Professor Manning has indeed traveled to many places, because Professor Manning's name can be heard in almost every city that Shade visited.
However, it is obvious that Professor Manning, who is younger than Professor Quinto, did not participate in the research on the ancient temple in Ximu Town half a century ago. Just when Shade thought that he did not need to disturb the professor this time,
Professor Quintu smiled again and said:
"Professor Manning and I have also talked about this temple in Ximu Town. Coincidentally, he has also participated in the investigation of ancient ruins similar to the ruins of this temple."
The red-haired girl poked Shade in surprise, and Shade hurriedly asked:
"Is there still such a thing? So has Professor Manning mentioned that ruins similar to this one, and where is the specific location? Has anyone written a paper to study it?"
"I'm sorry, it has been many years. How about you write to Professor Manning and ask for advice? He might still remember it."
Therefore, Shade still needs to visit Cat Tail Alley.
After bidding farewell to Professor Quinto, the red-haired girl took the initiative to take Shade's arm, and the two of them pretended to be ordinary tourists and officially started visiting the Golden Music Hall Museum.
The exhibition area about the history of this concert hall in the museum is not large. Most of the exhibits here are actually cultural relics from the development history of the city of Vesta. After Shade saw the sketch of the temple ruins, he drew the sketch in calligraphy.
In his notebook, he then sketched the route of Professor Quinto's "sleepwalking" just now.
Since the professor was attracted in the dream but could not find the target, Shade believed that the target was hidden, and the professor's patrolling route actually always revolved around the hidden target.
Therefore, when the route was drawn on the sketch of the temple, it was easy to see that Professor Quinto was generally wandering around the northeastern area of the temple ruins. And after matching this area with the real Golden Music Hall,
The general location is in the middle east of the entire "Four Leaf Clover".
That area was the backstage of the concert hall and a small number of offices. Shade and Miss Denister sneaked in to investigate, and sure enough they found nothing.
After the dragon beast from the past attacked the Golden Music Hall, the church has investigated here many times. Although Shade's perception is different from ordinary people, he cannot immediately detect secrets that even the church cannot discover.
The two of them wandered around the Golden Music Hall together for the whole afternoon, and only returned to the Accordion Hotel near evening like tourists out for a walk.
At this time, Miss Bell has woken up. Although she still looks a little depressed, she should be able to fully recover soon. However, she can't remember anything about the things she saw in Bronte's memory, not even
I remember what I said before I passed out.
"I just remember seeing the dark shadow of the big tree, and then I fainted immediately."
Miss Winslet thinks this is a good thing, indicating that the influence of evil things is not rooted in the soul, and that the soul's spontaneous forgetfulness is actually a self-protection measure.
She is a master of soul research, and since she said it was okay, then it would be okay. And when she heard about the actions of Shade and Miss Denister all afternoon, she asked with some teasing:
"So you guys just spent the whole afternoon shopping together, right?"
"That's called an investigation, and we didn't waste time."
The eighteen-year-old sorceress corrected, and Shade said:
"It's not completely fruitless. I'll go back to Tobesk and ask about Professor Manning's ruins. Maybe the ruins he encountered are related to the ruins here."
Shade did not stay for dinner, but chose to return home with the cat, and planned to visit Professor Manning after dinner.
And when he returned home, he actually found that Vanessa and Sirius were also at home. And when he heard that the duchess invited Vanessa to stay at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square today, Sunday, Shade
He immediately knew what the other party was planning.
"I didn't see that Carina had such a hobby. She likes to accompany you with other girls, right?"
The blond female opera singer asked Shade curiously, but Shade could not answer such a question.
Although it was the weekend, Luvia had to deal with matters related to the Prophet Association and could not get home in time for dinner. Carina also had to come back later, so Shade, Vanessa, and Sirius had dinner together.
eat.
During dinner, Vanessa also asked Shade about the details of her recent interactions with Miss Winslet. When she heard that the witch was even willing to turn into a unicorn for Shade to ride, the witch of the earth showed admiration for Shade.
expression:
"I always thought Flora was the kind of girl who was very stylish and elegant. Also, she used to only say that she was studying the transformation of unicorns. She probably only succeeded in the past few months and even painted oil paintings specifically.
"
Sirius just smiled on the side, probably thinking of Vanessa's own affairs.
Seeing Sirius smiling so happily, Shade mentioned Margaret again:
"You and Margaret have been separated for so long. Is there no problem with her learning as an apprentice?"
"No problem, Sylvia is by her side, and I meet her regularly in the parliament to check on her study progress."
Vanessa didn't care much about this. Apprentices didn't have to be with the teacher at all times. She thought Margaret's self-discipline was fine.
But that's not what Shad wants to talk about:
"How did I hear Margaret say, Siris, you played her some of Vanessa's memories?"
So the two blond ladies across the table turned red at the same time, and Vanessa asked first:
"Hirlis, how can you do this? This is too much!"
The young girl pursed her lips and glanced at her best friend, then said to Shade:
"Okay, I admit that I shouldn't do this. So let's do this, I still have some Vanessa initiative here."
She stressed the word.
"I will give you some of the memories that were given to me on your own initiative. However, I am worried that I have made a mistake in the memory contents. After dinner, do you want to check them together? Or wait until Luvia and Miss Carina come back.
Check, it will be faster this way."
So Vanessa didn't dare to speak.
After dinner, Vanessa entered the [Witches' Council] for a meeting, leaving only Shad and Sirius at home. The satiated cat rested sleepily on Shad's lap, although Shad planned to visit Professor Manning.
, but he and Sirius haven’t had a heart-to-heart talk for a long time:
"Vanessa really um. shared a lot of memories with you?"
The young blonde girl was sitting next to him, tilting her head and looking at him with a smile:
"What do you think? But please allow me to compliment you, Shade, you have a really good figure."
"Sirius."
He then took Sirius's hand, and the latter gave a symbolic resistance and fell into Shade's arms. After a gentle kiss, Sirius looked at him with confused eyes, and then he didn't know what happened.
The cat was carried from Shade's lap to the coffee table, and then sat directly on his body.
This made Sirius' head sit higher than Shad's. She hugged Shad's neck and took a deep breath:
"This kind of life is really wonderful. Vanessa and I are here with you. We have dinner at your house on a Sunday night when we have nothing to do. A year ago now, I could not have imagined that such a change would happen in the future. Then
At that time, I was just a silly girl who occasionally wondered where my father was."
She kissed Shade's forehead, and Shade commented:
"Your father is a great man."
"But it can't cover up the fact that he abandoned me when I was young. I don't want to talk about it now."
Looking at her beautiful eyes, Shade knew what she meant:
"But aren't you a little inconvenient now?"
The blonde girl's face turned slightly red:
"You actually know this? That's why I occasionally envy Vanessa and the others. It doesn't matter. I think you have a lot of tricks up your sleeve, right? Counting the time, it will take at least two hours for Vanessa to come back from this meeting.
"
She winked at Shade condescendingly, and first unbuttoned her shirt with some shyness, then raised her hands high and stretched behind her head, trying to gather her hair. Such an action would inevitably make her
The upper body moved closer to Shade.
"I can't compare to Miss Servit, don't compare me to her."
A somewhat worried Sirius said this, but Shade, who was gradually shrouded in shadow, immediately denied:
"Of course I won't compare you with her, but..."
"Shadow, do you really want your mouth to keep talking?"
"Oh well."
So the cat, which was put on the coffee table for no reason, was very curious about what Shade was eating.
Shade's plan to go out tonight has been abandoned, but the parliamentary meeting is still going on as usual. No one asked for leave today. The thirteen great witches and their respective apprentices gathered together, and the main agenda of the parliament was the same as last week.
Lola Winslet reports on the investigation of Vista Grove.
Too many things happened in this week. Even though the report had been prepared, the report on the Brontë family, Dead Apostles, etc. still continued for a long time.
The discovery of the suspected remains of the World Tree this morning surprised the other twelve witches. Adele Isabella even considered sending people to the Vista Woodland for support, but was immediately stopped by Flo
La Winslet refused.
Therefore, when the meeting ended and everyone left, it was already 9:30 pm.
Speaker Isabella took the lead to walk out of the fog door behind her, followed by Megan, who was handling the angelic relic with her.
Others also stood up and left with their apprentices, but Miss Winslet stopped Miss Sylvia and Vanessa, so Miss Aurora, who was about to leave, winked at Carina, who was originally
Talking to Miss Belindel about recent events in Moon Bay, he signaled to the Countess of the South Country to take the first step. She said goodbye to Granny Cassandra with a smile and sat down again.
