Chapter 1596 The Sorceress of Green Lake

"This looks like cotton, is this also candy?"

Her Royal Highness tried some, and smiled slightly because of the sweetness:
"Cotton candy?"

"Turning food into candy also requires similar color and shape. I can't turn a piece of bread into sugar water. I remember there should be similar cotton candy now?"

The well-informed princess in the court nodded:
"Break egg whites and syrup into foam to make cotton candy, but it's not as good as yours in terms of appearance or taste."

"This can actually be done now, but it depends on machines."

He briefly explained how to make marshmallows. Of course, outsiders know very little about it.Leiziya listened carefully, and sighed after Xia De finished speaking:
"You always have all kinds of novel ideas, but they are all good. For example, Miss Sylvia's inventions."

Xia De blushed and coughed:
"This marshmallow tastes good, doesn't it? If you like, I can make more candies that you haven't eaten before."

Saying that, Xia De did not forget to stop the fan lock, otherwise it would be very troublesome to clean up the sugar that has fallen all over the floor.He put Littlea back on the table, and gave a small portion of the bowl of marshmallows to the cat.

"It's breakfast time, and I'm not a kid who likes sugar. Besides, I'm going to help Dorothy keep in shape."

Rezia said, looking at the bowl of sugar again:
"The target of the spell is what you think is food? If it is not forcibly changing the cognition, it may cause the ring warlock to lose control, and this ability has more uses."

Rezia smiled and said:

"And your complex fan lock has become more like a fairy tale. When the little match seller walked barefoot on the street at night, only to find that the snowflakes falling from the sky turned out to be sugar. If this is true, " The fairy tale of Match Girl is no longer a tragedy."

This morning, I was going to Grandma Natalie at the 【Light Guiding Priory】to find out if the Ring Warlock who wanted to buy "Orichalcum" would like to meet, so I entrusted Mia to Dorothy after breakfast. Shad set off for the Green Lake area.

After carefully slipping out of the underground warehouse of the Green Lake Hotel, Shad still left the hotel through the back door of the kitchen.

Yesterday's child was still living in the trash can next to the door, Xia De didn't bother him, but put a few copper coins next to the trash can.He didn't worry about it being taken away by others, no one would come here at all.

The journey was not far, Xia De came to the Kingfisher tailor shop on foot, and saw Natalie's mother-in-law through the secret passage in the dressing room in the corner.This old lady has the strength of eleven rings close to twelve rings, which fits Xia De's impression of Guiding Light Priory.

"good morning."

After a brief greeting, Grandma Natalie gave Shad a note:
"The other party is willing to see you, but she can only reveal a few pieces of information about the Edwards family, and it is impossible to tell you all of them."

"The Edwards family is a family of ordinary people. Doesn't her appearance show that Edwards has a deeper secret?"

Xia De said with a smile, looking at the note, it was the address of Green Lake City:

"Green Lake Hotel, 10st floor, 30:[-] this morning?"

It was 57:[-] in the morning, and half an hour was enough time for Xia De to walk back:

"Grandmother, do you have any relics or potions that can turn people into animals in a short period of time? The relics are fine, potions are the best."

Using relics for body transformation must have very serious side effects, which also belongs to the common sense of ring warlocks.

"That kind of potion is not easy to find. If you are willing to wait, I can contact my old friend, but it will take at least a month or two to get an answer."

The old man behind the counter said, Xia De nodded:

"Forget it, I think I'll have the finished product this week."

"The brewing of that level of potion itself is very time-consuming, so you can only find potions that have been prepared. It is not easy, but if you have access to the three major colleges, you can try to go to the college to find it. After all, for Teaching, Potions professors will hoard finished potions for classroom teaching."

This gave Xia De a new way of thinking.

When Xia De was about to leave, Grandma Natalie stopped him again and told him:

"The buyer of Orichalcum has a little bit of a personality problem. If you find her cold and slightly hostile towards you, please don't take it seriously. My old friend has always been like that."

She hesitated for a moment, then remembered that Shade was introduced by Mr. Edmond:

"She is a high-ring warlock. There was a time when she had a problem. She almost lost control. In recent years, her mental state has improved, so no matter what she says, don't mind too much. This deal is guaranteed by me, definitely not There will be problems."

"This kind of high-ring warlock is very dangerous."

Xia De sighed, then frowned slightly, and connected the characteristics mentioned by Granny Natalie with a certain type of person he knew.

"Shouldn't it be such a coincidence?"

