Chapter 84: Plagiarism
So, where will that drawing be placed?
To make sure no one else saw what he was doing, he gently closed the door behind him and locked it.
After scanning for a week, I found that the room was full of various tools, and there were several bookshelves full of various books on the side, and there were some locked boxes next to it.
Eagles quickly searched through the shelves, and in order not to make too much noise and leave a trace, he gently picked up the book, glanced at it and saw that it was not what he needed, and put it back.
Tumbling back and forth so repeatedly, I didn't find any books about the design drawings. The shelves are full of scattered books from nowhere, all related to ship maintenance techniques, and some even basic primers on magic.
None of this was what Igus wanted, and he quickly turned his gaze to the locked box on the side.
If you're inside, it's going to take a lot of time.
The man took out the 'master key' and a dagger from his waist, put them in the lock hole at the same time, took a deep breath, and began to turn the key and dagger.
During this time, he kept silent, and even his breathing slowed down a lot, listening intently to the sound of turning the keyhole.
Click.
After a few minutes, the crisp sound was as loud as the ringing of a holy bell, and the sound echoed through the quiet room.
Igus opened the box and examined its contents, revealing that there was nothing useful except for a few notes. As he closed the box in disappointment, he was slightly stunned and his eyes were fixed on a notebook titled 'The Song of Mermaid Tears'.
After thinking about the pros and cons for a few seconds, he quickly removed the notebook and put it in his clothes, before relocking the box.
After going back and forth with lock-picking skills, after opening a few wooden boxes, Igus finally found a roll of drawings that seemed to be blueprints, and he immediately picked up the drawings in the box and spread them out from the table.
"Is this the one?" he muttered, looking at the unfolded drawings.
I saw that this rectangular drawing of more than half a square meter in size, which clearly depicted the structure of each part of the Fu Lisang, and even a detailed explanation of the materials required for construction, was a very detailed design drawing.
There is even a strange mechanism in the captain's room, and the corridor is relatively not horizontal, but sloping.
"So... Now that I've found itβ" Igus took out another piece of blue paper half a square meter in size from his bosom, and saw that the paper was extremely smooth, sprinkled with orange powder, and shiny like fine sand on the beach.
If you take the blueprints away, once the boss comes back to check the blueprints, it will quickly become clear that the blueprints have been stolen. At that time, I am afraid that it will cause great panic and chaos, and I will soon suspect myself.
For now, it's absolutely unfavorable.
So, Iguez prepared an item that everyone didn't expect, paper made of magic.
And its function is very simple, it is to copy patterns and words on other paper.
"Magic, that's so convenient," Igus whispered to himself, holding the blue magic paper in both hands, aiming at the corners of the drawing, and pressing it hard.
After about half a minute, the pattern of the ship appeared vaguely on the magic paper. After another half a minute, the design of the Fu Lisan appeared perfectly on the magic paper.
Seeing that the magic paper had been copied, Igus quickly put the blueprint back in the box and locked it again. Then fold the magic blueprint and put it in your clothes.
After making sure everything in the room is restored, turn around and walk towards the wooden door behind you.
He was about to turn the grip on the door when he reached out with one hand and was about to turn the grip on the door, when suddenly the door opened from the outside.
"Eagles, why are you in there?"
The leader of the maintenance squad frowned and stared at the emaciated man in front of him with a serious expression.
And his right hand quietly touched the handcuff on his waist.
Eagles was slightly stunned, and immediately came back to his senses. He knew very well in his heart that if he couldn't answer this question, the leader would definitely shoot without hesitation.
Even if he is the lifesaver of the ringleader.
"Shhh "Of course I'm here, and as for why I'm here, I'm here." β
The man took out the gray key from his waist, shook it in front of the leader, and whispered, "Remember who it belongs to?"
"It's notβ" The leader looked at Agurts with puzzled eyes, he couldn't understand why the key he had given to Manro was in Igus's hand.
But he didn't let go of his grip on the handcuff.
"Ahem, remember when I said Manro was drunk and unconscious last night?" Eagles coughed awkwardly and cleared his throat, "This morning, he seems to have remembered something missing in your studio, but he couldn't retrieve it himself because of a headache and vomiting. You see if you have any impressions of this. β
Eagles took out a pair of underwear with white dots on a red background and handed it to the leader.
"This, it's not..."
"That's right, it's Manroe's. β
The leader of the maintenance squad recognized at a glance who the underwear belonged to, and there seemed to be a strange smell left on the underwear.
"Ahem, so Ahem, Eagles knows, since when?" the leader coughed awkwardly, loosening his grip on the handcuff, "You'd better put it away first." β
The emaciated man nodded, put away his underwear, and spoke: "Well, about a few months ago, that guy said it in the night when he was drunk, and I wasn't sure until he entrusted it to me this morning." β
"That's why you didn't tell anyone else that you were here? I'm a little embarrassed..."
"It's okay, I understand. β
After the two men were silent for a moment in an awkward atmosphere, Agus spoke: "Well, then, I'd better take my leave." β
"Well, then Iguez, please. β
When Igus was about to leave, the leader seemed to remember something and called out to Igus, "Regarding today's work, I agree that you can leave early." You'd better take good care of Manro. β
The emaciated man nodded silently in agreement, turned and left the fourth deck.
......
Back in his room, Eagles was almost out of breath, his heart still beating violently. Fortunately, he had a series of backup plans, otherwise there was no doubt that he would definitely be shot by the boss just now.
"A hundred hearts are not enough. The man took a deep breath, calmed down, and made sure no one was eavesdropping, and then locked the door of his room and took the magic paper from his bosom.
I didn't have time to look closely, and now that I had the opportunity, Iguez certainly wouldn't let it go.
Sure enough, he was right. Sure enough, he noticed that there was a large space behind the captain's quarters, and that there was some kind of incomprehensible mechanism carved in the space, with two slender lines drawn in the middle, extending to the stern of the ship.
Even if he couldn't understand how the mechanism worked, Igus knew it was a catapult-like device.
At the same time, from somewhere on the second deck, in an extremely secluded place, there was a passage about the size of an adult's body, which extended to the third deck, where the captain's cabin was located.
Igus stared at the number carved into the ejection mechanism behind the captain's room, and watched with fascination.
Half a moment later, his brow furrowed with a serious expression, and the frequency of his heart gradually increased.
