The Whispering Verses Chapter 1700: The soul that will eventually return


The doctor left alone, and Shade returned to the main entrance of the Three Cats Hotel and sat down opposite Durut Giles.

He had no intention of eating here with the other party, so he said directly:

"The expert on curses has seen your situation and will send the magic potion to remove the curse here on the weekend. You will rent a room here as a mailing address later, otherwise the female shopkeeper here, Mrs. Sangmei, will , may not be willing to collect emails for you.”

"All I need is a bottle of antidote?"

The man whose face was still pale said in shock:

"If it were that simple, I..."

"That's because you haven't found an expert. Remember to be a good person in the future and don't rob other people's tombs again. The contract you want to sign with me will be sent together with the antidote. You sign it and send it to me. Go to Professor Manning, he knows where I am staying in the city."

Xia De said again, with an excited expression on the man’s face:

"Thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I would..."

"Don't be happy so early."

Shade interrupted him and looked around to make sure there was no one at the nearby tables:

"You know, the father of the 'little lady' next to you is a Thirteenth Ring soothsayer who defected from the Seer Association. He left prophecies in the blood of all his descendants, and the family We will be reunited one day. I don’t know if this includes souls.”

The girl’s soul floated beside the man and clapped her hands. After Shade’s words fell, she actually sang the prophecy on her own initiative:

"When the day of reconciliation comes~the separated bloodline returns to the origin of the family~we will drink the wine of immortality together~escape the cage of the world~"

"Well, it seems that it does include her."

Xia De shook his head:

"And it's impossible that her father didn't notice when you escaped from the island. By letting her leave so simply, I'm afraid he thought she would definitely come back."

"What?"

Giles’ eyes widened in surprise:

"She wants to go back to that ghost place?"

"I thought you were more surprised by the one with the Thirteen Rings... I don't know exactly what it is like, and I'm not a fortune teller. But this possibility is very high. Since you are willing to let If she follows you, you may also be involved. I want to warn you in advance that this matter is extremely involved, so you'd better be careful."

The man doesn’t know what to say:

"What should I do?"

"Are you willing to let her go? I can let her continue. After all, that's where she should be."

Giles glanced at the girl Soul who was holding his arm and swinging around, and shook his head at Shade:

"I must let her fully recover her humanity and sanity before sending her away. I have no intention of keeping her forever, but that is not now. Besides, I have a hunch that her father, I won’t let her go so easily.”

Xia De shook his head and said nothing more:

"If something happens in the future, don't come to me through Professor Manning, as that will implicate the professor. If something happens, hold a red rose and go to St. Teresa in the core area of ​​the city at 6:30 in the morning or 6:30 in the evening. In front of the fountain statue in the square. My people will notify me if they see you."

"Okay, sir, please allow me to express my thanks again."

Xia De stood up, but before leaving, he grabbed the back of the chair and warned him condescendingly:

"Also, Delarion has a very sound legal system. Although she is dead, her age is still outside the legal range."

Duluth Giles' face turned red. He wanted to explain to Shade, but Shade had already turned around and left.

Although it was easy to find a carriage near Anthem Square, due to the distance between the North City and the Midtown, when Shade got off the carriage at St. Teresa Square, the gas lights surrounding the square were already flickering reassuringly. Warm yellow light.

While preparing to take out the keys, Shade also saw workers hired by the city hall setting up a ladder under the gas lamp on the left side of his window, and then climbed up the ladder to clean the glass shade of the gas lamp.

Gas lamps are not electric lamps, so scrubbing them while in operation is no problem. But this was still very dangerous. Shade stood there and watched for a while, not knowing what reason he should use to warn him.

When I got home, Luvia was already here and was still busy on the third floor. Next Wednesday, the night of the lunar eclipse on the 30th day of the Sowing Month, is getting closer and closer, and Luvia is becoming more and more energetic at work.

"No need to ask me to eat together, just bring me one when you and Mia go to eat!"

The purple-eyed girl's voice came from a higher level when Shade carried Mia, who was welcoming him, up the stairs.

"What do you want to eat?"

"Anything is fine, just keep it simple."

Shad can simply imagine Luvia talking hurriedly while lowering her head to take notes at the table.

Shad now has to go to the Green Lake Hotel to get the four copies of blood, so the meal can be pushed back. But Xiao Mia obviously misunderstood Shade, thinking that he just came home and went out at this time, and wanted to go to dinner without taking it with him, so she followed him to the basement with meow meow, and Shade had no choice but to turn it into a toy Brought to Green Lake.

