Chapter 1693 Dinner
Shad stared at the map, the Duchess' hand continued to move:

"The west coast of the old continent, the eye of the storm. The ancient island peoples formed the archipelago kingdom around the eye of the storm-Kelagley. The sturdy folk customs, harsh living environment, and living habits that are completely different from those in the mainland make these fishing The people of the archipelago who live on pirates and pirates are more eager for the wealth and civilization created by the old continent. In recent years, in order to maintain the waterway through the new continent, we and Kasenlik have sent fleets to wage war on the archipelago kingdom, but this is not Did not make them submit."

The so-called "eye of the storm" refers to a unique natural phenomenon on the west coast of the Old World, or a natural disaster.Once an eye is formed, several large oceanic storms can hit the same area at the same time.And the "eye of the storm" will only be produced near the archipelago kingdom. The famous novel "Adventure Guide for the Eye of the Storm" describes the story of the fleet going out to sea to trade in the archipelago. story.

The three forces pointed out by Miss Galina are only the biggest troubles at present, and there are not many other challenges facing Delarion and Carson Rico.She gave Xia De time to think. The chaotic situation cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences, but at least it can make Xia De realize that the coming of war may be easier than imagined. It's definitely not just Carson Rick who is in trouble.

While the two were talking, Director An Luosi knocked on the door and walked in:

"Duke, do you have something to do with me? It's something about the Green Lake area"

He saw Xia De at once, and swallowed half of what he said:

"Good afternoon, knight."

He didn't have any curiosity about how Shad came to the Yordle Palace under strict guards without anyone noticing, he just took it as he was here in the first place.

"Good afternoon, Director."

Xia De also nodded in response to his boss.

"Should I back out first?"

Seeing Xia De and Miss Galina talking about things, the ordinary-looking middle-aged man asked naturally. Miss Galina shook her head and pointed to the document on the coffee table:
"My informant in the Green Lake area brought out this document from the home of a local gang leader. Look, it's the same document you found on the Carson Riker man who committed suicide last week. , isn't it similar?"

Director An Luosi hurried to check, just glanced at it and nodded with certainty:
"Yes, it should be the same ciphertext. Duke, may I ask which gang leader in the Green Lake area is the source of information? Two-gun Rick? Smoker Victor? One-eyed Barry? Or Henry Vito from the Vito family? ?”

Here, only the last name is normal.

"One-eyed Barry. But there were some minor accidents in Green Lake City yesterday, to be exact."

Miss Galina glanced at Xia De with her beautiful golden eyes:
"The church and the cultists are fighting on the lake. One-eyed Barry has been identified as a cultist, and he has been killed with a high probability. Even if he was not killed on the spot, you will not be able to contact him. Therefore, the source of this information cannot be determined by us. Anyone other than the three know."

"Yes, duke, I understand."

Director An Luosi nodded slightly:
"There is not much progress in cracking the ciphertext, but with this second copy, give us some time, and we will definitely gain something."

Miss Galina nodded, and Director An Luosi left.

When the door was closed, Xia De asked curiously:

"Actually, I've always been curious. Director An Luosi knows that you are a ring warlock?"

"What kind of strange question is this, of course I know. Rezia's father, His Majesty the King trusts me so much in contacting and even influencing MI[-], isn't it because I am the strongest extraordinary person in the royal family?"

Galina Cavendish looked at Shad with a smile:

"In a world of extraordinary beings, intelligence work is not so easy to do. Dak Anros is one of the few smart people. He knows what he should believe and what he should obey. To be the director of MI[-] requires more than just It’s just a secret agent’s method.”

Her finger touched Shad's chest:

"For example, the ace agent of MI[-], is he really an agent?"

Of course not, it's just because of the duchess.

Xia De will go to find Rezia next, so he doesn't plan to stay in the Yodel Palace for too long.But the witch obviously didn't want to let him go like this, and she came up with a very suitable reason:

"Rezia and Diana will be back soon. Instead of you looking for her, you might as well wait for her here. I have tea and snacks here. And me, isn't it better than you taking a carriage?"

So Xia De stayed, but he didn't waste the afternoon in vain. The Duchess had a lot of documents waiting to be processed, so he gave some to Xia De for him to help.

Of course, it is impossible for him to make any judgments or decisions, but he can still do simple tasks such as signing and stamping, or discussing the meeting schedule with Miss Galina.

As for meeting Rezia in the afternoon, it was already close to evening.When the maid brought the news of the queen's return to the palace, Xia De was sitting on the side of the desk, holding a document about the rules of the grain import and export conference, and talking with the witch about the domestic grain harvest in recent years.

