To Four Thousand Years Later

...You said Carlo was killed? "

In other words, Leonardo, who was sketching, was taken aback for a moment. He looked up unexpectedly.

This was something he hadn't expected. That old engineer should be an important link in Francesco's subway plan. After all, the term "underground railway" is too whimsical. Even though Francesco has a powerful capital from the Pazzi consortium behind him to do it alone... But he is not the first heir of the Pazzi family after all.

The report is that there is no construction plan that can be obtained. Or to put it in a convincing excuse, Francesco will not only be hindered and attacked by other heirs in the family, but he will also not get the support of the Florentine government. After all, to build the underground railway, the slums in the North District need to be demolished first. And this will inevitably lead to unrest among the poor and refugees, and even strong resistance from other factory owners and businessmen in Florence. To suppress this resistance and force construction, pressure must be exerted from above. Without Carlo, it would be difficult for Francesco Get the corresponding support from the family - even if he is actually very popular and powerful in the family. For outsiders, fame is often more important than ability.

After all, once this decision is made, it means that the mayor and the police chief will be tied to Francesco's chariot. If one day, Francesco is liquidated within the family, the two of them will naturally to be dealt with as responsible.

Of course, the construction of the subway will indeed cause great hidden dangers to the rule of the Medici family. But also because of this, they dare not forcefully group the ruler of this country without the endorsement of the engineer... or the blame. Piero de' Medici. His surname is not Pazzi.

"So Francesco shouldn't have done anything to Carlo.

Leonardo frowned in thought, and explained in a low voice: "To put it simply, the killing of Yi Carlo may directly lead to the complete collapse of the subway plan.

"But he was indeed killed. It happened just now, teacher." Michelot said in a low voice: "And. His eyes were gouged out... just like those corpses without eyes."

What? After hearing the news, Leonardo was taken aback.

I also thought about it, and after a while, I asked cautiously: "Did Carlo's eyes be gouged out after his death?" Was it just gouged out like this? "

"have no idea.

Michaelot shook his head: "Because no one saw the murderer.

Hearing this, Francis, who was leaning against the window and playing with his fingers, also leaned over with great interest.

He teased Michelot, and said in a booing manner: "Tell me, Michelot. What is this saying?" Michelot just lowered his head and did not answer his words.

Leonardo on the side said warmly: "Tell me the information you got. It's okay even if it's wrong... Tell me your own speculation too."

Michaelot paused for a moment, and finally raised his head.

He looked at Leonardo with those habitual wandering eyes, and quickly lowered his head again.

"At that time, the people sent by the Florence Police Department had just left the North District. They should have come to investigate the corpses without eyes. After all, this was a serial murder case, and it was... quite bizarre. You know, those rich and rich people like this It's a story that sounds so bizarre. It's even in the papers, it's said.

Francis looked surprised.

"It's normal, Francis," Leonardo said casually, "because Carlo's own brother is the chief of the Florence Police Department.

"That's not to say that even a worker can't be taken away." Francis shook his head again and again: "The newspaper and the high-ranking people need to explain. At this time, the workers who dug up the corpses are the best material to divert attention. Regardless of whether they can provide information, the best way to deal with such unsolved unsolved cases is to "only do what is necessary"

Do all the things that should be done well, and don’t do any extra things other than that, so that you can be consistent with most people. This is the best way to prevent losing the pot. Even kids from black areas. This is the rare kindness in Francis' heart. In the next moment when the room fell silent, the room in the back room was suddenly pushed open, and a cold and crisp female voice came: "I also have some information about this matter."

Suddenly hearing the voice of an outsider, Michelot straightened his upper body nervously, hid his left hand under the table, and raised his eyes vigilantly to look over there. But a rippling smile appeared on Francis's face immediately. He immediately greeted her enthusiastically, wanting to salute her face-to-face: "Ms. Phoenix! You are already awake, and I was worried that the noise here is too loud, waking you up...

…I can do without sleep, boy. "

Phoenix just glanced at him, reached out and touched his head, then patted his shoulder, motioning him to step back. Forced by the strong aura of Phoenix. Francis unknowingly took two steps back. Then he suddenly realized, reached out and pressed his hand on his forehead in frustration, Phoenix moved the fruit on the table aside, sat down on the table, raised his legs and looked at Leonardo: "I Just received a message...from a very good person we trust.

Is it Baimon?

So Phoenix picked up an orange, peeled it and said, "He told me that the mastermind this time should be the Order of Roses.

"Because they need human eyes...to make a potion called 'Moon's Blood.

"The only function of this potion is to calm people's minds, eliminate their desires and distracting thoughts in a short period of time, and concentrate their attention."

"Sounds very good. Phoenix shook his head: "This was originally a potion developed by the True Red Alchemist Association. The reason for their initial birth was that they needed an auxiliary medicine to calm themselves down and quickly enter the research state, but because of the strong! side effects, it has not been popularized. "

"What side effects?

"Severely hysterical," Phoenix replied, "if it is taken for a long time, it will also shorten the life span.

"And the one who brought it to the Order of the Rosary...well. Speaking of which, Phoenix hesitated: "He used to be the founder of the Rose Cross, and he was resurrected in this era, only to find that they have changed. So he left the order in disappointment, and founded a new organization against the Order of the Rose, the Golden Dawn, in the name of an apostate.

"You probably know who he is. His name hasn't changed, it's just pronounced a little differently. And his name now is 'Aleister Crowley.'
