Whispering Poems.

Chapter 1615 Information about Brother Furren

Xia De didn't feel embarrassed to use public funds to order dishes like "fried foie gras with top black truffles", but he was not too polite about ordinary dishes like Green Lake's special bacon soup.The service at the club is attentive and the food comes out quickly.During this period, negotiators from the city hall also came here.

Among the first group of people to enter the door was the "Earl of Newcastle of Lacton". Shade recorded the faces of him and the person who was talking to him.It was already 10 minutes later when the Fulun brothers, who were wearing formal suits and monocles, entered the door.

Shad had greeted the waiter, so the waiter led them directly to Shad's table.When the two brothers were seated, they were a little puzzled watching Xia De ordering for them. Wanting to ask Xia De's identity, Xia De said again:
"Why didn't I see Earl Lewis, I don't know how his injury is."

"The wound on the shoulder is healing, but the wound on the lower body is afraid. Wait a minute, sir, who are you? Did we know each other before?"

Eric Furren, who was wearing a monocle in his right eye, asked in surprise.

"Meet it once, don't you remember? Tobesk, the roof of the Queen Maria Opera House."

The two brothers showed a flustered expression in astonishment. Xia De held the steak with a fork and cut the meat with a knife, while lowering his voice and hurriedly comforted:
"Don't worry, I entered this club as an MI[-] agent."

The expressions on the faces of the two brothers became more and more indescribable.

"Don't look at me like that, anyway, whether it's MI[-] or Gray Gloves, it's hard to confirm the identity of every secret agent at all times. Let me borrow this identity and ask them to pay me to eat something? After all , I have also paid taxes in De La Rion."

He said it as a matter of course, but Mr. Eric Furren, who is an older brother, knew that the high-ring warlock in front of him came to the door, and he definitely did not chat with them:

"Sir, what is your need for us?"

"Yes, I remember that when we met in Tobesk, you held a relic compass, and only then did you locate the material you were looking for."

Shad put the beef into his mouth with a fork, then wiped his mouth with a napkin:

"I want to use your compass to find something."

The two brothers looked at each other, and the brother with the monocle on the right eye asked:
"Sir, what are you looking for? We don't want to pry into your privacy, but you can't find everything with that compass."

"I'm looking for the descendants of the Edwards family, the descendants of the former lords of Green Lake Town."

Xia De said, looking at the two brothers with different expressions:

"I don't know their names, nor their identities. I only know that there are these people. There must be restrictions on the use of relics. Can you find someone?"

he asked, and his brother Charles shook his head:

"The compass can only find non-living bodies, and requires knowing the exact name and shape. Every time you use it, you have to pay a certain price. It cannot be used to find people."

"Forget it, it's really a pity."

Xia De said lightly, without any regret in his tone:

"It's not a big deal for me to find members of the Edwards family. I really hope they jump out and find me."

Saying that, he looked at the two brothers again.

He couldn't take the initiative to say that he knew they were Edwards, otherwise the two had just revealed this to Shad Hamilton in Tobesk, and it was inevitable that something would be associated with it.But according to Xia De's current questioning method, they will only think that the man in front of him has found clues, and they will not easily suspect the detective far away in Tobesk City.

The two brothers had complicated expressions, and they didn't speak immediately because the waiter had already arrived with the dining cart.After the waiter left, Eric asked softly:

"Sir, I don't know what you are looking for them for? We also have a lot of contacts in Willendale, maybe we can help you find them."

"I have a letter from the Edwards family before its collapse. There is a pattern on it that makes me curious. I think the descendants of Edwards may know the meaning of that pattern."

Xia De raised his eyebrows, took out the notebook from his pocket, drew the pattern of the sun, moon and stars with a pen and pushed it to them:
"This is it."

The two brothers pretended not to know that Xia De had seen through them, and Xia De also pretended not to know, they already knew that they had seen through them.Mr. Furren looked at the notebook together, then shook their heads together:
"Sorry, we have no memory of this pattern, but it looks very similar to the back of the Rhodes card."

"Since you have contacts in Willendale, help me check if there is any description about this in the relics of Edwards."

Both brothers understood:

"No problem, we will write to the servant to help you look up the pattern. However, we don't know Edwards other than Edwards of Willendell, how can we contact you later?"

