"It seems that these people are also quite smart. They know how to create misunderstandings in their thinking and put people directly in the light. There are some banned books hidden in the carriage to attract attention, but I don't know what the effect is?" Leo looked at the one they were eyeing. Caravan, talking to itself.
Sylvia asked, "What are we going to do next, dismantle them?"
"No," Leo shook his head, and then said with a smile: "Anyway, we are barely part of the same organization, it's fine if we don't help, it's not necessary to break them down, we just need to stand here and see if they can get away with it. ."
Although, facing the invitation of the black-robed men, Leo refused to continue to help them solve the case, but in fact he had another idea, and after the black-robed man left, he stayed with Sylvia in the name of rest. In the bedroom, let people not disturb them, in fact, they have left the apartment, easily avoided the eyes and ears of the guards of the academy, and walked out of the academy.
Without the influence of the energy jammer, the two of them each used their power to fall from the mountain to the book town below the mountain. After that, Leo searched for suspicious people and things in the book town through the mental network. The kidnappers were found by them.
Originally, Leo planned to find these people, create a little movement, cause the movement of the book town guards, and then use the hands of the book town guards to rescue the kidnapped Lucius scholar.
However, when his mental network checked the kidnappers, he unexpectedly discovered that among these kidnappers, the headed ones had traces of implants, but compared to the perfect implants on Joan , the implants on them more or less caused some mutations in the body.
This discovery made him temporarily change his mind, and secretly monitored the movements of these people. As he guessed, even if those people were very careful when talking, even if there were only their own people around, the content of the conversation was still using pronouns or metaphors. But Leo is still suspiciously analyzed from these riddle-like conversations, and these people are probably also members of that secret organization.
In addition, he also confirmed that these people kidnapped Lucius for Lucius's research on the beginning of the land. From some information revealed in their words, it can be known that the beginning of the land is related to an extremely important plan for the organization.
After learning this information, Leo decided to be a bystander temporarily, and also began to think about what to do with the notes he found from Lucius. After all, this matter is just a little too monotonous for that secret organization to plan secretly. The city's involvement might make things a lot more interesting.
Book Town's inspections of caravans and pedestrians are being carried out in an orderly manner. Although the inspection speed has been fast, it is still a bit slow for those who want to leave or enter the book town. What kind of drastic action is taken? After all, those Teresa Kingdom Legionnaires who have left the barracks to assist the inspection are not as polite as the book town guards.
At this moment, no matter how stupid people are, they can see that something big must have happened in the academic city. Otherwise, it is impossible to have such a big movement. Some people who are simply curious and some people with other identities People asked around to find out what had happened, and found nothing, apparently what happened in the academic city at the top of the mountain had not yet reached the foot of the mountain.
As the inspection of the book town became more and more careful and strict, the booksellers who were under surveillance by Leo and Sylvia did not seem to be nervous, and they did not have any extra actions. They lined up like other caravans around, waiting for inspection. .
Soon the inspectors came to the front of their team. The guards in charge of inspecting inspected the goods on the caravan very carefully. Once they found anything suspicious, they let the caravan unload the goods. As a result, they found several places. Hidden mezzanine, inside the mezzanine were found some prohibited books that were not bonded.
Printing prohibited books in Book Town is not a big problem, but printing prohibited books requires a huge surcharge. The amount of this surcharge may even be ten times or even dozens of times the printing price of the book itself, so Printing and smuggling prohibited books without permission in the book town has become the norm, and it’s okay if you don’t find them.
Therefore, when the caravan was found to have smuggled prohibited books, from the book town guard in charge of the inspection to the other caravans watching the excitement around, they were all staring at the number of smuggled books and the calculated amount of fines, and no one cared anymore. The others in the caravan didn't even pay attention to an ordinary middle-aged man who looked like a drunk sitting next to the coachman.
In this way, under the watchful eyes of the people who were gloating around, the caravan was very unwilling to pay a huge fine, then re-arranged the goods, and left the book town with a look of frustration.
Watching the caravan leave, Leo and Sylvia did not continue to stay in the book town, and returned to the academic city as quickly as possible.
After returning to the academic city, they did not immediately return to the apartment, but went to Lucius' research room.
Perhaps because all the materials had been emptied, Lucius's research room was not guarded, it was as empty as other idle research rooms. After Leo entered the research room, he took Lucius's The notes were taken out, put back in their original place, and then made a little movement, which attracted the attention of the guards of the academy who happened to be patrolling nearby. They watched the guards enter Lucius's research room to check the situation before leaving.
In the next few days, there was still no contact with the closure of the second school city, and various searches were carried out in an orderly manner. Although the people in the school city did not find the kidnapper and the kidnapped Lucius during the search, they looked for the kidnapper and the kidnapped Lucius. There were many other spies and spies lurking in the Xuecheng. These people had various identities, students, mentors, city guards, and even the cleaners who were responsible for cleaning. Two spies were found.
Most of these people are members of various True God Churches, and the management of Xuecheng is not surprised by this, and they did not execute these people with severe means, but just imprisoned these people secretly, it seems that they are planning to Use these people in other ways.
As for why they didn't disclose the identities of these people, and negotiated with the True God Church, and then used these people as bargaining chips, I thought it was because Xuecheng was very aware of the way of the True God Church. Even if the identities of these people were disclosed, the church The side will not admit it, but will accuse Xuecheng of framing, and use this as an excuse to do something against Xuecheng, so letting these people disappear in secret is the best way to deal with it.
