Just like what Xia De said, no one can believe that the ace agent, the "grey eagle" who has done countless great things, is sleeping in such an unknown corner. His story, everything about his past, no one will have the chance to know again.
"Margaret, please say something for Detective Sparrow."
"Grey Eagle, on behalf of the Anjou family, thank you for your contribution."
The princess said softly, stretching out her hand to touch the tombstone:
"On behalf of Xia De, thank you... Please sleep peacefully in a foreign land, and may your soul sleep forever. In the name of the royal family, although I cannot bestow you with glory and wealth, the spirits of the ancestors of the Anjou family, with You are with me. Your story is over, God bless your soul."
She softly praised the righteous **** "Ms. Creation", and respectfully drew the holy emblem under the button of the cloak on her chest. Then he took off his own ring and handed it to Shad. Shad dug a deep pit beside the grave and buried the princess' ring next to Detective Sparrow. This is the honor he deserves.
Margaret looked at Shad:
"In the name of Marguerite Anjou, I appoint you Gray Eagle."
"You are just a princess, you have no such power."
Xia De corrected, then pointed to himself:
"I don't need your appointment."
He said seriously:
"Because I am the Gray Eagle who has inherited everything. But from now on, the Gray Eagle will be loyal only to you, my princess."
He bent down and bowed to Princess Margaret, who nodded reservedly:
"After seeing the loyal agent, let's go back now."
Instead of going to see the former detective sleeping peacefully in a foreign land, the two turned and walked towards the snowy night.
"Do you know, Xia De, if it wasn't very impolite to kiss in front of other people's tombstones, when you called me 'my princess' just now, I wanted to keep kissing you."
Only the whispers of the two came from the darkness.
"Go back to the carriage in Canary Manor, you can do this...Can you return me the note I wrote to report the bomb, maybe I can use that note to get a lot of things for myself."
The hooded girl in the dark slapped Shade:
"I'm leaving tomorrow, will you miss me?"
The young detective's chuckle was almost inaudible:
"Perhaps soon, Margaret, you will meet me in a place that surprises you."
"Is that so, I just hope that...the carriage on the way back can be slower."
It was 7:34 p.m. when he left the Canary Manor, and when the carriage stopped one street away from the manor, it was 9:56 p.m. on Tuesday night, which was exactly the same as Shad originally estimated. The time has changed a lot.
But even though it had been a lot of time, they still didn't return to the manor immediately. At the request of the princess, Xia De, who could only kiss the princess, kissed the southern girl who was about to return to China again in the snow.
But when they were about to follow the same path and turn back from the back garden wall, they unexpectedly ran into Sir Priscia who also seemed to have come back from the outside. As a member of the visiting group, it stands to reason that he should not be able to leave the banquet easily.
Sir Priscia was in a hurry, and he didn't even notice the two Shade who entered the garden one step earlier. At this time, the two were kissing goodbye for the last time. They were frightened by Jazz, so they hid in the corner of the garden and watched Jazz pass by, but the latter didn't notice them.
"What's Sir doing up so late?"
Xia De thought in surprise, but Margaret kissed him again, asking for a final farewell:
"Don't go see me off tomorrow, knight, I'm afraid I won't be willing to part."
She pushed Xia De, as if to give herself the courage to say goodbye to him:
"In summer, I hope to see you in Willowdale...see you again...don't forget to wear lipstick."
As he spoke, he left in a hurry with red eyes, leaving only Xia De standing there carrying the suitcase.
He sighed slightly, and put the suitcase into a toy in the dark and put it away:
"A thousand pounds."
After walking a few steps forward, a brand new figure stepped out. The purple eyes seem to be shining in the lightless garden. Luvia probably just entered the garden because there was no snow on her shoulders.
"I just saw that Princess Margaret left with tears in her eyes."
Luvia said with a chuckle, then stared into his eyes and added:
"Don't say that the wound on your mouth that is about to heal has nothing to do with her."
"Related, she said, to make me her lover only for kisses, and I'm still a gray hawk, loyal only to her."
There was a mocking expression on Luvia's face:
"Another girl who wants both, staring at the position of the Witch Apprentice, but still entangled with men. If she didn't meet you, her ending is doomed to tragedy. Young girls always don't understand, If you are too greedy, you will only harm yourself."
"Feel sorry."
