The only people who could influence Arthur's ennoblement and resent him were the Harlem and Charteris families.
But he doesn't care. Anyway, the nobility now is just a title, unlike before there was a fiefdom.
Arthur didn't care, but Jabi felt like he was getting the short end of the stick.
He couldn't help but suggested: "I think you should go to London with me and be interviewed there. The newspapers will definitely mention you and why you were not knighted. I believe that Her Majesty the Queen will handle this matter correctly under the pressure of the public." Yes."
Arthur looked at Jabi in surprise. He felt that he had underestimated his friend before.
Unexpectedly, he could actually figure out how to inspire the masses. This method has great potential for becoming a politician.
"It's a good idea, but I really don't care much about the title, so don't worry about it anymore. But have you ever thought about what you want to do after graduation?"
Jabi rubbed his head exaggeratedly, "This is a very difficult question to answer. You must know that for a rich person like me, perhaps the biggest task in this life is to spend all the money."
Arthur couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "Fortunately, Scheel didn't come back. Otherwise, if he knew about your mentality, he would definitely regard you as a worm among the nobles."
Jabi curled his lips, "That old-fashioned guy, he should have been born in the Middle Ages."
Not to mention, with Xiel's bravery and loyalty, in the Middle Ages, he might actually become a knight who would go down in history.
"He didn't come back?"
"No, things in Roslyn Town are very troublesome this time, and he will probably stay there for a while."
Speaking of Roslin, Jabi was immediately interested. Arthur had nothing to hide from him. Apart from the gate to hell, he told him all the previous cases.
After hearing this, Jabi was so scared that he covered his chest, "Fortunately, I didn't go, it was really scary. Arthur, I advise you to stay away from these weird things in the future!"
Before knowing about the seal, Arthur didn't want to get involved in these things, but now he has an extra responsibility.
"Arthur, are you going to stay in school after graduation?"
Jabi and Professor Bell almost thought the same thing, "If you stay at the school, I can donate money to build a branch of the University of Edinburgh in the new town, or how about just calling it Doyle University?"
Jabi's proposal moved Arthur very much, but he still refused: "You can donate to the college, just use my name! And I haven't thought about it now. Originally, I wanted to be a coroner, but Professor Bell does not agree with my request."
"Why do you want to be a coroner?"
Jabi also felt very incomprehensible, "If you really don't want to stay in college, why don't we open a pharmaceutical factory together."
Arthur rubbed his brows speechlessly, "Let's forget it! I have no interest in business."
"How about traveling around the world? We can be like Columbus and discover a new continent."
Arthur couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth twice, feeling that Jabi's suggestions were particularly unreliable, but when you think of his current assets, it seems to make you feel that it is not as difficult as you imagined.
The two got together and chatted until the evening. Originally, they wanted to go out for a big dinner together, but Arthur received an invitation from Professor Bell.
Although Professor Bell is single, the college still assigned him a small single-family building and a large yard. In addition to some rose plants, there is also a small poppy garden.
Poppy is a project that Professor Bell has been researching for almost twenty years.
The white petals and dark green buds look like a smiling skeleton from a distance.
"This flower is beautiful and can relieve pain and calm the nerves, but you'd better use it correctly, otherwise it can also be very dangerous."
Professor Bell saw Arthur stopping in front of the poppies and walked out of the room.
"The French call it the flower of remembrance, and the white poppy symbolizes purity, hope and mourning."
Speaking of poppies, Professor Bell's mood suddenly dropped.
"Are you mourning your loved one?"
Arthur couldn't help but guess.
"It's my daughter. Because of her childhood illness, I started studying poppy."
With that said, Professor Bell waved, "Come in first! Dinner is ready."
There were no other guests tonight. The maid left after serving the food. Arthur brought a bottle of whiskey as a gift, which was also Professor Bell's favorite drink.
Professor Bell didn't seem to be in high spirits tonight, so Arthur joined him for a drink. During the meal, Professor Bell asked him many times about the case. Arthur immediately noticed that Professor Bell seemed to have something on his mind.
I couldn't help but ask: "Teacher, have you encountered any difficulties?"
Under the candlelight, Professor Bell's expression looked very sad.
"You are really a smart kid. I was really shocked when I heard how you solved the case. So there are some things that I want you to analyze for me."
Arthur hurriedly said: "Teacher, please tell me."
"What I want to talk about is actually my daughter Alex. I took her to London for medical treatment 10 years ago. She was only 13 years old at the time. She suffered from constant toothache, so I planted poppies to relieve her pain."
Arthur couldn't even imagine using poppy for long-term pain relief, and toothache was not necessarily a tooth problem, it was probably just a symptom.
Sure enough, I heard Professor Bell continue: "My friend in London diagnosed that she may have congenital cervical spondylosis, and the toothache is just a related phenomenon."
Speaking of this, Professor Bell sighed helplessly, "Medicine is so wonderful, isn't it?"
Arthur didn't think there was anything magical about this. He could only say that in this era, all kinds of science were still in their infancy.
"It was precisely because I took her to London that time that she was kidnapped."
"Kidnapping?"
Arthur was shocked and asked hurriedly: "Have you received the ransom amount requested by the other party?"
"That's not true. They only asked me to meet at one place."
With that said, he handed the prepared note to Arthur.
This was a piece of brown envelope paper, which was kept very carefully. When Arthur opened the note, he saw that it read: Professor Bell, your daughter is with us, please come to 18 Broadway to meet her.
Arthur couldn't help but be a little confused. It didn't look like a kidnapping letter, and wasn't that near 18 Broadway? Scotland Yard?
Arthur couldn't help but asked hesitantly: "Did you call the police?"
"The police were called, but in order to prevent my daughter from being harmed, I did not tell the police about the matter. But I went there as agreed, but I did not see my daughter. And from then on, the gangsters continued to They haven’t contacted me either.”
