The Whispering Verses Chapter 117: Fake police officers and crappy detectives

Because I only went to the newspaper office to place an advertisement in the morning, I didn’t expect any customers to come to my door in the afternoon. Shade thought that there was nothing important to do today. He only needed to go to the Prophet's Association to appraise the [Original Silver Moon] again tomorrow. There would be nothing important this week, so he spent his afternoon reading and translating.

Xia De thought that he was quite diligent, and the napping cat consciously did not disturb him.

But this leisurely afternoon was soon ruined by the sound of the bell downstairs at half past one. The sleepy cat suddenly jumped up from the sofa, and Shade also stood up in confusion and packed up the sensitive textbooks:

"It's really strange. Who could be looking for me? Could it be that he's looking for Detective Sparrow again?"

Looking down from the living room window, the visitor cannot be seen due to the angle and the rain eaves at the door. Go down the stairs and open the door. When you open the door, you see a young girl with long brown hair.

Standing in front of Shade's house, a young girl with long brown hair who may not be 18 years old is wearing a white ruffled collared shirt with two rows of silver decorative buttons on the chest, and a brown jacket. The waistcoat, without buttons, is a very smart summer dress.

There is a black silk scarf tied around the neckline, a brown checkered handbag in his hand, and a small gold ring on his right hand. The lower body is wearing a very simple skirt, the hem of the skirt is just above the feet wearing black leather shoes.

Although women wearing pants have appeared in this era, ladies still mainly wear skirts.

She stood in front of Sha De's house, and Sha De once again had the illusion that all the light in the world seemed to be shining on her.

Shad's face suddenly froze. It was Miss Iluna Bayas from the Church of the Sun, who Miss Anat considered "one of the thirteen chosen ones" and was considered "one of the thirteen chosen ones" by the woman in her head. The girl who is the protagonist of destiny.

[It’s not what I think, it’s what you think. 】

She said softly.

Last time, Miss Anat said that she tried to pretend to be a prophet to contact Miss Bayas, but she did not expect that the other party would take the initiative to appear in front of Shade.

"No, Miss Anat is originally a prophet, that's not pretending."

Shad reminded himself, and then thought of Miss Anat's instructions at that time, just pretend to be an ordinary detective in front of Miss Bayas.

"Is it Detective Hamilton?"

Seeing that Shade had only opened the door a crack and held on to the door without completely pushing it open, the girl outside the door asked, looking at the detective's expression. This was the first time that Shade heard Miss Bayas speak. Her voice was very clear, and compared to Miss Louisa and Miss Anat, it had a bit more of a girlish youthful feel.

"Why did she come to me...what happened to me?"

Xia De thought in his mind, but did not forget to answer:

"Yes, this is the Hamilton Detective Agency...Good afternoon, ma'am, huh? Have we met before?"

Hearing this question, Miss Bayas blinked but did not answer. After all, the last time they met at Lakeview Manor, she was the captain of the ring warlock team, but Shade had forgotten their encounter, and now it is probably just a residual memory.

She introduced herself to:

"Good afternoon, Mr. Hamilton. I am Iluna Bayas, an employee of Blackstone Security Company, but I am also a nominal police officer employed by the Radwich Field in Tobesk City. I am here today. I want to know something from you about Mr. Lawrence's mistress, Mrs. Lasoya. Recently, for the ribbon-cutting of Queen Diana, Reedwich Field was short of manpower, so this is Blackstone Security and Reed. We hope to cooperate with you on official business."

"Ridevich Field" is the name of the Tobesk City Police Department, which is responsible for managing the security of Tobesk, the capital of the Kingdom of Drarion, and the surrounding areas. It is closely related to the Yodel Palace and the Prophet Association Tobesk. Chapter together, located on Silver Cross Avenue.

The "nominee police officer", like the so-called "detective consultant" and other titles, is an official identity that can be obtained by the security companies or detectives who cooperate with the Ridwich Field. After all, the police also have limited funds and are always short of manpower. As for private security companies and crappy detectives like Shade, it would be much easier to do things if they had official identities.

Since Miss Bayas claimed to be a police officer at Reedwich Field and an employee of the security company, she let Shade understand how the ring magicians of the Orthodox Church cooperate with the kingdom officials.

This is really efficient and convenient for hiding your identity.

"Okay, Miss Bayas, I will cooperate."

He nodded hesitantly, maintaining his normal detective character, and then made way for Miss Bayas to enter. Mia the cat was originally following Shade, but because she was a little afraid of strangers, she left Shade and ran up the stairs first.

When they went upstairs, Xia De was still sighing at the other party's youth, and that as a woman, she could become a police officer in the police department.

"Detective, do you think women don't have this ability?"

Miss Bayas asked casually while looking at the blocked passage on the first floor. Of course Shade denied:

"Of course not, Miss Bayas, I have always believed that women are also an important force in social production. It's just that you are too young."

Miss Bayas, who had probably not conducted several missions independently, then remembered to take out her ID and show it to the detective, thinking that the detective was doubting her identity when he said she was "young".

Because there were some sensitive things in the study, Shade entertained Miss Bayas in the living room. Still using the very good black tea left by the previous detective to entertain guests, Miss Bayas thanked the detective and praised the detective for his good taste.

She looked at the interior decoration of the detective agency. After the two parties sat down, they started talking about business:

"Detective Hamilton, I don't know if you know that Mrs. Lasoya, who was once investigated by your uncle Detective Sparrow Hamilton, is now listed as a wanted person in Ridwich Field."

"You mean Mr. Lawrence's mistress? How could it be? When I saw my client, Mrs. Lawrence, last week, I hadn't heard her say anything about this."

Xia De pretended to be surprised:

"I have also met Mrs. Lasoya, but I never thought that such a noble lady could become a wanted criminal!"

He thought the tone of this sentence might be a bit exaggerated, so he thought about making the next sentence calmer.

But in fact, the two people facing each other now know that "Mrs. Lasoya" is dead and not even a scum is left. But Shade knows that the girl opposite also knows, and he also knows that the girl opposite doesn't know that he knows, which provides great convenience for Shade's disguise.
