Chapter 323 Crawford Manor

The genius remembers the permanent address of this site in one second: www.81zw.us

"Keep the change, please..."

"Thanks, sir, and have a nice day!"

As the black taxi went away, Lu Qi, who was standing in front of a carved iron gate, looked at the internal structure of the manor in front of him through the gap in the fence, and couldn't help sighing:

"Wow, what a nice place..."

At this moment, Lu Qi has come to Surrey, which is located in the southwest of London, only across the Thames River.

And the mottled walls in front of him, the aristocratic manor full of rich sense of history, is exactly the Crawford Manor that has been passed down for hundreds of years!

After talking on the phone with Laura last night, Lu Qi got the specific address of the manor, and the two agreed to meet at the manor this afternoon.

However, looking at the closed gate and the empty manor, Lu Qi felt that no one should open the door for him.

Fortunately, he knew the owner of the manor...

He took out his mobile phone and called Laura:

"Laura, I'm here, open the door for me."

"Oh, wait a minute..."

Laura moved very quickly. Just as she hung up the phone, Lu Qi heard a "beep" in his ear, and then, the closed gate of the manor slowly opened!

"It's still high-tech that works..."

Whispering, walking slowly into the manor, what comes into view is a neatly manicured square garden.

In the center of the garden, a fountain is continuously watering the surrounding flowers and plants.

Lu Qi, who has seen Buckingham Palace, also has a certain understanding of British noble manors.

He knew that this kind of aristocratic manor with hundreds of years of history looked very glamorous, but it would cost a lot of money to actually maintain it.

From the automatic device of the gate and the tidiness of the garden, there should be a dedicated management team who come to the manor for maintenance and cleaning every once in a while...

while looking around,

Looking at the internal structure of the manor, Lu Qi came to the front of the mansion along the cobblestone road on the right.

Before he came forward to knock on the door, the door of the mansion was pulled open, and a pretty face bloomed in front of him like a flower:

"Lu Qi, you're here!"

Laura's dress is similar to usual. The upper body is a jacket with a vest inside, and the lower body is skinny jeans. It still looks so cool and beautiful.

Hugging with Laura who came to greet him, Lu Qi stretched out his finger, turned around, and joked:

"Hey, Ms. Crawford, didn't you tell me you were so rich?"

Hearing this, Laura, who was very happy to see Lu Qi, couldn't help rolling her eyes, "I didn't buy this myself, it was left by the Crawford family..."

"Come on, let me show you around..."

Different from the cleanliness outside, inside the mansion, the furniture covered by white cloth, the dusty tabletop, and the curtains that haven't been drawn in time all tell an obvious fact:

This mansion has been unoccupied for a long time.

After walking around the house, the two finally came to the study on the second floor.

Looking around the room, looking at the books piled up on the table, and the many documents and materials scattered on the floor, Lu Qi blinked and said suddenly:

"Is this your father's study?"

"how do you know?"

Pointing to a portrait oil painting hanging on the wall, Lu Qi raised his eyebrows and did not speak.

On the oil painting, there is a middle-aged man wearing glasses, with his hand on his chin, in a pensive pose.

No need to ask, that is Laura's father, the last Earl of the Crawford family, Richard Crawford.

Seeing this, Laura was taken aback, shrugged, and explained casually:

"Here's everything I need, so..."

Nodding his head, Lu Qi came to the desk, picked up one of the old brown notebooks, flipped through it casually, and continued to ask:

"Where is Rose, didn't he come with you?"

"He's going back to London at noon, and he's going to deal with the follow-up claims of the Endurance, as well as the funeral of the other crew members who died..."

Halfway through, Laura sat on the desk seat, pointed to the laptop on the desk, and said:

"Don't talk about that, come and read my paper and give me some advice..."

"As for archaeology, I am a complete layman, how can I give you advice?"

"It's okay, professional things, I will take care of it. Do you think I should write Himiko and Storm Warrior in the paper?"

Hearing this, Lu Qi frowned, put down the notebook casually, and said in a deep voice:

"You can write it, but please don't include Himiko controlling the storm and the secret of the storm warrior's survival for hundreds of years!"

"However, those are all part of the history of Yamatai, and they can also prove that the legends that my father has been pursuing are not fiction, but evidence of real existence..."

Laura, who once questioned her father, wanted to set things right and save her father's reputation after seeing the supernatural power with her own eyes.

Lu Qi understands this, but he doesn't agree with it.

Because not everyone has such a strong psychological quality to accept those extraordinary things...

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look solemn, and then persuaded:

"Laura, you have to understand that these things that cannot be explained by science, even if they witnessed it with their own eyes, many people would not believe it, let alone just hearsay."

"Even if you tell the public everything about us on the island, those people will not believe it at all, but will only think of you as a lunatic with a rich imagination. Just like you were on Yamatai Island at the beginning, thinking that storms are not natural Formed, but when Himiko manipulated it, other people didn't believe such speculation at all..."

Hearing this, Laura blinked her eyes, and couldn't help but meet Lu Qi's eyes, her eyes were piercing:

"But, you believe me!"

Hearing this, Lu Qi hesitated a little, and couldn't help complaining in his heart: That's because I've read the script and know the plot is like this...

Although I thought so in my heart, I still said like this:

"Yeah, God knows which muscle I made a mistake at that time..."

Hearing this, Laura curled her lips involuntarily. She was about to open her mouth to speak, but Lu Qi preempted her and said:

"You know, the situation at that time is different from now. Just imagine, Himiko is dead, and the storm has disappeared. Those who have not experienced it personally, will they believe everything you say?"

"A Queen of the Sun who can pass on souls and control storms, and her army of storm warriors who have lived for hundreds of years? This sounds like a good story for making a movie, but it's not a rigorous research paper..."

After some persuasion from Lu Qi, Laura gave up the idea of ​​writing all the things she saw in Yamatai into the paper.

Looking at the densely packed text in the document, Laura pressed the delete key on the keyboard with a bit of regret, and directly deleted all of this part of the paper...
