Mystery: The Return of the Stars

After successfully making Lecturer Foulun angry, Hastur consoled him: "Maybe it's as you said, Professor Wayne just didn't say goodbye to us because he didn't have enough time."

"..." Lecturer Foulun didn't answer.

The two chatted at the door for a while, and Xio also opened the door and came over.

"I heard that Professor Wayne has been found?"

"Yes, thank you Ms. Xio for your help along the way." Lecturer Foulun recovered from his angry state of mind.

"Well, well, although I didn't rescue Professor Wayne personally, the necessary hiring expenses cannot be less."

"20 pounds, this is a reasonable price." Hasta gave a quite appropriate reward.

"Okay." Xio had no objection. After all, this was 10 gold pounds more than he expected.

Hastur took out two 10 gold pound notes and handed them to Hugh. He had to find a way to reimburse Professor Wayne for the money.

Lecturer Foulun also had the same idea, and he gave Hastur an "I support you" expression.

After getting the reward he deserved, Xio didn't wait long and rushed towards the basement.

In order to find out the secret passage in the basement, the police officers decided to use gunpowder to blow up the lounge and prepare to do it later.

Hastur had no intention of joining in the fun. Now that Professor Wayne was safe, he did not want to stay in the workhouse anymore.

Lecturer Foulen had the same idea as him, and the two of them simply freshened up and left the workhouse.

boom! boom!

Thick smoke filled the air, and the secret passage lounge was blown open. In addition to rubble, a hidden room separated by a stone door was also revealed.

Inside, Dean Dahn was dead, with his hands holding a wooden box filled with gold coins.

…

When Hastur finally returned home, the first thing he did was take a comfortable bath.

The sticky feeling is really uncomfortable. Fortunately, the weather is not too hot, otherwise I would definitely smell the sour smell of sweat.

After taking a bath and enjoying a carefully prepared dessert, Hastur felt like he was alive again.

"Lord Baron, Lord Greco has sent an invitation to invite you to tonight's banquet." Butler Neil came over at the most appropriate time to report the matter.

"Well, I'll be there on time."

"You'd better write a handwritten reply to show your expectation and importance for this banquet."

"Okay, I have to catch up on my sleep later, wake me up again during lunch."

"I obey your instructions."

Hastur got up and returned to the bedroom. He missed the big bed and soft quilt after two days of absence.

Only a few minutes after my head hit the pillow, I fell asleep.

East District, Professor Wayne's home.

After Lecturer Foulun went home to freshen up, he immediately rushed to his teacher's home.

"Ah, Folan, my good student, I'm so afraid I won't be able to see you!"

Professor Wayne gave Lecturer Foulen a warm hug.

"..." Lecturer Foulun's expression was still not very good.

"Folun, are you blaming the teacher?"

"Don't dare."

Professor Wayne sighed: "Well, after I separated from you that night, I happened to pick up a key on the ground that the guard accidentally left behind. This is such a perfect opportunity, how could I miss it."

"I didn't have time to say goodbye to you and tell you the truth. I quickly left the workhouse under the cover of night. In order not to be discovered, I walked up the mountain deliberately and made a wide circle. I didn't leave the area near the dock area until dawn."

"In order to prevent the plan from failing, I stayed in the mountain for another day and night. On the second night, I left the mountain overnight and returned to my home."

In order to convince Professor Foulun of his words, Professor Wayne took the initiative to roll up his sleeves, revealing his arms that were scratched by vines and branches.

"Is this really the case?" Lecturer Foulun was moved.

"Of course, God, Folan, is the teacher so untrustworthy in your eyes now?"

"..." Lecturer Foulun's anger disappeared. He thought for a moment and then frowned and said, "Mr. Hasta is not as easy to talk to as I am."

"For this purpose, I prepared a gift overnight last night."

"Teacher, where is my gift?"

"Ah, Folan, have you become so greedy now?"

"..."

Lecturer Foulun gave Professor Wayne a resentful look. He was still too soft-hearted, otherwise he should have had a share of this gift.

Hastur arrived at Professor Wayne's house at around two o'clock in the afternoon, and Professor Folan had already gone back to rest.

Professor Wayne said the same thing again, and Hastur listened quietly.

"Professor Wayne, I have a few questions that I need you to answer for me."

"Telling everything you know is a good moral character that I have always adhered to."

Professor Wayne smiled and invited Hastur to sit down and make him a cup of Earl Gray tea.

