springs.
"The big witch..."
murmuring, Ronald stopped a taxi and headed to the train station.
Different from the way he entered the springs, this powerful spellcaster from [Twelve Witches] chose to come to this city by train.
Before arriving at the train station, Ronald sat on the carriage seat and looked at the distant street scene, and began to recall the intelligence he had collected in the past two days.
The first time he heard about the organization [Twelve Witches] was when he was in Burrenwich.
The impression of this organization at that time was simply that it was a mysterious school that supported the White Bird Business Federation.
However, with the information support of [Scroll Research Association].
Ronald knew better now.
This [Twelve Witches] is also a school that split from the [Original Witches Coven] a long time ago. The core idea of the school is that witches provide help and protection to each other and continue the school without infringing on others.
To be more specific, the organization "Twelve Witches" is built around twelve "great witches" and holds a total of three original books with different effects.
And the one who entered the Springs this time was a real original holder.
It has a long history and always has a friendly attitude. Under such circumstances, the Investigation Bureau will make such an arrangement.
After thinking about this for a while, the carriage Ronald was riding in stopped.
The coachman immediately reminded:
"Sir, the train station has arrived."
Ronald immediately responded:
"Ah, are we here already?"
"Thank you."
He jumped out of the carriage and took out the change to pay the other party.
Finally, amid the sound of the carriage driving away behind him, Ronald raised his head and looked at the building in front of him.
— Springs Railway Station.
This train station located in the capital of the Greed Empire was far superior to the Burrenwich train station that Ronald had seen in every aspect.
In terms of architecture, floor space, flow of people, environment,
etc., the Springs Railway Station is much more high-end than the Burrenwich Railway Station. Anyone standing at the entrance to the train station can appreciate what a prosperous city the Springs is.
"So, it's time to wait for someone..."
After muttering in a low voice, Ronald turned his head and looked at the clock tower of the train station.
The time on it is 10:27 and 11 seconds in the morning, which is a little more than one second off from my original timer.
And if the train that the great witch was riding would arrive on time, it should be exactly eleven o'clock.
Given the punctuality of trains in this era, Ronald now had plenty of time.
So he stretched out his hand to straighten his collar, and then Ronald stepped towards the train station. What followed was pure waiting.
The boring wait has always been long.
Especially waiting for your goal to appear is even more boring.
Ronald stood on the platform of the train station, half leaning against the wall, quietly waiting for the big witch to appear.
In his sight, on the other side were various buildings in the train station.
Occasionally, you can see gorgeous carriages entering the train station from the exclusive passage, and then the men and women in gorgeous clothes get off and enter directly into the platform. Now Ronald can only pass the time by looking at these various people.
Woohoo--
finally, after being twenty minutes late.
The sound of an approaching train reached Ronald's ears.
Because the planned track would not change, Ronald was certain that this was the train carrying the great witch.
Finally, it’s time to see the goal of your reception.
With this thought in his mind, Ronald lifted his back from the wall, then patted his clothes gently to shake off the almost invisible dust.
After all, we have to stay together for a while.
When you meet for the first time, it’s better to leave a better impression on the other person.
However, while the train was stopping at the station, Ronald suddenly noticed a detail.
A beautiful young woman in a long black dress walked out from the platform, holding a water bottle in her hand, and took a sip.
"..."
[Original Witch Coven]...
seems to have a curse that requires looking at the enemy and then releasing it with the help of medicine in the mouth...
As he looked over, Ronald immediately realized this.
Sure enough, after the girl drank the water, he noticed that the corners of the guy's mouth were slightly raised, as if he was laughing at the people on the train.
There was no hesitation.
Under Ronald's wide sleeves, the black original book appeared in his hand.
"Its name is Styx.
The black water flows down to the foot of the dark and steep cliff.
..."
This is really looking for trouble...
He shook his head helplessly, and through the perception of the ability of "The Divine Comedy" , Ronald already understood that the girl was watching the incoming train with strong hostility.
This kind of timing, this kind of action.
It was almost no surprise that this guy was here to snipe the big witch.
The mysterious side of this world is relatively unpretentious.
Even if most spellcasters can cast spells, they are still humans who cannot modify their body structure.
Decapitation, heart-piercing, poison...
these methods that can kill ordinary people are also useful when the caster is unprepared.
Therefore, it is natural for such an assassination operation to occur.
After receiving the mission, I haven't seen anyone yet, so I have to be the first to serve... I
thought in my heart, and a small amount of black mist quietly covered my palms.
Suppressing the sound of his footsteps, Ronald changed an angle so that he would not be easily noticed by the other party, and approached the girl.
The train entered the station and there were many pedestrians on the platform.
With Ronald deliberately hiding, the witch who was preparing to cast a spell and staring at the train with all her concentration did not notice his approach at all.
Snap -
very smoothly, Ronald's black-fog palm lightly patted her shoulder.
Feeling an irresistible force pouring into her body, when she realized this, the witch also lost the chance to resist.
Her vision instantly went dark, and her body fell backwards unconsciously.
And at the moment when the witch completely lost consciousness.
The last voice she heard was Ronald's caring yet hypocritical greeting:
"Hello, lady?"
"Are you okay?"
