"is that so?"
The young girl with long brown hair seemed to be observing herself through Shad's eyes, and she stroked the golden ring on her finger.
Shard had mastered the art of talking to Miss Bayas:
"Yes, and we all need each other. You seem to be a newcomer among the so-called ring magicians of the Orthodox Church. You want to show yourself, so you need additional sources of information outside the church. In this kind of city, there are reliable Helpers and connections."
Xia De pointed to himself, and it was the first time he realized that he had such a good eloquence:
"And I am active as a detective in Tobesk City. Sooner or later, I will encounter the danger of today again. I also need someone to help me at that moment."
Instead, he took a step towards Miss Bayas, who backed away subconsciously, and then was slightly annoyed that he was scared by ordinary people.
Xia De stretched out his hand:
"Although it's just the first time we met today, I'm a poor detective from Saint Teresa Square, and you are a low-level warlock from the Church of the Sun. We both need each other's strength. This is a very good cooperation. The beginning of cooperation is Let's keep today's matter a secret."
Iluna Bayas stared at Xia De, and when Xia De almost thought she was going to refuse, she stretched out her hand and held the stranger's hand:
"You must be able to become a very good detective, not because of your social circle, but because of your intelligence."
"Thank you, but I really don't know the detective industry...Miss Bayas, if possible, please find the person who killed Mrs. Lawrence."
As he spoke, he looked at the carriage and the lying corpse in the alley:
"So what do we do now?"
Sacrifice as shucang.cc Sacrifice as. "Don't worry about leaving the body here. Let's leave immediately. Don't let the club's investigation have anything to do with the homicide here. Afterwards, I will use my own channel to report the incident to the church. They want to take us away , so that no one will notice that we boarded this carriage."
Miss Bayas arranged it so deftly that Shad thought she had done it before.
"As for you, detective, I think I will visit you in the near future, and I hope you will keep your promise. Of course, you must be safe recently. There are many dangerous people in the city. Not long ago, there was a man under the moon. Take it easy. It triggered an earthquake south of the city."
Miss Bayarth seems to have infinite emotion on this:
"When will I have that power."
"That... I won't tell your secret."
Xia De could only answer in this way, and in this way, Miss Anat's plan would not be destroyed.
"But when I take the initiative to tell her that I am a ring warlock, do I need to apologize for concealing it today?"
He asked himself in his heart.
While the detective and the sorceress are righteous, getting the loot after a kill is not about justice.
The sum of the change Shade found on the two of them was only 3 pounds 5 shillings and 10 pence.
"I thought you wizard-like people would be rich."
He also complained to Miss Bayarth, who exclaimed:
"We're ring magicians, not wizards, and there's never enough gold pounds, the same for anyone."
By the time Shard and Miss Bayarth parted, and walked home, it was time for supper.
But this day it was rare for him not to play with Mia for a while after returning home. Instead, he drew the curtains of the living room first, and in the dim environment, carefully took out the envelope hidden in his chest.
Miya rushed over immediately, thinking it was something to eat, but was immediately grabbed by the back of the neck with one hand by Xia De. Holding the cat in one hand and the envelope in the other, Xia De came to his bedroom, still drew the curtains, and sat at the desk without turning on the gas lamp in the room.
Carefully turning on the gas lamp on the table, there was some light in the dark room. Putting Little Mia on her lap, she took out the banknotes in the envelope with both hands, counted them carefully while licking her lips, and placed the banknotes in stacks of ten under the light on the table.
The elegant brass gas lamp was not turned on to its full brightness, so it could only illuminate the table area, not Shad's face. The outsider looked at his hands under the lamp and quickly and skillfully counted the number of gold pounds.
The short orange cat couldn't reach the table on Xia De's lap, so it had to step on Xia De's leg with its hind paws, and barely poked half of its head out from under the table by grabbing the table with its front paws.
It watched the man's hand twirling the banknotes skillfully. The cat couldn't understand the specific meaning of those pieces of paper, but thought this scene was very interesting.
After counting the money and repacking it, Xia De sat in the dark room for ten minutes with his head up and the cat in his arms. He carefully sealed the letter in the drawer, and pressed several books on the envelope. He solemnly put the drawer key into his pocket before leaving the room.
When entering the living room, a smile finally bloomed on his calm face. He picked up Little Mia with both hands, lifted it up high, and put it down again when the cat didn't know why:
"Let's go out and eat together."
He stroked the well-behaved orange cat, and his life really got better.
Regarding the contact with Miss Bayas, I should have notified the female fortune teller as soon as possible. UU Read Book www.uukanshu.com to confirm whether this will affect her "ingenious plan". But Xia De didn't know the address of the Seer. Fortunately, he was going to the Prophet's Association on Friday to make a final appraisal of [Founding Silver Moon]. Maybe he had the chance to meet Miss Anat in the association.
(Mia is running...)
When I woke up early on Friday morning, it was cloudy outside, and it seemed that it was going to rain. So Xia De took an umbrella and went out. As a result, he just walked to the entrance of Silver Cross Avenue when light rain fell from the sky.
Under the rainy sky, the city is still shrouded in thin gray fog, which is one of the reasons why Tobesk has the title of "Northern Fog City" besides "Northern Pearl".
Si minus bxWx.co Si. Stepping on the Silver Cross Avenue, stepping on the pavement paved with rectangular stone bricks, the mood is much better than the bad weather.
Mi He Mi. The entrance of the Prophet Association is still crowded with people. Even if there is no weather forecast, it is hard for people not to think of going out with an umbrella when they see the gloomy sky. Limited by the dye technology, most of the practical umbrellas in this era are black, but the rudiments of folding umbrellas have appeared.
The four-wheeled carriage passed by Xia De's side and stopped safely at the gate of the association. The police officers would also stop and take a look when they passed by.
Before the rain became heavier, Xia De merged into the crowd at the entrance of the Prophet Association, carrying a cane and holding an umbrella, and walked around the door from the back of the carriage with the family crest hanging and decorated with two ears of wheat.
After entering the room, I want to look at the bulletin board on the side of the gate. Although there is no need to sell the Rhodes cards obtained from Professor Manning because of the large income, it is good to understand the current market conditions.
