Having decided to postpone his plan to meet "Queen Mystic" Bernadette Gustav and collect Roselle the Great's diary, Lin Ruo thought for a moment and naturally looked at Bornova, saying:
"Bornova, there's something I'd like to ask you to do."
"What is it? Uncle Lin Ruo, please tell me." Although he didn't know what Lin Ruo wanted him to do, Bornova waited earnestly for the former to speak.
"It's like this, help me collect your father's diary, which is commonly known as Emperor Roselle's Mysterious Notes." Lin Ruo said, and there was a reason why he wanted Bornova to help him collect Roselle the Great's diary.
On the one hand, as the son of the Great Emperor and an angel of the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery, he has a natural advantage in collecting Roselle the Great's diary.
On the other hand, this matter is related to the Great Emperor himself. Although Lin Ruo and Bornova are not very familiar, Lin Ruo doesn't have to worry about anything going wrong by entrusting this matter to him.
Although, strictly speaking, Huang Beibei has more diaries… Lin Ruo complained in his heart.
"Father's diary?" Bornova was stunned for a moment. He looked at Lin Ruo with some surprise, hesitated for a second, and asked, "Uncle Lin Ruo, can you understand your father's diary? Do you know the language your father invented?"
"Surprised?" Lin Ruo didn't answer directly, but asked back.
"A little." Bornova nodded honestly, then hesitated and said, "Uncle Lin Ruo, since you know that language, can you teach me?"
As the youngest son of Roselle the Great, how could Bornova not be curious about what his father wrote in his diary.
Teach you?
If I really teach you, the Great Emperor will die with his eyes closed… No, maybe you'll break with the Great Emperor directly.
Lin Ruo complained in his heart, while shaking his head without hesitation, saying: "Sorry, I can't teach you that language… Perhaps one day, you can ask your father yourself."
Bornova was immediately disappointed.
Lin Ruo looked at his disappointed expression, thought for a moment, and added: "However, if there are any chapters you particularly want to know about, I can tell you the general content, as a reward for helping me collect Roselle's diary."
As for what to do if the content of those chapters is embarrassing… Cough, anyway, it's not him who's embarrassed!
Since Roselle the Great dared to write anything in his diary, he can't blame others for the embarrassment.
Moreover… Thinking of Klein releasing the "Transmigrators" from the cocoons hanging on the Sefirah Castle in the original book, Lin Ruo's smile suddenly became brighter.
Anyway, they're going to be embarrassed sooner or later, so they might as well die early!
Bornova's eyes lit up slightly, and he sincerely said, "Thank you, Uncle Lin Ruo."
"So you agreed?" Lin Ruo asked back.
"Of course." Bornova nodded, then hesitated, and pulled out a necklace from his collar. The pendant on the necklace was a hollow metal ring with two Chinese characters squeezed together in the middle.
He took off the necklace with one hand, handed it to Lin Ruo, and asked, "Uncle Lin Ruo, do you know what this means?"
Lin Ruo's eyes immediately fell on the pendant, paused slightly, and then said:
"Hometown."
His pronunciation was standard Chinese, clear and accurate.
"Hometown?" Bornova repeated the somewhat strange word, imitating Lin Ruo's pronunciation, and then asked, "What does this mean?"
"You can understand it as hometown." This time Lin Ruo used Loenese. The pronunciation of hometown in Loenese is naturally different from Chinese, but the meaning is the same.
Bornova immediately seemed thoughtful, but confusion was vaguely visible in his expression.
Obviously, he couldn't understand why Roselle had such complicated feelings for the word "hometown."
After all, in Bornova's opinion, Roselle's hometown was in Intis, and he had always been in his hometown, so why would he show a lost expression because of "hometown."
Lin Ruo didn't explain, but took the initiative to start a conversation and chatted with Bornova for a while, and gave him the way to summon his messenger, and then chose to say goodbye with Klein.
After all, he had already understood what he needed to understand. Lin Ruo didn't want to talk about sensitive topics with Bornova, such as the upcoming conspiracy in Backlund. Continuing to talk would become awkward, so it was better to end it early.
They weren't that familiar after all, and their intersection was only because of Roselle.
After returning to the Sherlock Detective Agency, Lin Ruo threw himself on the sofa and rubbed his temples with a headache.
Although he had hardly recovered any memories, Lin Ruo could still analyze a lot of things based on the information given by Bornova and the voice he had heard before.
For example, he was really deeply involved in Roselle's affairs back then.
For example, he now strongly suspects that he helped Roselle with some backhands.
"If one day, I find out that Roselle was actually locked in a small dark room by me, removing corruption while rushing to write, that would be hilarious!"
After slandering in his heart, Lin Ruo then looked at Klein and said with a smile: "I'm amazing, right? With Bornova as a channel, we won't have to worry about Emperor Roselle's diary in the future."
"Amazing." Klein gave a word of cooperation, and asked curiously: "Lin Ruo, is Roselle really not dead?"
"He probably really isn't, but I don't know the specifics, after all, I have amnesia." Lin Ruo nodded and continued: "But finding the Great Emperor is not urgent, at least wait until my strength recovers a bit more, and I remember more before we talk about it."
Although he promised Bornova to help him find his father, Lin Ruo naturally couldn't rush in now.
After all, we have to consider the worst-case scenario. If the Great Emperor's current situation is the same as in the original book, or even worse, wouldn't we be delivering food by rushing over? We might as well wait a little longer.
Klein naturally agreed with this. He remembered something and took out the "Lucky Brooch" that Bornova gave him, and said: "What about this?"
This "Lucky Brooch" that Bornova gave to Klein is indeed a good thing. Although it is not made of Beyonder characteristics, it can be said to be equivalent to a Beyonder item of Sequence 5 level because it uses a lot of spiritual materials and the manufacturer's craftsmanship is very superb, but it has a time limit.
"Why don't you wait until you have a marionette in the future and let your marionette use it?" Lin Ruo glanced at him and suggested.
Although Klein himself will not be affected by the luck of this level of mystical items, his marionette does not have this restriction.
"Marionette?" Klein was stunned for a moment and began to seriously consider the feasibility of Lin Ruo's words.
Lin Ruo sat up again after lying down for a while, stretched his waist, and said: "By the way, didn't I say I was going to see Mrs. Doris for treatment before? There's no time like the present, let's do it today, so I won't forget it later."