In the past few days, neither Leo nor Sylvia paid any attention to what happened outside the apartment. Their attention was focused on the research materials of various stagnant and abandoned projects sent by the Xuecheng Project Committee.
The advisor of Xuecheng intends to formulate a research project. In order to obtain the support of Xuecheng, it must pass the review of the project committee. In addition to considering whether the project has potential value, this review is more than whether the new research project is consistent with the existing one. research projects overlap, especially whether there are corresponding abandoned projects in the past research projects.
Under normal circumstances, the project committee will not participate in the creation of the research project of the supervisor. They always act as a calm reviewer, but this time the situation seems to be a little different. The project committee will take the initiative to send someone to discard the research project. Some research project materials with the best value in the project library were sent to Leo and Sylvia's apartment, and they expressed their hope that the two would set up a research project team as soon as possible, which implied that no matter what research project they set up, they would pass the review.
This operation of the project committee completely stunned Bol. In his memory, no tutor has ever received such treatment. Even those tutors who have become famous in a certain discipline also need to submit according to the procedures. The research project proposal needs to wait for review, but Leo and Sylvia, the new tutors who joined the city, can get such extraordinary treatment, which makes him curious about their identities.
However, Bol was destined to be unable to inquire about any useful information. Even from his uncle, he only got information that Leo and Sylvia's knowledge was no weaker than any tutor in the academy. The only thing worth paying attention to is that Leo's record in Quanzhiqi was an unprecedented 100% victory, but he didn't think this would be the reason why the project committee gave the two of them special treatment, even if everyone in Xuecheng was keen on Quanzhiqi.
Although, I haven't been able to find out why the project committee attaches importance to Leo and Sylvia, but Bol is still very clear that this is a rare opportunity for him, so these days he is also trying his best to show his ability to do things, I hope to be able to join in after Leo and Sylvia have formulated a research project.
In fact, Bol didn't know that Leo had left him a place from the beginning. After all, compared to Joan and Penny, he could give Leo more assistance in the academy.
"What do you think of this project?" In the study room full of various materials, Sylvia handed a piece of material in her hand to Leo and asked.
"Research on the causes of corruption and mutation?" Leo finally looked at the cover, then quickly flipped through it, then shook his head and said: "Most of the content is conjecture, and the conjecture is wrong, there is no reference. value."
Sylvia said: "We don't need a reference value, we just need a useful reason. This research project has a big topic and involves a wide range of content. If we restart this research project, we can do many things. Use that as an excuse."
Leo listened to Sylvia's explanation, looked at the document again, then nodded and put it in several other project documents that were selected before.
In the past research projects of these Xuecheng, most of the research projects are stagnant projects. There are many reasons for the stagnation of the projects. Some of the supervisors in charge died, and there was no suitable supervisor to take over. Apply for abandonment and switch to other research projects. Xuecheng rarely abandons research projects on its own initiative, unless it is found that the research project is a fraudulent fund, or involves some prohibited content.
For example, Leo is now seriously looking through an abandoned research project. The data file of this research project is incomplete. Not only does it have no project name, but even the data in it has been artificially deleted and torn up. Most people take it. I am afraid that I will just throw it aside at will, even if I look at it, it is difficult to read any useful content from it.
However, after reading this broken research project data, Leo found some interesting content, and from these content, he can almost confirm that the owner of this research project data is definitely a member of a secret organization, Because in the content that is not deleted in this document, there is some information about using extraordinary creatures to cultivate implants, and then improving human physique and ability through implants, and he also found in this document an image that looks like It is the broken pattern of the imprint.
Although this broken pattern was deliberately smeared with black ink, Leo could still restore the complete shape of the imprint by analyzing the difference between the ink used in the imprint and the composition of the smeared ink.
"Pol, have you seen this mark?" Leo asked Bol after restoring the mark.
"I haven't seen it." Bol shook his head, and then said: "If you want to know the source of the mark, you can go to the eighteenth building on Red Roof Street and find Mr. Cormier, who studies marks, badges and totems. experts."
After Leo heard it, he was ready to let Bol lead the way, and went to the imprint expert with Sylvia to ask about the origin of the imprint, but when he was leaving, Joan, who was teaching Penny's swordsmanship, accidentally saw the person who drew the imprint. Zhang Zhi said in surprise, "Teacher, this is the holy emblem of the Primitive Church."
"The Primordial Church?" Leo was stunned, UU reading www.uukanshu.com questioned: "Why haven't I heard the name of this church?"
"I don't know the specific situation," Joan shook his head in a daze and said, "I just remember that when I was trained by the instructor at the Sanctuary of the False Heart, the instructor listed some heretical church badges, including this one. The holy emblem of the Primitive Church."
"Is it a heretical church?" Leo thought for a while and asked Boll, "If I want to look up information about a heretic church..."
Without waiting for Leo to finish speaking, Boll immediately gave an answer: "You can go to the restricted area of the Great Library, there should be a lot of materials stored there, but only the instructor can allow it to be viewed."
As a result, the group's purpose was changed to a large library in the city.
Although the blockade of the second urban area has not ended, the martial law in the urban area has been relaxed a lot. Scholars and students in the city can move freely. Except that they cannot leave the second urban area for the time being, there are not too many restrictions as usual.
After the group came to the big library, after the manager of the library checked the identities of Leo and Sylvia, they let the two enter the restricted area to check the materials, and they quickly found them from the rich books and materials. the information you want to find.
