The cipher box William in his hand could tell at a glance that it belonged to the Devonhill family. It had a family crest, a seal, and even secret words on it. After thinking about these secret words, William understood what they meant, but he was not in a hurry. Open the cryptex.
Instead, he asked Winston: "Why did you give it to me now".
Winston said with a smile: "Henry said that if you fail to inherit his last wish when you grow up, then let you be an ordinary person. My uncle may never recognize you, but as far as I know You not only inherited Henry's last wish, but also far exceeded my and his expectations. I really didn't expect you to grow to this extent.
You did a great job. After Henry passed away, I have been watching you secretly. After you were admitted to the University of London, I thought you would marry and have children in peace, and live a life of peace and stability. I didn’t expect you to deceive everyone. , worthy of being Henry's successor, I think Henry will be very comforted in heaven."
William suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and hurriedly said: "So because of your protection, my mother and I have been able to live peacefully without being disturbed for 10 years?"
Chapter 141. Chapter 140 Cheap Uncle
"Haha, William, you are very smart, you are the only offspring of the Winston and Devonhill families, I will not let anyone hurt you and your mother Lena.
There are always some people who want to take the risk. If they can’t find the secrets of the Devonhill family, they want to start with you and Lena. I have dealt with no less than 20 people over the years. Winston and the Devonhill family treat The enemy is never soft."
Having an uncle who is the head of the largest assassin group in the world can really guarantee the safety of him and his mother, at least it will make many people feel scruples and dare not attack them.
After listening to William, he picked up his mobile phone and called his mother Lena, "Hey, William, do you still know to call your mother? I thought you would hide somewhere in the world and remember to call me after giving birth. Ah, I ran away after not coming home for 2 days, do you know that there are a lot of things waiting for you to decide in the castle, do you still think of me as your mother, you dull boy"
William looked at Winston with a blushing face. His mother was too tough and he did run away after only two days at home, which made him very embarrassed.
Winston waved his hand, smiling helplessly as he watched William embarrass himself.
"I'm sorry mom, I really don't have time to go back. When I'm busy for a while, I will definitely go back to accompany you. Mom, I love you. Don't be angry, and be careful of wrinkles"
"Idiot, I don't get wrinkles, tell me what's going on, I know you're fine, you won't think of my mother, it's a waste of time to support you, you white-eyed wolf, you know how to toss outside every day"
"Mother, do we have a relative named Winston?" William asked.
"Why are you asking this? Where have you heard that you have a relative named Winston?" Lena said.
William looked at Winston. Lena's voice was still quite loud, and Winston could definitely hear what Lena said.
Winston quickly waved his hand to William, put a finger on his mouth, and signaled him not to tell Lina that he had seen him.
Although William was a little strange, he still nodded to Winston, "Mom, I heard from my grandfather's friend. He said that I seem to have an uncle with half-long hair and a South American face. Is it my mother?"
"Of course, Evan Winston, with a scruffy face all day long, half-length hair that looks like it hasn't been washed, speaks slowly like someone owes him 100 million pounds, of course I know him, but he seems to have passed away unexpectedly Yeah baby, where have you seen Evan?
I remember that I still saved his photos. When you were born, Ivan came to see you, but I don’t know where I put them in the past few years. I can’t find some photos.”
William looked at Winston apologetically, "It's fine if you can't find it, Mom, I'm going to die, I'll go back to see you in a few days, say hello to Tina for me, bye Mom"
Lina complained angrily: "I knew it would be like this. Fortunately, Tina is with me. Bye. Come back when you have nothing to do. Pay attention to safety and food outside."
William said to Winston after hanging up the phone: "Sorry, Winston"
Winston said indifferently: "I already knew that Lena would say that. Lena forbade me to hug you when you were a child. She has always looked at me disliked and always thought I would take you away."