He pressed his chest, and he always carried the "Witch Detection Badge" with him.

Grandma Natalie said that the buyer had reserved a location on the first floor with the owner of the "Green Lake Hotel" in advance, so after Xia De returned to the hotel at [-]:[-] this morning, he went directly to the counter to inquire about the location. matter.

However, unfortunately the owner of the hotel, Mr. Soren Green, was not there. What Shad saw behind the counter was a woman who was about the same age as Mr. Green and also had brown hair.

After Xia De introduced her identity, the woman smiled and said:

"Mr. Watson, you didn't come back last night, and we were worried if you got lost in this strange city."

"I stayed in Mikaela Blast City last night. I was delayed when I crossed the border, and it was too late when I wanted to come back after visiting the city."

Xia De said that the woman helped to find Mr. Soren Green's notebook:
"I found it. The lady who met you asked you to wait for her at the table under the Green Lake oil painting against the wall. If she doesn't arrive at 10:30 in the morning, she will not be late for more than 10 minutes at most."

"Thank you, Mrs. Green."

Xia De thought the woman in front of him was Mr. Green's wife. After all, the hotel servants were very respectful to her, and she also had the key to the drawer under the counter.But this time, he guessed wrong.

"Mr. Watson, you may have misunderstood me. I am not my brother's wife. I am Helena Green, the twin sister of Soren Green. My brother is already married. If Sarah hears it, she will joke again urged me to get married earlier."

Xia De was a little embarrassed:

"I'm sorry, I thought you looked nothing like Mr. Green."

"After all, we are a man and a woman. We have never been alike since we were young."

Xia De chatted with Ms. Helena Green for a few more words, then ordered a cup of hot tea, and then came to sit under the oil painting of Lake Green.

It's Wednesday morning, and there aren't many people in the hotel.The news about the upcoming negotiations in this area in the newspaper was full of disturbing articles. Xia De just flipped through it, then sat at the table and looked at the door of the hotel boredly, guessing what the sorceress looked like.

"Grandma Natalie said that the other party is her friend for many years, so the lady should be quite old, but it is not difficult to find a way to maintain youth, so the other party may also look very young."

The time soon came to 10:30 in the morning, and there was still no one on the opposite side of Xia De who was holding a teacup.The lady was late, but not too late. Two minutes later, the door of the Green Lake Hotel was pushed open from the outside, and a lady with light brown shawl hair broke into the room with thin sunlight.

She looked about 21 or [-] years old, wearing a high-necked dark purple silk dress that fell below her ankles.The figure is tall and the coat is high-waisted, making the waist appear slim.The shoes are low-heeled, and the specific appearance cannot be seen because of the hem of the skirt, but they should be black button-up shoes.As for the crown of the head, a wide-brimmed hat is decorated with embroidered lace.

Solemn and conservative, this is the dressing style of middle-class women in this era.On the contrary, at the banquets of nobles, the matching of dresses is sometimes more bold.

Her face is very delicate, but she has a very indifferent expression. You don't need to think about it, you know that what you see at this time is the appearance of this lady in disguise.After entering the door, the sorceress pursed her lips and looked directly at Xia De. Her pupils constricted for a moment, she blinked for a moment, and then walked over directly.And as she approached, Xia De also knew that the other party should be the eleventh ring or the twelfth ring, which was very close to Granny Natalie's level.

"Mr. Watson?"

After sitting down, the woman asked softly in Kasenlik.It wasn't a local accent, but it sounded very nice.It's just that her tone was as indifferent as her expression, as if there was something dirty on Xia De's body.

"It seems that Grandma Natalie is absolutely right."

Xia De thought to himself, and then pressed his chest. There was no response from the witch detection badge at the moment, and the other party did not ask to shake his wrist, which meant that Xia De seemed to be really worried.

"Yes, I am John Watson, and it was Grandma Natalie who gave me the time and place to meet."

Xia De introduced that there are almost no people on the first floor of the hotel now, and there is no need to worry about their conversation being heard by ordinary people.

The sorceress nodded coldly, and put her gloved hand on the table.Observing her so closely, this unknown lady has a very unique aura.That kind of indifferent expression, which is difficult to touch, not only did not destroy her beauty, but made her look different from ordinary women.

Xia De wanted to ask the waiter to ask for a cup of tea for her, but the other party refused:

"I still have some things, I will leave after we finish talking."

　PS: Cotton candy in the modern sense appeared after the 19s.
