Chapter 27 Something's Not Right
The confirmation and affirmative news found at UP was that Professor Jackson transported all the things that were brought down from Mount Busgesu to Mandner Manor, which is the manor where he lived in midsummer.
Not only that, they also found that in the next two years, during the period when the hospitalization of Minxia in Country M, Professor Jackson would use UP logistics to go to the Mandna Manor for trucks and trucks almost every once in a while.
Then the question is.
Where are those things in the manor?
Especially with so many buildings and plants in Busgesu Village, where are they?
The most important thing is that during the period of hospitalization in the summer, Professor Jackson fired almost all the servants and security guards at home, and did not hire workers again until after returning from the summer. This means that no one in the manor now knows that Professor Jackson has been transporting things back, and it is even more impossible to know where to place them.
Midsummer is extremely sure that there is no building on Boothgsu in this manor, including plants and trees.
This puzzled everyone.
Shengxia thought about whether it was her father who just put the things here temporarily and then shipped them to them. However, after checking several domestic logistics companies, there was no order from Jack Sheng except UP.
This means that Jackson only delivered things to the manor through logistics, but never shipped them out.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that he personally drove those things elsewhere, but it seems that he didn't have that time.
That's not a small project.
It was getting dark, and Guyu and Ling Dongshe had to continue living in the manor in midsummer. It can be seen that Midsummer also hoped that Guyu would stay for a longer period of time, and that kind of expectation was true.
After dinner, Guyu and Ling Dongshe walked out of the restaurant and waited for the servants to drive them to the supposedly in front of the yard where they lived in midsummer.
The summer followed her and she wanted to stay here for a while. However, it was drizzling outside, and she didn't even have an excuse to take a walk. She was in trouble for a while and didn't know how to speak.
Ling Dongzhi looked at the dark rainy day, and the street lights seemed to be shining and weak in such an environment.
"So many things cannot disappear at will."
Ling Dongzhi said, looking at the dark sky, as if she wanted to see through the darkness.
Guyu habitually uses infrasound waves to observe the surroundings in a dark environment, and the senses will be clearer and sharper than when it is dawn.
He heard the orange forest between the buildings in front and behind. He could hear the ancient castle building in the woods. Just looking at the Gothic appearance, you can tell that it was old and it was almost the same.
"In the midsummer, what era is the castle in the Orange Woods?"
Hearing Guyu ask this, Shengxia suddenly thought of how to stay with Guyu for a while, so she hurriedly replied:
"It's a very old building. Even my mother cannot accurately describe the age of its construction, but it has a history of at least five hundred years. It is a symbol of our family's honor.
So over the years, even though we are no longer used to living in pure stone tide buildings, we are still repairing them every year.
The entire castle is not powered up and is still illuminated with candle wall lamps, completely retaining its medieval appearance. How about it? Do you want to go and have a look?"
I don’t even look at the dark rainy days in midsummer. I go to an ancient vampire-style castle at night. Is this a date?
Guyu is not very interested, and he doesn't need to go to that place, so he feels furious. If he can go and see it during the day, it is considered a historical site after all.
So he smiled and said:
"Let's go see it tomorrow. It's raining today, and it's so dark, it's not suitable."
Mid-xia was a little disappointed, but she didn't give up and said:
"There are many candles inside, and they are all lit, and they are also very bright."
Guyu hurriedly changed the topic, and he really didn't want to go.
"In the midsummer, how far is the place we live in front from you?"
He has always been worried that he could not hear about changing clothes and taking a bath in midsummer evenings, but he has never been able to determine the distance between the two because of lush vegetation.
This summer is very clear, she said:
"If it's a straight line distance, my small courtyard is 618 meters away from the villa you live in."
Hearing this answer, Guyu and Ling Dongzhi couldn't help but look at each other.
Because Ling Dongshen is very clear, Guyu cannot hear the situation in the midsummer yard in his residence, but the infrasonic limit of Guyu is one thousand meters.
But why didn’t he listen to it even after 618 meters here?
Ling Dongzhi asked casually:
"Is there only the castle building between the place we live in front and this yard?"
Shengxia nodded and said:
"Yes, in order to maintain the previous environment of the castle, the houses and gardens behind were expanded on the original foundation. This is why the distance between the buildings is too far."
Ling Dongzhi winked at Guyu. Guyu understood in seconds and suddenly smiled:
"I'm not sleeping for a long night, I think we'd better go and see the castle!"
When the eyes lit up in midsummer, they were immediately written on their faces happily.
However, Ling Dongshe added:
"I'll go too, I like archaeology the most!"
The happiness of midsummer has been taken back halfway.
The change in expression made Ling Dongzhi feel sad.
"I~~~ I'm much better than Guyu!"
The night is thick, and the drizzle is filled with evil wind.
After entering the ancient sweet orange forest, you can see the older stone road.
As Midsummer said, the oldest here remains, and has never changed.
There are no street lights, you can only rely on flashlights to illuminate.
Three people held two umbrellas.
Is the person who lacks an umbrella in the midsummer? It’s really good! But she is in a bad mood now because Guyu and Ling Dongsha jointly hold an umbrella, which is too much.
After walking along the stone road for a few minutes, the dark castle appeared in front of them.
Tall but not majestic, Gothic architecture cannot be described in these two words.
If you have to find an adjective, it is rugged.
Seeing this ancient castle building, Guyu had something to say:
"Humans polished the rugged stones smoothly and then built a more rugged building. This is Western art. However, these guys actually joked about me for mixing coke in red wine! It's too much!"
After entering the overpass for a while, he finally didn't dare to defend Guyu on this issue. Instead, he quickly changed the topic and said:
"Let's go, I'll lead the way, let's go in and take a look!"
As he said that, he opened the ancient lock with the key, and pushed open the ancient door with a little force.
There was no harsh creaking sound. It seemed that the summer was not talking nonsense, and it was often repaired here.
In the middle of summer, I turned on the flashlight and found the candlesticks on the wall, lit them one after another, and the living room on the first floor suddenly became bright.
The decoration in the living room is not complicated or tall. Most of them are countertops of stone furniture and some corrosion-resistant Zhuomu furniture.
Ling Dongzhi looked at Guyu and asked:
"How about it?"
Gu Yu closed his eyes for a moment and said:
"Strange, I can hear it on both sides here."
His voice was very small. When Shengxia saw the two of them whispering, she was so angry that she was still worried, worried about Guyu's orientation.
Ling Dongzhi frowned slightly and said in confusion:
"This is strange. At first I thought it was weird here, but you can hear it at both ends here, so it is obviously not the problem here."
The so-called two ends naturally refer to the villa where you live in Grain Rain, the villa where you live in the Winter Solstice and the courtyard where you live in the midsummer.
The two followed Shengxia with confusion and watched her ignite the candlelights, and as they walked around.
There are no rooms in the first floor lobby, only such a huge hall, which is a place for gatherings.
As for the upstairs, the two of them had no chance to browse, but the summer was in full swing, and they were coming on their own initiative. How could they not accompany them for a walk?
I walked around the gloomy Gothic castle at night, and it felt like a chat.
Finally, after a quick look, the three of them left the castle.
However, just after the three of them walked out of the castle, Ling Dongzhi walked halfway and looked back, but suddenly shouted:
"Hmm? No!"
