Chapter 533 Old Acquaintance

"I never expected that I would actually go to Antarctica..."

Standing on the airship field, looking at the huge airship in front of her, Mary felt that everything in front of her was not like reality.

Suddenly, Professor Palmer of the Department of History invited himself to his seminar.

Suddenly, Professor Palmer said that he would go to Antarctica for research.

Suddenly, he planned to take himself along with him.

It wasn't until she learned what had happened from Duanmuhuai that Mary finally understood what had happened.

To be honest, after calculating the cost of this investigation, Mary couldn't help but feel trembling.

It was not because of excitement or fear, but simply because of the huge amount... It was an astronomical figure that Mary, a middle-class woman, could never imagine in her entire life.

Not to mention, Duanmuhuai is not the kind of person who wants to endure hardships, so their voyage is also extremely luxurious according to the arrangement. First, take an airship from Fog to Tierra del Fuego, and then take a boat from Tierra del Fuego to Antarctica. Of course, the deployment facilities have been deployed in place.

In fact, if possible, Duanmuhuai would like to go directly to Antarctica by airship.

On the one hand, it is because of convenience, and on the other hand...well, do you know where R'lyeh is?

La Laiye is located at 47° 9' south latitude and 126° 43' west longitude... yes, just west of Tierra del Fuego.

Maybe it's time to turn a corner and have a seafood barbecue with Cthulhu.

Although Duanmuhuai wasn't afraid of Cthulhu, he didn't want to let himself smell like fish, didn't he?

Unfortunately, given the climate conditions in Antarctica, the plane is okay, but the airship is a bit difficult. So Duanmu Huai had no choice but to take a boat from Tierra del Fuego to Antarctic Island, hoping that Cthulhu would not be stupid to come and trouble him.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Duanmu."

At this moment, Professor Palmer was also blushing with excitement, holding Duanmu Huai's hands tightly. It is good to have a rich and not afraid to spend money. If it is public funds, let alone take the airship, they have to take the worst third-class cabin. After all, public funds are limited. In this kind of inspection, Naturally, it is necessary to break a penny into two and spend it. In terms of life and transportation, it is natural to save as much as possible. It is not like Duanmu Huai, who directly bought an airship with a wave of his hand. Such a comfortable inspection, a few more times Palmer won't be tired.

And right now is the best time to go to Antarctica. Although other places are about to enter winter at this moment, Antarctica is just in summer, and the daylight hours are the longest. Although airships are not as fast as airplanes, they are also much faster than ships. Taking advantage of this opportunity, maybe my expedition team can grab a starting line and occupy a good position!

While most people are in high spirits, there are exceptions.

Like Lorena.

"Hey? It's an airship again, so there won't be another accident..."

"Miss Lorena? What's your name?"

Seeing that the girl who was always smiling now had a bitter face, Mary also asked curiously, and Miss Lorena also sighed.

"Because when Sir Knight and I came to Wudu by airship, there was a murder of a cultist on the airship... It was tiring."

"Hey?! Kill, murder incident???"

Hearing this, Mary was also taken aback. After all, she had only seen this kind of thing in mystery novels, so she had never heard of it in reality!

"No, but don't worry, Miss Lorena, Mr. Duanmu has chartered the airship this time, and there are no outsiders except us..."

"The murderer last time was the doctor on the airship."

“……………………”

Hearing this, Mary had nothing to say, but Duanmuhuai walked over and patted Lorena on the head.

"Okay, don't worry, Lorena, I assure you, it will be fine this time."

"Why?"

Soon, Lorena understood why Duanmuhuai said that this time it must be all right.

Because what he chartered this time was the "Full Moon and Stars" they took when they came...

"Because of the murder incident, the business of this airship has not been very good recently. I thought the price was cheap, so I simply rented it."

“……………………”

Looking at the airship in front of her, Lorena was speechless.

Still have this kind of operation? ? ?

So Lorena finally figured out why Duanmuhuai was so confident. The crew on this ship had been interrogated by Duanmuhuai before. Except for the ship doctor, everyone else was innocent, which meant that they should not Problem again. But... Mr. Knight, isn't it a bit too much for you to stroke a sheep back and forth like this?

Although Lorena was helpless, Duanmu Huai didn't care at all, and he even introduced it to Mary.

"Look, it's here, this smoking room, where the victim was killed at that time, and a strange magic circle was drawn with his blood, and the walls are full of profane runes... Oh, it seems to be cleaned up now..."

Hearing this, Mary's face turned pale. She looked at the smoking room as if she was looking at the entrance of hell, and even subconsciously took two steps back.

"By the way, which room do you plan to live in?"

"Please be sure to arrange me in a room away from here, thank you......"

While talking, everyone walked through the corridor and came to the viewing platform, where the captain was waiting for their arrival. Seeing Duanmuhuai, the captain also showed a warm smile and saluted Duanmuhuai.

"It's been a long time, sir, you are still the same as before."

"It's okay, but you don't look very good."

"Hey, there's no way..."

Faced with Duanmuhuai's ridicule, the captain also smiled wryly. The previous killing incidents did bring them a lot of trouble, simple killings are fine, but the problem is that the cultists killed people, so that there were endless rumors about the "Full Moon and Stars" at the port pier, what? The soul of the man who was slain is trapped by evil magic and is still wandering in the cabin, ready to take other people's souls or something...

Those who can take an airship are those who don't want to wrong themselves, and of course they don't want to take an unlucky airship. Therefore, the "Full Moon and Stars" has been operating poorly in the past few months. Even the captain was a little disheartened, and wanted to simply transfer the airship——even if it was transferred, no one wanted it.

Just at this time, Duanmuhuai saw the news and contacted the captain. The captain will naturally not forget the benefactor who saved himself and others in the fire and water. If it wasn't for Duanmuhuai and Lorena's actions, they would have been buried in the sea with the airship long ago, let alone come back alive, so they naturally agreed.

Anyway, there is no business now, and it is a good thing to be able to open.

The captain has already decided that after this business is over, he will change the name of the Full Moon Fanxing, otherwise he may find it difficult to receive guests in his life.
