The first one to pick this cotton ball was one of our A-San brother's warriors.
Dubbed Bearded Bro.
Because he sported two very iconic large curved mustaches right under his nose, a classic A-San style.
He had acquired his train ticket in the same way as Jiang Xiao Yi, through underhand means—killing a young man and swiping the bald man's ticket.
This was also the method many Chosen Ones employed.
After all, the way one got hold of a ticket stub was far too conspicuous.
A 500-gold ticket stub was simply beyond their means.
But that's just the nature of Kaidan, the more impossible the task seems, the simpler the method to complete it turns out to be.
However, they were fundamentally different from Jiang Xiao.
That's because after Jiang Xiao swiped the young man's ticket, he could sit in his own seat, easy and fearless, without worrying about retribution.
But not the other Chosen Ones.
Wouldn't staying put simply be waiting for death?
