Chapter 287: Clues on Old Photos
It's just right today.
Chen Lun and Tracy strolled along the banks of the Lingyu River in the eastern district of Peacock City.
The river is a tributary of the Weiling River outside Peacock City, which straddles the Northwest and East Districts, and is a beautiful sight in the city.
On both sides of the river, there are many sprinkle bars and dance halls, which are very lively. There are also some families who live along the river, and privately run a boating activity, only need to pay two silver knights, you can get a small boat, and play in the river for an hour.
Chen Lun felt the oncoming breeze and glanced at the girl beside him.
In fact, even if she didn't come to find her, Chen Lun planned to take the initiative to go to Viscount Harrington's house and try to get in touch with her father. But since Tracy sent it to the door himself, he didn't mind going through this girl to get a rough idea of some clues.
"Mr. Jack, let's go rowing!"
Tracy turned his head to look at Chen Lun, showed a shy smile, pointed to the boats coming and going on the river, and whispered.
"Miss Trill is wearing a long dress today, is it convenient?"
Chen Lun asked with a smile.
"I'm fine!"
Tracy quickly shook his head, expectant in his eyes.
"Well, okay then."
Chen Lun thought about it and agreed to the proposal.
The two went to a private cabin by the river and knocked on the outermost window.
There is a sign hanging next to the window with a breakdown of the price of boating, opening hours and precautions, etc.
It doesn't look professional, but it's also a lot of fun.
The window opened from the inside, revealing the face of a middle-aged woman, who smiled respectfully and even a little flattering when she saw Chen Lun's outfits.
"Good day, Mr. and Miss, are you going to row?"
"Let's row for an hour first, it's not enough to add more, and the extra silver jue is considered a tip."
Chen Lun took out three silver jukes and handed them over, the woman took them quickly, thanked him, and then gave him a key.
"Have fun, both."
According to the direction of the woman's guidance, Chen Lun took Tracy to the trestle bridge by the lake, and then unlocked the corresponding lock with the key and boarded the small wooden boat.
Tracy put the umbrella away, then lifted the skirt with his hand, and looked at the boat with a slight hesitation, as if he was worried that he would not be able to jump and fall into the river.
Seeing this, Chen Lun smiled slightly.
"Miss Trille, I'll help you. @η²Ύε\/Shuge*First Update~~"
As he spoke, he held out his hand gentlemanly.
Tracy's cheeks were slightly red, and she put her little hand on the palm of the other's hand.
She couldn't help but feel a warmth coming from her hand, and at the same time steady and powerful.
As Tracy easily came to the boat with the help of Chen Lun, a strong sense of security surged in her heart.
Chen Lun asked Miss Tracy to sit down, then untied the rope hanging from the trestle, and with a strong push, the boat slowly left the shore.
Each of them held an oar and began to row.
Tracy always maintained the image of a lady, rowing with great care, and she also quietly observed Mr. Jack beside her.
Looking at his perfect face, his heart beat faster.
"Miss Tracy, why don't you tell me about some interesting things in Peacock City?"
Chen Lun used the oars to control the direction, avoiding spinning in place, and then said softly.
"It's like something mysterious...... You know, as a magician, I'm more interested in this stuff. β
"Something mysterious?"
Tracy came back to his senses, then racked his brains and began to remember.
She wanted to show more in front of Mr. Jack so that the other party could have more good feelings about her.
"Because Peacock City is a harbor city, there have been rumors of "Kraken" in the dock area to the south...... It is said to be a beautiful creature with a face similar to that of a female human, but with a body covered in fish scales.
They also have a beautiful singing voice that can bewitch humans, but they are bloodthirsty and brutal, often tricking humans into the water and then killing them. β
Tracy whispered.
Chen Lun nodded, indicating that he was listening carefully.

