[Comprehensive English and American] You have to pay rent even if you are a ghost

There are no tourists watching, and if something happens, there is still room for manipulation.If a tourist dies in a terrorist attack, the matter cannot be suppressed.The all-pervasive media will dig out all the information, and if someone with a heart wants to encourage the ignorant people, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Sherlock Holmes was not interested in this kind of game of forcing the palace to abdicate. Whether the reigning queen or king has nothing to do with him.He especially didn't want to help Mycroft Holmes, and he didn't want to help the big devil at all.

It's just that that fat bastard Mycroft knew him damn well, and he had a third letter delivered.

Sherlock Holmes read the letter reluctantly, and what was revealed in the letter raised his eyebrows and became a little interested.And when the materials of the three letters were placed in front of him together, Sherlock Holmes was sure.

There are at least two people behind the scenes this time.

It is one person who wished the queen would abdicate today, and another person who planned the whole incident.

He was more interested in the guy who made the plan.

Sherlock Holmes stepped into the "playground" built by the man with great interest, hoping that the man would not disappoint him.

At the same time, at the Clarinda Teahouse, while the waiter was not paying attention, Raffaele and Tate came to a certain box on the first floor.

Because it was still early, the business of the teahouse had not yet reached its busiest time, and many boxes were empty.

Fortunately, that special box is now vacant.

Raffaele walked to one side of the wall, groping for the candlestick in front of him with the palm of his hand, and he didn't know where he pressed his fingers. He saw that he used force with his hands, and the whole candlestick turned down 180°.

With a slight clicking sound, under the only table in the private room, the floor moved towards the surroundings, revealing a large black hole the size of the table.

Tate took a look, and the ghost's talent allowed him to clearly see that there was a stone staircase extending to an unknown place under the dark hole.

Raffaele leaned slightly and gave Tate a gentlemanly salute.He stretched out his hand to Tate, with a smile in his sky blue eyes, and said, "Mr. Tate, may I have the honor to lead you to witness the underground world of Holyrood Palace?"

The corner of Tate's mouth twitched, vaguely wanting to laugh but he held it back seriously.

The blond-haired boy coughed lightly, put his hand on Raphael's, and said seriously, "I'm honored."

The two walked down the steps, and after a while, everything in the box returned to normal.

After walking down the steps, there is a long secret passage. Candlesticks are placed on both sides of the secret passage, which can be used as a tool for lighting as long as there is a ignition.But since both of them could see clearly in the dark, they did not light the candlesticks, but walked calmly in the dark.

When he reached a fork in the road, Raffaele stopped and looked straight at one of the secret passages.

Tate also looked in that direction, and in the impenetrable black surroundings, a little bit of starlight was very eye-catching.

In the depths of this secret path, there is a faint light.

"Someone touched the secret passage on the west side of the palace." Raphael's voice was soft, and there was not much surprise in his tone, just narrating lightly.

After a while, Raffaele looked back with disinterest.

Nothing to do with him.

Raffaele reached out to hold Tate's hand, and walked towards another secret passage.

In order to deal with the occurrence of certain situations, the underground secret passage in the palace is actually more like a maze.Sometimes even if one finds the entrance of a secret passage by mistake, it is not uncommon to get lost in the secret passage extending in all directions without relatively complete information and great luck.

The secret passage that Raphael walked was walked dozens of times when he was young, let alone more than half of which was opened by Raphael himself.Even if he doesn't use magic and closes his eyes, Raffaele can lead Tate to his room.

Ten minutes later, Raffaele flipped the candlestick on one side of the secret passage, and with a clicking sound, the stone wall in front of him receded to the sides, revealing a person-high exit.

A faint light shone into the secret passage.

Raphael's bedroom, which had been sealed for more than 300 years, appeared in front of them.

Tate's eyes widened, and he blurted out, "Wow."

Raphael's bedroom is different from all the rooms in Holyrood Palace. This room is higher than ordinary rooms. The ceiling is a circular dome. The white lime relief pattern blooming like flowers is dotted at the highest point, and the middle one is The part is the same golden tree pattern as Raphael's usual emblem, surrounded by clouds and feather patterns.

The lower part of the dome is a picture window composed of eight stained glass windows. The patterns displayed on each picture window are derived from ancient myths—gods walking on the surface of the abyss, white robes flying with wings Angels gather the Garden of Eden, the beginning of all things in the world, silver long swords with gorgeous feather patterns, and various treasures that exist in legends, such as conch-shaped angel horns, red swords of truth, etc.

