Act 299. Eccentric girl

The Midland Federation has long pursued a strategy of putting knowledge first, and libraries are the standard in every city, and the Olmsted City Library is no exception, and this five-story building is located in the heart of the city.

Reiner and Claire walked into the library, registered their names and entered the library, where there were not only all kinds of literature and history books, but also some basic magic textbooks, local newspapers over the years, and some public information about the city.

Claire was still looking up at the towering bookshelves, and Reiner had already followed the map and led her to the city's information area.

"What can I find here?"

Claire asked, tilting her head, as she saw Reiner find several atlases and open them to see that they were urban plans.

The city of Olmsted has a history of two hundred years, and the city plan is naturally well documented, Reiner first found the urban plan of about a hundred years ago, when the rich district was just being established, and he quickly found the area where Aunt Selia's villa was located, a hundred years ago, there were no villas like today.

Flipping down, Reiner found that the villa had been built seventy years ago, and had been renovated about twenty years ago, when Aunt Celia moved in, and that according to the laws of the Midland Federation, the design of any building renovation and renovation must conform to the specifications, so the design plans for the renovation have also been recorded in the city documents.

Finding the renovation blueprints of the building, Reiner took a closer look.

Although the design of this villa has highlights, there is nothing special about it, it belongs to a normal building, at least there is no secret room or secret passage on the surface, and its architectural shape has no profound meaning.

Reiner thought for a moment, and looked at the backyard of the villa, where Phyllis had been, and found that under the ground floor was a basement for storing things, but the contents of the contents must have been carefully investigated by the servants a long time ago, and nothing else would be found.

Wait until tomorrow to go to the mansion again, and use magic to test it, if you still don't find it, then maybe the so-called secret is really not in this mansion.

Reiner is really not very interested in the position of the family heir, if this is a world without any supernatural powers, then crazy money may still be able to arouse Reiner's attention, but there is magic here, there are many half-dimensional transcendent worlds, Reiner naturally put all his energy on learning magic.

But Reiner was also a little curious about Aunt Celia's secret, but he set a bottom line for himself, that is, to crack it within the scheduled three days, and if there was no clue within three days, then he would ignore it and leave directly.

Accustomed to the strife between mages, the internal competition within this mundane family is now a little new.

He believed that Raven and Phyllis should already have some clues, but that didn't matter.

Reiner left Claire where she was, picked up the city planning materials and returned them, only to see a girl with pale blonde curly hair standing in front of the bookshelf, looking at the vacant position, tilting her head slightly, and looking quite confused.

Part of her long pale blonde hair was tied in a short ponytail at the back of her head, she was wearing a blue blouse, a long white dress, and a pair of riding boots stood out, and the woman was wearing white gloves, and it could be seen that on the white collar on her chest, there was a brilliant sapphire.

The girl was no more than a teenager, with a delicate appearance, but lacking the liveliness that should be present at the age of her age, and there was a sense of indifference on her indifferent face that rejected people from thousands of miles away, more like an extremely delicate doll than a human being.

The woman didn't notice Reiner's approach, and it wasn't until Reiner put the album back on the shelf that she nodded in realization, and then took the album that Reiner had just returned from the shelf.

"Confirm, urban planning and design drawings."

She whispered, softly, but not past Reiner's ears, who thought the other man was speaking in a strange way, but didn't ask too much.

"Start browsing."

The girl just stood there and opened the atlas.

Out of curiosity, Reiner didn't leave, but just stood aside and watched the other man's actions.

I saw that the girl turned the page very fast, and her head swayed with it, as if she was browsing, but the time was so short that Reiner felt that even if she was a person who read fast, she couldn't finish reading it, not to mention that this was a design drawing, and there were many details, which could not be read at this speed at all.

At this rate, the girl quickly read the two books that Reiner had flipped through earlier, and it took less than three minutes for her to put the planning and design book back before she noticed Reiner watching from the sidelines.

"Discovery, strange fellow."

The girl said, her voice equally flat.

"Doesn't that seem rude to say that......"

Reiner is embarrassed, it should be said that this person is informal or ignorant of personnel, her words and deeds reveal a feeling of ignoring the people around her.

"Correction, strange but ordinary fellow."

“......”

Reiner broke out in a few cold sweats, and communication with the girl seemed to be difficult, and he waved his hand and was about to leave.

"Add information, Reiner. Ian Gray is a strange guy. ”

Hearing the girl's words, Reiner stopped.

"How do you know my name?"

He doesn't have anything on him that can tell who he is at a glance, and he can call his name, unless he already knows what he looks like in advance.

"Definitely, Reiner. Ian Grey is quite a well-known figure. ”

The girl replied, her choice of words and sentences was awkward, and she felt like someone who had just learned to speak.

"Have you seen my picture before......"

Reiner touched his chin, his picture could indeed be seen in many places, and there were people from the Ian Gray family in the city, and it was barely reasonable for the girl to recognize herself.

He nodded as if he didn't care, and then walked away.

The girl tilted her head, a little confused by Reiner's performance, but soon returned to her original state of indifference.

She turned to leave, and soon walked out of the library.

On the other side, Reiner took out a piece of paper from his pocket with several small black dots on it, and it could be seen that there was a single red dot between them.

This is tracking magic that is able to track the person carrying the target item within a certain range.

And just now, in the middle of the exchange, Reiner had already put an ordinary-looking copper coin into the girl's pocket.

He pretended not to care, but in fact, he had developed a huge suspicion of the girl.

Reiner prepares to stalk the other party.
