At the end, Dorothy blushed and refused to look at Xia De. Xia De guessed that if it was Rezia who said this, Her Royal Highness would never be so shy. The personality difference between Dorothy and Rezia is actually quite obvious.
"I didn't sleep on the sofa. I've already moved into the master bedroom over there, which was Detective Sparrow's former bedroom. I'm packing up my things recently, and I'll use the side sleeper as a guest room in the future."
Xia De said, and then brought Dorothy to the new bedroom where he is now living, and reached out to turn on the gas lamp **** on the wall:
"Look, the room here is bigger and there is a separate cloakroom. As the owner of the house, I have no reason to live on the side all the time."
"Xia De, you finally figured it out."
Dorothy laughed and said:
"I told Leiziya in the diary before that it's really strange that you live in an empty master bedroom. I just hope that after you live in the master bedroom, the curse here will not affect you."
"I don't believe in house curses, and don't let me leave my house for anything!"
"Meow~"
The cat also echoed, and Miya also liked this home very much. As for Xia De moving to a new bedroom, it has no effect on the cat, as long as it is at home and next to Xia De, it can sleep there.
"You just need to be careful, the location and living environment here are really good. Also...Lycia and I met Luvia here yesterday morning."
She said softly, Xia De knew that sooner or later he would talk about this topic, he just hoped that he could also get the so-called [Water of Wisdom] at this moment:
"Yes, Luvia told me. Did you and Rezia have a good time in town before the 24 hours were up?"
Dorothy then smiled:
"Very nice, we traveled a lot and bought winter clothes together, but Rezia puts those clothes in my apartment, and her winter dress is done by the royal tailor at the yordle palace... .Oh, Shad, don't you have anything more to tell me about Luvia?"
Xia De knew that he hadn't successfully changed the subject:
"Well... I know it's my fault, I want too much."
Dorothy pushed her golden hair behind her ears:
"Of course I know you are wrong, greedy knight. I want to ask, is Luvia angry with us? I didn't even dare to look at her expression yesterday morning, and Rezia was also a little worried."
"Luvia seems to be... a little angry?"
Xia De couldn't tell. Seeing him like this, the blonde girl was very dissatisfied:
"You don't care about this kind of thing, so what are you talking about when you and Luvia are together? Even if we can bear your greed, Xia De, you always have to consider our relationship, right? Next time I see Luvia at Dr. Schneider... oh, just thinking about that scene makes me cringe."
"this......"
"What did you guys do last night?"
The blonde girl asked with a reddish face, Xia De thought for a while, and said with certainty:
"puzzle."
Dorothy was taken aback:
"Is this a code word?"
"No no, it's really a puzzle, but other than that..."
Dorothy closed the door:
"Knight, the duet tango can only be done once every 22 days, let's dance solo tonight... I also want to know how you and Luvia..."
Pause deliberately, then reread:
"puzzle."
Xia De explained with some embarrassment:
"A puzzle is really a puzzle... But we have to agree, you and Rezia must not suddenly..."
Miss Writer covered Xia De's mouth, bit her lips next to his ear, and said:
"Xia De, I'm not that generous."
(Luvia is divination...)
Because he was punished by the tree father for not being able to use the time key within three weeks, there was no need to rush to open the key obtained from the narrow mountainside, and Xia De officially entered the repair state. That is to read at home and wait for the client every day, and occasionally go to Luvia or Dorothy.
Of course, Shad did a few things before Priest August returned on Sunday afternoon.
For example, on Wednesday, I went to the Raibert Bookstore, which cooperated with the "Steambird Daily", to participate in Dorothy's new book launch event. It wasn't a big event, and Dorothy was glad Shad was there.
Went to Fort Midhill with "Hamilton's Detective Stories" on Wednesday afternoon, gave two books to Grace and Helen, and attended Miss Aurora's farewell dinner that night.
In the name of Lady Carsonrick, many aristocrats and wealthy merchants from Fort Midhill were invited to the banquet. When the banquet was at its most lively, Miss Aurora was even on the big terrace on the top floor of the manor, watching the starry sky and had a few drinks with Shad alone.
