Man in the old days, Lord of the Seven Sins

Chapter 65 The Legend of the Cat God

The old library of Imperial College London, by the window.

Rhodes flipped through a few books about the Ghoul Church that Margaret found, and at the same time recorded the information he needed in his notebook.

Margaret was sitting beside Rhodes, translating a manuscript written in an ancient language obtained from West.

This manuscript supported West to complete some of the forbidden experiments, but the problem also appeared here. There was only the first half of the manuscript, and according to West, the second half fell into the hands of one of his juniors.

Margaret put her notebook in front of Rhodes, which recorded what she wanted to say.

"Rhode, I have already translated this manuscript, and all that remains is to find the second half of the manuscript. Perhaps, we can really help West revive his lover."

Rhodes narrowed his eyes, picked up a pen and wrote in the notebook.

"I encountered something when I was dealing with my grandfather's patients. In a small town called Harlow, a group of ghouls appeared. You know who went to that town before the group of ghouls appeared? Yet?"

Curiosity flashed in Margaret's eyes, and she picked up a pen to write in her notebook.

"who is it?"

The scent of bee flower-flavored shampoo came from the tip of his nose, and Rhodes looked down at Margaret, who was leaning almost half of her head on his chest, with an inexplicable smile on her face.

Margaret also noticed that her posture was a little disrespectful at this time. She sat up straight in embarrassment, and at the same time did not forget to glance at Rhodes, hoping that he would not notice her disrespect.

But Margaret turned her head carefully, and what she got was Rhodes' smile with an inexplicable meaning.

Margaret was even more embarrassed.

"It's a doctor."

Rhodes wrote in his notebook at this time.

"Could that doctor be West's younger brother?"

Margaret's mood suddenly changed from embarrassment to excitement when the word doctor appeared.

She actually blurted out the words in her heart.

In the silent library, Margaret's voice echoed at this moment.

Her actions made her the object of everyone's attention.

Margaret looked quite annoyed at this moment because of her actions.

She would never show such demented behavior at all, what happened today?
Why is there a strange emotion mixed with tension?
Margaret felt that her state was very strange.

"It is indeed very possible."

Rhodes stood up and responded to Margaret.

His actions attracted all the attention from Margaret to himself.

"Sorry everyone, my friend is just a little excited, and please forgive her for being rude."

With a smile on his face, Rhodes sincerely apologized to the displeasure and frowns of the people around him.

Rhodes' words and deeds are full of gentlemanly demeanor.

The people around did not stare at Margaret with their attention.

At this time, Rhodes suddenly approached Margaret's ear and whispered:

"Miss Margaret, let's go have lunch and leave for Harlow town in the afternoon."

"Well"

Looking at the tall figure who walked out of the library first, Margaret's ears turned red, she packed up her things, and followed with small steps like a little daughter-in-law.

Walking behind Rhodes, Margaret looked at the tall figure of Rhodes in front of her, and murmured:
"Thank you."

"what?"

Rhodes turned around suddenly.

"Thank you for helping me out."

Boom!
Because Margaret had something on her mind, she didn't notice that Rhodes stopped, and her whole body directly bumped into Rhodes.

"careful!"

Rhodes put his hand around Margaret's waist to prevent her from falling.

After Margaret stood still, Rhode let go immediately.

"Sorry for making you almost fall."

Rhodes expressed his apology.

"No, nothing. It's okay."

Margaret felt that she was a little hot at this moment, and her head was dizzy, but the strong touch still remained on her waist.

"In order to express my apology, please eat something delicious."

Rhodes suddenly said mysteriously.

"delicious!?"

Hearing that there was something delicious, Margaret immediately got out of the daze just now, and looked at Rhode expectantly.

"Hey, come with me, I've prepared it for you."

"Uh-huh!"

In the afternoon, the weather gradually cleared up.

In the garden of Imperial College, beside a bench under a sycamore tree.

A chubby orange cat was guarding a canvas bag, and at its feet was half a small dried fish leftover.

The so-called taking people's money, eliminating disasters for others, eating people's food, and working for others.

As a mature stray cat, Fat Ju naturally has his own way of doing things.

Its performance service level and trustworthiness are among the top among those peers who steal food at every turn.

"Meow!"

Faced with three stray cats asking for food in the canvas bag.

Fat Ju bowed his back, cursing in his mouth.

Even a British short poked its head out to force a surprise attack, and was directly beaten by Fat Ju with a meowing punch.

Until the owner of the canvas bag arrived, Fat Ju looked down at the three fleeing stray cats in a victorious attitude.

"Meow!"

Rubbing Rhodes' thigh as if asking for credit.

Fat Orange longed for the food in the canvas bag.

"Good performance, this is your reward."

Rhodes put a small box of cooked beef leftovers from the canvas bag on the side of the bench and opened it.

"Is this yours? Rhodes."

Margaret looked happily at the delicacies that Rhodes took out of the canvas bag.

"Burgundy red wine stew, this is for you." Rhodes glanced at Fat Orange. "It followed by itself. I met this guy at the square in front of the Administration last time."

"Meow?"

Fat Orange ate the delicacies in the food box, and felt that the two humans were talking about him, so he raised his head and glanced at them.

"I heard from my brother that there used to be a secret sect in our old London that worshiped a cat god.

They walk in the dark, hunting the cat hunters.

Then one day, the leader of this secret sect held a sacrificial ceremony. In order to let the cat god descend, he sacrificed the lives of himself and all the believers, and the cat god really descended! "

While eating, Margaret told the legends she had heard.

"and after?"

Rhodes glanced at Fat Orange, and thought that this guy's ears were pricked up, as if he was really listening to Margaret telling this story.

"Later, the cat god came and slaughtered all the cat hunters. In the end, because he had nothing to do and couldn't return to his former world, he could only choose to wander in old London."

"And do you know what the posture of the cat god looks like after it descends?"

"how is it like?"

Margaret pointed to the fat orange at Rhodes' feet who was listening carefully.

"This guy."

Rhodes looked up at the fat orange with a proud look, and wondered if this guy was possessed by some demon, so smart.

Rhode picked up Fat Orange, and gave it a hard rua on the head.

"Actually, it only needs to see if there is a lightning scar on its forehead. If this guy is really a cat god or a descendant of a cat god, there is a lightning scar in the middle of his forehead. This is what the legend said. told."

He does not mean that.

Rhodes carefully checked Fat Orange's forehead.

He narrowed his eyes.

"Margaret, the lightning scar you are talking about is not this one?"
