Chapter 83 Making a decision

Watching the carriage and the naked man disappear at the end of the forest path, Leo opened the letter Adeline had given him before and read it.
The content of the letter was indeed nothing important as Adeline said. It mainly said that Nelson, Jason and the others were safe.
She also mentioned that Duke Devin's reaction to the indictment was very slow. This situation was very abnormal. She felt that there would definitely be big moves, so she asked Leo to be careful.
Anne was also cautious in nature and knew that letters were not very safe, so she did not mention anything in the letters that would cause trouble.
After casually destroying the letter, Leo left the botanical garden along the same route, found a carriage and got on it, heading towards the Xianyue Lake area.
The carriage quickly drove to the villa area of ​​Xiaxiangyue Lake. At the only intersection entering the villa area, it was stopped by the police on guard here.
After asking Leo where he wanted to go, he entered the guard post, wrote something and handed it to the colleague next to him. Another policeman took the written things and rode the horse prepared by the guard towards the interior of the villa area.
Run away.
After a while, the policeman came back and handed his colleague a note. After reading it, the colleague waved to the carriage waiting at the guard post, indicating that he could go in.
The driver, who was driving the carriage slowly along the inner streets of the villa area, said to himself: "Haha! I didn't expect that my carriage would also have the opportunity to come to Xianyue Lake District. I have to talk to those guys about this, they will definitely be envious.
Kill those guys."
"Are the guards here always so strict?" Leo asked.
The carriage driver also chatted: "It wasn't very strict before. Although ordinary carriages were also prohibited from entering and exiting, the control was very loose. Only slightly higher-end carriages could enter and exit. Then one day, the police and guards here suddenly became strict.
There are many, and every car entering and exiting needs to be carefully inspected. Speaking of what we have just calculated, they sometimes check the inside of the car. I heard that the reason for this is because someone sneaked into this area and killed
Some family members of powerful and high-ranking officials. However, these are just hearsay. No similar information has been announced to the outside world, and I don’t know whether it is true or false.”
The carriage quickly stopped at the entrance to the lakeside villa. After Leo got out of the car, he signaled to the coachman that there was no need to wait for him, and walked directly into the villa.
Just like the time she came with Anne, the maid was already waiting at the door. She looked at the place where Leo wore the weapon and frowned, but did not ask him to take it off. Instead, she turned around
He took Leo into the villa.
At this moment, Leo was no longer confused and surprised by some of the non-human characteristics of the maid, because he already knew that this maid was probably a type of Familia, and it seemed to be a semi-human Familia.
In the information on the black market, it is mentioned that the Familia are very arrogant, thinking that they are the favorites of the ancient gods and are of extremely noble birth, so they all have very arrogant personalities and will not be willing to be inferior to others.
However, what is very interesting is that Leo met two confirmed dependents who both respected a certain human being very much, and were even willing to become a servant. If the black market information is not recorded incorrectly, then something must have happened.
The serious things that happened to the family members made the family members change their previous arrogance and learn to bend down and compromise.
The moment he entered the villa, Leo frowned. Although it was the second time he had experienced it, Leo was still not used to the interference energy field in this villa.
"I'm very happy that you can come!" The old man's unique hoarse voice sounded in the villa. As the gears rotated, the sound of mechanical bites also came from the room. The old man arrived in his wheelchair.
In the living room, the smile on his face, although ugly, was sincere.
Because he had been vigilant beforehand, Leo could feel that the moment the old man appeared, he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of trust and closeness in his heart. This was not a psychic effect, but a kind of personality charm.
The power of the mind is at work.
Therefore, Leo was not prepared to stay here for a long time, lest he be further influenced by the other party, so he went straight to the topic: "I have investigated No. 9 Golden Oak Street and know what happened there. It is very interesting and I am also very interested.
I wonder now what you are looking for there."
"It's very simple, find a feather." The old man said a request that sounded very simple.
"Feathers?" Leo was stunned and asked: "What kind of feathers? Which kind of bird feathers?"
"No, no! It's a feather." The old man answered very vaguely, but he couldn't explain it more clearly, so he explained: "This feather is indescribable. As long as you see it, you will definitely recognize it."
Leo frowned and said, "What if I find other feathers there and bring them back to you..."
"If you really find the feather at No. 9 Golden Oak Street, even if it is not the one I want, you have completed the transaction and I will still give you the complete Gamore language." The old man knew.
Leo was worried about something and made his promise before he finished speaking, but then he added: "But such a thing should be impossible. There can only be one feather in No. 9 Golden Oak Street."
Leo couldn't help but ask: "You seem to know very well about No. 9 Golden Oak Street, and you even know what items are there."
The old man chuckled and did not answer.
Leo thought about it for a while and said: "The Xiangyue Lake area is a high-end villa area, and the Miria City Police Department has also deployed a lot of patrol officers and guards there. I need a pass that allows me to pass at will. In addition,
I may also need to go to the police station to check the investigation materials left by the investigation team back then, so I also need a permit."
"I can get you a pass." The old man thought for a while and said: "But you are an Englishman after all. It is not appropriate to enter the police station in a city under the French Empire to check the files. I also have an investigation report here, which is better than the police report.
The Bureau's copy is more detailed and I can show it to you now."
"It's okay." Leo could see that the old man was very principled in doing things, what could be done and what couldn't be done. There was an invisible line in his heart, and he would never cross that line for any reason, so he didn't
Make things difficult for others.
A sincere smile appeared on the old man's face again, he raised his good arm, stretched out his hand towards Leo and said, "This way we should have reached a deal."
