Chapter 384 - 384: The Turn of Events
Luna did not answer Snow's question, the other party was unaware that Flower Falls City was facing an unimaginable crisis.
According to the information from her father Nathaniel, the organization known as "[Constellation]" was planning to launch a massive operation in Flower Falls City, and the entire city was likely to be engulfed in panic.
Such matters could only be addressed by high-ranking Beast Masters, after all, the "[Constellation]" organization might very well have an eighth-level Beast Master already in Flower Falls City.
"How did Charles manage to discover this? I saw those people on the train with my own eyes, I just felt a bit uneasy and strange, yet Charles figured out exactly what they were transporting." Luna pondered to herself.
She was very curious about how Charles managed to do it, could it be that he was on that train car as well?
There was no time to think further, so Luna turned to Snow and said, "We need to hurry."
Although Snow didn't know what was happening, she noticed the serious expression on her sister Luna's face. She simply nodded and quickly packed up before following Luna out of the hotel room.
When the two arrived at the hotel lobby, Snow looked around at the bustling crowd, constantly
Charles took a deep breath, nodded, and directly hailed the nearest taxi with Luna and Snow.
"Driver, take us to Flower Falls City train station." Charles said as he got in the car.
The taxi driver looked a bit confused and mumbled, "Are you leaving Flower Falls City? What a shame, the annual beautiful scenery is about to start. If you miss it, you'll have to wait until next year."
Charles didn't respond, he was busy texting Luna everything he knew.
Snow sat in the back, watching the messages on Luna's phone. Her initially curious expression gradually faded, replaced by disbelief and fear that was overshadowed by shock.
"How can this be? If everything is true, and so many people are going to Flower Falls Gorge, then..." Snow's words trailed off. As the daughter of Prince Avery of Genosha, she had some understanding of the [Constellation] organization.
"What? What are you talking about?" the taxi driver asked, curious.
While looking at the messages on his phone, Charles replied, "It's nothing, driver. We're not going to the station anymore, take the highway out of Flower Falls City."
The confusion on the taxi driver's face deepened, but seeing Charles' silence, he wisely refrained from asking more questions.
Snow asked, "Aren't we supposed to leave from the train station?"
Charles replied helplessly, "The tickets are sold out. The information shows there's an issue with the tracks, and they're under repair. Normal service won't resume until tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, Luna and Snow exchanged glances and fell silent.
At that moment, an uneasy feeling crept into their hearts.
"Driver, don't you have a taxi group chat? Could you check if the roads out of Flower Falls City are open?" Charles asked the taxi driver beside him.
The taxi driver immediately responded, "Of course, they are. The highway out of Flower Falls City is very wide, even if there's an accident, it won't cause any major issues."
"Please check for me." Charles said without providing further explanation.
The taxi driver glanced at Charles, then, while waiting at a red light, opened the group chat and took a look.
Suddenly, he turned to stare at Charles, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"The group chat says there was a hazardous chemical spill on several roads in Flower Falls City, and those roads have been temporarily closed for cleanup." The taxi driver was wide-eyed, his mind racing with one thought: how did Charles know this?
"Sure enough, it's come to this. Other roads will probably experience similar issues." Charles thought to himself.
He realized that the [Constellation] organization was taking action to prevent people from leaving Flower Falls City.
In such a short time, they had completely sealed off the city. How long had the [Constellation] organization been operating in Flower Falls City to achieve this?
"It's strange how many accidents have occurred today. If you ask me, since we can't leave anyway, we might as well head to Flower Falls Gorge and enjoy the beautiful scenery. We can leave tomorrow." the taxi driver suggested.
He thought the day's events were just coincidences and that everything would be fine by tomorrow.
"Driver, please take us to this location." Charles said after thinking for a moment, changing the destination to near Wesley's blacksmith shop.
Twenty minutes later, Charles, along with Luna and Snow, got out of the car and slowly walked into the dimly lit alley.
"Charles, what are we doing here?" Snow asked, shrinking a bit in fear next to Luna as she looked at the damp, garbage-strewn road.
"Charles? That name sounds like a hero from Genosha, but unfortunately, he's much more handsome than you." the taxi driver said instinctively from behind.
Charles glanced at Snow, who immediately covered her mouth with her hand.
Then she turned to the taxi driver and asked helplessly, "Mister, why are you following us?"
The taxi driver scratched his nose, looking a bit embarrassed, and slowly said, "What you were saying in the car gave me a bad feeling. Is something big about to happen?"
Charles turned back to look at the taxi driver, then said to Snow, "It's fine, let him follow us. We might need his help later."
Upon hearing this, Luna and Snow instinctively exchanged glances with Charles.
In the face of this situation, did Charles have a way to solve the problem?
