Chapter 370 The last fire
Latio and Xing's investigation began, but unlike what they had imagined, their investigation was full of difficulties.

First of all, people inside the space station are very wary of outsiders, especially in such a "dangerous" period as now.

Just by looking at Latio's serious face that "looks so great", most people would know that he is extraordinary and would not dare to approach him.

Therefore, the task of finding clues is usually left to Xing.

Fortunately, she had not forgotten the battle against Doommon with the train crew before. In addition, Xing's spirit of saving money, no, helping others, also made her popular, at least better than Latio, who was unfamiliar with the place.

"I didn't expect it to be useful. At least it's better than I thought."

Latio was observing from the side and thought that Xing was a specialist who was only good at fighting, but he did not expect that he also had such good relationships with others.

"However, there are too many useless communications. If it were me..."

Suddenly, a dark blue figure attracted Latio's attention.

It was a spherical object that changed shape and passed through the wall like a ghost. It failed to attract anyone's attention, but Latio noticed it with his keen observation.

"That is………?"

Looking at Xing who was still communicating, Latio hesitated for a moment, then immediately followed the direction of the dark blue sphere.

His intuition told him that it was not an illusion but something related to the incident.

"Mr. Latiou, I just heard from the staff of the "World Species Department" that, hey, where are the people?"

As soon as Latio left, Xing came back to inquire about the news, but the place where they had agreed to meet was empty again.

"Okay, okay, one or two of you are all playing missing, right? Even if I am alone, I can solve the problem!"

There was a hint of dissatisfaction in the star-gold eyes, but one could still understand that Latio must have found some important information, which was why he left without saying goodbye.

She took out her cell phone and sent the message she had just received from the clerk using a photo of Ji Zi's sister (she owed it first).

"First of all, before every missing officer in the space station experienced a "spontaneous combustion incident", the station's fire protection system was briefly activated. This is the information I learned from Alan in the Defense Department."

That’s right, Xing and his group are not the only ones investigating this matter. Other people with conscience and knowledge are also investigating it secretly.

But the more they investigate, the more likely it is to fuel rumors and fear within the space station, which is why Estelle is reluctant to come forward.

If Ester, the top leader, is running around the station, doesn't that mean the station is doomed?

Therefore, Xing and others can only look for clues secretly, which makes things even more difficult.

But now, in order to meet the conditions of a "spontaneous combustion event", the object must meet at least three conditions:
1. Something that can penetrate walls and cause clerks to change their positions out of thin air.

Second, conceptually, it can trigger the space station's fire-fighting system, which at least falls into the category of "flame."

Third, the officers had no serious intention of resisting and disappeared almost instantly, but so far neither bodies nor any type of residue has been found, so logically speaking, the officers may still be alive.

"Something that can travel through space, maybe something of the flame type, feels very familiar."

Xing stroked her chin and thought. She had been through a lot of adventures and could name at least two similar things.

The first type, although not fire, is a specialty of the space station, the "Woowoober", which is an invisible energy species with the ability to travel across space.

"Probably not?"

Xing immediately rejected it, and then thought of the second possibility.

It was a spiritual fire that left a deep impression on her. She had tasted it many times on the immortal boat Luofu.

Xing's face looked particularly pale, which brought back some bad memories.

"Logically speaking, Sui Yang from the outside world should not be able to invade the space station. Moreover, Sui Yang needs a host to move freely. If there is such a host, it should have been discovered long ago, or at least some traces should have been left behind."

After rejecting two guesses in succession, she couldn't think of any more for the time being, so Xing sent the situation here to Dan Heng, the most diligent and studious person on the train.

Soon, Dan Heng reliably sent the information over.

[Dan Heng: This Afrit is not simple. ]

【Xing: How do you say that? 】

[Dan Heng: Among the fire demons, his flame is also quite special.]

[Xing: Very detailed.] [Dan Heng: I searched for information and found the following eyewitness testimonies in many vicious incidents caused by Yonghuo Mansion:]

[Dan Heng: The thugs descended from the flames. ]

[Danheng: Afrit's flame may have inherited some special abilities related to its origin.]

Then, Dan Heng quoted a lot of information from think tanks, which made Xing suddenly enlightened.

"Phase teleportation... I seem to have heard Black Tower mention something similar. What was it?"

A flash of inspiration came to Xing, and he felt that he had grasped the key to the matter, but the word was on the tip of his tongue and he couldn't say it.

"The flames burn the worlds, leaving behind many descendants of the flames."

This is the information provided by Danheng, and it is also the last piece of the puzzle to complete the case.

"Afrit must have used his special ability of fire to cause this riot. We need to report it to Ester immediately."

Xing's face changed drastically and he quickly ran towards Estelle.

Because, if Afrit's ability is really as she guessed, and he has the ability to manipulate space at will, then the climax of this turmoil will definitely cause a person of importance to disappear, igniting the whole feast.

And now, the person with the highest status in the space, besides Black Tower, is......

At the same time, on the space station's network platform, which was already in a state of panic and fear, a report quietly emerged and spread like locusts to various groups.

[Missing Person Report: All of them are leaders who expressed their opinions on the Black Tower management. ]

[Unlicensed flying of a spacecraft:? ]

【Destroying people tirelessly:? 】

【Hui Ren Yan: What is this? 】

[Flying a spaceship without a license: I smell a conspiracy. ]

【Hui Ren Yan: What conspiracy? This is clearly murder! 】

[Destroying people tirelessly: directing and acting by themselves, then excluding dissidents, tsk tsk tsk, the same old trick, management should step down! ]

[Flying a spaceship without a license: Management must step down! ]

...............

Esta's eyes were fixed on the angry clerks on the screen. This was only a part of the content at the moment, and there were many more intense remarks.

With her fingers tightly clasped on her palms, Ester couldn't understand. She had clearly tried her best to block the spread of information, so who allowed things to develop to such an irreversible point?
Heavy footsteps were heard from a distance, and when Estelle looked closely, she saw that it was Xing.

"finally………"

Estella's expression relaxed a little. The appearance of Xing meant that things were about to take a turn for the better, or at least there would be some intelligence.

However, from a distance, Xing’s face did not look good, and his mouth opened and closed, as if he was saying something.

"Esther, run!"

Esther's pupils trembled, and she suddenly felt her body was very cold. She looked down and saw that a blue flame had already covered her entire body.

"what!!!"

Fear, astonishment, Esta had many emotions ready to burst out at this moment, but before she could vent them, her figure suddenly disappeared without leaving a trace in space.

"Esta!"

The moment the pink figure disappeared, Xing had just arrived here. She came back as soon as possible, but the scene just now still happened in front of her.

Xing's hand, which was stretched out in the air, had not yet fallen, but there was nothing in front of him and he could not touch anything.

If the disappearance of the Black Tower was the first spark that ignited the space station, then the disappearance of Ester was what brought the incident to a climax...

The last fire.
