Lesia also noticed that Shade's eyes were attracted to a certain piece of fabric. She curled her lips, but of course it was impossible to say that she didn't want this thing.
But seeing Shade's eyes quickly looking at her again, Lesia gave Shade a warm hug:
"I thought it would be difficult to see you in Tobesk recently. Is there anything else at noon? If nothing, how about staying and having lunch together?"
She was obviously a guest, yet she extended such an invitation.
"No problem at all."
Shade agreed, threw the cat on the sofa, and looked at Miss Carina again. The red-haired witch was standing by the table, holding down the table with one hand, standing there in a very comfortable posture, looking at the two
People hug.
Lesia knew that Shade's sudden appearance here must have something important to do. So she sat on the sofa and chatted with Shade for a few words, then left the room temporarily on the pretext of going to the bathroom to touch up her makeup.
Tifa closed the door on the inside, and the witch holding the tea cup commented:
"My great-niece, from some aspects, is really the most qualified lady the Cavendish family has ever produced."
She asked Xiang Shade:
"Is there something urgent? The mission of Time Key, what do you need this time?"
"No, no, it's not the time key. I want you to help me find someone and let her go to the Randall Valley as soon as possible."
"The Randall Valley thing? Okay, who?"
"Marilyn Hendel."
Shade said the name, and Miss Carina frowned slightly:
"The woman Joey Barton swapped from death?"
"Yes, you gave her travel expenses and sent her away from Tobesk. Although I didn't ask after that, I don't believe you didn't send someone to keep an eye on her."
The witch smiled:
"Of course I can't let such a dangerous person disappear mysteriously. However, I didn't send anyone to keep an eye on her, but it's not difficult to know her schedule. Today is Tuesday, and we should be able to find her within a week. She is now
It should be in the United Kingdom of Kasenlik."
With the way of information transmission in this era, this speed is already quite fast.
"Well, let her go to Randall Valley City as soon as possible. Although the people of the Orthodox Church don't know her, they also asked her to avoid it carefully. There is a Fertile Land Hotel in the center of Randall Valley, let her stay there
, I will go find her in person, don’t worry too much, just arrive within half a month.”
"These are all small things, but what are you going to do? Are the women and souls carrying the curse of death still of use to you?"
"Of course, I want them to help deal with a soul that may cause trouble. This is triple insurance, and they are the third level."
"Soul? What soul?"
"The other party is not dead yet. I plan to kill him again after a while. This is to prepare for his death in advance."
Shade explained simply, and Miss Carina showed a strange expression.
This morning, Shade did not leave Carina Manor. After talking to the witch, Lesia came back. Because the weather was still cold, the three of them did not go outside for long activities. Miss Carina took Shade
I and Lesia visited the newly built greenhouse garden in the back garden after returning to Tobesk from Saladir County.
The last thing Carina Cavendish needed was gold pounds, so the garden had already been planted with flowers that would normally never be seen at this season.
She even picked a plump red rose that was blooming and handed it to Shade with a smile. Lecia asked seriously about the cost of building the greenhouse garden, as well as the time and manpower it would take.
.
Of course she didn't think it was a waste, but wanted to persuade Queen Diana to build one in Yodel Palace.
Today, Lecia and Miss Carina unexpectedly showed a relatively harmonious relationship, at least much better than what Shade remembered every time they met. After lunch, Shade also asked Leci
Ya's reasons, but Her Royal Highness did not want to explain to Shade, but asked him if he wanted to return to the city.
She planned to return to Yodel Palace in the evening, so she took the initiative to take care of Mia this afternoon and feed the cat in the evening. It seemed that she had something to talk to Miss Carina in the afternoon, and she still couldn't let Xia
Things that virtue knows.
In short, Shade returned to the city alone, and then at about 1:30 in the afternoon, he walked down the steps and came to the courtyard of the Church of the Forgotten.
After a month of simple renovations, Miss Lassers has led the believers to make this long-abandoned church look presentable. Although they planned to wait until spring to repair the big hole in the roof, it was not possible.
This church has burst into life from its silence.
After Shade left the Church of the Forgotten, he went directly to his destination, which was Count Granger's manor in the city. Cassandra Auction House sold three antiques that may be related to the Heart of the Earth.
