Brill Rose!

"Brill Rose?"

"Who is this?"

In the middle of the car that changed to a car for women and a car for men, Baker, who was sitting in the passenger seat, listened to the name, looked at Richard Casor who was driving, and said, "Your lover?" ”

"What's mine?"

Richard coughed sharply, glanced at the switchie-talkie, and hurriedly explained: "This Brill Rose should be the childhood sweetheart of my two uncles." ”

"Two?"

Baker thought for a moment: "Clive Rogers and Steve Rogers?" ”

Richard nodded: "I don't know if it's true or not, anyway, Martha said that when I was young, the people of the Steve family settled in New Jersey, which is the Steve Manor we are going to next." ”

Baker raised an eyebrow: "Interesting. ”

Richard shrugged: "This is Rogers' family secret, after Steve Rogers disappeared, several older people decided to block the news. ”

"Understandable," Baker said. ”

Captain Steve Rogers disappeared to save the world, and just as many painters' paintings only appreciate in value after death, Steve Rogers is no exception.

At that time, the public's attention fell on Peggy Carter, Steve Rogers' unofficial widow, and it was with the help of this public that Peggy Carter was able to break through the discrimination of the times and become one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D.

And for so many years, Peggy Carter has also been very fond of the Rogers family.

The Rogers family made such a decision, people only need to know that Captain America Steve Rogers' lover is Peggy Carter, and the rest does not need to know, even if it is just a childhood sweetheart.

The relationship history of the American team must be simple and clean.

So......

This Brill Rose was selectively forgotten by the Rogers family, who took advantage of Captain America's popularity to turn to politics.

Pity.

The Rogers family can obviously become a political family.

But I don't know what's going on, since time has plateaued after World War II, the direct males of the Rogers family have died one after another as if they had been cursed by some terrible curse, and at present, the only one who can be related to Rogers is the current Richard Casor family.

Richard smiled and said, "Martha sometimes talks about it, if she hadn't moved to New York to pursue her dream of being an actress, I'm afraid she would have encountered some accidents." ”

Baker said, "Didn't you ask someone to investigate? ”

Richard smiled, "Not before, now there is." ”

"What?"

"I've always wanted to explore Rogers Manor, and this time, we can fight together."

“……”

Baker glanced at Richard, who said so, and after a moment of silence, said, "Well, can you let me down at the traffic light in front, I suddenly don't want to go." ”

Richard: "......"

Adventure is a sporty act, and vacation is a leisure act, and Baker plans to follow Richard to Rogers Manor for a vacation to soak in the hot springs, but he doesn't want to play any manor adventure games.

And a broken manor, what's worth exploring?

Baker couldn't figure it out.

Of course.

Baker said before that the person who got off the bus at the red street light intersection in front of him was just talking and joking, and the big deal was to go to the manor, he soaked in his hot springs, and Richard played his father-daughter adventure game.

In the afternoon.

Almost as the sun was about to set, the two cars drove one after the other to the door of a manor that looked slightly dilapidated from the outside.

Baker got out of the car, waited until Alexis opened the iron gate with the key to the manor, and pulled the iron door to the sides, revealing a passage that allowed the car to enter the manor, and then looked up at the manor in front of him.

The building of the manor is nothing peculiar, just like other manors that bloom in the Federation, after all, the history of the Federation is only long, and he wants a sense of the weight of history, he also has the heart but is powerless.

It's just that......

The manor in front of me has more indescribable flavor than the ordinary manor, and it seems that there is a kind of suppressed darkness.

But it's an old building, and it's normal to have darkness, after all, this is not a world of scientific values, otherwise, how could there be so many legends of seeing evil spirits in the Federation.

And this darkness has not yet reached the point where Baker needs to be afraid, so Baker does not care.

Open the door.

Alexis, whose face was full of anticipation for the mansion manor that was about to belong to him, suddenly collapsed after seeing the scene inside the main hall of the manor.

Dirty mess.

To say that this is not a manor but an abandoned dump is no one to object.

Baker and the others looked at each other for a moment.

