What is the real history in Black Butler?

Interpreting the Code of "Black Butler" - History

"Black Butler" is indeed a gorgeous work. I watched it over and over again like I was obsessed. . When I first started watching it, I had the urge to review British history. In fact, the world of "Black Butler" is indeed full of "codes" in British history, so I came up with this idea to involve it. The idea of ??enumerating passwords one by one.

Code 1, Faust

Although "Black Butler" is a typical Japanese comic, it completely abandons the Japanese social background and puts Britain at the end of the 19th century serves as the background of the entire story, and the frame of the story of selling one's soul to the devil comes from the ancient German legend--Faust. Most people may have heard of the famous work "Faust" by the German writer Goethe. In fact, long before Goethe, the famous British Renaissance playwright Christopher Marlowe had already created his play based on this legend. The masterpiece "Doctor Faustus", from this point of view, the framework of the story can barely have anything to do with Britain. My college textbook "Selected Readings in British and American Literature" introduces "Doctor Faustus" as follows: "As a masterpiece of the British Renaissance, its ideological core is humanism. It praises human beings' pursuit of knowledge, power, beauty and joy. "The passion also reveals that human beings are unable to realize their lofty ideals due to the cruel social reality, moral order and the limitations of the times." I don't know if this evaluation can explain that Dr. Faustus sold his soul to the devil in exchange for realizing his personal wishes. It was the right thing to do, but no matter what, the doctor ended up with a tragic ending because he sold his soul to the devil. I have always wanted to know if the doctor regretted it, but I really can’t bring myself to tell this too old story. I watched it from beginning to end, so I still don’t know, but if it were me, I would never regret it. Just like Charles, who willingly accepted the deal, maybe the tragic ending was just a momentary hesitation for me. If I could start from the beginning Having been here, I would still choose to sell my soul to the devil and realize my grand ideal.

Password 2, Jack The Ripper

If you have watched the movie "From Hell", you will not be unfamiliar with this Jack the Ripper. I was also the first to read it. That film sheds light on this enigmatic true event in British history.

The beginning and end of the incident was that between August 7 and November 9, 1888, at least five prostitutes were brutally murdered in the Whitechapel area of ??London's East End. The murderer wrote letters to relevant units many times to provoke him, but he was never brought to justice. His bold crime methods, which were repeatedly exaggerated by the media, caused panic in British society at that time. To this day he remains one of the most notorious killers in European and American culture. The Ripper's crimes were concentrated near Whitechapel in the East End of London. This was a famous immigration center at the time, with tens of thousands of immigrants from as far away as Russia and Eastern Europe settling here. Due to the meager income, this area has long become a hotbed of poverty and crime, with homeless gangsters and prostitutes living on the streets. Although Scotland Yard established a city-wide patrol network in 1829, the weak police force was still unable to maintain security in the East End, where tens of thousands of prostitutes visited every night.

In the 1990s, 100 years after the Whitechapel serial murders, people had a more comprehensive understanding of Jack's modus operandi. Many characteristics of Jack can be inferred from this:

A. He must have considerable knowledge of anatomy.

B, considering the environment at the time (outdoors, basically no lighting, having to be alert to the surrounding situation at all times, extremely tight time), Jack must be a skilled knife user.

C. All the victims were injured by the knife from right to left, indicating that Jack is likely to be left-handed, or is skilled in using knives with both hands. (This speculation indirectly indicates that Jack is likely to be an experienced doctor or anatomist).

D. Jack may not have committed the crime alone. (This inference is widely accepted by "royal conspiracy theorists", but there is no evidence that Jack had an accomplice).

E, Jack must be a person with certain physical strength.

The last one becomes the main flaw of the "Royal Conspiracy Theory". The suspect in the royal conspiracy theory, William Gull (the murderer in the movie "From Hell"), is believed to be in his seventies at the time of the murder. Such an old man, no matter how good his anatomy skills are, his physical strength will not allow him to carry out such a strenuous murder.

