Chapter 1520 Kidnapping Case
"Sorry, I don't think I can help you in any way. If you are interested in research in this area, you can apply for funding and establish a project yourself." Lucius, who was not used to communicating with others, held the rosary in his hand tightly and looked at it warily.
The few people in front of me blocked the door of the project department and said coldly.
Unfortunately, the visitor had no intention of leaving. Two of them took action at the same time. One grabbed Lucius's arm, and the other hit Lucius's neck artery hard.
Because Lucius stayed in his research room all year round to check various information, even his meals were brought to him by students, so the passive training in the academy was in vain. His body was much worse than that of ordinary people. Facing the two Kong Wu
The powerful young man attacked, and he didn't even have a chance to resist.
What's more, the person in front of him is also an acquaintance to him, and he is a colleague. Although the relationship is not good, it is not too bad. He never thought that the other person would attack him.
In this case, Lucius fainted and fell to the ground unconscious.
The moment Lucius fell to the ground, the two young men who knocked him out moved him to the side in a well-trained manner, then quickly took off his clothes and used some things to put makeup on him.
Soon he turned from a thin middle-aged man into an old man's corpse.
After doing all this, the two young people put it into the prepared body bag, then sorted out the clothes they had taken off before, placed them neatly in the closet of the research room, and put the identity badge
He put it on the table and took out a pre-written letter and put it aside. The content of the letter was roughly that he had found some clues about the first dean of the school city and needed to go to another country to confirm. The person in the letter was the same as himself.
The handwriting on the document written by Lucius on the desk was exactly the same.
While the two young people were dealing with the unconscious Lucius, several other middle-aged people with mentor badges on their bodies walked into the research room and quickly browsed through the information in the research room.
Unfortunately, their luck was a bit bad. Even after Lucius was completely dealt with over there, they still didn't find the information they wanted.
Although they could not find the information they wanted, those people did not dare to stay any longer, because they were familiar with Lucius's routine and knew very well that Lucius's students would come here to deliver meals to him in the near future.
So, they decisively gave up the search, briefly sorted out the information in the research room, cleaned up the traces of their search for information, left the research room, and then moved Lucius, disguised as a corpse, onto the prepared machine.
The car that came to carry the experimental corpse left Lucius's project research room.
Not long after this group of people left, Lucius's student walked through a street garden with the lunch prepared for him and walked towards his office. However, this time he did not come to Lucius alone.
Hughes delivered the meal and was accompanied by five people. These five people were Leo and others who had just joined the school.
Previously, on the giant energy disruptor, Leo and Sylvia discovered that Rupert Fitz's name was secretly imprinted in flange script among the many patterns on the surface of the device, and they had already determined that Rupert Fitz was
·Fitz was inextricably linked to the establishment of this academic city, and he also became interested in it.
Later, they learned from Boer that this device had existed since the beginning of the construction of the school city, and said that the energy disruptor might be related to the mysterious first dean of the school city, and there happened to be a person nearby who specialized in this kind of work.
scholar, so they asked Bohr to take them to meet the scholar to see if they could find some useful information from him.
Coincidentally, on the way to the scholar's research room, they happened to meet the scholar's student who brought him lunch, so they went together, and Sylvia also got some information from the student on the way.
Some information about Lucius.
Although Bohr called Lucius's title as mentor, in fact, his title as mentor was only the lowest-level scholar mentor. Most people in the city preferred to call such people senior scholars.
In the school city, generally anyone who has established a research project can be called a mentor. However, in the eyes of all city scholars, only those whose projects have passed the school city funding application and have established research laboratories in the third, fourth or fifth city districts can be called mentors.
They can be regarded as real tutors in the city. Otherwise, those so-called tutors who received financial investment from other places to establish laboratories and research rooms in the Second City are just senior scholars.
Lucius is such a senior scholar, because although the research project he is engaged in is very popular in the city, attracting a large number of curious scholars and students who are interested in the history of the city, he has not solved the problem of the first dean of the city.
Research on the mystery of his identity is meaningless to the school city management, because it is already in the past. Focusing on the present and future is what scholars like them need to do, so basically such research projects are difficult to carry out in the school.
It was approved during the city’s internal research funding review.
However, even if the city is not interested in this research, it will not create obstacles for those who study the history of the city. Instead, it will provide some assistance, such as bridging research projects that have not passed the funding review and obtaining funds from outside.
Invest funds to establish a research laboratory.
The source of funding for Lucius's research laboratory came from the Grand Duke of a remote small principality, and the Grand Duke also invested in several other projects that also studied the identity of the first dean of the city.
The reason why the Grand Duke was so interested in the identity of the first Academy Dean was because he felt that his ancestor was the first Academy Dean. The reason why the Grand Duke had this speculation was that his family
The badge is the identity badge of the first few deans of the school, and among those deans, except for the first dean, the identities of everyone else are very clear, and there is no doubt about it from birth to death.
"What's the name of that Grand Duke?" Leo suddenly interrupted and asked after hearing about the Grand Duke.
Lucius's student replied: "Louis Fitz, the Grand Duke is called Louis Fitz."
Upon hearing this name, Leo and Sylvia glanced at each other, but said nothing.
The group of people soon arrived outside Lucius's laboratory. Lucius's students motioned to Leo and the others to wait at the door. He needed to ask Lucius for permission to know if Lucius was willing to see them.
Then, he opened the door and walked in. After taking two steps, he found that there was no one in the research room, so he stopped and looked around suspiciously, especially behind the bookshelves, and shouted several times
Tutor Lucius.
After no one responded, he walked to the desk and saw the mentor badge and message on the desk. He immediately put down his lunch, picked up the message and read it, then walked to the door and looked at Lei with an apologetic look.
