"The Grand Duke's lover... oh, I'm not talking about you."
Seeing Xia De suddenly looking at him, Director An Luosi immediately explained.
"I didn't say you were talking about me?"
Xia De also said the same, both of them were a little embarrassed, so they consciously bypassed the topic:
"It's like this. Virgil Cameron also went to Tobesk to join the players in the big city. But we suspect that his real purpose is to come to Tobesk and meet with people from Kasenlik."
Director An Luosi continued.
"Sorry, please wait."
Xia De raised his hand and asked hesitantly:
"You mean, he went to Tobesk to meet the other party? Isn't it more dangerous here than the small principality in the south? Even if the principality has been suspected by the royal family, it's better to find a small country town in the kingdom than Tobesk." Is Basco safe?"
"The specific reason is still being investigated, but it is probably because both parties don't trust each other, and they are unwilling to set the meeting place in a remote countryside. Moreover, this meeting is a top-secret operation. It is purely a coincidence that our people know the news. In short- "
Mr. An Luosi patted Xia De's shoulder with one hand, and looked at him with piercing eyes:
"Virgil Cameron will be closely monitored by us in Tobesk, but players in the big city are not allowed to enter the venues for the last three games. Although we have deployed manpower, it is not safe after all. So, if you and That Mr. Cameron has entered the finals with a small probability, I want you to do your best to monitor whether he has met with suspicious people."
The Dacheng Players Rhodes Tournament lasts for two weeks. The preliminary round starts on Friday, the rematch next week, and 8 players will be selected to participate in the final next weekend. There are three finals, and only guests with special invitations can watch the matches, and the invitations are issued half a year in advance, and even the list has already been announced. If MI6 had just received the news, it would be really difficult to temporarily place reliable personnel.
"If it's just this kind of mission, I think it's fine."
Xia De nodded, and he accepted the commission. Mr. An Luosi was very satisfied with his attitude:
"It is very unlikely that the meeting place of the two parties will be at the final venue of the big city players. After all, whether Virgil Cameron will be able to enter the final is something that no one can predict in advance. So, you don't have to feel pressure."
He smiled and let go of his hand, but when the two walked back to the front door of the equipment management office together, he turned his head and said to Xia De;
"Look at my memory, I remember it, Xia De, I wish you the best of luck in the game."
He patted Xia De on the shoulder again:
"Our agents, no one has ever made it to the finals of the big city players. If you can win the 1853 championship, I think I can raise your salary grade immediately. After all, we welcome people with professional expertise to join the team. "
When he left the city's garbage disposal management center, because he accepted the mission of MI6, Xia De unconsciously thought of the letter he was about to send.
Detective Sparrow had said that on the fifth day of September, that is, this Thursday, a letter would be mailed to 6, Place Sainte-Terraine, and the price for Shade to inherit all his inheritance was to put the detective's business maintained until that day, and burned the letter.
"Time flies so fast, today is Monday, Thursday..."
He wasn't quite sure if he would open the letter first to take a look when he received it. After all, he was really curious about that Sparrow.
Now that he had received Bailai's salary, Xia De took Mia out for a big meal at noon as agreed. The cat was sleepy after eating, so in the afternoon, Rumia took a nap at home alone, while he went to the city to deal with the monthly gas bills, steam bills, and his own advertising fees in the newspaper.
Coincidentally, at the steambird daily newspaper office, Xia De actually met Dorothy who came here to do business.
The editors of the newspaper office were carrying a sack that looked very heavy, and wanted to help Iluna lift it to the carriage parked outside the newspaper office. After inquiring about it, Xia De realized that it contained letters from readers.
"Do you read every letter?"
But when the two left the newspaper office, Dorothy told Xia De in a low voice that she would actually only read a small part of it, and she piled up the rest in the corner, thinking that she would wait until she had money to buy her own house When the time comes, these letters are piled up in the attic. After all, it was a letter from a reader, and even if she had no time to read it all, she would not throw it away or burn it.
"Actually, you can put it in my place first, anyway, my house is relatively empty."
Shad gave advice, and his attic was full of five sacks of letters. But in return, Dorothy, who spent the afternoon reading detective records in Shard's study, invited him to dinner at a high-end restaurant on Silver Cross Avenue that night.
when it's time to pay the bills, summer
Dorothy noticed that Dorothy had left the name of Rezia's maid.
"She won't mind."
Dorothy said with a smile, which reminded Shad of the picture of Rezia kissing him with Dorothy's body on Sunday night.
When he woke up early on Tuesday morning, Xia De remembered the wrong time, thinking that the letter that needed to be burned would arrive today. But when I got the milk outside the door, I was blown by the morning breeze, and I remembered that the letter could only be delivered on Thursday.
But today there was indeed a letter sent from afar. It was a letter from Ms. Mia Gold. The original owner of Mia asked about the situation of Mia Cat once a month, and mailed it to Xia De on time. £10 maintenance fee for a cat.
In addition to MI6's salary, this money is actually Shade's regular income.
In the letter, Ms. Gao De was still concerned about Mia's recent situation, and said that she had received the photo of Mia sent by Xia De last month.
She once again expressed her gratitude to the detective, but also said that her illness is still not good, and troubles in her hometown town are getting more and more. Not only strange rumors, but also some news about her family's past that has fallen.
She certainly won't be able to leave for Tobesk to pick up Mia within this year, so hopefully the detectives will be able to take care of the cat for a while longer.
"Didn't you say last month that it was just the flu? Why are you still recuperating for a month? Are family affairs really so heavy?"
Xia De was puzzled by this. While worried about the client's health, she was glad that she did not entrust anyone else to come to Tobesk to pick up Miya.
"But it seems that Miss Gothe is very rich, or her 'declining' family is very rich."
Xia De turned over the two pages of letter paper to see if there was anything on the back.
"If I want to buy Mia, I'm afraid I will spend a lot of money..."
Thanks to the sale of the murloc's elixir to Miss Galina some time ago~www.mtlnovel.com~ Xia De still has more than 2,000 pounds in savings. Although he couldn't tell what breed of cat Little Mia was, it shouldn't be expensive. But if Miss Mia Gold's love for the cat is superimposed, Xia De is not sure whether 2,000 pounds can get the cat from that lady.
"It seems that we still need to continue to test the other party's attitude."
He found the letter paper and prepared to write a reply:
"There are still four months in this year. In addition to this month, I have three opportunities to write and chat with Ms. Gould in October, November and December. I must determine whether the other party is willing to sell the cat before January next year. Give it to me. In fact, it’s good to procrastinate, maybe gradually, Miss Gao De’s feelings for Mia will fade...Well, I still have to prepare to save money.”
【Have you ever thought about what would happen if that lady died of illness? 】
Her voice suddenly appeared in the ear, Xia De thought for a while, then shook his head violently:
"I can't curse the client, and even if Miss Gothe really dies of illness, I will go to that town in person and tell me about my plan to adopt Miya in front of her grave. However, I don't want this things happen."
【Why? Don't want to take a long trip? 】
"No, I hope everyone can live well."
He uncapped the pen and chased away the cat circling around the inkwell, and the cat jumped on Shad's lap again:
"Everyone is mortal, but I hope that the people I know will not leave because of accidents."
