Director An Luosi heard some inside information about what happened in the reading salon, and knew that it was related to the church and those mysterious events, so he touched his nose and said nothing.
"Speaking of which, does this count as a work-related injury?"
Xia De said jokingly, and then his expression became a little more serious:
"I found out that His Royal Highness sometimes sneaks out. I originally thought she wanted to connect with mysterious people, such as the so-called 'Grey Eagle', but in the end it seemed that His Highness just wanted to take a stroll around the city. "
"We also know that His Royal Highness sometimes goes out alone, and the members of the Kasenlik Mission are also very helpless about this. But she wants to see the city, and we have nothing to blame, we can only try to ensure her safety. But I don't think that His Highness will personally connect with Grey-headed Eagle, she just arranges the people around her to do this kind of thing."
Director An Luosi sat on the sofa and analyzed:
"You have done a good job recently. Your Majesty has also heard about your contact with this Highness on social occasions. No matter whether she comes with a different purpose or not, we just need to make sure that she is surrounded by us on any occasion." People are fine."
With that said, he took out a card and handed it to Xia De:
"Continue to work next week. On Friday, His Royal Highness will visit and listen to lectures at the Third National Institute of Mechanics in the University District, from morning to evening. This is the entry and exit permit of the National Institute of Mechanics, you I will also go there that day. There will be a lot of people there, so pay attention to see if any suspicious people contact that Highness. Try to contact the princess directly, we all know that you have a good relationship with her. If possible, I hope you can always stay by His Highness's side. "
"OK."
Shad took the entry and exit permit, and Director An Luosi stood up. He was also very busy and didn't have time to stay here for a long time:
"After the visiting group leaves, His Majesty will reward you for your merits, and there will also be rewards within the Sixth Office. I won't be in touch with you often recently, and you shouldn't be in contact with the Sixth Office recently..."
This is why he came in person:
"Recently, our agents are not just fighting against gray gloves. There are quite a lot of strange guys in the city. Your task is to observe and report. Don't worry about other things. The Sixth Office is quite professional."
He waved goodbye to Xia De, opened the door and left here by himself.
Xia De put away the entry and exit permit, carried Miya back to the second floor, and before the girls could ask any questions, he said to himself:
"It's my boss."
"boss?"
Princess Margaret, who was sitting on the sofa talking to Goldilocks, was curious:
"Independent detectives also have bosses? Is it the so-called detective guild?"
"Oh, Your Highness, although my profession is very respectable in Miss Louisa's book, detectives don't always get jobs."
Xia De sat down on the short sofa on the side, and the orange cat was thinking about his breakfast, so he ran to the restaurant again:
"In the winter after the snow, I haven't received any commissions, but I have a lot of work at the end of autumn. I can't always sit at home and wait for commissions to come to me, so sometimes I will cooperate with Riddwich oh, Ridwich Field is..."
"Yes I know."
Princess Margaret nodded, Dorothy smiled and helped Shade explain, she knew what Shade wanted to say half-truthfully:
"A detective like Shad sometimes has to work closely with the police and accept official commissions to assist in the investigation. That's why he called the sheriff who contacted him 'boss'."
"The Great Era of Rebirth"
"At least Ridgewich is generous in paying, but not generous in reimbursement."
Shad said, tilting his head as Mia wiped out his leftovers in the dining room:
"Where did we talk about just now? Yes, it is not necessary to meet Sir Priscia alone for the time being. However, I am very interested in the ancient Priscia family. I have heard of the ancient surnames that have passed on the power of ring warlocks for generations, But I thought those families were all attached to the three major colleges."
In fact, Miss Aurora's family is an exception.
"Not every generation of the Pulisha family can awaken ring magicians, and the rumors of the ancient family are just legends. The nobles always like to brag about their family's history. I'm sure, at least in the last few hundred years, their family has never appeared. Some kind of special person."
Princess Margaret said, she borrowed a pen and paper from Shad, and drew the family crest of the Priscia family:
"The surrounding thorn patterns are the feats they added after their allegiance to my ancestors. The main body of the coat of arms is the family emblem preserved from ancient times, which is related to the surname itself."
