"Sorry, I don't think it can help you. If you are interested in research in this area, you can apply for funding and establish a project yourself." Lucius, who is not used to communicating with people, clenched the rosary in his hand and watched vigilantly. The few people in front of them blocked their bodies at the door of the project department and said coldly.
It's a pity that the people who came here have no intention of leaving at all. Two of them shot at the same time, one grabbed Lucius' arm, and the other hit Lucius' neck artery hard.
Because Lucius stayed in his research room all the year round to look up various materials, even if he was eating, he was sent by students, so Xuecheng's passive exercise was equivalent to a fake, his body was much worse than the average person, facing two Kong Wu A powerful young man attacked, and he didn't even have the chance to resist.
What's more, the person in front of him is also an acquaintance to him, and he is a colleague. Although the relationship is not good, it will not be bad. He never thought that the other party would attack him.
In this case, Lucius fainted directly to the ground, unconscious.
The moment Lucius fell to the ground, the two young men who had stunned him moved him to the side in a well-trained way, then quickly took off his clothes, and took some things to give him make-up. Soon he turned from a thin middle-aged man into an old corpse.
After doing all this, the two young people put it into the prepared body bag, then sorted out the clothes they had taken off before, and put it neatly in the wardrobe of the research room, and put the identity badge. Putting it on the table, he took out a pre-written letter and put it aside. The content of the letter was roughly that he found any clues about the first dean of the academy and needed to go to another country to confirm it. The handwriting on the document Lucius wrote on the desk was identical.
While the two young men were dealing with the unconscious Lucius, several other middle-aged men with mentor badges on their bodies walked into the research room and quickly flipped through the research room's materials.
It's a pity that their luck is a little bit bad. Until Lucius has been completely dealt with over there, they still haven't found the information they want.
Although they couldn't find the information they wanted, those people didn't dare to stay any longer, because they knew that Lucius's students would come here to deliver meals to him soon.
So, they resolutely gave up the search, simply sorted out the information in the research room, cleaned up the traces of their search for materials, left the research room, and then moved Lucius, who was disguised as a corpse, into the prepared one. The trolley that came to carry the experimental corpse left Lucius' project research room.
Not long after the group left, Lucius' students walked through a garden in the middle of the street with the lunch prepared for him, and walked towards his office, but this time he was not alone. Hughes delivered the meal, and five people followed him. These five people were Leo and others who had just joined the academy.
Before, on the giant energy jammer, Leo and Sylvia discovered that Rupert Fitz's name was secretly engraved in the many patterns on the surface of the device in the form of swashes, and they had already determined that Rupert Fitz's name was secretly engraved on the surface of the device Fitz is inextricably linked to, and intrigued by, the establishment of this academic city.
Afterwards, they learned from Bohr that this device had existed since the beginning of the construction of the academy, and indicated that the energy jammer might have something to do with the mysterious first dean of the academy, and there happened to be a nearby one specializing in this kind of device. research scholar, so they asked Bohr to take them to meet the scholar and see if they could find some useful information from him.
Coincidentally, on the way to the scholar's laboratory, they happened to meet the scholar's student who brought him lunch, so they went together, and on the way, Sylvia also took some notes from the student's mouth. Some information about the man Lucius.
Although Bol called Lucius's title as a mentor, in fact, his mentor's title was only the lowest-level scholar mentor, and most people in the academy preferred to call such people senior scholars.
In Xuecheng, as long as a research project is established, it can be called a mentor. However, in the eyes of all Xuecheng scholars, only scholars whose projects have passed the application for Xuecheng funding and established research laboratories in the third, fourth or fifth urban districts can be called mentors. They can be regarded as real Xuecheng tutors. Otherwise, those so-called tutors who have obtained capital investment from other places and established laboratories and research laboratories in the second city are only senior scholars.
Lucius is such a senior scholar, because although the research project he is engaged in is very popular in the city, attracting a large number of curious scholars and students who are interested in the history of the city, but the first dean of the city is unraveled. The research on the mystery of the identity of the city is pointless to the management of the city, because that is already a thing of the past, and focusing on the present and the future is what scholars like them need to do, so basically this kind of research project is difficult to learn. Approved in the review of research funding within the city.
However, even if the Xuecheng does not care about this research, it will not create obstacles for those who study the history of Xuecheng. Instead, it will provide some assistance, such as matching these research projects that have not passed the funding review, and obtain from the outside. Capital investment to establish a research laboratory.
The source of funding for Lucius' research laboratory came from the grand duke of a small remote principality, and the grand duke also invested in several other projects that also studied the identity of the first dean of the academy.
The reason why this grand duke was so interested in the identity of the first dean of the academy was because he felt that his ancestors were the first dean of the academy, and the reason for this conjecture was that his family The badge was the identity badge of the first several deans of the academy, and among those deans, except for the first dean, the identities of the others were very clear, and there was no doubt from birth to death.
"What is the name of the Grand Duke?" Leo suddenly interrupted and asked after hearing about the Grand Duke.
Lucius' student replied: "Louis Fitz, that archduke is called Louis Fitz."
Hearing the name, Leo and Sylvia glanced at each other, but didn't say anything.
The group soon came to Lucius's research room. Lucius' students signaled Leo and the others to wait at the door for a while. He needed to ask Lucius for instructions before he knew whether Lucius would like to see them.
Then, he pushed the door and walked in. After only two steps, he found that the research room was empty, so he stopped, looked around suspiciously, especially behind the bookshelves, and shouted a few times. Lucius mentor.
