The main target of this trip is a modified off-road vehicle parked in the branch garage, and the direction of this trip is not out of the city.
Those people were seeking death, and he didn't want to remind them anything.
The branch arrived soon.
The messy signs fell to the ground, and the surface was covered with blood and shoe prints.
The ground was littered with body parts and debris, and there were fires in some places... The smell of barbecue, gunpowder mixed with blood and rottenness penetrated into the nose, and even Xia Yibing began to frown.
They ignored the tragic scene and quickly entered the Chamber of Commerce branch, where they found the SUV in the garage as they had hoped.
"Look what I found!"
Sixus's voice came from next door.
Everyone followed and saw a carved wooden boat next door.
"I refuse to take it." Russell shook his head, "It's too heavy and affects efficiency."
"I think it's OK," Hitzfeld said.
The others turned to look at her.
She tried her best to remain calm: "Well...actually I'm not very good at swimming either."

Ah, let me confess why I have been holding back on releasing the list for some time, leading to so many of them accumulating.
It’s mainly because of some individuals. Some people’s IDs are too weird. I think they may be changed after a while and I will release them then.
The result does not change.
Fine then, I’ll let it go, I can’t let it go…

Chapter 51: Forest Ridge Epidemic Part 4
Aisun?
Everyone else was fine, but Xia Yibing looked at the girl with a different look.
Hitzfeld can swim.
She had confirmed this question again and again on the way to the Crystal Sea. Hitzfeld could swim, but he was not very good at it.
Like at sea, in rough waves, she might not be a very good swimmer. But if the target is the Winden River, which has become wider and the water is no longer turbulent, she should have no difficulty in dealing with it.
It’s worth pondering why she said that… Was it to relieve Conte’s embarrassment?
She does have the noble sentiment of actively sacrificing some of her own advantages to help her friends.
But it’s not like… Her method in this regard has always been very good, and sometimes the people being helped don’t even notice it. It shouldn’t be so obvious and stiff.
Xia Yibing quickly eliminated a bunch of possibilities in her mind, her eyes slowly dropped to the ground, and she finally found the information that she had been ignoring.
On the dark red ground that emitted a foul smell, there were also some traces of fresh blood dripping and being smashed open.
It was drop by drop... They spread all the way to the innermost part of the garage, just behind the wooden boat, at the angle between it and some sundries.
So you are afraid of alarming the target, so you use this method to remind me...
The deduction was successful, and Xia Yibing's mouth corners curled up.
Especially since no one else in the team felt that there was anything wrong and was still arguing about whether it was necessary to bring the wooden boat, she felt even happier and had a sense of pride that "I finally understand her".
"We can try the load capacity of the vehicle and then consider whether to take it with us..."
Eugenie tended to speak for the girl during the argument because he had to consider his new wife - it was never good to stay in the water for too long.
"We can actually take it." Moore also supported Hitzfeld, but for a different reason: "If we don't change our goal to Berwyn County, we will definitely have to swim upstream. It's impossible to swim across, and they won't give us time to slowly build a boat."
"There must be hunters and fishermen in Senling, or at least positions like forest rangers..." Russell was still arguing, "It's not that we want to build a boat, but the shacks on the shore, the probability of finding a boat there is also very high..."
Russell was stunned before he finished the rest of the words. He saw the gray-haired girl and the ponytailed woman rushing towards the corner with guns in hand at the same time, and two bullets forced out a man hiding there.
…I actually forgot to check the scene first!
Russell opened his mouth with a throbbing heart, and suddenly realized that he and others seemed to be used as tools by Hitzfeld.
She didn't want to alarm the hiding guy, so she deliberately used the sound of their argument to confuse him.
The others also paused, and they turned their eyes to the survivor. They could see that he was wearing a short light brown windbreaker... and a crooked felt hat on his head. He was short and stocky, and his round face looked a little funny when he was anxious.
"Don't kill me!" Facing the light, the short and fat man raised his hands to protect his face and waved them wildly in front of him.
"I'm a human too! I haven't turned into that kind of monster...Oh no! It's impossible for me to turn into one of them! Don't kill me! Oh my god!!"
"Shut up!" Xia Yibing raised her boot and kicked him, knocking him sprawling.
They took the opportunity to take a closer look at his waist, and everyone's expressions began to become serious because they saw a holster hanging on this man's waist.
"Put your hands where we can see them." Eugenie approached with familiarity, "Put your hands above your head and lie down... Yes... Very good... Now I need to get something, you'd better not move."
The man was pointed at with more guns, so he had no choice but to do as he was told. He pressed down and pulled the holster away, revealing a very well-maintained old Planck.
This is a real Mauser pistol. Its power and accuracy are a bit lacking today, but it is still capable of killing people.
After searching him and finding no other weapons, Eugenie got up.
"Who are you?" Seeing that Hitzfeld had no intention of speaking for the time being, Xia Yibing had to take the initiative to take over the job, "Why are you hiding in this place?"
The man's hat was removed during the body search, and when he stood up, everyone saw two streaks of white hair at his temples.
Xia Yibing felt that this look looked familiar, as if she had seen similar features somewhere.
"I'm Alaga-Makai." The man trembled and said, "I'm from Sharo... I'm a detective hired by Lord Bos..."
It's him--
They finally reacted. After all, they had basically read the newspaper, and it was one of the few opportunities for them to collect intelligence.
But in the photo published in the newspaper, the detective Mackey shouldn't be that fat...
Comparing the image with the arrogant dwarf in the black and white photo, they couldn't help but turn their eyes to his belly.
"Well... we need to disguise ourselves when taking photos..." The so-called detective Ma Kai was forced to explain to them, and then he asked them more urgently: "I suggest you take me with you wherever you go... Really, I know a lot of secrets here..."
