Chapter 614 Mystery
Lincoln knocked again immediately! He was certain that the bottom was hollow! Several others realized this as well.
It turned out to be hollow?” Iowa also went up and knocked.
“Melvin.” Lincoln ordered. “Bring the tools!” Melvin quickly found tools. “Mr. Nash, let me do it!”
“Give it to me.” Lincoln took the tools and pried the mahogany board off with his own hands! The light of the flashlight shone in! It turned out that there was another room in the library! “I’ll go down and have a look.” Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
“Mr. Nash, let me go! I don’t know where it is down here…” Melvin said immediately. “Yes, Lincoln, I’ll go down.” “I’m going down.”
“Lincoln, I’ll go!” Joe, Iowa and Ward spoke successively. Lincoln looked at them and said, “You are all waiting up there.” Then, he walked down the ladder.
The ladder was very stable, but it was so old that it would inevitably make a sound. Below was a dark room, in which there were all kinds of things. Those were all women’s items. Under the light of the flashlight, Lincoln could barely see the shelves not far away, filled with many scrolls, covered with dust and cobwebs. It was only after looking closely that the scroll was old and the paper was yellowed, but it was still well preserved. The rest of the people also walked down the ladder, leaving only Melvin, who was a little older, waiting on top. No one expected that there would be a room at the bottom of this side of the library.
“What are these? They look like antiques.” Ward illuminated them with a light, not daring to touch them for fear of breaking something. Joe said with certainty, “These things are all left by the ancestors, but I don’t know whose things belonged to them. Let’s ask my father to have a look tomorrow morning.” “It belongs to the Queen,” Lincoln said firmly. Joe was shocked and asked, “Lincoln, how do you know?”
He pointed to the mahogany shelves on both sides with a flashlight. One of the books had already been opened by Lincoln.
Joe took a closer look. He saw beautiful handwriting. He could tell that it was written by a woman This was equivalent to a diary, recording some seemingly trivial but very fulfilling daily life. Ward reacted quickly and said, “We are very lucky. We couldn’t find any clues in the library, but we found this secret room!”
Iowa continued, “Looking at it now, it is very likely that the things here belong to the Queen. She is the one who successfully detoxified the Five Posion. Maybe we can find something here!”
Lincoln nodded, and said without hesitation, “Let’s start.” Afterward, several people put on gloves and carefully read through these books. There were so many scrolls, and it would take several days to find the right one.
After Jefferson heard the news, he rushed over, but he didn’t show any surprise.
“The mystery hidden in the library is a secret passed down from generation to generation, and there is no mistake.
“But, no one knows where the mystery is hidden. I didn’t expect that it would be discovered by Lincoln.”
Afterward, Jefferson suggested that experts be invited. However, Lincoln stopped him.
Without reading these books, no expert was allowed to enter the scene! Jefferson could understand Lincoln’s desire to save Zayla. So, he didn’t insist on it. Anyway, the future of the family was handled by Lincoln.
As the successor, it was reasonable for Lincoln to make decisions in advance. Jefferson just told them to be careful and not to damage the antiques.
Afterward, Jefferson prepared to leave with the support of Joe. Suddenly, Iowa said, “I found a useful clue.”
