Lord of Secrets

Chapter 36 36. Ke Kou

"Didn't you check it last time?"

An impatient voice came from inside.

Then the door opened from the inside, and Ubermo saw that the other party's clothes were a little messy, his stubble had not been shaved off for a long time, and his black eyes looked very scary.

"Mr. Keko, this is for the safety of the community and your lives, so I hope you can cooperate." Ubermo said in a soft tone.

"Father, who is here?"

At this time, a girl's voice came from inside, a little stiff and hoarse, as if she had a cold.

Ubermo instantly looked inside and saw a girl wearing a yellow dress and a small cloak looking out the door. Her eyes were unusually dark and her complexion was somewhat fair.

Movina... Ubermore frowned and looked at Mr. Crocodile.

Ke Kou said in a relatively soft tone: "It's okay!"

"Oh?" The girl responded immediately and then stopped talking.

Keko turned towards Ubermo and said: "My daughter just came back from Vimofleur. She is more afraid of the police. I hope we have something to talk about here. Also, you are very unfamiliar."

Ubermore took a deep look at the other party, and then said: "No, Mr. Koko, I am a trainee police officer. I received an alarm from Feideley Girls' School this morning. They said that Movina might be missing, so I came here. Investigate it."

Keko frowned, and then said dissatisfied: "But I have already asked for leave from Feideley Girls' School before, how could they call the police? This is too stupid, my daughter is fine."

Ubermo didn't show any embarrassment, but said directly: "Maybe some teachers don't know and care too much about their students, so they reported it to the police!"

Keko relaxed his wrinkled brows, nodded and said, "That may indeed be the case. Although I feel a little unhappy, I still have to thank the teacher for caring about Movina."

"Since it's all a misunderstanding, if you have nothing to do, please ask the police officer to leave. Movina is a little afraid of the police." Keko said with a stiff expression.

Ubermo nodded, and then said: "Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Koko."

Ubermo then left the house, and then heard a "bang" and the door was closed.

Far away from Kerko's house, Ubermore stopped when Byrklo appeared.

"How is it?" Ubermore asked.

Byercro frowned, picked up the pipe in his arms, lit the spark, took a deep puff, slowly blew out the smoke ring, and then said: "Something is wrong. It feels like he is suppressing something. Judging from his every move , I can feel that he has violent tendencies, and he is lying, but it is a bit far away, and I don’t know what he is lying about.”

"I saw Movina. Her eyes gave me a strange feeling in the room." Ubermo did not answer Birkro directly, but told what he saw.

"But I didn't get too close because I also felt that he was a little depressed and might punch me at any time, so I didn't stay. Otherwise, when the police arrived and heard that I was impersonating them, it would be difficult." Ubermo Said casually.

Byercro looked deeply at Ubermore and then said: "Impersonating a police officer is a crime, and many detectives are afraid to do it."

"However, although the other party seems to have a problem, it may be mental illness or long-term stress. I heard that there was a problem in his textile factory recently, and some of the employees in charge of the machines have resigned." Suddenly, Byerkro said.

Ubermo was a little surprised how the other party knew, and then asked: "Didn't you say you didn't know before?"

Byrklo took a deep look at Ubermore, and then said: "You asked me about Movina's disappearance, and you didn't ask me if I knew about Keko. Besides, this is the basic requirement of being a detective. Keko is my brother. He is a well-known textile factory owner in Ji Community, and his wife is also one of the missing persons.”

I'm not a real detective... Ubermo said awkwardly: "I just came to Bai Feng City a few days ago, and I am a detective poet..."

"What, his wife is also one of the missing people?" Ubermore noticed what Byrklo said.

Byrklo nodded, and then said: "In short, it is reasonable for Keko to behave like this."

"He should see a psychiatrist." Ubermo sighed.

After bidding farewell to Byrklo, Ubermore returned home.

I pressed the doorbell of Lal's house, and after a while, Lal stepped forward to open the door.

"Mr. Belmode, good afternoon!" Lar greeted when he saw the person coming.

Ubermore took off his hat and returned the greeting: "Good afternoon, Mr. Lal."

At this time, Ubermo looked inside and found Ayesha with her eyes wide open, and then shook her head.

"Please come in!"

After following Lar into the living room, Ayesha sat quietly on the side.

"What can I do for Mr. Belmode?" Lal asked.

"It's nothing, it's just that Ayesha asked me questions about history. I didn't have time before, so I found some time today to answer some of Ayesha's doubts." Ubermo replied.

