"Dorothy, do you know about the angelic relic [The Evil Mirror of Burgundy]?"
After moving the wooden box to the basement downstairs, and when Shade returned to the second floor with the cat in his arms, the blonde girl was humming in her apron and bringing the dinner plate to the dining table in a good mood:
"Of course I know. It is rumored that if you shine that mirror, you will be possessed by the powerful evil thing in the mirror immediately. Ring warlocks below the high level will not be immune, and the process takes place in an instant, and there is no possibility of resistance. That mirror
It is very dangerous. The mirror evil object is immortal and can only return to the mirror after the container is destroyed. During the period when it was not contained, this relic caused countless tragedies. I remember that more than 300 years ago in the Sixth Age, it was jointly contained by the three major colleges.
, now at St. Byrons. Why did you mention this?"
Dorothy asked curiously, wiped her hands with a towel, and finally brought little Mia's goat's milk to Shade. Seeing that Dorothy had made breakfast, little Mia did not dodge Dorothy's hand this time.
Come by hand.
"nothing."
Shade helped Dorothy pull out the wooden chair next to him and sighed softly:
"I just didn't expect that the research of the thirteen-ring warlocks is so unimaginable... Do you eat so little?"
On the plate in front of Shade were two slices of soft white bread, two fried eggs, half a tomato, butter, hot milk and bacon. But in front of Dorothy there was only one slice of bread, a glass of milk and half a tomato.
tomatoes, only a few more than Mia's breakfast.
The blonde girl sat down elegantly:
"Even a sorceress has to keep in shape. I don't want Lesia to say that I'm fatter than her when she uses my body. Besides, more than food, what I need to replenish is...water."
She blinked at Shade with a blush on her face, then put one arm around his neck and kissed him passionately.
Although it was Sunday, Shade did not intend to be idle. He planned to go to Iluna soon and ask her to help find information about the cult of the old god [The Uncertain Wise Man]. After hearing that Shade planned to take Xiaomi
After Ya's visit to the city, Dorothy no longer planned to stay at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square.
However, she planned to take away Professor Manning's letters and help Shade sort out all the letters today:
"Also, unified heating will start in the St. Teresa Square neighborhood next Monday. What Lesia means is that since the waterproofing of the basement has been completed, someone should send the burning wood over before next Wednesday... You
Will you use the fireplace?”
Dorothy asked at the dinner table. Shade put down the newspaper in his hand. He was reading page three just now. The news about Princess Margaret's visit to the Ministry of Administrative Affairs of the Kingdom. Facing this page was the famous wrestling in the kingdom.
News about the win of a race in Torbesk by the hand "Bullo Durut":
"Throw the wood in and light it."
After thinking for a while, he added:
"Keep an eye on little Mia and don't let her get close to the fire."
"Do you know how to control a fire and use a chimney to vent smoke?"
"Um......"
Dorothy patted her forehead:
"After Lecia has someone send you the burning wood, I will teach you how to use the fireplace. It's actually very simple. When I was a child at home, I liked to bake things in the fireplace at home."
She turned her head and looked at the fireplace in the living room:
"The weather is not too cold now. When there is a snowstorm at night, I turn off the gas lights at home, sit on the carpet in front of the fireplace with my family, play games or read together in the light of the fireplace. That was what I did every year before I left home.
The most profound memory of winter.”
"You can come to my place when there is a snowstorm. If there is another red butterfly day, call Lesia."
Shade understood Miss Writer's hint. It was indeed a very beautiful scene.
After breakfast, Dorothy helped Shade wash the plates and cups, and then left here with the letters. Shade calculated the working hours of the Blackstone Security Company, and it happened to be nine when he arrived at the Neuschwanstein Street where the Blackstone Security Company was located.
As the weather gets colder and colder, the scenery on the street also changes with the seasons. Shade, holding the cat, looked at the clothes of the pedestrians at the street entrance for a few times, and then walked into the inconspicuous building.
Gray small building.
Theoretically, Blackstone Security Company is open all day long. This is not only the base of Iluna's team, but also houses some relics they use. But for ordinary people, the business hours here are at nine o'clock in the morning, so
When Shade pushed the door open, he believed he was the first guest today.
At the reception desk on the first floor, a plump middle-aged woman with brown curly hair was tying a red sweater in front of a magazine. Next to the wool basket, a lying white cat was pushing the wool ball back and forth with its paws. The team leader also
Mr. Robinson, the nominal director of the security company, was standing in front of the reception desk, looking at the registration manual.
They all looked towards the door when they heard the sound of the door being pushed. The white cat pushing the yarn ball flinched and seemed to be a little afraid of the little Mia being held. Because Shade had been here more than once, the middle-aged captain of the seventh ring recognized
Out of Shad:
"Detective Hamilton, do you have anything to entrust so early?"
He asked kindly, closed the registration book calmly, and clipped the page he just saw with his pen.
"Good morning, is Miss Bayas here?"
Shade asked. His apparent identity was that of Iluna's friend. He got acquainted with Iluna because of the investigation incident:
"I want to return the book I borrowed from her last time. In addition, I also want to talk to her about the theft of Professor Manning that she asked me to help investigate."
Mr. Robinson nodded:
"Beas is on the second floor. Please wait a moment and I'll ask her to come down."
Of course Iluna was very happy about Shade's visit. The two talked in the reception room on the first floor. The second floor of this three-story building is the area for receiving clients. Only team members are allowed to enter on the third floor. Shade also
Never entered.
