Chapter 917: Recent Clue

Whistling!

“Ah!!” Johnny roared with changing emotions, his exposed skin had been completely burned by the hellfire, leaving behind a ghastly skeleton as clean as a specimen.

After completing the transformation in pain, Johnny, who had become Ghost Rider, turned and walked towards the gate of the factory with his skull in flames. Outside the gate, Blackheart was standing at the junction clapping his hands.

“You! Back to hell!” Ghost Rider raised his bony hand and pointed at Blackheart as he spoke. (After the transformation, I will call him Ghost Rider and Johnny before the transformation, if he can control the transformation freely then I will call him Johnny.)

“We’re not gonna have a meaningful conversation now, are we?” Blackheart spoke with an amused expression on his face.

“You’re going down.” Ghost Rider spoke as he put his hand down.

“I don’t think so!” Blackheart replied disdainfully to Ghost Rider’s angry shout.

Hoo!

The next moment, a strong wind suddenly rushes at Ghost Rider from the front, directly lifting him to the chain in the factory building. The flame goes out as the Wind Demon acts.

“Hehe…” Just when Blackheart thought that Ghost Rider had gone down, the flame on Ghost Rider’s body instantly continued to ignite.

Boom!

Pulling off the chain wrapped around his neck, Ghost Rider landed again, and then continued to stride toward Blackheart. However, Ghost Rider just stepped out of the factory and stepped on a small puddle, and his whole foot was pulled by the water and he could not move. The Water Demon had made his move.

Bang!

While Ghost Rider is temporarily held in check by the Water Demon, a large truck crashes directly from the side, sending Ghost Rider, who cannot move at this time, into the wall.

…

Brush!

“Bucky, how far have we chased?” Lin Rui asked as he looked at the road with a tired expression on his face.

“More than eighty kilometers.” Bucky is still in good spirits as driving this distance hardly consumes anything from him.

“So far?!” Hearing Bucky’s answer, Lin Rui was also a little surprised as he didn’t expect them to run so far after chasing the flame.

“Well, there is a small town ahead, maybe the fire-like thing stopped there.”

“I hope, if not then I don’t have much interest in chasing after him.” Hearing Bucky’s guess, Lin Rui replied in a low mood.

Originally, Lin Rui was very interested in Johnny and that weird man in the Windbreaker, but if they never had a chance to meet them then Lin Rui wouldn’t stay here forever. Anyway, he and Bucky were just passing by and he can just treat it as an unexpected episode on the way.

In this way, just as Lin Rui lost interest because he never caught up with the magical fire, they finally drove the old jeep into the small town after leaving Rochester. Following the scorched black mark left by the fire, Lin Rui and Rocky came to the outside of a factory building where the lights were still on.

“The mark seems to go in here, then come out and turn a corner and leave again.”   Stopping on the road outside the factory building, Lin Rui stretched out his head and looked at the ground outside, and said.

Ka~

Then, Lin Rui opened the door and got down. If the fire went in here, turned around, and came out, then something must have happened. However, Lin Rui went into the factory to take a look and found nothing.

“There’s nothing strange in here.” Lin Rui shouted while walking outside.

“There is a situation here.” Just as Lin Rui walked out, Bucky’s voice came from outside.

Hearing Bucky’s voice, Lin Rui’s pace quickened a lot. After leaving the factory gate, Lin Rui did not immediately see Bucky but followed his voice to find him. After seeing Bucky’s situation, Lin Rui’s eyes also widened slightly.

“Accident?” Walking to Bucky’s side, Lin Rui looked at the big truck that had crashed into the wall in front of him and asked with some uncertainty in his voice.

“I’m not sure. The road conditions here don’t seem to warrant such an accident.” Bucky responded with a shake of his head at Lin Rui’s words.

“I think so too. Let’s look at other places, and let’s leave. We don’t seem to be suited for this kind of thing.

“Um.”

Then, Lin Rui and Bucky took a stroll around the factory building. However, this simple stroll really made Lin Rui and Bucky discover something very wrong. At a place not far from the factory building, lay a body that had died a strange and tragic death. Even with Bucky’s experience, he couldn’t tell how the corpse on the ground had died.

“It seems that things are getting weirder and weirder!” Standing next to the seemingly cursed corpse, Lin Rui spoke with a spooked expression on his face.

“Are we going to follow? Looking at the direction of the mark. It looks like that thing is going that way. “Although Bucky was uncomfortable, he was better at hiding his feelings than Lin Rui.

“Er… Let’s go. We’re at this point. If there’s something evil out there hurting innocent people, I’d love to find it and put an end to it.” Hearing Bucky’s words, Lin Rui replied with hesitation.

Although the current Lin Rui has lost his previous memory, but he is still the Knight who wants to protect everything.

“Well, I hope your decision is correct this time.” Seemingly not much surprised by Lin Rui’s decision, Bucky has already lifted his feet and walked towards the jeep.

Then, Bucky continued to drive out of the town following the charred mark that turned the corner. The sky had already lighted up as they kept tracking like this. 

At this time, Bucky and Lin Rui didn’t know where they were, anyway, they had already filled up the gas at the side of the road, otherwise, the old jeep that guzzled gas wouldn’t be able to last this long.

And after dawn, Bucky and Lin Rui drove a certain distance and stopped again. Because the scorched black mark disappeared out of thin air here. Parking the Jeep on the side of the road, Lin Rui got out of the Jeep with Bucky to check.

“It really disappeared. How could that thing just disappear out of thin air?” Lin Rui frowned and muttered after touching the ground twice where the scorched black mark had disappeared.

“Maybe it didn’t disappear, but just left in another way.” As Lin Rui muttered, Bucky, who also squatted down beside him to check, said.

“Huh? Bucky, what did you find?” Hearing Bucky’s words, Lin Rui asked with a curious expression on his face.

“Look here.” When Lin Rui came closer, Bucky pointed to the place where the scorched black mark had disappeared.

“Do you see anything?” Bucky continued to ask as Lin Rui looked along the position of his fingers.

“It seems… This is a tire mark?!” Under Bucky’s reminder, Lin Rui finally found out what the final pattern of the scorched black mark from deep to light looked like.

“That’s right, and it’s a tire track from a Bike. So, what we’ve been tracking may be a Bike that’s on fire.”

Lin Rui: “…”