"What! Take me away," William said in surprise
Winston said angrily: "I'm sorry, I really wanted to take you away for a while. I can't have children, so you are the only blood in our two families. You have the same blood in your body as mine. Blood, but in the end I was chased away by Lena, and he hasn't allowed me to approach you since then"
"Okay, I trust you for the time being." William took the cipher box in his hand, and opened the cipher box with the letters of his father's Chinese name in the secret language above. There was a note inside that read: "Charlotte is a ship. , go find it", and a coordinate written in a riddle.
Haha, William knows Henry's handwriting. Anyone who doesn't understand the whole story will definitely be confused by Henry when they see this note. Charlotte is the treasure of King Solomon that the Devonhill family has found for hundreds of years. The only useful clue.
William pretended to put the note in his pocket, but actually put it in the storage space. There is no safer place in the world than its storage space.
It seems that Henry found a lot of clues, but he was injured when he rushed to find them, so he could only leave the clues to William.
William didn't have much interest in treasures at first. After all, he didn't have any clues. Instead of running around like a headless chicken, it's better to get more technology from later generations to make more money.
But it’s different now. Treasure hunting is still a lot of fun. The sense of accomplishment of finding the treasure and the desire for wealth made William decide to go to the ship named Charlotte as Henry said, and see what treasures are on board. or clues.
William didn't show Winston the note in the cipher box, and he didn't open his mouth to read it. He smiled and said to William, "Now can you believe that I am your uncle?"
William, who Henry believes in, will also believe it. After all, Henry trusted Winston ten years ago, but he still has some reservations in his heart. Who knows what has changed in the past ten years, so he has limited trust in Winston .
Let's talk about how the two get along in the future, "Well, Uncle Winston, I definitely trust Henry, so I trust you too. Thank you for your protection for so many years. If there is anything I can help you, just ask. I promise to help you." arrive"
Winston said with a smile: "I really need your help. I am old William. Ten years ago when I was 50, I wanted to train you as my successor. Now that I am over 60, this idea is even clearer." Well, I hope you can help me slowly take over the New York Continental Hotel, and I hope you can change your name to William Winston Devonhill like Henry did, I hope Winston's surname lasts for a long time inherited."
After thinking about it, William felt that it would be no problem to add a surname. He is not the name of Datianchao now, and it is not impossible to add a matrilineal surname to the name of Datianchao.
"No problem, Winston, I have no objection to this, and it's good to be the same as Henry, after all, I do have the blood of the Winston family in my body."
After hearing this, Winston was very happy, "Very well, William, I am very happy, so that the Winston family will not lose the inheritance in my hands." After speaking, he pushed the gold coin box on the table to William and said with a smile. : "Son, this is the first gift I gave you, you should have heard of the Continental Hotel Gold Coin"
William nodded and said, "I heard from a friend of mine who was a former agent of the American Military Intelligence Agency that he knew about the scavengers, but he didn't know the specific use of this gold coin."
"I know who your friend is, Brian Mills. He has taken on many tasks with us in the past ten years. He is one of the few people who can retire safely," Winston said. .
William heard that only a few people had retired safely and asked, "Uncle, are there very few people who want to retire from the Continental Hotel?"
Winston said with a smile: "Of course, child, when you have been used to bloody and exciting work for more than ten years, 100% of the 7 people who do not have a stable family will return to work after a period of retirement. Those in old jobs cannot adapt to the boring life after retirement.
Of the remaining 3% and 30 people, 7% will have to pick up guns again because they have been spending money lavishly when they were killers, and the money they saved a few years ago will be spent.
Among the last 9 people, either they were approached by their former enemies, or their families were broken up and they made their lives worse than death, so they picked up their guns again. Therefore, among the 1000 killers in the Continental Hotel, there will be no one who can spend the rest of his life in peace. . "
William's scalp was numb from what Winston said, which was too cruel.
Chapter 142 Chapter 140 I need more time
Then we are not the same. It is very dangerous. If you want to retire, you will not be able to retire. Then I don’t want to inherit your uncle’s career. I still have my mother to protect, and I will not let her suffer any harm.”
"William, I have a question for you," said Winston.