"Ayesha has loved history since she was a child. Although I think she should focus on machines, I have a lot of ideas waiting for her to help me realize them." Lal lamented.

"Lal, I don't like your steam refrigerator. It's noisy and it fails." Ayesha retorted.

Refrigerator...

Ubemo was a little surprised. After all, there is no steam refrigerator yet, but the Royal Institute has this concept. However, Ubemo doesn't know much about it. After all, he has always been concerned about mysteries, and he doesn't know how to tinker with these things.

Lal said awkwardly: "I really just wanted to try this at the beginning, but unfortunately I don't have enough knowledge and only understand it halfway."

"Now, I don't have that kind of mind anymore. I will be very satisfied if I work hard and have enough food every day."

"So, I hope Ayesha can inherit my dream, become a great revolutionary, and launch a scientific revolution."

"No, I prefer to explore history and understand the mystery of history." Ayesha refused.

Ubemo smiled and said, "I think Mr. Lal can go to Vimo Frey University of Wisdom to study. There is a high probability that he will enter the Royal Institute. This is my judgment."

"That's right, Lal, you are still young now, and you don't want to find a partner yet. You should be more motivated. Didn't you say at the beginning, 'The world will change because of you'?"

Lal coughed, and Ubemo could feel that he was a little shy.

"I thought you were handsome then, but now you are pedantic and decadent." Ayesha did not stop talking, but continued.

You want me to realize your dream all day long, it's better not to care about me... Ayesha finally complained in her heart.

"Mr. Belmode, I'm sorry to make you laugh." Lal coughed a few times.

Ubemo did not laugh, but said: "Mr. Lal, your dream is very good. The Feroza Empire needs talents like you. I believe that when you master the knowledge, maybe you can really change the world."

Lal shook his head and said, "I don't have any thoughts of learning now, I just hope Ayesha can marry a good man."

"Lal, I'm not an adult yet, and you should get married first!" Ayesha said shyly.

What a joy... Ubemo suddenly thought of his sister.

"Well, it's still early now, Mr. Belmode, stay here for dinner!" Lal looked at his pocket watch and said.

Ubemo nodded.

"Ayesha, take Mr. Belmode to the study. You can use this time to ask him. I will tell Haider not to bring lunch to Mr. Belmode's house at noon."

"Okay." Ayesha replied, and then hurriedly took Ubemo to the study.

"Mr. Belmode, how is it?" Ayesha asked as soon as she entered the study.

"Ayesha, don't worry. I went to Movina's house later and found Movina at home. Her father, Mr. Koko, said that she came back from Vimo Frey." Ubemo replied.

"Really? It would be great if I went a few hours later!" Ayesha breathed a sigh of relief.

"She has a ponytail, a few freckles on her face, brown hair and black eyes, just like you described to me." Ubemo smiled and said, "Maybe you can see her at school tomorrow morning."

Ayesha and her friends only need to go to school from Monday to Friday morning.

"I know, thank you Mr. Belmode." Ayesha said gratefully.

"I didn't do anything. After all, when I went there, Movina had already returned. But you'd better not go to the Goji District today." Ubemo warned.

Ayesha heard this and said awkwardly: "I know. I will tell Lal about this as soon as possible."

"Mr. Belmode, you just said that you can ask you questions about history. Is that okay?" Ayesha asked at this time.

"Of course, I believe this aspect is enough to answer you." Ubemo said confidently.

Ayesha said happily: "I have always felt that the Tulun Dynasty was a great dynasty. It is said that it once unified the northern continent. I wonder what Mr. Belmode thinks?"

Ubemo pondered for a while. He didn't know too much about this aspect. After all, there were too few relics of the Tulun Dynasty and lacked a lot of information.

"The Tulun Dynasty originated in the Third Age and was founded by its emperor Nar Tudor. The architectural style is dark and twisted. It is said that the Tudor Kingdom was just a small country at that time. Later, it may have developed due to the support of the Church of Glory, but the specific process is unknown now."

"There are four major families under the emperor, Baimon, Agare, Anmi, and the Ista family, which is rumored to be all female."

"A family composed entirely of women?" Ayesha exclaimed.

Ubemo smiled and said, "This is not impossible. There are still some female tribes in the southern continent. They capture men and kill and bury them after they become pregnant. If the child is a girl, she will stay in the tribe, and if it is a boy, she will be thrown away."

I didn't expect that there is such a custom in the southern continent. I always thought they were just barbaric... Ayesha was both shy and unbelievable.
