The Whispering Verses Chapter 1572: The chosen one in the space
"What happened last night was not an explosion, it was the church's action to arrest members of the [Mirror Association]."
At ten o'clock on Friday morning, after sending off Dorothy and Lesia, who were going to Lesia's personal tailor to customize spring dresses, Shade, who had just returned to No. 6 Saint Teresa Square, went from Luvia heard the news.
The purple-eyed girl waited for Shade to come back at home in advance. She didn't care about the two different perfume smells on Shade. Instead, she congratulated Shade on his victory first, and then helped him put the trophy in the study. After teasing Miss Carina, she actually tolerated Lecia and Dorothy "playing games" with Shade at her place.
"I received news from Yin Luna that this bold action of the [Mirror Association] is related to the chosen one."
Luvia said.
"What?"
Xia De came out of the bedroom after changing clothes, hugged little Mia and sat on the sofa, then frowned:
"Is it related to the Chosen One? Wait, is the fragment of "The Whispering Psalms" pointing to the Riding Competition?"
"The specific situation is not known yet. The church used channeling methods to summon the soul of the ring warlock of the [Mirror Association] who was killed last night, and then got some information. Wait a minute Yin Luna, she is probably half Come in an hour.”
Shad nodded and stroked Mia's back:
"It seems that my rest time is over again."
They said they would arrive in half an hour, but in fact it was already eleven o'clock when Yin Luna arrived at Saint Teresa Square.
Xia De went downstairs to open the door and welcomed Yin Luna up. After the seventeen-year-old girl sat down, she did not exchange too many greetings and said:
"The Mirror Association has obtained some fragments of the psalm, and the sixth chosen one is the chosen one in space. The information currently obtained by the church from the broken souls is: the chosen one in space and the participation in the 1854 Tobes Related to the 36 contestants in the Christchurch City Riding Competition."
Luvia frowned deeply:
"What does it mean to be related? If it is related, because Shade is a contestant, even you and me can be counted among them."
"The relevant point is that the person selected for the space may be one of the 36 contestants, or it may be their most trusted friend or closest relative."
"You are still in it."
Shad pointed out:
"I don't have any relatives, and my most trusted friends are you...or rather not friends but a more personal relationship."
The girl with purple eyes showed a smile:
"Look what you said. Yin Luna, then the [Mirror Association] brought the [Faceless Man] here this time to..."
"The Chosen One has a strange destiny and unique means. The Mirror Association tries to let the Chosen One meet the [Faceless Man]. No matter what happens, they can obtain effective information. But unfortunately, the Chosen One probably Did not arrive at the scene. The only ring warlock who had a direct conflict with the [Faceless Man] was Shade, and Shade only used ordinary people's methods. Luvia, you have said many times that Shade cannot be the chosen one. ."
Yin Luna said, looking at Xia De again:
"However, the church should investigate Shade's interpersonal relationships in the near future to determine whether the chosen one is related to him. Don't worry about this, I will help you get it. But according to past experience, once there is someone who meets the requirements of the Psalm The events of this chapter represent the beginning of the epic of the new chosen ones. Shade, we were originally planning to let you rest for the entire spring."
She said apologetically, Shade shook his head:
"It's okay, but what is the direction of the current investigation? Should we also investigate the interpersonal relationships of all 36 contestants? The church can do this, they have sufficient manpower, but we cannot conduct a large-scale investigation. ”
"Let Yin Luna inquire about the news in the church first. I will communicate with Carina and then find a solution from the Prophet Association. Now that we can borrow the power of the Witch Council, many things will be more convenient. Once we have it, clues, I can use the remaining two demon gold coins to further narrow the scope of the investigation."
Luvia turned to look out the window:
"But why are there clues about the chosen one appearing in Tobesk City again? Is this city really that special?"
So far, with the exception of the Chosen Ones of Death and the Chosen Ones of Earth, the other Chosen Ones are all more or less related to Tobesk.
"The key now is to determine whether the chosen one is local. If not, I will prepare white stone crystals and items that can make me lucky in a short time and go to other cities... I originally planned to do this After the game, I went to visit Miss Gaude. Now it seems that my spring travel plan can only be postponed temporarily. ”
Xia De said.
"Meow~"
Mia yelled, not knowing what she wanted to express.
It was Friday, April, the fourth day of the month of sowing, when Yin Luna brought the news of the fragments of the poem. The next day, early Saturday morning, Shade received a letter from Miss Mia Gold from afar:
"Ha, Miss Gold said, Mia's birthday is this week! I said, my guess is indeed right! Mia, how about we have a big dinner tonight?"