In the game, statues and vases are most likely ordinary items, and the key at the end should be the key.
Because he did not want the identity of John Watson to be associated with the Golden Dawn Opera Company, Shade still visited in his own personal capacity this time, and Earl Granger also took time out of his busy schedule to be able to talk to
Shade had half an hour to talk.
In order to avoid missing the time, Shade came earlier, so after the servants brought him into the manor, they asked him to wait for a while in the lounge on the first floor.
It can be seen that Earl Granger, who has just returned from outside the city, really has a lot of things to deal with, because Shade is not the only one waiting to meet him in the lounge. Already waiting is a rather young newlywed couple.
, and is not a stranger to Shade.
"Mr. Henriquez, Mrs. Henriquez."
He entered the room, took off his hat and said hello, and the two people standing by the window talking turned to look at him. They were the protagonists of the country wedding banquet that Shade and Oxenfurt attended together.
"May I ask you are."
Young Mr. Henriquez didn't seem to have changed much during the week after his wedding. He was wearing a straight formal suit and asked politely. Shade shook his head:
"You probably don't know me, but I received an invitation from a friend and went to your wedding with him. I'm sorry that I didn't send my blessing at that time. Happy wedding, Mr. Enriquez, Mrs. Enriquez.
"
This simple blessing did not bring much joy to the young gentleman, but he still tried his best to smile:
"I want to apologize for not being able to entertain you well at the banquet. What would you call me?"
"John Watson, I am a writer who travels around the Old World in search of story ideas. Some time ago, I helped Count Granger find the family's lost antiques, and that's when I got to know the Count."
"Oh, are those two medals? I've heard about this too."
Mr. Henriquez spoke warmly, and while the two men were talking, the young newlywed woman stood alone by the window and watched them.
Neither of them recognized Shad, or in other words, they had never seen Shad and Stone Oxenfurt at all at that time. And judging from the current situation, although the wedding banquet ended successfully, it ended in an accident
The marriage at the beginning seemed to have shown disharmonious factors. Even though the man whom Mrs. Enriquez met when she was studying art in Willendale had died, the shadow of this incident still shrouded the newlywed family.
Xade didn't know if he still loved her, let alone if she loved him too. The marriage story of the Enriquez couple had been cast into a gloom early on, and it was usually difficult for such marriages to go very long.
The parents of the couple were both old friends of the count. They came this time to thank the count for the wedding gift. Therefore, Mr. Enriquez took his wife with him without saying a few words to Shade.
The butler left.
Shade did not wait long and followed the servant to the study. At this time, the Earl was sitting behind the desk, looking quite troubled. Shade sat down on the chair outside the desk:
"Earl, I haven't seen you for half a month, and you seem to be in poor health. Winter is not over yet, so please pay attention to your health."
"It's nothing. Spring is approaching and there are a lot of troubles."
He pinched the bridge of his nose, held his hands together and asked Shade:
"Then Mr. Watson, why are you here this time?"
"I continued to investigate the affairs of your great-uncle Thomas Granger locally and made a very significant discovery."
"oh?"
The earl's eyes lit up:
"Please tell me."
"I have not investigated his whereabouts after leaving home, but I have found that he once carefully investigated the origin of your family for a period of time."
The count nodded immediately:
"Yes, you actually investigated this and found this? I have only heard a few words from my father. My great-uncle likes folklore very much and is also very interested in family history."
"According to my understanding, Earl, your family has roots in this city even before the beginning of today's Universal Calendar, and is one of the original members of this city."
Hearing what Shade said, the earl showed an expression of implicit pride:
"The Granger family has played a role in the Randall Valley's development."
"There are very few historical documents and information before the Universal Calendar. It was a barbaric era. Fortunately, I have a friend who works at the university. He knows a very powerful professor of archeology and history in Tobesk. According to research, your family
The original origin is most likely a man with the surname of 'Lyman' who migrated from other places. Of course, this is just a theory. But some subsequent evidence proves that your great-uncle also investigated this
a little, and hope to find the grave of Mr. Lyman."
The above information is half true and half false, so as not to arouse suspicion easily. The count frowned slightly, he really didn't know about this matter:
