This was not the first time "she" had talked about this kind of proposal in Shade's ears. Although Shade did not deny that he was tempted, he immediately objected:
"How could I be this kind of person?"
Although he said this, his eyes still looked at the bright red lipstick mark with a smile. The mark was very clear. He could simply imagine Miss Feliana sitting at the table and spending time looking at the small mirror to carefully re-read it.
I put on lipstick and then printed the mark on the letter paper.
[A very clever method, more effective than any words.]
"She" continued to smile lightly, Shade held the letter and read it for a while before opening another letter from Fiona.
The letter from the red dragon girl was much thicker, with five pages of letter paper densely written with her care and longing for Shade. This also brought a sense of imagery, but this time it was in front of the desk at night, Feiou
With tears in her eyes, Na took a pen and wrote her thoughts under the desk lamp.
She used the first four pages of the five-page paper and the first two lines of the last page, and the remainder of the last page was not wasted, which was written in Miss Wilder's handwriting.
Obviously, the Green Dragon girl's status in the academy was not enough for her to ask Miss Olanold to bring a letter, so she could only use the remaining part of Fiona's letter paper.
Miss Wilder's letters were written in smaller letters. Compared with Fiona's strong longing, the Green Dragon girl was mainly concerned about Shade's life and asked Shade not to forget to drink afternoon tea often.
【She is reminding you.】
"Yes."
Shade read the letter written by the two people several times before carefully putting it back into the envelope. Of course, Miss Feliana's letter was also carefully put away.
He plans to go back home now. On the one hand, during breakfast, Lesia said that the maids received a letter from the Eastern Town at No. 6, Saint Teresa Square. On the other hand, he wants to keep these two letters well.
Even if one day he really lets all the ancient witches come to this era, these two letters will be the best collection for him.
Due to the first snowfall on Sunday, the temperature in Vista City dropped quickly, but Tobesk, which had not yet received this winter's snowflakes, still looked the same. When Shade walked down from the third floor with the cat, he found that there were only a few exceptions in the living room.
In addition to the maids who were doing their daily cleaning work, Lesia was also there.
Her Royal Highness the Princess was sitting in the rocking chair in front of the fireplace holding a book. It seemed to be "Hamilton Detective Stories (Volume 3)" in Carson's language. The detective novel originally published in the Northland did not give each book
Names were given, but when it came time to translate them into Kasenric, Dorothy gave each volume another name.
Although the third volume is also a stack of single detective stories, it implicitly explores the mystery of the detective's best friend, the female reporter, so the third volume is also called "Phantom of the Royal Family".
Of course, Dorothy would not let her incarnation in the book have the identity of a royal illegitimate child. She just wanted to use the mystery of the female reporter's life experience to lead to the princess's case, and then let the detective participate in the kingdom's major case, but
That's the main plot of Book 4.
"Xia De~"
The red-haired princess put down her book and stood up to give Shade a hug, so the maids consciously withdrew from the living room temporarily:
"It's been such a long time no see."
"How do I remember that we were chatting in the corridor of the hotel three minutes ago?"
"That's Dorothy, not me."
She let go of Shade and patted her chest:
"I miss you very much too. Now that you have given all the love you gave to us two to Dorothy alone, of course I have my objections."
Although there are some problems with this statement, Shade is not unable to understand it.
He then kissed Lesia gently on the lips, but after the kiss, Lesia pushed him away with a smile:
"Well, I feel your enthusiasm, my knight. But don't think of me as that kind of girl. I just want to see you to prevent you from only remembering Dorothy's tenderness but forgetting my face. I
Let's go now, there are still some things to deal with in Yodel Palace.
By the way, things in Vista City are almost over, right? Agelina has not appeared in public for so long, and now there are rumors outside that she is going to die of illness."
In fact, the little princess was still excitedly talking to Emilia about the stories of the Fifth Age when Shade left the hotel.
"It's almost over. Now that Emilia has returned, the final battle in the Vista Woodland will happen this week or next week."
So Her Royal Highness the Princess hugged Shade again, and then said goodbye reluctantly:
"I'm always ready to go to Vista Grove to help. Also, I'll let you go today, but when things over there are over, you have to stay with me."
"Yes, yes, my princess."
As she spoke, she made a gesture of taking off her hat with her right hand. Lecia walked back and kissed Shade on the face, and then asked Shade to send her downstairs.