After no one responded, he walked to the desk and saw the instructor badge and message on the desk, so he immediately put down his lunch, picked up the message and looked at it, then walked to the door, looking towards Lei apologetically Ou and the others said: "Sorry, Mentor Leo and Mentor Sylvia, you may have come here for nothing, Mentor Lucius seems to have found some new clues about the first dean of the academy, and has now left the academy. already."
After listening to the student's words, Leo and Sylvia expressed regret, and then asked the student to inform them when Lucius returned.
When they were about to leave, Leo suddenly stopped and turned his head to look at a corner on the ground not far from the door, where he saw an old rosary with a holy emblem of the Spirit of Knowledge hanging on the rosary. , because the corner is in shadow, you can hardly see the rosary if you don't look closely.
Leo looked at the dust next to the rosary thoughtfully, and then asked the student, "Is Mr. Lucius a believer in the Spirit of Knowledge?"
The student nodded and said, "Yes, he is a very devout believer of the Spirit of Knowledge."
Leo walked to that corner, bent down and picked up the rosary, handed it to the student, and asked, "Does this belong to Mr. Lucius?"
"Yes, it is the rosary that the teacher often has in his hand." After the student took the rosary, he immediately recognized the origin of the rosary, and wondered, "Why did the rosary fall to the ground?"
"I don't think your mentor left voluntarily." Before Leo gave the answer, Sylvia had already responded, and turned around and walked to the door of the research room, pushing the door open and saying: "We can Would you like to go in and have a look?"
Although it was an inquiry, Sylvia obviously did not consider whether the student agreed or not, so she walked directly into the office, and Leo and the others followed.
Lucius' students obviously haven't recovered from Sylvia's words just now. Seeing that Leo and the others have entered the research room, they hurriedly followed, trying to stop them, saying: "Wait, you guys Wait a minute, this is the private research room of Lucius, and according to the city's regulations, you are not allowed to enter."
Joan, who understood the meaning of Sylvia's words, stretched out his hand and grabbed the student, and said, "Your mentor Lucius has been kidnapped, and what are the regulations of the school city, if I were you, now Go to the city guard department immediately."
"Ah? Kidnapping?" The student was stunned, and then asked, "How do you know it was kidnapping?"
Sylvia glanced over the table, pointed to the mentor badge on the table, and said, "When your mentor goes out to collect information, is it necessary to take off the mentor badge and leave it in the research room? ?"
The student also seemed to realize something when he heard the words. He ignored Leo and the others when they broke into the research room. Instead, he ran out of the research room in a panic and ran towards the nearest city guard post.
Leo quickly looked at the situation inside the research room and said solemnly: "It should be done by the novice, leaving too many traces. They were divided into two groups, one group dealt with the Lucius scholar outside, and the other A group of them went into the office to look for things," he said, and after looking at the documents with traces of re-stacking around, he said: "But they were lucky, they couldn't find what they were looking for, and they found that it was too late, so just a little bit. After finishing the scene, I left in a hurry, the time should be right before we come."
Sylvia also nodded and agreed: "Obviously these people should be very familiar with the daily life of Lucius scholars and know when his students will come to deliver meals, so the timing is so accurate."
As he spoke, he saw Sylvia suddenly walk to the desk, and reached out and groped behind a small wine cabinet against the wall, and then heard a click, and the wooden board on the side of the small wine cabinet was moved away. A hole revealed the hidden cabinet inside.
Afterwards, Sylvia took out a few notebooks tied with straps from the cabinet.
At this time, there were hurried footsteps outside, and Sylvia did not read the notes, but handed them to Penny, received them in Penny's backpack, and closed the hidden cabinet again.
The moment the cabinet door was closed, Lucius's students pushed in with seven or eight city guard soldiers.
Raul, the chief of the Security Bureau in the second urban area of the academic city, felt unprecedented pressure, and these pressures turned into headaches, which no longer tormented him all the time.
A school city tutor was kidnapped in the second city area under his control. This kind of thing has never happened in the past. He is a pioneer, and he will definitely be recorded in the history of the school city. Just this record is not a good thing.
Fortunately, however, the matter was discovered in time, and now it is certain that the kidnapped mentor Lucius should still be in the second city, so he reported the incident to the management, while blocking the second city and no longer allowing anyone to enter or leave. , and personally led his men to search the city.
It's a pity that after a search, he couldn't find the kidnapped Lucius, which made him doubt whether Lucius was really kidnapped. After all, the traces left by Lucius' laboratory are not It must be traces of kidnapping, maybe just some items that Lucius accidentally left behind.
But later, the incoming and outgoing records sent over broke Chief Raul's delusions, because there was no record of Lucius leaving in the records. UU reading www.uukanshu. com
For the city, any mentor is very important, even a pseudo-mentor like Lucius, so every mentor must leave a record of entry and exit when leaving and returning to the city. Some mentors related to important research projects are even strict It is so demanding that you need to record more detailed content, such as where you went after you left, what you did outside, etc.
Therefore, if Lucius left the academy in the normal way, he would definitely leave a record of his entry and exit.
"Boss, why don't you go and find the few people who found Lucius Scholars left?" When Director Raul felt a little helpless and began to consider whether to use some extraordinary means, one of his subordinates suddenly suggested.
"Are you out of your mind? Are you still suspicious of those people?" Chief Raul frowned when he understood the wrong meaning. In fact, at first he also suspected that the finder of the kidnapping case might be the maker of the case, but soon He confirmed the identity of the discoverer, and knew that the other party was not in the academy before, and he had always been accompanied by someone after he came to the academy, so the suspicion was dispelled.
The subordinate quickly explained: "No, what I mean is that since those people can easily find out that the Lucius scholar has been kidnapped, then they may have also found other clues that we have not found, and ask them to help, maybe can make a difference.
