Starting My Treasure Hunting In England
Chapter 49 The Monastery
With such doubts, Liang En and Pierce continued their search work. Unfortunately, this pen cap seems to have exhausted their luck in one fell swoop.
So in the next few hours, they only found five or six deformed bullet heads and broken shrapnel, a 50 Finnish Mark coin and a copper button that had been embroidered into a ball.
"The warhead is a standard 7.62mm Mosin-Nagant rifle bullet. As for the shrapnel, it was too shattered to see the original appearance." After returning to the vehicle with the pile of trophies, the two people analyzed it through the lights in the car. stand up.
"However, judging from the thickness of the shrapnel, it should be left behind after the explosion of small-caliber artillery shells. Considering that they were shot by 45mm artillery at the time, these shells most likely came from that armored vehicle."
"So we are indeed lucky this time." Pierce immediately put a smile on his face, and then pinched the silver pen cap with two fingers. "I think with this, we should be able to get the reward from that count."
"I think it should be -" Looking at the silver-plated pen cap that had been cleaned and shone golden under the light, Liang En fell into thinking again.
He really couldn't figure out why this thing that should theoretically be left by Master Dulis would point him to a location dozens of kilometers away in the city of Viborg.
"——Lawrence, Lawrence, what's wrong with you?" Finding Liang En suddenly looking at the golden pen cap in a daze, Pierce immediately shouted to him in a low voice, with a nervous look on his face.
"It's okay, it's just that this pen cap reminded me of something." After Pierce shouted, Liang En also woke up from his thoughts.
"What's the matter?" Pierce asked smoothly, but soon his face showed a thoughtful expression. "Could it be that you used your magical magic——"
"Uh - of course it's not like that." After Pierce said this, Liang En also realized the sequelae of the last time he was pretending to be a ghost, so he quickly shook his head and said. "But I'm thinking about one thing, that is, did Master Dulis really die here? Is there any other possibility -"
"Are you saying that the other party might have escaped?" Pierre asked with a frown. "But if the other party really escaped from this area, why didn't he contact his family afterwards?"
"Then there are more possibilities. Maybe the other party directly found a civilian lover and eloped with her." Liang En said with a shrug.
Of course, this is just a joke. After everyone laughed together, the two people really began to seriously analyze the records left by the previous group of people. Soon, they discovered a blank area left by the previous teams.
"Lawrence, your guess may be right." After checking the information he had read before, Pierce said to Liang En in a serious tone, "The other party may have really gone to the direction of Finland. "
The reason why he made this judgment was that after consulting a series of documents, Pierce realized that the other party had previously focused all his attention on this battlefield and the Soviet archives, while subconsciously ignoring the Finnish files. Condition.
As for why this happened, it was very simple. Since the Finnish side had given comprehensive help since the disappearance of the young master Dulis, the searchers subconsciously fully adopted the information given by the Finnish side.
Therefore, it was not until Liang En raised this point that the two of them realized that among the many search teams before, none of them actually went to Finland to actually investigate.
"Yes, so we can divide our forces into two groups tomorrow." Liang En said after thinking for a while. "You can find a way to check the records of all unidentified people who came off the battlefield recorded by the Finnish side since the disappearance of Master Dulis."
"how about you?"
"I'll go to Viborg tomorrow to take a look. Maybe I can find some valuable clues." Liang En pointed at himself with a smile and said, "You know, I always have some weird luck."
"I understand, just like the tires of the new group of cars we were on the highway exploded last time." Pierce made an OK gesture, "I hope we both have enough good luck tomorrow."
After breakfast the next morning, the two of them split up. Pierce went straight to Helsinki, the capital of Finland, through the earl's relationship to inquire about information about the unknowns on the battlefield, while Liang En drove straight to Viborg.
Vyborg is a very small city with a population of just over 70,000. So after pretending to circle this small city, he drove the car according to the light spot in his mind.
In just ten minutes, he followed a road that had obviously been abandoned for a long time and arrived at the edge of a monastery with only ruins left.
"So this is it!" After using the electronic map to map his location, Liang En quickly figured out what this monastery was about.
According to the Finnish military map he had previously obtained from the steward, the monastery had been requisitioned as a field hospital during the Winter War, and it ceased operations until they were forced to abandon Vyborg.
The reason why this monastery was abandoned is also very simple, because after Finland was defeated and ceded to Vyborg, almost everyone in the city chose to leave their homes and retreat with the army.
Naturally, new immigrants from the Soviet Union would not continue to use this religious site in the social atmosphere at that time, so it was directly abandoned.
Of course, the fact that this place was abandoned is also related to the fact that this is a Lutheran monastery, and Russians generally believe in Orthodox Christianity. Otherwise, the other party would not have chosen to start anew, abandon this monastery with a mixed brick and stone structure, and choose to rebuild an Orthodox church in the city center.
But for Liang En, the complete abandonment of this monastery is good news. After all, for countries where most people believe in religion, digging up churches is always a taboo thing.
After seeing no one around, Liang En jumped out of his off-road vehicle and walked into the ruins of the monastery with a metal detector and a shovel.
Obviously, the war that year also affected this monastery, so there were many obvious traces of shelling on the walls of the main building of the monastery and on the ground in the yard.
Fortunately, judging from the ruins of the monastery, whose main structure is generally intact, it is likely that this place was not used as a defensive building by both sides of the war at that time, so the overall damage was not serious.
Following the direction indicated by the map in his mind, Liang En quickly bypassed the core building of the monastery and arrived at a row of bungalows at the rear. According to the traditional layout, this should be the room where the monks lived in the monastery.
"It seems like this place has been used as a warehouse." After pushing open the room where the light spot was located, Liang En found that half of the dormitory was filled with stuff, most of which were similar to damaged furniture or junk. Things like fallen canvas.
"The next work will not be easy." Looking at the pile of garbage in the room, Liang En muttered with a breath, because he found that the thing he was looking for was at the bottom of the pile of garbage.
