The Whispering Verses Chapter 949: The stolen security company


"Dorothy, do you know about the angelic relic [The Evil Mirror of Burgundy]?"

Moving the wooden box to the basement downstairs, when Shade returned to the second floor with the cat in his arms, the blond girl was humming in an 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 the mirror, you will immediately be possessed by the powerful evil thing in the mirror. Even the magicians with high level and below will not be immune. Moreover, the process takes place in an instant, and there is no possibility of resistance. That mirror is very dangerous. The evil object in the mirror 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 it was destroyed by the Three Kingdoms more than 300 years ago. The university has teamed up to contain it, and it’s now in St. Byrons.”

Dorothy asked curiously, wiped her hands with a towel, and finally brought little Mia's goat milk to Shad's side. Seeing that Dorothy had made breakfast, little Mia did not dodge Dorothy's outstretched hand this time.

"Nothing."

Shad helped Dorothy pull out the wooden chair next to her 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, in addition to butter, hot milk and bacon. But Dorothy only had a piece of bread, a glass of milk, and half a tomato in front of her, which was only a little more than Mia's breakfast.

The blonde girl sat down elegantly:

"Even a sorceress has to stay 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 is Sunday, Shade has no intention of being idle. He planned to go to Iluna soon and ask her to help find information about the Order of the Old God [The Uncertain Wise Man]. After hearing that Shad planned to take little Mia to the city for a visit, Dorothy no longer planned to stay at No. 6 Saint Teresa Square.

However, she plans 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 will send the burning wood before next Wednesday... ..Will you use the fireplace?"

Dorothy asked at the dinner table. Shade put down the newspaper in his hand. He was reading the third page just now. The news about Princess Margaret's visit to the Ministry of Administrative Affairs of the Kingdom. The one with his back facing this page was the Kingdom. News that the famous wrestler "Bull Durut" won a match in Tobesk:

"Throw the wood in and light it."

I thought about it and 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 exhaust smoke?"

"Well..."

Dorothy patted her forehead:

"After Leziya has someone send you burning wood, I will teach you how to use the fireplace. It's actually very simple. When I was a child, 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 means I have not left home. In the past, the most impressive memory was every winter.”

"You can come to my place when there is a blizzard. If there is another red butterfly day, call Lesia."

Xia De understood the hint from the writer, and 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 Blackstone Security Company, and it was exactly nine o'clock when he arrived on Swanberg Street where Blackstone Security Company was located. As the weather got colder and colder, the scenery on the street also changed with the seasons. Shade, who was holding the cat, looked at the clothes of the pedestrians at the street entrance for a few times before walking into the inconspicuous gray small building. building.

Theoretically, Blackstone Security Company is open around the clock. This is not only the base of Iluna's team, but it also houses some relics they use. But for ordinary people, the opening hours here are nine o'clock in the morning, so when Shade pushed the door open, he believed that he was the first customer today.

At the reception desk on the first floor, a plump middle-aged woman with brown curly hair was wearing a red sweater in front of a magazine. Next to the yarn basket, a lying white cat was pushing the yarn ball back and forth with its paws. The team leader, Mr. Robinson, the nominal supervisor of the security company, stood in front of the reception desk and looked at the registration booklet.

They all looked towards the door when they heard the sound of the door being opened. The white cat pushing the yarn ball flinched, as if he was a little afraid of the little Mia being held. Because Sha De had been here more than once, the middle-aged captain of the Seventh Ring recognized Sha De:

"Detective Hamilton, do you have anything to entrust so early?"

He asked kindly, closed the registration book quietly, and clipped the page he just saw with a pen.

"Good morning, is Miss Bayas here?"

Xia De asked, his apparent identity is Iluna’s friend, and 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 were talking in the reception room on the first floor. The second floor of this three-story building was the area for receiving clients. Only team members were allowed to enter on the third floor. Shade had never entered before.

"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 tampered with. The missing relic It’s a Keeper-level (Level 3) [Mandrake Snake Nest Vial]. The captain will probably be punished a lot, 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 formal work. Unless we can find the lost items, our team's evaluation results this year will probably be at the bottom."

"It is so bold that it dares to steal from you?"

Shad 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 at five o'clock last night I came here as a client and sneaked to the third floor while no one was paying attention."

Looking at Iluna’s frowning 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 windbreaker 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 peeping tom. We have investigated the address. Although the address exists, the other party is just an ordinary person, and he just lost something a few days ago. There is reason to suspect that he stole it. ”

Eluna gritted her teeth and said:

"Obviously Tobesk City 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 relieved. She was also worried that Shade would not need her "Sunshine Gun" after he learned the [Thunder Spear].

Shad can understand that the Blackstone Security Company was stolen. After all, Luvia also said that all kinds of strange things will 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 check some things at the church."

Shad handed the written investigation content to Iluna, and Iluna took a look:

"The Order of the Old Gods... No problem. It just so happens that the **** you want to investigate is somewhat related to the trial of Vinals. Even if I write to the Holy See to look for information, it won't cause any trouble. People doubt it."

Eluna folded the letter and put it away and reminded:

"Xia De, I think you should also be prepared to guard against theft. Be careful of losing things like us."

"Go to No. 6 Saint Teresa Square to steal something?"

Xia De thought for a moment about the valuables 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?"

Eluna 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 relic has no history of being contained, and we only have a few information that may not be accurate."

Xia De 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 Gothe."

"Miss Gothe?"

Eluna 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 have such a cute cat, but no other cat can compare to your cat."

Hearing that little Mia was praised, Shade 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 as "her" chuckled:

"May Mr. Dawn bless me, hope that Miss Mia Sang-Gold's illness will get better soon, that the declining family will be prosperous again, and 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."

Eluna counted on her fingers and listed:

"The church confirmed the news. As the rumors of the Chosen One and the Psalms intensified, the fourth Chosen One attracted more ring magicians than the one in Midhill Castle. In addition to the confirmed Truth Society In addition, followers of the evil **** [Mr. Doom], the illegal organization [Blood Therapy Club], the cult sect [Ten Thousands of Unity Guild] and the neutral organization [Jade Alchemy Association] have all been confirmed to be present in the local area. , there is no 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-risk 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 candidate."

"No no."

Eluna 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."