Looking at the scenes on the dome window, Tate suddenly realized that although Raffaele didn't care much about the Holy See of Light, he yearned for the gods above the nine heavens and all the legends surrounding him.

Below the picture window is a crystal chandelier. The leaf-shaped crystal ornaments are exquisite and gorgeous, and each petal holds a white candle.

On the side near the window, there is a four-poster bed that can be called ingenious. The red and black solid wood four-poster pillars are carved with exquisite patterns, and the parts connected to the ceiling are wrapped with egret feathers.The crimson velvet curtain was raised by hooks of pure gold, revealing the soft brocaded bed.

European royal families love to decorate their rooms with oil paintings and tapestries, and Raffaele's bedroom is no exception.

However, unlike the portraits of people in the corridor outside the house, there is only one landscape painting in this room, which is the magnificent scenery of Edinburgh Castle in the distance.

The tapestry is in line with the habits of the royal family. It comes from a legendary scene and is embroidered by hand. It is a scene of a blond angel in white robes offering a flower branch to God in the holy light.

The furnishings in this bedroom are all exquisite and gorgeous, and because of the spell that Raffaele once left in this room, everything inside has not been eroded by the ruthlessness of time at all, just like it was just arranged at the beginning.

Tate is not surprised that if everything in this room is known to the world, everything in it can become a miracle treasure that shocks the whole of Britain and even the world.

When Raffaele left Scotland, he brought almost all his belongings with him, except for everything in the bedroom, which he didn't touch at all.

On the one hand, he did not intend to rebuild an identical residence in Plymouth, on the other hand, the bedroom was already a finished work.If he wanted to take it away, the former Raffaele could only dismantle every part of the bedroom and pack them one by one, which seemed like destroying a complete work.Even if Raffaele were able to put it back together, it would feel different.

Raffaele was willing to leave everything in the palace intact in Holyrood Palace. Anyway, there was a spell, and no one would enter his territory.

Tate couldn't help looking at Raffaele, and only one sentence remained after a thousand words: "Has anyone ever entered your bedroom?"

Raffaele's former bedroom was too gorgeous, and Tate doubted that there was no room in the entire Holyrood Palace, including the bedroom of the king and queen, that could compare with this room.

So, here comes the question, if other members of the royal family have seen Raffaele's chambers, won't they be jealous?Wouldn't they have put little shoes on Raffaele in front of the then King of Scotland?Raffaele is a good Scottish prince. Even if he can't become the next king, he can at least get the position of duke and marquis in his country. Going to Plymouth... Doesn't it look like exile?

"No." Raffaele didn't like others entering his most private place. He pointed in one direction and said, "The room next door together with this bedroom is my original bedroom."

Although Raffaele was very unknown in the later period, when he was a child and could not use some power, the delicate and beautiful appearance that was rare in the entire royal family gave him a lot of convenience.Although the King of Scotland thought it was inappropriate for this appearance to appear on a boy, he couldn't stand the Queen of Scotland's preference.

Then a child carved in jade is her son. No matter what he looks like when he grows up, he can always touch the softest part of a woman's heart when he is young.

In particular, he is still young, and his favor will not shake the eldest son's position as the crown prince.

With a wave of her hand, the Queen of Scotland directly opened up the two rooms and combined them as Rafaelette's bedroom.

But later, after Raffaele mastered more and more abilities, he half-sealed the passage of that room, and the suggestive spell left on the door made the people in the palace gradually ignore that room.

Raffaele looked at Tate and said, "Do you like what's in here? Which one do you like? We can take it home." After a pause, Raffaele frowned with a smile on his face, "This Everything inside is made by me.”

Yes, whether it is the lime reliefs on the dome, the colored paintings on the picture windows, the oil paintings on the walls, the woven tapestries, or even the four-poster bed and the bed curtain above it, all were made by Raffaele himself.

He didn't want to destroy the integrity of this bedroom, but if Tate liked one, it would be different.

Tate: "!!!"

Tate stared dumbfounded at the exquisite furnishings in the room, and said incoherently: "You are a prince, why, these carvings are..."

"It's effortless." Raffaele said indifferently, "And, it's quite interesting."

Tate: "..."

***

While Raffaele and Tate were reminiscing about the past in the unrecorded rooms of Holyrood Palace, Sherlock Holmes was flipping through the floor plans of Holyrood Palace and the video materials of each room.

