The Whispering Verses Chapter 1913: Early morning in the rain
Chapter 1913 Morning in the Rain
"Iluna, hold this again."
Shade conveniently gave [Night Watcher] to Iluna:
"This sword can enhance the effect of thaumaturgy. Although the church also has similar relics, there should be no better sword than mine in a short time. As for how it got into your hands, just tell me , it was the Witch Council that paid the price and asked the God Summoner to borrow it. Afterwards, the church had to compensate the Witch Council to repay the price paid by the Council to the God Summoner."
Shad, who was wearing pajamas, said and put the sword into Iluna's hand:
"Go ahead and let them see. Although the chosen ones of Balance do not have a high level of ring warlocks like Death and Earth, in the eyes of "Mysterious Liquid Tuduan" Ya, they are the real ones of this era. Protagonist."
He yawned again, and at the same time the cat at his feet also opened its mouth and yawned, but when Shade looked down at it, the cat immediately closed its mouth again.
"Shadow."
Iluna pursed her lips and looked at him:
"But such a useful alchemical item will be saved until Wednesday"
"I have plans for Wednesday."
Besides, the priest will personally land on the island for the remaining one-sixth of the skull.
"Okay then."
She looked at the sleepy man in pajamas in front of her:
"Yeah"
I wanted to say something, but the words came to my lips and I couldn't. I wanted to say goodbye and leave to solve things over there, but I felt that leaving like this would be hasty.
"What's wrong? Do you want me to come with you? Then I have to change my clothes."
"No, no, with this, I can do it myself."
I want to say thank you, but I feel like it will seem alienating. Iluna always thought that she was an eloquent person, but only now did she realize that it was just her illusion.
A girl who worries about gains and losses is a little annoyed by her own "stupidity". This should be a good opportunity to strengthen the relationship. Then somehow, she said something that made her want to travel through time and punch herself afterwards:
"Just think of this halo as a birthday gift to me."
Until many, many years later, Iluna Emilia Bayas still didn’t know why she said these words.
The next moment he realized what he had said, his face turned red and he lowered his head, wishing he could turn into an ant and disappear.
Xia De also looked at her in surprise:
"How is this okay? The birthday gift is given to you on your birthday, and I have prepared it."
As he spoke, he quietly turned sideways, blocking the black scales, golden apples and the bouquet of flowers that were clearly placed aside.
Iluna blushed and opened her mouth, really not knowing what to say this time. Shade saw her embarrassment:
"Then I wish you good luck with your move."
Blinking, Shade hesitated for a moment, but still kissed her forehead:
"It's really hard work early in the morning."
Iluna suppressed her heart that was about to jump out of her chest;
"I'm leaving first. You should go to the Green Lake Hotel for breakfast later and you should be able to hear my good news."
As he spoke, he waved his hand to Shade, turned around, touched the statue and left as if running away.
"Iluna was really weird just now. Is it because she didn't sleep well?"
Xia De murmured to himself, then bent down to pick up little Mia:
"Do you want to go back to sleep?"
"Meow~"
Mia, who was very sleepy just now, is now active again, and it seems that she does not need to continue to rest. Shade was originally wondering how the cat woke up so quickly. When he stepped on his slippers and went up the stairs, he later guessed that it probably understood what Iluna said about "breakfast."
Although he woke up earlier than usual, Shade did not go back to sleep. When there was nothing to do in the early morning, he washed up and went to the basement to sort out the relics he had collected and decide what he would take with him on Wednesday. This is not an easy task, because Sha De now has more and more relics.
When the milkman delivering the goat's milk arrived outside, the cat that had been waiting in the foyer immediately ran into the basement and meowed to remind Shade. After Shade opened the door and looked at the toppling rain in Tobesk City, he muttered naturally:
"It's still raining as expected."
Then it suddenly dawned on me that this was not the city of Green Lake. Tobesk had been a smoky and sunny day in the city for the past few days. The newspaper even said that the precipitation in the Tobesk area this spring was significantly less than in previous years.
"The sky is normal, the cracks have not spread here yet."
Shad looked up at the sky again, used the key to open the milk box hanging on the side of the door and took out two bottles of goat milk. After putting them on the shoe cabinet, I put the two empty glass bottles that I forgot to put in yesterday into the milk box.
He did not go back immediately, but stood on the doorstep and looked at Saint Teresa Square where it was raining in the early morning. Although it was still early, the morning wind was anything but cool. Suddenly I understand that the second half of the month of praying for rain has arrived, and spring is coming to an end.
After traveling around Green Lake City for two months, he was not even able to take a good look at the spring in Tobesk City after the city riding competition:
“Time flies so fast, it’s been one year in a blink of an eye.”
