"Is everyone okay?" Lawrence asked after releasing a [Detection Magic] to confirm that there were no other extraordinary people around.
"It's okay." "No problem." Saphiel and Fatina replied at the same time, and then everyone started to pack up the loot. Fortunately, this place itself is relatively remote and the security level is also very average. So after hearing the gunfire,
Not only did no one come to check, but they all stayed away. This gave Lawrence and the others enough time.
After searching the two corpses, they used the keys they collected to open the dilapidated warehouse known as the studio. After lighting an oil lamp hanging on the wall, Saifer quickly found their target this time.
"I think I found what we were looking for." When he came to the only table in the room, Saifei pointed at the pile of parts on the table and said. "Fortunately, we came in time."
It was indeed timely, because the pendant they were looking for had been disassembled at this time, and the crystal on the back cover had been thrown aside. Fortunately, the most important hair and enamel portrait of Miss Marshall inside were only scattered aside and were not removed.
Destroyed. Next to these things, there was something that looked like motor oil in a transparent glass beaker, which was constantly exuding a sour herbal smell.
"Why does he want to collect such things?" Saphire asked with some confusion. "Is it because he is a pervert? Just like when I was in school in Londiniam, the capital of Britannia, I heard that
They said that a pervert stole the students' clothes from the girls' school next door that were hanging on the balcony."
"Probably not." Lawrence released a [Detection Magic] again, and found a magic reaction behind a hanging oil painting. He stepped forward to pick up an easel and uncovered the oil painting covering the wall, and immediately discovered
Two notebooks and a Cathay-style scroll were placed in the wall hole, and the magic aura emanated from the scroll.
After putting on gloves and taking out these items, Lawrence wrapped them in a piece of canvas and placed them with the trophies he had just collected.
After carefully inspecting the studio, Lawrence and the others left here and rushed to Mr. Marshall's residence. Based on the conversation just now, they deduced that all the important things of that guy should be placed here. As for the things in his room, they probably
It can only be cheaper for others.
After all, the place where he lives is too crowded and the people are familiar with each other. It is not a good idea to put yourself in an embarrassing situation for a little money.
Lawrence and the others quickly took a carriage to Marshall's residence, and then met Dalton Marshall under the guidance of the butler and presented the dismantled pendant.
"Thank you! Thank you so much. Thanks to you, my niece's relic can be recovered." Dalton Marshall took the pendant that turned into Zero Hospital and touched the lock of hair with the ring on his hand.
, then he took Saifei's hand and shook it vigorously. "It's getting a little late now, so it might not be convenient for you to go back. Now I'll ask the butler to take you to the guest room to rest."
After saying that, he signaled the butler to Lawrence and the others to go to the guest room to rest, and then he hurriedly asked the coachman to hitch the carriage and drove towards his brother's residence.
After sleeping in the soft goose down quilt for a night, Lawrence got up early from the bed. By the time he finished cleaning up and rushed to the restaurant, breakfast was already ready, and the two ladies soon appeared at the table.
superior.
Today's breakfast was the most sumptuous meal Lawrence had eaten since he came to this world: grilled bacon, grilled mushrooms, and grilled tomatoes were placed on a white porcelain plate. There were buttered toast, a few sausages, and two poached eggs.
.Besides there is a pot of fruit vinegar and a small plate of dried cranberries.
Lawrence and Fatina both ate happily, but only Saphiel felt average. After all, she had often eaten this kind of cloth-style full breakfast at the girls' school during her four years in Britton.
"Okay, kids, you can take a look at the house that now belongs to you. My butler will go there with you with all the documents." Just after Lawrence and the others finished breakfast, Dalton Marshall said with a smile on his face.
He walked over to them happily and said, "In addition to the share you deserve, I also gave you a small gift. You can see it when you get there."
The property was very close to this place, and Lawrence and the others arrived there in five minutes on the carriage. After seeing the beautiful First Civilization Expedition Monument at the entrance of the street, Lawrence immediately recognized it as Eagle Fort.
One of the most famous commercial streets, Lime Street.
The street is not very wide and can only accommodate two carriages passing by. There are lush lime trees on the sidewalks on both sides of the road. Museums, libraries and some high-end clothing stores and jewelry stores are located in the buildings on both sides of the street.
.
The property Mr. Marshall gave Lawrence to them is on this street. It is a three-story building painted blue. Judging from the sign, it should have been the Marshall family's art store. Unfortunately, this building took a long time to build.
, so the style is a bit old. Overall, it is not as attractive as the surrounding stores with large glass windows.
After entering the store, Lawrence and the others also learned what Mr. Marshall's so-called gift was: in addition to a decoration budget worth up to 500 yuan, he also paid three years of property taxes for the house.
"Ha, we can finally get a foothold in this city." After the Marshall family's butler left with the signed documents, Saphire said excitedly to Lawrence and the others.
When signing the document just now, Saifei strongly requested that the property be jointly owned by the three of them, because she believed that the acquisition of the property was entirely due to the joint efforts of the three people. Her character and moral cultivation did not allow her to
Take more than your fair share at this time.
Moreover, Saphiel knew that even though she had the so-called aristocratic bloodline, she had gone to a good girls' school for further study. But this was the last benefit that her bloodline could bring her. Everything else would depend on it.
She works hard on her own, and this effort also includes finding some like-minded partners.
Saphiel is not that kind of good girl. She longs for independence and freedom. In this case, she refused to become the tool of the Coburg family. Naturally, this is equivalent to rejecting all other help from other families.
.
A powerful family like the Coburg family often provides a corresponding free education to the non-direct descendants of those families according to the level of the descendants of the family. In this process, these non-direct descendants will face various temptations
.
For these aristocratic families, if the temptation is successful, the family will have an additional tool man and the family will be directly powerful. If the temptation is not successful, people with such a firm consciousness will often achieve great results. It is good for the family.
Gathering together and leaving a relationship is likely to come in handy in the future. This is also one of the important reasons why these families can last for a long time.
So this is why Saifei is very happy now, because this property is not just a property for her, but a cornerstone for establishing a foothold in this big city.
"You're right." Lawrence nodded. He was also very happy to own a property here. After all, it is a bit inconvenient to do many things while living in the church. It would be much better to have a base of his own.
