Chapter65 【Don't come to me】
Li Jiu did not lie to Jeffrey. The place they were in was indeed some distance away from Tut Port City.
This is a mansion that has been abandoned for many years, of course it refers to that time, but now it is in ruins.
It is said that it was built by a wealthy businessman. Later, the wealthy businessman met a shipwreck at sea, his whole family died, and the house became empty.
The location is very good, with the sea just outside the door. It is clean and there is no one around. The style of the house looks good, but no one has taken it over because the house is said to be haunted, and many thieves and people who came to investigate have died. Over time, it has become...
No one is coming.
On the contrary, it was an advantage for Li Jiu. It was an excellent place for torture. He had also seen it with his discerning eyes. It was a rumor that it was haunted. There was nothing wrong with this house.
Because the deep diver Matt is watching Jeffrey, Li Jiu can only enter Tut Port City by land this time. However, except for the capitals of several major kingdoms, there are basically no city walls in other places in this world.
In addition, Li Jiu sneaked in wearing the Song of the Faceless Man, so even if Tut had some city defense power, he would still be in a deserted place.
After about half an hour, Li Jiu had reappeared in Jeffrey's study.
His safe is placed directly under his desk. It seems to be made of solid material and cannot be opened easily without a key.
Li Jiu did not immediately use the key with the iron hook mark to open the cabinet. The old man Jeffrey was insidious and cunning. Even though he seemed to have been frightened, he had to guard against what other tricks he might have.
Fortunately, although Li Jiu no longer has sufficient navigation certificates to conduct simulations, he is still an astrologer, and he can obtain the direction of events through astrology.
If this old man Jeffrey dares to trick him again, Li Jiu promises to let him know what life is worse than death.
First, he approached the safe. The astrologer's danger perception did not warn him. Li Jiu closed his eyes again and began to communicate with his destiny star in the distant galaxy.
It is suspected of the existence of a black hole.
In fact, he still has some doubts about his destiny star. After he confirmed the destiny star, he did not explore it, but every time, he could not see the specific situation of the destiny star clearly. He could only see some huge things in a vague way.
The distorted shadow, and the momentum that almost swallowed everything.
Whether it is a black hole or not is completely doubtful.
But the effect of divination is still good. When he made every decision before, if he couldn't simulate it, he would perform divination, and the feedback was correct every time.
So this time, he still believes in astrology.
Make the opening of the safe a matter of divination and start divination.
Soon, Li Jiu received a mysterious and mysterious feedback. Safety, safety means that there is no unnecessary movement in his life star.
Opening his eyes, Li Jiu no longer hesitated and opened the safe with the key.
As the cabinet opened, the oil lamp illuminated everything inside, revealing a large number of bank notes, land deeds, and a simple wooden box.
If Li Jiu guessed correctly, Affleck's suicide note is in that box.
I really didn’t expect that old guy Jeffrey would be honest for once, but this still doesn’t change the fact that he is a damn bitch.
Li Jiu's caution did not weaken. Faced with the wooden box that was so close to Chi Chi, he still chose to sense it first and then divination.
After confirming that everything was normal, he finally opened the wooden box.
There was no earth-shattering light coming out, and there were no other abnormal changes. It was just a roll of old parchment quietly placed inside.
Li Jiu took it out and unfolded it. His first impression was that Affleck's handwriting was very beautiful.
From the beautiful cursive calligraphy, it can be seen that he has received a good education and may even come from a noble family.
In comparison, the calligraphy of our ancestor Bernard is... well, I can only say that it is so-so, hehe...
The beginning of the suicide note is a relatively normal narrative, and Affleck's tone is also very calm, like an old man who has accepted his fate of imminent death.
He talked about his children, recalled some past events, and gave some instructions, all in the manner of a kind father.
Then, in the second half of the suicide note, the conversation suddenly changed and started talking about the box:
"...That box may bring you misfortune, but it may also be a spark of hope. Remember, our blood is connected to it. The blood is continuous and the connection is continuous. Live well and wait for one day, then
Return the key..."
This paragraph was very abrupt and had nothing to do with the above content. It even gave Li Jiu the feeling that this paragraph was not meant for his children to read.
It seems to be for him to see...
Li Jiu's heart skipped a beat. It's not impossible. In this world where supernatural beings are rampant, it's not impossible that Affleck is an extremely powerful astrologer who can predict events many years in the future.
But, what does this sentence mean?
What does bloodline have to do with boxes and keys?
Li Jiu couldn't understand, so he suppressed his doubts for the time being and continued reading. The suicide note soon came to the end:
"...Almost, that's it, my children, I hear those voices calling me again, I have to go.
It's time for me to find my friends and my greatest captain.
I miss them so much.
Miss the days we had.
Goodbye, no, never again, children.
Don't come to me.
Please do not."
This ending... this doesn't look like a suicide note.
It's just a farewell letter from an old father who is about to run away from home.
But it is indeed a suicide note, especially the last two sentences, which are particularly horrifying.
Where is Affleck going, and where are his friends?
Judging from what Affleck meant, he knew where his ancestor Bernard was.
And, he heard those voices again. This matter probably has something to do with Dalong, or that existence, right?
But, what exactly happened back then?!
Li Jiu's curiosity was completely aroused, almost like a cat scratching him.
I have a problem that is always crawling!
Can you please speak to someone and tell me what's going on?
Thinking a little crazily, the system's voice suddenly rang at this time:
"Attention, because you have collected enough clues, the mission: The End of the World is triggered."
"Mission: End of the World
Explanation: Please find out and restore what happened to your ancestor Bernard Fokker and his crew.
Reward: 5,000 sailing vouchers, a special prize, and a treasure chest (the rarity of the treasure chest is related to the mission rating)."
5,000 sailing certificates?!
Holy shit!
Li Jiu's breathing was so rapid that he couldn't control it.
But at the same time, he realized one thing, that is...
How big of a deal is this?
Can I stand it?