Kate stroked Alexis' little head and said, "Well, fortunately, we have considered bringing the tent here." ”

The expression on Alexis' face was even more exciting.

Let's get back to it.

Baker and Richard rolled up their sleeves to clean up the house in the main hall, and the ladies set up a barbecue grill on the lush grass in front of the main hall.

Boom!

Baker single-handedly pulled a half-angel statue towards the location of the garbage collection point: "Anyway, why do you have so many angel statues in a manor?" ”

Performance art?

Suppressing evil spirits?

Richard struggled to move the angel statue in his hand: "Who knows, but after Clive Rogers inherited Rogers Manor, his behavior became more and more strange. ”

Baker helped Richard throw the seventh angel statue over: "Weird, tell me about it? ”

Work without affecting the chat, some people say that the efficiency of stuffy work is very high, some say very low, Baker feels that if he stuffy work, he will be sleepy.

The most important point.

Baker also became interested in the estate.

At the beginning, Baker could feel the darkness that seemed to be suppressed, but after the few of them set foot on the manor, the suppressed darkness seemed to loosen somewhat.

Richard said: "I remember Uncle Clive Rogers was a very cheerful person, when I was young, I liked to go to him very much, but since Clive Rogers moved into the manor, he gradually seemed to be a different person, once, when I just got my driver's license and ran here, before I got close to the manor, I was scolded by Clive Rogers and told me not to come to him again." ”

Baker raised an eyebrow: "That's weird indeed. ”

Richard shrugged: "I think too, but at that time, I was young, so I have been disconnected from Clive Rogers since then." ”

Then.

Quack!

A flock of crows fluttered from the forest behind the manor, and with the darkness that had just been curtained, the atmosphere suddenly became a little weird.

Baker looked at the place where the crows had vacated: "What's in the forest, don't tell me, the hot springs are in the forest." ”

Richard said, "Well, but the natural hot springs are on the other side of the forest, and over there, if I'm not mistaken, the Rogers family graveyard is located." ”

The Rogers family started out as an ordinary family, but with the rise of Steve Rogers, the Rogers family also hitched a ride and annexed the nearby land, which led to the establishment of this huge Rogers Manor with hot springs and family cemetery.

Baker nodded.

No wonder.

In the cemetery, it is normal for some dark energy to exist, especially as Richard mentioned that over the years, the men of the Rogers family have died unexpectedly one after another.

Those who die unexpectedly are those who die horizontally, and there is resentment, although the West does not pay attention to these, but, if this is the case, it can explain why Richard has a sense of revival in this suppressed darkness as soon as he enters the door.

Who let Richard Casor have the blood of the Rogers family in his body?

Eight o'clock in the evening.

The living room on the first floor of the main hall of the manor has been cleaned, the electric lights have been lit, and the firewood for the fireplace has been burned.

Baker and the others sat on the ground, eating the food in front of them, talking and laughing, and by the way, calculating how much it would cost to repair the manor.

Alexis already regretted it.

This manor is different from the manor she imagined, where is this inheritance, this is simply inheriting a large amount of negative equity, just next year's property tax, if Richard does not give money, Alexis has no other way but to declare himself bankrupt.

Richard didn't want Alexis to sell the estate to him, but Clive Rogers' will clearly stipulated that Alexis, as the heir, could not sell the estate or inherit it to anyone who had any blood relationship with the Rogers family.

Alexis looked at Baker, "Uncle Morton, or I'll sell it to you." ”

Baker laughed, "I'm a New Yorker." ”

If he wanted to move somewhere else, would he have the last remaining vampires scavenger in Manhattan, and besides, he didn't have a manor, he was just still renovating.

"So I had to give up the inheritance?"

Alexis sighed and said, she has lived in New York since she was a child, her friends and classmates are all New Yorkers, compared to Baker, Alexis is a well-established New Yorker.

As for why you should give up.

The reason is simple.

In Clive Rogers' will, in addition to the previous one, there is also a clause that if Alexis chooses to accept the inheritance here, then Alexis must settle here.

Yes.

If Alexis does not choose to settle here, the Rogers Manor will be in public ownership.
