There are many restaurants near Eggsburg University. The university cafeteria does not provide meals on weekends, so many students or faculty will choose restaurants to eat.

In a good mood today and with the hope of finding a return, Annick decided to have some fun. Anyway, he was about to make money, so he didn't feel bad about spending a little.

Opposite the school's Golden Crown Restaurant is a high-end restaurant. In Annick's memory, only students at the level of professors or students whose families have mines would go in and out of this place. He has never eaten serious Western food on earth, so he decided to spend some time this time.

.

Pushing open the double glass doors of the Golden Crown, and handing his top hat to a waiter wearing a black vest and white shirt, Annick asked as he walked in:

"Are there any free seats today? I came here on a last-minute basis and didn't make a reservation."

There are about twenty tables in the restaurant, most of which are double seats with a dining table. There is a piano in the hall behind the restaurant, and a small string band of four people and a pianist in his forties are playing gorgeous music.

"Yes, there happen to be some empty seats today. Can you take the single seat by the window?" the waiter replied enthusiastically. The waiter guided Annick to the single seat by the window.

The waiter brought a menu and put it on the table, "Can I introduce to you today's special dishes?" The waiter asked while placing the knife and fork, "Thank you, please be sure to introduce your recommended dishes." An.

Nick tried to pretend it wasn't his first time here.

"Today's main course is stuffed roast chicken. The filling is spicy red sausage from Frontenya with fine onions, white beans from the Kingdom of Qinli, thyme and garlic as spices, and olives from the New World.

Cooked with oil, the roast chicken is a selected seven-month-old rooster. The meat is neither old nor tender. After removing the internal organs, the stuffing is stuffed into it. The outer skin is coated with olive oil, sprinkled with pepper and rosemary, and oriental flavors.

Seris Empire’s unique rose salt is roasted over low heat for one hour to achieve a crispy exterior and soft meat. If you can’t finish it by yourself, we also provide a take-away service.”

After taking the menu handed over by the waiter, Annick looked at the roast chicken marked 8 shillings on the menu and felt that it was a bit too expensive, but he had already spent so much money and couldn't help but order it, so he could only nod his head.

A portion.

"What kind of wine are you going to have with the meal? We have the famous Bohr Winery in the Kingdom of Luke to produce excellent wine. The grapes that have been exposed to the sun for a long time are rich in sugar. After decades of storage and fermentation, they have a beautiful color.

The aroma and taste are excellent, and the most important thing is that it only costs 20 pounds. If you don’t finish it today, you can take it away on site or store it in our store, and enjoy it next time you come.”

Even in the Kingdom of Bruguet, the waiters are still like the profiteers on earth who constantly sell you membership cards when you get a haircut, taking the trouble to sell expensive drinks.

It's a pity that Annick is just a real poor student. He scrolled to the bottom of the drinks column to find the cheapest local white wine and interrupted the waiter's promotion.

For appetizer, I ordered oily cherry tomatoes with garlic shrimp, for soup, I chose cream of mushroom soup, and for dessert, I ordered strawberry mousse.

"Sir, your meal totals two pounds, one shilling and five pence," the waiter put away the menu and said to Annick. After hearing this, he had to take out his wallet from his side pocket and took out two one-pound bills and two one-shilling bills.

He handed the banknotes to the waiter and pretended to be generous and said: "No need to change, any extra will be counted as your tip."

"Thank you for your generosity. I will immediately notify the kitchen to prepare dishes for you. I hope you will come to our restaurant often. I look forward to serving you again next time." The waiter got the coins and walked to the kitchen.

But I don't want to be generous at all and I don't want to come again. The tip will eat up the money of my more luxurious breakfast. Annick is used to being poor and complained in his heart.

After finishing the lunch with a feeling of pain, Annick packed away the remaining half of the chicken and white wine and prepared to go back for dinner. A poor man must live like a poor man.

In this life, I may be destined to be poor, and even if I change the world, I will not change my stingy habit.

When I returned to the apartment on South Cross Street at 3 pm, a black-painted carriage stopped in front of the apartment. A silver emblem consisting of a crossed sword and saber and the coat of arms of the Keranger region was painted on the carriage's window.

This badge symbolizes the police agency. Annick was confused and sent the letter written by his mentor to the Gonia Police Department. They won't receive it until tomorrow at the earliest. If they didn't come for the interview, these people came here again.

who.

Opening the door of the apartment, the landlord Mr. Wiles and two men wearing black uniforms and black and white plaid round cloth hats were talking about something. When he saw the door open and came back, the conversation stopped immediately.

.

Mr. Wiles is a well-known old gentleman in the neighborhood and is said to have been the old butler of many important people.

