Chapter 390 Only One Possibility

"So that's it." Ruby ate the egg and clapped her hands, "All right, let's go!"

Levi smiled and got up to pick up the car key, "Let's go."

Today he didn't let Chester follow, he took Ruby with himself, drove all the way there.

Half an hour later, the car pulled up in front of an old mansion.

Ruby got out of the car and looked at the mansion, which was already empty, and could not help but let

out a sigh, "It's really empty and depressing."

Levi walked around the front of the car and stood beside her, his eyes following her, his tone even:

"After the Grant family fell, no one came here anymore, it's normal for it to become like this."

Ruby was curious: "None of the current descendants of the Grant family have ever come?"

Levi nodded, "Now that the Grant family is scattered, there are not many of them left in the capital."

Ruby could not help but sigh: "Times change."

Without another word, the two walked inside.

The lock on this house was so old that it took effort to open them, and the rusty lock hang to one side,

highlighting the depression of the place.

The mansion was filled with dust.

The windows were also covered in dust, so the sun did not penetrate completely, and only a faint light

shone in so that the mansion did not sink into a dense darkness.

"How does this place look a haunted house ......" Ruby slowed her pace and looked around the large

mansion, muttering in a small voice, "Would Grandpa really put things here?"

Levi stayed by her side, taking out his own handkerchief and handing it to her to cover her nose, while

he casually fanned himself.

"Since Grandpa went to great lengths to store the note in the RS Bank, it shouldn't be a fake, and since

this place is off the beaten track and not many people come here, it's also the perfect place to hide

something, after all, no one would have thought that the ancestral shrine of the Grant family, which has

been deserted, would still have something unexpected hidden inside."

He raised his finger and pointed out the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room, "The ancestral

shrine should be in this backyard."

Ruby looked over in the direction of his finger, then nodded and walked over.

As the place had been deserted for too long, many things had deteriorated and the pulleys on the floor-

to-ceiling windows seemed to be broken, so she pushed them for half a day without pushing them.

"I'll do it." Levi tugged her backwards, "You cover your mouth and nose."

At the sound of the voice, he wrenched at the edge of the window and slid it so hard that the door

made a harsh clang and finally opened.

At the same time, a lot of dust fell from the top and filled the air.

"Cough, cough ......" Even though she was covering her mouth and nose, Ruby still choked and said in

a muffled voice, "This dust is just too much."

Levi pursed the corners of his lips and led her outside.

Bathed in fresh air, Ruby then lowered her hand and exhaled heavily.

"It's true that no one ever comes here anymore, just look at the state of disrepair and the house full of

dust... I have to say, Grandpa really had the foresight to think of this place."

When she finished, she swept up to the small bungalow on her left hand side.

"There, that's the ancestral shrine, right?"

Levi looked over and nodded, "That should be right, there's a plaque on it."

The two walked over together and found the door to the shrine open and frowned in unison.

Ruby's eyes faintly cooled and her voice went colder, "It seems that we were the ones who thought too

simply before, it's not that no one has ever come, it's just that no one has ever entered the mansion

and gone straight to the family ancestral hall."

Levi also did not expect this, his eyes were slightly frozen, puzzled: "Who could be here? And so

purposeful to find the ancestral family shrine here."

Ruby shook her head, a hint of thought flashing through her pupils, "Not sure, but to be able to find this

place so accurately, it seems to be someone who is familiar with the Grant family, or perhaps an old

friend of the Grant family from before."

There was a slight hint of irony in that statement, and she pulled the corner of her mouth and walked

right in.

This ancestral family shrine was no different from those of other families; after entering, it is all an open

space, and in front of the open space, the tablets of the ancestors of the Grant family for generations

were placed.

Only, no one offered joss sticks here anymore, as far as coldness went.

Levi looked around and whispered, "Someone has been here, and it was not long ago, and the Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

footprints are not even covered in dust yet."

Ruby looked in the direction he pointed and said nothing, only following those tracks around the

ancestral shrine.

"It seems that he found nothing." Halfway through the day, she came to the conclusion.

Levi was surprised: "How do you know?"

Ruby nudged at the footprints, "They were all very regular, not concentrated in any particular place, so

it was evident that he didn't stay too long, just turned around and left after not finding anything."

With raised eyebrow, Levi asked again, "And where do you think your grandfather would have hidden

the stuff?"

Ruby pondered for a moment, murmuring to herself, "Since Grandpa hid it here, it would never be a

place where the surface could be easily discovered, and the fact that these people didn't turn anything

over is enough to show that, so this thing must be extremely hidden, maybe there was some kind of

secret compartment here."

As she said that, she remembered something and let out a soft laugh, "The older generation of the

family really likes to engage in these mysterious places, there is also a dark room in the Henderson

family's ancestral home."

Levi nodded and casually said, "Probably this is what all the world's families have, the Finn family has

one too, only I've never been inside."

Ruby blinked and did not ask more questions, but turned her head and carefully surveyed the entire

family shrine, thinking about where there might be a hidden room or a hidden compartment.

Seeing this, Levi also searched and rummaged around.

But after searching around, the two still found nothing.

"Strange, every corner of the place has been gone over and the floor has been touched, there's nothing

that could be hiding anywhere."

Ruby nibbled lightly on the corner of her lips, her brow frowning slightly as she fell into doubt.

Could it be that this information given by Grandpa was a fake?

He might have deliberately written the false contents in consideration that someone would get the

wooden box from the RS Bank?

No, if in that way, it would never be over.

Grandpa had travelled a long way to deposit this message in the RS Bank, and he had kept her mouth

shut and kept it carefully all these years, which meant that the message could not have been false.

And where exactly was this thing hidden?

Her sharp eyes looked around the entire shrine once more, and suddenly, with a flash of light in her

head, she lifted her head and looked upwards.

"Since it's not above or below ground, there's only one possibility ......"
