Chapter 293: Clues are often hidden in unexpected places
Lady Luck didn't end up on Richard's side, and probably never will. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Under Lin Qiu's rather famous decision, several people took the elevator to the first high platform that resembled a transit point unharmed. There is a door at the end of the high platform, the iron door is hidden, there is a row of beds behind the door, and the living conditions are very simple. The dormitory was built with a conscience, and the guards of the bell tower could sleep "safely" with just one elevator ride.
The oil lamps on the walls were still on, and the empty dormitory was a mess, and it looked like Güell and his men had been washed down by Bruno's sudden invasion before they could clean up. Several people rummaged through the dormitory for a long time, but they couldn't find any useful information.
In addition to the deceased old craftsmen, the one who stayed in this bell tower for the longest time was Güell.
Soon after the end of the Hundred Years' War, he became the chief guard of the bell tower, and no one knows the bell tower better than he does. But Güell was a man who was always inquisitive, and Henry V told him that it would be dangerous to take the elevator any further, so not only did he not explore the entire third floor himself, but he also strictly ordered his men not to take the elevator at will.
The notice he had prepared was posted in the most conspicuous position at the door, and you could see it as soon as you entered.
"Really, this old man writes something every day!" the black smoke man complained as he rummaged on the table for a long time. Güell's desk has a delicate little lock, but this lock doesn't stop members of the Secret Division from having full unlocking skills.
In the locked drawer, there was a thick pile of paper.
The Black Smoke Man had been looking through them with great anticipation, believing that these were not information about the clock tower, but they would be ulterior messages with some powerful people. He always believed that everyone had privacy, and that no matter how upright and upright people looked, they had a hard side to show - and one of his interests was to make their difficult side public.
Güell did have an unspeakable side, but it was obviously a little different from what he had imagined.
"On November 1st, today I went to drink with Duck and Edith again. Duck said that a new tavern had opened in Nethu, and he kindly invited us to join us...... Actually, we all know Dark, the guy looks very majestic, but in fact he is a person who blushes when accosted by a barmaid. Shame on you. ”
I've exposed some inconsequential little secrets!
The opening line on the first piece of paper has already set the tone for the rest of the story.
The Black Smoke Man's actions successfully attracted Lin Qiu's attention, and in order to prevent the Black Smoke Man from playing any tricks behind his back, he decided to supervise the Black Smoke Man. It's okay not to look at it, but when I saw the two people's faces, they instantly turned blue.
These diary-like things do reveal a lot of secrets, but most of them aren't about the clock tower. Through the above content, the black smoke man and Lin Qiu learned several amazing inside stories - for example, Captain Darke obviously likes to be surrounded by escort girls, but he puts on a disgusted appearance, where a new tavern opens, there is him, and for example, the person Edith likes is Jane, and whenever he gets drunk, he pulls the two of them to complain, saying how Jane has snubbed him recently.
The heaviest proportion is, of course, Güell himself. This disrespectful old man has always had a crush on a tavern proprietor, and the fleshy love words on the paper almost made Lin Qiu and the black smoke man vomit, but he just didn't dare to tell the proprietress about his friendship.
"Just like nothing happened...... "The black smoke man put the first half of the pile of paper back in the drawer.
For the first time, he felt that snooping on other people's secrets was sometimes countered - this Güell was one of the three great men of Spitane, and he was definitely a first-class master when it came to meaty words.
"Wait a minute!"
Lin Qiuqiang cheered himself up, because he finally found useful information in many love stories.
The handwriting on the paper was a little sloppy, and it seemed that Guell was in a somewhat anxious mood when he wrote this - "Grant hasn't come back yet, it's been an afternoon. ”
This style of painting suddenly caught Lin Qiu off guard, the last piece of paper was still the inner monologue of a sullen old man, and a suspenseful case occurred immediately after turning a page. On paper, it is stated that Grant is Güell's subordinate, and his position is similar to that of a squad leader.
"Grant told me in the morning that he heard strange noises on the elevator in the middle of the night and wanted to go up and check it out. I didn't care at the time, God knows how many gears there are on the third floor, and I can hear a lot of strange sounds in the middle of the night...... But Grant seemed serious, and if he wasn't allowed to investigate, he probably wouldn't have been able to sleep well for the next few days--I really want to say, Grant, what are you worried about? No one can come here unnoticed, except for the old craftsman who has long since died, and most of those strange sounds are gears in disrepair. But for the sake of following me since the war, I agreed to his request and gave him the three-story drawings. ”
This guy actually has a three-story blueprint!
Reading this, the black smoke man and Lin Qiu looked at each other and smiled, and they couldn't wait to turn the next page.
"I'm going to that tavern with them again today, and the hostess is as beautiful as ever......"
Next.
"Today I heard that there was a disturbance in the Colosseum, and Duck had to deal with it, and Edith was also upset, saying that there was a strange boy in a mask on his territory, who was recommended by the past captain. Past Captains...... Oh my God, is this guy still in correspondence with Alyssa Shucarredo?...... After the bell tower changed cooks, the food was getting lower and lower, and next time I must ask him to send a letter to Alyssa to reflect the situation here. I mean, it's better to bring in that Npisai guy. Edith left early, saying he was going to see what was going on in the Colosseum. ...... However, today's proprietress is still so delicate......"
Next.
"Today I went to the tavern by myself to see my beloved hostess. ”
......
"What are these things!" the black smoke man and Lin Qiu said in unison, and slapped the letter on the table. Judging from the content of the letter, this should be Zane's trouble, and the days when Lin Qiu first arrived.
But......
"Your subordinate Grant is missing! he's been following you for years, bastard!"
After another three pages passed, Lin Qiu and the black smoke man finally found the answer.
Güell's handwriting became sloppy again, and he even scribbled it many times.
The content on the paper was straight to the point, and such an astonishing transformation once again shocked Lin Qiu and the black smoke man on the spot.
"Grant is dead, three days after his disappearance, and his body has fallen from the platform, and his body is mutilated in several pieces, showing signs of being gnawed by beasts. Perhaps he was right to be worried, the old man never wrote about what kind of mechanism he had set up...... I should have redrawn a drawing and gone up and looked at it myself. ”
This is the penultimate one.
And there is only one paragraph on the last page.
"There's something downstairs that seems to be heard, go and see me. ”
