Chapter 1620 The witch's potion and the date of the princess

"It's not as exaggerated as you say, but I really don't have a date on Tuesday."

Shad said, and the sorceress took out a test tube containing a black liquid, rolled it from the table to Shad:

"Do me a favor and touch."

Xia De raised his eyebrows:
"why?"

Seeing that he didn't reach out.Miss Pharmacist sighed;

"I don't want to harm you, I just want to test this potion. You saved me on the island, so I will definitely not harm you. We have gone through adventures together, at least you still have this trust, right?"

Xia De reached out and touched the test tube, but nothing happened:
"May I ask what this means?"

The pharmacist lady looked at the test tube, then at Xia De's face:

"If this potion is effective, it means that you are in good health, and you are not possessed by demons, evil spirits and the like. Yes, this is a potion for checking such negative qualities. It's ok, thank you."

She must be lying, but the outsider, who has a sense of deja vu to her behavior, didn't show any other expressions on his face. He nodded:
"If it's okay, I'll leave first. I went fishing by the lake yesterday, and happened to meet the Peace Church team coming back from the island. It seems that things on that island have calmed down."

"I'm also paying attention to the local churches. We shouldn't run into them. But even so, we have to be careful when we act on Tuesday."

Saying that, the two bid farewell briefly, and then Xia De got up and left.

Miss Pharmacist sat there without moving, and took another sip of tea.Mr. Soren Green, who was checking the information of the guests when Shad entered, came over with a tray.Under the gesture of Miss Pharmacist, he picked up the test tube on the table.Almost as soon as his hand touched the test tube, the black liquid turned into milk-like white liquid while boiling.

"interesting."

Miss Pharmacist said, looking at the door of the hotel, with a thoughtful expression on her face:
"Is it a man or a woman? It can't be the other people in the council, are you joking with me?"

"This is no joke, no matter if you are a man or a woman, that lady pharmacist must be Audrey Edwards!"

Galina Cavendish said with certainty.

The time was still this Sunday morning. After Xia De returned home from Green Lake, he met the red-haired witch who brought Tifa to visit because of the "cat in a bottle".

Xia De told her what happened to him at the Green Lake Hotel just now. Miss Galina raised her beautiful eyebrows and made a judgment almost immediately:
"I knew that one or two of them were pretending to be young. Ha, Audrey Edwards, a lunatic, is really shameless to pretend to be a girl in her 20s at such an age."

Even when she was expressing her dissatisfaction, her words were still very elegant.

"Maybe there are other possibilities. Although your judgment is 90.00% correct, maybe."

Xia De asked, and the witch took the teacup from Tifa:
"Isn't what she did today the temptation when I first met you? Oh, Xia De, don't say that you didn't guess what that test tube is for."

"Of course I guessed it, but I still don't understand why I haven't been able to perceive the power of the witch. I don't mean the badge, I mean my own perception."

"Since Audrey Edwards is a great witch of knowledge and wisdom, she naturally has a way to hide herself very well. Moreover, the reason why she went crazy in the past is very suspicious now."

Duchess said:
"When we met for the first time, even though I was very cold towards you, I still offered to take you to the island. I must have wanted to confirm what is going on with you at a close distance. Last time I confirmed that you do not have the illusion of disguised gender , this time I further confirmed your gender with potions. Isn't her method the same as mine?"

Shad does not comment on this:

"Then shall I expose her? Then you will talk to her in the council, just like you did with Miss Benanis at the beginning of the year."

"No, no, no, just pretend you don't know anything. Since she likes playing role-playing games so much, let her play slowly."

Miss Galina raised the corners of her mouth:
"Anyway, I'm going to Green Lake in a few weeks. You cultivate a good relationship with her so that she won't go to the parliament to talk nonsense, and then I will expose her personally. I'm looking forward to what her expression will be then."

Tifa, who was standing by the side of the sofa, had a smile on her face. Seeing that Xia De had noticed her, she blinked at Xia De, indicating that there was nothing wrong.

"Then I will treat her as an ordinary ring warlock for the time being. Her strength is less than eleven rings, which is also a trouble."

Xia De nodded, and Miss Galina also talked about the main purpose of coming here:
"I told Edwards about the potion 'the cat in a bottle' at the council. She was reluctant to help at first, saying that she was busy with other things recently. Later, I promised to raise the price and she reluctantly agreed. Potion It will probably be in my hands tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, so you don’t have to go to other channels to find a solution.”