"We've had a burglary here."
As soon as the door was closed, Iluna said to Shade:
"I received a notice at six o'clock this morning. When I was counting the relics in the warehouse as usual this morning, I found that one piece was missing. The captain summoned the team members to conduct an investigation. It was initially determined that the relic [Jack Thief] had been manipulated. The missing relic was a secret.
For the human-level (Level 3) [Mandrake Snake Nest Vial], the captain will probably be punished severely, and all of us will lose our year-end bonuses at the end of this year."
When she mentioned this, her tone suddenly dropped:
"I didn't expect that I wouldn't get the year-end bonus in my first year of official work. Unless we can find the lost items, our team's evaluation results this year will probably be at the bottom."
"It's so bold that it dares to steal from you?"
Shade was shocked and sat on the sofa with Mia in his arms. He could understand Iluna's mood. This was a truly unparalleled disaster.
"Theoretically, it can steal anywhere except churches."
Iluna sat next to him with a frustrated look:
"Theft of a relic is a big deal, especially if it is stolen by another relic. It's really unlucky. I was just writing a confession and an accident report. Judging from the current clues, [Jack Thief] disguised himself as a commission at five o'clock last night
People came here and sneaked to the third floor while no one was paying attention."
Judging from Iluna's sad face, she should have been here at five o'clock last night.
"Have you seen what it looks like?"
"An ordinary middle-aged man, wearing a black trench coat and a wide-brimmed black rope hat. He claimed to live in the North District of Tobesk and asked us to investigate his neighbor. He suspected that his neighbor was a voyeur. We have already investigated
Although the address exists, the other person is just an ordinary person, and he just lost something a few days ago, so there is reason to suspect that he stole it."
Iluna gritted her teeth and said:
"Obviously the city of Tobesk is so big, even if I tend to steal ring warlocks, I didn't expect that it would steal it from us. If I really encounter it, I must let it know how powerful the sunshine gun is!"
She handed Shade the brooch that could release the "Sunshine Gun", and Shade put it into his pocket naturally. This made Iluna breathe a sigh of relief. She was also worried that Shade would learn the "Thunder Gun" on his own.
There is no need for her "sunshine gun" anymore,
Shade could understand the theft of the Blackstone Security Company. After all, Luvia also said that all kinds of strange things would spontaneously happen around the chosen ones.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Shade, what are you doing here?"
"If you have time, you can help me go to the church to check some things."
Shade handed the written investigation contents to Iluna, and Iluna took a look:
"The Order of the Old Gods... no problem. It just so happens that the god you want to investigate is somewhat related to the trials of Vinals. I can write to the Holy See to find information without arousing suspicion.
"
Iluna folded the letter and put it away and reminded:
"Xia De, I think you should also be prepared to prevent theft. Be careful of losing things like us."
"Going to No. 6 Saint Teresa Square to steal something?"
Shade thought for a moment about the valuable items in his home, then touched little Mia's back with his right hand. He was suddenly startled and asked immediately:
"Will that relic steal living things?"
Iluna understood what he meant and comforted softly:
"At least so far, there is no precedent for the other party stealing pets. The church now also suspects that the other party is the 'invisible person' mentioned in Vinals' trial, so it is also investigating this relic, but this
This relic has no history of being contained, and we only have a few information that may not be accurate."
Shade thought for a while:
"When I go out recently, I'd better take little Mia with me. If this cat is really stolen, I don't know how to explain it to its owner, Miss God."
"Miss Gold?"
Iluna also heard Shade talk about that lady:
"Speaking of which, you can find out what breed little Mia belongs to and whether she has any siblings. I also want to raise such a cute cat, but no other cat can compare to your cat."
Hearing that little Mia was praised, Xia De was in a good mood:
"No problem. When Miss Gothe writes a letter next month, I will ask you a question in my reply. But judging from the color, Mia is probably just a worthless local cat."
He drew the Holy Emblem on his chest very sincerely, and said with "her" chuckle:
"May Mr. Dawn bless you. I hope that Miss Mia Sang-Gold's illness will get better soon. I hope that the declining family will be prosperous again. I hope that the town will get rid of those weird things as soon as possible."
"I hope the lady can be safe, but the matter in Tobesk will not be solved as easily as the matter in a remote town."
Iluna counted on her fingers:
"The church has confirmed the news. As the rumors about the Chosen One and the Psalms intensify, the fourth Chosen One has attracted more ring magicians than the one in Fort Midhill. In addition to the confirmed Truth Society, the Evil God
The followers of [Mr. Doom], the illegal organization [Blood Therapy Club], the cult sect [Ten Thousands of Unity Association] and the neutral organization [Jade Alchemy Association] have all been confirmed to have appeared in the local area. Apart from this, there have not been any reports yet
There is information about the appearance of thirteen-ring warlocks outside the church, but clear information points out that the [Truth Society] is preparing to use a high-danger level relic to complete Venus's trial."
She looked at Shade:
"By the way, the Miss Paavo you met is the vice-president of the Truth Society. Yes, she does only have six rings, but the Truth Society is not an organization that uses strength to determine status."
"The Truth Society directly sent a vice-president this time? It seems that they really attach great importance to the fourth chosen one."
"no no."
Iluna shook her head:
"In fact, we all believe that the purpose of the organizations listed above coming to this city is not for the chosen ones, but for the trial of the secret keepers."
She sighed softly:
"For most people, the epic is too far away, and the chosen one is too far away, but the chance for the secret keeper to realize his wish is right in front of him."
