Her Royal Highness tasted some and smiled slightly because of the sweetness:
"Cotton candy?"
"To turn food into candy, the color and shape must be similar. It is impossible for me to turn a piece of bread into sugar water. I remember that there should be similar marshmallows now, right?"
The well-informed princess in the palace nodded:
"Being egg whites and syrup into foam can be made into cotton-like candy, but it won't be as good as yours in appearance or taste."
"This can actually be done now, but it requires machines."
He briefly explained how to make marshmallows. Of course, outsiders’ knowledge was also very rough. Lesia listened carefully, and after Shade finished speaking, she sighed:
"You always have all kinds of novel ideas, but they are all very good. For example, Miss Sylvia's inventions."
Shade's face turned red and he coughed:
"This marshmallow tastes good, doesn't it? If you like it, I can conjure up more candies you haven't eaten before."
As he said that, Shade did not forget to stop the puzzle lock, otherwise it would be very troublesome to clean up the candy that fell all over the floor. He put Xiao Mia on the table again, and gave a small portion of the bowl of marshmallows to the cat.
"It's breakfast time now, and I'm not a kid who likes sweets. What's more, I have to help Dorothy stay in shape."
Lecia said, looking at the bowl of candy again:
"The object of the spell is something you think is food? If it is not forcibly changing the cognition, it may cause the ring warlock to lose control. This ability has more uses."
Lesia smiled and said:
"And your compound mystery lock has become more like a fairy tale. When the little match seller walked barefoot on the street at night, she discovered that the snowflakes falling in the sky were actually candies... What if
If this is really the case, the fairy tale of "Match Girl" is no longer a tragedy."
Because I had to go to Granny Natalie at the Guiding Light Monastery this morning to find out if the ring warlock who wanted to purchase "Orichalcum" was willing to meet, so I had breakfast and entrusted Mia to Dorothy.
Shade then set off for the Green Lake area.
After carefully escaping from the underground warehouse of the Green Lake Hotel, Shade still left the hotel through the back door of the kitchen.
Yesterday's child was still living in the trash can next to the door. Shade did not disturb him, but put a few coins next to the trash can. He was not worried that others would take them away. No one would come here at all.
The journey was not far. Shade walked to the Kingfisher Tailor Shop and met Granny Natalie through the secret passage of the dressing room in the corner. This old woman had eleven to twelve rings of power, which fit Shade’s direction.
Impressions of the Hermitage of Light.
"good morning."
After a brief exchange of greetings, Granny Natalie gave Shad a note:
"The other party is willing to see you, but she can only reveal a few limited pieces of information about the Edwards family, and it is impossible to tell you everything."
"The Edwards family is a family of ordinary people. Doesn't her appearance indicate that the Edwards have a deeper secret?"
Shade said with a smile, looking at the note, it was the address of Green Lake City:
"First floor of Green Lake Hotel, ten thirty this morning?"
It was 9:57 in the morning, half an hour was enough for Shade to walk back:
"Mother-in-law, do you have any relics or potions here that can turn people into animals in a short time... Forget the relics, potions are the best."
The side effects of using relics to transform the body must be very serious, which is also common sense among ring warlocks.
"That kind of magic potion is not easy to find. If you are willing to wait, I can contact my old friends, but it will take at least a month or two to get a reply."
The old man behind the counter said, and Shade nodded:
"Forget it, I want to get the finished product this week."
"Making that level of potion is very time-consuming, so you can only look for potions that have already been prepared. This is not easy, but if you have access to the three major colleges, you can try to go to the college to find it. After all, for
For teaching, Potions professors will stock up on finished potions to facilitate classroom teaching."
This actually gave Xia De new ideas.
When Shade was about to leave, Granny Natalie stopped him again and warned him:
"The buyer of Orichalcum has some minor problems with her character. If you find that she is indifferent and slightly hostile to you, please don't worry about it. My old friend's character has always been like this."
She hesitated for a moment, thinking that Mr. Edmond introduced Shade:
"She is a high-level warlock. There was a time when she had a problem... and almost lost control. Her mental state has only gotten better in recent years, so no matter what she says, don't mind it too much. This deal is made by
I guarantee there will be no problem."
"This kind of high-level warlock is very dangerous."
Shade sighed, then frowned slightly, associating the characteristics Granny Natalie mentioned with a certain type of person he knew.
"Probably, it's not such a coincidence, right?"
He held his chest, but he always had the "Witch Detection Badge" on him.
