The Whispering Verses Chapter 1793: Loyalty and reporting

Looking at his boss's expression across the table, Shade took a deep breath. To be honest, he really admired Director Anlos who said these words. Thinking about it this way, Detective Sparrow should also know these things, but still pursue his career in obscurity until he actually dies because of it. In addition to them, there may be more unknown people who walk a tightrope for their respective motherland. These people are worthy of admiration no matter what era.

He never told Director Anros whether he was a ring warlock, and Director Anros never asked Shade about this. But now that the words have come to this, Shade feels that he should also do something:

"Since someone wants to assassinate that lady, I can't pretend not to know. What can I do?"

Director Anlos refused directly without thinking:

"If that lady knows that I got you involved in this matter, my fate will be more than just being assigned to guard the royal tomb. You can know about this matter, but you cannot enter this matter."

"So if you don't tell me and I don't tell you, who can know?"

Shad really really wanted to do this. Although he didn't think that the so-called assassination could have an impact on the witch who could catch bullets with her eyes closed and detonate a steam bomb in her hand without any danger, but He couldn't just ignore people who might be harmful to her.

"Since I receive a salary from the state, I should also do something."

Director Anlos was silent for a moment, but it seemed that he still didn't want to agree.

"You should know my relationship with that lady. Since I am a man, I have the obligation to protect her."

Director Anlos then relaxed:

"Well, since I can meet you like this, I think this should be regarded as some kind of hint. I do have a few things in my hand that require elite agents to do. Since your current mission completion rate is 100%, I want you to take over one of them. I need you to find one of our people, codenamed 'Mole'. Three weeks ago, he successfully infiltrated the manor prepared for Duke Simil under the false identity of a chef apprentice. But the contact was suddenly disconnected a week ago."

"Missing?"

"Not sure. We have just come into contact with Gray Gloves now, so I can't take the initiative to mention it. So, I need you to determine the whereabouts of our 'Mole' in this city of glass. He may be If Gray Gloves discovers his identity and catches him, he may be unable to contact the outside world for some reason, or it may even be a shameful defection. ”

He shook his head slightly at Sha De:

"You don't need to deal with him, I just need to confirm what the situation is. Later, I will give you this person's information and the details of his latent mission. But be careful and try not to attract attention during the investigation."

"No problem."

"Your loyalty often makes me sigh. If we have a few more people like you, the work will definitely be much easier."

Director Anlos sighed and finally picked up the teacup, but Shade noticed that he just sipped the rim of the cup. This experienced old agent would never eat or drink outside casually.

"Me? Loyal?"

The double agent who inherited the title of "Grey-Headed Eagle" pointed at himself and shook his head slightly:

"I don't think I'm loyal."

"I don't mean to the kingdom or our department, I mean to the lady."

Director Anlos corrected, facing Shade’s gaze and explaining:

"I can see that everything you have been doing is for that distinguished lady, so I say you are loyal and loyal to her. I have seen a lot of things, maybe others think you are... .....I'm attracted to a female noble, but I know that's not the case. Look at that lady's attitude towards you. Maybe you are the one who takes the lead in your relationship. Don't say that. What I said."

Director Anlos is also the first person to know about the relationship between Shade and Miss Carina. He is one of the few men around Miss Carina who can speak well.

Xia De was speechless for a moment:

"Loyalty..."

He had never thought about discussing his emotional problems with his boss, but at this moment he couldn't help but said:

"You must know that there is actually another girl by my side...is this considered loyalty?"

Director Anlos smiled. While talking about the intense work with his subordinates, he also chatted about life. This was the moment when he enjoyed his job the most:

"I have seen a lot of betrayal, lies, conspiracy and deception, so I am the most qualified to say what loyalty is. Believe me, you are absolutely loyal to that lady. Whether you are loyal or not does not depend on your heart To be honest, there are not many of us who receive multiple salaries, but I still believe in most of them."

Xia De is one of those people who earns multiple salaries... "multiple salaries" in every sense of the word.

Shad nodded. Director Anlos put down the tea cup that he had not drunk at all, and suddenly asked a question that had nothing to do with this conversation:

"Since it's just chatting, let's talk about it, who do you think the next king will be?"

"This question, I..."

