Chapter 215 Rejed's Hamilton
King "Fire Leaper" Larousse III came here by pressing the bell at seven o'clock. The king has a lot of opportunities every day, and everyone understands.

And 10 minutes before the king's arrival, the king's attendant found Xia De and informed him that he would be awarded the title of knight 10 minutes later, so now he needs to urgently train on the procedures and etiquette for a while.

"No need, I've already learned it."

Xia De quickly waved his hand to refuse, and the attendant didn't ask any more questions, but let Xia De not have to go back to the banquet hall, but waited with the attendant, in case he couldn't find anyone in a while.

So the whole process proceeded in an orderly manner, and the arrival of His Majesty the King brought the atmosphere to its peak.The king and queen attended and spoke under the crystal chandelier that looked like it might be worth hundreds of mias.

Xia De listened from the sidelines, and the general meaning of his speech was that Queen Diana was safe and sound, and all plots would be thwarted. The royal family once again issued a condemnation of Carson Rik.

And after the summoned reporters turned on the chalk flashlights, which flooded the place with dazzling white light and drifting smoke, His Majesty the King talked a little about the recent case of missing children that has caused people to panic.

He just said a few words and then left temporarily. The representative of Ridwich Field reported the follow-up situation to the guests attending the banquet. The specially invited reporters had already got the speech and were looking for a suitable angle to shoot.

Tomorrow's front page headline will definitely be a photo of His Majesty the King and the safe and sound Queen Diana, and the Ridwich Field and the missing children series can be arranged to three pages.

As for the protagonist who has pre-ordered the second edition, he is looking around at the banquet hall.This is a fairly formal banquet, gentlemen and ladies are all dressed in the most appropriate attire, and even the maids and servants are uniformed.

Xia De still didn't understand whether the Miss Bayas he saw just now was dazzled or something else, but after twenty or ten minutes, he couldn't see that figure again.

The speeches of the King and the Chief of Police echoed in his ears, but Shad was too distracted to listen.The things they said were either what Shad already knew, or they were not true at all. Boring speeches are equally drowsy in any world.

He even thought that these speeches were not as interesting as the Rhodes card for a while.

He came back to his senses when he heard his name suddenly. It turned out that he had already reached the conclusion stage of the case:

"So, Mr. Hamilton, an enthusiastic citizen, and the loyal Captain Lades, assisted Ridwich Field to destroy the missing children case in the summer of 1053 in Tobesk. Mr. Hamilton even showed his devotion to the royal family during this period. Loyalty and her own bravery protected Queen Diana from the assassins."

He bowed slightly in the direction of Xia De, and the people nearby also looked over. Xia De immediately got up to return the salute, and then continued to sit down and wait for his turn.

But after that, more people quietly watched Xia De around.The young detective's good looks and relaxed posture are easy to attract people. Xia De himself did not realize this, and all his thoughts were put on the matter of "whether Miss Bayas is hallucinating or not".

The final link is to discuss meritorious deeds and rewards, and the list of awards will be read out by the king's attendants.Xia De thought in his heart that putting this link at the end was to prevent the recipient from paying attention to the previous official speech after winning the award.

There is no rule of sorting by the first letter of the name here, and the first name mentioned is directly "Shad Hamilton".The attendant read the decision aloud, and Shad stood up:
"In view of the valor and integrity shown by Mr. Shard Suren Hamilton, as well as his great loyalty to the royal family, after discussion in Parliament and deliberations with the royal family—"

A very deliberate pause, but also a good mobilization of emotions.

"Mr. Hamilton is hereby bestowed with the title 'Knight of Regard'."

The sound fell, and the banquet hall was silent for a few seconds, and then the sound wave spread from the front to the entire banquet hall.

This matter was obviously not leaked before the banquet, so when the title of knight that had not been awarded for hundreds of years was mentioned, even the most well-behaved people couldn't help talking to each other in whispers.

Everyone looked at the young man who stood up, Xia De nodded to everyone who looked at him, and everyone returned the salute one after another.Especially the young girls, those eager eyes from all directions made Xia De feel that his body temperature was rising.

【how do you feel? 】

she asked softly in his ear.

"It's pretty good. It's a good thing I didn't bring Little Mia out, otherwise that timid cat would definitely be terrified by this scene."

He was joking in his heart, but he was actually in a pretty good mood.

And at the same time as the discussion sounded, the band that had already been prepared played music, and the king and queen led dozens of people, including Miss Galina, to present Xia De with honors.

Normally, the award of titles does not require so many people, but this time it is to protect the queen, and the royal family has of course made enough gestures.

When the king, whose hairline was somewhat worrying, called Shade's name, a pair of servants laid another layer of red carpet on top of the original carpet, extending from the height where the king stood to the main entrance of the banquet hall.

Xia De tidied his clothes before walking onto the red carpet, and then walked along the red carpet to the king under the watchful eyes of the guests attending the banquet.

Everyone present looked at Xia De, but the outsider was inexplicably not nervous at all:

"That's not even as many people as there were when degrees were awarded."

He said in his heart, and then saluted according to the etiquette he learned not long ago.The attendant lowered his hands to make people quieter, and the trombone and French horn of the band made a low and majestic sound together at this time.

The flashing lights kept flashing, and King Larouse III took a long sword from the attendant beside him, and put the long sword on Shad's shoulder.This action was deliberately paused for three seconds, so that the reporters could take pictures for tomorrow's second edition.

The subsequent process seemed quite boring to Shad. The king announced the decision of the royal family to bestow the title of knight, and encouraged Shad to continue to show his loyalty and bravery.

Then handed over the Knight Medal and Saber to Xia De, and the two stood together and were photographed by the reporter.

Xia De noticed that the middle-aged king next to him must not be as tall as himself, but he was wearing a pair of high-heeled boots with sapphire buttons on the boots.

With the current black-and-white photography technology and newspaper printing technology, tomorrow's newspaper photos will definitely not let the public discover the secret of the king's boots. In this way, Larousse III wearing the crown is more important than Shad without the hat. a little higher.

"It turns out that just now Miss Servitt repeatedly told me not to wear a hat, and it was for this reason."

Xia De thought in his mind, and then he heard the old videographer behind the camera cover shouting to remind him to look at the camera.

Thinking of the picture of Mia running to the door on time every morning, reminding him to get goat milk, a natural smile appeared on the corner of Xia De's mouth.

Flashes blazed, and burning smoke rose into the sky.The banquet hall was brightly lit, and the nobles of the so-called upper class applauded and congratulated.

Shad stood shoulder to shoulder with the king, maintaining a steady smile.The light shone on them, the shadows swayed under their feet, the smoke drifted over their heads, and the waves of sound hit them. The warm atmosphere reached its peak at this moment.

Everything in the banquet hall seemed to be moving, but they were the only ones who were motionless amidst the interlacing of light and shadow.

This scene will be remembered by people for many years.