"I said, it shouldn't take so long to collect the materials for that key. If she was delayed because of the 'cat in a bottle', then it would make sense."

Xia De suddenly realized, the witch snorted again, obviously dissatisfied with her colleagues in the council:
"Judging from the current situation, there is a high probability that the Edwards family or their secrets are related to the chosen ones in the space. Otherwise, how could there be such a coincidence? I don't know if Audrey didn't realize it, or realized that she deliberately didn't Say, but if I hadn’t heard about it from you, even I wouldn’t have known that the Witch of the Council was so deeply involved in the story of the Green Lake area. You should also be careful when you act with her, I’m afraid she will Suddenly going crazy again."

"I think that lady is quite normal."

"Yes, yes, you know her very well now."

She said this on purpose, looking at Xia De with her beautiful eyes, Xia De kissed the duchess' lips:
"I still know you better."

"Sweet talk, leave it to Rezia, isn't she going on a date with you?"

Even though she said that, judging from the expression on her face, she was very satisfied with Xia De's answer.

I don't know if it's out of guilt that I haven't seen Shad much in the past few weeks, or because I want to compensate Shad for the investigation mission of Green Lake, the date that Leiziya arranged this Sunday is indeed beyond Shad's expectations.

He thought it would be an outing in the suburbs, and then he would go back to the city for dinner and go to the opera in the evening as usual.But when I saw a girl wearing a white blouse, a red slim-fitting blazer and a long black skirt in the afternoon, and when she smiled and took off her hat to greet Xia De, Xia De almost didn't recognize this girl with a single ponytail as Rezia.

Every time he saw Rezia, if she wasn't dressed up, at least she was in fairly formal attire.But today's Her Royal Highness is completely dressed like a commoner girl, and there are no servants around her, not even Ajielina.

"From the shocked look in your eyes, I know that it is true that I have spent so much time choosing this suit."

Rezia said, but didn't tell Shad that it was Dorothy who chose the dress in the end.

She put a hand on the door frame:
"Detective, don't you recognize me?"

"It's rare to see you in this style of clothes, but still very beautiful, no, very beautiful."

"You see, you have gradually learned how to get along with girls. Today we will go around the city together. As an ordinary person, I want to spend the rest of the day with you."

She pursed her lips and looked at Xia De. When she entered the hall, Xia De's appearance was reflected in those blue eyes:
"I used Dorothy's body to pretend to be a commoner girl and go on a date with you, but that's not the complete me after all."

She pointed to her chest:
"This kind of opportunity is rare, at least today, let Rezia Cavendish really have nothing to do, walk with you in Tobesk, measure the size of the city, and try the restaurants and pubs of the common people. No What princess, only Rezia."

She blinked:

"Okay?"

Foreigners feel that their hearts are about to be melted by this fiery emotion:
"Okay, I'll pack up and we'll set off, and Mia will stay at home."

As he spoke, he quickly turned and went upstairs. The girl with one hand on her waist was standing in the hallway, looking at his back with a smile.

This afternoon was indeed unforgettable for Xia De.Rezia used some illusions, simply changed her appearance, and then left the house with Shad and entered Tobesk in Spring.

They walked together on the streets of this steam-age metropolis, laughing and talking about the latest weather and recent anecdotes in the city.Because spring has come, they also went to Regent's Park near the Natural Church in the east of the city. While walking on the gravel path together, they watched the trees in the park have sprouted.

In the evening, the two went to the Three Cats Hotel in the north of the city for dinner.When the owner of the shop, Mrs. Sangmei personally delivered the food for them, she did not forget to smile and tease Xia De for bringing a new beautiful girl, and she rested her chin under the gas lamp on the wall, watching the bard singing the legend of ancient heroes. Xi Ya, her delicate side face and snow-white neck are both amazingly beautiful:
"Ma'am, I am not Mr. Detective's lover."

She responded generously to Mrs. Sangmei, her snow-white skin looked even more alluring under the dim light:

"I just hired a detective to protect me for the whole day, and if he behaves well enough, maybe he can continue to protect me tonight."

While speaking, he showed an ambiguous smile.

"It seems to me that Mr. Detective should have such luck."

The female shopkeeper said goodbye to the two of them with a smile. Under the table, Leizia kicked Xia De lightly with her right foot wearing a small black leather shoe:
"Are the girls over there pretty?"

It was already dark outside, and what Rezia was talking about was the warbler who entered the Three Cats Hotel at night and sat by the wall waiting for guests.
