The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

"Have you confirmed that the Holy Deed of the Unowned is in that manor villa?" When everyone was discussing, the old man on the head of the lumberjack family suddenly asked.

The room fell silent immediately, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, without answering.

The old man glared at the crowd angrily, and asked, "What's going on? No one can even be sure if something is there or not?"

A middle-aged man in the crowd stood up and said: "We have sent people to check the situation before, but they were not able to enter the house."

"What about the leaves? Did the leaves of the sacred tree respond?" the old man asked with a gloomy face.

A young man stood up and replied: "There was a slight reaction at the beginning, but then it disappeared."

"That is to say, we are discussing whether to attack a sanatorium that is protected by secret service security and military police and must be occupied by high-ranking federal officials before we have confirmed whether the holy deed is there?" The old man said angrily: "Are you crazy?"

Following the old man's anger, an adult monster lizard lying next to the old man also stood up, a pair of small cold eyes swept over everyone, and the snake letters that kept swallowing gave people a feeling that they would pounce on their prey at any time .

Everyone shut their mouths and lowered their heads, not daring to say anything.

The old man took a few deep breaths to calm down the anger in his heart, and then asked: "Who spread the news that the holy deed is in that house?"

Everyone looked at each other, and then started talking in a hurry, saying that they heard it from other people, but they couldn't remember who it was, as if suddenly everyone in the family was discussing it a few days ago This thing seems to be.

At this moment, everyone also felt that something was wrong. A woman suddenly seemed to remember something and said, "I remember that this topic started to appear after Patch from the Crowley family came."

"Patch from the Crowley family? What is that guy doing here?" the old man asked with a puzzled expression.

No one in the crowd could answer.

The old man said with doubts on his face: "That means that guy came to our house, and then he didn't see anyone or talk about anything, and left after walking around."

No one in the crowd could give an answer. They didn't even remember whether Patch from the Crowley family had been to the manor. Only the woman who spoke before remembered it, and that woman was not a member of the family, but a member of the family. The member's wife, just because she is very good at financial management, the family assets have doubled several times in a few years under her operation, so she has become the family management and can participate in the family's internal meetings.

"Could you have read it wrong?" the woman's husband whispered.

"Impossible, I'm absolutely right." The woman glared at her husband with displeasure, then pointed to a burly young man beside her and said, "I also saw that the third child talked to him for a long time. , as if discussing something."

As the woman's voice fell, everyone's eyes fell on the burly young man.

The young man also panicked, and immediately yelled at the woman, "Diris, are you crazy? You can tell such lies casually. When did I meet Patch from the Crowley family and grow up with him?" It's time to talk, the whole Truber Mountain knows that the relationship between me and that guy is close to meeting and fighting, how could it be..."

"Shut up!" The old man suddenly yelled at the young man, then looked at the woman and said, "Diris is right, you did talk to Patch, not just you, I'm afraid there are many other people in the house Everyone talked to him."

Some people couldn't help wondering: "Since we talked with him, why don't we remember it?"

"This should be the ability he got from the holy deed." The old man's face became extremely gloomy, then he looked at the woman and said, "It's just that he has counted thousands of times, but he missed Dilis, Dili Si doesn't know people in our family and is not affected by his ability, so he remembers that he came to our house."

"This damn guy dares to plot against us like this, we must teach this guy a lesson!"

"It's not just this guy, the Crowley family is also inseparable!"

"This guy is probably trying to make us offend the high-ranking federal officials, and then use the hands of the Federation to get rid of us so that we can take away our holy deed."

"Right, that is it!"

After realizing that he had become Patch's flag, some people immediately shouted angrily to settle accounts with Patch, and many people echoed loudly, even targeting the entire Crowley family.

"Shut up, everyone, what's the use of you shouting like that?" The old man yelled at everyone, and then continued: "You say it was Patch who did it, but what evidence can you produce?"

"Diris can testify." Someone whispered.

The old man gave the man a hard look, and said: "Idiot, Dillis is from our family, does anyone believe her testimony? And from the beginning to the end, only Dillis saw Patch appearing in our house, No one else knows, do you think anyone believes such a statement?"

Everyone couldn't answer for a while.

The old man closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then said: "No one is allowed to mention this matter again. All previous plans have been abandoned. Just pretend that you don't know that the manor exists, and do what you should do before."

Someone couldn't help muttering: "Is it just letting the Crowley family go like this? This is too aggrieved!"

"Get out, get out of here!" Hearing the people below say this, the old man's face became extremely ugly, and he shouted at everyone.

Everyone also knew that if they continued to stay, they might become the target of the old man's anger. They all lowered their heads and walked out, not daring to make any further rebuttals.

"Bain stays here." The old man suddenly stopped the patriarch of the family, and when everyone left, he said, "We can't just let this matter go, the Crowley family must pay the price."

"Then what should we do?" Although Baine is the patriarch, he rarely manages. Most of the time, he is a planner rather than a planner.

The old man suddenly said, "I suspect that the holy deed of the Venolin family is now in the hands of the Crowley family."

Bain was a little puzzled and said, "How is this possible? When the Vinolins' accident happened, the Crowleys were still in the mountains, and Patch was also on the side of Fort Josh. There was no time to come over."

"You are really stupid. The Crowley family didn't do anything, didn't other outsiders also?" The old man glared at Bain and said, "Don't forget, Patch's status in the federal government now, he can now come from the federal government." The government drives some people to do things, can't those people take the holy deed and hand it over to Paqi one step ahead of time?"

"That's right! Yes, that's it." Bain said with a dazed expression, "That's why he deliberately said that the holy deed has been taken away by outsiders, so as to clear himself of suspicion and divert our attention. To outsiders, and what he said is not wrong, and his subordinates are also outsiders, so even the Carmen family's ability to distinguish can't tell the truth of this sentence."

