"Leonardo, it's enough. ”

"Everything revolves around the secret that the Nicholas School has guarded for generations, and now this secret is in this silver box, Leonardo will not let this box out of his sight, so can we let him go and have a cup of afternoon tea together?"

Caitlin hesitantly questioned Chiko and Eric, and in the end, they all chose to believe the once powerful Mrs. Hudson in front of them. So the three of them followed Mrs. Hudson down the dark ancient stone staircase. After zigzag open a few secret doors, Mrs. Hudson led them to a quaint private room.

Eric unceremoniously lay down on the fluffy couch and asked with a smile, "This is the office of the Nicholas School?"

Mrs. Hudson poured a cup of black tea for each of them and said indifferently, "Yes, this place used to be no less pompous than the Freemasons and the Knights Templar, but now it has withered. Saying that, the woman who was once known as the Iron Lady like Margaret Thatcher couldn't help but show a trace of sadness.

While staring at the black tea in the cup, Qianzi reminded without worry: "I'm afraid we won't be able to stay for long, and we don't know if we're safe now." ”

"The Bacchus Underground Tunnel is 200 miles long, and even if you find the entrance to this tunnel, you have to go through 25 intersections to find it, and each intersection has about three or four directions to choose from. Mrs. Hudson smiled indifferently.

Hearing Mrs. Hudson's explanation, and thinking that without Eric's leadership, they would probably still be stumbling around in the tunnel like headless flies, which made Chiko feel both happy and a little afraid.

If Eric was in the Church of Our Lady 2 years ago, how did he know the way here?

At this time, Caitlin, who had been silent for a long time, spoke: "Mrs. Hudson, I think you should know who Leonardo is, and you should also know that neither the parliament nor the people of country E want to see that you are one of the great figures of the occult school. You know, while the Nicholas School has always been a legend, there are a lot of rumors about it. ”

"First of all, I know what Leonardo is, so I will do my best to help him, and secondly, I am not interested in knowing what the rumors of the Nicholas School say, but I know that it is just a purely knowledge-advocating organization, and there is no malice or coercion towards the world. If you ask me why I'm so sure, I can tell you, because I'm the current consul of the Nicholas school, that is, the one in power. Mrs. Hudson faintly shows the hardness of the "Iron Lady".

Hearing Mrs. Hudson's reply, Caitlyn suddenly became overwhelmed. Mrs. Hudson's words just now were undoubtedly a shocking secret, and the instincts of her secret service told her that behind and in front of every shocking secret were many dangers, even at the cost of her life.

Mrs. Hudson indifferently picked up the teacup and took a sip of black tea, in her eyes, although Caitlyn was very capable and could be said to be an excellent talent, but in front of her, she still lacked some wisdom and experience in dealing with the world.

Eric suddenly put the suitcase on the table, pointed at it, and said, "My interest is relatively simple, what is this?"

The silver suitcase was bathed in golden light, as if to confirm Mrs. Hudson's claim that it contained the secret of the Nicholas School, which had been passed down for generations, but what was this secret?

"Is it really a key to turning stones into gold?" Chiko squirmed nervously.

Mrs. Hudson caressed the silver suitcase lovingly. Rather than rush to answer Eric's question, she asked, "Do you believe in turning stones into gold?"

Eric pouted and smiled: "I didn't believe it originally, but now that I have witnessed the existence of the Nicholas School, I think the so-called turning stones into gold should be a metaphor leading to a mystery, that is, a core clue." ”

Mrs. Hudson nodded approvingly: "Yes, unlike the Freemasons and the Knights Templar, the Nicholas School believed in the power of God and Jesus, while we believe only in knowledge and science. Our members are all well-known and well-known scholars in their fields. Just as Leonardo was a pioneer in the field of neurology, Ruth you see has an amazing talent for chemistry. Therefore, we do not believe in the existence of turning stones into gold. When it comes to Ruth, Leonardo can't hide his sadness.

Chiko asked, "What's that?" However, at this time, the wonder of both Chiko and Caitlyn as to why the contents of the silver suitcase had caused such a wide range of controversy had long since replaced curiosity about Nicholas' secret itself.

Mrs. Hudson was in no hurry to open the mysterious silver suitcase. She walked up to the bust of Nicholas Flamel and took out a key and inserted it into the keyhole on the statue's base. After opening it, everyone realized that the base of the statue turned out to be a flat safe. After pressing the code, Mrs. Hudson pulled out a yellowed parchment from it.

"It all started with the Book of Abraham the Jew. Mrs. Hudson lovingly stroked the cover of the parchment, "It is recorded that it was from this Book of Jewish Abraham that Nicholas Flamel discovered the proportions and methods of mercury deduction of redstone, and finally created the Philosopher's Stone." ”

Mrs. Hudson's explanation came to an abrupt end, and she handed the parchment to Eric. Eric flipped through the yellowed pages, glanced at them a few times, and handed the book to Caitlyn. Caitlin also flipped through a few pages, frowned, and handed it to Chiko.

Chiko flipped through a few pages, and found that the book was full of words and symbols that he had never seen before, so he carefully returned the book to Mrs. Hudson, and asked, "What kind of script is this? It doesn't seem to be the language of any country, is it an ancient script?"

Mrs. Hudson explains: "This is not the original manuscript of the Jewish Book of Abraham, but a manuscript of Nicholas, and he himself liked to record it in the form of codes, so these words are alchemical codes established by Nicholas." ”

At this time, Leonardo was very dissatisfied with Mrs. Hudson's "extraordinary", and he said unhappily: "You shouldn't tell them this, they already know enough!"

Mrs. Hudson did not resist Leonardo's rebuke, she remained calm and gentle, and there was no sign that she was once an iron lady who could argue with the prime minister in parliament. Mrs. Hudson said, "They have found you, they have found here, and they know the connection between Dora Reagent and this secret, Leonardo, we need to face up to the crisis in front of us, it is no longer possible for the Nicholas School to sit here and chat and drink tea as before." You should also know that unlike the Freemasons, we have the secret of knowledge and science that can actually turn fate upside down. In the past two years, the power of the Nicholas school has been exhausted, and the best option at the moment is only ....... ”
