Chapter 81: Divine Grace: The Torrent of Life
Master Deritt!
According to the information Leo saw, this master jeweler should be in his early sixties, but his face obviously does not have many wrinkles, and it can even be said that he is quite white.
If it weren't for his beard, his high bulging Adam's apple and his deep voice, Leo would have even suspected that the other party had cultivated divine skills.
However, it can be seen that this master Dereiter, whose family is quite wealthy, as soon as he enters the door, Leo smells a faint fragrance, this smell is very similar to the aroma in the palace, and the various furniture furnishings, even Leo, a layman who has not studied these much, know its preciousness.
Of course, while Leo was looking at Master DeRuit, Master DeRuiter was also looking at him, this young excessive wind patrol, first of all, his qi was very amazing, and at a young age, he already had a terrifying rank of the ninth order, not to mention anything else, in terms of combat talent alone, he was the top.
And there seems to be an unpredictable and terrifying power in him, De Ruet thinks he can't see through it, but it can be seen that this Count Leo is quite unusual, by the way, and the middle-aged man who follows him.
It was simply a fog, shrouded in mystery, even if it did not exude a terrifying momentum, but Master Dereitt, who had an extremely keen perception, still sensed the extraordinaryness of the middle-aged man.
These people are not easy to deal with, Master Dereitt said secretly in his heart, but his face was still holding a shelf, and his face was cold.
"Master Dereitt," after the opening remarks of the two sides, Leo also went straight to the central topic, "I heard that about a month ago, the Jewelry Association had a dispute with the Crane family, and I came here for this matter. ”
Well?
Master De Ruite was slightly stunned, because of the dispute with the Klein family? What do you mean? This is to support the Crane family? It's not right, they didn't have a conflict, for a while, Master De Ruitt's brows frowned, and he seemed to be a little surprised.
"Why are you asking this?" Master De Ruiter was still a little unpleasant to be disturbed, and his words were quite cold, and he snorted coldly, which showed his attitude of rejecting people thousands of miles away.
This attitude naturally made Brown frown secretly, Leo was a powerful patrol envoy in the royal capital, even if it was a big nobleman, he would not have such an attitude.
"I am ordered by His Majesty the King to investigate and deal with the big case of the royal capital, whether it is an official or a nobleman of the kingdom, they need to cooperate, this matter is related to the case, so I also ask Master De Ruiter to explain. Leo looked as usual, and he also noticed that this Master Dereitt seemed to be not only a master jeweler, but also seemed to have a terrifying strength!
"You have His Majesty's orders, but I can't leak the privacy of customers at will," De Ruitt said lightly, picked up the coffee on the side and drank it down, closed his eyes slightly, and seemed to have some dislike of not wanting to communicate.
"Master De Ruite, your attitude makes us very embarrassed," Leo's voice also cooled slightly, he didn't expect this Master De Ruite to be so faceless, with his current power, even the three major dukes would not be so unkind.
However, this Master Dereiter does not enter the officialdom, with his own fame, even the big nobles are friendly with him, he has no conclusive evidence, it is really inconvenient to move him, or rather, the price paid by moving him is too great, at least the reputation in the kingdom in the future is not very good.
If he doesn't care about reputation, then that's fine, but in the future, where is the reputation so easy for the ambitious Leo to give up?
Wait a minute?
Leo's eyes swept around, and then he frowned and glanced at Master Dereitt, and suddenly noticed something, the jade knife on the side of Master DeRutt seemed to be engraved with a familiar rose?
Leo carefully searched for the information he had read before in his mind again, and his guess in his heart became more and more certain, and said to Brown, "You guys go out first." ”
Yes?
Brown was slightly stunned, not knowing why his lord would be like this, but since Leo gave the order, Brown also beckoned the wind patrol around him to exit the room, and even closed the door very thoughtfully.
Well?
Master Dereitt frowned slightly, and then raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little surprised by Leo's behavior, he was not going to close the door and beat himself? Or ......
Immediately afterwards, Leo took out a ring from his chest, the ring was quite simple, not very expensive, at least compared to the collection in the living room of Master Dereitt, it was definitely quite ordinary, but Master Dereitt was slightly shocked the moment he saw him.
It's a token of the Rose Society, and it's a token of the President of the Rose Society!
"You, are you too?" Master De Ruitt instantly became excited, this is too long a memory, I thought that the huge Rose Society, now there are not many people left, but I didn't expect that this famous and powerful patrol envoy in China is still his own family?
For a time, Master Deruitt's hands that had carved countless priceless jades and never trembled, but at this time they were also trembling slightly, and the people of the Rose Society not only did not drown in history, but had such an outstanding junior?
