book of old days

Chapter 253 Mr. Minister
When Sean walked out of the door of Martin Warnes' house, the sky outside was already dark, but it wasn't because of the time. It was only past three o'clock at this moment, but a dark cloud blocked the direction of the sun , So the entire Jianbao City was shrouded in the shadow of that dark cloud.

A gust of wind blew past, bringing with it a bit of cold chill that is not often seen in summer, and a trace of bloody smell unique to Butcher Street.

Sean's mood became a little excited for no reason, as if a grand arrangement was about to begin its final performance.

The war is coming, he is very aware of this, and for some reason, when everything is revealed and the crisis is revealed, he no longer has the anxiety of the past.

He quickly crossed the street and hailed a carriage that was parked on the side of the street.

"Go to the Hog's Head."

Fifteen minutes later, the carriage stopped outside an old but lively tavern.

Sean paid the fare and walked in quickly.

"I'm looking for Mr. D," he said to the bartender.

With a cigar in his mouth, the other party nodded as usual after listening to his words, opened a small door behind him, and Sean walked in. It was a narrow and dark passage.

Pass through the passage, push open the wooden door, and inside is a rather comfortably furnished small room with dim lighting. Four people are sitting around a card table playing bridge. These four people are all dressed in black with hats on their heads. , with a revolver in the holster around his waist, even if he was playing cards, he did not relax at all.

As soon as Sean appeared, the four of them immediately looked at him, and two of them reached out to touch his waist.

"Relax guys, I'm Yulia's friend - where is she?"

Three of the four people showed relieved expressions, only a dark-skinned bearded man still had a look of scrutiny.

"May I ask, is there anything you can do with her?"

"It's very important. She entrusted me to help investigate a matter - about Ulysses."

Ulysses?The four of them immediately showed serious expressions, "Please wait a moment." The bearded man said, and asked one of them to report.

Five minutes later, Yulia walked in hurriedly.

As soon as he entered the door, he asked nervously, "Have you found the answer?"

Sean nodded, "That's right, everything has come to light." He glanced at the others, and Yulia waved her hand to let the four of them leave first.

Only then did Sean say, "Ulysses wants to unify the world."

Yulia froze for a moment, and barely moved the corner of her mouth, "This joke is not funny at all."

Sean sighed, "I hope this is a joke." He said, telling everything he found.

Yulia was stunned, her face getting worse and worse, "This, this...you are really not kidding me, this sounds like something from a novel, no, even a novel is not so outrageous. "

She said, looking at Sean's expression, but also realized that all of this was true.

She rubbed her brows, "Damn it, this matter is more terrible than I imagined, no, we must act quickly."

"Do you want to report it to your boss?"

"That's right, this matter must be known to the higher-ups. If Ulysses is really as you said, then my people alone may not be able to solve the problem. Can you come with me?"

Sean nodded: "Of course, after all, I am also a member of the Society of Rationality."

The two left the secret room, and Yulia called several of her subordinates, and the group went straight to the Sword Castle branch of the Society of Rationality.

Although the Society of Rationality is an academic institution in name, its scope of power is no smaller than that of the City Hall of Sword Castle, and even larger in many respects.

The branch of the Institute of Rationality in Sword Castle is located opposite the City Hall of Sword Castle. Just looking at the appearance, the scale and momentum of the two buildings are almost equal.

The two walked into the headquarters of Sword Castle, and Yulia asked some of her subordinates to wait outside. The two walked through the office hall full of office staff, and Yulia showed her special operator badge, and came all the way Arrived, the third floor.

Sean noticed that most of the staff were not official members of the Society of Rationality, they were just ordinary employees. Thinking about it this way, the 'Badge of the Wise' on him is quite valuable.

In fact, along the way, the number of people with badges on their bodies can be counted on one hand.

The two quickly arrived outside the minister's office, but were stopped by several guards.

"This is the minister's office, and idlers are not allowed to enter."

Yulia flashed her ID: "I need to meet with the minister immediately. I have something important to report to the minister."

"I still want to get promoted and raise my salary. If you want to meet, please make an appointment in advance."

Xiao En took out the badge and flashed it, and the man immediately showed a respectful expression: "It turns out that a wise man is here, please wait a moment, I will inform you two."

Five minutes later, the guard came out again, "Please come in, you two, the president is inside."

With a clang, Yulia knocked on the office door impatiently.

"Come in." A voice sounded from inside the door.

The voice was somewhat gloomy and deep, and Xiao En suddenly felt that the voice was familiar. When he walked in, he saw a thin man sitting on a chair with a back, wearing a black robe, and combing his white hair at the temples meticulously. , seems to have a majestic temperament unique to authoritative scholars.

Sean looked at the man's sideburns, and suddenly remembered, it was that man!One of the men in black that Ulysses had met that day after the seeding ceremony.

Unexpectedly, he turned out to be the head of the branch of the Society of Rationality!
Xiao En suddenly smiled wryly in his heart, it really wasn't that simple.

Fortunately, he was wearing a cloak and a hood, and the other party did not recognize him.

"Master President, I have something important to report." Yulia said impatiently.

Yulia was about to report when Sean suddenly patted her on the shoulder, "Let me talk about it." Sean said, winking at Yulia.

"Then, Mr. Wise Man, is there anything I can do for you?"

"Ah, it's like this. Two colleagues from the Nathaniel Branch asked me for a manuscript half a year ago. Now I have finally finished the manuscript, but I don't know how to contact them to deliver it. So I want to find a local Inquire at the branch of the society."

"Nathaniel Branch? I see." The president's expression immediately became less enthusiastic, and his tone became business-like.

"There has always been a lack of communication and contact between the Nathaniel branch and the Brighton branch, and they will not interfere with each other's affairs."
