Chapter 37 Dress:
Ronald had never ridden on a steam locomotive during the Industrial Revolution.
But I can guarantee that this trip, which is very new to young people in the 21st century, is definitely not a good outing experience.
Slow speed, boring time, and long supply time after the train arrives at the station.
Everything is seriously slowing down the travel process.
Not to mention the unexpected events Ronald encountered after the sky began to darken.
——The train actually stopped on a section of track in the wild!
"."
Ronald, who was sitting on the chair with his arms crossed, raised his eyebrows.
Something's not right -
according to the train timetable I inquired about before, the Dongfeng will arrive in Burrenwich in about two hours. This is absolutely unmistakable information.
So why stop now?
If the railway is congested, the train will stop too early.
If the front end of the car breaks down, there will be no warning signs before.
——So these two assumptions can be ruled out.
But apart from these two situations, is there any reason for a moving train to stop on the railway two hours away from the platform?
This is a steam train.
This is not a children’s bicycle that can be started and stopped at any time!
Even if someone is lying on the track in front, the train driver will most likely not be able to detect it and drive directly over without stopping.
So the current situation can only be...
"Hurry up -"
"You guys stay safe, let's go back!"
"Don't miss any movement!"
His meditation was suddenly interrupted by a voice coming from outside.
Turning sideways and looking through the car window next to him, Ronald could see several figures starting to stand along the railway, obviously wary of something.
"Hey, why are
you stopping?" "Young man, come here!"
Someone in the car next to him immediately opened the window and called to the alert people.
It's a pity that no one responded.
The dedicated security personnel did not even look at these passengers who spoke in a bad tone.
In the third compartment of this carriage, Ronald quietly watched the scene outside the car. He did not open the window out of curiosity to observe anything.
He just sat on the chair, quietly feeling the uneasiness spreading.
Soon, some uneasy voices began to appear from the next seat:
"Kaomui?"
"Why did the train stop!"
"Dear, wait a minute, I'll go out and take a look."
"Oh my God!"
"Why suddenly Stopped!"
"The train has started so late, how dare they continue to delay?" "
I'm going to Burrenwich to negotiate a big deal!"
"Does the conductor dare to take responsibility?"
"."
Cuo Cong's complicated voice From the ears, there were sounds of opening and closing doors.
Obviously, the train's stagnation made all the passengers on the train unsatisfied.
After all, these are voices made out of anger or panic.
It cannot be faked.
However, sitting calmly in the car, Ronald always felt that something was not right.
It's not about the scene I saw before me.
He may have forgotten something very important!
"."
"Why do I suddenly feel like I'm going to be shot?"
Ronald muttered in his mind, and began to sort out all the encounters after boarding the train.
In fact, there aren't many things going on.
Escape the fare and get on the bus - see off Nassos - eat in the dining car.
Although there are details in the process, the activity route is basically clear at a glance.
There is very little interaction with people on the train. The guards checking tickets and the old gentlemen chatting up during meals will not cause any trouble to me.
Now that he was alone, there was no way Nessus could...
wait!
Sitting on the chair in the carriage, Ronald's stiff eyes gradually began to move downward.
Finally, lock firmly at 35°.
Right at the end of his gaze, under the chair directly opposite Ronald.
At this moment, a wooden suitcase lay quietly, and even his towel was taken out of it.
"."
"Oh, it's over."
In an instant, indescribable feelings poured out of his chest.
Ronald had reason to believe that this suitcase would become his biggest trouble today.
He even had the urge to throw the box right out of the window.
But even after doing so, there were already people standing guard outside.
And riding on a carriage, it was impossible for him to distance himself from Nessos.
So,
what did this guy go out and do after he fell asleep last night?
When he woke up this morning, he noticed that Nessus's sleeping position was different from last night, not to mention that his hands had regained all their mobility!
Ronald wished Nessus hadn't done anything.
But the ability this guy has shown along the way, and the strong desire to get on this train.
They all seem to be hinting at themselves.
There is a high probability that this trouble will happen to me!
"."
"This is not the time to hesitate."
We must take action!
After confirming that there was still no movement on the other side of the carriage door, Ronald bent down and pulled out the suitcase.
Snap -
push open the wooden cover, and the contents inside can be seen at a glance.
"."
"Very good."
The corners of his mouth twitched, and Ronald's expression almost twisted into a ball.
If he could, he would very much like to punch Nessus in the face.
There isn't much in the box.
Eliminate what you took out in the morning and now it’s almost clear what’s left.
Four unused metal capsules, a dagger in a custom-made scabbard, a few used bloody bandages, and a piece of hardened bread.
Finally, it is also eye-catching.
On the right side of the suitcase, there is a very well protected compartment.
There was a blue lady's dress inside.
The texture is soft yet elastic, and the smooth surface can be seen reflecting the luster without treatment. On some exposed open back parts, simple yet luxurious textures decorate the corners of the dress.
Ronald can guarantee that judging by his eyesight, this is the most valuable piece of clothing he has seen since time travel.
Not to mention the passengers in the high-sounding luxury carriages outside now.
Even if you take the dress from Ronald's ancestral home, I'm afraid it can only hold up one skirt.
"You guy."
Bang Bang Bang -
"Open the door!"
"Check!"
Before Ronald could continue to accuse Nessos of the big trouble he had left for him.
There was a rapid knock on the door and a man's order with a bad tone.
Immediately, another man shouted in panic:
"What are you doing? I'm a legal resident of Burrenwich!" A
majestic and calm male voice appeared outside:
"Routine inspection."
"."
"Excuse me"
this carriage The inspection has started.
But luckily among misfortunes.
The compartment where Ronald is located is the third one in the carriage, so it will take some time for the inspector to arrive.
Now, prepare yourself for trouble!
Phew—
suddenly, a sourceless wind blew through the closed carriage.
On Ronald's wrist inside his sleeve, the funnel-shaped mark representing the Divine Comedy flashed faintly.
The sin of 'rape', one of the nine hells.
Activated!
