"Mr. Hamilton, the results of divination and prophecy are often vague and metaphorical. Therefore, this may not mean that you can become a knight, but something else. Besides, divination may not always be correct."
Mr. Stan folded his hands and admitted regretfully that Xia De did not comment on this, but made a thoughtful look.
Think about what to have for dinner.
After the divination, he bid farewell to Mr. Stein and Mr. Mark, and left the Prophet Association. Originally, payment was required after the divination, but the two gentlemen insisted on not accepting Shade's money. Compared with his contribution to the Tobesk branch on the Rhodes card matter, two shillings are nothing at all.
Instead, Mr. Mark invited Xia De to come to the association as a guest. In addition to the regular Rhodes competitions, the association also often holds poker games with many Rhodes enthusiasts clubs in the city. Occasionally, gatherings among divination enthusiasts would be held regularly, and Mr. Mark quietly hinted to Shad that many good girls would be there.
Returning from the cool indoors to the outdoors, the stuffy air woke up the sleeping cat. It is now two o'clock in the afternoon, which is the hottest time of the day.
Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Xia De planned to go home and read a book to kill the rest of the day. It was snowing in the study, but it was more comfortable than the divination room of the Prophet Association.
Not long after I left the Prophet Association, I was walking on the Silver Cross Avenue with my increasingly anxious cat in my arms, when I saw a young girl with long brown hair approaching. It was Iruna Bayas.
There was no one else around her, walking around like ordinary citizens. After meeting Xia De, he gave him a wink, but Xia De consciously didn't say hello.
So half an hour later, he welcomed Miss Bayas at home again.
After being invited by Shad to enter the room, Miss Bayas did not sit down immediately, but after getting permission, she walked into the kitchen of Room 1 on the second floor and observed the Yodel Palace from the kitchen window.
Because of the layout of the room, this window is the best place to observe the Yoddle Palace.
"no problem."
She wiped the sweat from her forehead before returning to the living room to sit down. Tilting his head and glanced at the side of the coffee table, snowflakes fell from the ceiling one after another, and then fell into the basin beside the coffee table.
I stretched out my hand to catch some snowflakes, and the cool feeling made the young girl very comfortable:
"Detective, what are you doing?"
"Cool the room."
Xia De, who was preparing tea in the kitchen, said that of course Miss Bayas couldn't think of Mysyria in this way, and only thought it was some kind of small-scale snowflake thaumaturgy mastered by Xia De:
"You have to pay attention to your own consumption. The spirit of a first-ring warlock doesn't have much. If you waste too much, what should you do if you encounter a dangerous situation?"
She exhorted in the tone of someone who had come.
"You're right, but the weather is really too hot...Miss Bayas, what were you doing just now? Didn't you just pass by by chance?"
"Of course not, it's the task of Blackstone Security Company."
Xia De originally thought that she would keep the mission information a secret, but she didn't expect to say it directly, as if complaining to Xia De:
"The royal family wants to find a group of ring warlocks to protect the Yordle Palace for a week. I heard that it has something to do with spies. The church didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing. Our cooperation with the royal family does not include being bodyguards for the other party. But it seems that the king agreed. Let some religious management regulations relax, and promised that we only need to protect the yordle palace, pay attention to the bold ring warlocks, ordinary people do not need to pay attention, so we were transferred. The job content is to monitor the periphery of the yordle palace, looking for suspicious persons .”
"Detective, do you know how painful it is to keep walking outdoors in this kind of weather? I'm on duty from one to four in the afternoon, which is the hottest time."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to grab a handful of snow from the water basin. After happily forming a snowball, he wanted to catch the cat with his frozen hands. But the cat Mia, who has become more and more intelligent recently, jumped directly onto Xia De's lap very quickly.
Xia De was very interested in church ring warlocks, so he continued to inquire:
"I don't know much about you, so is this matter the Blackstone Security Company appointed by the royal family, or is it a mission given to you by the church? This involves the issue of remuneration."
"It's all counted, so in addition to the church's contribution, there is also a large reward. The captain and the others are very happy... I am also very happy, and I don't even have to pay taxes."
Xia De expressed envy in his heart, but he didn't say it out loud.
Bayas was talking, looked left and right at Xia De's living room, hesitated before asking:
"Detective, can I stay here until four o'clock in the afternoon? I won't disturb you. Don't worry about that."
"Oh? Is your work not continuing?"
Shad pointed in the direction of the Yordle Palace. Although Miss Bayas acted immaturely, he always believed that she should be a very responsible person.
"I took a chair, sat by the window over there, and saw more things than I could see when I was wandering in the street."
She points in the direction of the kitchen.
"But stay with me. Once you find suspicious figures near the Yodel Palace, it seems that you can't rush there immediately... unless you jump out of the window directly."
Xia De also said that he didn't want to drive the other party away, but was just worried that things would be delayed.
"It doesn't matter. The chance of accidents during the day is low, so the main task is to observe, not to fight and arrest. Otherwise, a second-ring warlock like me would not participate in the task."
After finishing speaking, I was embarrassed and asked again:
"Can I stay here? It's just for today~www.mtlnovel.com~ Tomorrow is the other team's rotation, so we don't care about it."
Xia De thought for a while, and it seemed that there was no need to drive her away:
"No problem, but don't force Mia to follow you."
He saw Miss Bayas' attempt to catch Mia. The sorceress smiled shyly, but probably didn't give up the idea of hugging the orange cat.
"I promise not to touch your cat today. It's better to sit here than on the street. The temperature here is really good."
She said happily, stood up and adjusted the skirt, adjusted the folds of the collar of the lady's shirt, and then went to move the chair.
At first, she was worried that the appearance of Miss Bayas would bring about accidents, but nothing happened until she left the Saint-Andrés Square that evening.
Throughout the afternoon, Miss Bayas sat by the window, drinking tea while dutifully observing the vicinity of the Yoddle Palace. And Xia De took a book and sat on the sofa, chatting with her casually. It was a slightly cold afternoon.