(The above information comes from Baidu Encyclopedia)

Jack the Ripper is actually the first serial killer in history. It is said that in his open letter to the media, he claimed that he gave birth to the twentieth century. If this statement can be taken seriously, then the 20th century was indeed an inherently perverted century.

Password 3. Sapphire of Doom——Hope

(Picture from Baidu Space)

This prestigious gem of doom is now collected in The Smithsonian Institute in Washington, I have heard about this unknown sapphire a long time ago. I remember that at that time, it seemed that a magazine introduced the world's famous cursed jewelry. Among them, the one that ranked first and impressed me the most was Among the unlucky owners of this doomed sapphire are the French King Louis XVI and his wife who were put on the short-term stage (I always thought it was the British King Charles I). Judging from the information currently available, this sapphire seems to have nothing to do with the British royal family and has never been divided. However, one of the other two gems of misfortune with the same name was divided into three pieces, and one is related to the British royal family. close relationship.

Hope: the beautiful diamond of death

How many deep blue diamonds are there in the world? There are many masterpieces, the most famous of which is "Hope". When you hear this name, you may think that this auspicious diamond should bring unlimited hope and good luck to its owner. In fact, this surprisingly beautiful gem has brought misfortune and even death to its owner for three centuries. .

In 1642, the French jeweler Tavimir unearthed this huge dark blue diamond in southwestern India, which weighed 112 carats at the time. Knowing the goods, he immediately brought the gems back to his motherland and presented them to King Louis XIV of France. The king granted him an official position and gave him a large sum of money as a reward for presenting the treasures.

However, bad luck begins to befall everyone who comes into contact with the gems. The wealthy Tavimir had a prodigal son. Thanks to the boy's unremitting "efforts", his father's money was quickly squandered. Under the coercion of his son, the impoverished Tavimir went to India to hunt for treasure again when he was 80 years old. However, he was bitten to death by wild dogs and his body was exposed in the wilderness. Next it was Louis XIV's turn. The extravagant king ordered the blue diamond to be carved into a diamond ornament weighing 69.03 carats. However, he only wore it once and died of smallpox. Since then, the gemstone has been considered unlucky. Louis XV, who subsequently succeeded to the throne, was more cautious and vowed not to wear it for the rest of his life. Instead, he lent the diamond to his mistress. She was beheaded during the Revolution not long after. Louis XVI, the last king of the Louis Dynasty, did not believe in evil and often wore this diamond with his queen. In the end, the couple ended up on the guillotine with their heads in different places. The queen's girlfriend, Princess Lambona, later became the owner of the bad luck diamond, and not long after, the princess was also beheaded.

From then on, the diamond was sealed in the French treasury. In 1792, the treasury was stolen, and the diamond reappeared and was polished again, reducing its weight to 45.52 carats. In 1830, it appeared on the London jewelry market and was immediately purchased by banker Hope for a high price of 18,000 pounds. From then on, this blue diamond was called "Hope". Because Hope in English means hope, the diamond is also called "Hope". Before Hope died, he passed the blue diamond to his grandson. Soon, Little Hope went bankrupt. In 1906, he was forced to sell "Hope" in order to pay off debts. Within two years, "Hope" was resold many times.

In 1908, Sultan Hamid II of Turkey bought "Hope" for US$400,000. The businessman who handled the deal later encountered a car accident during a family trip and fell off a cliff, killing his family. The gem was given to his confidant Zubide by the Sultan to wear, but not long after, the Sultan executed Zubide himself. Since then, rumors of doom about the diamond have spread like wildfire again, and the price of "Hope" has plummeted.

In 1911, McClain, the head of the United States Postal Service, felt that collecting "Hope" would be profitable, so he purchased it for $114,000 and gave it to his wife as a gift. The next year, his son died in a car accident, and a heartbroken McClain died soon after. The misfortune did not end, Mrs. McClain's beloved daughter also died of an overdose of sleeping pills. The lonely Mrs. McClain lived peacefully until 1947, which made people quite puzzled. Some astrologers explained that while wearing the "Hope", Mrs. McClain also owned another world-famous diamond, the "Star of the East". The two famous diamonds complemented each other and offset the evil influence of the "Hope", so Mrs. McClain was safe and sound.