The rain was not heavy, so he walked out of the door and looked up at his house at the door, thinking that when he first took over this place last year, the house was almost abandoned. Not only can every room now be used, but he has also discovered the reasons why this house has killed one owner after another in the past. Even the house now has a mistress.
[Use the plural here. 】
"My grammar is not very good, you know, I am a foreigner."
Shad smiled and answered in his heart, and then remembered that Mr. Euclid, who left the [Source of Chaos] and the letter, in addition to mentioning the Chosen One of the Moon, also mentioned that he was During the three months I lived here, I noticed a lot of dangers (Chapter 1088). Among them, the "sigh of the dead" has been clearly defined as the boundary between life and death on the third floor, but he still doesn't know what the "beating sound of dice" and "the beeping sound of flames" are.
"The stargazer seems to have very good hearing, and all he observes are sounds."
Shad looked at his house and thought to himself, while little Mia poked her head out of the door and looked at Shad, wondering why Shad hadn't come back to prepare breakfast.
The courier wearing a poncho drove the post office carriage and drove into Saint Teresa Square. Seeing that the door of No. 6 was open, he came to the door of No. 6 first:
"Good morning, Mr. Hamilton, here is your newspaper. Go back quickly and be careful of catching a cold. Spring flu is prevalent in the city recently."
The big-nosed middle-aged courier said, and Shade smiled and nodded. He saw that the front page of the dry newspaper was still reporting on the large-scale military mobilization in the Green Lake area.
He shook his head. At this moment, the neighbor's door opened. The resident of No. 7 is a researcher at the Kingdom's Army Steam Machinery Equipment Research Institute and is away from home all year round, so the person who opened the door was Mr. Smith, the neighbor of No. 5 on the other side.
"Oh, Mr. Hamilton, you woke up so early too?"
"Yes, I was woken up by my cat. It always reminds me to get up on time."
Xia De stood under the rain eaves in front of his house and said. As for the gray-haired Mr. Smith, in addition to his plaid pajamas, he also wore a red buttoned sweater on his upper body. Elderly people should really pay attention to what they wear early in the morning on rainy days. temperature.
Now that they met, Mr. Smith stood under the eaves of his house and chatted with Shade, who was also wearing slippers.
The topic of conversation was naturally the events in the Green Lake area in the newspaper in hand. The former chief secretary of the Ministry of Finance of the Kingdom was worried about the future of the two countries. Even if he knew that the major assassinations of Miss Carina and Princess Margaret were not carried out by MI6 and Gray Gloves, he still believed that the hasty termination of the Green Lake negotiations would most likely lead to further deterioration of relations between the two countries.
"Oh, Mr. Hamilton, don't worry too much."
At the end of the chat, Mr. Smith comforted him, and Shade was stunned for a moment before he understood:
"I have received an urgent letter from Miss Carina sent by steam train. She said that she was just a little frightened and not injured. She will be back soon. I wish her good health."
The worried old man nodded and had no intention of teasing his young neighbor about his affair with the Grand Duchess of the Kingdom.
When Shade arrived at the Green Lake Hotel with Mia, newspapers, and two bottles of goat's milk, it was still pouring heavily outside.
He met Little John who was temporarily living here in the kitchen. The boy was now helping in the kitchen, so he had taken a bath and had new clothes. The puppy was kept in the backyard of the hotel. When he saw Shade, the boy greeted him timidly, and only thanked him loudly when Shade was about to leave.
But this was not what Shade cared about. He met Priest August and Dr. Schneider who came down to have breakfast on the first floor, and only then heard that the matter in the city had been resolved.
"Detective, you really missed the excitement. At around three o'clock this morning, a colorful glow appeared in the northwest. I woke up with a start and almost thought I was still dreaming."
Dr. Schneider said to Shade.
The spatial fusion that Iluna mentioned is the intense collision of spirits and elements, forming an optical phenomenon that ordinary people can see with their naked eyes. This in itself is an extremely dangerous signal. It means that the abnormal phenomena in the world can be easily observed by ordinary people, which means that the changes in space have reached a level that must be resolved immediately.
Today is Tuesday, with less than 40 hours left before the Edwards Night Dinner, and Shade still has a lot to do. During breakfast, I talked with Father August and Dr. Schneider about our plans for landing on the island on Wednesday. After breakfast, he greeted the witches who came to the Green Lake Hotel to continue discussing tomorrow's plans, and then went out in the rain again:
"What are you going to do?"
Miss Carina pulled Shade’s sleeve:
"We are all here, who else are you looking for? Didn't Anat say she would be there in a moment?"
"I'm going to see Miss Daniste."