"What am I apologizing for? If I couldn't stand this kind of thing, I should have taught you a lesson when I found Rezia Cavendish and Dorothy. They didn't understand how lucky they were to be in It is impossible to meet you, but I understand."
She snorted, stood side by side with Xia De with her hands folded on her chest, and looked in the direction Princess Margaret left, letting the snowflakes dye her hair white:
"That's good, at least we have a loyal and reliable ally of secular power in Carson Rik. A lover who can only kiss... Hmph, what a greed."
After ridiculing, he looked at Xia De again:
"The dance is about to begin. You don't have any other dance partners tonight, do you?"
Rezia is attending an important meeting at Yodel Palace tonight, which is said to be related to His Majesty the King's public speech at the end of the year. It seems that there is a problem with the statistics; it is impossible for Miss Sylvia to dance with Shad in such a public place , even if she really wanted to do so; and Princess Margaret, who had just left, had already said her final farewell.
"of course not."
Luvia nodded, and asked quite arrogantly:
"Don't look like that, dancing with me, is it something unhappy? Shade, I just hope that if you plan to become the behind-the-scenes ruler of the Old Continent, remember to notify me in advance, and I will do well Manage the preparation of this home."
"Sorry, what?"
"nothing."
She took Xia De's hand:
"Come on, let's go dancing. And, I'm spending the night at your house tonight..."
Staring at Xia De's purple eyes, they are really shining:
"Remember to tell me what you did to that princess during the two hours you left."
(Iluna is praying...)
The delegation led by Princess Margaret finally left on Wednesday morning.
According to the agreement, Xia De did not go to the Tobesk railway station to see the princess off, but was on the side of the railroad tracks outside the railway station with Luvia, watching the train pass by in front of him and headed into the distance.
"Let's go back."
Xia De said to the purple-eyed girl that the snow last night lasted until midnight, and it stopped falling at this time. But even then, it's still not a good idea to stand outside in this weather.
"I just didn't expect that you really didn't do the final goodbye."
Luvia looks good today.
Xia De looked at the direction of the train leaving from a distance:
"The steam airship landed in Huntington on Saturday morning, and I can even go to meet it at that time. What are you doing to say goodbye?"
Turn around and leave with Luvia:
"Continuing the topic just now, it's a pity that you talked so much with Miss Sylvia at the banquet last night, isn't she the last candidate?"
"Yes, but unfortunately, she is not. But this lady is indeed quite intelligent, maybe you should accept being her apprentice, which will be very helpful to you."
Luvia also sighed, and the two walked around the low wall on the side of the station and returned to the street to go back in a carriage:
"The two known so far are still Likins Priscia and the vice president of the Truth Society. It is really difficult to choose the candidates this time."
Shad agrees with her.
They got into a carriage at the corner of the street, but Shad didn't let the coachman take them back to Place Saint-Terraine, but asked the coachman to take them to Mr. Booker's library.
On Monday two days ago, Shad and Sir Priscia, who had already boarded the train, recovered the "Book of Fools" there, and Shad promised to take time to visit the hapless book collector.
Luvia also heard Xia De talk about this matter, and even knew that Xia De got a book of relics and planned to give her as a gift for the end of the year.
The carriage arrived at the destination very quickly, but after stopping at the intersection, before Xia De stepped out of the carriage, he heard the driver's surprised voice:
"Oh, what happened here?"
"What's wrong?"
Xia De, who jumped off the carriage, looked up, and was surprised to find that the original location of the library ~www.mtlnovel.com~ had been burned into ruins. Smoke was still rising from the ruins, and the buildings on both sides of the library were also severely damaged. It was obvious that the fire had just been extinguished.
The smell of burning was unusually pungent, it was very messy everywhere, and the ground was already frozen.
A fire water truck pulled by four black horses was parked in front of the ruins. The hose port of the red spray-painted fire water pump driven by a double-cylinder steam engine on the carriage was even dripping water on the muddy ground.
The air was cold but humid. City firefighters in heavy scarlet uniforms were still checking the fire in the ruins, while police officers on both sides of the street were asking the neighbors about the situation. The onlookers watched all this with great interest, while the fat boss of the shop next door was crying and complaining about the injustice of fate. Even passers-by would temporarily stop and turn their heads to check the situation here, and the idlers who were discussing the disaster loudly with a Tobesk accent had already let Luvia know what happened here:
"Fire?"
Luvia got off the carriage and stood beside the shocked Xia De, frowning slightly as she watched the scene in front of her.