In 1947, Harry Winston, the famous American jeweler, became the owner of a famous diamond. Perhaps his nobility really curbed the evil influence of diamonds. In the days that followed, he was not only safe. No matter what, my career is getting bigger and bigger. At this point, many people believe that the doomsday talk about "hope" has finally come to an end. In the following ten years, Winston traveled 640,000 kilometers with the diamond and other precious gems, touring around the world to raise funds for charity. ***500 people visited the diamond,* **More than $1 million raised. Later, he donated the gems to the country, which are now collected at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington. The famous diamonds used to show off his wealth have become the object of scientific research. This may be the best destination for "hope".

Beautiful jewelry cursed by bad luck in history

Eye of the Creator: Has the curse been lifted?

The British Museum of Natural History really hides many "treasures", and "The Eye of Brahma" is one of them. This black diamond, also known as the "Black Orlov", weighs 67.5 carats. It was originally the eye of the Hindu god "Brahma" (God of Creation). It originally weighed 195 carats and was later secretly stolen by a money-grubbing monk. After taking it down, the monk disappeared mysteriously and his life and death are unknown. From then on, people began to spread that this incident was blamed by the gods and a curse was placed on the black diamond.

At first, those aristocratic and wealthy businessmen did not pay attention to people's claims about the curse. Unexpectedly, the three owners of the diamond all encountered misfortune. First, the Russian princesses Nadia and Leonila, they got They died one after another not long after; Parris, a jeweler in New York, USA, subsequently bought the diamond at a high price, and after reselling it, he made a lot of money but suddenly committed suicide for unknown reasons; what is even more bizarre is that these three people all chose to He ended his life by jumping off a building.

This series of changes has completely made the "Eye of the Creator" a famous diamond in the jewelry industry. The media said it was an "evil death stone" and people also stayed away from it. After all, it was cursed. It is better to believe that such rumors exist than to believe that they do not exist. In order to break the legendary curse, the "Eye of the Creator" was divided into three pieces. Supernatural people believe that this can weaken the "magic" of the diamond. In the following decades, the black diamond divided into three pieces passed through the hands of some collectors, but the process was not known to the world. It was not until 1990 that one of the pieces was rediscovered at an auction in New York.

According to the current owner of the black diamond, Petty Mesas, he claimed that he never thought there was any danger in owning "Black Orlov" and the curse has been broken. However, more people believe that as long as people's greed remains unchanged, the curse about the "Eye of the Creator" will not end.

The Mountain of Light: The royal stone of misfortune

There is a passage in Hindu scriptures: "Who owns it , who owns the whole world; whoever owns it will have to bear the disasters it brings. Only God or a woman will not suffer any punishment.

"What we are talking about here is one of the oldest and most famous diamonds in the world - the Mountain of Light. For 700 years, it has been like a mirror that reflects history, triggering countless bloody massacres and battles, and many monarchs who own it, In the end, there was no way to escape the bad luck.

The "Mountain of Light" originally belonged to India. In the 16th century, the Mongolian nobleman Babur occupied it and killed the prince who owned the diamond. Unfortunately, not yet. Waking up from the dream of getting the treasure, Babur's son launched a coup and imprisoned him. His son Humayun became the new owner of the pointed arch diamond within a few days after ascending to the throne of the king. The civil war failed, and Humayun had to go into exile in Persia. In return, he gave the "Mountain of Light" to the Persian King Tamas. Unexpectedly, Tamas stepped down due to the turmoil in the country.

