The Whispering Verses Chapter 1027: The Devil and the Chosen

This evening Princess Margaret's banquet was held at Canary Manor where she stayed. That manor belongs to the Cavendish royal family and is specially used to entertain foreign dignitaries. It is located in the north of Tobesk South District, close to the university district, and about 20 minutes' drive from Saint Teresa Square.

In the morning, Shade did not understand why the vice-president of the Truth Society appeared at the Third National Mechanical College. In order to prevent her from appearing again during the evening banquet, he took advantage of the time in the afternoon to go to Blackstone Security The company found Yin Luna and informed her of Miss Pavo's appearance.

Yin Luna then informed the church about the incident, so at the banquet held at Canary Manor that night, there were more ring warlocks from the church.

When Shade entered Canary Manor at 6:30 in the evening, the heat of the badge on his chest reminded him that there was definitely not only one witch appearing here tonight.

Miss Carina is actually also at Canary Manor, but she probably won’t show up at the banquet.

Although it is in the urban area, Canary Manor covers a large area. Shade has come here to "learn foreign languages" several times, so he is quite familiar with the internal situation of the manor.

Tonight's banquet was held in the banquet hall on the first floor. Although only the people who were in the lecture hall this morning were invited, in the end there were quite a few people attending the banquet for various reasons. People seemed to regard it as a diplomatic event. banquet.

Although the bomb attack is still mentioned by people, people are more concerned about how the Latin American Principality will be punished in the future. Things of such a bad nature rarely happen in peaceful times. Even Queen Diana was shot in the street in the summer, but it did not have such a big impact.

Princess Margaret made an appearance at the beginning of the banquet, and then she went somewhere unknown. Count Herpos, who was in charge of the visiting delegation, was in charge of receiving the guests.

Shad did not see Miss Pavo appear again during the banquet. He wanted to find time to go upstairs to meet Miss Carina and ask the council if they remembered the past of Miss Schultz Theresa, but he He had just taken two steps towards the stairs while holding the wine glass, when he saw Princess Margaret's personal maid walking over.

"Mr. Hamilton, did you see the man who threw the note?"

As soon as they met in the study room on the second floor, Princess Margaret asked eagerly. She desperately needed the surrender of the gray eagle, but since they met at Fort Midhill in the autumn, the gray eagle never contacted her again, and did not even collect the 1,000 pounds reward.

At this time, the mysterious ace agent appeared again, and Margaret Anjou knew that this was another opportunity.

"Oh, Your Highness, why do people always like to ask me this question?"

Xia De shook his head:

"At noon at Ridwich Field, I almost didn't even eat lunch. If Miss Carina hadn't sent someone to take me out, I probably wouldn't have been able to attend tonight's banquet. So, what on earth is going on? The thing is, I found that people paid more attention to the note than the bomb."

"I'm really sorry, detective. I'm really sorry for involving you in this matter. I can't tell you the truth of the matter, and I can't involve you in this troublesome political whirlpool."

The princess pressed her forehead with her palm rather unladylikely:

"This matter is related to the Gray Gloves and MI6. Mr. Hamilton, you should have heard of these two organizations. So, I'm sorry, I can't say too much. I can only tell you, drop that piece of paper. Tiao is an amazing person.”

Shad nodded in agreement. He had always thought that Mr. Sparrow Hamilton was quite amazing. There was no need to doubt this.

"Sorry again for bringing you into this, oh, and I also want to thank you for finding that note."

"It's nothing. I involved you in the devil's affairs, didn't you accept my apology?"

Xia De said, taking a look at the study:

"The evil spirits of the Third Age will not threaten us for much longer. Don't worry, this matter will be resolved soon. But before that, I will still come to visit you once a day."

"No problem, we are friends. From now on, you can call me by my name directly."

The princess nodded and sent Shade to the door of the study. After Shade left, she patted her cheek. She thought of Shade who had just left, and sighed in her heart. She now understood why he could win the favor of the beautiful duchess:

"Handsome, powerful, steady in doing things, no bad habits. If I didn't want to be a teacher's apprentice, I would probably like this kind of person."

Xia De on the other side returned to the first floor from the second floor. At this time, the atmosphere of the banquet was very lively. He took another wine glass, then looked up among the guests and saw Dr. Schneider, who should never be here.

"Yeah"

This often means weird things happen.

The doctor also wore a formal dress and attended the banquet. He stood at the window of the banquet hall holding a wine glass and looked at the people at the banquet with a very melancholy look. The six-ring warlock's senses are very keen. When Shade noticed him, the doctor quickly saw Shade.