This is undoubtedly a big project.

He flipped through the booklet very quickly, with a glance of his eyes and a flip of the floor, and he usually stayed on each page for no more than a second. He didn't actually see anything.

Then there is the video data.

The video data accelerated to [-] times, to outsiders, is just a bunch of noise and distorted colors that make it difficult to see the truth, but that guy named Sherlock Holmes can't take his eyes off it.

Not long after, almost everyone couldn't bear the harsh noise in the room, so Inspector Lestrade, who was full of responsibility, gritted his teeth and stood where he was, and stuffed the earplugs he bought from the pharmacy into his ears for a while. stuffed.

Detective Lestrade, who has unconsciously developed a nanny mentality, has a little bit of experience in dealing with Sherlock Sherlock Holmes.

Half an hour later, Sherlock Holmes read all the information about Holyrood Palace, and in the thinking palace in his mind, there was a palace that was exactly the same as the actual Holyrood Palace but scaled down by a hundred times. The palace rose from the ground.

Outside the palace, the words left on the previous letter revolved crazily around the palace, throwing out a word or two from time to time and entering the shrunken version of Holyrood Palace.

Three minutes later, the words surrounding the palace were shattered, and the words that had entered the palace just now were lined up in front of my eyes.

Sherlock Holmes opened his eyes abruptly, jumped up, and rushed out the door.

Inspector Greg Lestrade was taken aback by Sherlock Holmes' unexpected behavior, and quickly called out "Sherlock".

Sherlock Holmes ignored him and ran towards the stairs with his long legs.

Greg Lestrade cursed, took out his earplugs, and ran behind Sherlock Holmes.

Sherlock Holmes ran all the way to the third floor of the palace, and rushed directly into the second room.

The overall building of the Palace of Holyroodhouse presents a U-shape. According to the images and drawings, there are two large rooms in the corridor on the west side of the third floor.However, when collecting information just now, Sherlock Holmes discovered that the internal area of ​​these two rooms did not correspond to the length of the entire corridor. After adding and subtracting, it was clear that one room was missing in the information book.

So, Chamber of Secrets?Or the room that disappeared?

Sherlock Holmes instinctively noticed the interest, even if he found the target room where the black hand left the letter before, he rushed here first.

While Sherlock Holmes was banging on the wall of the second room, Greg Lestrade ran over with a tired face.Before the exhausted detective could say a word, the curly-haired bastard in a black windbreaker rushed out of the room like a gust of wind.

He pawed on the wall of the corridor, knocking and listening.

And when he knocked on the "wall", Raffaele, who was lying on the four-poster bed in the room and was talking about his childhood, suddenly stopped talking. He raised his body slightly and looked at the room in his room silently. The door that was knocked.

Has his secret bedroom been discovered? !

Tate immediately took Raphael's hand. He cautiously glanced at the carved wooden door that had been knocked repeatedly, lowered his voice, and said, "Let's leave first."

For almost half an hour, Raffaele dryly described his past life, which was really lacklustre, and he concluded it in 3 minutes.However, Raffaele still found a topic, that is, to briefly talk about the process of making these things in the house, that is, where did he get the materials and where did he get the inspiration, and the atmosphere is very good.

Raffaele wanted to drag Tate to sleep here, but when he knocked on the door from the outside, hearing the sound, it seemed that he was looking for a secret door, and Raffaele realized that after all, It was someone who discovered his little trick.

Although Raffaele has outstanding talent, the spells he uses are different from those of ordinary wizards, and the effect can be a bit higher.The spell left on the door was enough to confuse ordinary people and machines, but that doesn't mean his spell was foolproof.

As long as there are keen wizards, they can always perceive the magic fluctuations left on the door.

Furthermore, without Raphaele's magic power supplement, the spell can persist for 300 years, which is already a bit of a miracle.

Rafael didn't realize that the person who was knocking outside the door to find the mechanism was not a wizard with keen perception, but a completely ordinary human being, but this ordinary human had a brain that was not so easy to use.

Now the Palace of Holyroodhouse is obviously not peaceful. Although in Raffaele's view, he is taking his lover back to his original bedroom for a while, but if outsiders find out, he may be involved in some troubles.

In fact, Raffaele didn't have much nostalgia for his past. He just looked at Tate and said, "Then what do you like? Take it back together."