Hearing that the person who had been waiting had finally returned, Miss Galina asked Tifa to call Rezia who had just returned to the Yordle Palace.As soon as the somewhat puzzled princess entered the door, Xia De warmly embraced her:

"Aunt Galina, I'm here, Xia De, what's the matter?"

She was hugged tightly by Xia De, feeling more and more puzzled.Looking over Shad's shoulder to the Witch, who just gave her a smile.

So, Her Royal Highness asked rather uneasy:
"Well, it still has something to do with what happened last Saturday?"

"No, that incident has passed, why are you still thinking about it? There is nothing to do today, just to give you a hug."

He said with a smile, and said goodbye to the girls in the room:
"The object has been accomplished, and I shall go. Little Mia is still with Dorothy, and has woken up from her nap."

"So, you waited here all afternoon just to give Rezia a hug?"

The witch sat behind the table and asked suspiciously, Xia De nodded:
"It's important, isn't it?"

As he said that, he walked to the window, waved goodbye, and then the cat transformed into silver jumped out of the window.

Leiziya watched Xia De's figure disappear, but still didn't understand what happened.

Miss Galina asked:

"Speaking of which, what the hell happened to you guys last Saturday? Judging from the way you brought Adelina to my place on Sunday morning, you made a bad decision and made Shad angry? It's hard to imagine that a good-tempered person like Xia De would still be angry, especially with the girls around him."

She looked at Tifa who was pouring tea, so the black-haired maid also agreed:

"I never thought that the detective would be angry with the people around him."

Rezia pursed her lips and sat on the sofa, took the teacup and held it in her hands:

"That incident has passed, and I promise Xia De that I will not do it again."

"Your personality will be soft, which means that it is really a very troublesome mistake."

The witch sat beside her:
"If you can, tell me what it is. Maybe, you need my advice. Although we had conflicts before, but now"

(Mia is running.)

Because he was going to pick up Mia from Dorothy, Shad originally planned to have dinner with Miss Writer.But it was very unfortunate that Dorothy was going home to visit her parents today, so Xia De just picked up the cat and left.

When I got home, the evening sun had already reflected on the window glass.Since Luvia still has to come to install and adjust her stargazing equipment, it's okay to have dinner with Luvia.

It was only when Xia De went to the Prophet Association to wait for her to get off work that he found out that today the association organized a dinner party for fortune-tellers from the local area above Central.When the purple-eyed girl told Xia De about this in the empty corridor of the association, she mentioned that it seemed to be related to the fortune teller of the [-]th ring in Green Lake, but she didn't know what it meant.

Since Luvia was having dinner at the association, Xia De could only take the cat, who was already anxious about dinner, to eat alone.There are many options for eating by himself. Although his cooking skills are not as good as those of the girls around him, he can still eat by himself.

After saying hello to Mark, the vice president of the association, he walked towards the first floor of the association while thinking about whether to go to the north of the city to visit the vegetable market in the lower city.

It's just that I just returned to Silver Cross Avenue with Mia in my arms, and before I had time to marvel at the street scene of Silver Cross Avenue under the dim yellow sunset, I saw a familiar figure walking along the street:

"Iruna!"

Xia De waved to the 17-year-old girl. Iluna, who was wearing a white blouse with a black skirt and a black hat with flowers on her head, looked up at him and smiled:
"Oh, good afternoon. Are you here to find Luvia too? How about we have dinner with her? I have some news and the prop for you."

She was referring to the alchemy items needed for the final adventure of Shade's "Seven Days Journey", but because it was on the street, she was very vague.Tomorrow is Wednesday, and the adventure of the time key will come to an end.

"The association is going to have a dinner party, and Luvia can't leave."

Xia De shook his head, and then naturally sent out the invitation:
"Just now I was thinking about what to eat. Iluna, let's go have dinner together."

"Meow!"

The cat squatting on the shoulder let out an impatient cry. The cat eats regularly, so it will show a bad temper when it misses the time.

"Of course, but why do you look in such a good mood? Did anything good happen today?"

The two walked side by side along the street.

Shad thought for a moment:
"Well that's hard to explain. But can I give you a hug in a minute?"

He turned his head and asked Iluna, the dim yellow sunset in the western sky reflected Shade's face red, and also reflected Iluna's side face red.The short-tube women's lace-up cloth boots kicked away the stones in front of them. The stones bounced to the middle of the road with a clatter, and were run over by the wheels of the carriage.The cat's dissatisfied expression and Xia De's face together formed a somewhat funny picture in the field of vision. The 17-year-old girl was happy in her heart, but she still had to pretend to be calm:
"of course can."

She said with a normal demeanor, and continued to look forward, but from the corner of her eye, she quietly looked at the man beside her, blaming herself in her heart, whether she was a little too impatient to agree.
