"T, H, E, V, I..." Cao Gui rolled his eyes and quickly said the letters. Harry walked aside, attracting the attention of the security guards.
Soon, Cao Gui converted all the numbers Gwen revealed into letters.
"It's done, Cao, come back."
"receive!"
Cao Gui and Harry hurried back to the villa: "Gwen, what do those letters mean?"
Harry asked eagerly, the Osborne Group was in a big crisis, and he urgently needed the money to win over the Osborne Group.
"Seeing the treasured past, follow the shadows in time, beyond Pais and Stowe."
Beth read out the whole sentence, and then shrugged: "I don't know much about anything else, but Pais and Stowe know it very well, the two founders of the Liberty Bell."
Cao Gui looked confused. Forgive me, he doesn’t know anything about American history.
"Oh, it turns out to be the Liberty Bell." Harry's eyes lit up: "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry and go to the Liberty Bell!"
"No, no." Gwen shook her head: "There are two more sentences in front. If you don't understand them clearly, you won't be able to find them no matter how hard you look."
"So, what are the first two sentences?" Cao Gui spread his hands. If he could still understand it under the bright moonlight in front of the bed, these American things would be too difficult for him.
"I don't understand the previous sentence." Gwen also spread her hands:
"But I do know something about the second sentence. It should mean that if you follow the shadow of the Liberty Bell at a specific time, you can find something."
"So? What time?" Cao Gui asked, "Could it be the time when the Liberty Bell was cast?"
"Probably not." Harry shook his head: "The time when the Liberty Bell was cast was a period of time, not a specific moment."
"This time should have something to do with Sirens Dogood." Cao Gui sat on the sofa and thought for a moment. After all, the clue to the Liberty Bell was found in his letter.
"This..." Gwen frowned and kept thinking in her mind. Franklin was a politician and a physicist, but he was not an astronomer or a mathematician. There were few specific moments related to him.
How pitiful...could it be the time when the Declaration of Independence was signed?
That's not right, it's still a period of time, not a moment.
A look of worry flashed across Gwen's pretty face, and she looked a little anxious.
"About Franklin's specific time..." Beth thought for a moment, then quickly walked into a room and took out a small box.
"Quick, come and take a look." Beth took out a hundred-dollar bill from the box and shouted to Cao Gui and the others:
"This is an old version of the hundred-dollar bill. On the back is a picture of Independence Hall where the Liberty Bell is stored. Look at Independence Hall. There is a huge quartz clock on it. The hands on the quartz clock point to a time, and this painting
It was painted by one of Franklin's friends."
The three of them leaned over to take a look, but the scales on it were too small to see clearly.
Beth pulled out a magnifying glass and could barely see the time on it.
"14:20."
"What time is it now?"
Several people raised their heads, looking extremely excited.
Cao Gui looked at the time: "Exactly 14 o'clock!"
"Quickly, go to Philadelphia now...forget it, it's too late." The excitement on Harry's face turned into helplessness. They were in Washington, and the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall were in Philadelphia. Even if they took a plane, they couldn't get there in twenty minutes.
Arriving within.
"No, no, Harry, we can make it!" Gwen said, "If I remember correctly, this painting was painted in 1780. During that time, the time system we implemented was daylight saving time."
"Summer time?" Cao Gui was puzzled.
"Cao, daylight saving time is an artificial calculation of time, deliberately advancing one hour." Beth explained: "In other words, 14 o'clock at that time is actually 15 o'clock now."
Hearing this, Harry's eyes lit up: "There's still one hour and twenty minutes left, I'll contact the private jet now!"
With that said, Feng Fenghuo walked out and made a phone call while suppressing his excitement.
Cao Gui shrugged. Fortunately, there were three of them, otherwise Cao Gui would really not know so many twists and turns.
Half an hour later, the private plane took off and brought Cao Gui and the four of them to Philadelphia. Without saying a word, Harry asked the Osborne branch in Philadelphia to send a few vehicles and took the four of them to the Liberty Bell quickly.
"It's 15:13 now, there are still seven minutes left." Cao Gui looked at his watch and said, "Let's go up. It just so happens that the weather is good today and the shadows are very clear."
With that said, he took the lead and walked up to the clock tower.
The four of them carefully avoided the staff and sneaked around to the top of the bell tower.
"The shadow is over there, southeast." Beth whispered.
Several people walked over to take a look and found that the shadow was projected onto the wall of the building below.
"Follow the shadows at the right time, past Pais and Stowe." Cao Gui smiled and said, "Guys, it looks like we have found it."
"Let's go down and have a look."
Cao Gui led the three of them to the wall, slowly searched along the shadow, and finally found a small circular groove on a brick, with patterns in the groove.
"Hey...this pattern is similar to the pattern behind the Declaration of Independence." Gwen said in surprise.
"So, we are looking for the right place." Cao Gui smiled, took out a dagger, and pried off the brick.
"Huh? There's nothing in there." Beth went to the brick hole and looked, but couldn't find anything.
Cao Gui flipped his wrist and discovered that the brick was hollowed out from the back, and inside the empty brick was a pair of strange eyes.
There are actually six lenses on this eye, two large and four small, and the four small lenses are all movable.
"These glasses... are they for reading the Declaration of Independence?" Harry said hesitantly.
"Seeing the treasured past... those three sentences are all correct, so they should be correct." Gwen said with a smile.
"Let's go back and give it a try," Cao Gui said with a smile.
"OK, come with me." Harry said, "My father once bought a house in Osborne, and I lived here when I was a child."
Cao Gui's mouth twitched, he was indeed a capitalist, he actually had a house everywhere.
In the living room of a manor house in West Philadelphia, Cao Gui put on his weird eyes and looked at the Declaration of Independence again. The originally yellowed Declaration of Independence actually appeared in brilliant colors.
"Cao, what did you see?" Harry asked eagerly.
"It's right here on the wall... it's heere in the wall, with an extra e." Cao Gui moved his eyes downwards and saw a round clover logo... In other words, Odin appeared when the Meow Hammer was casting a spell.
symbols of.
So...is this a coincidence or intentional?
Cao Gui frowned and thought of a person...oh no, it was a dragon, Fafnir.
This man accepted the gold cursed by Loki and was forced to transform from a human into a dragon. Then he followed the maid Thor to the earth, lived with a programmer, and then became addicted to online games... ahem
, wrong, this one doesn’t.
Cao Gui scratched his head and felt a little uneasy... Could it be that they found the treasure and found an evil dragon from Nordic mythology guarding it?
At this time, Gwen took the glasses and put them on. She saw the clues on the Declaration of Independence and was stunned: "I know this place is Wall Street!"
"What's the meaning?"
"The former name of Wall Street was Hill Street. I happened to learn this knowledge when I was studying history some time ago." Gwen said, and then passed her eyes to Beth.
"Then... where is that icon?" Cao Gui asked, couldn't it really be Asgard?
"Oh, this icon." Beth took off the eyes on the bridge of her nose and suddenly said:
"That's the sign of Trinity Church on Wall Street, and my mother works not far from there."
It turned out to be the logo of the church... Cao Gui felt slightly relieved: "Then let's pack up and prepare to return to New York."
