In the early morning, Arthur came to old Isaac's room and told him the entire process of the case. He hid almost nothing except what happened inside the door.
Only a hint of sadness could be seen on the old earl's face. It seemed that at his age, everything could no longer concern him.
This made Arthur feel a little disappointed. He originally wanted to see some new discoveries from old Isaacs.
He always felt that this old man must know many secrets, but from the beginning to the end of the case, he did not help him at all, which was what made Arthur feel very unhappy.
As a reward, the old man gave him a pipe. Although it was old, it was very expensive.
The whole body of the pipe is made of fine briar wood, and is also wrapped with a layer of silver foil. The silver foil is engraved with a five-pointed star pattern, and the cigarette holder is carved from ivory, all white.
Although it has not been used, it has been cared for so carefully that you can tell at a glance that it must be something that its owner loves very much.
Arthur couldn't help but refuse: "This gift is too expensive, you'd better take it back!"
But the old man waved his hand slowly, "Only when something is useful can its value be reflected. Besides, this is not a gift, but a reward, so please don't refuse."
Now that old Isaacs had said so, Arthur no longer refused, and just for a while, the old man seemed to have begun to lose energy again, and Arthur felt that he might not survive this winter.
After bidding farewell to the old man, Arthur and Father Belmont rushed back to the city by car, but Sher still wanted to stay and complete the finishing work.
On the carriage, looking at the driving road, Arthur remembered that the direction of the five-pointed star last night coincided with this road.
He couldn't help but ask Father Belmont: "Do you know that besides calling this road Mile Avenue, is there any other name for it?"
Father Belmont has always had a good sense of Arthur, and he helped him again last night, so when Arthur asked, he immediately thought about it and then said: "It is said that this road was once called the Rose Line. Rosslyn Church is located at the intersection of the north and south meridian. It is the legendary route where King Arthur was buried on the island of Avalon after his death. Therefore, this land is also considered a sacred territory. Rosslyn originally meant rose."
Roses are also from the Rosaceae family. Arthur seemed to understand something, "Is Rose Manor also on this line?"
Father Belmont thought for a moment, then nodded in confirmation. Now Arthur finally understood that the light sealed last night actually followed the rose line.
"I also have a medieval map here. If you need it, you can come to me at St. Giles Church."
Apart from universities, the most preserved and most complete of these ancient documents are only in churches.
Arthur hurriedly thanked Father Belmont for his help, but he had to go to school today. He had been absent from school for more than a week, and he still didn't know how Professor Bell was going to punish him.
Sure enough, the professor started to get angry as soon as he saw Arthur, "Graduation is about to happen, don't you have any plans? The principal has come in person several times!"
Arthur apologized sincerely, "I'm sorry, teacher, I was delayed for a few days at Roslin's place. This won't happen again."
Seeing that Arthur apologized was quite sincere, and he didn't really want to criticize Arthur. He just graduated soon, but Arthur had never decided where he would go after graduation.
In fact, in his heart, Arthur must still stay in the university and become a respected scholar.
There were no better options, and the University of Edinburgh was willing to keep Arthur, so the principal came over several times.
But Arthur's answer greatly exceeded Professor Bell's expectations.
"I want to be a coroner!"
"What?"
Professor Bell suspected that he was hearing hallucinations.
In this era, coroners had nothing to do with medicine, and they were usually held by highly respected people in the county.
Arthur might be able to be appointed coroner with his current reputation, but this would completely delay his achievements in medicine.
"What on earth do you think? Are you going to give up on medicine just because you solved a few cases?"
In fact, Arthur's thinking is very simple. He was a forensic doctor before time travel. He has been exposed to countless cases and accumulated a lot of experience, so coroner is the profession he is most familiar with.
In order to get Professor Bell to agree to his request, he told Professor Bell about several recent cases he had been involved in. Of course, he concealed those involving evil spirits and devils.
Even so, Professor Bell was dumbfounded, but after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't agree with his wishes.
And this job requires Professor Bell's recommendation to have the possibility of success. Seeing that the teacher disagreed, Arthur had no choice but to find a hospital to work.
This is even more impossible. Not to mention that doctors in this era are not so respected. Even if Arthur opened a hospital himself, it would not be as good as him being a scholar in the university.
Moreover, he is likely to become the youngest professor at the University of Edinburgh. With such a bright prospect, how could Professor Bell let him simply give up like this?
In the end, Professor Bell only gave him two options. One was to stay at the University of Edinburgh and become a scholar, and the second was to study at a higher institution.
But to be honest, there are only one or two universities in the UK that can surpass the University of Edinburgh. And in medicine, at least in microbiology, Arthur is already the top person in the world, so he will probably only be able to further his studies. It's just a pretense to gain qualifications.
What Arthur hated the most was this kind of useless thing, but he also knew that the teacher was doing it for his own good, so in the end he could only scratch his head and say that he would think about it again.
Returning to the dormitory that he had not seen for a long time, this familiar environment made Arthur feel a lot more comfortable. Thinking about it, it seemed good to stay in school, but he did not want to become a scientific researcher who only knew about research all day long.
As he lay in bed, thinking about his future, Jabi suddenly ran into the room.
"You really came back. I thought they were lying to me. If you don't come back, I will go to Roslin to find you."
After inheriting the family fortune, Jabi seems to have become more handsome.
"I saw it in the newspaper. Congratulations, you are about to become a Lord. I believe it won't be long before you will become the dream lover of all the British girls."
Unexpectedly, Jabi, who had always considered himself a lover, his face fell down when he heard this, "Don't mention it. There have been so many people visiting me recently, with girls, and I'm already annoyed to death."
"Our great lover is actually afraid of seeing a girl one day."
Jabi shrugged his shoulders and suddenly said to Arthur mysteriously: "I heard that you were originally on the list of knighthoods this time, but it seems that someone said some bad things about it, so your title was removed. "