"Did you really make a new decision because you were lucky enough to pick up the key left behind by the guard?"

"No, after I heard you talk about your plan that night, I already made a decision in my mind. You are a promising nobleman and you should not waste your credit on such a thing."

"How did you hide it from everyone in the workhouse and go up the mountain to hide it overnight?"

“The workhouse patrol arrangements were good, but I had someone I knew who helped me at a critical time.”

"Vice Dean Bard?"

"Well, he's a better candidate than Dane to be the new director of the workhouse."

"Did you really hide in the mountains for a day and a night?"

"Of course not. I took a detour from the mountain to leave the dock area overnight and spent this time at a friend's house."

Hasta stopped asking questions, glanced at Professor Wayne, and said in a relaxed tone: "So, what gift have you prepared to compensate for my injured fragile heart?"

"You really deserve to be my student."

Professor Wayne stood up with a smile, walked to a bookshelf, and took out a thin contract paper from a book.

"This is a deed of your Campbell family."

Professor Wayne handed the deed to Hasta and said, "Don't show such a strange expression. Your father is a gambler. A lot of property has been exported from him. This is just a small part of it."

Hasta took the deed and scanned it. This is a deed for a manor dedicated to growing various flowers. Although the area is not large, it is at least worth tens of thousands of gold pounds.

The value of ten thousand pounds is not the most important thing. This deed is still the ancestral property of the Campbell family when they started, witnessing the Campbell family from humble beginnings to glory.

Voltaire Campbell may have forgotten this past event, but under the guidance of the old butler, he has always kept this history in mind.

"This gift is too valuable, I can't accept it."

"This originally belongs to your Campbell family."

"Since it has been exported, it is no longer considered to be the Campbell family's property."

Professor Wayne laughed, took a sip of black tea, and then slowly said: "Because you have a good butler."

Hasta's heart trembled and said: "Is it arranged by the old butler?"

"He knows that your father is very fond of gambling and will export all his property sooner or later. In order to leave some assets for you, the young master, he has thought of many ways."

"My relationship with him is pretty good , he asked for my help, and then arranged for me to gamble with your father. I lived up to his expectations and won the deed in one night. "

"Speaking of which, Voltaire's gambling skills and luck were too bad. I didn't do anything that night. I just flipped the cards and looked at them, and I succeeded in winning him."

Professor Wayne's thoughts flew back to the gambling that night, and he shook his head and laughed: "I have never seen anyone as unlucky as him. Emperor Roselle commented on this kind of person like this, 'not good at gambling but also likes to play'."

"..."

Hasta was silent, he always felt that way.

After a long silence, Hasta returned the deed to Professor Wayne.

"I think the old butler's agreement with you should be that you can help me keep it for a while, and when I have enough money, let me redeem it from you."

He knew old butler Robert very well. He was a wise old man. He would not use empty friendship to ensure that Professor Wayne could return the deed to him unconditionally.

Help him leave a part of the Campbell family's inheritance, and redeem it again when he has the strength. This is the arrangement he will make.

"The affection between you is really enviable."

Professor Wayne sighed. As a well-known law professor at Backlund University, he is also a rich man and has a very good butler.

But he is sure that his butler will not be as loyal as Butler Robert.

That is the person who dedicates his whole life to the Campbell family. The glory of the Campbell family is his wish.

This is a butler that can only be cultivated by a noble family with a long history.

"In this case, when you can graduate from me, I will return this deed to you, as a gift from me to you." Professor Wayne took back the deed with a smile.

Hasta chuckled and said, "Isn't this condition too easy?"

"Haha, so far only Follen can truly graduate from me."

"I think I have learned some of your essence."

"Oh, tell me about it."

"Flexible bottom line, shameless mentality."

Hasta's tone was very pleasant, and he added in his heart, "The shadow of order."

Professor Wayne is a very talented and ambitious law professor. He gave himself and Lecturer Follen two different teachings.

One is the positive side of the rules, and the other is the shadow of order.

Lecturer Follen is actually very simple and silly. He does not have the identity of a noble as protection. Learning to use the law to serve the mainstream dignitaries can make him live a good life in the future.

The knowledge taught to him involves many dark sides, allowing him to understand the overall structure of this society and the nature of the law.

Learning to use the law and use it to benefit himself, and then waiting for himself to change the law, this should be Professor Wayne's greatest hope for himself.
