Chapter 17 [Late Night Spoiler]

If Mr. Qiu knew what kind of changes the so-called "seed" of power he gave to Roddy would bring to Roddy - or even the world, then would he definitely do that!

Many years later, there is a proverb circulating in the world: A finger changes the world, and a seed causes an empire to collapse.

Of course, the famous wise master Sait didn't know where to find a passage from a philosopher left by the Dandong sage, which can better illustrate the meaning:

Lost a nail and broken a hoof;

A hoof was broken and a war horse was broken;

He broke a war horse and injured a knight;

He injured a knight and lost a message;

I lost a message and lost a battle;

Lost a battle, lose the entire battle;

Lost the entire battle and destroyed an empire.

This passage is very interesting - often an extremely small and insignificant thing can produce unpredictable results when it develops to the end!

That's the "seed" of power that Mr. Qiu gave to Roddy!

Roddy woke up for a long time after accepting Mr. Qiu's finger. He didn't quite understand the meaning of Mr. Qiu's finger, but subconsciously, he understood that he seemed to be a little different.

But he couldn't tell what the difference was.

Nicole had no intention of letting him get in touch with outsiders. After meeting Mr. Qiu, he was immediately taken to Nicole's laboratory building.

"You will live here from today!" Nicole said lightly and prepared to leave.

"Wait... please wait!" Seeing Nicole leaving again, Roddy mustered up the courage and couldn't help but shout.

"Hmm?" Nicole turned around and looked at the big boy.

Roddy slowly took off the mask from his face and sighed: "Miss Nicole... um... master... um... I want to know, why is my face...?"

Nicole looked at him indifferently and said nothing.

Roddy continued, "I know that this face is exactly the same as your brother's appearance. Why did you turn me into your brother's appearance?"

Nicole frowned: "You will know at that time! Now you just need to listen to me!"

"No..." Roddy said carefully: "In fact, I can guess a little bit..." Speaking of this, Roddy hesitated for a moment, and then tentatively more carefully: "You... do you want me to pretend to be your brother... is it... right?"

Nicole's face changed slightly and she said lightly: "Do you understand?"

"Of course..." Roddy curled his lips: "Just look at my face now, can't you guess?"

Nicole sneered a few times and asked back, "Are you not satisfied? You know, my brother is a handsome man with the name of Emperor You. His current face is more than a thousand times better than your original face!"

Roddy shrugged and said lightly: "It's a pity that no matter how good it is, it's not mine!"

Nicole was stunned for a moment. She had never thought that Roddy could have such an idea at such a young age.

Nicole took a few steps closer, looked at Roddy deeply, and slowly spoke: "Do you know, I want you to pretend to be my brother to do me a big favor! Since you guessed it, I won't hide it! I must know what our family is! If this matter is done successfully, I will never treat you badly! Look... you can't go back to the academy anyway! I can send you to the army! Then you can be an officer in the future! This is my compensation for you! Are you willing?"

army?

officer?

Roddy was stunned!

willing?

Of course I do!!!

Who doesn’t know the status of the Tulip family in the military? Their family is the Imperial Marshal’s House! If Nicole comes forward to arrange for him to enter the military, then as long as Roddy doesn’t make a bad fortune in the future, a bright road will be in front of him!!

No matter how you calculate this, it is much better than staying in the imperial capital and being an unknown warrior!

Even if you become a samurai, what can you do? Unless you become a top master - like Mr. Qiu! There are more than hundreds of ordinary samurai in the imperial capital? Most of the people who do better are just to be guards and bodyguards for the nobles, and even more to be miserable, they just fall to the streets to be thugs - just like the things Roddy and the others did last time!

There was already light in Roddy's eyes!

Whose young man doesn’t want to make a name for himself in the future? Especially those born to civilians like Roddy?

Although Roddy didn't say anything, the expression on his face was undoubtedly revealed.

