Mystery: Shadow of Order - Chapter 8 Chamber of Secrets

"As for this partnership plan, let's wait for a while. Otherwise, Adrian Law Firm will become the target of many arrows as Emperor Roselle said, which will be detrimental to future development. But if you're going to be a judge, or something happens to the firm, this plan can come in handy."

Huang Tao, why do you exist everywhere! No wonder Klein complains about you so much. You have installed all the Xs that can be installed by the traveler, so what should people do later?

"Okay." Rawls can only agree, it seems that this plan can only be implemented after he officially enters the world of Beyonders and is unable to manage the office any more. However, it seems that he has never managed an office before!

"Okay, that's it for today." Edmund picked up the walnut cane leaning against the wall, stood up and walked towards the door.

"I'll see you off." Rawls got up quickly, and with such an old gentleman and elders, he was not at ease for a moment.

"No need." Edmund walked to the door, turned around and said, "Remember to interact with other law firms during your break, and get along well with the barristers in your own firm. You can't do everything. Let me, a sixty-year-old old man, handle it for you!"

"Okay, okay." What else could Rawls say? Can only nod yes.

"Also, attend more balls, banquets, salons, and the Adrian family wants you to pass on it!"

Edmund looked at Rawls with a smirk, paused his cane, and said angrily, "I'm leaving! You go back!"

Rawls could only watch Edmund leave, and if he continued, he didn't know what Edmund would say!

……

Rawls hired a two-wheeled buggy nearby and returned to his residence on Gatton Street in the West End. It was a two-story garden villa with more than a dozen rooms, with stables and servants' quarters.

Perhaps it was because he had been renting a floor to sleep in his early years, which made Mason have a deep desire for a house, and he only bought a house instead of renting it. Even if Rawls rebelled and went to Tingen to go to school, where he studied for up to seven years, Mason bought a small villa worth about 1,500 pounds in Tingen.

Since Rawls returned to Tingen, the small villa has been rented out like the other two properties of Adrian's family in Backlund. After deducting the amount of tax to be paid, the three properties can have an income of about 800 pounds a year.

The price of the garden villa that Rawls currently lives in is about 7,000 pounds, but so far, only Rawls lives here alone in this luxury villa. After Mason's death, the predecessor dismissed the housekeeper and servants and returned to Tingen to spend half a year completing his studies. After returning to Backlund, he was even more focused on work, and he even spent most of the time resting in the office's lounge, and just hired people to clean the villa on a regular basis.

Rawls did not re-employ his servants. He had too many secrets on his body, and he was an Extraordinary. The existence of the law of aggregation of Extraordinary characteristics could attract Extraordinary people of similar paths to approach at any time. Here again is the junction of the rich and noble districts of Backlund, and the Beyonders of the "Arbiter" pathway can be said to be grabbing a lot here.

In case, like "The Return of Mr. Ke", he hired a group of servants with various problems. He is not like Klein. He is a cat raised by the goddess of the night, and he has a source castle, and he might be instantly cold. cool.

Rawls guessed that Mason lived here to better collect intelligence. There are a large number of rich people living in the West District, and Queens, which is more preferred by the nobles, is only one street away from here, passing the Williams next door. Street, it's Queens. After all, the housing prices here are too high, and Mason's identity is not very suitable here.

However, Mason has been able to live here for nearly 30 years, and his identity is estimated to have been verified by the "Night Watchers" team in the West District, but I don't know whether it was "Viscount Fear" Bird Mustang who helped cover up the past, or whether it was Mason himself. Ability to hide the past.

In the original book, Raft Pound, a descendant of the Tudor family, was able to deceive Klein's psychic and hypnotism from the baron. Although Klein was only a Sequence 8 "Clown" at that time, he was still a "Fortuneteller" sequence after all. If Klein hadn't left his hand at the end, the big killer of the Source Castle would have been completely concealed.

Mason is a "lawyer"! He is best at finding loopholes in language and telling the truth while avoiding the important ones. Every word a lawyer says is true, but it does not mean that lawyers are telling the truth. It is what lawyers can do to pile up lies with the truth.

With a squeak, Rawls opened a utility room in the villa. There was an underground storage room that was once abandoned. When the predecessor discovered it, it became the predecessor's secret room.

"Cough...cough..."

Rawls coughed for a while. The predecessor of this secret room had not been opened for nearly a year. In addition, it was not ventilated, so the air in the secret room was hardly circulated.

After waiting for a few minutes, Rawls felt that he was almost done, and then walked into the secret room. Turn on the gas light, and the warm yellow light instantly casts over the long underground stairs, UU reading www.uukanshu. com illuminates the dark underground chamber.

This secret room is not very big, there is only one oak bookcase against one side of the wall, and next to the bookshelf is a dark red desk, on which several books are piled messily. The table, the books and the glass of the bookcase were covered with dust.

"It seems that there is no way to study today."

Rawls sighed, but there was a burst of ecstasy in his heart, after all, any study is a matter of mind. What's more, because his predecessor didn't study these things seriously, he couldn't take shortcuts and could only re-learn them by himself.

No, when did I have such an idea!

Rawls frowned, this is not what his character can think. If it is other things that are not very important, I may delay a few days in my previous life, but it will never be too long; but as long as it is an important thing, I will never delay it, not to mention that it is related to my life. thing.

And at noon, when I was thinking about the plan for a period of time in the future, it was the same. I thought that I would not be outdated in the future, so I lay down on the sofa for a few hours with peace of mind. If Uncle Robert came over, I am afraid I would still be in the office. Lie down.

Is it because of the influence of the potion? But the predecessor and I have almost digested the potion, and it is only a suitable opportunity to be promoted to Sequence 8.

Or is it the influence of transmigration? But I don't feel anything wrong with me! It's a pity that lawyers don't have the ability to see, and can only perceive each other's emotions from their expressions.

Could it be the reason why my predecessor lost control or the reason why I traveled through?

"How long has it been since you came here?"

A man's voice suddenly appeared!

Rawls turned his head and looked in horror at the entrance to the secret room above the stairs.

who is it?