"Do you know where the ranger's residence is?" Hitzfeld asked him suddenly.
"I know!" Ma Kai nodded immediately. "When I first came here, I walked almost everywhere here... Not to mention the forest ranger, I also know two hidden docks."
He had heard them arguing just now...arguing about whether to bring a boat or not...so he thought they might need this information.
"Just tell me where it is." Russell pressed forward.
"No, no, I can't tell you!" Ma Kai stepped back in fear. "If I tell you, it will be worthless. Who knows if you will still help me?"
Russell looked at Hitzfeld.
The others also looked at Hitzfeld and saw the girl nodding her chin.
Compared to a wooden boat, a person takes up much less space.
And judging from the fact that Ma Kai was hiding here, he was a discarded pawn of the Deathly Haunted Party. The newspapers described his past experiences, which at least showed that he had a clean background.
It couldn't be that the information was forged to deceive them because the newspaper was from a day ago.
A day ago, even they themselves didn't know when they would arrive in Senling, and the time didn't match according to the printing process.
So just like that, Alaga-Makai temporarily joined the team.
The two sides agreed that they would escort Ma Kai out of Senling City, and Ma Kai would be responsible for guiding them to the location of the dock. If the ship they found had enough space, they would take Ma Kai with them, and after they escaped from danger and arrived in other counties, Ma Kai would give them additional rewards.
"boom--"
The roar of motors could be heard on the quiet street.
A group of refugees cowered in the corner of the street, arguing among themselves whether or not to go in with "the previous group of people"... They watched in amazement as a large modified off-road vehicle with a very intimidating front face smashed open the iron gate and rushed out, drawing a semi-circle on the street and rumbling away with a harsh friction sound.
Inside the car, Xia Yibing sat in the driver's seat, and Hitzfeld was forced to curl up in her arms.
There was no other way, there wasn't enough space in the car. The woman didn't want to be squeezed in the back seat with others, and they couldn't tie her up outside like they had originally planned, so she had to sit like this.
Jerry and Sixus were squeezing in the passenger seat, which made the back seat look spacious, with only Russell, Eugenie, Moore, and Mackay sitting upright.
"Thank you from the bottom of my heart—"
All the way, Ma Kai kept talking.
"Not only did you take me away, you also bandaged me... You are all good people... You are noble people! Heroes! I swear that when we get to Berwyn County, I will give you a lot of money! Really, I have quite a bit of savings in the bank..."
"You don't need to use your wealth to bribe our Mr. Mackay." Eugenie interrupted him with a frown.
So much nonsense.
He may not know that anyone sitting here has a net worth far exceeding his so-called savings.
But he was not thick-skinned enough to show off his wealth directly, which led Ma Kai to mistakenly believe that he "did not have enough chips" and he began to describe the assets that might not even exist in reality in a more exaggerated tone.
"You don't understand. When I was invited to investigate a case in Wenquan, Mr. Carloni personally gave me a fist-sized ruby..."
"Excuse me." Hitzfeld couldn't stand it anymore. She felt the strange squeezing sensation on her chest and said, "Why don't you describe how you survived?"
She was not "sitting" in the woman's arms.
The single seat of an off-road vehicle is relatively larger, but it is not that spacious, and it is not easy for a woman to drive.
So she was... facing the woman, with her legs spread out in her skirt, and she was lying on top of the woman in a straddle position, with her body pressed tightly against hers.
This way, the space can be used to the maximum extent without blocking the view, allowing Xia to drive normally.
It's just a bit embarrassing to the touch.
There was also the light breath falling gently on her neck... which would make her tremble from time to time.
She had to find something else to talk about.
Otherwise, the situation would be too embarrassing.
Chapter 52: The Mysterious Leader of the Dead Souls
After another exaggerated description, everyone finally understood how Alaga-Makai had fallen into this situation.
He was originally invited by the Lord of Bos City to investigate nightmare evil spirits, and lived in the Lord's Mansion, with young girls serving him when he ate, drank, washed and slept. He also apparently heard that Bos-Lias was involved with the Dead Spirits, and he had to show up every day to get benefits.
They gave him this "pretense" label themselves. According to Ma Kai, he was very conscientious and never wasted every minute that could be used to investigate the case.
Today was the same, he went out to visit the lower levels accompanied by his maid to collect clues for a missing person case that happened the night before yesterday. Normally, he should go back to the city lord's mansion or find a hotel to stay at this time, but the beautiful maid kept giving him "hints", so he was obsessed and wanted to take her to have some fun.
Having fun requires money... and you can't expect to have reliable banks in a place like Senling City. The only place where merchants and pawns can deposit and withdraw money is at the branches of the big chambers of commerce, and the Thornbirds Chamber of Commerce branch is naturally one of them.
But soon after they entered, there was chaos outside.
According to Ma Kai's description, he heard screams and many extremely creepy roars that were not like those of human beings at all... and then he saw those monsters killing people.
"But what makes me most angry is that bitch!" At this point, Ma Kai had to pull out his arms from the backlog and waved his fists fiercely at the air in front of him, "She actually wanted to push me out! Fortunately, I was prepared for her abnormality... When she did something bad, I hooked her legs tightly... She wanted to push me, but I threw her out instead, and she was torn into pieces by them! Ha!"
"..." The air was gradually filled with a substance called embarrassment. Old Moore, who had been sitting next to him and had not spoken a word, suddenly spoke up: "If you really had been prepared, then why did you withdraw the money?"
Ma Kai opened his mouth in shock for a moment, having never expected to be questioned like this.
"Of course I am..." He began to stutter, "I want to seduce her... Yes! I use money to trick her into revealing her true colors... I have a lot of experience in this area. Those hateful women always try to conquer me with their beauty, naively thinking that I will succumb -"
