The Whispering Verses Chapter 2244: Maid Outfit and Crow
Xia De smiled and shook his head, missing them very much:
"In other words, Detective Sparrow and the informant nicknamed 'The Big Beak' exchange information on Mount Karas on a yearly basis. From this point of view, the identity of this 'Big Beak' is very unusual Ah. Such a confidential meeting place and such a long meeting occurred more than ten years ago. I wonder if the other party has still been in contact with Detective Sparrow in recent years."
Xia De thought to himself and picked up the photo in the notebook:
"So, Detective Sparrow also went to Karas Mountain, just for work reasons. Coincidence. No, I never believe in coincidences. Although it is best not to preset a position in advance, I still think that Sparrow The detective has been to Karas Mountain many times and it is definitely related to my matter."
"She" in my ear suddenly said softly:
【So, you want to find the "Big-billed Bird"? 】
"Yes."
Xia De gently stroked the cat’s little head with his free hand, and narrowed his eyes slightly:
"I can't let go of anything related to Mount Karas. I also know the affairs of the agents very well now. For such a confidential informant, Detective Sparrow will not leave any clues pointing to him. I am sure that even the headquarters of Gray Gloves may not know that there is such an informant."
He put down the photo, picked up little Mia and went to the study window, looking at the night view of Tobesk from here:
"We can only let Margaret first investigate the source of the top-secret information related to Delrayon submitted by the 'Grey Eagle' in recent decades. Which one is problematic? This I'm afraid even Margaret can't investigate it easily. Does divination require basic information? Miss and Luvia go to divination together, maybe it can be done.”
Little Mia lay in Shade's arms unusually docilely, and the stranger looked at the night scene outside the window without saying a word for a long time.
The more I want to explore the past, the more I find that various coincidences seem to be woven into a big web. The first time he came into contact with Karas Mountain was on his first day in this world. At home, he saw news in the newspaper about the collapse of the ancient tower of Karas Mountain.
Now that I think about it, the news happened to be published in the newspaper on the day he came into this world. Is it some kind of coincidence that requires investigation?
【Are you too anxious? 】
There seemed to be some helplessness in "her" gentle voice, and Shade pursed his lips:
"I just want to know what happened in the past. When exactly did I come into this world."
【You will know one day. 】
My ears seemed to feel the warm breath coming from behind, Shade looked at himself and the cat reflected in the glass window:
"Yes, one day."
Despite all the worries, life still has to go on. Probably seeing that Shade was troubled again, after Shade came out of the study with little Mia in his arms, Luvia smiled ambiguously and told Shade that there was a surprise waiting for him tonight.
Shad already knew that Miss Carina was staying the night too. What she knew was not a surprise, so at first she was curious about what the so-called "surprise" meant. And when the lights at home were turned off at around ten o'clock in the evening and everyone was preparing to go to rest, Shade actually saw Miss Carina walking out of the side bed in a black and white maid dress. Luvia, who was following behind, was also dressed like this.
"Look at how surprised he looks now."
Luvia smiled and said to Miss Carina that the red-haired "maid" was also very satisfied with Shade's reaction:
"Our Mr. Knight seems to have a special liking for maid costumes."
Xia De didn't know what to say for a moment, but what he didn't expect was that they laughed together again, grabbed both sides of the skirt, left foot forward and right foot back, making a standard skirt-raising ceremony. When they stood up straight again, Luvia asked again:
"Guess, what color are our stockings?"
"this"
"Louvia, look at Shade's foolish appearance."
The cumbersome skirt was lifted up again, first revealing the small black leather shoes, and then the black and white fabric, but they did not stop but continued upward
Until that night when he hugged the ladies' smooth shoulders and fell asleep, Shade was still curious about who came up with this idea.
(Little Mia is running.)
Miss Carina has never liked to get up early. If she stayed alone at Shade's place for the night, she would pull Shade and not get up in the early morning. But if there was Luvia around, Luvia would not agree to such a "corrupt" lifestyle.
"We woke up in the same bed together, and you actually think that waking up late is more decadent than this?"
While the maids were dressing up the two of them, the witch asked in surprise.
No. 6, Saint Teresa Square received a letter from Iluna this morning. She has left by steam airship this morning and is expected to arrive at Moon Bay on Saturday. Bidifa and Agelina A trip lasts almost a day. Because she had already said goodbye to Shade and Luvia in advance, and also said goodbye to Miss Carina last week, she did not visit them separately to tell them the news.
