Chapter 82 Past Events
"Maggie...?"
Chen Lun secretly whispered the name.
He had some impression that he seemed to have appeared in [Philip's diary], and he was suspected to be the person Philip loved. But what he didn't expect was that Maggie would be an "extraordinary creature"?
After thinking about it again, Phillip's taste seemed to be like this, and he was immediately relieved.
He picked up the sapphire earrings and motioned to Viscount Pompeii. The latter bowed slightly and touched his chest to show his agreement.
Then, Chen Lun looked around the collection room again, scanning every item.
The mood gradually became joyful and expectant.
"Perhaps Viscount Pompeii really obtained [Philippe's inheritance]? Otherwise, how could an ordinary person have so many things in the mysterious field..."
he thought.
Looking up, at the top of the cabinet, a rolled leather whip lay quietly there.
Chen Lun stood up on tiptoes to take it off, and at the same time noticed a flash of nostalgia on Viscount Pompeii's face.
"??"
Chen Lun forced himself not to think too much and focused on the whip in his hand.
【Extraordinary Object-Philip's whip】
Item description: A leather whip tailor-made for himself by a hard-working extraordinary person to whip himself and motivate himself to keep moving forward on the road to extraordinaryness.
Of course, it is also occasionally used for entertainment.
Hey! Man, you're in luck! With it, I guarantee that you will not be bored on the way to becoming stronger... Don't thank me too much, I am just a pioneer exploring the way forward for you.
Item effect: The designated [Sequence 9-Animal Tamer] exclusive skill enhancement, only one.
"..."
Chen Lun remained silent.
I secretly glanced at Viscount Pompeii and found that the nostalgia on his face turned into embarrassment, and then turned into encouragement.
Speaking of which, Your Excellency the Viscount, what does that expression of yours mean? !
Chen Lun couldn't help but secretly complain.
"I just want to become stronger, just to become stronger, to become stronger..."
He silently hinted to himself and put the whip away as if nothing had happened.
After checking the collection room again, Chen Lun found the last item that was helpful to him.
【D-level magic-when the grapes are ripe】
Item description: The love token received by a certain extraordinary person seems to be transformed from an extraordinary fruit picked at random. It looks like a ring and is inlaid with purple gemstones.
It contains longing.
"We will meet again, right? Maggie...
Still in that grassland, that lake, under that vine. ”——Philip
Item effect: 5 square meters of dimensional storage space.
Price of the item: Every once in a while, you need to express your love to it.
"Finally, I have it, a storage trick..."
Chen Lun was secretly happy.
Life without a "backpack" is very difficult. The things you carry with you are limited and very inconvenient.
Now with this "small backpack", I can finally carry the "inventory" in the attic and some extraordinary items with me, which is safe and convenient.
"Your Majesty the Viscount, these are the three things."
Chen Lun took the three selected items and returned to the door.
It's not that he doesn't want other treasures, but he just accepts them as soon as possible. The most valuable items here have been obtained, and the remaining items, although precious, are just ordinary items.
There is no need to waste too much favor in exchange for property.
As for the deer head on the wall, Chen Lun had no use for it, and the price was something he didn't want to bear. Let it stay here and protect the Pompeii family.
"Mr. Jack, why don't you get a little more? If you are not satisfied, I can take you to the auction to buy something..."
asked Viscount Pompeii.
Chen Lun smiled and waved his hand.
"That's all, Your Excellency Viscount. I like these three items very much. Thank you for your generosity."
"As long as Mr. Jack likes it."
Viscount Pompeii asked Binoz to close the secret door with an expression of admiration on his face.
As expected, Mr. Jack has a noble character, neither greedy nor arrogant, and knows how to be restrained when he sees good things. Moreover, he is also an extraordinary person in the mysterious field and is worthy of deep friendship.
It can be seen that Rebecca likes him very much, if...
"Forget it, this is not something I should consider."
Viscount Pompeii reminded himself secretly.
When going downstairs, Chen Lun suddenly discovered that the task of [Philip's inheritance] had not been completed.
"Eh... haven't you finished taking it yet? That shouldn't be the case. I've checked everything in the collection room."
He was a little confused.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Lun tentatively asked Viscount Pompeii:
"Your Majesty the Viscount, do you know a man named 'Philippe'?"
Viscount Pompeii suddenly stopped.
There was a surprised expression on his face, and even Binozzi looked at Chen Lun in surprise.
"Mr. Jack, do you know Mr. Philip?"
said Viscount Pompeii.
"I have read his work."
Chen Lun looked admired on the surface, but he had doubts in his heart.
Teacher Philip...?
Hearing Viscount Pompeii's address to Philip and the expression on the old butler's face, he suddenly thought of something in his mind.
It seems that Philip had a close relationship with the Pompeii family.
Return to the living room on the first floor.
Binoz personally made black tea for the two of them. Viscount Pompeii picked up the teacup and slowly told the story.
It turns out that Philip once served as the tutor of Viscount Pompeii, and that was more than ten years ago.
When Pompeii was young, he was uneducated. His father, the previous Viscount, found a tutor for him, Philip.
Although Philip is young, he is knowledgeable and humorous. The two quickly became friends and often took him to the zoo.
"Speaking of this, the last time Mr. Jack walked with us, I remembered Teacher Phillip back then..."
Viscount Pompeii smiled, picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
"At that time, he often beat me with a whip... Of course, without the teacher's encouragement, there would be no Pompeii today.
I am very grateful to him. It was Teacher Philip who saved a decadent and ignorant aristocratic child. ”
He put down the tea cup with emotion on his face.
"Unfortunately, my teacher traveled far away and I joined the army, so we lost contact with him again."
Chen Lun listened silently and moved his fingers slightly.
He seemed to have returned to the past and became the plot party player who dug up the story of the incident, which made him feel happy.
"Later we moved, and although we left our contact information at the old address, we have yet to receive any message from the teacher..."
Viscount Pompeii spoke slowly and in a low tone.
Chen Lun's heart skipped a beat.
move place? !
It turns out this is not the real "Pompei Manor"!
"No wonder the task [Philip's Legacy] is not shown as completed... because the burial place is not here at all!"
Chen Lun thought to himself.
He organized his words and asked Viscount Pompeii about the old site of the manor in a natural tone.
"Oh, it's in the west of the inner city, near Port Loner... No. 4 Bays Street."
Viscount Pompeii seemed to have trouble remembering it, and only after being reminded by Butler Binoz next to him, he narrated it clearly.
Chen Lun nodded and did not continue on this topic.
But in my heart, I planned to go to this old site and get the [Philip's inheritance].
Just as he was about to get up and leave, he suddenly remembered the letter that Mrs. Caroline asked Connie to deliver.
"Your Majesty the Viscount, this is Mrs. Caroline from No. 7 Denton Street in the outer city. You have asked me to write you a letter..."
Chen Lun took the letter out of his arms and put it on the coffee table.
And quoted Mrs. Caroline’s words:
"She said 'She doesn't blame you, Henry will always be your best friend'..."
Then he saluted and left.
At the last moment when he left the door, he looked back and saw Viscount Pompeii taking out a medal from the envelope, holding the letter in his hand, and burst into tears.
