Some nobles also like to design secret rooms in their mansions, in order to hide some shady things inside.

"In other words, the reason why this person came here is to find the secret room designed in this clockwork room? But... how did he know about this? He is not a student of this academy, how did he know about this place? There is a secret room?"

Gulevin basically believed in the story about the chamber of secrets, but he couldn't figure out how this person knew about it?Even he or those who stayed in the academy didn't know about the fact that there was a secret room in the clockwork room. How did this guy know about it?

"Have you forgotten whose territory this was once? Mr. Gurevin. Even people from other countries will have heard the legend of that person."

"Here... ah, this is the workshop of the alchemist Leviathan."

Gulewin's eyes widened, not only him, but everyone except Victoria's eyes widened. This seemingly dilapidated place was once the site of the famous alchemist Leviathan.

"But... But, according to the records at the time, the king checked the entire clock tower for any possible hidden gold. After finding no abnormal traces, Leviathan successfully refined gold here."

"It's just that the secret room has not been discovered. The so-called refining gold is just taking out gold in the secret room of the clock tower."

This school has always been the [secret arsenal] of the Suvar royal family since the Middle Ages. Apart from this clockwork room, there must be other hidden secret rooms.

While it's not clear why the King at the time didn't know the location of the Clock Tower's Vault, the Leviathan must have known that the Vault contained gold for some reason, and thus appeared in the country as an alchemist.

"So... the location of the secret room is the last place this person stood before he died?"

Gurevin swallowed, looked at the stained glass, wanted to step forward to check, but backed away.

Not only him, but even the other police officers did not step forward immediately. No one knows where the stained glass mechanism is set. Die like that hapless bastard on the ground.

"Aren't you afraid to try? Hehehe~ Sure enough, you all cherish your own life. Are you unwilling to even touch it before you have a thorough understanding of the location of the organ?"

Inaba Tsukiyo couldn't help laughing, she had seen this scene too many times, and she had seen similar scenes when she was active in the war-torn area in the past.

Victoria looked at Inaba Tsukiya a little strangely, she found that Inaba Tsukiya's mood today was really strange, and she always behaved confusingly.

【Life...Treasure life...Life that lasts forever...Could it be...】

Reminiscent of what happened this morning, a certain possibility appeared in Victoria's mind, but this possibility was too unimaginable, and there were other people here, so she couldn't immediately ask whether her guess was correct.

Inaba Tsukiyo quickly regained her composure, and she looked at Gulewin with a faint smile, and suggested.

"Try it with a longer stick. Judging by the size of the glass, the poisonous needle should not be long enough to touch the person holding the stick."

As soon as Inaba Tsukiya finished speaking, Victoria picked up the slender stick placed on the table, slowly came to Inaba Tsukiya, looked at the stained glass in front of him, and said.

"Leviathan's identity is an alchemist. Alchemy uses the so-called Philosopher's Stone to create various things, and what color is the Philosopher's Stone?"

"Red, the color like blood." Inaba Tsukiyo accepted Victoria Liga's words, and the corner of his mouth curved: "I once heard a rumor elsewhere that it seems that some alchemists will use a stone to make the Philosopher's Stone. The life of the city is used as a sacrifice. Therefore, the color of the sage's place is like blood, and those who died of poisoning were precisely because they noticed this, so they were recruited."

Victoria nodded, and pressed the stick against the only red flower on the stained glass, the glass sank, and at the same time a needle stabbed out from the middle, and purple-red liquid leaked from the tip of the needle.

The acupuncture quickly retracted, using this structure to hide the mechanism.

"It is said that Leviathan hid in this clock tower on the night when he was hit by a poisoned arrow. He hid in the secret room and died. This is why his body has never been found."

After replenishing, Victoria pushed hard again, the stained glass was completely pushed in, the mechanism inside was also triggered, and the front wall began to rise slowly.

Standing behind, Gulewin looked at Victoria and Inaba Tsukiya standing together, and couldn't help feeling that the two guys were really monsters. They not only solved the case, but also solved the Leviathan matter.

With the rising of the wall, the golden light gradually spread to every corner of the clockwork room, and the hidden secret room was revealed to everyone, and a large number of gold nuggets were piled up inside.

