Chapter three hundred and ninety-ninth handwritten notes
"Pendant? Could it be that the experiment was successful because the pendant was added?" Allen couldn't help thinking in his heart as he looked at the pendant in Dracula's memory.
"What exactly is that pendant? Why does it have such an effect?"
Dracula's memory could not find any information related to it at all. Alan waved his hand and stopped the rune array. Alan found Victor's notebook again, hoping to find information about the pendant on it.
Finally, in a diary, Allen found the origin of the pendant, which was obtained in a thrift store in London.
Victor Frankstein was once a member of the Royal Academy of Sciences. The talented young scientist was once the darling of the Royal Society. However, this scientist was expelled and driven out by the Royal Academy of Sciences because he studied some taboo knowledge and conducted some evil experiments.
Overnight, this rising star in the scientific world turned into a miserable dog, and there was no place for him to stand in the scientific world of the Western world.
The incomparable Victor wanted to leave the land and go to the east, but his actions were known by Dracula, who was far away in Romania. Count Dracula sent him an invitation letter. Victor, who was already desperate, went to Romania without any hesitation and completed his experiment in this backward area.
He successfully used various organs of dead bodies to create a life.
"It seems that if you want to figure out the pendant, you have to go to London." Allen closed Victor's notebook and walked out.
......
The capital of Britain, London.
As the capital of the most powerful country in the world in this era, the environment in London is not as beautiful as imagined. The climate here is humid, the fog is very large, and the air is filled with the smell of sulfide.
As an industrial center, it consumes a huge amount of coal every day. Compared with the weather in Romania, it is even more gloomy. The Thames River, which passes through the city, is now black and smelly to drink water. This is the sewage ditch of the entire city.
A figure passed through the sky and landed on the spire of a church.
Allen overlooked this giant city full of British style. At this time, London was bustling with traffic and the air was filled with horse dung. Although it was the capital of the most powerful empire of this period, the living environment here was very poor.
Sewage flows, the manure seen everywhere on the roads is also busy, and the same busy port is still in Victorian London, which is the city's strongest period.
This is the pinnacle of the British Industrial Revolution and the peak of various cultural and economics, where various schools collide and merge with each other.
West London is the British royal palace, the residence of the Prime Minister, the Parliament and the government, East London is the industrial area, South London is a mixed area of industry, business and residential areas, where Victor gets the pendant is located.
The streets were noisy and lively, neatly dressed, civilized hats, and civilized sticks were walking in a carriage. The streets were mostly ordinary workers with worn-out clothes and faces. The merchants came and went with servile servitude, and the whole of London seemed extremely busy.
Allen passed by them quietly, and then followed the information in his notebook to find the thrift store.
It went smoothly. Alan found the thrift store without much effort, and then walked in. The store was not big, and all kinds of erotic goods were neatly piled up in the house. It was not as narrow and messy as I thought. The store was small but clean.
"What do guests need?" An old man in his fifties walked out and saw Alan, and immediately greeted him.
"I'm George, the owner of this thrift store, what do the guests need to order?"
"Have you seen this pendant?" Allen took out an envelope and handed it to George.
I opened the envelope with some confusion and took out a picture from it, with a beautiful red gem pendant painted on it.
"This thing is a bit familiar, so I think about it. When people get old, they have a bad memory." George said with a look in the picture.
Alan smiled slightly, reached out and took out a few gold coins and placed them on the table.
Seeing the golden gold coins George smiled: "Dear guest, I remembered that I have indeed seen the garnet pendant on it."
"More than a year ago, I had sold this garnet pendant to a strong man."
"Where did you get that garnet pendant?" Allen nodded and continued to ask.
"This garnet pendant was obtained when I was young, when I was a trip to Gaul." George looked at Allen and continued: "Guests like this garnet pendant? I have other similar things here. Do guests want to take a look?"
"Did you get it in one place?" Allen's eyes suddenly turned out to be the same when he heard it.
"Uh, not, these are obtained somewhere else."
"Take it out and let me see it." Allen was disappointed when he heard it, but he was still ready to take a look.
Soon George walked out of the house, holding a wooden box with good workmanship: "The guest is a garnet pendant, which is better in color than the one." Then he handed over the box.
Allen took the wooden box and opened it. There were three garnet pendants the size of dove eggs inside. The three pendants were inlaid with silver jewelry, which looked pretty good. But Allen was disappointed when he took a look. There was nothing special about these garnet pendants, even some ordinary garnets.
After picking it up and checking it, Allen put it back.
"Are there any other garnet pendants?" Allen asked again.
"I'm sorry, there are only these ones." George looked at Allen with some confusion: "Guest, are you not satisfied with these garnets?"
Allen shook his head in disappointment.
"Then where did you get the garnet pendant in Gaul?" Allen asked, putting down several garnet pendants.
"I bought it at a stall in Paris." George answered Allen's question despite his doubts.
"Then can you find that person now?"
"I'm sorry, sir, that happened more than ten years ago. Besides, it was a small vendor. Who knows where he would be now? And I've long forgotten what that person looks like for so long." George said helplessly, spreading his hands.
"But I remember that I bought a note with this garnet pendant at that time." George said as if he suddenly remembered something.
"Note? Where is it? Show me." Alan raised his eyebrows, and he was about to give up, but he didn't expect there would be news.