The old man on the side was also stunned when he heard Bain's speculation. He didn't think about it, but instinctively felt that the Holy Deed of Unclaimed should be related to Patch, but now after Bain's analysis, he felt more and more When you arrive at Patch, you will be the winner of the Holy Grail of the Unowned.

"Send the mouse out immediately and keep a close watch on Patch." The old man quickly thought of a countermeasure, and said, "The Crowley family is all in the mountain, if the Leicester is really in Patch's hands, then It must still be on him now, it has not been transferred to his family, and we still have hope of getting it back."

Bain nodded upon hearing this, and then asked: "Do you want to tell other families about this?"

"What are you telling other families? Are you planning to find another competitor?" The old man gave Bain a blank look, and then ordered: "Send someone to prepare a gift and deliver it to the owner of the manor, and tell him that I will visit you He, and the reason for meeting is to discuss the management and logging rights of the Vinolin family's forest farm."

Bain was puzzled: "Why do you want to meet that person? Isn't the forest farm we have enough?"

The old man looked like he hated iron and steel, and said: "Idiot! Think about it, since Patch deliberately focused our attention on that manor, he must want to use our hands to deal with the residents of that manor. That is to say, Patch had a quarrel with that person, and it was a deep one, but Patch didn't dare to do it himself, because that person must have an extraordinary identity. Right now we have to deal with Patch, so we can just take advantage of this No matter how bad the person's identity and ability are, he can be used to block some criticisms from the federal government, so that when we deal with Patch, we don't have to worry about his position within the federal government."

Bain repeatedly said yes after hearing this.

With the arrangement of the old man, things proceeded in an orderly manner, and some original action plans for the convalescent manor were also cancelled, and the people and animals surrounding the manor also returned to their family's residence.

And their actions made Patch, who was secretly watching, feel a little puzzled, but he didn't go to this lumberjack family to test, but chose another lumberjack family to guide, so that those lumberjacks began to pay attention to the convalescent manor .

Almost when Patch went to other lumberjack families to confuse and guide, a gift and a letter of worship were placed on Leo's desk by the butler.

"The Luffy family?" Leo looked at the greeting card and said, "Josh Luffy from the Luffy family is going to visit us tonight. I remember that the Luffy family seems to be one of the lumberjack families, right?"

"Yes," Sylvia nodded, picked up the gift and opened it, and said, "The ability of the Luffy family seems to be to control animals. The beast incident encountered in the manor before is probably related to the Luffy family." , It's just that they didn't continue to send animals here, but came to see us by themselves, which is a bit strange. Hmm!" She was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Their gifts are really valuable."

After speaking, she placed the opened gift on Leo's table.

I saw that the gift was a sapphire that had been carved and polished. The gemstone was about the size of an eyeball. The most rare thing was that there was a red mark in the center of the gemstone, which looked like a pupil, which made the gemstone a little more than other gemstones. charm.

Although such a gem is nothing in the eyes of Leo and Silvia, it is a priceless treasure in the eyes of ordinary people, and it is not cheap to use it as a gift.

Sylvia guessed: "I'm afraid they have investigated our situation and know that we have special security guards to protect us. They thought we were federal officials who came here from the capital to recuperate, so they didn't dare to be tough, they could only be soft. Exchange something else for the Karita magic contract."

Leo thought for a while and said, "It's good to meet him, maybe we can learn the secrets about their lumberjack family from him."

"I think so too." Sylvia agreed.

So, Leo quickly wrote a reply letter and asked someone to send it back to the Lufu family.

In the evening, a carriage drove to the gate of the convalescent manor. The housekeeper who had been waiting here for a long time stepped forward, saluted the old man who got off the carriage, and then led him to the small garden outside the manor.

"Hello, Mr. Leo," the visitor came to the two people sitting in the gazebo in the small garden, stretched out his hand to Leo, and said, "I'm Schobert from the Lufu family."

"Hello, Mr. Schobert." Leo stood up, shook the other person's hand, then motioned the other person to sit down freely, and then asked, "Did you come to see me for that forest farm?"

"That's just one of the reasons." Schobert didn't beat around the bush, but went straight to the point, and said, "Does your Excellency have any grudges with Patch from the Crowley family?"

Leo and Sylvia were stunned for a moment, feeling a little confused about Schobert's topic. In their opinion, the other party should pay more attention to the Carita magic contract, but they didn't expect it to involve Patch Crowley .

However, neither of the two showed any abnormalities, and Leo also followed the other party's words and said: "There are some small conflicts, but Mr. Patch has come to the manor to explain it two days ago, and the conflict between us has also been resolved. gone."

Schobert had such an expression on his face, and then said earnestly: "I'm afraid the resolution of the conflict is just your wishful thinking. I'm afraid Patch is still brooding, and even plans to do something to the two of you."

Leo pretended not to move and said, "Mr. Schobert, what do you mean?"

So, Schobert found Patch to them, saying that there was a treasure that their family had been looking for for a long time in the convalescent manor, and asked them to come and get it when things were compiled. To put it simply, it was Patch Trick them into pawns to deal with Leo and Silvia.

After listening to Schobert's words, Leo and Sylvia glanced at each other again, and saw the smiles in each other's eyes. They both realized that they had guessed wrongly the purpose of the Luffy family's visit to them, and at the same time realized that This is a good opportunity for them to infiltrate the Lumberjack family.

"Your Excellency's words are too surprising and unbelievable to us. Mr. Patch is not like the kind of person you said. He is very sincere, not like the kind of person who says one thing and does another. The person who is playing tricks." Leo pretended to be hesitant, and said, "Why do you make me believe your words?"