When I came out of the back door of the hotel, it was completely dark outside. Although there was water everywhere in the garbage alley, at least it stopped raining.

The boy living in the trash can also returned to his residence. When Shade opened the lid of the trash can and the boy appeared with his thin puppy, the little Mia who was transformed back was still very unhappy. He screamed sensibly, and was suppressed by Shade's hand.

"Good evening, sir."

Even though he has seen Shade here many times, the boy is still a little timid. Shade smiled at him, took out the bread and handed it to him:

"I haven't seen you in the past few days. Where did you hide when it rained?"

"There are many bridges on the Duyin River, and you can take shelter under the bridge holes. Some old homeless people will also make fires. If you give them something, I can go over and keep warm."

This answer was no surprise, Shade nodded:

"Be careful in recent times... Have any of the homeless people you know disappeared recently?"

He thought again of the corpses he had seen in various strongholds of "Bad Eye Bali" that were made into water ghosts.

"Yes, but homeless people will disappear one day, just like the sun will always rise, that's normal."

The boy said, then carefully waved to Shade, and then hugged the puppy and retreated back into the trash can.

Speaking of which, although Shade rented a room at the Green Lake Hotel as his temporary mailing address, he actually said that he had never stayed here overnight, and he had not even opened the room a few times.

If it weren't for the house number on the key, he would even ask "her" for the specific location of the room. After opening the room on the third floor, Shade unexpectedly discovered that the gas lamp in the room was actually on.

"The maid who cleans the room is here? But didn't I say that there is no need to clean the room?"

He thought in surprise, alertness already rising in his heart. The moonlight faintly appeared in his hands, and he continued to enter the room. Only then did he see the familiar sorceress with brown shawl hair sitting on the chair next to the desk, reading a book. There is no response from the Witch Detection Badge for the time being, which proves that it is Megan and not Audrey:

"Good evening Megan."

"Good evening, I was just thinking about what time you would come over."

The witch with exquisite makeup stood up, and Shade also saw four slender test tubes filled with blood on the test tube rack on the desk. Each test tube has a label to help Shade analyze and determine the source of the blood.

"You brought your cat again?"

She asked with a smile, and then explained:

"I asked the hostess Helena Green downstairs for the key. There were many people downstairs during dinner time. I didn't want to wait for you there... I need to apologize to you for breaking in without permission. Where do you live? ”

She asked tentatively, Shade shook his head:

"No need to apologize, and you know I don't live here."

This room is the best room in the Green Lake Hotel. In addition to the living room at the entrance, it also has a bedroom and a bathroom. Even comparing the hotels in Green Lake City, it would be hard to find a better room than this one. In addition to the desk, there is also a sofa set in the living room. Meghan probably sent tea and fresh fruit, so the coffee table is not empty.

Seeing the cat eyeing the fruit plate on the coffee table, Shade sat down on the sofa, then picked up the apple and cut it into small pieces with his hands. Megan saw that Shade didn't intend to leave immediately, so she sat opposite him:

"You may still not be able to land on the island tomorrow. The church briefly blocked the waters of Green Lake, and even the cargo ships coming and going were affected. Looking at this situation, I am afraid it will really be next week."

"Then I'll come back on Sunday. If it doesn't work on Sunday, then next week, there will always be a chance."

Xia De said and touched his pocket:

"Speaking of that island, what do you think it is?"

As he spoke, he took out the white crystal key he got from Durut Giles in the afternoon. After the witch took the key, she immediately showed a surprised expression:

"The third key! Where did you get this?"

"Durut Giles, the owner of the pen, is a low-level warlock who led the tomb robbers to the island two years ago."

He did not say that Durut Giles was now in Tobesk City, but he told all the other experiences in the afternoon, including of course the soul of the second-generation eldest daughter, Rusty Edwards, who died in infancy. things.

Megan and Audrey are the descendants of the fifth generation, so the eldest daughter of the second generation who died young is their...grandfather's aunt. Foreigners can't think of a good name for it at the moment. In short, Meghan's relationship with Rusty Edwards is even further than the relationship between Lecia and Miss Carina.

The witch listened attentively. After Shade finished speaking, what she cared about most was not to take revenge on the other party for digging the grave of her ancestor, but another thing:

"You said there are evil spirits and demons left over from the Third Age on the island?!"