Ou and the others said: "Sorry, Tutor Leo, Tutor Sylvia, your trip may have been in vain. Tutor Lucius seems to have discovered some new clues about the first dean of the school, and has now left the school.
Already."
After hearing what the student said, Leo and Sylvia expressed their regrets, and then asked the student to inform them after Lucius returned.
When they were about to leave, Leo suddenly stopped and turned to look at a corner on the ground not far from the door. He saw an old rosary there, and on the rosary hung a holy emblem of the Spirit of Knowledge.
, because the corner is in shadow, so if you don’t look carefully, you can barely see this rosary.
Leo looked at the dust next to the rosary thoughtfully, and then asked the student: "Is Mr. Lucius a believer in the Spirit of Knowledge?"
The student nodded and said, "Yes, he is a very devout believer in the Spirit of Knowledge."
Leo walked to the corner, bent down to pick up the rosary, handed it to the student, and asked, "Does this belong to Mr. Lucius?"
"Yes, it is the rosary that the teacher always has in his hand." After the student took the rosary, he immediately recognized the origin of the rosary and wondered: "Why did the rosary fall to the ground?"
"I think your mentor did not leave voluntarily." Before Leo could say the answer, Sylvia had already responded, turned around and walked to the door of the research room, pushing the door open and saying: "We can
Want to go in and have a look?"
Although it was a question, Sylvia obviously did not consider whether the student agreed or not, and walked directly into the office, followed by Leo and the others.
Lucius's students obviously hadn't recovered from Sylvia's words just now. When they saw Leo and the others had entered the research room, they hurriedly followed them, trying to stop them, and said: "Wait, you guys
Wait a minute, this is Tutor Lucius's private research room, and according to the laws of the school city, you are not allowed to enter."
Qiao An, who understood the meaning of Sylvia's words, stretched out his hand to hold the student and said: "Your mentor Lucius has been kidnapped. What are you talking about about the laws of the school city? If I were you, now
Just go find the city health department immediately."
"Ah? Kidnapped?" The student was stunned, and then asked: "How do you know it was kidnapped?"
Sylvia's eyes swept across the table, pointed to the mentor badge on the table, and said: "When your mentor goes out to collect information, is it necessary to take off the mentor badge and leave it in the research room?
?”
The student seemed to realize something when he heard this, and ignored Leo and the others' intrusion into the research room. Instead, he ran out of the research room in a panic and ran towards the nearest city guard post.
Leo quickly took a look at the situation inside the research room and said in a deep voice: "It must have been done by a novice, leaving too many traces. They were divided into two groups. One group dealt with the Lucius scholar outside, and the other
A group of people entered the office to search for things." As he spoke, he looked at the documents around him that showed traces of re-stacking, and said, "But they were a little lucky and couldn't find what they wanted. They found that they didn't have enough time, so they just...
After tidying up the scene, we left in a hurry, probably just before we arrived."
Sylvia also nodded and agreed: "Obviously these people should be very familiar with the daily life of Scholar Lucius and know when his students will come to deliver meals, so they know the time so accurately."
As he was talking, he saw Sylvia suddenly walking to the desk, reaching out and groping behind a small wine cabinet against the wall, and then heard a snap, and the wooden board on one side of the small wine cabinet moved away.
A hole revealed a hidden cabinet inside.
Later, Sylvia took out a few notebooks tied with tape from the cabinet.
At this time, there were rapid footsteps outside. Sylvia did not look through the notes, but handed them to Penny, put them in Penny's backpack, and closed the hidden cabinet again.
The moment the cabinet door closed, Lucius's students pushed in with seven or eight city guards.
Raul, the security director of the Second District of the Academic City, felt unprecedented pressure. These pressures directly turned into headaches, which no longer tortured him all the time.
A school city instructor was actually kidnapped in the second city district he governed. This kind of thing has never happened in the past. He is a pioneer, and he will definitely be recorded in the history of the school city.
It's just that this record is not a good thing.
However, fortunately, the matter was discovered in time, and it is now certain that the kidnapped mentor Lucius should still be in the Second City District, so while reporting the matter to the management, he blocked the Second City District and no longer allowed anyone to enter or exit.
, and personally led his men to search the entire city.
Unfortunately, after searching, he could not find the kidnapped Lucius, which made him doubt whether Lucius was really kidnapped. After all, the traces left by Lucius's laboratory were not there.
There must be traces of kidnapping, maybe just some items that Lucius accidentally left behind.
But later, Director Raul's delusion was shattered by the entry and exit records sent over, because there was no record of Lucius leaving in the records.
For the school city, any tutor is very important, even a pseudo-tutor like Lucius, so every tutor must leave records when leaving and returning to the school city. Some tutors related to important research projects are even strict
It is so strict that you need to record more detailed content, such as where you went after leaving, what you did outside, etc.
Therefore, if Lucius leaves the school in the normal way, he will definitely leave a record of his coming and going.
"Boss, why don't you go find those people who discovered that Scholar Lucius left?" When Director Raul felt a little helpless and began to consider whether to use some extraordinary measures, one of his subordinates suddenly suggested.
"Are you out of your mind? Are you still doubting those people?" Director Raul frowned after understanding the wrong meaning. In fact, at first he also suspected that the discoverer of the kidnapping case might be the perpetrator of the case, but soon
He confirmed the identity of the discoverer, and knew that the other person had not been in the school city before, and that he had been accompanied by someone since arriving in the school city, so his suspicion was dispelled.
The subordinate hurriedly explained: "No, what I mean is that since those people can so easily discover that Scholar Lucius has been kidnapped, then they may also have discovered other clues that we have not discovered, and ask them to help, maybe