Mother-in-law Natalie said that the buyer had made a reservation on the first floor with the owner of the "Green Lake Hotel" in advance, so after Shade returned to the hotel at 10:18 that morning, he went directly to the counter to inquire about the location.
matter.
However, unfortunately, the hotel owner, Mr. Soren Green, was not there. What Shade saw behind the counter was a woman about the same age as Mr. Green, with the same brown hair.
After Shade introduced his identity, the woman smiled and said:
"Mr. Watson, you didn't come back last night. We were worried that you might have gotten lost in this strange city."
"I stayed in Mikaela Blast Furnace City last night. I was delayed for a while while crossing the border. When I wanted to come back after visiting the city, it was too late."
Shade said, and the woman helped to search Mr. Soren Green's notebook:
"I found it. The lady who made an appointment with you asked you to wait for her at the table under the oil painting of Green Lake against the wall. If she doesn't arrive at 10:30 in the morning, she won't be late for more than ten minutes at most."
"Thank you, Mrs. Green."
Shade thought the woman in front of him was Mr. Green's wife. After all, the hotel maids were very respectful to her, and she also had the key to the drawer under the counter. But this time, he guessed wrong.
"Mr. Watson, you may have misunderstood. I am not my brother's wife. I am Helena Green, Solon Green's twin sister. My brother is already married. If Sarah hears it, he will joke again.
Urging me to get married sooner."
Shade was a little embarrassed:
"I'm so sorry, I thought...but you look nothing like Mr. Green."
"After all, we are a boy and a girl. We have never looked alike since we were young."
Shade chatted with Ms. Helena Green for a few more words, then ordered a cup of hot tea, and then came to sit under the oil painting of Green Lake.
It is Wednesday morning, and there are not many people in the hotel. The newspaper has a lot of news about the upcoming negotiations in the region, which is annoying. Shade just flipped through it, then sat at the table boredly and looked at the door of the hotel.
Wondering what the sorceress looked like.
"Grandma Natalie said that the other party is her good friend for many years, so the lady must be quite old... but the way to maintain youth is not difficult to find, so the other party may also look very young.
young."
The time soon came to 10:30 in the morning, and there was still no one opposite Shade, who was holding a tea cup. The lady was late, but not too late. Two minutes later, the door of the Green Lake Hotel was pushed from the outside.
Opening the door, a woman with light brown shawl hair burst into the room along with the thin sunlight.
She looked about twenty-one or twelve years old. She was wearing a high-necked dark purple silk dress with the hemline reaching below her ankles. She was tall and her coat was high-waisted, making her waist look very slender. Her shoes were low-heeled because of the hem of the skirt.
The specific appearance of the reason cannot be seen, but they should be black buckled leather shoes. As for the top of his head, he is wearing a wide-brimmed hat with embroidered lace decorations on the hat.
Solemn and conservative, this is the dressing style of middle-class women in this era. On the contrary, at the banquets of nobles, the matching of formal skirts is sometimes more bold.
Her face was very delicate, but with a very cold expression. You didn't need to think about it to know that what you saw at this time was the disguised appearance of this lady. After entering the door, the sorceress pursed her lips and looked directly towards Shade.
, Tong Kong shrank and was startled for a moment, then blinked, and walked over directly. As she got closer, Shade also knew that the other party should be at the 11th or 12th ring, and she was on the same level as Granny Natalie.
near.
"Mr. Watson?"
After sitting down, the woman asked softly in Kasenlik. It was not a local accent, but it sounded very nice. But her tone and expression were as cold as if there was something dirty on Shade's body.
"It seems that Granny Natalie is absolutely right."
Shade thought to himself, and then pressed his chest. There was no response from the Witch Detection Badge at the moment, and the other party did not ask to hold his wrist. This meant that Shade seemed to be a little too worried.
"Yes, I am John Watson, and it was Granny Natalie who gave me the time and place to meet."
Shade said that there is almost no one on the first floor of the hotel now, and there is no need to worry about ordinary people hearing their conversations.
The sorceress nodded coldly and put her gloved hands on the table. Observing her at such a close distance, this lady whose name is still unknown has a very unique temperament. Not only does she not have that indifferent expression that is difficult to contact,
It ruined her beauty and made her look even more different from ordinary women.
Shade wanted to ask the waiter to ask for a cup of tea for her, but was refused:
"I still have some things to do. I'll leave after we finish talking."