Speaking of the Kraken, he couldn't help but think of the deep sea pathway.
The name of sequence 6 of this path is also called "Kraken", and the sequence is extremely similar to this transcendent creature, and it is not known what the connection between the two is.
The necklace on his chest was the posthumous incarnation of a [Kraken] transcendent.
"I've also heard of people who married a kraken and had children, but the end was extremely tragic...... These were all from the mouths of the sailors in the dock area, and my father told me that it was the territory of the "Blue Sails" gang, and he never let me get close, so I don't know if it's true or not. β
Tracy added.
"Kraken? It's funny...... As a nobleman, Miss Trill should usually attend parties with other noble ladies, right? β
Chen Lun asked with a chuckle.
"Well, I have several friends who have a good relationship, most of them are from aristocratic families, and the elders of the family are in constant contact with my father."
Miss Tracy smiled sweetly.
Chen Lun then borrowed this topic to guide Miss Tracy and tell some mysterious stories in aristocratic circles.
Looking at Chen Lun's curious expression, the girl seemed very interested, and told him everything in detail.
Chen Lun nodded and echoed a few words.
His humorous words, and the fact that he responded appropriately every time, made Miss Tracy very happy, and found it very interesting to talk to Mr. Jack.
But Chen Lun was a little disappointed in his heart.
Because he didn't get any valuable information from Tracy.
There is still no clue which nobleman that opportunity is.
"Mr. Jack, there's the "Cruise Museum" ahead, are we going to see it? β
Tracy said suddenly.
Chen Lun pulled his attention back and looked up.
On the bank of the river ahead, there were several huge white "house boats", which were only slightly shorter than ordinary bungalows, but more slender.
The doors and windows are in place, and it looks like a house on the river.
"What's that?"
Chen Lun asked curiously.
"It's actually a resident's house, and the family lives on a boat. But they have a lot of antiques and small items about the local history that are placed on the tables and on the interior walls of the cabins for guests to see...... We call this kind of boat the "Boat Museum". β
Tracy said with a smile.
"This is a more characteristic thing in Peacock City, if outsiders come here, they can often spend dozens of copper croon to a silver jue to learn about the local history and stories...... The content carried by each ship is different and will be very fresh. β
Chen Lun was a little interested.
He smiled at Tracy:
"Then let's go check it out."
The two rowed the small wooden boat to the side of the plank road, and then tied the rope to the stake, and then turned around and went to the "Boat Museum".
When I went inside, I found that the family was busy in the cabin. The father and captain of the ship were explaining the old objects on the wall to a couple, while the mother was cooking the food, and the girls were obediently carrying the food to the guests.
Chen Lun looked at the notice on the wall at the entrance, consciously took out two silver jukes as tickets, and threw them into a tin can, making a loud sound.
"Welcome to the Ottlai Cruise Museum, Mr. and Miss."
A little girl with sharp eyes saw the arrival of Chen Lun and the others, and shouted sweetly.
"Thank you, sir."
Another little girl ran over and said with a smile.
She also held up a plate of freshly fried oyster cakes from her mother.
"Please try it, free of charge."
"Thank you. Error-free updates @"
Chen Lun responded with a polite smile, took off his gloves, and picked up a piece with his hand and put it in his mouth.
He was surprised by the golden brown and crispy oyster cakes that were fried on both sides.
"Try it too, Miss Trille."
He said to Tracy beside him.
Tracy snorted, smiled and picked up a piece, began to taste it, and then praised it.
"Sir, you are so good-looking."
The little girl looked up. (This chapter is not finished!) )

Chen Lun, said in a childish voice.
Miss Tracy on the side couldn't help but laugh.
"Thanks for the compliment."
Chen Lun took out a piece of silver and put it in the girl's hand.
"It's a tip for you, please help me tell your mother that the oyster cakes are delicious."
The little girl was pleasantly surprised, and after thanking Chen Lun for lifting her skirt, she couldn't wait to run towards the kitchen with her plate, and said loudly that she had met a good-looking, good-looking gentleman, who praised your oyster cakes for being delicious.
There was a faint exchange in the kitchen.
Chen Lun and Tracy smiled at each other and walked towards the interior of the cabin.
Along the way, the two of them looked at some of the antiques on the table, as well as the old newspapers and old photographs that hung on the wall after the watch had been mounted.
Suddenly, Chen Lun's attention was drawn to an old photograph.
It was a photo of an old factory building that seemed to have been abandoned because it had fallen into disrepair.
"This is the Harrington Toy Factory."
Tracy came to Chen Lun's side and explained in a low voice.
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.
"Is this Miss Trill's property?"
"Hmmm......"
Tracy smiled.
"But it was sold by my grandfather more than 10 years ago, and now it has been converted into a slaughterhouse, and the canned pork made is selling well in Peacock City."
"So that's it, it's an interesting history."
Chen Lun sighed.
But his eyes were always focused on the corner of the old photo, a "decoration" on the side of the outer wall of the factory.
It was a human-tall toy model that looked like a steel doll.
Chen Lun knew what it was.
It was one of the opportunities that was in his heart!
"The opportunity hidden in the hands of the nobility seems to be an iron puppet...... The clue has been found! β
Chen Lun thought to himself.
In a casual tone, he asked Tracy:
"This toy model looks so interesting, have you ever seen it as a kid? Miss Trille? β
"When you were a child? I'm not impressed. β
Tracy looked at the corner of the old photo that Chen Lun was pointing to and shook his head.
Chen Lun was slightly disappointed.
But Miss Tracy's face immediately showed thought.
"However, I always feel like I've seen ...... somewhere lately."
She noticed Chen Lun's concerned gaze, and then smiled.
"Why don't I think about it when I get back, and tell you if I remember, and then we'll go and see it together...... Such a large toy model is now unavailable. β
"Good. Error-free updates @"
Chen Lun chuckled.

When the two of them left the boat museum and rowed back.
Several bodyguards, who had been secretly protecting Miss Tracy, whispered to each other on the shore.
"Miss Tracy quietly left the manor just to go out on a date with the magician named "Jack"? β
"What is going to be done about this?"
"What else can I do, tell Viscount Harrington the truth."
The bodyguards shook their heads, as if they had seen the young magician's bad luck.