She was very excited tonight, and she was probably a little drunk. With a blushing face, she wobbled and asked Xia De to promise that she would visit her in Carson Rick when she had time, and then boldly asked Xia De if he and Jialin How far has Miss Na's relationship developed now?
"Oh ma'am, we're in a normal relationship...but we kissed once."
So under the moon on the terrace, the witch with long brown wavy hair put down her wine glass, held Xia De's face and kissed him affectionately, then parted hesitantly, and looked at the wine glass in Xia De's hand with some disgust:
"Huh? So you didn't drink red wine, but grape juice?"
Xia De only learned from Miss Galina on Thursday that it is impossible for a twelfth-order witch like Xi Wei Aurora to get drunk.
"That woman..."
The red-haired Duchess snorted coldly, looking quite unhappy.
Xia De came to Miss Galina today because of a rare metal "sin metal". After completing the last time key, he gained knowledge about the great crimes in addition to the knowledge of vampires, so he knew how to associate the [Laziness] rune with the [Chain of Great Sins].
Once successful, not only the effect of [Chain of Great Sins] will be greatly enhanced, but also [Laziness], [Gluttony], and [Greed] will also be enhanced together.
[Sin Mark Metal] is an important item for the ceremony, and its refining process is related to the soul of the sinner, and it is a prohibited item stipulated by the Orthodox Church. It is also difficult to buy this controlled substance on the black market, so Xia De asked Miss Galina for help.
"Speaking of which, there are some things I want to ask you about Rezia."
The Duchess picked up the teacup, and the two of them were sitting under the grape arbor on the east side of the manor courtyard. The umbrellas shaded the mild autumn afternoon sun. On the white round table were afternoon tea and snacks, as well as a sleeping cat. .
Standing around were young maids in uniform. The grape trellises above their heads had no green vines in summer, and the bushes in the garden landscape farther away had long since become bare.
Tobesk officially enters winter around mid-November every year, which is the middle of the "Frost Moon". Today is the 31st day of the Moon of Dead Leaves, and winter is getting closer and closer.
At this time, two fat cats came running from a distance, one pure white and one dark blue. This is a pet cat kept in the manor, and it is also responsible for catching mice on weekdays. After all, mice are still permanent residents in cities and countryside in this era.
But before the two cats could get close, Mia, who was sleeping on the round table in the morning, suddenly raised her head. The small orange cat squinted its eyes to see the same kind, stood up at a very surprising speed, its tail shook, but the three rings on the tail did not move because of this.
Mia looked at them condescendingly, her beard trembled slightly, and she uttered a threatening cry:
"Meow~"
The sound of intimidating the same kind was not ignored because of its small stature. The two fat cats in the manor seemed really frightened and hesitated to approach them, and then they were taken away by the maids arranged by Tifa.
Miss Galina was also amused by this scene, and asked Xia De again:
"Yesterday I met Rezia at the Yodel Palace, and she seemed a bit off."
"What's wrong?"
Xia De asked while patting Mia's little head, Galina Cavendish glanced at him, and asked in a low voice:
"Knight, how does Princess Cavendish taste?"
Tifa standing behind her seemed to be holding back a smile, while the maids around her blushed slightly.
Xia De blushed all of a sudden:
"how do you......"
"Of course I have my own way, but I really didn't expect that little Rezia would be so bold even if she didn't want the dignity of a royal lady...and you, Hamilton of Regard, you are also really bold .”
The witch joked, Xia De put down his teacup and sat upright:
"I will be responsible, even if she is a princess, if her father disagrees, I will..."
"I don't mean that."
The witch interrupted Shad:
"Of course you will be responsible. Even if you don't want to be responsible, I believe Leiziya will find a way to make you responsible. What I mean by boldness is that you actually dare to provoke her. Leiziya's ambition is enough to separate herself and herself. Burning everyone around her, of course, I appreciate the ambition, it makes young girls more attractive."
