The Whispering Verses Chapter 335: Three to Coldwater Port
"Well, it seems that it really can't be me."
Xia De smiled sheepishly, sat on the sofa and touched the cat beside him:
"Then we continue to divination, and now there are two blood money and one atonement coin left... After knowing the gender, we are actually still unfamiliar with those ten people... each other's The place of residence cannot be determined by divination. Oh, I want to know when the other party will leave Coldwater Port."
Shad wants to determine the scope of the search. He can only carry out operations in Coldwater Port and Tobesk City now. Even if he knew the other party's identity information accurately, once the other party left Coldwater Port, Shade would not be able to continue the search.
"Yes, but just like my initial divination of Iluna, it can only give vague results."
First use a civilization gold coin, and then throw out a blood money, but it is still ineffective.
Luvia glanced at Shade, and when he nodded, she threw away the last blood money. And when Luvia opened her eyes, what she said was really satisfying:
"The second person selected will stay in Coldwater Port for about a week and then go to Tobesk."
"Come here?"
Shad showed the same smile as Luvia:
"Then things will be much simpler. I went to Coldwater Port to inquire about information. I have friends there and can try to find out the identities of the ring warlocks who escaped last night. Even if I can't find the exact person in Coldwater Port, But as long as we know their identity information and determine which male among them arrived in Tobesk in a few weeks, the candidate can be determined."
"Yes, this seems to go more smoothly than my search for Iluna's identity."
The continuous divination made Luvia look a little unhappy, but she got valid information and she was also excited.
Because she still didn’t know who the second chosen person was, Luvia asked Shade to try to find him first. Even if he found him, don’t contact him immediately. Instead, he should determine the character and the force he belongs to.
What Luvia wants to do is to unite, ensure and witness the chosen ones standing in front of the last door, ensuring that the number of chosen people standing on her side at the last door is dominant. But if the other party is a bad person, Luvia has no interest in dealing with him.
"Leave the next thing to me. Before the other party goes to Tobesk, I will be responsible for the actions of Coldwater Port City. Except for me, everyone else is infected with the mermaid curse. I only need to find those who want to Those who break the curse will definitely gain something.”
He paused, thinking of Mr. Darkness who cheated by changing his cards when playing cards with him in the tavern, and then escaped on the pirate ship:
"Also, Luvia, I know the name of one of the people. Although that person probably won't show up easily in the tavern after the pirate ship accident, we can still trace it. In addition, there are about nine people. His identity is awaiting verification..."
Shad didn’t feel that this was a difficult task. Apart from finding someone himself, it was impossible for the church to go around the Coldwater Port officials if it wanted to find someone, and Princess Lesia would definitely have a way to get the list of people who were being focused on. .
"But I am more curious about why the other party chose to go to Tobesk a week later. My friend said that this curse is a regional curse. Once you leave the cold water port, the curse may occur Mutation. ”
This is Shade's only question at the moment.
"You should know in a week."
Luvia said, she sat there quietly, watching Shade pick it up and constantly caress its little head. Mia quite liked Shade doing this.
"Xia De?"
"I'm here, what's wrong?"
The purple-eyed fortune teller shook his head again:
"No, it's nothing... If your fifteen credits are really not enough, I still have unused relics here, you can hand them in. It's a pity, I don't trust you enough to be with you. You go there together."
(Xiao Mia is sleeping zZ...)
Early on Wednesday morning, the sound of rain hitting the window woke Shade up. The pouring rain probably started last night. In the morning, when I opened the window and heard the rumbling rain, it seemed as if it was about to drown the entire city.
Today is the last day of the Thunder Moon, and this rain is also the heaviest rain Shade has seen since he came to this world.
"When I see rain, I think of water. When I think of water, I think of giving you a bath. Mia, next month, I will give you a bath."
While Shade was getting newspapers and milk from downstairs, he said to the cat following his feet. The small orange cat followed Shade up the stairs, looking forward to breakfast for a while, but had no reaction at all to what Shade said.
It felt great not to have to go out on a rainy day, but Dorothy felt a little bad-tempered when she came to St. Teresa's Square in the rain. She was wearing rain boots and holding an umbrella, hugging her notebook and books tightly. Even if she came in a carriage, her body would inevitably get wet from the rain.
Today Shade is going to Coldwater Harbor to meet Princess Lesia, and Dorothy comes to Shade to help look after the cats.
Her main work recently is to write the detective novel that will be serialized in the "Steam Bird Daily" starting next week. She just needs to look through Shade's detective records as materials, so she will use the notebooks and books needed for writing. bring. While Shade was away, she could also take good care of Mia, which was a double kill.
"Want to see how I get to Coldwater Harbor?"
