The Whispering Verses Chapter 2431: Night episode
Chapter 2432 Night Interlude
The young black-haired witch looked at her student:
"The princess of the North Kingdom can even give her own sister, but you are still reserved. You don't really want to wait until Shade goes to Willendale City, do you? After all this time, you still feel that he won't give it to you. Promise? ”
"Teacher, I am a witch's apprentice and I must stay pure."
The messy blond hair hung casually behind Margaret, but Miss Sylvia joked:
"So what is the truth?"
Margaret raised her neck slightly:
"I'm waiting for him to speak first. If he takes the initiative, I will... Is she that impatient girl? ”
Miss Sylvia shook her head and looked at her students:
"Love and war are unreasonable, Carina always says that."
Then Her Royal Highness the Princess mustered up the courage and asked:
"Teacher, where are you?"
"My dear Margaret~ The witch and the witch's apprentice are still different."
Emma Sylvia, who thought she had left very quickly, said that although she speculated about what Carina and Shad had had, she still didn’t think she had lost much.
On the other side, Shade, who left Margaret Manor, did not return to the ship directly, but went to Spider Alley again.
It was a coincidence that this time, although Mr. Albert was not in the autopsy room, after the guidance of his colleagues, Shade found him in the Spider Hotel talking to Bernhardt.
When the two of them saw Sha De, they both extended their hands to say hello. Shade then also sat down at the table. After the innkeeper wearing an apron left, Shade glanced at Mr. Albert in a burqa, and then said to Mr. Bernhardt:
"Something big is going to happen."
"Well, don't big things happen all the time?"
The Vampire Seed Lord was puzzled, Shade raised his eyebrows:
"The real big thing, probably similar to the big thing at Middlesbrough last autumn."
Mr. Bernhardt was startled, and then almost jumped up from the table:
"Are you sure? No, you are not a joker. So when?"
Mr. Albert on the side was also listening carefully, and Shade did not hide anything:
"The church will probably find traces of the ritual soon. I can't determine the specific time, but it should be between the weekend and next Tuesday."
"This week? But today is already Thursday!"
Mr. Bernhardt immediately became restless. Shade did not comfort him, but asked again:
"How is the investigation into the businessman Thomas Pidgeon going?"
"I asked Captain Rudolf's connections to investigate Pigeon's fleet. On the surface, he was doing business with the Islands, but in fact, he had been doing smuggling business with the New World. I arranged for people to investigate his warehouse and cabin , it turns out that some magic potions and alchemy materials that are special to the Old World were discovered, and judging from the types, the person he was trading with must be the [Dragon Feast Order]."
"Caught a mouse."
Mr. Albert said while holding the wine glass, and Bernhardt sighed:
"Mr. Watson, after you find out if there is something wrong with Carmen Eddington, we will arrest Pigeon. Don't worry about him escaping. I have enough manpower now, and there are twenty-four people around him. There are people there all the time. And it would be better if he escaped. We might be able to discover more secrets with him."
"Tomorrow is Friday, and I will see Carmen Eddington at the Margaret Manor banquet in the evening. If he is really just an ordinary person, I can ask under hypnosis. If he is not, then the question will be It’s interesting.”
The innkeeper came over again and brought the beer that Shade ordered. There are no delicious drinks in this kind of small shop. Shade ordered drinks just to prevent himself from having nothing in front of him.
"After solving this matter, I will have nothing in my hands. We will be ready for battle from the weekend to next Tuesday."
Mr. Bernhardt has no intention of backing down. Now that he has come to this point, he has obviously made up his mind. As for the symbolic relics that Shade needed to summon the gods, he had already prepared them, but because Mr. Albert was here, he did not mention it directly.
"Mr. Watson, actually I also have something to ask you for help."
The coroner said from the side again, and Shade looked at him again:
"What happened?"
"It's not a very troublesome thing. If the matter is resolved smoothly, you can finally get a special rules Rhodes card as reward."
He spoke in a very calm tone:
"You should also know about the three precious playing cards that made a fuss in Yuewan City some time ago. Yes, you must know, after all, you have won one at the Parsifal Club. I know the most precious one. The whereabouts of the card, but some troubles need to be solved first. I wonder if you have time on Saturday?"
Xia De nodded hesitantly:
"I think there should be."
Although Saturday afternoon was the time for the group meeting, even Dorothy had already arrived at Moon Bay, and Tobesk was left with only him and the doctor. It would not be a big problem if the group study meeting was canceled this time. And since Ptolemy Albert made an appointment with him before God descended, he definitely didn't just want him to help.