"Rezia's ambition? Yes, I know, but I think she's going to get what she wants."
Xia De shook his head:
"Also, I am willing to help him."
The witch smiled slightly, not knowing what she wanted to express:
"But in short, the young knight and the ambitious princess finally had a further breakthrough in their relationship. In the contemporary court, this is a remarkable turning point in the story. Even in the unseemly court romance, this is a turning point... ...Oh, Shad Hamilton, you are a relative of our Cavendish family."
she said suddenly.
"Ahem~"
Xia De, who had just picked up the teacup, choked suddenly:
"relative?"
Tifa walked behind Shad and patted Shad's back lightly. Mia looked at him worriedly, and Miss Galina covered her mouth and showed a very ladylike smile.
"What kind of relative is this?"
Shad took the handkerchief from Tifa.
"Yes, what kind of relative is this?"
The witch said softly, and looked Xia De up and down:
"You must be prepared, my nephew Larousse III, to see you alone within two weeks."
"Um?"
Xia De was taken aback for a moment, and the hands that touched the cat trembled:
"he......"
"It has nothing to do with Rezia's matter."
The witch laughed, and Xia De guessed that she said that on purpose.
"In the middle of next month, Margaret Anjou, the second princess of Kasenrik, will visit Tobesk. Given the political relations between the two countries and the unpleasant events that took place in Tobesk during the summer, MI6 will accept It is a very important task, and we must ensure the safety of the princess of the Anjou family in this country."
"What does this have to do with me? Shouldn't it be Director An Luosi's business?"
Xia De asked hesitantly, and then thought that he had handed over the suitcase containing the difference engine to a princess of the royal family of Anjou at Midhill Railway Station, but he was not sure whether it was the eldest princess or the soon-to-be-visiting Madam. Gretel Anjou.
"Of course it has something to do with you, Xia De, aren't you the ace agent of MI6?"
"Me? Ace?"
Xia De pointed at himself, frowning slightly:
"Who said that?"
"Dak Anros said."
Shad's superior valued him very much, especially after he obtained information about Carson Rik during the "Grand City Players".
"So, the king summoned me to work for the princess's security? But this kind of thing, why can't it be my turn?"
"It's probably another special mission, not just security. Since the members of the Anru family have come here, they will definitely come with some secrets and missions. Probably, my nephew is planning something again."
She moved her shoulders slightly, then raised her hand to reject Tifa's shoulder squeeze:
"These are trivial matters. I think you should be able to handle them yourself. What I want to tell you is that the thirteenth seat of the parliament will come to Tobesk with that Marguerite Anjou. So , after their group arrives, I will not contact you for a while, I want to confirm Thirteen Seat's attitude towards you."
"The new great witch is coming to Tobesk? This is indeed a big event."
Xia De nodded immediately, remembering this incident, and then remembered that the princess he saw at Mibao Railway Station also had the power of a witch. At that time, he also asked Grandma Cassandra about the witch, but the old witch did not tell Shad the identity of the other party:
"I don't know who the other party is..."
"A very young girl, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com I remember that she is only 21 years old this year, and it has been less than three years since she officially became a great witch."
Miss Galina said that she would not take the initiative to disclose any information about the Great Witch to Shad, but since the other party is coming to Tobesk, there is no need to hide it:
"Emma Silvia, ten rings, is proficient in mathematics, etiquette and modern medicine, but is actually a witch who masters the power of space. Now she is the math teacher and personal doctor of the princesses of the Anjou royal family, so she will accompany her, She also has a very good relationship with the current Queen Carsonrique, and has close ties with the Anjou family. Yesterday she explained in the parliament that she would come to Tobesk, but she will not bring too many followers with her."
Miss Galina briefly introduced, and then added:
"She has been a great witch for a short time. Although she is also a tenth ring, she can easily kill her when she fights with Granny Cassandra, who is also a tenth ring. Not only because she is a very young girl, but also because She's more like a scholar than a ring magician. Emma Silvia doesn't usually speak much in parliament, and I don't know her very well."
