Chapter 2091 Women and men under street lights

 "Xia De, I didn't say that the witch's crush was you. Why are you reacting like this?"

Luvia threw the card in her hand to Shade. Shade clamped the card and was choked by these words.

Then the smile on the face under the candlelight across the table became even brighter:

"I felt very good when I drew the cards just now, so let me continue to help you divine the origin of the mysterious Miss Eleser you mentioned. You said that there is a miraculous element on the anchor's silver jewelry, so it must be related to the old god.

related."

As she said this, she cut and shuffled the cards again, but the card Luvia chose was "Shipwreck". Just like Miss Belindel who performed the same divination in the morning, she couldn't tell what the origin of this card should be.

of.

After dinner, Shade did not rest at home, but went to the Yuewan area again. The afternoon visit was not very smooth, but at least the fat woman did not lie. The "Miss Lisa" Shade was looking for did not.

She was at home, and no one around her knew where she had gone.

But it's not that something happened to her. As a special professional, her life is quite irregular, and it's normal for her to be unable to find someone occasionally. So before the romantic candlelight dinner just now, Shade visited Prince's business partner, asking him

Miss Anne Bonny can help find "Miss Lisa".

I thought that if there was no news at night, I would find someone tomorrow, but I didn’t expect that Miss Anne Bonny’s information was so well-informed. When Shade saw her at seven o’clock in the evening, she had already found someone:

"If there are no guests for her to go to a fixed place at night, she usually hangs out at the Goosefoot Hotel or the Venus Hotel. I haven't found out her real name, I only know that 'Lisa' is the pseudonym she uses to the outside world. She was in the sixteenth century

I came to Yuewan City alone when I was 20 years old and haven't left since then, which happened to be ten years ago."

Although the Goosefoot Hotel where "Miss Lisa" is staying tonight is also a hotel in the lower city, it is in much better condition than the Spider Hotel next to the autopsy room. Professionals like "Miss Lisa" hang out there at night to attract customers, and

Hotels that provide working spaces will require them not to harass ordinary guests, and they will also take a commission.

This time Shade was lucky. When he arrived at the hotel located on the east side of Herring Street and on the east bank of the Taton River, Miss Lisa happened to be sitting at a table by the wall on the first floor.

Seeing that the young northern man pointed out that he was looking for her, the makeup-smeared "comrades" around her laughed and joked that her charm was not as good as before.

But Shade did not stay here. Instead, he paid the money first and then invited the tawny-haired woman to take a walk by the river.

She was also smeared with makeup. Although this summer night was much colder than in previous years, her clothes were still thin. Before leaving the hotel, she borrowed a coat and put it on her body. When the two of them stood under the gas lamp by the river,

When looking towards Herring Street on the west side of the river in the night fog, the woman wearing lipstick spoke;

"You didn't come to me for that kind of thing, right?"

The brown coat was draped over his shoulders, and his arms were folded together, seemingly questioning Shade, but Shade could tell that this was a gesture of self-protection.

"Why do you feel like I didn't come to you for that kind of thing? Maybe it's a long night, and I also want to find some fun for myself."

Shade asked pretending to be frivolous, and the latter raised his eyebrows:

"Now I squat down, if you dare to take off your belt, I won't ask anything."

Shade immediately took a step back. Miss Lisa's big eyes highlighted by eyeshadow stared at him, even examining him. She was trying to protect herself with this look:

"I have met many men, and you are different from them. Even if a man like you wants to have fun, he should appear in the bedrooms of ladies with skin as white as sheep, or in the bedrooms of those young, beautiful, bold and enchanting women.

The boudoir of a young aristocratic girl. Although I know some people have unique hobbies, you definitely don’t look like that kind of person. You are very simple.”

It seems that Iluna has also received this evaluation. If it was a year ago when he first came to this world, this adjective would have been very suitable for Shade. But within a year, he was turned on by the girls around him, and he also learned "Pink"

The technology of "Book" has long been unable to bear this word.

Clouds obscured the moonlight, and insects kept hitting the lampshade of the gas street lamp. A loud noise came from the distance, and soon the city returned to calm. Shade was unwilling to stay on this meaningless topic, so he avoided the other party's words:

"Okay, okay, let's get down to business. Miss Lisa, right? Last week you went to Crowley's Steam Bath at 18 Greve Street in the north of the city. I want to know what happened that night. Who went with you?

Where are the others now?"

Before Shade could finish his words, the woman in the coat frowned and took a step back:

"Sorry, I don't know anything."

