Six Hundred and Thirty. Sweet Rice Dumplings, Salty Tofu Curd, Dumplings Dipped in Vinegar
"Mr. Browning is a respectable man. He is not my first master. Before that, I worked for a factory owner in the waste city. Although it was rude to comment on my previous employer, I Still, I have to say that compared to that factory owner, Mr. Browning is simply a good man."
"Oh, of course, we servants also communicate with each other, and we will exchange some situations between employers. As far as I know, Mr. Browning treats servants the best. Although the salary he gives us is at the normal level, it will Give us enough vacation and rest time, and the most important thing is respect. Gentlemen, people like us, although we have a low status and are ordered around on weekdays, we still have our own self-esteem. Mr. Browning said Will respect us.”
"As for his children, as professional housekeepers, I think it will be difficult for them to continue Mr. Browning's career. This is not only reflected in their ability, but also in their attitude. They do not have the consciousness to become entrepreneurs. Still under the protection of Mr. Browning."
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that to my employer, but I couldn't help it, and you told me I could speak freely."
"Let's get back to the topic. Mr. Browning is a very good person with a kind attitude towards others. Especially after living in this villa, he looks younger and younger, although sometimes he is a bit picky about food or clothes. People don't quite understand, but overall, I am still willing to serve him. As for the inheritance you mentioned, I'm sorry, I have never inquired about Mr. Browning's property. His room is cleaned regularly by the maids. I don’t think there are any hidden compartments or secret rooms, and I have not seen Mr. Browning’s suspicious behavior.”
"I'm sorry, that's all I know."
In a room with the door closed and the wind and rain outside the window, the old housekeeper answered Stone's question.
After confirming some things, Stone asked the steady and simple old housekeeper to leave the house.
Only then did he put down the magnifying glass in his hand.
"This is a contaminated item. I bought it from [Silent Department Store]."
Noticing the gazes of Lu Tan and Xia, Stone smiled and explained.
"When I hold it, the other person cannot refuse to answer the questions I ask, and can tell information far beyond his own knowledge. The price is that I will continue to hear the inner thoughts of these people and the thoughts of those around them. thoughts, and some nonsense that I don’t even know where they come from.”
"It seems to work very well, can I try it?"
Lu Tan asked...
Stone thought for a while and handed the magnifying glass to Lu Tian.
Lu Tiao took the magnifying glass, and in his field of vision, the indifferent and cold words of "The Quiet Place" gradually appeared in his field of vision.
【Seeker's Soul】
【alienation】
[In the Kingdom of Darkness, there are always people who are curious about what is on the other side of the black forest. They build towers and raise creatures in captivity, just to find the answer]
[Among them, some people will sacrifice their lives for this. For those who are curious, if you hear the truth in the morning, you will die in the evening]
[After the soul is solidified, it is not only their knowledge, but also the desire for knowledge. The more thirsty for knowledge, the more they can touch the truth]
[Hold it, you can get the answers to all the questions you want, and more. The soul thirsting for knowledge will never stop chasing]
["One more step, one more step, one more step can get all the answers, why not take another step forward!!!"]
Obviously, this may be a relic left by a God's Chosen One after he was killed. This God's Chosen One probably came from the Kingdom of Darkness. He was a mage who tried to study the source of the demonic tide and how to restrain it. In the end, he didn't know why. He died for some reason and left this item behind.
Holding the magnifying glass, Lu Tiao heard countless murmurs coming from his ears.
He could barely tell that some of these voices came from Stone and Shia, and some from the servants. Those ravings seemed like their voices, or like lies made up by some indescribable beings. These voices gradually grew louder and louder. Big, amidst the commotion, Lu Jian seemed to have caught some more peculiar words.
Taniwaki
It was like a call from a foreign world, a poem resounding from the stars. Lu Jian listened carefully, and those random languages flowed into his brain, impacting every ravine in the cerebral cortex.
Lu Tan looked at Stone in front of him and suddenly spoke.
"you"
Before Lu Tran could finish speaking, Stone felt palpitations in his heart. He was a little surprised, but at the same time a little relieved, because this was a question that the other party should have asked a long time ago.
He knew very well that after Lu Tan got this extraordinary item, he might directly ask him about Drizzt. If it were Stone, he would do the same.
After all, how did he, who was originally an enemy, become Drizzt's assistant, and how did he inherit his inheritance after Drizzt disappeared? Stone's statement is completely one-sided, and no one can compare it with it.
If Stone were in their shoes, he might cooperate while retaining suspicion and find various ways to test and ultimately determine the truth.
With this [Seeker's Soul], Stone will definitely use it to explore the situation.
In fact, he had already used this extraordinary item to roughly confirm Lu Tian and Shia's thoughts.
To Stone's surprise, the two of them almost believed Stone's words and treated him as a companion.
This is very difficult to understand for Stone, who grew up in the intrigues of the gang.
Of course, all of Stone's fellow travelers in previous cooperation missions died during the mission, and he had never met the fellow travelers in his second encounter, so he naturally didn't know the importance of his fellow travelers in the Quiet Place.
Therefore, when Lu Tian asked to look at Ka's magnifying glass, Stone also thought that he would do so.
But since he had a clear conscience, Lu Tan shouldn't be able to see anything.
Lu Tan was seen stroking the magnifying glass and taking a closer look at Stone.
"It turns out you put salt in your fried eggs. "
he said.
"ah?"
Stone was stunned and didn't realize what Lu Tan was talking about.
"Sweet rice dumplings, salty tofu brains, dumplings dipped in vinegar, only the rice is the same as mine."
Lu Tan said words that Stone didn't quite understand. After a moment, he realized that this was his own taste.
"what do you want to say in the end?"
Stone didn't know whether Lu Tan was testing him or if he really didn't care, so he asked.
"There's no problem. When I was holding this magnifying glass just now, I heard the voices of everyone in the room and discovered some problems."
Lu Jian returned the [Seeker's Soul] to Stone and then said.
"There are people in this room that we haven't discovered yet."