In front of these gold nuggets stood a masked and robed Gundam man, with his back against the gold and a dozen sharp arrows stuck in his body.

This man...is none other than the legendary alchemist Leviathan.

Chapter 055: You let me have no choice

It was less than an hour from reporting the case to Tsukiyo Inaba and Victorika solving the case.

The two not only solved the case, but even solved the secret of Leviathan, which left Gurevin at a loss as to what to say.

Victoria looked at Inaba Tsukiyo with reproach, and thought that he would spend a little more time solving the puzzle this time, but he didn't expect to reveal the true face of this guy in less than an hour.

This is really good, at least it slapped this guy in the face severely, but this guy has almost solved the problem by himself, and her role is only to explain the puzzle?This would be too boring.

What was deeply surprising was that Leviathan's identity was actually a black man. This guy who left a strong mark in the history of Suvar was actually a black man, which was beyond the imagination of everyone present.

Combining the age of Leviathan and the series of related words like gold, Victoria thought of many things.

The gold rush that started that year allowed various countries to find a lot of gold from the African continent. Suwar is also one of these countries, and the clock tower is the place where the gold is hidden.

At that time, the king was going to carry out this matter secretly. In order to prevent other people from knowing about the gold, after the gold moving work was completed, the king silenced all the relevant personnel.

It's just that the king also passed away that year. It is for this reason that no one knows about the gold here, no...one person knows, and that is Leviathan.

This guy is probably one of the black people who transported gold back then. He was lucky and climbed up in the purpose and became the only one who knew about gold.

Why did he intend to use the gold to influence Suvar?Even at the risk of interfering in Suvar's politics?I'm afraid it is also for the motherland that is in dire straits.

But the little Suwar couldn't change the state of the motherland, and even he was killed by the king in the end, and he spent the rest of his life in this place.

The case was solved, and Gurevin also went back to tell his superiors about Leviathan and the clock tower.

That amount of gold has risen to the national level, and it is estimated that soon some national personnel will appear in Suvar to deal with these gold matters.

Neither Inaba Tsukiya nor Victorika cared about what would happen to the gold in the end.

At this time, they were sitting on the grass somewhere in the academy. Victoria was watching the gradually setting sun, while Inaba Tsukiya lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking about.

"Hey, Moonlight. I... Maybe I already know what you are hiding from me?"

Looking at the thoughtful Inaba Tsukiyo, Victoria hesitated for a while, and finally decided to speak out.

Inaba Tsukiyo's body shook violently a few times, she raised her head and turned to Victoria, her heart beat faster a few times, was it because of nervousness?Or because of panic?she does not know.

It may be because her biggest secret was discovered. If other people said such words, she would definitely not believe them, but it was Victoria who said such words, so the situation is different.

"What do you know?"

"You, do you have an infinite life? Moonlight."

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet, and there was only the sound of the breeze blowing around, and the hair of the two of them caressed their cheeks under the blowing of the wind.

Inaba Tsukiyo smiled, not the faked smile in the past, nor the wry smile when the secret was revealed, but a feeling that he didn't know how to describe.

"It's really you, Victoria. Can you tell me how you know about this?"

"You...do you admit it? Yue Ye. Admit that you have an infinite life?"

Victoria couldn't help swallowing. Although she had already guessed the possibility, the shock was different when she admitted it herself.

"If we stay together in the future, then you will definitely notice the change in me. In that case, why not admit it now?"

Inaba Tsukiyo fell back with a wry smile, lying on the ground, thinking back to what she had experienced in these years.

"I have been in this world for about ten years. I have maintained the current posture all these years and will never grow up. This also makes me unable to stay in one place for too long. I have to travel to other places every few years. The city will do."

"Immortality... This is a characteristic I have, but I don't know that I don't have the ability to die, but judging from previous injuries, as long as I don't suffer fatal injuries, I can fully recover within a period of time. "

I'm afraid she really has the ability of immortality, this is what she fears, and she thinks it is a curse-like ability.

"Why do you see this? I shouldn't have been exposed, right?"

