Whispering Poems

Chapter 1573 The Chosen One of Space

"Last night was not an explosion, it was the church's arrest of [Mirror Association] members."

At ten o'clock on Friday morning, after seeing off Dorothy and Rezia who were about to go to Leizia's private tailor to order spring dresses, Xia De, who had just returned to No. [-] Saint Teresa Square, went from Luvia There the news was heard.

The purple-eyed girl waited for Xia De to come back at home ahead of time. She didn't care about the two different scents on Xia De's body, but first congratulated Xia De for winning, and after helping him put the trophy in the study, she teased him a bit Miss Galina actually tolerated Rezia and Dorothy "playing games" with Xia De at her place.

"I received news from Iluna that [Mirror Association]'s bold action is related to the chosen ones."

Luvia said.

"what?"

Xia De came out of the bedroom after changing his clothes, and frowned after sitting on the sofa with Miya in his arms:
"It's related to the chosen one? Wait, is the fragment of "Whispering Verses" pointing to the equestrian competition?"

"I don't know the details yet. The church used psychic methods to summon the soul of the [Mirror Association] ring warlock who was killed last night, and only then did I get part of the information. Wait for Iluna, she took about half an hour Come later."

Xia De nodded, stroking Mia's back:
"It seems that my rest time is over again."

They said they would arrive in half an hour, but in fact it was already eleven o'clock when Iluna arrived at the Plaza de Saint-Andres.

Xia De went downstairs to open the door and greeted Iluna. The 17-year-old girl sat down without exchanging too many pleasantries, and said:
"The Mirror Association got some fragments of the poem, and the sixth chosen one is the chosen one of the space. The message that the church has got from the broken souls is: the chosen one of the space is related to the participation in the 1854 Tobesk City Ring It is related to the 36 contestants in the city riding competition."

Luvia frowned deeply:
"What does it mean to be related? If it is related, because Xia De is a contestant, even you and I can be counted among them."

"Relevant means that the candidate for the space may be one of the 36 contestants, or they may be their most trusted friends or closest relatives."

"You are still in it."

Shad pointed out:

"I don't have any relatives, and my most trusted friends are you. Or not friends but a more private relationship."

The purple-eyed girl had a smile on her face:
"Look at what you said. Iluna, then [Mirror Association] brought [Faceless Man] here this time for..."

"The chosen person has a strange fate and unique means. The Mirror Association tries to let the chosen person meet the [Faceless Man], no matter what happens, they can get effective information. But unfortunately, the chosen person probably did not arrive The scene. The only ring warlock who had a direct conflict with the [Faceless Man] was Shad, and Shad only used ordinary people's methods. Luvia, you have said many times that Shad cannot be the chosen one."

Iluna said, and looked at Shad again:

"However, the church should investigate Xia De's personal relationship in the near future to determine whether the chosen one is related to him. Don't worry about this, I will help you fool the past. But according to past experience, once an event that matches the fragments of the psalm occurs , represents the beginning of the epic of the newly chosen ones. Shade, we originally planned to let you rest for a whole spring."

She said apologetically, Xia De shook his head:
"It doesn't matter, but what is the direction of the investigation now? Should we also investigate the interpersonal relationship of all 36 contestants? The church can do this, and they have sufficient manpower, but we cannot conduct a large-scale investigation."

"Let Iluna inquire about the news in the church first, and I will communicate with Galina, and then find a way from the Prophet Association. Now that I can borrow the power of the Witch Council, many things will be more convenient. Once there are clues , I can use the remaining two demon gold coins to further narrow down the scope of the investigation."

Luvia turned her head and looked out the window:
"However, why are there clues about the chosen ones in Tobesk? Is this city really that special?"

So far, except for the Chosen One of Death and the Chosen One of Earth, the other Chosen Ones are more or less related to Tobesk.

"The key now is to determine whether the candidate is in the local area. If not in the local area, I will go to other cities to prepare white stone crystals and items that can make me lucky in a short time. I originally planned to visit Gothe after this game Miss, it seems that my spring travel plan can only be postponed temporarily."

Shade said.

"Meow~"

Mia yelled, not knowing what she wanted to express.

It was Friday, the fourth day of April, the month of sowing, when Iruna brought news of the fragments of the canto.On the second day, early Saturday morning, Xia De received a letter from Miss Mia Gold from afar:
"Ha, Miss Gold said, Mia's birthday is this week! I said, I guessed right! Mia, how about we have a big dinner tonight?"