These words were quite decisive and did not give Xia De any chance to negotiate the price:

"I'll pay you back the money you just gave me later. Don't come to me anymore. I don't have the answer you want."

As she was about to walk back, Shade hurriedly tried to stop her. But at this moment, on the originally empty street at night, a figure wearing a black windbreaker walked out of the alley:

"How can you be so rude to a lady?"

When Shade turned around to look, the seven-ring life ring behind the opponent had been revealed. Miss Lisa had obviously never seen such a scene before. After shouting in surprise, she turned around and was about to run quickly on her high heels, but

After the seven-ring warlock let out a "hum", he fainted and fell to the ground.

"Is it polite for you to treat a lady like this?"

Shade asked, standing in front of the woman lying on the ground, facing the strange ring warlock on the empty street:

"Also, where are you from?"

Looking at the opponent's life ring, there are two core spirit runes like Shade's, namely Enlightenment-[Monster] and Enlightenment-[Scale]. As for summoning the life ring at once, it only shows that the other party is a little too cautious, generally

The process should be to fight and test first, and then call out the life ring to fight if necessary.

"Good evening, unknown sir."

The stranger took off his hat, revealing a face that Shade didn't recognize either, but the dark thing on his right cheek was quite eye-catching. It didn't look like a birthmark, it looked like metal under the gas streetlight.

Glowing color.

"Eye of Edwards."

In the blink of an eye, the thaumaturgy was activated, and the strange halo allowed Shade to see clearly that the traces were unnatural human tissue. Only when the other party got closer did Shade truly recognize that it was a piece of dragon scale.

The black dragon scales are not perfectly integrated with the man's face. If you look carefully, you will inevitably feel disgusted by the disgusting shape. This is not mental pollution caused by extraordinary power, but simple disgust, just like when eating.

I saw a piece of dried phlegm in the corner of the table where I had just put my arm.

Although the opponent kept displaying his life ring behind him, Shade had no intention of revealing his life ring for this purpose. He had never had this habit.

"I went to this woman's house and found nothing suspicious. It seems that she doesn't know anything she shouldn't know. I originally wanted to check with her for final confirmation, but I didn't expect to meet you. Are you investigating this matter?"

The stranger asked Shade, who nodded:

"Of course, otherwise why would I be here so late? Isn't it good to sleep at home with a girl in your arms? Are you from the [Dragon Cult]?"

Shade smiled:

"The problem on your face is not that big, but can your heart still hold on? Your heart is like a state-of-the-art but semi-damaged high-power steam engine installed on a small wooden boat, and this

The steam engine has also been modified. To be honest, you are still able to go on missions without trying to find a cure. I am really curious about the treatment of your sect."

The superimposed effect of "Eye of Edwards" and "Heart of Stone" allows Shade to clearly judge that the opponent's heart is abnormal. Every time the heart beats, it can provide the ring warlock in front of him with far more than seven rings.

Spirit, this is not a spirit that comes from oneself, it is equivalent to giving him another channel to restore his spirit.

But just like what Shade said, the stranger's physical strength is far less than that of the weird heart, and the heart is not suitable for him, and there are also problems with the heart itself, which in turn affects his physical fitness far below the seventh ring.

s level.

The expression of the man with scale marks on his face remained unchanged:

"I have long heard that there are many strange people in a big city like Yuewan City. I never expected that someone could actually see my problem as soon as we met. Are you also good at human body refining? Or are you an expert in medical treatment?"

As he spoke, he actually took back the life ring behind his back:

"There are no clues about this woman. You won't find anything if you continue to search. Maybe it's a good idea to go home and hold the girl to sleep."

"But now that I've started an investigation, I can't give up immediately. This is not in line with my character."

"Okay, let's give it a try."

He continued to walk towards Shade under the moonlight, his originally weak body taking steps again and again, and his muscles were holding up the loose clothes:

"Since you can see that there is something wrong with my body, why don't we have a fist fight? After that, I will pretend that I haven't seen you tonight and let you investigate. Of course, I don't think it will make sense for you to continue to investigate these things."

"You don't even know what I want to check. Is there a possibility that I don't know what your conspiracy is, but I just want to kill the dead. Well, this at least sounds interesting."

The thin moonlight penetrates the dark clouds, and the light of the gas street lamps can only illuminate a little of the scenes along the streets. The ships traveling on the river are just slight embellishments on the dark background at night, and the two people stepping on each other

As the man walked toward the other party on the stone pavement, no one could hear the sound of his boots hitting the ground.
