Although Leo only met with Sir Roland and talked once, Sir Roland had a good impression on him, and Sir Roland’s notes are with him, he may have been involved in this matter, so Roland He must surely investigate the cause of Sir's death.
However, he did not intend to go to Mosang immediately because the newspaper mentioned that Sir Roland’s body would be returned to his hometown in the Kingdom of England in accordance with his will. At that time, he could check Sir Roland’s body, Check the cause of his death and wait for a while to arrive in Mozambique before investigating.
The next day, Leo, who had nothing on hand, was going to Larson Manor to take a look at the Larson family's collection.
In fact, he had already planned to go to Larson Manor, but just after the banquet of the Roosevelt Family House that day, Lyon Larson suddenly had something to go abroad, making him unable to travel as planned.
However, Lyon Larson returned from abroad in a few days, and he sent a letter to Leo carefully, apologizing to Leo when he suddenly left, and invited Leo again to Larson manor.
Although Leo did not see Lyon Larson himself, he could see from the text on Lyon Larson’s letter that Lyon Larson’s mood now seemed very good, and his mind was very relaxed, obviously Lyon Larson must have happened during his time abroad, so his emotions and mentality will have this change.
Leo did not immediately go to Larson Manor the next day as the letter stated, but moved the time back and sent someone to inquire about Lyon Larson.
The information that was probed yesterday was delivered to Leo. Leo found that Lyon Larson was so emotional and so happy, and his mind was so relaxed, completely because he had no debt and no need to worry about maintaining a decent person. The money needed for the image.
The reason for this change is that he married a rich foreign woman, the rich woman is the widow of a nobleman in the Kingdom of Marais, inheriting a large amount of legacy left by the nobleman, the number of this heritage is extremely huge, it can completely allow Lyon · Larson lived the same way as those nobles.
Leo did not show much surprise at Lyon Larson’s luck. After all, such a thing in the Velon world is not uncommon. Poor scholars are favored by the lady, and then they receive large amounts of financial support, just like Not many people married this scholar to scholars.
Lyon Larson’s private life is not the focus of Leo’s attention. The focus of his attention is whether this will affect his reading of the Larson family’s books.
In a horse-drawn carriage prepared by the housekeeper, Leo quickly drove to the Larson family's manor in the suburbs. Although he has not arrived at the Larson manor, some circumstances in the suburbs can be seen from the Larsson family's grand occasion.
There is a forest on the way to Larson Manor, where it is called the Lar Forest.
Outside the forest, there is a deserted stone road inside the forest. This is the only road leading to the Larson Manor, which was also specially built by the Larson family.
The road can walk four carriages side by side, and there are a large number of stone carvings and exquisite windproof lamps on both sides of the road. Although they are now run-down, you can still see the luxury when they are intact.
Before he entered the manor, Leo was able to feel the change of the manor, because there were a lot of carriages carrying building materials and carriages for daily necessities on the road. Obviously, Larson Manor was undergoing a comprehensive renovation. This made Leo feel like a wrong choice when he went to Larson Manor today.
After passing the gate of a manor that is being rebuilt, the carriage came to the front of the manor and stopped in front of the main entrance of the main house.
The servant at the door saw a luxury carriage coming and immediately ran into the house to inform Lyon Larson.
Leo walked out of the car after the driver opened the door and quickly scanned the situation of the manor.
Now several crumbling sub-buildings in Larson Manor have been demolished. Construction workers are now building new buildings. Although the main building has not been demolished, many damaged areas have been replaced with new building materials, even In some places, even the beams of the houses have been changed. Now some workers are painting the repaired areas and making them old, so that the overall appearance of the house can still show a sense of history.
At this time, the vigorous Lyon Larson walked out wearing a very high-grade cashmere coat. After seeing Leo, he immediately greeted him with joy.
Although Leo and Lyon Larson only talked once at the banquet, Lyon Larson, who is not complicated in character, has already regarded Leo as a good friend worthy of deep friendship, after all, in Lyon Lar When Sen was unlucky, only Leo could treat him with equality and respect. This kind of respect gained in difficult times was the most moved by Lyon Larson.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Larson!" Leo, who looked at the mansion leader who came over, greeted actively: "Failed to inform in advance, suddenly visited, I hope to forgive me!"
"Mr. Dodd, your visit really made me feel honoured," Lyon Larson responded very sincerely to Leo, and then looked around without regret. , Said: "It's a pity that this is really not a good time to receive guests."
Leo grabbed the bag reached by Lyon and smiled: "It doesn't matter, as long as the Larson family's collection is still there, it doesn't matter what the house looks like. In addition, let me know Leo, no need between scholars It's too formal."
"Yes, the spirit of the Larson family is in the collection, not the house." Lyon Larson nodded in agreement with Leo's remarks, and then said intimately: "You call me Lyon too! Please follow I’m coming, I can’t wait to see those cute little guys.
"Don't I need to visit your wife?" Leo asked casually when he was eagerly leading him to the library in Lyon.
Lyon showed a slightly embarrassed look, smiled bitterly, and then said: "Sorry, my wife has become ill recently because of the rainy and humid weather that is not suitable for the kingdom, and she is now rehabilitating in the bedroom of the main house, not suitable to walk out."
"So it turns out, then I can only say hello to Mrs. Zun the next time I come." Leo smiled and said nothing more.
Seeing Leo did not continue to question, Lyon couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, then quickly returned to normal, and continued to lead Leo ahead.
Looking at Lyon's back, Leo showed an inexplicable smile on his face. Obviously, Lyon's explanation of his wife's situation was almost credible, and his relationship with his wife did not seem to be as good as outside rumors.
Leo did not have much interest in understanding the family problems of Lyon Larson. Since Lyon did not take the initiative to mention it, he was too rude to ask questions, so he could only choose to pretend to be deaf and dumb.
Soon the two came to the Larson family’s library, and they have to say that the Larson family’s love for books reached the bottom of the tongue. The building looks like ordinary wood, but A closer look reveals that these woods are extremely rare red broad-leaved trees.
This kind of red broad-leaved wood only grows in the depths of the wasteland, and the annual felling volume is less than 200 trees, and the value of each is enough to buy a private apartment in a port town such as Sete Port, such as Leo’s apartment. It is only equivalent to four red broad-leaved trees.
The reason why this kind of wood is so expensive is not only because the wood pattern and color are very beautiful, but also because the wood has the additional functions of preventing insects, ants, fire and corrosion.
And a few years ago, a medical school research report found that the organism stayed in the house made of red broad-leaved wood for a long time, which has a strong anti-aging and anti-disease effect. After this article came out, it was originally very expensive red Hardwood has become more valuable, and even many adventurous groups have traveled to the mainland of Mosang to go deep into the wilderness, not to find any treasures or rare creatures, but to find new red hardwood felling points.
It is precisely because of the preciousness of the red broad-leaved wood that most of this wood has been taken over by the royal family, lords and rich people, and there is almost no such wood in the folk.
However, the three-story small building that Leo sees now is actually made of red broad-leaved wood. In this sense, the luxury is more than that of the Inge royal family. If the news that this small building was built of red broad-leaved wood spread, I am afraid that Larson Manor will never be quiet, and many desperate people will be willing to risk a vote.
I have to say that Lyon’s stupid people are stupid. This small building has been built for a long time. Because of the dust and the repeated superimposed wall paint, it is no longer possible to distinguish the wood used by the small building with the naked eye. If Leo does not have it It may be difficult to recognize the words of Spirit Net.
Lyon opened the door with the key on his neck, led Leo to the inside of the building, and then stood in the middle reading area as if a king was patrolling his territory, and it was like a child showing his children to other children. Candy-like, very proudly said: "Welcome to the treasure house of the Larson family."
Leo walked over to Lyon and looked up at the layers and rows of bookshelves that reached the roof. From the outside, the library may not be very large, but when it is inside, it makes people feel very huge, and the bookshelves, The pile of books in the aisle makes people feel the deepness of the Larson family very intuitively.
"Can I read it?" Although Leo just glanced at it, he was still keenly aware of the many ancient books that had disappeared from the outside, so he could not wait to ask Lyon.
"Of course." Lyon smiled. "You can see as long as you want. The only requirement is not to take the book out."
"Okay." Leo was no longer polite, and walked to a bookshelf next to him. He pulled out an ancient book and looked through it.
Lyon didn't mind Leo's directness. Instead, Leo's urgent emotion made him proud. He thought it was the greatest compliment to the books collected by these families.
Maybe it was because he was influenced by Leo, or maybe it was because he felt a little embarrassed that he was standing alone, so he also casually found a book and just sat on the ground and looked over.
A little bit of time passed, and Lyon has also been addicted to the book. This feeling of reading has not passed for a long time, and just when Lyon was addicted to the content of the book, Leo has shocked and wrote down hundreds of books. , And began to walk to the books that have not been read on the second floor.
However, when Leo walked to the spiral staircase leading to the upper floor, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at the entrance of the library.
I saw that the door of the library building was pushed away from the outside. An old man with a butler walked in, looked at Leo, then turned to Lyon, looked over, and walked to Lyon's side, saying, "Master, Dinner is ready, your wife asks if you will take the guests to the restaurant or let people bring the food here."
"Ah!" Lyon realized the arrival of the butler at this time, and he seemed extremely afraid of the butler. He bounced from the ground instantly and took two steps back. Perhaps Leo looked aside, a little embarrassed, but quite Straightening her chest, she pretended to be the majestic steward: "Tell my wife, we will eat in the library. If it is too late, I will rest in the library, let her rest first."
"Okay, sir." The butler nodded and turned and walked out.
When the housekeeper left, Lyon couldn't help but take a long breath, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and then felt that his movements were too big, turned his head to look at Leo, and saw Leo was holding it at the moment Looking through a book, I couldn't help but relax, sitting absently on the ground, flipping the book in my hand.
However, Lyon did not know that Leo was reading on the surface. In fact, he was using the spirit net to scan the situation of the housekeeper, because when the housekeeper was near the library building, Leo found that the housekeeper was a Famous family, but also a hidden family that has reached a deep change.
Just like a werewolf~EbookFREE.me~ is no different from normal people in normal times, but once his blood of family members is excited, then his body will also mutate, and the degree of mutation depends on his The level of blood vessel excitation has increased.
Judging from the power fluctuations emanating from the housekeeper, his bloodline excitation has reached a very high level, and once mutated it is completely mutated, just like the fishman encountered on that day.
A clan with such a high level of blood stimulation is a steward of a female noble, so there is no doubt that the rich female noble married to Lyon is certainly not an ordinary person.
At this time, Leo couldn't help but look at Lyon Larson, wondering what special treatment on Lyon Larson would make such a powerful family member, regardless of the method of marrying, and he was even more puzzled by Lyon Larson How did Mr. Erson know that his wife and his men are not ordinary people.