"Well, Mr. Watson, we'll meet here at half past nine on Saturday morning."
"What's the trouble? Do you need my help?"
Mr. Bernhardt on the side also asked. Mr. Albert glanced at him and shook his head slightly:
"Armand, this time it will be just me and Mr. Watson."
They were drinking here just now, and they were also talking about ethnic traitors. Therefore, not long after Shade arrived, Mr. Albert left first on the grounds that the topic was over.
Mr. Bernhardt turned his head and watched his figure disappear, and then asked Xiang Shade:
"I can see that something is wrong with you today."
Pause a moment:
"Because of Ptolemy?"
"Yes."
Mr. Bernhardt was not surprised at all:
"Did you know that there is a very subtle mutual induction between vampires and vampires, and this mutual induction is stronger among higher vampires. There is currently no research to prove the origin of this perception, but it should About our blood
I am saying this nonsense to tell you that when I first came to Yuewan three months ago and saw Ptolemy, whom I had not seen for a long time, I already felt that he was like an unstable steam bomb. Although he is only a six-ring player on the surface, I probably can't beat him.
I originally thought he had some adventure, but so many things have happened since you arrived, and I have almost figured it out. [Blood Sorrow] should be in his hands, right? ”
Xia De nodded:
"I asked someone to investigate his identity and background. There are many stories in it. Let's go to another restaurant for dinner. I'll talk to you about this. I want you to evaluate this person from your perspective. ”
The Spider Inn also serves dinner, but apparently it doesn't taste very good. So the two of them left the lower city and went to the core of the city on the upper reaches of the Taton River to have dinner.
During this period, Shade explained the coroner's suspected origin, the reason for going to the New World after graduation, his experiences in the New World, and the general story of his middle age. Finally, he mentioned what happened yesterday when he was investigating [Eternal Light] and met the opponent's leader "Pious Cultivator" and was scratched by [Blood Sorrow].
Mr. Bernhardt already knew some of these things. He listened and nodded. It wasn't until Shade finished speaking that they walked together in the Parliament Square under Belindel's Big Ben. Give the answer:
"I know you may think that I am favoring my friends, but to this day, I still think that Ptolemy is a good and honest man. Otherwise, I would not keep asking him for help."
"I do not deny his justice."
Xia De also said:
"But is it necessarily right for a just person to do just things? We do not discuss philosophical issues. I also think Mr. Albert is a good person, but should we trust him completely?"
The middle-aged Vampire Seed Lord is not a stupid young man who has never experienced anything. Regarding this issue, he just remained silent.
At this time, night has fallen. Standing in the glowing fog, you look up at the towering Belindel Big Ben——
When~
The clock rang at half past six, and Shade had already made a decision.
Although he had dinner with Mr. Bernhardt that day, Shade returned to Belindel Manor before going home.
However, something unexpected happened that night. It was almost midnight, and the bedroom of the Hamilton Detective Agency was as hot as ever.
The blond hair was entangled with Shade, and Her Royal Highness the Princess was using the writer's body for the "second half." Their period of physical discomfort lasted for six days and finally ended.
She was kissing Shade passionately, when suddenly there was a knock on the door——
Dong dong dong~
"Someone is knocking on the bedroom door!"
Shad immediately broke free from Lesia's arm, which made Her Royal Highness very dissatisfied:
"Why did you stop? It's little Mia knocking on the door. She's probably hungry. Don't you want to help her lose weight? Ignore her."
"It's not little Mia, it's me. Doesn't that cat like to scratch the door?"
The clear voice of the red-haired witch came from outside the door, with helplessness in her voice:
"Lecia, open the door."
She knew from the conversation inside the door that the person on the "battlefield" at this time was Lesia, who was supposed to be in Yodel Palace.
"What are you going to do? It's ours as promised tonight!"
Her Royal Highness the Princess spoke in the direction of the door without forgetting to put her arms around Sha De's neck, as if she was worried that Sha De would suddenly run away.
"Of course there is something important. Just now my jewelry sent a message asking me to go to the parliament for a meeting. Didn't you hear me singing in the corridor? Something happened again over at Moon Bay. Shade, open the door. , I don’t want to listen to Lesia’s deliberate voice talking to you through the door.”
Although she was quite reluctant, Lesia also knew the priority of the matter, so although she was still complaining, she kissed Shade a few times and "let go" of Shade.
