I don't have a system but I have a hammer

Chapter 290, The past of the manor

That's right, the headquarters brought a total of two bottles of Veritaserum. I didn't want to waste it on the housekeeper's son, so I prepared a bottle of the same color in advance as a bargaining chip for myself...

Sorry, it's getting too far, let's talk about what we got from the housekeeper's son...

Let’s start with the Grand Hotel Lagonissi…

Through the mouth of the steward's son, we learned that the predecessor of Lagonissi was indeed a luxurious manor, but unlike the information given by the blond man, the so-called luxurious manor was actually a place where countless gold and silver treasures were buried. cave!

And this secret goes back to the ancient Greek war before 480 AD...the battle of Troy!

Because the large amount of wealth under the manor was actually plundered from various places in the defeated country in the name of the victor after the war...

So who are the predators?

That's right, it is the very famous Achaia League in ancient Greek history...

Of course, this was over 1000 years ago...

Alright, let's talk about the manor owner, the old butler and his son...

As everyone guessed, the owner of the manor is actually a descendant of the supreme ruler of the alliance...

Later, ancient Greece ushered in a major reform, and the Achaia League disintegrated. Many members left one after another after receiving the disbandment fee, but it was inevitable that some white-eyed wolves who couldn't get enough to eat had the idea of ​​the manor owner. …

In fact, they never succeeded, because the owner of the manor was very smart. He not only kept a private weapon, but also entertained the royal family and nobles when he had nothing to do. Overwhelmed...

This matter has continued to the present more than 1000 years later. The owner of the manor originally had a son, but he died unexpectedly later, so he can only hand over all the secrets to his most loyal housekeeper...

Coincidentally, the housekeeper also passed away suddenly afterward. Since he didn't leave a will, his lazy son is naturally the one who inherits the order of succession. Interestingly, he is not as useless as the outside rumors say...

Although there is no will, but he grew up in the manor, and he also discovered some strange things...

For example, the father who often enters the basement in the middle of the night, the occasional strange movement under the floor on the first floor, and the stories about treasures told by his father when he was a child, all stimulate his budding curiosity...

So in the second month after his father died, he went into the basement with a shovel...

Of course, a shovel alone cannot enter the basement, so he began to look for clues among his father's belongings...

Hard work paid off, he succeeded...

It only took less than three years for him to finally break through all the secret passages under the manor and find the so-called treasure. However, what he didn't expect was that what he finally got after spending so much effort was only a football field-sized The empty basement…

Of course, this did not make him completely give up, so he checked all the compartments in the basement, even the cracks in the walls were not spared, and even hired a large number of workers to dig deeper in the name of building tunnels …

Another year passed, and almost the entire basement was turned upside down by him, but the result was also nothing...

It wasn't until this time that he suddenly realized that this batch of wealth had been smuggled to other places by the manor owner at some point...

And what his father has been guarding is actually an ordinary manor full of traps but empty...

So, disheartened, he finally dismissed the workers, took the little money left, and completely embarked on the road to ruin...

Everyone knows what happened afterwards. He became addicted to gambling, lost all his money, and owed a huge foreign debt. In the end, he could only mortgage the manor to two rich men...

Later, Regal filled up the tunnel, but retained the previous basement and all the compartments, and transformed it into a VIP area that is currently closed to the public and has a high degree of privacy...

The luxurious manor on the ground was transformed into the current Lagonissi Hotel...

Of course, we don't care about these things. What we really care about is another piece of information that the steward's son said...

According to what he said, he can take us around the VIP area and enter various rooms through secret passages...

Of course, in exchange, we had to pay him 100 million euros, and after getting the approval of the blond man, we paid a deposit of 20 euros and got the old version of the map hidden in the wall clock...

As for why you don’t use Veritaserum, to be honest, I don’t think it’s necessary…

On the one hand, it’s because, even if we got the map, we can’t guarantee whether there are traps below. After all, there are many details of Veritaserum that cannot be found out…

In other words, the general direction of the rhetoric obtained by using Veritaserum is completely credible, but it can only be used as a reference in terms of details...

If you follow the content completely, if there is some memory deviation, I believe that no one wants to be the unlucky person who stepped into the trap...

On the other hand, if we force him to lead the way, there is no guarantee that he will not be rebellious. If we are led to a trap, we will be the ones who will suffer in the end...

So the final result of the negotiation is to buy the road with money. Of course, let’s give 20.00% to show our sincerity...

As for the map, I didn't think he would fake it. After all, he didn't know that we would come over at the beginning, so it is impossible to deliberately hide the map in the wall clock...

Of course, just in case, when I left, I pressed the bug under the chair, and asked two special forces to listen in turn for 24 hours...

Alright, now that the explanation is over, it's time for us to make an appointment with the housekeeper's son...

At twelve o'clock at night...

Xicheng District, Fountain Garden…

I was sitting by the fountain, silently carrying the map in the communicator, while the female agent was sitting on the bench in a tracksuit, smoking a lady's cigarette boredly...

"Sorry, sorry, I'm late..."

Glancing at the housekeeper's son who came late, I didn't say much, instead I calmly took out the translation headset and handed it to him, signaling him to bring it on...

The female agent frowned the moment he passed by, and at the same time waved the air in front of her nose...

"you've been drinking?"

The butler's son scratched his head apologetically...

"I'm sorry, my friend treated guests to dinner, and I drank a little less wine, it shouldn't affect it..."

Seeing the unhappy expression on the female agent's face, I secretly smiled, and then patted the butler's son on the shoulder...

"Your lame excuse should be used to deceive others, but I hope that you didn't deceive us about the secret passage, time is limited, lead the way..."