At the breakfast table, Shade also discussed this matter with Luvia and Miss Carina, but they were all relieved about Iluna:
"Didn't you say that you have important things to do on the weekend? If Iluna is free then, you can ask her to help."
Luvia said while spreading butter on the slices of bread, and then she was surprised to see Shade hesitate.
"It still doesn't work, I can just solve that problem myself."
"What important things will Shade do over the weekend?"
Miss Carina asked from the side, Luvia shook her head:
"He didn't tell me either, he just said it was very important. Shade, is there something you can't tell us yet? A very dangerous relic, once it is revealed, will we also be implicated?"
Xia De nodded immediately:
"It can be understood this way."
Luvia glanced at him suspiciously, and then found that Miss Carina had a similar expression, and the latter even said:
"I didn't hear Bella mention this in the parliament. The parliament can block similar relic message transmission effects. If you are in trouble, she should mention it in the parliament."
"It's just a small matter. I can handle it myself. There is no need to mention it in the parliament."
Xia De said this, Miss Carina nodded slowly, knowing in her heart that Sha De was probably in big trouble that he needed to deal with alone:
"We are all at ease when you do things, but if you need our help, you must speak up. You are not living alone, you have us and your cat."
"I understand."
Xia De still has no intention of revealing that matter, at least not until the matter is resolved:
"I wonder how Sister Devlin and Miss Aurora are doing in the New World. I hope everything goes well for them."
After breakfast, Luvia and Miss Carina left with their maids. The lazy cat still didn’t want to go out. He played with Shade for a while while he was changing clothes, and then went to the basement door to watch him leave. , and then ran to the second floor window sill to bask in the sun and enjoy the "cat" life.
As for Shade, after entering the dragon's lair, he touched the dragon altar as usual and got a dragon scale coin. Then, while walking towards the exit, he thought about going to Mr. Bernhardt for a while and asking about his investigation. progress.
Now Shade has become accustomed to taking the road from the dragon's nest to the outside world. Within ten minutes, he has left the entrance to the outside world and arrived in the small woods.
The sky was gloomy as usual, Shade grabbed his left hand with his right hand, stretched his arms upward and stretched. Just as he was about to "sigh" to her in his mind as to why the "City of Wealth" was not called the "City of Dullness", he suddenly felt a strange sense of being watched.
[At three o'clock in front, look up. 】
Shad looked up and saw a black crow with scarlet eyes looking at him on the branches of a cypress tree with hanging leaves. Shade's eyesight is very good, so he can see the pattern of the three petals in the crow's eyes very clearly.
He blinked suspiciously and said:
"What a strange crow, with blood-red eyes."
He waved to the crow, and the crow immediately spread its wings and flew high into the sky, leaving only one black feather fluttering, which was eventually carried to Shade's feet by the wind.
Shad did not chase the crow, which was not its real body but just a clone. Instead, he bent down and picked up the cursed crow feather. He touched the iron ring on his finger. In the ring was Emilia's long hair. This is a method shared by the doctor to let Shad help Emilia bear part of the "curse of misfortune", but the fundamental purpose is to let the devil notice Shad, let the other party know that he is beside Emilia, and understand some of the devil's knowledge. .
He asked softly in his heart:
"If I guessed correctly, am I already cursed?"
[Yes. 】
"She" still smiled when she spoke, as if Shade was not cursed, but just accidentally tripped while walking.
[Because three drops of divinity flow in your soul, this curse and the bad luck shared from the elves are greatly weakened; because the afterglow of the first fire warms your soul, the curse is slightly weakened; because you God's blessing and curse are weakened again. 】
"So it won't affect me?"
[It will still happen, but it won’t be as obvious as it was for the underage elf. 】
Shad nodded slightly, holding the piece of crow feather that Old John was probably willing to spend several hundred pounds to buy, and looked up in the direction where the crow had disappeared:
"The plan went very smoothly, and I was really attracted. After all, it is an ancient evil spirit. If we really weren't alert at all before we took action, then it would not be worthy of the doctor's description of being close to the so-called original devil." Now it has noticed me, and it should also have noticed the [Demon Hunting Seal] in my pocket. Very good, when it focuses its attention on me, the sudden appearance of the doctor will have the best effect. ”
Furthermore, it would be difficult for Shade to find its traces on his own without attracting the attention of the demon of doom, Fanarius, and causing him to show up on his own initiative.