He dropped by the basement to put down the letters from Miss Feliana and Fiona, and after grabbing another handful of cat food for little Mia, he sat down on the sofa in the living room on the second floor and checked the letter from Miss Gold.
As usual, the letter contained little Mia's monthly "maintenance payment" of 10 pounds, but even if this cat's tastes have become more sophisticated recently, and no matter how high the prices in Tobesk are, its monthly consumption is far less than 10 pounds.
pound.
Thinking about it this way, even if the stranger didn't discover Old John's pawn shop last summer and get his first pot of gold through the cane, in fact, as long as he gets in touch with Miss Gothe, he will not die of hunger at all.
She shook her head vigorously to get rid of all the messy thoughts. She opened the letter, which started with the usual greetings and greetings. Miss Gothe's handwriting was very recognizable, and the cursive letters made it clear at a glance that she had an extraordinary background.
This is already the third month (inclusive) since her visit to Tobesk in the summer. Now that she has returned to her hometown town, Miss Gold is still arranging her staff to clean up the legacy left by her ancestors.
The efforts of more than a year have been fruitful. Although she experienced her own serious illness, the crisis of the town and the regional plague, the property gained during this period was enough for her to summon stronger mercenaries to explore the deeper parts of the town——
She said that she had recently discovered from books that there seemed to be secret passages and deep spaces beneath her ancestral home, and she planned to try to dig them out after taking some time.
In addition to her own recent situation, Miss Gold also stated in the letter that she has determined to visit Tobesk again around the end of this year, and she hopes to see Detective Shade Hamilton in person this time.
To thank him for his love and care for Mia.
"It's already November, the end of the year"
Although he didn’t know if he would really be able to see the lady this time, Shade still wanted to prepare a gift for her at the end of the year. But that was all for later, and the matter in Vista Woodland was imminent.
.
The third meeting he made with the "Mask Man" was on Tuesday, so he had to use the next two days to investigate everything. He didn't have time to have a fourth meeting. The out-of-control Doomsday Rift had already revealed the time.
I won't continue to wait for him.
But before starting today's work, Shade, who returned to the Vista Woodland from home, did not forget to visit the elf's tree house to pick out a new week's gifts.
Because I talked with Emilia for a long time after breakfast and then went home for a walk, it was already close to eleven o'clock in the morning when I arrived at the tree house.
Unfortunately, the elf girl is not at home now. Shade originally wanted to wait for her return in the tree house with little Mia, but he soon saw someone running around in the snow on the second floor platform.
Two young blue-feathered chocobos - it was easy to spot them in the snow. Then Shade suppressed the dissatisfied little Mia, touched the little heads of the little chocobos, and let them lead him in the snow.
An elf was found in the woods.
The elf girl didn't go too far. When the chocobos took Shade to find her, she was practicing archery in a clearing in the forest. But of course the arrows she used were not those made of World Tree material, but she made them herself.
wooden arrows, even the arrowheads are made of wood.
The blond elf's expression was very focused, and she did not turn around even when she heard Shade's footsteps. After holding her breath and concentrating, she released her fingers. After a buzzing vibration, the wooden arrow pierced the sign she had erected on the other side of the open space.
The target was still humming and vibrating after being nailed deeply into the tree trunk.
The trembling of the tree trunk caused the snowflakes on the branches to fall one after another. The elf retracted his long bow and turned to look at Shade. The two small chocobos had already rolled into a ball in the snow.
"You're practicing archery? Does this have anything to do with those antique arrows?"
"Shadow, don't relate everything you see to the future. This is just a daily practice. Are you here to get this week's gift?"
"Let's see you too. Emilia came back yesterday afternoon. Some tree roots helped us temporarily prevent the expansion of the Doomsday Crack. What do you think of these things?"
The elf picked up his silver cotton cloak from the snow, shook it twice and put it on his body:
"I'll watch from inside my treehouse."
The gifts in the past two weeks have not impressed Shade very much. He came here this week without high hopes. The most important thing is to visit the elf girl who lives alone here.
So when he reached into the gift box, what he was thinking about was whether there was any deeper reason why Amelia refused to move away from here. And when he thought that he was thinking too much,
His hand had already touched the cold coin in the empty box.
The coin was lying at the bottom of the [God's Gift Box], so Shade almost thought there was nothing. When he picked it up, he was sure that it was definitely not any currency being used now, and when it came out of the box
When the body showed its own elements, Shade knew that he had finally had good luck again.
