Chapter 190 The Secret of Anwen Garden (1)
Chapter 190 The Secret of Anwen Garden ([-]) The sky is clear and the weather is sunny.The sun penetrated the clouds and shone in the huge flower bed, and the green grass leaves had a light golden streamer.
In the manor, a woman in a white dress is holding a kettle to water the roses in the flowers. On a stone bench beside, two children, a man and a woman, sit opposite each other. They look at each other with their cheeks resting in the same posture, feeling like It's looking in the mirror.
There was the sound of leather shoes bumping against stones from the corridor behind them, and the two children looked up at the same time, only to see a young man led by the completely dressed housekeeper towards the garden.
The two children immediately put away their casual posture and sat up straight. The butler stepped forward a few steps and bowed to salute, "Miss, young master, you are safe."
The boy looked at the man behind the butler, and he didn't look back for a long time, "Butler Peter brought guests back today?"
The butler smiled slightly, "Yes, master, this is the lady's guest."
The girl pursed her lips and said unhappily, "Are you going to send us to another place to play again?"
The housekeeper was at a loss for words.Looking past the two children, he looked at the white figure beside the flower bed, and said respectfully, "Miss, Professor Timothy's assistant is here."
The woman straightened up when she heard the words, handed the kettle to the servant, turned around, her blue pupils reflected a beautiful blue color in the sunlight, like the flowers behind her, with a refreshing pure.
A young man called Professor Timothy's assistant came forward, "Dear Miss Countess, it's a pleasure to see you again."
Nancy nodded upon hearing this, with a deep smile on her lips, "Me too."
Before she could speak, the boy got up from the chair very consciously, "Sister, then I will take my sister back."
"No, you can stay here." Nancy said softly, "I'll take him to Anwen Garden."
Anwen Garden?
The boy and the girl looked at each other, and the eyes were bright at the same time, "Are you going to see your brother?" After a pause, the girl asked cautiously, "Can we go?"
Nancy shook her head and scolded with a smile, "You forgot what your father said?"
The two children lowered their heads, "Remember."
Never enter Anwen Garden privately.
In Leopold's house, Anwen Garden is an existence equivalent to a forbidden place.
This generation of Leopold's family can be said to be full of glory. The Duke has four children in total. The day when the eldest daughter was born happened to coincide with an extremely important Easter for the bishop, and the whole country celebrated it, so on her [-]-day birthday On that day, he was exceptionally awarded the title of earl which cannot be hereditary.Even if she doesn't inherit her father's title of Grand Duke, she can sit on an equal footing with William's father. Strictly speaking, Jiang Lin's father, as a viscount, needs to salute when he sees her.Ten years later, her first pair of siblings were born, a pair of twins.After another six years, the Leopold family finally added a young master.
The first three young masters and young ladies are all very popular figures in the circle, but this young master, almost no one has seen him, and no one has ever dared to mention it to the Duke.
Because they all knew that it was a scar on the Duke's heart, and every time he mentioned it, the Duke's face would become ugly.
The young master was born weak and sick, and was raised in Anwen Garden.
Apart from the father and sister, even this pair of twins have only seen their younger brother less than three times in the past ten years.
Looking at the backs of the two figures, one black and one white, walking along the path towards the place they could never enter, the girl was puzzled and said, "Brother, what secrets do you think there is in Anwen Garden?"
The boy frowned, "Do you remember what a scholar said four years ago before he disappeared?"
The girl was startled.
Every month my father invited many doctors and even scholars from the medical field to Anwen Garden to treat my younger brother. Unfortunately, it has been ten years and I have not heard of any progress.
But when all the doctors and scholars came out of Anwen Garden, they kept silent about the things inside.
Once, a certain genetic engineer who came to Leopold's house had a party with his friends. When he was drunk, he only said one sentence when talking about Anwen Garden: "It's really Anwen!"
The next day, reporters from various news agencies crowded downstairs of his house, wanting to interview him about what it means to be "truly worthy of being An Wen", but this engineer seemed to have evaporated from the world, and he was never found again.
Since then, no one has mentioned the matter of An Wenyuan.
"Anwen..." the girl murmured thoughtfully, and then asked loudly, "Peter, do you know what Anwen means?"
