Cummins Street in Prague is nominally a street, but the narrow road can only pass a carriage, damaged street lights that cannot illuminate, garbage on the ground, and homeless people lying everywhere on the street, all tell the world that this is what it is.
Better than the slums.
There are also very few shops here, except for a few grocery stores and cheap clothing stores, and there are bars with unbearable ambience.
In the evening and dusk, the people returning home went home like migratory birds, and Mr. Stella, like the crowd, strolled on the way home.
"Hello, Mr. Tesla."
"Hello, Mr. Ankes, I wish you a great business today."
Tesla greeted people he knew and walked home. Some people gave him small gifts on the way, but he politely declined them all.
Tesla is also considered a celebrity here. Although he moved here not long ago, he still looms large here because he is the only college student living here and a student at Charles University, the first university in Central Europe. Although he is only an auditor.
, but for the lower-class people living here, it is still so out of reach. So every time he goes home, he will get everyone's kindness, and he has successfully become the most hated person by the children here.
Speaking of which, Tesla was lucky to live here. He used to live in a better place than here, but unfortunately it was robbed and ransacked, so Tesla had no choice but to move here.
Although the living environment here is poor, the people are pretty nice, so he is still used to living there.
After arriving at the building where he lived, he opened the apartment door and checked the mailbox to see if there was any letter from him. Tesla went upstairs. However, the occasional creaking sound from the corridor floor made Tesla feel that he might need to go back.
Talk to the landlady. The corridor should be repaired.
"Crunch."
Tesla opened the door of his room and had a clear view of the room. Like most bachelors, Tesla's room was messy, with garbage discarded everywhere, smelly sheets, and messy desktops all showing this.
.
Throwing the books in his hands on the bed, Tesla lay down on the only chair to take a rest. Although he was a little hungry now, he planned to wait and see if Mrs. Clotte downstairs would bring it.
As a small gift, he likes the cakes made by this lady the most, they are so delicious.
Okay, I won’t pretend anymore. The real reason is that Tesla has to run out of money and he must save money. At present, he can no longer maintain three meals a day unless he stops being an auditor. But this is something Tesla cannot do.
Acceptable, so I can only think of ways from other aspects.
The current embarrassment made Tesla feel a trace of regret in his heart. If he had known that he would be in such a mess for money, he should have agreed to the Italian's conditions. Although the conditions offered by the other party were somewhat ridiculously high, he could still give it a try.
Maybe the other person is not a liar.
Tesla was thinking in his mind when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside. The wooden corridor was like this. The slightest movement could be heard in the room. Tesla had been here for so long and was already familiar with it. As soon as he heard it, he
I knew it was the sound coming from hard leather shoes, and the footsteps got louder and louder, and stopped when they reached his door.
"Ta-ta-ta~"
There was a knock on the door, which surprised Tesla. He didn't have many friends in Prague, so who could come looking for him?
Tesla opened the door and a man in a dress and top hat appeared in front of him.
"Hello Mr. Tesla, we meet again. It's really hard to find you here."
The visitor took off his hat, and Tesla recognized the visitor. This was the visitor from Italy.
Seeing Domingo in front of him, Tesla asked curiously. "Hello, Mr. Domingo, what do you want from me this time?"
"Can you invite us in?"
Following Domingo's words, Tesla discovered that there were two similarly dressed capable men standing on both sides of the door.
When he thought that he had nothing to worry about, Tesla moved away from the door. "Then please come in."
As the three of them walked in, they couldn't help but frown when they saw that there wasn't even a place to sit in Tesla's room.
"Mr. Tesla, your life is really simple."
"Ahem~, I haven't cleaned it for a long time, it does look a bit messy."
Domingo, the leader, didn't care about this. No matter how he stood like this, there was really no way to go to this place. In order to find Mr. Tesla named by His Majesty, Domingo found this place after a hard time.
.Thinking of the task assigned by Carlo, Domingo did not dare to neglect and immediately explained his purpose.
"Mr. Tesla, we are here for only one thing this time, and that is to invite you to Italy. This is a personal letter from His Majesty Carlo to you, and the reasons are all written in the letter."
Domingo then took out the letter written by Carlo and handed it to Tesla.
Tesla glanced at the pattern on the letter, then took it and opened it and read it. It was an invitation letter. In the letter, Carlo described his plan to build a large electrical research center and invited Tesla to do preliminary work.
Moreover, in the letter Carlo also promised to give him a high salary of no less than 2,000 lire per month.
Such promises and treatment made Tesla's heart flutter. Although he didn't understand why the Italian Emperor Carlo valued him so much and the two had never met, his recent experience made him interested in meeting a friend of the king.
Have a good understanding.
However, although Tesla had agreed in his heart, he could not show it too obviously in terms of face. After all, he still wanted to be shameless. So after reading the letter, Carlo spoke.
"I am very grateful to His Majesty Carlo for taking a fancy to me. I am honored for this..."
As soon as Tesla spoke, Domingo's expression changed slightly, because he had heard this before, and it seemed that Tesla wanted to reject His Majesty's kindness again, but fortunately he was prepared.
I saw Domingo making a gesture behind Tesla's back, and the two capable men behind him immediately rushed forward. Tesla, who was about to say that he had decided to accept the invitation, was thrown to the ground. Then, before he could speak, a
A man covered his mouth and nose with a pungent-smelling handkerchief, and within two minutes Tesla passed out. Before he passed out, his only thought was that he had been fooled, and these people were either liars or kidnappers.
.
After finishing all this, the three people immediately packed the Tesla in bags, carried it to the carriage waiting outside the door, and then drove away.
No one was alerted along the way. Only Domingo sent a telegram to the post office using a code, which translated into: Your Majesty, Truss has been captured.
