Chapter 144: The Little Drop of Water in the Temple

The Marquis of Thierry named a man as he cut the steak, but Yu Chen was sure that the man himself had never even heard of it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Yu Chen knew that Marquis Thierry must have something to do, so he didn't interject. The breakfast was a bit dull, the Marquis de Thierry was expressionless, and Louise opened her mouth wide in shock when she heard the name from her uncle's mouth.

However, in order to maintain the image of a lady, Louise did not make a sound in surprise, but she had lost her appetite by the name in her uncle's mouth, Louise cut the steak mechanically, she didn't notice that she was cutting a plate, Louise couldn't figure it out, how could it be him?

After waiting for Yu Chen to finish breakfast, the Marquis of Thierry immediately uncovered the mystery for him. With a snap of his fingers, the two servants carried a corpse to Yu Chen.

'Is he?' Yu Chen didn't expect that the person who died happened to know him, and this was the butler sent by the Marquis of Thierry to greet him that day!

"How did he die?" Yu Chen couldn't see any injuries from the corpse, and when the corpse appeared in front of him, Yu Chen had already guessed that this was the inner ghost that the Marquis of Thierry was talking about. Yu Chen didn't expect it to be done by the big butler, no wonder Marquis Thierry had a calm face all morning, and the anger of Marquis Thierry in the face of the betrayal of his henchmen can be imagined.

Louise looked at the butler's corpse for a long time, and she vaguely remembered that it was when she was a child that the butler accompanied her through the most boring days.

"Uncle, is this true?" Louise couldn't accept the facts, she couldn't think of a reason for the butler's betrayal. For Louise, housekeepers are an important part of her childhood memories, and now she suddenly says that the housekeeper who has followed her uncle for more than ten years is an internal ghost, how could Louise accept it all at once.

"He committed suicide, taking the same poison as the black-robed man. The Marquis of Thierry knew what his niece was thinking, he knew that the death of the butler had touched his niece a lot, and he himself didn't want to believe that the butler who had followed him for many years was an internal ghost, but in the face of ironclad evidence, the Marquis of Thierry also had to accept the reality.

"It was found in his room. After answering Yu Chen's question, the Marquis of Thierry presented more evidence.

The servants placed suspicious items on the table one by one that they had found in the butler's room. Among these items, it is undoubtedly a set of priest's robes and a streamlined small droplet made of unknown materials that are the most eye-catching.

"Oh my God?"

"How could it be, Uncle Butler is a member of the Temple!" Louise covered her mouth with her hand, she never thought that Uncle Butler, who had accompanied her for most of her childhood, would be a priest!

Yu Chen looked at the streamlined small droplet and fell silent, if the priest's robe can be forged, then this streamlined small droplet undoubtedly confirms the identity of the housekeeper. Yu Chen had seen from the classics that not everyone in Reims could have streamlined droplets, and that had to be the most loyal believers in the temple who believed in the goddess of water. And the technology to create this streamlined water droplet has been lost, and it is impossible to fool it with shoddy imitations.

"Can I take a look?" Yu Chen became interested in the delicate little water droplets, he had only seen the pictures in the classics before, but this was the first time Yu Chen had seen the real thing.

"Absolutely. "Of course, the Marquis of Thierry didn't mind satisfying Yu Chen's curiosity. With a casual wave of his hand, the Marquis de Thierry ordered his men to remove the unsightly corpse. Of course, Marquis Thierry wouldn't just forget about this matter, the temple has gone beyond the bottom line, and Marquis Thierry was really angry, he didn't expect that the temple would have reached his core.

However, in anger, the Marquis of Thierry did not make a big deal about it, he did not use this as a bargaining chip to blackmail the temple or an excuse to attack the temple, on the contrary, the Marquis of Thierry blocked the news, and the Marquis of Thierry had his own judgment on this matter, he always felt that this matter was too deliberate, and the Marquis of Thierry's intuition told him that this matter was not so simple, and the Marquis of Thierry did not intend to act rashly before he had more evidence.

The Marquis of Thierry is really hard to believe that this matter is done by the temple, he always feels that someone is deliberately framing him, the Marquis of Thierry has personally sent a letter to the Grand Duke of Burgundy to explain the assassination of his beloved apprentice, and today in front of Yu Chen, it is also an attitude of the Marquis of Thierry, he does not want to make the Grand Duke of Burgundy suspicious of himself because of poor information.

While Yu Chen was carefully admiring the delicate droplet, Louise withdrew from the table, citing her ill health. Louise's eyes were red, and she wanted to be alone. There were already few people around Louise who could talk, and now there was one less, and Louise was in a really bad mood, and she really wanted to cry.

After Louise left the table, Yu Chen continued to play with the small droplets of the temple, he saw the blue shadow on the small droplets of exquisite craftsmanship, although there seemed to be no connection between the two, but Yu Chen would find an inexplicable sense of familiarity in the body of the small droplets. I can't put into words, but Yu Chen can clearly confirm that there must be some connection between the two.

"Can this be left with me for the time being?" Yu Chen asked the Marquis Thierry tentatively, he didn't know if the Marquis would agree, but Yu Chen really wanted to take it back and study it.

"Nephew Yu Chenxian, if you like it, take it. The Marquis of Thierry withdrew after expressing his apologies to Yu Chen for the assassination, he has more important things to do, as for this no droplet, the Marquis of Thierry just didn't think about how to deal with it, this hot potato was just right for Yu Chen.

That's because there is a number of these small droplets, and as far as the Marquis of Thierry knows, there are only a few hundred, and the temple has always attached great importance to this, and the devout people of the temple have always regarded the small droplets as the honor of the temple, so if there are small droplets of water flowing outside, then the temple will definitely come to the door. Of course, the Marquis of Thierry, who is an important piece of water, does not plan to hand it over easily, but if the temple is tested, this matter will become a big trouble, Marquis Thierry is good at business, and the last thing a merchant likes is trouble, so even if he is asked to give the small drop to Yu Chen, it is not his thing anyway, what does the Marquis of Thierry have to lose?
