Chapter 66 Di Renjie's New Idea

"I didn't mean to pour cold water on you," Joseph looked at Di Renjie and Richard who were in high spirits, and said with a sigh:
"But two gentlemen, if such a huge land really exists or once existed in this world, what kind of power do you think can make it disappear?
"Such a complete and clean disappearance... If it is a disaster such as a meteorite impact, then other lands and continents in this world will definitely be affected, but in fact it is difficult for us to find such traces and evidence in other places, said To be honest, I can't imagine any way to silently erase such a huge piece of land.

"Mr. Watson, Richard has already regarded the 'Lost Far Eastern Continent' as his home and guidepost for his academic life. This problem has become his hope to break through the third level and even the fourth level, but it also limits his progress. Okay, as long as he doesn't solve this mystery for a day, it will be difficult for him to really go any further, and I hope you don't make the same mistakes again."

Joseph looked at Di Renjie sincerely.

"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Joseph," Di Renjie smiled and greeted Joseph. Although Joseph's words were straightforward and sometimes even a little harsh, as long as you calm down and think about it, it is not difficult to feel the kindness behind his sharp words the kernel,

"Geology is not my specialty, so you don't have to worry that I will indulge in Mr. Richard's conjecture, but," Di Renjie turned to look at Richard again:

"I like Mr. Richard's conjecture with all my heart and I will do what I can to help with this wonderful idea if I can."

"Thank you, Mr. Watson," Richard said with some emotion. "In the few months since I've been back in London, you are the first person who really recognized me."

As he said that, the weathered man showed a self-deprecating smile: "Joseph, we have known each other for so long, of course I know that you are doing it for my own good, and there is a high probability that what you said is correct, but...

"But I'm not you, Joseph, I'm not that genius, I'm just an ordinary naturalist, and I've exhausted all my strength to become an extraordinary person... I've already felt the limit of my potential, Maybe it will be difficult for me to step into the third level in my life, if this is the case, what does it matter if the future is locked by this conjecture, maybe, this will bring me a glimmer of hope instead."

After Richard finished speaking, the living room fell into an unspeakable silence. His calm and cold self-analysis hit the hearts of everyone present.

After a while, in silence, Di Renjie raised his hand and patted Richard on the shoulder lightly: "Don't be depressed, Mr. Richard, I believe in you and the existence of the Far East Continent, if you need any help... "

"Your belief is already the greatest help," Richard said with a smile:
"Of course, if there is a need, I will definitely come to the door for help with the cheek."

Di Renjie: "Hahaha, of course, very welcome."

"Okay, gentlemen," Mrs. Stubbs coughed lightly, and reminded: "Maybe you can discuss another topic in private."

"Of course." Di Renjie and Richard said apologetically.

"So, is there anyone else who wants to share or ask for help?" Mrs. Stubbs looked around the crowd.

"I don't have anything to share right now," Patrick said.

"I may not be at my residence in London in the next few days. If anyone needs urgent contact, please contact Mrs. Stubbs and let me know." Angelina looked at the crowd and said, and at the end of her talk, she specifically turned to Di Renjie nodded.

This sentence was obviously specifically for Di Renjie, and it happened that Di Renjie also had a question and wanted to consult Angelina. Since it would be inconvenient for her in the future, it would be better to ask her now.

So Di Renjie asked after sorting out his thoughts a little:

"I have a question about the recent theft of the crown."

As soon as the words came out, they immediately attracted everyone's attention. Obviously, although everyone didn't mention it verbally, they were probably paying close attention to this case in private.

"I wonder if there is anything special about the crown besides its symbolic meaning?"

Di Renjie asked meaningfully.

Although Mycroft stopped his and Sherlock's pursuit that day with a near showdown, he also promised that the crown would return intact after a period of time.

But Di Renjie still felt that there was a deeper truth behind the whole incident.

You must know that, as the royal secretary, Davidson's interests are highly tied to the interests of the royal family, not to mention that in the original conversation, McCaw repeatedly hinted that Her Majesty the Queen was also one of the promoters of this incident.

This makes people wonder, what kind of mentality and reasons did the Queen and the royal family allow this action?

Even if the crown can return intact in the end, the royal family and the cabinet will still have to bear the loss of face; not to mention that once the crown is shipped abroad, the risks and variables will increase dramatically. Mycroft said it seems to be full of confidence , but before the crown is actually taken back, all this is just a promise rather than some kind of reality. No matter how much protection is added, the possibility of losing the crown exists...

This whole operation is undoubtedly a political adventure. Since it is a political adventure, there must be some huge interest weight on the other side of the balance.

Di Renjie previously believed that the weight was the Liberal Party, but when he realized that the Liberal Party was also involved in the conversation with McCoff, he completely overturned his original guess.

And when he broke all the assumptions, suddenly, a brand new idea appeared in his mind.

Although it has been almost a month since he came to this world, he is still limited by the thinking of his previous life. This limitation made him ignore an important factor when thinking about the case - transcendence.

[Perhaps, the loss of the crown is not because of the symbolic meaning it contains, but because of a certain power possessed by the crown itself. 】

And this academic gathering is obviously the best channel for him to obtain relevant information...

"I don't seem to have heard of the other peculiarities," Mrs. Stubbs frowned.

"I don't know either," Angelina shook her head. Although she was Disraeli's daughter, it didn't mean she knew all the secrets about the government.

Joseph spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know either.

This made Di Renjie a little disappointed, but at this moment, Richard suddenly said suspiciously: "I have heard a theory, but I'm not sure if it will help you."

PS: I am very sorry!I went back to my hometown for a physical examination in the past two days, so the update is relatively unstable, but I will try my best to ensure that there are two updates every day~~
