Chapter 1736 The third landing on the island

In fact, Shad was more cautious than most.He also knew that the re-landing on the island tomorrow Wednesday would most likely not go smoothly, so before setting off on Wednesday morning, he carefully prepared the items to be brought - which naturally included important props such as angel feathers.

After kissing Luvia who was holding Little Miya goodbye at the basement door, he walked towards the hidden wall.

Because he was worried that he would not be able to deal with the affairs on the island before the evening, Xia De set off quite early.It is raining lightly in Tobesk City today, but it is also raining in Green Lake City.

It hasn't been raining much, at least not as much as last week, but that doesn't seem like a good sign either.

Little John, who was in the trash can in the back alley of the hotel, hadn't "go out" early in the morning, Shade didn't bother him and the puppy to rest, left some food and left.When they walked around to the main entrance of the hotel, they saw that the carriage from Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals did not appear, so they knew that Megan hadn't come yet.

He opened the door and walked into the hotel, and greeted Mr. Soren Green behind the counter.A few minutes later, the hotel owner came to Xia De who was sitting in a familiar position with a tray and a newspaper in person.

After putting the morning tea and newspaper in front of him, instead of leaving, Mr. Green pulled a chair and sat on the side of the table.

Xia De was not surprised, took a sip from his teacup, and then unfolded the newspaper to check the news.

Mr. Soren Green hesitated for a moment before speaking:
"Aunt Megan will be here in about 10 minutes."

Shad's eyes moved away from Miss Galina's photo on the front page - the Duchess looked out of the photo with a very serious expression, and then looked sideways at him:

"Have you finally admitted that you and Ms. Helena Green are descendants of the fourth generation's youngest daughter, Maria Edwards?"

The man in the apron shook his head helplessly:

"Didn't you already see it? And I believe, you can see it too, we can see it, you can see it."

This is a long sentence, but the logic is fairly simple:
"Yes, I was going to wait for Meghan to tell me."

His gaze shifted to the newspaper again, and the headline on the front page reported that the second batch of Kingdom negotiating delegation led by Miss Galina would arrive tonight.The news showed the location of the train yesterday evening, so if nothing unexpected happened, they would definitely be there tonight.In this way, Xia Deming will be able to see Galina, Tifa and Agelina early on.

"Aunt really intends to take the initiative to explain all this to you, but"

He carefully glanced back at the door of the hotel, to make sure that the brown-haired elder would not rush in immediately:

"However, after discussing with my sister, I'd like to disclose something to you in advance, in case you may not be able to accept it at that time. Megan and Aunt Audrey."

"I know it all."

Xia De interrupted him, instead of looking at the expression on his face, he continued to read the newspaper:
"One body, two souls, or something like that. I know, since she said she's going to tell me herself, let her tell. I won't be surprised, I've seen similar situations."

"Is that right?"

Mr. Soren Green was a little puzzled, but as an ordinary person, he couldn't accept too much knowledge of ring magicians and mysticism, so he really didn't have common sense in this area:
"Now that you know. One more thing, my aunt is actually"

"The Council of Witches."

Xia De said softly, ignoring Mr. Soren Green's astonished expression:
"Why are you so surprised? Did I say something weird?"

The newspaper was turned to the next page by him:
"I can even know that she has one body and two souls. What does it matter if I know her origin? Don't worry, I don't mind that she was wanted by the Orthodox Church, and I don't mind that she has done some wrong things in a mad state. I believe Meghan and Audrey are good girls."

"No, my sister and I are worried that you will mind the witch."

"What do you mind? A lady with charisma can only approach me as a man. Why do you mind this kind of thing?"

Shad glanced at him curiously, and Mr. Soren Green opened his mouth slightly, but he didn't know what to say.

"But since you want to talk to me, I do have some things I'm curious about."

"Excuse me."

Mr. Green nodded immediately. The conversation planned by him and his sister was completely unexpected.

"How did you get discovered by Megan and Audrey? Also, is there any special reason for you to run the hotel here?"

Mr. Green sighed slightly:

"It's about the grandmother. In fact, the grandmother, Maria Edwards, never left the Green Lake area. Yes, her three brothers left separately, but the grandmother chose to stay. The island did not survive. Grandma stayed in Green Lake City, then got married, had children, and lived an ordinary life. Probably because she was the youngest, her grandmother had the best relationship with her uncle and grandfather, Alphonse Edwards, and they never broke up. We lost contact, so the aunts have known us from a long time ago."