In heraldry, those family coats of arms that seem quite complicated and gorgeous in the eyes of ordinary people actually have extremely rich meanings. Although Shad knew the noble coat of arms of Delarion, he didn't know much about the nobles of Carsonrick. Fortunately, Dorothy next to her has the knowledge of Rezia, and noble heraldry is a must-learn basic course in the princess's education. She looked at the pattern drawn by Princess Margaret with great interest, Then he pretended to be curious and said:
"I don't know much about that."
Princess Margaret shook her head:
"I haven't heard that Jazz's family has any connection with the church. Besides, ring magicians from the three major academies like us are very shy about having any connection with the church."
Xia De was also observing the family emblem, but before he could express his opinion, the bell rang again downstairs:
"Oh, what's the matter today? Did everyone choose today to visit me?"
He picked up the cat that had run over because he heard the bell, and went to the living room window and looked down:
"The rental carriage that I don't recognize is a very common carriage in the city. Who is it this time?"
"Xia De, take your guests to the second floor to talk, and His Highness and I will hide there for a while."
Dorothy pointed to Room Two, and Shad nodded. So she went directly to the wall next to the fireplace, opened the door that was almost integrated with the wall, and then turned around to signal the princess to follow.
Princess Margaret followed Dorothy to another room, and she was actually guessing about the relationship between Dorothy Louisa and Shad in her heart. Just now she thought that the blond female writer came here so early because there was something to discuss in the group. But now it seems that this is not the case. After all, the blond lady writer seems to be too familiar with this house.
On the other side, Xia De had already brought Miya downstairs. After opening the door, the person who was paying the fare to the coachman was a well-dressed middle-aged gentleman whom Xia De had never seen before.
He has beautiful brown hair and a very delicate mustache. He is wrapped in a black leather coat and looks like a fox fur scarf around his neck. The wallet in the left hand is made of crocodile leather, and the yellow metal decoration on the cane in the right hand is not surprising, it should be real gold.
He paid a lot of tips, and when the driver took off his hat and bowed with the banknotes and coins, he bent very hard.
The middle-aged gentleman stuffed the wallet into the pocket of the large leather jacket, turned around and saw that the door had been opened, he blinked:
"Detective Shadd Hamilton?"
"Yes, it's me, are you..."
The man took off his black leather gloves and held out his hand to Shad:
"Boris Cameron, Baron."
He grabbed Xia De's hand and shook it, with a heartfelt smile on his face:
"Detective Hamilton, I have admired your name for a long time. That's right, there is a commission that I want you to deal with. Do you have time now?"
"Consignment?"
Although Baron Cameron's enthusiasm was unexpected, Shad still nodded:
"Please come in."
He gave way to the door, and the baron in leather boots, like Director An Luosi, rubbed his shoes on the floor mats before following Xia De to the second floor.
Dorothy had put away the teacups, so Shad made fresh tea. During this period, Baron Cameron sat on the sofa and looked at the outfit of Room 1 on the second floor with great interest, and politely just looked at it without trying to touch any items.
After Xia De brought the black tea, the handsome middle-aged gentleman talked about himself:
"Detective, this is not what happened to me, it is my younger brother, Jimmy Cameron. Although we come from the same family, he failed to inherit the title of the family, and the factory was given to him when his father passed away~www .mtlnovel.com~ The baron explained his family background, which is a very common way of property division:
"Little Jimmy... I don't like to complain about my brother, but he obviously has no talent for business. He doesn't go to the factory very often, but hangs around in the city. I often go to underground casinos, or those illegal The club took him out, he is really worrying. But Jimmy is not the so-called bad guy, he just...has no skills, he just wants to have fun, and I have a good relationship with him."
The baron sighed, took out a black and white photo from his coat pocket and handed it to Shad. The photo was taken by a single person. The man who took the photo looked very similar to Baron Cameron, but it could be seen that he was not alone. The baron looked to be in his forties, and the person in the photo looked to be in his thirties, and was significantly fatter than the baron.
"Please don't worry, my brother is not missing. It's just that last week, he mysteriously found me and told me that he bought a very magical item."
Xia De looked up at the Baron:
"Amazing? That's an interesting adjective."
"Yes, that's a..."
Baron Cameron showed an embarrassing expression, and he also felt quite embarrassed when he said this:
"A box that replicates banknotes."
