Chapter 283

Theodore found this conclusion somewhat absurd.

Because if this book is really some kind of research note, then the owner of the note is studying the distorted words that appear in it, as if they were forcibly copied by a child.

But... what is there to study?

These words are very common and commonly used simple words... such as "you", "I", "great", "sun", "sky", "of", "light", "father", "None" blah blah blah.

Even if a three-year-old child is randomly caught on Nuojin Street, he can basically understand the meaning of these words. Is it necessary to write pages of strange notes beside it?

It is not uncommon to study sentences carved on some ancient ruins.

After all, those sentences are likely to contain historical information of several eras in the old era, which is of great value. Many historians and even real power aristocrats are very interested in these things.

Theodore used to buy this kind of books, and they could sell them for more than three times the high price, which was very profitable.

This time, he originally had the same idea, but he didn't expect to cause a big trouble...

But the more this happened, the more bizarre he felt.

Such a meaningless act of dismantling characters and studying them separately is simply... simply... indescribable! This is too silly, right?

Theodore looked at the notes in his hand, frowned and thought hard, scratching his ears and cheeks, still feeling incomprehensible.

"Maybe... my thinking is wrong? Although it really looks like a research note, it's just my own personal sense."

"Maybe those words of Azir were added to confuse the public. These words that I can't understand are the reason why those extraordinary people want to get it?"

In the end, Theodore could only use such a reason to convince himself to forget the conjecture that had put him in a dead end just now.

Otherwise, he will really go crazy... This feeling is like when he encountered a difficult math problem when he was in school, the more he studied, the more powerless he felt, as if there was some invisible barrier in front of him. He couldn't climb up no matter how he climbed, only getting deeper and deeper irritability and despair.

Theodore didn't want to push himself out of balance before he really faced a desperate situation.

He has always been good at adjusting his mentality and thoughts, otherwise it would be impossible to keep calm in such a critical situation until now.

Most people are scared to pee when they see a big living person turning into an eagle on the spot, okay?

In that case, the inexplicable fear of these extraordinary people because of the keyword "bookstore" must have completely evaporated because of his timidity.

Maybe they will come to the door directly the next day, how can they wait until the time to save themselves?

"Ugh."

Theodore sighed, put the book in his hand back on the box, and couldn't help worrying: "It's not an option to go on like this, since that person showed his ability unscrupulously in front of me, they won't stop because of that person. I have been hesitating for some inexplicable reason."

"Also, who knows what this so-called 'bookstore' is all about..."

—— There are a lot of wrong people who come to his store, and they are of all kinds, but two-thirds of them will show that kind of strange reaction to words such as "book" and "bookstore", which he used to be careful about I've tested it, and I'm sure there's nothing wrong.

When he thought of this, the movements of his hands suddenly stopped, as if a flash of lightning flashed through his mind.

"Wait... a bookstore?!"

Theodore stood up abruptly, then took the book, turned his head to look across the street, and stared straight there.

Tens of meters away, next to the road, there is an unnamed bookstore without a signboard.

It is old and deserted, and there are very few customers these days.

But it can make the eldest lady of Luoer Resources come to visit respectfully with a gift in person.

"Could it be...they are talking about this bookstore?"

As soon as Theodore had this idea in his mind, he couldn't contain his emotions.

Before, his thoughts were all occupied by the anxiety in his heart, so that he didn't think about it at all, and even thought about not involving other people.

But now, when he connected everything, he suddenly seemed to have found a breakthrough in the predicament!

When he was young, his father taught him that there have never been so many coincidences in the world... When you have an idea in your heart, don't hesitate to believe it!

He made a quick decision, closed the box, put the book that caused the disaster in his arms, and then went out and walked towards the bookstore opposite.

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Theodore felt as if someone was staring at him the moment he walked out the door.

The malicious gaze fell on his back, making him quicken his pace.

...

Lin Jie is teasing the cat.

He sat on his seat with a homemade cat teaser stick bought by Tomoen in his hand, happily shaking it back and forth, making the fat Xiaobai clumsily chase the feathers tied at the end.

This cat teasing stick gave full play to Lin Jie's hands-on ability. The wooden pole was cut by himself, the fishing line was tied by himself, and the feathers were... dismantled from the shuttlecock, even polished and waxed, and used as a Merchandising is not a problem either.

Well, it's just boring and I have a lot of time, so I can try to be as detailed as possible.

Anyway, apart from reading, there is basically nothing else to do.

At first, I was worried that no customers would come to my house to make ends meet, but since I have a book cafe next door, I don’t have to worry anymore. I have completely entered the old-age care mode, playing with the cat and the two little girls, and my life is very comfortable.

"But speaking of it, Prima's injury is basically healed, and she seems to have a good grasp of "Compendium of Materia Medica", so it's time for her to go back."

In fact, Prima was able to go back a few days ago, because Andrew called him and said that the matter was almost resolved...

Lin Jie asked curiously how he solved it.

After all, I learned from Prima that although her family does not account for a large proportion of the Truth Society, it has a long heritage and a unique status.

Even if the vice-chairman wants to resolve its internal conflicts—it is said that it seems to be about family beliefs, Prima and her sister are conservatives, and Jerome is a radical—it is still troublesome, not Something that can be done in a day or two.

Andrew said that the milk tea he brought back was delicious.

Lin Jie:? ? ?

Boss Lin was at a loss, but Andrew was very serious. He also said that some people didn't want to drink it at first and were very resistant, but they were kindly invited by him.

Then...they immersed themselves in the delicious milk tea, settled their suspicions, and reached an agreement. Years of conflicts disappeared invisible, and the family unification was completed.

Regarding this, although Lin Jie was a little suspicious in his heart, he was relieved in the end.

Lin Jie looked at Xiao Bai who was running back and forth but couldn't catch any feathers, and smiled with relief: "Maybe, this is the power of cross-world food?"
