" Prof. Rodger Edmund Black?", Jason said, " He is a very popular scientist. I have seen him in the newspaper many times. Currently he is some  100 years old ". " Do you know where does he lives now?" Baritone asked. " I don't know that but I have a big bundle of old newspapers in the basement. Lets search in them". 

They searched for the newspapers. "Check it out", John said, " This report says that The great professor Rodger Edmund Black celebrates his 103rd birthday". They searched for more papers. They later found a paper which said, " Prof. Edmund Black has moved to his new villa in Marseille, France".

"This means we have to go to France now". John said. "Anything to find my culprits", Baritone said. They boarded a ship and shipped off to france.

6/7/1745

Marseilles, France

They were in France. They were still on the Docks, there was a big rush there. They got out from there which felt like some few hours. On reaching the area near the villa. They had to ask some people to make sure it was the villa. They asked the guards to open the gate for them. The guards were about to ask them some questions but as soon as they saw the ghost, they opened the gate. They walked in the big garden. At every step, the stone pavement would give a loud noise. As they reached in front of the door, Before we could knock on it, A young highland lass opened the door, she would be some 14 years old. John could see that she had swallowed on seeing Baritone. " Is Prof. Rodger Edmund Black there?" John said. Her voice was trembling and she was very scared to talk but she finally opened her mouth to talk, " Who are you people? " " We have to talk to professor", He said. The girl was very scared but she lead them in. She was so scared that she was literally feeling like she was having a nightmare. She took them to the enormous hall. The Professor was in the middle left reading a novel. Its title was, Pure Science. Well an odd book cause what would a hundred year old man do by studying when he is about to leave this world. The professor could feel the presence of baritone and looked up on seeing at him. He couldn't get scared because he didn't had even enough energy to react. The old man opened his toothless mouth and tried to speak in a voice as old as sand, " I recognized you, Baritone. Too bad you died before me". Baritone couldn't describe his emotions but they could see that was crying . He was crying smoky and shiny tears, This was the first time he cried after dying. " Professor, you are my father after I have no father. I need your help ", Baritone said. 

The person who was confused the most in all of these people was that Scottish girl. She couldn't understand a single sound they were talking about. Professor said to Leo, " Hey little kid, you can explain the whole story to this little girl and you," He said pointing at John, " You explain me everything". After everyone was clear with everything, The professor said," Its hard to tell you all the whole story because I can't talk fluently so I shall tell you all by writing, My dear Darla, please bring me a paper and pen". The girl went to bring. " She is my great grand daughter, Darla Ivenisor Black. Her whole family is dead so she is living with me. How can I live alone in such a big mansion? And my time has come to live in a box ". Darla brought a pen and a paper. The professor begin to write in his dirty handwriting. 

Dear El Baritone,

I am feeling very sad about your death. May the lord have mercy on your  soul. Its hard to put wrong blames on anyone but I feel, I just feel that it may be Remedos von vistress. He was the bully of the college. He maybe the one and the second one was Patrick rawn sagitreous. He was a slave in north America but he escaped and joined the college and he was Remedos's best friend. I can't say for sure but they are the only people I suspect. They both are now great criminals in the Luxembourg.

Yours fatherly, Rodger

" Wow", John said, " Thats agreat suspect right Leo". But Leo's eyes and mind was somewhere else. Uh oh, the most unimaginable thing had happened. Leo was staring at Darla.