The expression on the doctor's face at that moment was probably similar to Shade's.

The two people soon met at the window, both holding a glass of wine. Shade tilted his head and asked the doctor:

"Doctor, you don't want to say that the devil is at this party, do you?"

The doctor controlled his expression with a sullen face:

"Yes, isn't that why you came here?"

He asked with some surprise in his tone, and Shade was even more surprised:

"You found it, why did you come alone instead of informing me?"

"I didn't find it, I just suspected it was here."

The doctor lowered his voice and took a sip from the wine glass:

"Do you know why I haven't found it yet? It was injured more seriously than I thought and couldn't exist independently, so it was hiding in a human body. I found it on Thursday Once, it was seriously injured again, but it immediately changed into a new body very carefully."

The evil spirits and demons of the Third Age have the ability to coexist with humans. This is reflected in whether it is the demon in the demonologist's story, the "arsonist" possessing the Balrog, or the "human pus" Having come out before, this can be regarded as a "racial talent".

"I will definitely not be able to catch it tonight. It is very good at escaping. I want to put a mark on it tonight so that it will never be able to escape next time."

The doctor drank the champagne in one gulp:

"The only trouble now is that I don't know whose body it is hidden on, so I'm still looking for it."

When he was talking to Shade, his eyes were always fixed on the banquet hall.

Not even Shade can easily detect a possessed demon. When he first met Yinfan Darkness in Coldwater Port, Shade didn't notice anything strange about him until he took off his red gloves to reveal the "Devil's Mouth" on his palm.

Although Shade was wandering around carrying his badge and could detect who the devil was by relying on his abnormal reactions, this would also make the other party realize that he had been discovered, and Doctor Schneider had no time to put a mark on it.

So looking for the devil can only be done by doctors, and Shade can only wait for the doctor's good news.

So for the rest of the banquet, Shade stayed with Dr. Schneider. The doctor got the invitation from his patient and had no acquaintance at the banquet, so he and Shade acted together, listening to Shade and people talking about Rhodes cards, interesting things about the nobles, and the aftermath of this morning's incident.

By the time around nine o'clock in the evening, Shade had already gone to the Rhodes table and won three games in a row, the doctor coughed slightly.

He knew that the doctor had found his target, so he said goodbye to the baron who was playing cards with him, got up and walked towards the bathroom.

"Found it."

The doctor’s words were concise and to the point:

"This person is not a guest at the banquet. He has possessed the manor's servant. Come with me. You will restrain him for at least twenty seconds, and I can put a mark on it that will not disappear for at least a year."

Originally the doctor had to do this by himself, but now that Shade is here, it would be better to have someone help. And if the mark is placed, doctors are confident the matter will be over by next Tuesday.

Canary Manor is the residence of Princess Margaret. In theory, guests attending the banquet cannot enter other areas of the manor at will. But for Shade and the doctor, ordinary guards can't stop them. They just need to avoid the church's ring warlocks.

Shad followed the doctor and walked to the left along the corridor on the first floor. After passing through the corridor, he climbed out of the window and entered the area on the right side of the mansion. Then he passed through the evergreen bushes in winter, entered the stone path, and detoured all the way to the garden behind the manor.

Now that winter is here, even if the royal family pays for maintenance, the scenery of the garden is far inferior to that of midsummer. Beside the snowdrift under the grape trellis, the manservant who was being stared at by the doctor was actually talking to another person. The gentleman opposite the manservant who was possessed by the devil was very familiar to both Shade and the doctor. Sir Priscilla.

"Power? No, no, power is not so easy to obtain."

When Shade and the doctor lurked over cautiously, the conversation between the two had already begun for a while. Although there was a silencing spell on the ground, the doctor just poked it gently with his finger and the sound was transmitted. The Silence Charm is a basic spell, and although its effect is good, as long as the ring magicians discover the spell, they will naturally have ways to deal with it.

The one who was talking was Sir Prisha. The doctor signaled Shade to be silent, and he was about to cast a spell. Shade listened with his ears upright to the private conversation between the two people under the grape trellis, illuminated by the moonlight.

“Of course it’s true to pursue power, but it depends on this.”

Jazz pointed at his head in a stern tone:

"Instead of relying on something like you who doesn't know what it is."

The manservant looks about thirty years old and is dressed very smartly, but the deliberate smile on his face is definitely not what a normal person can show:

"Do you know what great power you have?"

It asked, and Shade and the doctor immediately frowned, because this was actually a devil's language.