The footsteps of the old butler who was about to leave stopped in place. He turned around and bowed, showing a kind and kind smile, "Miss, Anwen is translated from a foreign language. The original annwyn means the land of fairies and the blessed land." .I hope the gods can bless the young master and recover to health as soon as possible."
The boy's eyes suddenly darkened a few degrees. After the housekeeper left, the girl realized that her brother's expression was a little strange, and she couldn't help asking, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"
"annwyn is an ancient Celtic language." He paused, "It has another meaning besides Paradise."
"What do you mean?"
"Hell... the underworld."

After passing through the gate wall of Anwen Garden surrounded by tall rose branches, the temperature of the air has cooled down.
Unknowingly, the haze in the sky covered the sun, the young man shuddered, and followed the noble countess, but saw that her expression was normal, without the slightest ups and downs, and the smile on her lips was always on. There, never fading.
"What progress has Professor Timothy made?" she asked lightly.
The assistant hurriedly said: "There is no technical problem. After many experiments, we have obtained a more reliable method than using crispr-cas9."
"Multiple experiments?" Nancy smiled softly, "How many of the experimental samples I bought for you are left?"
The assistant wiped the sweat from his forehead, "This...for now..."
Nancy's smile turned cold, and the whole person was immersed in the heavy atmosphere of Anwen Garden, showing an inexplicable chill, "100 live experiment samples, all of them died? No wonder Timothy dared not come to see me, I I warn you, you must be cautious when using medicine on my brother, if there is any problem with his body, you cannot bear the responsibility!"
In an instant, the woman's face seemed to be engraved with some kind of cruelty that wanted to torture people to death.
But when the assistant looked up again to see clearly, there was only a majestic but polite smile on that delicate face, "Forget it, just use it up when you run out, be careful to sail for ten thousand years. It's just an experimental sample... Just go buy some and come back."
Anyway, now that there are so many war-torn and impoverished countries, it is not difficult to do this kind of business.
"Miss Countess, will it be too cruel for us to do this?"
"Cruel?" Nancy looked down at the weedy ground under her feet, read his words carefully twice, and smiled, "The gods didn't arrange for them to be born in a happy and peaceful country, if I don't buy these children, Sooner or later, they will be caught as victims of political struggle, or accidentally die in the hail of bullets, compared with this, isn’t the contribution of dedicating to science greater and more meaningful?”
She walked forward while talking, "Professor Timothy is my most trusted professor. He is willing to send you to see me. You must also be his right-hand man. In this matter, what should be said and what should not be said, you Have a sense of proportion in your heart.”
"Of course, Miss Countess." If this matter gets out, not to mention the secret experiment they are doing in violation of international law, just the fact of buying and selling children from war-torn countries is enough to destroy everyone on this ship.
Nancy slowly approached the last door in Anwen Garden. When she opened it, the smell of various disinfectants and nutrient solutions inside was very pungent.
Although he is Professor Timothy's right-hand man, he has been involved in genetic engineering experiments in an outside laboratory before, and this is the first time he has come to this mysterious Anwen Garden.
Seeing the scene inside, the assistant couldn't help but widen his eyes in astonishment, and his body began to tremble involuntarily.
And the countess in front of her was calm, as if she had already gotten used to it.
"Why, did it scare you?" Nancy smiled back, her tenderness was terrifying.
The assistant swallowed, "Miss..."
Nancy pressed a button, and an impenetrable metal wall immediately fell from the ceiling, blocking the assistant's view from continuing to visit.
"Don't look at it if you're afraid, Professor Timothy is surrounded by you..." She thought for a while, as if she was trying to decide what words to use, "an assistant who doesn't know much about the world."
The assistant knew that what the Countess really meant was that he had never seen the world.
But is there anyone in the world who separates the living body from the organs, drains the blood through catheters, and soaks the whole body in nutrient solution?
This is tantamount to being dismembered and dismembered!
Just as he was thinking, the servants stationed outside Anwen Garden suddenly walked in and said to Nancy: "Miss, Butler Peter said that an Asian woman who called herself Zijin came to visit you."
Nancy raised her eyebrows, showing a slightly surprised look, "I haven't looked for her yet, she came to me first, huh." Nancy looked at the assistant and asked, "I've finished what I told Timothy ?”
The assistant hurriedly replied: "It was finished this morning, miss."
Nancy smiled slightly at the servants, "I'll go right away after changing clothes, and invite the distinguished guests in first."
It's just in time.