The Rose Society, naturally the former Knights of the Rose, the second-generation successor of the year, may have heard the secret rumors, or for other reasons, transformed the Knights of the Rose into an academic organization on the surface, and some of the forces turned from light to dark, thus avoiding that catastrophe.
On the surface, the academic organization, that is, the Rose Society, was once extremely prosperous, with many powerful children joining in to drink and have fun, and of course there were real art seekers or knowledgeable scholars, but later, such an academic organization could not escape the suppression of those in power.
Eventually, the great Rose Society almost vanished.
And Dereiter's former teacher is also a member of the Rose Society, where he spent the best time of his life, the teacher is one of the most important people in his life, and Dereitt also has a deep affection for the Rose Society, even when he joined, the Rose Society has been extremely declining.
In the years that followed, the Rose Society did not flourish, but more and more withered, although Dereitt had the heart to lend a hand, but after all, he was a master jeweler, at that time, far from today's status, and a master jeweler, famous or expensive, really want to play a role in turning things around, that needs power and money, and he is obsessed with jewelry, no intrigue ability, naturally difficult to help.
At that time, although he was Prince Ravi's nephew, there were many nephews, and he did not have his current status, so in the eyes of Prince Ravi, he would naturally not be taken seriously, and he could only do his best to help each other.
Now he has become a well-known figure in the jewelry industry, and his financial resources are enough, but the Rose Society has disappeared, and he has thought that he has completely disappeared into history, but he did not expect that the powerful patrol envoy in this kingdom is also his own family, and he still holds a ring symbolizing the identity of the president.
Leo was secretly happy when he saw Dereiter's excitement, he was right, he had seen the decoration and layout of this room of Master Dereitt, which was very similar to the layout of the former auditorium of the Rose Knights given to him by Master Moore, and the jade knife also had the mark of the Rose Knights.
Coupled with the fact that he reversed this result, with the help of the records in the data, he felt that he was at least seventy percent sure that this Master Dereitt was related to the Rose Knights, so he took a risk.
But fortunately, it was still worth it, looking at the eyes that flashed with faint tears and were full of a strong sense of intimacy, Leo still nodded and confirmed his identity, although he was quite resistant to this identity.
Then, Leo briefly described the identity of his grandfather, after all, the Rose Knights at that time were divided into two lines, civil and military, and the line of force was secretly hidden to avoid the liquidation of other kings, so Master Dereitt on the road of the Rose Society was also the grandfather who had never heard of Leo, and naturally he didn't know about Captain Moore.
Of course, Leo naturally did not inform Master Dereitt of the identity of the head of Moore, nor did he explain the origin of the ring in too much detail, but he also felt that Master DeRutt's feelings for the Rose Society were extremely sincere, and these masters who were obsessed with art were really extremely simple, especially this master, who had no shortage of wealth, fame, and was not interested in power, so it was no wonder that it gave many people a headache.
"I can't think of it......" Listening to Leo roughly talk about the Knights of the Rose, Master Deritt was also full of emotion, "They have been tempered too much compared to the people in our society. ”
At this time, Master Dereitt looked at Leo's gaze, as kind as a nephew, of course, Leo was a little secretly guilty, he talked about the past experience of the Rose Knights so much, naturally it was also to get closer to Master Dereitt, but DeRuit's such a simple feeling, he was still a little weak-hearted.
"By the way, you said before that you were in a dispute with the Crane family, what is going on?" Just when Leo was secretly thinking about how to bring up the matter of the Klein family again with the Master Dereitt in front of him, and not arouse the other party's disgust, Master DeRuiter took the initiative to bring it up himself.
"It's just curious, the Klein family seems to have been extremely financially strapped for a while, but before that, the situation of the Klein family has always been very good," Leo also said roughly, without revealing too many details, "With the background of the Crane family, it is very doubtful that there is such a situation suddenly." ”
"That's nature," but Dereiter chuckled as well, "I thought it was, they were suddenly poor, because they wanted to get an extremely expensive necklace, so to speak, a necklace of great value." ”
Yes?
The doubts in Leo's heart were even worse, this kind of big family, definitely no one would be hot-headed, they would pay such a big price, even if they really had the heart, they would definitely not be so hasty, and even in his guess, they might even receive relief from the Snake Worship Sect.
"Then weren't they prepared? I see that when the Klein family wanted to come up with this money, it seemed to be in a hurry, and many things were sold at low prices. Leo said with a frown.
"This matter, it is also more complicated, the name of the necklace, called Divine Grace Life Torrent, as the name suggests, is to delay aging for a period of time, the jewelry association at that time, when I received this task, it also directly alarmed me. Dereitt said with a little reminiscence.
