Chapter 454 Man-Made Accident

Chen Ke wanted to talk to Jacob and Jack alone, so he looked at Nightingale. Nightingale understood what he meant, walked out of the room gently, and closed the door.

He came to Jacob, looked at little Jack beside him, squatted down and asked: "Can I trust you?"

Little Jack nodded, with panic and helplessness in his eyes.

"Jacob's eyes will be fine, but during this period, the other children need your care." Chen Ke said.

"I don't know if I can do it..." Little Jack shook his head.

"Chen Ke, things are not as bad as you think. I have experienced everything. This little situation is not enough." Jacob said.

Chen Ke took out his wallet from his pocket, took out all the paper bills and pounds, and stuffed them into little Jack's hands.

Little Jack looked at the huge amount of money in his hand in surprise and took a deep breath. He had never seen so much money.

"You want to give all this to me?" Little Jack looked at Chen Ke, his voice trembling.

"This is not for you...Ms. Nightingale will arrange everything. This money is enough to treat Jacob's eyes." Chen Ke said.

"You don't need to do this... I didn't help you." Jacob reached out and groped to grab Chen Ke's wrist.

"I don't need this money. You know where I come from. I won't stay for long." Chen Ke said.

Jacob didn't speak. He had his own answer in his heart.

"You helped me find the clues of these diamonds, and those children need your eyes, and the streets of Langdon also need you to watch." Chen Ke said.

Little Jack didn't understand this, but he understood Chen Ke's next plan.

"Are you going to leave?" Little Jack asked.

"I can't leave for the time being... But I'm getting into the state. Jacob, you know William, right?" Chen Ke asked.

"The dean of Langdon College, I met him below the college... Those things are all led by him." Jacob said.

"Well, William, I know. Baron Mox and Sir Howard, they are also related to William." Chen Ke stood up.

The mysterious blood used by the two knights all came from this William. There is no doubt that this blood has a power similar to psychic energy, and it is definitely not just human blood.

"I want to find him. Do you think he is still under the academy?" Chen Ke asked.

"I don't think so. After you left, there was an explosion down there... Do you remember what Sean said? The orphanage." Jacob said.

"The orphanage... It has something to do with the missing children." Chen Ke remembered.

"The director of the orphanage has a close relationship with William. Think about it, Chen Ke, the children who were injected with blood under the academy..." Jacob was a little excited.

Chen Ke certainly didn't remember, but he still hummed. He thought for a while and said to Jacob: "I will go to the orphanage to have a look."

"Do you need our help?" Little Jack looked up.

"No, it will be very dangerous. The farther you are away, the better." Chen Ke shook his head.

"Listen to Chen Ke, little Jack. Those strange things... We can't deal with them." Jacob said. He had already experienced the power of psychic monsters. He was blinded without even a face-to-face encounter.

Chen Ke nodded to little Jack, then pushed the door out, and Nightingale was standing at the door.

"Ms. Nightingale, I hope the doctor...can come soon." Chen Ke said.

"Don't worry, I have sent someone to find him in a carriage. Mr. Jacob will get better." Nightingale nodded.

"Then I'll take my leave first." Chen Ke bowed slightly and then left the hospital.

Chen Ke walked onto the street, and Angele's Elegy returned to his hand. Now he felt very stable. With this set of armor, Angele's Ashes could finally be released unscrupulously.

At the same time, there was a revolver, and with the God Blood Bullet and Florence suit, the long-range output suit was also complete.

There were still a few blasphemous daggers and moonlights left. Where were they? Chen Ke decided to go to the foundation's cafe first to ask if there was any useful information.

A water jug ​​carriage rushed past. The fire at Howard's mansion should not be extinguished so quickly. In the 19th century, this kind of fire could definitely be regarded as the "fire of the century", enough for the Langdon Daily to write about it.

But the direction of the water jug ​​carriage was running in the opposite direction of Howard's mansion. Could it be that there was a fire somewhere else?

It's not particularly difficult to understand. After all, steam engines rely on burning coal to generate power, and every household now burns firewood. It's not surprising to encounter a few fires.

"Sir, hey, I want to take a carriage." Chen Ke stopped an empty carriage on the street.

"Where are you going, sir?" the driver asked.

"The Mingsiqiaobian Cafe." Chen Ke said.

"Come on." The driver said.

Chen Ke opened the door and sat in the compartment. The driver pulled the reins and drove the carriage towards the cafe.

After about half an hour, Chen Ke heard the driver sigh, and then suddenly stopped the carriage to the side of the road.

"What's going on?" Chen Ke knocked on the window.

"Sorry, sir, the cafe you want to go to... is on fire." The driver jumped off the seat and opened the door.

Chen Ke got out of the car and saw two water jug ​​carriages parked on the side of the road across the street. Firefighters were carrying buckets and running into a two-story mobile building. The entire building was dark from the fire.

The cafe was surrounded by a crowd. No matter what era it was, there would always be a crowd of people watching when something happened.

There were still flames coming out of the second floor of the flying tube. The people from the security station also came to help maintain order, blowing whistles to isolate the crowd at a relatively safe distance. A row of stretchers were placed on the street, and the people lying on them were covered with white cloth. It was obvious that they had been burned to death.

"It's a pity, isn't it? 20 pence, sir." The driver said.

Chen Ke took out a handful of coins, picked a few from it and handed them to the driver, then ran towards the cafe.

This is the secret base of the foundation. Although the contact person inside is not a person who transcends time, but a local of this era, Chen Ke still doesn't think this is just a simple accident.

Chen Ke squeezed into the crowd and squeezed a little inside, and finally found a closer distance.

"It is said that the boiler caught fire. Wasn't there anyone watching them when they boiled water?" Chen Ke heard the firefighters who were responsible for guarding the water tank carriage talking to each other.

What nonsense... Chen Ke shook his head. The room behind the cafe stored guns and equipment. Most of them should have been burned to charcoal. Didn't the ammunition explode?

"There's nothing to see here. Citizens, please step back and pay attention to your personal safety." The sheriff shouted.

Chen Ke sighed and squeezed out of the crowd. This fire was definitely not an accident, but someone was cleaning up the foundation's base.

"There are no other clues now... Damn it, I can only go to the orphanage." Chen Ke said secretly, put his hands in his coat pockets, and left here quickly.
