"After so many years, all the resentment is over, but in the end, I always want to make things difficult for me, so I made this request."
"Yes, as long as you have money, it is actually not troublesome to find a poor nobleman to read the eulogy. Therefore, this can only be regarded as a embarrassment. They probably hope that Mr. Watson can be buried as soon as possible."
Shad agrees that the most indispensable thing in a place like Tobesk is the nobleman, and the most important thing for Mrs. Watson is the gold pound.
He picked up the tea cup and pretended to drink water, but he was actually thinking. After putting down the teacup, he asked again:
"So you want me to go?"
"Yes, you, Hamilton of Regard."
Xia De cautiously shook his head:
"Sorry, although knights are considered nobles, they still don't have titles. Why don't you find those barons who are in urgent need of money? I don't think it's troublesome."
Mrs Watson gave the answer:
"It's really not troublesome, and I'm willing to pay for it, but after all, it's my husband's funeral. I still want to find someone who is upright, kind, and of good character to read the eulogy, not strangers who take money to do things." Lavender said to After I introduced you, I don't think anyone can be more qualified than you, I read the newspapers, you are very good."
Xia De also agrees with this point, not because the other party praised him, but if he chooses himself, he also hopes that the guy who reads the eulogy at his funeral is a good person with a reputation.
In particular, he has been in the limelight recently in the newspapers, so it is very reasonable for Mrs. Watson to come to him through a friend's introduction.
"I originally wanted Lavender to help, but he has no time in the afternoon and has a big business to discuss."
"The funeral is this afternoon?"
Xia De asked with some embarrassment. Before Thursday, he didn't really want to spend time doing other things.
"It won't take long, up to two hours. The reward is 20 pounds, and the travel expenses will be reimbursed. I heard from Lavender that you like the Rhodes card? Then add a Rhodes card with special rules."
"Hmm... have you told the baron about the reward?"
Shad asked.
"I didn't say at the time that since he has business, I can't bother him. Mr. Hamilton, if you don't agree, I think I should visit someone else. There are some backup options, but they are not as good as you."
"Um......"
If Baron Lavender knew the content of the reward in advance, he would never give up the opportunity to Shad.
"What is the address of the cemetery chosen for the funeral?"
"I bought a compartment in the catacombs in the third section of the eastern section of the Tobesk Public Cemetery."
"Wait a mininute."
He stood up and walked into the study, and found the receipt in the drawer when he handed over the body of Detective Sparrow to the gravekeeper. The address for burying the body was No.
The distance between the two is very close.
"Why don't you pay a visit to Detective Sparrow before you have to do big things."
With this in mind, he considered the entrustment, and finally agreed to accept the entrustment.
An appointment was made to meet in the afternoon, and it was only eight o'clock in the morning when Mrs. Watson was sent off. The rest of the morning was spent by Shade practicing thaumaturgy and adapting to the sage-level relic.
Although with this necklace, you can't use the power of the mythos, but at least the already strong becomes stronger. Even if no one was found to experiment, Xia De fully believed that apart from the power of the relic, otherwise the seriously injured silver-eyed person would never be able to resist his own attack.
When Xia De was preparing the cat food, Mia would usually go aside very "reservedly", pretending not to care, and when Xia De finished pouring the cat food, she would rush over immediately after saying hello.
It was the same this time, when Xia De was pouring the expensive cat food at the dining table, the small orange cat was lying on the window sill of the living room, as if he had developed a strong interest in the street scene of Saint Teresa Square.
"Mia~"
He yelled, then thoughtfully sat down on the table to finish his lunch.
The orange cat trotted over happily, but when he looked down, he didn't eat right away as usual, but stopped there.
It looked up at Shad, its large amber eyes reflecting the frowning, wandering look of the young detective.
"Meow~"
So he trotted to Xia De's trousers, stretched out his paws and pulled his trousers, and then yelled again.
Looking up expectantly, Xia De still held the spoon and looked thoughtful.
"Meow~"
It barked again, seeing that Xia De still didn't respond, so the cat backed up a bit, then jumped forward, grabbed Xia De's pants and came to his lap.
"Oh my pants!"
Now Xia De finally noticed the cat that wanted to attract attention, hugged the cat and "pick" it off his pants, and saw that the cat food didn't move a single bite:
"What's the matter? Don't you like eating these?"
"Meow~"
Xia De wasn't trying to talk to Mia, he was just joking. Unexpectedly, the cat stretched out its paw and pointed towards the kitchen cupboard where Xia De stored a large amount of cat food.
The big amber eyes looked at him, and the orange pattern on the back seemed to be shining in the sunlight coming in from the window.
"You mean there's not enough cat food?"
Xia De tilted his head and glanced at the lunch prepared for the cat, then asked in a little surprise. But this time Mia didn't show that she understood what he said, she just squirmed in Xia De's hands, trying to make him put it down:
"Can you understand human speech?"
He bent down to put the cat down, and Mia rushed to her lunch immediately:
"Didn't Miss Anat say it was a normal cat?"
Xia De got up to get the bag of cat food:
"Am I overthinking? Or ~www.mtlnovel.com~ cats can really be so smart?"
Looking sideways at Mia, the latter squatted obediently next to his cat food, looked at him expectantly with his head up and his tail flicking:
"It seems... just a little smarter."
Regarding whether the cat temporarily residing at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square was normal, Xia De had already consulted the woman's voice in his heart and Miss Anat, and the answers he got were all normal.
Therefore, his suspicion seems to be just his own paranoia, but because this cat will not leave until at least winter in the foreseeable future, so Xia De thinks that if he has time, he can take it to Miss Galina Check it out there.
Of course, Cat Mia didn't know what Xia De was thinking at this time, and the cat started to feel sleepy after lunch.
As usual, it lay on its back a little away from the snowy water basin, allowing the sunlight through the mist to shine on its back, enjoying a pleasant afternoon.
The life of a pet cat is really leisurely.