As time went by, King Jahan, a descendant of Humayun (famous for building the Taj Mahal), attacked Persia and not only captured and killed the King of Golconda, but also obtained this ancestral treasure. Before Han had time to celebrate his victory, he fell seriously ill. More than a dozen of his sons fought against each other for the throne and the priceless diamond. He was also imprisoned in the "Red Castle" by his sons who were eager to usurp the throne, and he remained there until his death. Seen again, the bloody diamond disappeared.

In the 1830s, the "Mountain of Light" reappeared, and the Persian King Nadir not only occupied India in one fell swoop, but also obtained the coveted diamond. A long-lasting diamond. When he raised the diamond above his head, a streak of colorful light pierced the night sky. Nadir couldn't help blurting out: "Ko-i-Noor (meaning Mountain of Light in Persian)", "Mountain of Light". "It has been called since.

Three months after getting the diamond, Nadir inexplicably contracted edema. The pain made him lose his mind and blinded his five sons. In 1747 , was assassinated by his enemies while he was sleeping. After Nadir's death, his descendants also inherited his cruel personality. The Persian royal family fell into a series of internecine killings, and almost every monarch died.

After many twists and turns, the Mountain of Light fell into the hands of Singh, the heir to the Sikh throne. Before he was an adult, he heard about the bloody history of the "Mountain of Light". He was afraid that the same fate would befall him, so he decided to follow the ancient In the scripture, the diamond was dedicated to a woman, Queen Victoria of England. The diamond was also met with misfortunes on its way to England. As soon as the cargo ship set sail, cholera broke out and many people died. There was also a tsunami on the way. Several weeks later. The diamond was handed over to the Queen.

Queen Victoria was keen on collecting, and she was often intoxicated by the rare treasures collected from all over the world. After getting the "Mountain of Light", she first sent someone to set the diamond in it. On the corsage. In 1852, the British court mineralogist Tennant polished the diamond again, making it more beautiful and reducing its weight to its current 105.6 carats. From then on, the "Mountain of Light" became the crown of the Queen of England. The most eye-catching diamond on the top cross is now lying quietly in the museum in London. However, the British royal family who owned it did not really wear it. In people's minds, it is still not a "good luck stone". It only has bloody killings.

The famous Death Diamond "Hope" is now collected at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington.

The dazzling diamond on the top cross of Queen Mary's crown is " "Mountain of Light", behind it is full of blood and killing

The black diamond "Eye of the Creator", it is also called the "Evil Death Diamond"

Password 4. Edward V

In fact, the tragedy of Edward V was just one of the many tragedies that occurred during the famous War of the Roses in British history.

After the Hundred Years' War between England and France, the rule of the Plantagenet dynasty in England gradually came to an end. After Henry VI went insane, the two major British aristocrats, the Lancastrian aristocracy, symbolized by red roses. A fierce power struggle began with the York aristocracy, whose symbol was the white rose. At the beginning of the war the son of the Duke of York was victorious and crowned Edward IV, but after the king's death the country soon fell into turmoil.

Edward IV's 13-year-old son Edward V and his brother Richard, Duke of York, mysteriously disappeared while waiting for the coronation ceremony in the Tower of London. Afterwards, the two brothers' uncle, the Duke of Gloucester, who was the regent, unexpectedly inherited the throne. He took the throne and was crowned Richard III, so Richard III has always been considered the biggest suspect in the murder of the two brothers. (However, some historians believe that Richard III was innocent). No matter what, Richard III's accession to the throne always seems to be somewhat unfair, so just two years after he ascended the throne, Henry Tudor, a descendant of the Duke of Lancaster, attacked him and won, but Richard III Lost his life in this war. The coronation of Henry Tudor as Henry VII also marked the creation of the Tudor dynasty. The famous King Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth I in British history were both monarchs of this dynasty.

(The following information and pictures are from Baidu Encyclopedia)

Edward V (English name Edward V, November 4, 1470 ~ about 1483), King of England, in 1483 Bit.