Shad kept the [Metamorphosis Ring] so that Dorothy could tease the cat. But the blond writer who was already preparing to write in the study didn't want to see the dangerous things in the basement. He just waved his hand in annoyance and asked him not to disturb him.
"Speaking of which, can I see you in Coldwater Harbor?"
Shad asked again, he preferred adventures with Dorothy to Princess Lesia, the "familiar stranger".
"Except for the mandatory exchange once a week and to avoid danger when encountering danger, we generally do not make exchanges. Moreover, Lecia will not help me write a manuscript here."
Dorothy said in annoyance, lowered her head and started writing. Shade was quite regretful, and after saying hello to little Mia who was licking her paws, he set off.
Mia the cat was not dissatisfied with Shade's departure. She knew it was raining outside and cats would not go out in such weather.
From the basement, I went to the sea cliff cave outside the Coldwater Port Pier. After emerging from the sea, I found that it was actually raining in Coldwater Port today.
When Shade landed from the coast in the rain, the waves that kept hitting the shore due to the strong wind almost swept him into the sea again.
But the rainy day meant that he didn't have to change clothes before going into the city. The "ugly fishman from the deep sea" shivered and arrived at the door of the Golden Rose Hotel on Hoglenz Avenue, still dripping with water when he entered. .
The fat owner of the hotel thought that Shade went out without an umbrella, so he kindly reminded him that there was hot water in the bathroom, but he had to open the steam valve:
"Never turn the valve to the end, otherwise the pressure will be unstable and water will leak from the gaps in the pipe!"
By the time Shade finished taking a shower and changed clothes in the somewhat cramped bathroom, it was already half past nine in the morning.
He wiped his hair and pushed open the bathroom door, and was surprised to find someone in the room.
The girl with red hair and a long skirt was standing by the window looking out at the rainy scene with her hands behind her back. The room that Shade rented was on the third floor of the hotel. From here, he could clearly see the entire neighborhood.
"Good morning, Prinn...Her Highness Lesia."
While saying hello, the princess was still a little uncomfortable. When the princess heard the voice, she turned around and looked at Shade with a smile:
"Just call me by my name, Shade, good morning. This should be the first time I use my body to formally greet you. It feels really good... Yes, you The day before yesterday, I was asked to introduce my identity."
She was wearing a relatively ordinary long dress today, but even ordinary clothes could not hide her unique temperament. Lesia took a step forward:
"Good morning, Hamilton of Rejed. I am Lesia Cavendish. I am very happy to meet you in Coldwater Port on this rainy summer day."
"Good morning, Lesia."
Xia De said with a smile, he felt that the other party was indeed familiar to him.
Then, Shade asked Lesia for more information about the follow-up of the pirate ship incident. And learned that since the night before yesterday, the church has been looking for the ring warlock who escaped from the ship that day. Of course, the princess was well hidden, and the boatman and servants who went to pick her up had been properly accommodated.
She only thought that the church wanted to know more about the pirate ship after learning about the sea return ceremony. But Shade knew that the church had already understood that there was a second chosen one among the escaped ring warlocks.
Coldwater Harbor may be about to see an influx of more strange people.
Shade then asked Princess Lesia for help to find out information about the ring warlocks who jumped ship at that time, and of course she agreed. Later, she asked about the mermaid curse, but the princess just told Shade not to worry, that she would be fine.
"Shadow, when you come here to visit me, how can you keep talking about these boring things? Are you always like this when you are with Dorothy?"
The red-haired girl is in high spirits today:
"Because of the curse, I was trapped in Coldwater Port for two weeks and couldn't leave. Finally someone came to see me. Let's go do something interesting? I can't teach you for the time being. This trip to Carson Rick, I didn’t bring too many books. Here’s the thing. I collected an interesting piece of information yesterday. There is a local ring warlock who was infected with a curse. He got rid of the curse by his own means. Do you want to go check it out with me? ? We will visit him as ordinary people to see if he can really remove the curse. If it is true, we will reveal our identities as ring wizards. ”
"Is there such a powerful person? Of course I want to go."
Maybe the people on the boat will be attracted too.
"Does the church know the news? If this method can be promoted, wouldn't the mermaid curse be solved? The sea return ceremony will also be solved."
He asked again.
"But the premise is that the ring warlock infected with the curse really gets rid of the curse, so we first visit in a private capacity to confirm the specific situation."
The red-haired girl raised her hand and touched the ruby on her ear, and asked with a smile:
"Hamilton of Rejed, are you willing to pledge with the honor of a knight that you will protect the princess you are loyal to today?"
A knight's allegiance is to the king, not the royal family, so strictly speaking, there is something wrong with Princess Lesia's statement at this time, but Shade is not stupid enough to correct it now:
"Oh, yes, Your Highness."
He said cooperatively, guessing how the blond female writer would react after telling Dorothy this conversation.