Xia De suddenly realized, and Mr. Green lowered his voice and added:
"In fact, when my sister and I were born, our young aunts hugged us."

This immediately exposed the ages of Megan and Audrey, but Shad would not be foolish enough to point this out:
"That's why you have such a good relationship with Megan?"

"Yes, as for running the hotel, it's actually a legacy from my grandmother. The hotel has existed since my grandmother's generation. There is no particular reason for running this place, but my grandmother hopes that future generations will not give up this property. Green Lake Hotel In fact, it is very good, although it is a bit busy, but the income is also very high.”

"Did your grandmother ever say that there is a special reason for not giving up this property?"

Mr. Green nodded slightly:

"Grandmother said that she hoped that if one day, the descendants of one of the four siblings returned to the family homeland, at least there would be a house, a home, to welcome them back and make the family happy. Sit comfortably at the table and have a meal.”

Even foreigners without relatives were a little moved at this time, and Mr. Green then raised his head and said:

"Mr. Watson, my sister and I hope that you can treat Meghan and Aunt Audrey better. She has suffered enough over the years. We know that she is very powerful, but in fact she has always been lonely."

"Are you worried that I'm a bad person?"

Xia De asked in surprise, Mr. Green shook his head slightly:

"My sister and I are just ordinary people, we don't know much, and we can't do much for my aunt"

"I see what you mean, watch this."

As he spoke, he took out his business card from his pocket, which was the business card of the Hamilton Detective Agency and handed it to him:

"I was going to spend a few days, but this week, and tell them who I am. You should know the name."

Mr. Green took the name to read, and then looked at Shad in surprise:

"Hamilton's Detective Stories?"

"Do you play Rhodes? If you do, you should know my deck."

Xia De handed him his Rhodes deck for inspection, and continued with the innkeeper's increasingly surprised expression:
"I'm the detective. By the way, I'm glad you know me because of the novel and not because of Lord's Card or the scandal."

"But how could you be."

He was holding the deck of cards, his face full of doubts.

Xia De lowered his voice:
"Paradise Island Pharmaceuticals can do it, why can't I? It's not surprising, I'm just a second-rate detective with no business."

He put the newspaper down:

"Don't tell them yet, I still want to keep some mystery."

In fact, it was to cooperate with Miss Galina. The red-haired witch had been looking forward to revealing the identities of the two of them for a long time.

The hotel door was pushed open, and a lady with brown shawl hair walked in.Mr. Green hurriedly stuffed the business card into his pocket, returned the deck to Shad, and stood up together with Shad.

"Good morning, gentlemen, what are you talking about?"

Megan asked curiously.

"I'm talking about Lord's Card and detective novels. I'm a writer traveling the Old World."

The first half of the sentence is true, and the second half is false.

"Are you really a writer?"

Megan said in surprise, Mr. Soren Green held the tray and said nothing, Xia De thought for a moment:
"At least for now, I'm still the writer John Watson."

Now that Megan has arrived, the two immediately set off to prepare for landing on the island.This time I still took a boat, but instead of starting from the Duin River, I first took a carriage to Pukhov Village on the north bank of Green Lake, and then set off on a prepared boat.

Because the departure time was very early, it was only eight o'clock in the morning when we arrived at Pukhov Village.The rainy weather made the usual bustling Pukhov village quite deserted, but it could be seen that the tavern was very lively.

After disguising, Shad and Megan passed through the village with an umbrella, and when they came to the pier, they saw a magnificent steam and sail hybrid boat sailing towards the middle of the great lake:
"The boat of the Church of Peace has been patrolling and monitoring the lake near here these days."

Megan said, and motioned for Shad to follow her.

It can be seen that after last week's "treatment", Meghan's strength has recovered very well.Although the eleventh level has not been fully restored, the power of the high-ring warlock can already be used more.Therefore, considering the blockade of the church and the complicated situation on the island, she did not let her followers follow this time, but took Xia De to find the boat parked in the reeds. Only she and Xia De Set off by boat towards Central Lake.

This time the boat is not a steam-powered boat, but the most traditional paddle wooden boat.This boat was chosen because the original wooden boat was more suitable for conversion.

During the long week of waiting to land on the island, Meghan rallied her followers to remodel the ship.Various ceremonial arrays were condensed and engraved on the bottom of the boat, and even the oars were modified and processed, so that the boat itself could be regarded as a complete alchemy item.

　PS: Tickets are requested at the beginning of the month. There is no double monthly ticket activity this month, so there is no need to save it until the end of the month.