"It was this morning, when you heard me say that Leviathan's eternal life was fake, your expression was obviously very wrong. When you were in the clockwork room just now, you saw Gu Leiwen and the others because they were afraid. And when I dare not get close to the stained glass, the mood is also very strange."

Victoria moved her body and came to Inaba Tsukiya, lying on her as usual, and whispered.

"At first I was just skeptical, because this kind of thing is simply impossible. But when I thought that you came from another world, since things like crossing the world have happened, then the immortality happened to you, I also I don’t think there’s anything impossible.”

For this matter, there are not enough chaotic fragments to confirm my conjecture, but it is impossible to find enough evidence for this kind of matter. Unless Hermani admits it personally, it is impossible to confirm this matter.

"Is that so... I didn't expect you to talk me into it. Hehe~ I'm really in a complicated mood. I didn't expect that I would have this day."

Stretching out his hand and stroking Victoria's head, which was resting on his stomach, the two of them remained silent in a tacit understanding, as if they were waiting for the other to speak.

"After knowing my most important secret, do you have anything to say, Victoria."

"It's unbelievable. I didn't expect that things that exist in books actually exist. It's just that you don't seem to like this kind of ability, Yue Ye."

Victoria was a little puzzled. I don't know how many people want such an ability, but why does Inaba Tsukiyo seem to dislike this ability? Why?

"You don't understand, Victoria. I don't have anything in this world. I've lost my eyesight. Even if I could perceive the world a little, I can't see any color. Endless life sounds wonderful, but it's just A person's endlessness, after the initial excitement, you will gradually happen, which is a very scary thing."

"The people you care about and the people you love will grow up with time, and eventually grow old and even die. Only you are still young. In the end, you are looking at the people you cherish the most one by one. How does it feel to be away from you?"

Victoria thought about the scene for a while, all the people she cherished finally left this world, leaving you alone in this world.

Not only that, in order to prevent others from discovering their secrets and hurting themselves, they must shift their positions every once in a while.

This... It's like she used to be, in a high tower with nothing but books, the cold floor and empty mood gradually made her lose the aura called "human", and gradually turned into a machine.

That was only a dozen years, and it only restricted her freedom, and didn't add any other elements that hurt her.

She didn't dare to imagine what would happen if such a life lasted for decades or even hundreds of years, she would definitely happen, right?It must be unbearable.

"It seems that you should be able to think about the consequences? This is what I'm afraid of, Victoria. So when you planned to take me in, I didn't think I would stay here for a long time. But I didn't expect... Things are going to be like this."

She shook her head with a wry smile, everything was destroyed by this girl, her heart that had been sealed with great difficulty, and the life she had finally gotten used to were all broken by this girl.

It's okay if you haven't experienced this feeling, once you experience this feeling, it is basically impossible to return to the past state, at least Inaba Tsukiya doesn't think he can return to the past state of being alone.

"Then...then do you want to be alone? Moonlight."

Victoria looked at her nervously, put her right hand in front of her, and bit her lips lightly.

"It's the best option if you don't want to get hurt. But... you left me with no choice, Victoria."

"Eh?"

Victoria, who was still a little sad at first, was stunned for a while, but didn't realize the meaning of this sentence for a while, and looked at the other party in puzzlement.

"What... what does this mean? Moonlight Night. You... what are you talking about?"

"I didn't say anything, anyway, you are so smart, you should be able to hear what I'm talking about."

Inaba Tsukiyo stood up, not letting Victoria see the blush on his face, and walked towards the maze.

But how could Victoria just let Inaba Tsukiya go so easily, trotted onto Inaba Tsukiya's back, pinched her neck with both hands, and kept shaking her to make her explain clearly.

During the fight between the two, the figure who had been hiding in the distance stood up, and this person was Gu Leiwen.

He looked at the back of Victoria and Inaba Tsukiyo fighting, with a faint smile on his face.

"Have you... also found the most important thing for you? Victoria Liga."

As half-brothers and sisters, Gurevin watched Victoria grow up, and he knew Victoria's fate very well, but he couldn't disobey his father at all.

He is well aware of his father's horror, and it is completely impossible to change his view of Victoria. In his father's eyes, Victoria is just a weapon.