Edward V, the eldest son of Edward IV, ascended the throne as King of England after his father's death. However, within a year, he mysteriously disappeared together with his only brother, Richard, Duke of York. They were succeeded by their uncle, the regent Richard III, Duke of Gloucester. It was the chaotic period of the War of the Red and White Rose in England. Two years later, Richard III was also killed.

Thomas More's writings describe how later Tudor Henry VII, winner of the War of the Red and White Rose, tortured James Tyrrell, an exiled nobleman who supported the hostile York dynasty. He admitted that he had the two princes killed in the Tower of London on the orders of Richard III, but their bodies had been removed. But Thomas More's record is now considered a rhetorical ploy and cannot be regarded as historical fact.

In 1674, while renovating the Tower of London, workers discovered a box containing two small skeletons. Initially dismissive, it was later suspected that they might be the bones of two princes, and they were placed in Westminster Abbey at the behest of Richard III. Expert research in 1933 concluded that one of the skeletons was larger than the other; however, because the skeletons were so incomplete, experts could not determine when they died or their gender.

Password 5. Domesday Book

My college textbook did mention the Domesday Book, but it was not the Domesday Book in the Bible and it was not an animation. The theater of death mentioned in is an investigation report compiled by the French rulers to collect taxes after they first conquered Britain. If you are interested in what the real doomsday judgment is, you have to read the Bible. I have downloaded it many times. I was determined to read the "Old Testament" and "New Testament" from beginning to end for the first time, but failed. It seems that I will not be able to pass this level when the Doomsday Judgment comes.

(The following information comes from Baidu Encyclopedia)

"Domesday Book"

The official name should be "Land Tax Survey Book" or "Winchester Book".

A compilation of land surveys across the country ordered by King William I (the Conqueror). The purpose is to understand the real estate status of the king's fields and the king's direct vassals in order to collect taxes, strengthen financial management, and determine the feudal obligations of the vassals. In 1086, religious and secular feudal lords appointed by the king conducted extensive land surveys throughout the territory. The country is divided into 7 to 8 districts, and each district includes several counties. Understand the situation by county, household district, and village system. The survey includes the ownership of local real estate, the area of ??each manor, the number of tools and livestock, the number of farmers of various types, the area of ??grassland, pasture, forest, fish ponds, the value of the real estate, etc. The results of the investigation were compiled and compiled into a volume called the "Domesday Book." Because the investigators he sent were all fierce and vicious, and the investigation content was extremely detailed, making the people under investigation feel as if they were walking on thin ice, as if they were undergoing the doomsday judgment of God's messenger, so the results of the investigation were called the "Doomsday Book of Judgment."

Domesday Book 1. Also known as the Last Judgment. Christianity says that Jesus will judge all mankind at the end of the world, both ancient and modern, and distinguish between good and evil people. Good people will go to heaven and evil people will go to hell. It also generally refers to being judged at the time of destruction.

Russian

Christianity believes that before the end of the world, God and Jesus will judge the world. This is the Doomsday Judgment. Anyone who believes in God and Jesus Christ and does good deeds can ascend to heaven, while those who cannot be redeemed will go to hell and be punished. The Doomsday Judgment is described in the Bible Revelation.

2. Christ uses the truth to do the work of judgment

The work of the last days is the work of each according to his kind, and it is the end of God’s management plan, because the time is near, God The day has come. God brings all those who enter His kingdom, those who are faithful to Him to the end, into His own era. But before God’s own era has come, the work God wants to do is not to inspect people’s behavior or inquire into people’s lives, but to judge people’s disobedience, because God wants to purify all those who come to his throne. Anyone who has followed God’s footsteps to this day has come before the throne of God. If this is the case, then everyone who accepts God’s final work is an object of God’s purification. In other words, everyone who accepts God’s final work is the object of God’s judgment.

Password Six, Crystal Palace and World Expo

Because the Shanghai World Expo is about to be held, the World Expo has become a hot topic recently, and various media reports on the history of the World Expo are also very It's enough, but I still can't help but want to nag about it.