Xia De was startled and looked at his boss with some surprise. The latter also looked at him with profound meaning in his eyes. This is not a simple question, this is testing Shade's attitude.

He thought for a moment and did not give a positive answer:

"I don't know either, but one thing is for sure."

He blinked:

"As long as we follow that lady, no matter who wears the crown in the future, the job of guarding the royal tomb will never be our turn. A high pension and a decent post-retirement consultant job, these can be guaranteed. After all, that lady always takes good care of the people around her."

Director Anlos laughed:

"Look, you are really loyal to her. Young people, although it is good to think often, but sometimes don't think too much, you are not trying to learn. Ask yourself if you are going the right way, and then Just keep moving forward. When you are old, you will have time to think about your life, beautify your experience, and write a book so that people will think you are a good person."

After giving Shade the information about the latent agent "Mole", Director Anlos left. Shade was too embarrassed to step into the building behind the flower-walled screen wall again to use colored mushroom powder. Instead, he threw his glass slippers home and then returned to the Earl's rented apartment at the Green Lake Hotel.

"I am also a man with a family and a cat, so I can't just go to that kind of place."

The count was still in the "Paradise of Elysium", so Shade sat on the sofa reading a book and waiting. It was not until twelve o'clock at noon that the Earl, who still seemed confused, walked out of the crack. It was obvious that he was still mentally disturbed.

Now that the role of the mushroom in the earl's hands was confirmed, Shade directly used some hypnotic techniques to induce him to get the mushroom from the earl. Then he let the earl sleep and left here. About half an hour later, after receiving a report from the hotel's boss Green, the police who learned that someone was using illegal drugs in the room knocked on the earl's door; more than twenty years later, Minutes later, the ring warlocks from the Peace Church came after hearing the news and took away the count who was still unconscious.

As for Shad, he has returned home and went to have lunch with his cat. Of course, during lunch, he did not forget to take the mushroom samples he brought back far away to prevent them from being eaten by Xiao Mia. But this time Shade really wronged the cat. It was completely uninterested in the colorful and weird mushrooms.

Waiting until this afternoon, Shade arrived at the dock on the Duin River under an umbrella, and then boarded the Witch's cruise ship. This trip is about Mugu. Megan and Audrey, masters of potions and alchemy, should be very interested in them.

"Can it only enhance the eye's perception of hidden space cracks?"

In the laboratory on the bottom of the cruise ship, Megan asked Shade who was sitting at the table. She had already thrown a whole mushroom into a beaker, poured in the blue solution and was heating it. The liquid bubbled gurglingly, like soup.

"Yes, it does not enhance other aspects of spatial perception, nor does it enhance other eye detection thaumaturgy. However, the hallucinogenic effect of this mushroom is quite strong. As for the effect of reducing one's own sense of existence, I It’s impossible to explain clearly.”

"So where are the origins of these strange mushrooms? Since you have reported it to the church, you won't give up the place of origin to the church, right? I think the Speaker wrote this task, probably just for the effect of these mushrooms, But just one or two are totally not enough.”

The brown-haired witch asked with a smile. She was satisfied that Shade came to her to solve the problem, instead of going to Carina or Miss Sylvia.

"The production area is on the north shore of Green Lake, in the woods not far from Crossroads Village. When Count Petrarch went to the wild to meditate alone, he accidentally discovered those colorful mushrooms, because he had used poisonous mushrooms before I had a habit of dreaming, so I picked some, and then I discovered the peculiarity of mushrooms in the subsequent experience. ”

Xia De explained:

"The area where the mushrooms grow is not large, about the same size as your bedroom in the top cabin. Because of my unique thaumaturgy, I can sense that the land is polluted by chaotic spatial influences, making the originally palm-sized The place expanded to the size of a bedroom, so guess what is buried under the soil?

"I guessed it, is there any reward?"

The witch held the table with one hand and asked, Shade thought for a moment:

"If you guess it correctly, I will give you a gift."

"Green Crest Ore."

The witch replied without thinking.

Megan looked at Shade expectantly. Behind her, Audrey's spirit body pressed against her back and extinguished the alcohol lamp. It is not difficult at all for her to do two things.

"I knew it, you must have guessed it. Yes, there is a small green ridge ore deposit under that piece of land. This is also the first natural deposit I discovered locally. However, I didn't Dig out those ores and leave them to the church."
