Treasure hunt begins in England

Chapter 268 Investigation
"Yes, of course I have my own ideas." Liang En said seriously, staring into Jeanne's blue eyes. "I'm going to return these things to Huaxia. After all, I know these things are illegal, so I have to do this."

"That means you are willing to bear a loss of 35 US dollars, right?" Joan asked playfully, "Especially when this thing has been laundered and no one knows it's illegal? "

"Yes, after all, this is my principle and moral bottom line, and people always need some bottom line." Liang En nodded firmly and said.

To be honest, he usually doesn't talk about this kind of content that is related to his inner moral bottom line and values. After all, everyone has their own opinions on this aspect. Many people will think that your values ​​and moral values ​​are important to him. an insult.

So in order to avoid arguing with others, Liang En kept these things in his heart all the time. He didn't express his inner thoughts until today when Joan of Arc, a historical entourage, asked him.

After listening to Liang En's words, Joan of Arc suddenly burst into a smile, then she quickly walked to Liang En's side and knelt down on one knee, then grabbed Liang En's right hand with both hands and placed it gently in front of her. kissed.

Joan's action was an action of ancient knights and vassals paying tribute to their lord, and there was only one reason for her to do this at this time, and that was to express her approval of Liang En's previous ideas.

Because of the special connection between two people, they cannot deceive each other. Although they cannot read each other's heart when they are not speaking, they can easily judge the truth of what the other party is saying when communicating. Fake.

Obviously, Joan of Arc recognized Liang En's sincere words just now, so she expressed her thoughts to Liang En in this way unique to her era.

Fortunately, when Liang En came to this coffee shop, he specially reserved a box, so Joan of Arc was not seen when she did this set of actions, and it did not cause any embarrassing results.

It was actually within Liang En's expectation that Joan of Arc recognized his idea, because whether it was in historical records or recent contact, he could feel that Joan of Arc was a kind person with a high moral standard people.

For Joan of Arc, who has a high moral level and a kind heart, she will naturally recognize Liang En's approach of having a moral bottom line and obviously leaning towards the camp of kindness and order.

So today's incident can also be said to be an unexpected harvest. Although Joan of Arc has a high degree of loyalty to Liang En because of some mysterious connection, if the two sides can agree on the three views, they will naturally get along better in the future. Some.

When having breakfast the next morning, Liang En and the three of them separated from Pierce under the pretext that they had something to do.For this situation, Pierce did not feel anything wrong.

After all, he and Liang En are both friends and partners, but no matter what kind of relationship they are, they are equals.Therefore, whether they act jointly or separately, they are free, and they only need to notify each other in advance.

But at this time, Pierce also vaguely guessed that Liang En might be doing something that was inconvenient for outsiders to know.So when the two parties parted, he specifically reminded Liang En to call him when he needed him, and he would definitely help if he could.

After bidding farewell to Pierce, Liang En and the others went directly to the Museum of Archeology and Paleoanthropology at the University of Pennsylvania in a car hired from the hotel.

Located on the west bank of the Schuylkill River, the museum is a red brick building with an eclectic style and a concave shape. The design concept is to set off the grand interior space under the subtle and elegant architectural appearance The atmosphere of the exhibition.

Since the building was built, it has become one of the famous landmarks on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania.

The University of Pennsylvania, one of the eight Ivy League schools in the United States, was founded in 1740 and is the first university in the modern sense of the United States.

In history, the nine signers of the Declaration of Independence and the 11 signers of the U.S. Constitution are related to the school, and the founder of the school is Benjamin Franklin, the greatest American inventor in the 18th century.

Fortunately, although the museum is located on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania, it is still open to the public, so Liang En and the others quickly entered the museum among a group of tourists.

As a world-renowned museum, the Pennsylvania Museum of Archeology and Anthropology naturally has many very valuable cultural relics.

For example, the largest Sphinx in the Western Hemisphere and the largest outside of Egypt, and more than 7 clay tablets with cuneiform characters unearthed from the Temple of Enlil in the Middle East and the ruins of Nippur.

In order to show its brilliant achievements in the field of Middle Eastern archaeology, the museum's website homepage also specially set up an interactive link - visitors only need to enter the Latin letters of their names, and they can see how they are written in cuneiform.

In fact, the app made by Liang En and the Louvre is very similar to this program, except that the cuneiform characters in it are replaced with ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs.

After briefly looking at the collections in the museum, Liang En and the others came to the largest and only circular hall in the core area of ​​the museum.

This hall is the Huaxia Art Exhibition Hall, which contains a large number of cultural relics from China, so it is also named Huaxia Round Hall. Like the cultural relics in other exhibition halls, the cultural relics in this exhibition hall are also collected through a lot of illegal means. Looted.

Although these things were all looted, the museum naturally regarded these things as its own wealth.So now the side of the Huaxia Round Hall is specially fenced off with railings, and imitations of the items lost in that robbery are placed.

In addition to these imitations, the museum also used several display boards to write about the theft that year, and wrote below that a reward of 100 million US dollars was offered to those who found the cultural relics and reported it to the museum.

"Sure enough, no matter how many years the British have passed, the character of robbers will not change." After reading the display boards, Joan whispered in French, "As long as the things you grab are yours, you don't care about the original owners of those things." .”

"You're right. They have the same attitude whether it's cultural relics or land." Liang En nodded. He felt that he had a lot in common with Joan of Arc on this point.

While complaining about the British, Liang En and the others walked along the route to the exit.Soon the three of them came to the exit, only to find that the small exhibition hall where the case happened that year has now become a souvenir shop.

The crowd around the souvenir shop was an excellent cover for Liang En. He quickly sat on the circle of chairs surrounding the center of the hall, and then put his hands on the white marble pillar behind him to launch [Identification (R)] card.

Knowing the exact time of the previous theft, Liang En quickly used the card to observe the robbery from the first two days before the theft, using the pillar behind him as the reference point for observation.