After retiring, he rented out part of the property to poor students like himself. Although the old gentleman had silver hair, he was very energetic. Apart from being strict about cleaning the apartment and not making a mess, he did not deliberately make things difficult for the tenants, so he was very popular among the neighbors.

They had a good reputation. Mr. Wiles pointed to the two men next to him and introduced:

"You're back, little Annick. These two gentlemen are police officers from the Special Situations Division of the Kerange Police Department. I have something to ask you. You must answer the question honestly. I believe these two gentlemen will also be like Count Deui.

A noble character will not deliberately embarrass you."

As Mr. Wiles introduced himself, he winked at him from an angle that they couldn't see, as if to hint at something.

"Good afternoon sir, I am Junior Inspector Pierce of the Special Situations Division. Next to me is Trainee Inspector Fred. We are here to ask you if you picked up any special items in the Eggsburg University Library in mid-May.

, some shameful thieves stole it from the treasury and hid it in the University Library of Eggsburg. If you are lucky enough to pick it up or know its whereabouts, the government will give a reward of 1,000 pounds, but if someone deliberately assists in hiding or destroying it,

I’m afraid it’s not as simple as going to jail. Believe me, sometimes death is really a mercy.”

The tall and thin middle-aged man next to the two policemen, who looked to be in his early thirties, said in a semi-seductive and semi-threatening tone. Only then did Annick notice the epaulettes on their shoulders. The taller one had two silver five-pointed stars.

, there is only one short one. It seems that the silver star indicates the level of the inspector, and the number of stars indicates the level of the officer.

While pretending to think, he sorted out the current situation. The owner of his body on this planet did not know where he got the note from the summoning ceremony to another world. Due to the lack of memory, he could not remember the specific origin.

The two of them did not say clearly and it seemed that they were not sure that they had picked up the paper recording the ceremony. Moreover, the confidentiality level of this ceremony seemed to be very high and could not be known to ordinary people, so they used special items instead.

Maybe what they are looking for is not a ritual at all, or maybe some bold thief has stolen a national treasure.

I didn't break down the door and search my room while I was away. It seems that Mr. Wiles, or the Earl of Duy in Mr. Wiles's words, has a high enough status to make these two inspector-level policemen obediently wait for me here.

"Two gentlemen, I have been busy working on my graduation thesis in May. I mainly borrowed reference books and found a quiet place to write in the library. This can be confirmed by the librarian and my supervisor, Professor Russell.

"

"Indeed, May is the graduation season for major universities." The landlord said helpfully.

"The library also has regulations that do not allow you to take away items other than your own. All books in the collection are only allowed to be read in the library. This is the reason why I often stay there. You can also verify this with the school. It also proves that I cannot send you

The special items in my mouth were taken out of the library. After all, I am just an ordinary person and cannot fly over walls."

Annick paused to observe the facial expressions of the two people, but still did not show any doubts, and then continued.

"Of course, in order to show my innocence, I will hand over my current belongings and ask two people to search my room. After all, I will also attend the interview for the government police position next week. I don't want to have any misunderstandings with the two inspectors.

, As a result, I had the opportunity to become colleagues with you, but they were sent to prison. Of course, if I know the information about this special item, I naturally don’t want to miss the opportunity to make a fortune. Please come in."

Annick could only insist that he did not know about the special items; second, he continued to use the tiger skin as a banner to drag the school and Professor Russell into it; and third, he said that he was just taking the opportunity to observe whether these two knew about extraordinary beings or whether these two were

Extraordinary person. The fourth point is to express his willingness to cooperate with the investigation, and at the same time hint that he may soon become a policeman and is one of his own.

In this way, they would always let down their guard. If they were really looking for that piece of paper, they would have been burned into ashes and mixed with slag.

The materials used in the ceremony were all common items, and some could even be picked up on the roadside. The police had no way of finding him by investigating the materials.

Who knows if this world will treat a time traveler like me to do some strange experiments. Only by being cautious can we protect our way back to the earth.

"Thank you for your cooperation. In fact, we are searching all students who enter and leave the library in mid-May, but we will also verify the information you provided. Now take us to your room."

The shorter Inspector Fred felt a little relieved when he saw that he was so familiar with the general situation. It seemed that he had made the right bet, and the police were just conducting a drag-net investigation.

"The first room on the left is the one upstairs. This is my key." Annick took out the key and handed it to Inspector Fred, followed the two policemen into the room, and took the initiative to hand over the key to show his innocence.

The two policemen searched all the places in the room, and Annick also handed over his coat and wallet inside the coat. Naturally, they found nothing. They even searched the stove for heating water, but they didn't know that what they were looking for had already turned into something.