Because in her reply at the beginning of last month, Shade mentioned that he planned to visit her, in this month's letter, in addition to the usual greetings and trivial matters about little Mia, Miss Gauthe also mentioned Shade. visit.
She obviously thought that Shade had not set off when she received this letter, because when the letter talked about this matter, it was also based on the premise that Shade was preparing for this trip.
To put it simply, Miss Gothe welcomes Shade to take Mia to visit her, but she is currently dealing with trivial matters in the family territory. While recruiting helpers and adventurers who are willing to stay in that remote and desolate ancient town, they also need to serve as the local lord family and repair the churches, sanatoriums, taverns, carriage stations, and craftsmen's unions that were damaged by various accidents in the town last year. , cemeteries, blacksmith shops and other basic functional buildings for people's livelihood.
In her letter, she suggested that Shade could wait until a few months later in the summer to visit her again, when the town should have gradually returned to its former peace. At the same time, she also mentioned that after Shade's visit, little Mia could stay with her directly, which also ended the long commission of taking care of the pet cat.
"Once I go to visit her, I have to keep little Mia with her?"
Shad took the letter and glanced at the cat on the dining table, which was lowering its head and licking the goat's milk. The cat with very sensitive senses noticed Shad's gaze and raised its head to look at him with innocent eyes. The hair around its mouth was stained with The white goat milk looks very funny.
【You won’t decide never to go near Mia Gaud’s town for this reason, right? 】
"She" suddenly whispered into Shade's ear. Shade shook his head to get rid of the unethical thoughts in his mind:
"I will definitely go, no matter what method I use to keep Mia by my side. However, since Miss Gothe asked me to postpone my travel plan, and the issue of the space chosen person happened, I want to postpone it for a while. You can also visit her."
Xia De said to himself, folded the letter paper and put it away, and also put away the 10 pound note.
"Since Miss God is working hard to revitalize the family and the town, maybe I can express my goodwill in other ways. For example, if she is short of money, I can lend her some, and now I am relatively rich. ”
After experiencing the adventure in Randall Valley, even without counting the shares in the unexploited gold mine in Randall Valley, Shade's savings unknowingly reached five figures. Coupled with the wealth that Shade was not willing to easily liquidate, such as the box of gems in Huntington City, his average wealth was probably barely comparable to the lowest level of his neighbors.
Now that he had thought about what to say to Miss Gothe, he planned to write a reply to Miss Gothe immediately, in order to prevent him from waiting until Yin Luna or Luvia had further information about the chosen one. Forgot something. But just as he reached the study room, he heard a knock on the door from downstairs:
"Principal?"
Shad went downstairs and opened the door with anticipation, and then discovered the two twin brothers wearing monocles, Eric Foran and Charles Foran.
Although he has not known them for a long time, Shade regards them as his friends because of their similar interests. He warmly invited the two brothers to go upstairs, but they just stopped in the foyer. They came to say goodbye:
"Mr. Hamilton, we are leaving Tobesk City this afternoon. We just went to Silver Cross Avenue to do errands. I thought you lived nearby, so I came over to say hello."
As the elder brother, Mr. Eric Foran said, and Mr. Charles Foran, who wore a monocle in his left eye, handed Shade a book:
"We came from Willendale and didn't bring anything good with us. This book is given to you as a gift. This book is out of print. Although it is not worth much, it is also our heart."
It was "Kasenlik Fairy Tales" written in Kasenlik language. It was an old book, but it was well preserved.
"I'm really sorry. I should have given you a parting gift."
Xia De said that he was about to go upstairs to look for gifts, but was stopped by two brothers wearing black formal suits:
"As a friend, there is no need to be so polite."
Eric Follen said with a smile, then stretched out his hand to shake hands with Shad and say goodbye:
"We are going to Green Lake City and Michaela Blast Furnace City next. I really envy your comfortable detective life."
Xia De also shook hands with the two brothers respectively:
"Will Earl Lewis, who was seriously injured, also go? Or will he return to Willendale City to recuperate? I hope my behavior at the banquet last night was not too rude."
Mr. Charles Foran shook his head:
"It's time for someone to teach the Earl some lessons. Ahem, I mean, yes, Earl Lewis still went to the Green Lake area as originally planned. Since he was so seriously injured, he still insisted on participating in the subsequent negotiations. , What reason do we have not to go? However, this is not a meaningless trip. We have always wanted to visit Green Lake, which is our mother’s hometown.”
