Miss Sylvia obviously wanted to send out an invitation for a private date.
Xia De thought about the things in his hands. He just wanted to wait for Iluna to arrive, and then discuss the plan with Iluna and Luvia. If there are enough coins, it is also good to scry the sapphire earrings, and the hexagonal gems:
"It should be fine."
"So, how about going for a walk in the city with me? I haven't been to this city for a long time."
The young witch bit her lips and said, looking at Xia De, there was something that Xia De could not refuse.
So Xia De spent the whole Thursday morning shopping in the city with Miss Sylvia. They returned to Miss Bernice's manor before lunch, and as the inventor of man-made fibers, Miss Sylvia took Xia De to her room again, and after changing into black fabric, asked Xia De to help carry some opinions.
As a result, when the two of them were talking about the crucial moment, Miss Sylvia was holding Shad's hand to taste hu, and Miss Benanis, who had no habit of knocking on the door in her own house, opened the door and came in, asking them to eat .
As Shad learned later, Miss Sylvia had not spoken to Miss Benanis all day.
In the afternoon, he and Miss Aurora went to clubs in the city to discuss business. It was only then that Xia De knew that the construction project of the second shipyard in the southern part of the United Kingdom Navy was actually related to the Aurora family.
It is even better to say that the large shipyards in the Old Continent more or less have the presence of the Aurora family. In the evening, the witches watched the opera together with Shad in the private box on the top floor of the Oscar Wilde Opera House. After the opera ended, Shad accepted the invitation to go to Miss Bernice's manor, and together with the ladies in pajamas, held an evening tea party in Miss Bernice's bedroom on the third floor of the manor.
This is indeed very interesting, but Xia De still feels a little bit of doing these things when the number of petrified plague victims in the city is increasing every day, and the fallen elemental genies outside the city are patrolling the wilderness, and the black mud flowing from the twisted source of the earth is flowing on this land. Something is wrong.
When he sent Luvia back to the Harvest Land Hotel that night, he mentioned his opinion. The purple-eyed girl said goodbye to Xia De outside the hotel, and gave him a gentle hug:
"That's why we said that you are always tense, and it's good to relax like today, isn't it?"
"But I relaxed yesterday."
Xia De corrected, Luvia pouted slightly, and then stretched out her hands to tidy up Xia De's neckline. Although the temperature at night is rising every day, in Luvia's view, Xia De is still recovering from a serious illness, and he must pay special attention to his health:
"The story of Randall Valley is coming to an end. It is normal to relax before the final battle. Your high fever scared me. In fact, when you think about it, you really don't have much time to rest. Wait until This matter is over, I return to Tobesk, in the spring of 1854, we have nothing to do, and we don't care about the next chosen one, I will be with you."
Standing on tiptoe, he kissed Xia De on the side of his face:
"Go home, Dorothy may be waiting for you at home. I won't feel well for the next few days, so you don't have to stay with me in Randall Valley."
She said softly, Xia De looked at those purple eyes, and felt guilty again in his heart. Little Mia is running...
"Long time no see, Shade!"
On Friday, which is the 28th day of the Starry Moon, early in the morning on the last day of February, when Xia De came to the Harvest Land Hotel again, he immediately saw Iluna sitting by the wall and reading a newspaper. After all, as long as Iluna appears in the field of vision, in Xia De's eyes, it seems that all the light is converging on her.
At this time, Iluna was wearing a very southern-style plaid dress with silver inlaid on the waist, and a leaf-shaped hairpin decoration on her head that she didn't know where she got it from.
Because Xia De had breakfast at home, it was already past eight o'clock in the morning. When Xia De sat down opposite the seventeen-year-old girl, Iluna greeted Xia De happily:
"Luvia just left and went to the Prophet Association. She said that the association had something to do at noon, so she would not come back."
"Good morning, Iluna. Then let's meet Luvia again tonight. Is your trip going well? I heard that something happened to you halfway?"
Xia De also greeted with a smile, and noticed that the "Randall Morning Post" held by Iluna contained the news that the first Randall flower that bloomed next week would be noticed by people.
Every year, the first Randall flower found to bloom will be sent to City Hall and kept in a showcase in the hall as evidence of the arrival of spring. Those who send flowers can receive a considerable amount of bonuses, and the local citizens are very enthusiastic about this urban tradition.