"I'll come to you, anyway, you won't leave the Green Lake area anytime soon."

Shad said:

"And I won't let you help for nothing. If necessary, I can also help you. Also, do you plan to go to the island recently?"

"Originally there were, but there were some changes on the island the day before yesterday. The local church is going to the island to search. We may have to wait for a while before going."

Eric said.

"Well, don't easily expose your relationship with Edwards. This identity will become very sensitive in the future."

The two brothers nodded together:
"My grandfather said similar things before he died. There are not many people around us who know our identities, and no one is in Green Lake."

"It's better. By the way, your grandfather's name is"

"Edward Edwards."

This is the name of the second son.

Shad nodded, and then pointed to the Earl of Newcastle in Laketon:
"What is the earl's purpose in Green Lake? Did he speak at the morning meeting? I use this identity to bring back some information."

"The Earl of Newcastle wants to promote peace, but he is an extreme pacifist and is not welcome in any faction in the country. I heard that he was invited by the Church of Peace before he came to Green Lake , the earl's ideal is very lofty, but it can't be realized at all."

Because it was not very important information, Charles Furren told Shad directly, and Shad nodded and got up to leave:

"The Green Lake area will become messy recently, and you should be careful yourself. Oh, I have already paid for the meal, enjoy your lunch, gentlemen, the fish soup here is very good."

As he spoke, he walked towards the door of the restaurant. No one in the restaurant who was talking in low voices paid much attention to him.After confirming that Xia De had left completely, Charles, who was wearing a monocle in his left eye, asked his brother softly:
"he"

Eric Furlan touches his monocle:

"I can't see any malice towards us, so don't worry too much. But this gentleman is right, we do need to be more careful recently. Don't think too much, let's eat. If what my grandfather said before he died is true, I'm afraid our relatives They will all appear one after another. This is not about the two of us, but about the whole family."

After leaving the club, Xia De got into the carriage and headed south directly out of the city.Although the horse-drawn carriages in the city do not want to enter the remote countryside, fortunately, the nobles of Green Lake City specially built a road leading to the lake for the convenience of going to the lake for vacation and leisure.

Carrying Xia De in the carriage, passing farmers carrying hoes, rickshaws pulling grain, and soldiers patrolling with guns on their backs, turning right at the fork road leading to the outpost barracks, and passing through a newly blooming lilac forest , and brought Xia De to the lake.

This is a village named "Pukhov Village" by the lake. Because the lake thaws in spring, the village, which is an important pier by Green Lake, is also very lively.In order to serve the passing merchants, tourists and soldiers stationed by the lake, the village also has supporting taverns, hotels, and blacksmith shops.And if you want to find other products, maybe you can try your luck with traveling merchants.

"In the Green Lake area, there are more traveling merchants with backpacks and horse-drawn carriages than in other places. The countryside here is vast and the resident population is large, not to mention that it is easy to cross the border. In spring, in the countryside Watching those merchants walking slowly on the country roads full of flowers is the best memory of my childhood in the countryside."

This is what the 40-year-old coachman explained to Xia De on the road.

Pukhov Village was more lively than Xia De thought. Although it was indeed the size of an ordinary village, and the ground was muddy and the air was filled with the smell of chicken manure and the smell of lake water, businessmen, travelers, soldiers and villagers were mixed together. Together, it makes Crossroads Village look more alive than where Shad drank with Captain Rudds.

In Xia De's view, if it weren't for the poor economic development of Green Lake City, the location of this village could actually be a small town.

The purpose of Xia De's trip here is to go to the lake to catch fish, and by the way, to see if the church's team landing on the island has gained anything.After he got off the carriage, he entered the village. The villagers were not at all curious about such a strange face as Xia De. Instead, some enthusiastic children pointed out the direction of the tavern in the village for Xia De.

Of course, Shad didn't go to the tavern.

He looked at the little backward village as he walked across the village to the pier.There is also a notice board erected at the junction of the village's small roads.However, there are no commissions for adventurers to eradicate monsters, find missing goats, or help collect herbs. It is full of information about ships that will be docked in the near future, as well as notices for renting carriages and ships.