Tate blinked slowly, smiled suddenly, and said softly: "I like this place as before, as if waiting for you to come back."

"This place belongs to Raffaele Stuart, I now have Raffaele Harmon." Tate carefully held Raffaele's fingers, the corners of his lips slightly raised, "And I, I want everyone to remember Rafael Stuart."

The former Raffaele should not have left only two records to the world.

The world should marvel at the intelligence and talent of Raffaele Stuart, and pay tribute to His Royal Highness, the best prince of Scotland hidden in the long river of history.

They should remember him and reverence him.

Although a part of Tate wants to monopolize all the beauty of Rafael, he wants the world to see that his Rafael is so good.

Keenly grasped what Tate was thinking, Raffaele couldn't help laughing, and said, "I don't care, dear."

He doesn't care about the world's evaluation, he doesn't care about other people's opinions, so he can find a reason to get sick and go overseas, and he doesn't even care about the status of the Crown Prince of England.And when he arrived in Plymouth, he didn't care that most of the power in the territory was handed over to the previous lord, and he was happy to be a "puppet lord".

Raffaele Stuart stopped the madness of witch hunters and the Inquisition in Plymouth, but only a very small number of people know that Raffaele Stuart did it, and the history books will not One more record.

Raffaele Stuart once massacred countless dark races and established Plymouth's 20-year life in the Garden of Eden. However, except for the dark races who were terrified by him, the ordinary people living in the territory did not know the source of their stable life Under the shelter of that Highness, they didn't even know the existence of alien races in the darkness that were different from humans.

In the eyes of almost all the people in the territory, Raffaele Stuart is the prince exiled by the Scottish royal family to this land.He is not interested in political affairs, but thanks to the support of the previous lord, Stanley Stuart, all the affairs of the territory have not gone wrong.

Of course, some people linked the death of Raffaele Stuart with the chaos in the later period of Plymouth and the endless witch trials, thinking that Raffaele Stuart was not as incompetent as he appeared .

But such a statement was refuted as soon as it was proposed, and its credibility is so low that few ordinary people believe it.

Raffaele didn't care about those things, he just wanted to do some things, so he did them.

He never wanted the gratitude of others.

"But, I care." Tate pursed his lips, looked at Raffaele seriously, and repeated, "I care."

The record in the history book has only one name, only one identity, and a mediocre evaluation. For Tate, this is the anger that wants to tear up the entire history book.And Sabrina Brown, in the same mood as Tate.

The 20 years of stable life in the territory, no one knew that it was the kindness of His Royal Highness Raffaele. Instead, he made up random things in the history books, and poked the hearts of their loyal fans.If the person who compiled the history book hadn't been dead long ago, Tate and Sabrina Brown didn't mind finding him at all and having a good chat with him.

Raffaele looked at Tate helplessly, with soft helplessness in his sky blue eyes.He reached out to lift the broken hair on Tate's face, leaned over slightly, and kissed him on the cheek, and said slowly: "Okay."

Raffaele opened the mechanism of the bedroom, took Tate's hand and walked into the secret passage.

To do nothing is to allow this bedroom, which has been sealed for more than 300 years, to reappear.

This will be a major discovery in British history, and countless historians will be frantically looking for the silhouette of Raffaele Stuart left in that era.

As long as human beings are given a direction and goal, they will always have a glimpse of the situation of that era.

Raffaele Stuart, a seemingly mediocre Prince of Scotland who was forgotten by that era, was the one who was favored by the Emperor of England at the time, and was almost adopted as the Crown Prince and became the future Emperor of England.

The veil of history will finally lift a corner.

Sherlock Holmes frowned, he walked around the corridor on the third floor, his eyes were fixed on the corridor wall inlaid with candlesticks, his blue eyes were shining.

No, this section of the wall should not be solid.

He pulled out Holyrood's floor plan in his mind, and the rooms on the third floor and the second floor confirmed each other.

After a while, Sherlock Holmes strode to the corner of the corridor. Then, he closed his eyes and walked slowly.

Greg Lestrade's eyes twitched, completely unaware of what Sherlock Holmes was up to.

Two-thirds of the way through the corridor, Sherlock Holmes stopped.

His eyes were still tightly closed, and his body slowly turned to the side of the wall.

Greg Lestrade frowned, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

The author has something to say:

#818 The hot detective who didn't catch the murderer but became interested in the disappearing room#

Sherlock: Chamber of Secrets~ It's very interesting~
