"You don't have to worry about that, the Duke of Wellington's education plan has long been scheduled for the two barons to be forty years old," Arthur took a pumpkin pie from the table and stuffed it into his mouth, "but you, Holmes already knows, you were taken away by the countess in the middle of the night, right?"

"yes, so?"

"Can you introduce that beauty to me?"

"Sorry, no. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Hmm...... It is worthy of the person who is known as the flower of North County, who has captured Professor Magellan's heart so quickly. ”

"I said Arthur, you are very rich, handsome, and temperamental, why don't you have a female companion until now?"

"Because I, like Sherlock Holmes, know that I have to focus on my own things and not be distracted. ”

"Who opened the door to the two barons?" Magellan finally felt his familiar place returning.

"It's me," Holmes stood up and walked to the window, "they didn't have any adults around, and I thought they were new neighbors." ”

"Ah...... If they expected this result, it really meets the requirements of the hunter, forget it, we will not call it the hunter in the future, but the basic interpretation club. ”

"By the way, change the meeting place from the gloomy home of Sherlock Holmes to the big house of Professor Magellan. ”

"Sorry, I'm staying in the cheapest little room in the attic of a small hotel right now. Arthur, the famous bounty hunter, you are so rich, you always have a big house for money, right?"

"I live in a small place, and I often have to move to avoid my enemies. ”

"So, let's do the math, once a month, when two immaculate little angels walk into the Sherlock Holmes cave, just right, how likely is it that the demons are telling jokes together?"

"Much bigger than you think, they won't come over when Holmes isn't home. ”

Dr. Watson smiled: "It's not bad either, at least one day a month Holmes won't do anything crazy because he doesn't have a case." ”

Magellan and Arthur fell silent together.

......

The Duke of Wellington's mansion occupies a large area, but there is no garden or anything at all, and there is an unobstructed meadow outside the villa.

Although his title was won by naval warfare, in the end, deep down, he still has the rigor of the army, and there is no romance of the navy at all.

When Magellan followed his servants into the residence, the two barons were playing on the grass.

They seem to be playing with an invisible ball, watching the action, which is the simplest way to play throwing and catching the ball.

Magellan had good eyesight, and he saw that the eyes of the two children changed from lake blue to turquoise, which must have crystals on their eyes.

He couldn't help but sigh at the duke's wealth and preference for the two children, you know, the children's eyes are very easy to hurt, these two pairs of crystals must be custom-made, and they are worth a lot of money.

"Ah, Professor Magellan. The girl in the skirt gave a wicked smile and waved at Magellan.

Magellan smiled, and as he turned to his side, he saw the unhappiness on the boy's face.

"Ah, it's not fun, go back. ”

The servant on one side looked like he hadn't seen anything, and took Magellan into the living room on his own.

The Duchess exchanged pleasantries with Magellan there, and then asked the butler to take him to the two barons.

It was a beautiful woman who was no longer young, and it was clear that the twins had inherited their cuteness from their mother, as well as those lake-blue eyes.

Surprisingly, the children also had their own reception room, and it was exactly the same as the Duchess.

"Good morning, Professor Magellan. ”

"Good morning. Magellan smiled, and the two children did not seem to be as "well-behaved" as he thought.

"How did you get there?"

Magellan knew that the boy was talking about the "ball" that the girl had thrown at him outside. He looked amusedly at the girl who was trying to hide her curiosity and the boy who was not curious at all, and waved his hand.

"I can see it. ”

"Well, that's true. The girl muttered, then walked over to the table and stood on the chair.

"I found it, the treasure map of the legendary pirate. ”

"That's only a small part, and you can't tell where the treasure is just by looking at the treasure map. ”

The girl took out a piece of parchment from a thick book and spread it out on the table.

Magellan walked over and looked at the piece of paper.

At first glance, this is not a "treasure map" at all, the square parchment is densely filled with ancient Theros letters, square and neat, with no punctuation marks or spaces. But if you look closely, you can see that this is indeed a "picture", although it is a bit strange.

On this piece of paper, there are twenty-four ancient Theros letters, but it is obvious that the first letter forms the line, the seventh letter representing divinity forms the target point, and the rest of the letters are backgrounds.

If you look at it this way, you can see that this is a very pirate-style treasure map, with simple lines, emphasis on iconic objects, and as the boy said, only a part. It's an island, but an important clue is missing: where the island is.

"Is there any other information hidden in the letters?"

"Hide your head, jump frames, Fib number sequences, common letter probabilities......" The girl frowned cutely, "We tried all the possibilities." ”

"If you don't have a key, you can't open the lock. No matter how simple the password is, if you don't know, you don't know. The boy said solemnly, like a little adult, "And it's possible that it's an easy way to hide, and there's no password at all." ”

"Can you tell me," Magellan said, picking up the parchment and putting it under the sunlight and looking at the back, "where did this treasure map come from?"

"A captain of the Navy, whose ancestors were pirates, is said to have had the privilege of participating in the naval battle with the Armada. ”

"He dug out a copy of the pirate code in a drawer in the captain's room on one of the surviving surrendered enemy ships, and this piece of parchment was hidden inside. ”

"The pirate who had a good relationship with Count Drake tried to find this treasure, but failed, so more than a hundred years later, it became a gift for Dad. ”

Magellan smiled: "What a legend, it is history in itself, thank you for letting me see such a precious artifact." ”

Both children laughed, although their IQ was far better than ordinary people, they were actually very simple.

"There was only one pirate who would know the ancient Sellos alphabet, and that was the Pirate of the Black Sails, and the parchment of that era was still very rudimentary, so there was nothing wrong with the paper itself. ”

"Ah...... There's no clue......"
