Chapter 250 Clue Integration——
"I went quietly to the interior of the Darles Mansion..."
Tang San recounted his experiences in the Darles mansion one by one.
At that time, Tang San sneaked into the courtyard and saw five servants walking by carrying seven or eight food boxes and more than twenty dishes. Considering that rich families had strict rules for eating, he found it strange and secretly followed the five servants, hoping to find out some information.
After following the five servants to the kitchen, Tang San saw that there was no one around, and his first thought was to knock out four of them, intimidate the last servant, and interrogate him.
Such actions will definitely alert the enemy.
Therefore, Tang San thought about it again and again, but still held back and continued to wait and see.
Unexpectedly, the five servants then left the kitchen with food boxes and dishes and returned the same way.
So, Tang San decided to go all out and followed them, wanting to see who was having dinner so late in this quiet mansion. And judging from the looks of it, it seemed like this person had been there more than once.
Finally, Tang San quietly followed the five servants, crossed the courtyard, walked through the corridor, and came to the house at the back of the entire mansion -
"The five servants entered the room and came out half an hour later. During that time, I didn't even hear anyone eating, let alone talking."
Tang San frowned, "Moreover, when those servants came out, their faces were pale, as if they were frightened by something terrifying."
"There is a secret room underground!" X2
Zhou Qing and Tang San blurted out this sentence at the same time.
"Yes, that's what I guessed too. Whether it's Xiao Lang from Notting City or Darles from Luoxing City, they both seem to like building basements, not to hide treasures, but to do some secret things." Tang San half complained and half stated a fact.
"My dad would never do anything shameful in the basement!" Romantina suddenly shouted.
"Huh?" X2
Zhou Qing and Tang San looked at each other, both speechless.
They only mentioned Xiao Lang and didn't mention Romanak. Why are you so excited?
Facing the two men's suspicious looks, Romantina seemed to accept her fate and actually told Romanak's secret: "In fact, my father collected a lot of story books that depict physical activities between men and women. Sometimes he would secretly go to the basement to watch them..."
As she spoke, Romantina opened her arms, her face mixed with excitement and embarrassment, and shouted: "Come on! You can laugh at me as much as you want! I don't mind!"
Zhou Qing: "... This sentence is your real purpose! Also, I seriously suspect that you often go to the basement to browse those books without your father's knowledge, and you definitely read them more times than your father!"
Whenever Zhou Qing thought that Romantina had been incredible enough, she would always be able to refresh his cognition and shatter his three views!
However, Youhui seemed to have already gotten used to Romantina's extraordinary qualities, and even showed an expression of admiration towards her.
Perhaps, in her eyes, Romantina's behavior is the so-called courage to show the truest self in front of others, and it is a symbol of bravery?
[Now, I am 100% sure that Youhui, who can become friends with Romantina, is definitely not a normal person! ]
With this thought, Zhou Qing suddenly realized that the people who might join the team in the future all had some "problems" in their brains.
Then he shook his head, threw away the messy thoughts, and signaled Tang San to continue.
"After the five servants left, I entered the house. It was empty. Our thoughts were correct. There was a secret room in the house..."
Tang San described it vividly - after entering the house, what came into view was an antique desk with a bookshelf behind it.
Tang San walked to the back of the desk and looked at the things on it:
The three books are "Safety of Pregnancy for Pregnant Women", "Nurture of the Fetus", and "Hypothetical State Before Soul Awakening".
A black charcoal pencil.
A soul-guiding candle lamp.
Tang San memorized the locations of the three books, a pen, and a soul guide lamp, then slowly squatted down, allowing his line of sight to be parallel to the tabletop, and after observing the dust on the tabletop, he flipped through the three books.
"Pregnant Women's Fetal Health" records many dietary matters that pregnant women need to pay attention to, as well as hundreds of folk remedies and pharmacies, mainly about how to help pregnant women regulate their bodies.
The book "The Development of the Fetus" describes the process of each stage of the development of the fetus in the womb... Tang San knew that this kind of book must be thanks to the "Fallen One".
Only a depraved person would conduct such inhumane experiments on pregnant women to find out what a fetus looks like at every stage of development in the womb.
"In fact, it doesn't have to be the Fallen." Zhou Qing said, "It's possible that they are using the name of 'The Fallen' for research."
"Indeed."
Tang San also knew that it was impossible to accurately depict the crude Ren and Du meridian diagram for circulating soul power that came with the meditation method on paper by relying on intuition. It must have been the result of research on living people.
Because the basic theories of various exercises in previous lives, such as meridians and acupoints, were not derived out of thin air, but were obtained through dissection of the human body.
"But, he is a Fallen One after all." Tang San sighed, and then said, "I have checked the three things on the table. The three books and charcoal pencils are nothing special. Only the soul guide lamp is special. It is connected to the table and seems to be able to rotate."
"That should be the switch to open the secret room!"
"However, I was worried about alarming the people inside, so I didn't touch anything. After putting the three books and charcoal pencils on the desk back to their original positions, I left carefully..."
Tang San did not act rashly, which was the right choice, as it could have avoided alerting the enemy.
But according to the clues currently available——
Six years ago, the unlucky couple that Darles used as an example to scare others were still unclear whether they were his biological parents.
The most useful clue Xiao Wu got was that the disappearance of people in Luoxing City in the past six years was suspected to be the work of Darles's people.
Romantina found her old classmate and old friend, Youhui, and learned that Darles was indeed in contact with a certain Soul Sect, but she could not be sure whether that Soul Sect was the same Soul Sect they were currently tracking.
The clue Tang San got was that there was an underground secret room in the Darles Mansion, which might hide some terrifying existence, enough to scare the servants who delivered the meals.
The three books, "Pregnant Women's Fetal Health", "Fetal Development", and "Hypothetical State Before Soul Awakening", may be related to the existence of the underground secret room...
