Starry Sky Railway: I Intruded with the Heart of God

Chapter 88 The Demon's Trail II

"This letter seems to confirm the rumors that the water demon has not been caught for a long time because of the protection of accomplices."

Look at the second stanza: "Inquire closely about the traces of the demon, and observe the corner where it is contained" clearly guides us to investigate the activity range of the water demon; while "sympathetically conspiring with it" points out the existence of accomplices.

As for the other six lines, in my opinion, some depict the accomplice's appearance, while others reveal the water demon's true hiding place. Unfortunately, I have no clue how to decipher the remaining information.

Now that the work has come to a temporary halt, and given the existence of this informant letter, it's time to seize the opportunity and bring the mantid issue back to the forefront. What are your thoughts, gentlemen?

Xing said with great interest, "I agree with seeing things through to the end!"

“I agree. I didn’t expect Wen Mingde to let this thing go. It’s really wrong,” Mo Li said.

Mo Li even began to suspect that Wen Mingde was an accomplice.

"Well, considering that there is an insider involved in this matter, if an ordinary clerk were to handle it, it would inevitably alert the enemy. And you are not clerks, and you have already met the water demon, so you can be said to be the 'only' ideal candidates."

Once an inside job is involved, this matter is no longer a simple issue of artifact containment and must be handled with extreme caution. Therefore, I would like to ask you to first go to the containment compartments explicitly mentioned in the letter and discuss the veracity of this statement.

If you can capture any one of the water demons, we can confront them face to face. As for whether that clerk acted on impulse or intentionally, I will make a fair judgment.

At this crucial juncture, let the revitalization plan come to a close in our hands.

Mo Li nodded and said, "Leave this to us. As long as we find the suspect, we'll dig up his household registration information."

"How scary! You're not some kind of hacker hiding your true abilities, are you?" Xingmei asked warily.

“If you give me the equipment and the corresponding technology, I really can’t find out their identity information, but that’s illegal,” Mo Li said.

"Why don't you give it a try?" Xingmei said with great interest.

"I'd rather die than try it. You know my gaming friend (referring to Silver Wolf)? She's a powerful hacker, currently on the wanted list, with a bounty higher than the credits in your savings." Mo Li tried to emphasize the seriousness of the matter.

“Okay, let’s go then,” Xing said.

As Estella watched the two walk away, she said, "Good luck, it's up to you two."

Xing: "Leave it to me."

After looking around and finding no one else, she said, "Mo Li, do you know any interesting hacker secrets?"

"You know what, there really is one."

You know I'm from another world, right?

"Yes, I know that. I'm tired of hearing it from Danheng and Sanyue."

"That's fine. You can think of me as someone from another world, the Azure Star. In our world, everyone has to go to school."

I studied something related to networking. There was a really tough guy in my year who used a program that the teacher gave to students to capture packets for virtual software. He used it to capture packets from the router in the teaching building. You know what a data packet is? That thing, he captured packets on the spot, and law enforcement arrested him on the spot.

Even after I graduated, teachers were still discussing this case.

"Such an uncommon way to go to jail..." Xing complained.

"Indeed, the teacher probably didn't expect someone with such high skills to be so bold. If it weren't for the fact that no major disaster was caused, and with the academy's strong protection, he would only have been detained for a few days."

So we must be careful in our actions. If we do something wrong... be quick-witted and escape back to the train. The train crew will seek justice for you.

If the train crew can't protect you, then I'll have to think about how to break you out of prison.

"Hey, your thoughts are clearly more terrifying," Xingmei retorted again.

"Please, I've already transmigrated, why should I behave properly? Refine the Nine-Turn Incompetent Gu?" Mo Li rolled her eyes at Xing, letting her figure it out herself.

The containment chamber is on the second floor, in the analysis room. If you have any questions, you can usually find clues here.

Upon arriving, they overheard a conversation between two clerks. Mo Li and Xing stood there silently, listening without making a sound.

Male clerk: "Young Master Bo has always been magnanimous. Actually, you have every chance to win back my favor... as long as you're willing to apologize for your previous behavior!"

Female clerk: "I didn't do those things..."

The female clerk covered her head, seemingly very agitated, but unsure how to explain herself.

Male clerk: "Trying to deny the facts?! Lamina, oh Lamina, you're getting more and more creative! Let me help you remember..."

The wasabi in my box, the large hole in my uniform, the shriveled reply to the female clerk—aren't these all your doing?

Lamina: "Although I was indeed the only one who handled those things, but..."

Male clerk: "Not to mention, when I was reporting to Miss Estelle, you suddenly yelled, 'Mr. Capote, if you push me too far, "Woowooboo" is waiting for you to play with it!' This made Miss Estelle think I was having an affair with a rare object and neglecting my duties!"

Lamina: "But that's just repeating a fact..."

Male clerk: "Heaven knows, earth knows, you know, and I know! I've told you this so many times, but you're just deliberately trying to go against me!"

Forget it, I don't see any remorse in you. When you get dizzy and disoriented from staying here, and your future seems bleak, you'll naturally come back to seek "Young Master Bo's" help.

You can just pray that by then I haven't found any Winona, Elena, or Barbara to replace you! Hmph.

The male clerk left like the wind; he was truly a "mad" man.

The female clerk named Lamina began to sob.

Xing glanced at Mo Li, who said, "Why are you looking at me? You're good at this, you go."

"No, no, you're handsome, you should go," Xingmei said honestly.

"You're more honest..."

Mo Li actually went to comfort her.

Xingmei clenched her fist and said, "Nice, I finally know how to handle Mo Li."

Mo Li actually had little experience communicating with girls, so he took a few steps forward, stood in front of her, and said, "Beautiful lady, may I ask what's wrong?"

Lamina looked up, a tear about to fall, but the person in front of her held it back.

Mo Li: (?!)

Lamina: "(This guy is so handsome, is he waving at me? How should I respond...)"

Actually, Mo Li only behaves himself when there's a girl around.

"Ah, it's Mr. Mo Li, one of the nameless heroes of the space station. He is indeed as handsome as the legends say. I've heard so much about you, but I never expected you to greet a nobody like me."

Mo Li: (I've had enough! Who's spreading these rumors?!)

Mo Li sensed the strange energy fluctuations emanating from her.
