Omnipotent Mrs. Finn novel Chapter 390

"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?"

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 ......"