London, England, was the first city in the world to host the World Expo. The 1851 London International Exposition of Industry was the predecessor of today's World Expo. The venue for this World Expo was the world-famous Crystal Palace. The Crystal Palace can be said to be the world's first steel structure and glass curtain wall building, and it can be regarded as a monumental building that started the history of modern architecture. Therefore, although it was burned down in the fire of 1936, it is still talked about. In the animation, Sebastian and Agni compete in the Curry Competition at the Crystal Palace. At this time, the Crystal Palace had already moved from Hyde Park, where the World Expo was held, to Sydenham, South London, and was expanded to serve as an entertainment center to the public. It's open.

In the 22nd episode of the comic, Charles went to Paris to meet Queen Victoria, who was there to inspect the World Expo. It was during this period that Charles learned the whole truth, and Sebastian and the Angel of Killing also had a fight on the Eiffel Tower. The first confrontation. This World Expo must be the 1889 World Expo in Paris, France. The most impressive building unveiled at that World Expo was the Eiffel Tower. In fact, France had already held an World Expo in 1855. That expo was only four years after the first World Expo was held in the United Kingdom. It was probably to compete with the United Kingdom, because since the Industrial Revolution, Britain and France have become the leaders of the European economy. Sheep was also one of the top superpowers in the world at that time, and the two countries were tit-for-tat in the struggle for colonies. In 1889, France held another World Expo as if to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution.

Password 7. The Great Fire of London and the Black Death (Plague)

When I saw the raging fire burning in downtown London at the end of the comic, my mind jumped out The term "Great Fire of London" is used, but in fact the famous Great Fire of London did not occur in the 19th century but in 1666.

(The following information comes from Baidu Encyclopedia)

At around 1 a.m. on Sunday, September 2, 1666, a fire broke out in a bakery in Pudding Lane, London. A strong wind quickly blew the flames through several narrow streets full of wooden houses, and then into some warehouses on the north bank of the Thames. The fire spread across the city and burned for four consecutive days, including 87 churches, 44 companies and 13,000 houses. About one-sixth of the buildings in London, Europe's largest city, were burned down. Later, a monument was erected near the site of the fire. It was designed by Sir Christopher Wren. The reconstruction work was led by Wren. 51 of the 54 churches were redesigned by him, including the famous St. Paul's Cathedral.

In the 20th episode of the animation, Sebastian was tortured to extract a confession, but he jokingly admitted that he introduced the plague that swept Europe during the reign of Edward III.

In fact, the plague he was talking about was the Black Death that was prevalent throughout Europe in the 14th century. It was a type of bubonic plague spread by rats. It was also called the Black Death because the patient's body turned black and putrefied and died. At that time, there was no treatment for this disease, so it was a nightmare that enveloped Europe for the entire 100 years of the 14th century. In particular, the Great Plague that broke out between 1347 and 1350 caused a sharp decline in the population of Europe, and in 1348 The Great Plague struck England without warning in the summer of that year, killing one-third or even half of its population.

In fact, in ancient Europe, in addition to the plague, hemorrhagic fever and other epidemic diseases often broke out. Because there was no effective treatment, people often imagined such diseases as devils. The hemorrhagic fever known as the Red Death was caused by It was spread by the Red Death, and the plague known as the Black Death was naturally spread by the Black Death.

Password 8, Ice Market and Cutty Sark

After much deliberation, I decided to add information about the Ice Market and Cutty Sark. Let’s see. The author of "Black Butler" is really well versed in British history, and even the detailed scenes and props are so historic!

I haven’t found much information about the Ice Market, but it is certain that this market does exist, and it seems to have been there from the past. There is also information about the London Ice Market in 2007 on the Internet. As for the report of the market, the venue was changed from the Thames to the banks of the Thames. Thanks to global warming, the Thames no longer freezes in winter, so the Ice Market cannot live up to its name.