"Oh, there were some small things on the way, but we solved them all. That town is really embarrassing, and dared to provoke us."
Iluna replied casually.
"It's my own request. I want to go around the city to see the situation." She put the newspaper aside:
"It's useless for me to stay in the church now. I don't want to attend those annoying but necessary meetings... just read the minutes of the meeting. So, taking advantage of the church meeting today, I Just come out and walk around."
Then he sighed:
"On the way here, in addition to the haunted town, we also encountered the crazy land. Yes, on the way here, none of us in the boat can completely solve the problem. I am considered a balanced candidate. I can only ensure that I will not be affected when I step into that area, but I can't reverse this distortion. Compared with the earth, my strength is still not enough."
"I heard that since this week, five different cities have reported the news of Crazy Land." Xia De also added, and Iluna nodded:
"Actually, there are seven cities, and two of them are in the countryside. They are too remote. If this continues, sooner or later, the entire Old Continent will be infected with the curse of the earth. But fortunately, there is a solution, and now we are waiting for the final ceremony. ...From this point of view, the task of my business trip this time is simpler than the previous two. During the Midhill Fort, it seemed to be involved in a large-scale battle; the Pantanal incident, and there A hasty march through a dirty swamp. And now you just have to stay in town and wait for news, which is nice."
"So, how do you feel about Randall Valley? Compared with Tobesk." Shad asked with great interest, and Iluna thought for a while:
"It is rumored that the weather here is always good, but I only found out this time that the weather in the Randall Valley is as bad as Tobesk! And the thick fog here also smells of rotten eggs and stinky cabbage leaves."
She is very dissatisfied with this.
"This is the impact of the crazy land. When I first came here, there was no fog." "I really hope to see the river valley in spring. The scenery here is very famous."
Iluna said again, quietly glanced at Xia De's expression:
"The church knew that I wanted to come out casually, so they showed me their list of unfinished tasks."
With that said, he pointed to the small bag placed against the wall:
"If I have time, I can deal with it. It can be regarded as learning about the customs and customs of the Randall Valley, and at the same time earning a bounty for myself. I think it's okay anyway. If I take a look around the city, it's better to take a look at the problems of this city. ,so......"
She continued to watch Xia De quietly. "Then let's go together." Shad said:
"But I plan to go to Huntington tonight and visit the lady in the lake. So, I can only stay in the Randall Valley until about evening."
Although the "Lake of Cherubim" where the goddess of the lake is located is generally only open when the sun has not yet set, Xia De believes that he should be an exception.
"no problem."
Iluna controlled her joy:
"Then let's discuss where to go for the first stop. Although there are many ring warlocks supporting the local area, there is still a shortage of ring warlock teams that combine the middle ring and the low ring~www.mtlnovel.com~ So these tasks in my hand , most of them need to be dealt with by the team. It is difficult, but it does not require high-level warlocks to take action.
As for the difficulties that can be solved, why not let me choose..."
She took out the rolled parchment from her small bag, skimmed over the tasks that needed to go to a town far outside the city, gave up the boring rumors of haunting, and finally chose one:
"This seems to be necessary to investigate. Let's go and have a look. There are reports in the city that there have been reports of flower girls disappearing recently."
"Oh? What's the specific situation?" Xia De also raised his interest.
"You know, most of the children who sell flowers on the street are girls from poor families. It is difficult for this kind of child to disappear and attract official attention immediately. This time it is a local baron. Let me check the surname, yes, yes The daughter of Baron Burnsett wanted to try the job of selling flowers, so she went to the street to sell flowers accompanied by her own maid, and then disappeared with the young maid. The disappearance of the noble lady, Only then did the local police department launch a thorough investigation, and thus became aware of a series of similar incidents recently."
Iluna said, Xia De frowned slightly:
"It won't be another child trafficking case similar to the one that occurred in Tobesk City last summer?" Xia De was shot in the street because of that incident, so his memory is still fresh.
"No no." Iluna shook her head:
"The missing children usually come back in about a week. Except for slight malnutrition and blood loss symptoms, there is no other damage to the body, and even the clothes are still the same as before the disappearance. However, they will lose the memory of this week. , because the flower girls are not very old and are not suitable for strong memory recovery, so as not to damage the brain, so there is not much investigation progress yet.”
