Chapter 141: Inquiry
“I seem to have seen it before.” Gillan said.
"Really, sir?" The red-haired female student looked happy and asked quickly: "Where are you?"
"Wait a moment."
Gilan With that said, he turned around and walked towards the end of the carriage.
Sure enough, he saw the wrench next to the trash can in the corner.
Bending down to pick it up, Jilan sighed secretly.
When he watched this film for the first time in the secret room of the police station, it was with the help of this wrench that he unexpectedly attacked a death row prisoner and escaped from the forest immediately. The hunting of tribute wolves.
He returned to the front seat with the wrench and handed it to the female student.
“Thank you!” the red-haired female student said in surprise. She put it back into the tool box and then remembered something. She quickly looked up and apologized to Gillan: "Sorry, sir, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Lilia Eng, a recent graduate from the Department of Mechanical Engineering."< br>
"Gilan Iros, a wine merchant."
Gilan said.
"Miss Lilia, do you need my help?"
"Ah, thank you so much."
The red-haired girl stood up with the toolbox in hand. smiled.
She said, crossing Gilan and walking straight towards the car at the front of the train.
At this moment, the other passengers followed the plot and started to open the train doors and get off one after another.
Gilan ignored them and followed Lilia.
While watching the movie this time, he planned to get points while also contacting other passengers to see if he could dig out more details about the movie.
The red-haired female student is a good target.
In the front compartment of the train, Gillan found the boiler room, which was located on the side of the control room. Lilia was squatting next to the coal stove, opening a cover and prying something with a wrench.
"Mr. Gillan, please help me see if there are any loose screws on the other side." She said without raising her head.
Gilan remained silent, went to the other side, and opened the symmetrical cover, revealing some metal levers and gear structures inside.
“Nothing is loose, everything is intact.” He glanced at it and took the opportunity to say: “I didn’t expect Miss Lilia to even know how to repair trains.”
“Not really, I just Just some basic checks.”
Lilia closed the cover, raised her head, wiped her sweat and smiled at Gilan.
Her face showed pride again.
“My sister Barbara Engel is the real mechanical genius. She is four years older than me. She was admitted to the Imperial Military in advance when she was studying in the academy. Now she is involved in some extreme projects. Important research and development operation."
As he spoke, Lilia stood up and sighed.
"But I haven't contacted her for almost two years. This time I am taking advantage of my graduation and plan to go north to Peel City to find her."
"So that's it." Jilan nodded. "It sounds like Miss Barbara is also an extremely good mechanical engineer."
But he secretly thought in his heart:
'The girl Maiev went north to avoid the Cult of Heavenly Evil. He was studying in Peel City, and Lilia in front of him was looking for her sister... Most of the twelve passengers on the train had their own reasons, but their final destination was Peel City. ’
‘There is the stage of the story. ’
“It’s really strange. There was no fault, so why did the train stop suddenly and everyone disappeared...”
Lilia said with a confused look on her face.
Bang! Bang bang!
Suddenly gunshots were heard outside the train.
There were also faint screams of panic and angry shouts.
“What happened?!” Lilia was startled and turned to look.
Of course Gillan knew.
Because according to the plot, the passengers waiting for rescue outside the train should have been attacked by a pack of tribute wolves at this time.
But he pretended to be confused, turned around and ran to the car window to look out, and then said in a deep voice:
"A monster attacked other passengers! Let's leave quickly!"
After that , he pulled Lilia out of the boiler room, ran to the next car, opened the door and jumped out.
As soon as they got out of the car, before Lilia could stand still, she was shocked. Because nearly ten headless gray-black beasts appeared all around and were attacking the remaining passengers. Some people shot, and some fought with bare hands. The scene was dangerous, but fortunately there were no casualties yet.
“Let’s go this way.”
Gilan pulled her and pointed in the direction of the train track.
"Well, okay!" Lilia also knew the seriousness of the matter, so she ran forward after the blond young man.
The two ran a long distance and came to the beach.
There is no trace of the train behind me.
Lilia fell to the ground exhausted, squatting on the ground panting, sweating profusely.
Gilan didn't blush or breath, and slowly took out a handkerchief and handed it over.
"Thank...thank you." Lilia took the handkerchief and thanked her.
She wiped her sweat and looked up to see the young man looking as if nothing had happened, and was surprised.
Is this man made of iron?
After running for so long, why is there no reaction at all!
“By the way, has Miss Lilia ever heard of ‘mercury batteries’?”
Gilan’s eyes swept across the distance of the seaside without leaving a trace, and he asked.
"Mercury battery..."
Lilia was stunned for a moment, then thoughtful.
“Two years ago, I seemed to have heard it from my sister, but it involved confidentiality, so she didn’t say much to me... She only said that the raw materials were very rare and needed to be extracted from the body of a special creature, but the current technology It's not mature yet, this kind of energy only exists in theory."
"How does Mr. Gillan know this?" she asked suspiciously.
“I also heard people talk about it.”
Gillan said perfunctorily.
He actually didn't expect that this red-haired female student would actually know when he asked casually. And from what the other party said, it seems that mercury batteries have not been developed at the current stage.
He was thoughtful, thought of something, and said abruptly:
"Miss Lilia, your sister is working in the secret department of the Bremen Empire?"
"The Bremen Empire?" Lilia looked weird. "Sorry sir, I have never heard of this country, and this is the Munich Empire..."
Ji Lan was startled.
Did you guess wrong?
‘No, maybe it’s the artistic processing of the film that makes the name different. ’
Gilan thought.
He had an intuition that this film was probably based on the Bremen Empire.
After all, Ms. Wood Pigeon watched "Hammer of Justice" and discovered that Sabotea Louis' retreat was located in Braque City, but it was called "Black Town" in the film.
This is a typical example.
"Sorry, I made a slip of the tongue." Gillan said. "I was reading some fictional novels recently, and there was a 'Bremen Empire' in it. I got confused."
"So that's it." Lilia was doubtful.
She was silent for a while, nodded, and answered Gilan’s question:
"Sister does work in the secret department, but I don't know what she is doing specifically."
Jilan nodded.
At this time, he noticed that some moving figures began to appear on the seaside in the distance, heading here.
‘Here we come…’
His eyes were indifferent.
Accompanied by the distorted colored light, an ax suddenly appeared in his hand.
"Miss Lilia, wait for me here for a while, I will be back soon."
