Chapter 649: A Chance Encounter in a Small Building
After separating from Cheedo and Duke Habs, Leo did not immediately set off for the ruins of the Ministry of Supervision, which he was in charge of, but went to a small building next to the main building of the Inquisition.
The location of this small building is quite interesting, if you stand at the gate of the court and look in its direction, it happens to be completely obscured by the main building of the court, and if you don't look around this side, you don't even know that there is such a small building in the courtroom.
This simple, two-story building is where the Inquisition houses all the information and information.
There were no guards in the small building, and even the door on the first floor was completely open, and even from the outside of the building, Leo could see through this door the bookshelves in the hall on the first floor full of materials.
This incident once made Leo feel very surprised, and therefore specially asked Cheetos, the owner of the Inquisition: "Lord Cheeto, don't you think that the guard power of our Inquisition, which is used to store information, is really too weak?" ”
Leo actually said this lightly, after all, this small building does not have any guards at all.
Cheedo gave Leo a smile that was unfathomable (in Leo's opinion, obviously deliberately pretended): "Lord Leo, this small building doesn't need guards, and the reputation of our Inquisition is the best guard." ”
Leo could understand the meaning of Cheeto's words, to put it bluntly, the place of the Inquisition was notorious, and even the people who taught themselves had to be called several times trembling, and ordinary people even passed by the gate of the Inquisition and walked briskly for fear of being noticed by the people here, not to mention who would have the courage to pass through the gate of the Inquisition and the aisle a few hundred meters behind the gate, and then have to go around the main building of the Inquisition to reach this small building.
But Leo still felt that Cheeto's statement was quite nonsense, because those who really wanted to steal some intelligence from the Inquisition could not be ordinary people at all, and for such people, the small building was no different from being undefended.
But strictly speaking, Leo doesn't have any decision-making power in this matter, so it doesn't matter, he can't manage it anyway.
There are no cubicles on the first floor of the small building, it is a hall with many bookshelves, Leo has just walked into this hall, the unique smell of many books mixed in the air fills his nose, it is reasonable to say that this smell should have a faint fragrance, but Leo can't help but frown when he smells it, because he smells dust inside.
It had apparently not been cleaned in a while, and there was a faint layer of dust on both the bookshelves and the floor.
"Huh?" At this moment, Leo's eyes suddenly converged on the ground, because he suddenly noticed that in addition to his own footprints, there was another pair of footprints on the ground that were slightly smaller.
"Anyone has been here? No, the footprints are quite clear, and this person is likely to have just arrived, maybe he hasn't left yet! ”
Leo followed the footprints on the ground with some vigilance through several bookshelves, and then saw an unexpected person in front of one of the bookshelves in the hall.
"Bella?" The surprise on Leo's face was evident: "Why are you here?" ”
The one who is holding a book in front of the bookshelf and reading it carefully is, of course, Bela.
Bella raised her head when she heard the sound, and was stunned for a moment when she saw Leo, and then immediately showed a smile on her face: "Why are you here too, didn't you go out to find Duke Habs?" ”
Looking at the smile of the beautiful girl in front of him, Leo's originally tense mood because of Viscount Juan and the entropy demon suddenly improved a lot, and a smile appeared on his face, and he kissed the girl lightly on the cheek, and said, "I've already met him, I'm here mainly to see if I can find some helpful information, what are you looking at?" ”
Bella shook the book, or note, at Leo and smiled, "I'm reading information about our Kingdom of France. ”
Leo took a closer look, and sure enough, he found that the cover of the note had a few words written on it, "Summary of Information from the Kingdom of France (During the Reign of Bonaparte I)", from the literal meaning, this is obviously a material note about the reign of Bonaparte I, the founding monarch of France, to Leo's surprise, although this note has gone through hundreds of years, the whole note is actually intact and well preserved except for looking a little worn.
Leo suddenly became interested: "What is written on it?" ”
Bella smiled: "Actually, I haven't finished reading it, but from the part I've already read, it's basically consistent with the history recorded by our Français royal family itself." Of course, there are also differences, for example, there were several major events that happened at that time, and I only learned today that they were actually related to the court. ”
"And that kind of thing?" Leo curiously glanced at the note in Bela's hand, and happened to see the words at the beginning of the chapter, "Cat Demon for Prince".
"Cat demon for prince?" Now Leo was even more curious: "What is this story?" ”
Bella glanced at Leo, "You don't know this story?" ”
"Of course I don't know this story, let's talk about it."
It was through Bella's narration that Leo learned the secrets of a Français kingdom for many years.
It turned out that Bonaparte I, the founding monarch of the Kingdom of France, was nearly fifty years old when he ascended the throne, and due to years of wars and several accidents, not only did not have any heirs alive, but even the queen had died.
Seeing that this great country was about to lose its inheritance, Bonaparte I could be said to be anxious, searching for things like "Convex Male Bo Pill" and "One Shot into the Soul Pill" every day, and every night he worked hard to drag his old body to work fancy on the body of several ladies in the palace, in order to give birth to an heir.
After a few years, the good news finally appeared, and the two ladies were pregnant almost at the same time, much to the delight of Bonaparte I.
But this also brings a problem, that according to the principle of succession proclaimed by Bonaparte I, as long as the first child is born, whether it is a boy or a girl, it will become the next king of the Kingdom of France, and the lady who gave birth to the eldest son will naturally become the new queen of the Kingdom of France.
In this context, the open and secret struggle between the two ladies and the wives behind the family can be imagined. In short, both of them survived until the day of production anyway, and what is even more surprising is that the two ladies actually gave birth together on the same night.
Something surprising happened, although the first lady gave birth to a child successfully, but this "child" is actually not a human, but a kitten!
The news shocked the whole kingdom of France, and the kitten was burned to death as an ominous object called the "cat demon", and the lady who gave birth to the kitten also went insane and committed suicide soon after.
Then another lady gave birth successfully, and this mother and son became the queen and prince as a matter of course.
Hearing this, Leo couldn't help but interject: "This seems to be a very normal story, what's so magical?" ”
Bella smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I haven't said the key point yet." ”