The Cutty Sark is really amazing and has some connections with China. Unfortunately, it was originally well preserved in the museum until it was scorched by a fire in 2007. There is news that it was Someone deliberately set a fire, alas. . . . (Sighing)

(The following information comes from Baidu Encyclopedia)

The "Cutty Sark" is the fastest ship in the history of sailing in the world, and is called "Tailwind" "Whiskey" represents the pinnacle of sailboat construction technology. It was built in Scotland in 1869 and has a history of 138 years. It is now a tourist attraction in London, with thousands of people visiting every year to relive the era of giant sailing ships in history.

Before steamships replaced sailing ships, sailing ships like the Cutty Sark were used to transport tea from China and wool from Australia. The Cutty Sark was the fastest sailing ship built in the history of sailing ships. The only sailing ship that could compete with it was the Thermopylae. The two ships set sail from Shanghai to England at the same time on June 18, 1872, and started a fierce competition on the way.

After the competition started, the "Thermopylae" was the first to arrive at Java Island. But in the Indian Ocean, the Cutty Sark came ahead. It seemed certain that it would return to England first, but it suffered a series of bad luck in the competition. In August the Cutty Sark was hit by a severe storm and lost one of its rudders. The ship rocked from side to side and could not be maneuvered. The crew used spare wooden boards to make an emergency rudder on the ship and overcame many difficulties to install the rudder in place. In this way, the speed of the ship is greatly reduced. Because the boat cannot go too fast, otherwise there is a danger and the emergency rudder will be blown away. For this reason the Cutty Sark fell behind. After crossing the equator, the captain docked the ship at a port and changed the rudder there. But at this time, the "Thermopylae" was already more than 500 miles away. Although every second counts when installing a new rudder, it is impossible for the "Cutty Sark" to win. It arrived in England one week later than the "Thermopylae". But considering the many delays on the road, this achievement is already very difficult. There is no doubt that if the rudder had not been lost midway, the "Cutty Sark" would have easily won the competition.

This race lasted for a full 4 months. It was the last and most famous race of its kind. It marked the end of the great sailing tradition and a new era of navigation - the "steam engine" era. the beginning of.

On May 21, 2007, a fire broke out in the precious ancient sailing ship "Cutty Sark" located in London, England. The ancient sailing ship, built for the tea trade in the 19th century, suffered a serious fire that morning.

The fire was eventually put out, but the ancient ship was burned beyond recognition.

At this point, my decryption activities have been completed in detail, so I am not afraid of bothering to talk about Schonbrunn Palace again. Remember, it was Sebastian who mentioned it when he taught Charles how to dance. Arrived, Viennese Waltz is no problem because he often goes to Sch?nbrunn Palace and is really a refined devil!

(The following information comes from Baidu Encyclopedia)

Sch?nbrunn Palace (German: Schloss Sch?nbrunn, also transliterated as Sch?nbrunn Palace) is located in the southwest of Vienna, the capital of Austria. The Baroque art building was once the royal palace of the Holy Roman Empire, the Austrian Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Habsburg dynasty. It is now the most famous tourist attraction in Vienna. Sch?nbrunn Palace and its gardens are listed by UNESCO. World Cultural Heritage List.

The name of Sch?nbrunn Palace comes from the Holy Roman Emperor Matthias (reigned from 1612 to 1619). Legend has it that he hunted here in 1612 and drank the spring water here. It was refreshing and sweet, so he named it This spring was called "Beautiful Spring", and thereafter "Beautiful Spring" became the name of this area. In 1743, Queen Maria Theresa of Austria ordered the construction of the majestic Sch?nbrunn Palace and Baroque gardens here, with a total area of ??26,000 square meters, second only to the Palace of Versailles in France.

The manga "Black Butler" contains so many "codes" about British history that it would not be easy to list them all. But in addition to these obvious famous historical events, there are actually some little-known, surprisingly coincidental factual connections and higher-level ideological realms and philosophical views hidden in "Black Butler". This is the animation of "Black Butler" Until now, I still can't figure out the real passwords. If you want to know the secrets, go and watch this animation for yourself!