"Then..." Roddy thought carefully and said solemnly: "Okay, I promise you! But... I have another request! It's just a small request!"

"What?"

"My friend..." Roddy said softly: "Miss Nicole... I know that one more groom is of no significance to your family. Can you... let that friend of mine be spared? Let him go back to the academy!"

Nicole smiled laughed: "This is not a big deal, but I warn you that although I can agree to your requests, you should be more careful! The most important thing about this matter is to keep it confidential! You can't tell anyone about pretending to be my brother! If someone else knows, hum..." Although Nicole didn't say what would happen, she just hummed twice, and Roddy immediately closed her mouth and never dared to say a word again.

Oh my God, she even created a pair of rabbit ears for herself! God knows what else can this woman do!

"Okay! From today on, you will play the role of my younger brother! From today on, you are Seit! Because you don't understand my younger brother's habits yet, I will come to train you every day! Keep it confidential at home! Don't let others know your identity! I will declare to the public that you have escaped from the family privately and got caught by me. Now you are locked up here to reflect! This will prevent you from contacting outsiders!"

Roddy nodded: "So I... can I read those books?"

Roddy pointed to the huge bookshelf and densely packed classical books around the room.

Nicole sighed secretly: Since childhood, her younger brother Seit has been locked up here for mistakes and has reflected on it many times, but the guy who doesn't know how to be motivated has always come in and thinks about how to escape, and never takes a look at these books!

Although the boy in front of him was a little stupid, he was a very motivated boy!

What a pity... If my heir to the Tulip Family is really like this, it would really save me a lot of trouble!

Nicole sighed and said, "Yes! You can't touch those things on the second floor! There are also medicines in these bottles! But I have already put a magic restriction on it, and you can't touch it anyway!"

After saying that, Nicole waved her sleeves and turned around and left.

Roddy finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Nicole had indeed left. He looked at the huge bookshelf with joy, cheered, ran to the side of the bookshelf, looking at the huge bookshelf greedily, with excitement in his eyes!

That night, Roddy simply didn't rest. He excitedly carried a pile of books from the bookshelf, and later he was too lazy to run to the edge of the table, so he simply sat cross-legged on the ground with his book in his arms.

In the evening, he simply moved the candlestick in the room to his side, sat next to a pile of books, and leaned against the bookshelf to read books.

Frankly speaking, Roddy has never been so comfortable in his life! Although he likes reading books very much and likes the strange things in the world, unfortunately he has never been able to meet his requirements in the Imperial Academy - you must know that civilians are not allowed to enter libraries that treasure precious books - that is the patent of the nobles!

Just as Roddy was immersed in the emotions of satisfaction and joy, he faintly heard a slight sound of footsteps outside.

As a warrior, Roddy became nervous immediately. He jumped up from the ground and listened with his ears.

Sure enough, the gentle steps were getting closer and closer - Roddy was sure that the person who came was deliberately walking on tiptoe and taking light steps!

Roddy ran behind the door and waited sideways.

After a moment, someone knocked on the door gently, and then a tender voice said timidly: "Master Seit... are you... are you here?"

Roddy was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer.

The door was slowly pushed open, and a weak figure flashed in.

Roddy stared at the person who came, but was startled.

The one who came was the beautiful little maid she had seen in the room during the day! At this moment, she flashed into the door, her face full of shyness and nervousness, and her face turned red. She didn't dare to look directly at Roddy, but she couldn't help but glance at him with the corners of her eyes.

"Master Seit...I...I heard that you were locked up here by the lady again...so...I...I'll give you some...eat...well...eat."

Angel's voice was a little trembling, and her face was so red that it almost oozed out of bleeding. She handed over a basket timidly. Although Roddy didn't look at the things inside carefully, she knew what was inside from the fragrance that came to her face.

Angel looked at Roddy's handsome face, her eyes flashed, but she always showed a bit of obsessed look inadvertently. The look of her eyes was fluttering, but she was always tied to Roddy's body.