"Yes." Leo reached out and grabbed the old man's hand and said, "Whenever I will help you get the feathers, when will you teach me Gamore language."
The old man shook his head and said: "No, I will teach you the Gamore language now. You don't have to wait until you find the feathers."
Leo was stunned and said: "You are not afraid, I..."
The old man smiled and said: "I may not be able to do other things, but you can tell whether a person is good or bad by keeping his promise and whether he can do it." As he said, he turned to the maid and said: "Gas
Qi, please go to my study and help me get the manuscript of ancient poetry written in the Gamore language and the investigation report of the joint investigation team that year."
The maid Vaschi obeyed the old man's instructions and turned around and walked towards the study room of the villa. After a while, she saw her appearing in the corridor holding two piles of information half as high as a person.
Leo stood up and prepared to help Vashqi get the information in her hand, but Vashqi glared back with the sternest look. It wasn't until she placed the information completely on the table in the living room that she turned around and looked at her.
Leo snorted coldly, walked to the corner and stood there quietly.
"When did I offend her?" Leo asked to himself.
"She just hates men." The old man said, looked at his lower body that had disappeared, and laughed at himself very openly: "As for me, I shouldn't be considered a man anymore, haha!"
After laughing twice, the old man felt embarrassed when he saw that Leo did not laugh along with him. He touched the beard on his chin, slightly concealed his embarrassment, then pointed at a pile of information and said: "This information is from that year.
You can take a look at the investigation team’s information now. I just need to review this ancient poetry manuscript and consider how to teach you the Gamore language."
Leo found a chair at random, sat at the table, picked up the information on the table, and looked through it.
The old man also came to the table, picked up the manuscripts on the table, flipped through a few pages at random, and rearranged the manuscripts according to the difficulty of the poems.
The two of them were looking through the information in their hands without saying anything, but they were looking through the information at about the same speed, which made Vasqi, who was standing quietly aside, frown.
The reason why the old man flipped through the manuscript so quickly was because the manuscript was all written by him, and he already had all the contents in his mind, and he could recall it just by flipping through it a little. But in her opinion, with Leo now
At this speed of flipping through the information, he was not reading the information at all, but turning pages randomly.
Vashchi, who didn't like Leo very much at first, looked at it for a while, and finally couldn't help but feel restless in her heart. She walked to the desk, pressed down on a piece of information that Leo was about to pick up, and said to Leo:
"Are you actually reading this information? How much have you taken in by flipping through it like this?"
Seeing Vashchi's angry look, Leo felt a little confused. He turned to the old man and asked: "Can your maid treat guests so rudely?"
"Don't burn this fire on me. I have never dared to treat her as a maid." The old man did not answer this question. It was more like avoiding trouble. He raised the manuscript in his hand high to cover his face.
live.
Leo looked at the old man's childlike behavior with some speechlessness, shook his head, and said, "I suggest you change your master, Miss Vashchi."
However, Vashchi, who was as precious as words, had no intention of talking to Leo and just looked at him with questioning eyes.
Leo shook his head helplessly, casually pushed the information he had read before in front of Vasqi, and said: "Pick any information and point out a paragraph."
Vashqi was stunned for a moment. Seeing Leo's confident expression, he was a little hesitant. On the contrary, the old man on the side who had not planned to intervene in the little dispute between the two had an interested look on his face. He took the initiative to take out a copy of the information and flipped through it casually.
Open a page, select a paragraph, and read the first sentence of the paragraph.
After hearing this sentence, Leo almost didn't think at all and recited all the content behind that sentence, which made the old man and the maid look surprised.
Vashchi also had a curious look on her face and tried to select an information and an interrogation document. As soon as she finished speaking, Leo's voice took over without any obstacles and recited all the following paragraphs.
.
Seeing that she had misunderstood Leo, Vasqi did not make any excuse for herself. She directly apologized to Leo and said, "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you! Please forgive me."
"It's okay, I understand." Leo smiled.
On the contrary, the old man beside him seemed to be deep in thought and remained silent.
After a while, he said with a smile on his face: "It's amazing that you have such a strong memory ability! It seems that the study plan I made before is going to be overturned. I will designate a new one based on your memory.
A learning plan that allows you to learn all the Gamore language in one day.”
The old man was very excited at the moment, as if he had obtained a toy he had longed for for many years. For this reason, he had to inject drugs twice to relieve the pressure that the excitement brought to his body.
Leo has no interest in considering what kind of study plan the old man should make. As long as it is related to memory methods, he is not worried at all. With the memory storage ability of the accessory brain system, even if all the written materials in the world are stored
Remember, it only occupies a tiny number of brain cells.
On the contrary, some of the contents in the investigation materials allowed Leo to see some information that was not found in the black market materials.
Among the information he obtained from the black market, there was also information related to the investigation team, but the information was not as complete as the qualifications he was looking at now. It was not known that the people in the black market thought that a certain part of the content was too absurd and deliberately deleted it.
, or for some reason even the black market cannot obtain this information.
All in all, it is the content of local folklore in the investigation data, which is not found in the black market. In Leo's opinion, the content of this folklore may be the most important part.
In this part of the folklore information, the First Quarter Moon Lake area once had a powerful country a long time ago. This country conquered all the surrounding swamp tribes, unified the entire Milia region, and built their capital in the First Quarter Moon Lake area.
The architecture of this capital city is so majestic and luxurious that even the legendary city of God cannot compare with it. For this reason, the king of that country is so arrogant that he considers himself a god.
However, their arrogant behavior offended the ancient god of Mount Dibia, and the god cursed them with powerful power, dragging the entire capital city and its residents into a place of eternal sighs at the end of their lives.
