Chapter 176: Dignified and Elegant
Lewis pulled the £1 bill out of his pocket and put it directly into the violinist's hat.
The currency of Intis is similar to that of Rune, both of which are gold standards defined by the country's major banks, but the style of the currency is different.
Rune's currency has to be exchanged for Intis currency through the bank for a fee, so that it can be used unhindered.
But even so, a pound is still a lot of money, especially for "artists" who have no place to live.
The violinist glanced at Lewis in surprise and said with great sincerity:
"You are the most generous gentleman I have ever met, and you are beside the most beautiful lady I have ever met."
Lewis nodded, smiled and straightened up, and the violinist walked away.
In Intis, he plays the role of a businessman from Rune who is deeply interested in Intis culture.
In order to create the image of a young rich man, like some unnecessary extravagant consumption, it has become necessary for him now.
It's just that Lewis hasn't figured out what to invest in business yet.
I don't know if there is such a person as the Wright brothers in this world, if he can really meet, he will definitely consider investing in gliders.
The last rays of sunlight shone through the windows, and the gentlemen and ladies in the carriage seemed to be tired, relieved from the initial twittering and joking state.
As the train pulls into Trier, a towering tower appears in the distance.
Stephanie looked at the tower and said in surprise: "When I left two years ago, the construction of the Tower of Trier had just begun, but I didn't expect it to be completed now. ”
"It's really a majestic tower." Lewis never shy with his praise, and with the power of the times, building a tower over 300 meters tall is indeed a remarkable project.
I am afraid that when this project is underway, there should be a lot of extraordinary people involved, and this is what we have today.
In front of the Eiffel Tower is the famous Saipan River, which plays the role of navigation and on which the city of Trier was built.
The steam train runs straight in the direction of the Saipan River, and finally stops outside the historic Trier station with a loud roar.
Lewis leaves the train station with Stephanie and officially arrives in a city steeped in culture.
As it was getting late, Lewis and Stephanie found a large hotel to stay in, and the cost of accommodation alone amounted to a staggering 10 pounds a night.
However, it is relatively necessary for Lewis to spend money to maintain decency, and his current status as a businessman from Rune must do something that is in line with his status.
Passing through the ornate arcades, Lewis was led by a waiter toward the room, where artistic paintings hung in the arcades.
Suddenly, he looked into one of the rooms, where there was a vague, painful gasp.
If it weren't for his excellent hearing, it would have been impossible to hear the sounds in the room.
"Sir." The waiter called Lewis and reminded him that his behavior was rude.
Lewis lifted his half-height silk top hat and smiled:
"I'm sorry, I like the life of Intis so much, that oil painting just now seems to be the real work of Mr. Vantis."
"Yes, we have a lot of art in our hotel, if you are interested, you can go to the museum tomorrow morning to take a closer look."
"Of course, I'll enjoy it quietly." Lewis spread his hands and pretended to be relaxed.
Through the long hallway, he was able to reach his room.
Pushing open the door and entering, the room had a double velvet bed, a bathtub, a telegraph, and several gas lamps standing everywhere.
The patterns on the tables and chairs are intricate and beautiful, and the waiter brings hot milk to help you sleep.
Taking advantage of Miss Stephanie's visit to the bathtub, Lewis sat aside and frowned.
"Life in Intis is more fun than I imagined, and in such a hotel, where you can always hear the voices of ladies enjoying themselves, it is hard to imagine that they are so dignified and elegant during the day.
However, it was the room that intrigued me the most, and my gut told me that there was danger in the room. ”
After thinking about it, Lewis took out a citrine pendant from his coat pocket, wrapped the pendant around his right hand, and silently recited the divination statement:
"I should have taken a look in the room just now."
Citrine pendants exhibit a slow clockwise turn and should be looked at, but not too curious.
Lewis took his cane out of his suitcase, hid himself in the dark, and walked all the way to the first floor, the room where he first felt unusual.
There was still a faint gasp in the room, and Lewis stepped out of the shadows and knocked on the door.
Knock knock!
The ebony door was a little more dull, and there was no response from inside, but it didn't lock back.
Lewis used the power of his staff again to hide in the darkness, opening a gap that could only be accessed by one person.
This room was more luxurious than the one he had lived, with silver knight's armor hanging on the walls to show off his style, and a closet on the wall with a few bottles of expensive wine.
In the dim glow of the gas lamp, a man was groaning in pain, his body showing faint brown lines.
When Lewis appeared in front of him, the man suddenly opened his eyes, stretched out his hand and shouted:
"Help me."
"Sure enough, it involves extraordinary power, this man is suspected to have been invaded by some force, this power is not like an evil spirit."
Lewis turned on the vision, and under the observation of the vision, he could see a shadow on the man's chest, and the shadow seemed to form the shape of a small person.
He sensed a familiar sensation in the little man, a depravity.
He took out the lead box he had brought with him, and when he opened it, the smell of "sun phalanges" filled the room.
"Purify!"
Lewis whispered a mantra in Hermes, and a few drops of golden liquid fell from the golden phalanges, and a few drops of liquid fell on the shadow of the humanoid, and he "snorted" twice, and did not respond like a mud cow entering the sea.
The ability level of the "Sun Phalanges" is too low to shake this kind of thing at all.
"Please wait a minute." Lewis thought for a moment and said to the man.
He stepped aside, found a white candle, found rose essential oil and other items, and made a sealed spiritual wall.
Immediately afterward, he lit herbs within the sealed spiritual wall and recited the incantation:
"The spirit that wanders in vanity, the friendly creature that can be driven, belongs to Lewis alone. Harvey's Messenger. ”
As the spell ended, Miss Elana stepped out of the wall, lowered her head, and asked, "Letters, letters?" ”