Because Xia De mentioned his plan to visit her in his reply at the beginning of last month, so in this month's letter, apart from the usual greetings and trivial matters about Mia, Miss Gold also mentioned Xia De's visit.

She obviously thought that Xia De hadn't set off when she received this letter, because when talking about this matter in the letter, it was also based on the premise that Xia De was preparing for this trip.

To put it simply, Miss Gothe welcomes Xia De to bring Mia to visit her, but she is dealing with trivial matters in the family territory recently.While recruiting helpers and adventurers who are willing to stay in that remote and deserted ancient town, at the same time, as the local lord family, repair the church, sanatorium, tavern, carriage post, and artisan union in the town that were damaged by various accidents last year , cemetery, blacksmith shop and other basic functional buildings for people's livelihood.

In her letter, she suggested that Shad could wait to visit her in the summer months later, when the town should have gradually returned to its former tranquility.At the same time, she also mentioned that after Shade's visit, Mia can stay by her side directly, which can be regarded as the end of this long entrustment of taking care of the pet cat.

"To keep Little Mia with her once I visit her?"

Xia De took the letter and glanced at the cat on the dining table licking goat's milk with its head down. The cat with very sensitive senses sensed Xia De's gaze, raised its head and looked at him with innocent eyes, the hair around its mouth was stained with white goat's milk The appearance is very funny.

[You won't decide not to go near Mia Gold's town for this reason, right? 】

"She" suddenly whispered in Xia De's ear, Xia De shook his head, and shook off the unethical thoughts in his heart:
"I'm definitely going, no matter what method I use, I must keep Mia by my side. However, since Ms. Gothe asked me to postpone my travel plan, and the matter of the chosen person in the space happened to happen, I would like to postpone visiting her for a while That's fine too."

Xia De said to himself, folded the letter paper and put away the 10 pound note.

"Since Miss Gothe is working hard to revive the family and the town, maybe I can express my kindness in other ways. For example, if she is short of money, I can lend her some. Now I am relatively rich."

After experiencing the adventure in the Randall Valley, even if the shares in the unmined gold mine in the Randall Valley are not counted, the deposit in Shad's hand has unknowingly reached five figures again.Coupled with the wealth that Shade is not willing to cash out easily, such as the box of gems in Huntington City, his average wealth level is probably already barely comparable to the lowest level of his neighbors.

Now that he had already thought about what he would say to Miss Gothe, he planned to write a reply to Miss Gothe right away, so as not to wait for Iluna or Luvia to get any further news about the chosen one, so he got busy with this matter. Forget about it.But just as he walked to the study, he heard a knock on the door from downstairs:
"A client?"

Shade went downstairs and opened the door expectantly, only to find that the two twin brothers wearing monocles were Eric Furlan and Charles Furlan.

Although he has not known them for a long time, Xia De regards them as his friends because of his similar interests.He warmly invited the two brothers to go upstairs, but they just stopped in the hallway, and the two came to say goodbye:

"Mr. Hamilton, we are leaving Tobesk this afternoon. I just went to Silver Cross Avenue to do business. I thought you live nearby, so I came over to say hello to you."

Mr. Eric Furlan, who is the elder brother, said, while Mr. Charles Furlan, who wore a monocle in his left eye, handed Shad a book:

"We came from Willendale, and we didn't bring any good things. This book is given to you as a gift. This book is out of print. Although it's not worth too much money, it is also our heart."

It was "The Collection of Kasenlik Fairy Tales" written in the Kasenlik language. This is an old book, but it has been preserved quite well.

"This is really embarrassing. I should have given you a parting gift."

Xia De said that he was about to go upstairs to search for gifts, but was stopped by two brothers in black suits:

"As a friend, there's no need to be so polite."

Eric Furlan said with a smile, then held out Shade's hand and said goodbye:

"We are going to Green Lake City and Mikaela Blast Furnace City next time. I really envy your comfortable detective life."

Xia De also shook hands with the two brothers respectively:

"Will Earl Lewis, who was seriously injured, also go? Or return to the city of Willendale to recuperate? I hope that my behavior at the banquet last night was not too rude."

Mr. Charles Furlan shook his head:

"It's time for someone to teach the Earl some lessons, cough cough, I mean, yes, Earl Lewis still went to the Green Lake area as originally planned. Since he suffered such a serious injury, he still insisted on participating in the next negotiation, and we Is there any reason not to go? However, this is not a meaningless trip, we have always wanted to visit Green Lake. It is our mother’s hometown.”
