Chapter 1061

Just as Xia De said, no one could believe that the Ace Agent, the "Gray Hawk" who had done countless great things, rested in such a corner unknown to anyone. His story, everything in his past, no one would have a chance to know again.

"Margaret, please say something for Detective Spailuo."

"Gray Hawk, I represent the Anjou family, thank you for your contribution."

The princess said softly, reaching out to touch the tombstone:

"I also represent Xia De, thank you... Please rest in peace in a foreign land, may your soul rest in peace forever. In the name of the royal family, although I cannot give you glory and wealth, the heroic spirits of the ancestors of the Anjou family are with you. Your story is over, God bless your soul."

She softly praised the True God "Lady of Creation", and respectfully drew the holy emblem under the cloak button on her chest. Afterwards, she took off her ring and handed it to Xia De. Xia De dug a deep pit beside the grave and buried this princess's ring beside Detective Spailuo. This was the honor he deserved.

Margaret looked at Xia De:

"I, in the name of Margaret Anjou, appoint you as Gray Hawk."

"You are just a princess, you don't have such power."

Xia De corrected, then pointed to himself:

"I don't need your appointment."

He said very seriously:

"Because I am the Gray Hawk who inherited everything. But from now on, Gray Hawk will only be loyal to you, my princess."

He bent down and bowed to Princess Margaret, and the princess nodded reservedly:

"Seen the loyal agent, now let's go back."

Without looking at the former detective resting in the land of a foreign country again, the two turned and walked towards the snowy night.

"Do you know, Xia De, if it weren't for the fact that kissing in front of someone else's tombstone is very impolite, just now when you called me 'my princess', I wanted to continue kissing you."

Only the fragmented whispers of the two came from the darkness.

"In the carriage back to Canary Manor, you can do this... can you return the note of me reporting the bomb to me? Maybe I can use that note to exchange for many things for myself."

The girl wearing a hood in the darkness patted Xia De:

"Leaving tomorrow, will you miss me?"

The young detective's light laughter could almost no longer be heard:

"Perhaps not long after, Margaret, you will see me in a place that surprises you."

"Is that so? I just hope now... the carriage on the way back can be slower."

When leaving Canary Manor, it was 7:34 PM, and when the carriage stopped at a position one street away from the manor, the time was 9:56 PM on Tuesday night, which was quite different from the time Xia De originally estimated.

But even though a lot of time had been delayed, they still did not return to the manor immediately. At the princess's request, Xia De, who could only kiss the princess, kissed the girl from the south who was about to return to her country again in the snow.

And when they were preparing to follow the original route and climb back over the wall of the back garden, they unexpectedly met Sir Pulixia who looked like he had also returned from outside. As a member of the visiting group, it stood to reason that he should not be able to leave the banquet easily either.

Sir Pulixia walked in a hurry, not even noticing Xia De and the two who had entered the garden a step ahead. At this time, the two were doing their final farewell kiss. Being frightened by the Sir, they hid in the corner of the garden watching the Sir pass by in a hurry. The latter did not notice them.

"What did the Sir go to do so late?"

Xia De thought in surprise, but Margaret kissed him again, requesting a final farewell:

"Don't go to see me off tomorrow, knight. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear the separation."

She pushed Xia De, as if to give herself the courage to separate from him:

"In summer, I hope to see you in Willendale... Goodbye... remember to wipe your lipstick."

Saying that, she left in a hurry with red eyes, leaving only Xia De, who was carrying the suitcase, standing there.

He sighed slightly, turning the suitcase into a toy in the darkness and putting it away:

"1000 pounds."

Walking forward a few steps, a brand new figure flashed out. Purple eyes seemed to be shining in the lightless garden. Luweiya probably just entered the garden, because there was no snow on her shoulders.

"I just seemed to see Princess Margaret leaving with tears in her eyes."

Luweiya said with a light chuckle, then stared at his eyes and added:

"Don't say that the wound on your lips that is about to heal has nothing to do with her."

"It has to do with her. She said, let me be the lover she can only kiss, and I am still Gray Hawk, the Gray Hawk only loyal to her."

A mocking expression appeared on Luweiya's face:

"Another girl who wants both. Staring at the position of a witch apprentice, but still entangled with men. If she hadn't met you, her ending would be destined to be a tragedy. Young girls never understand that being too greedy will only harm themselves."

Xia De was silent for a while:

"Sorry."

"Why apologize to me? If I couldn't tolerate this kind of thing, I should have taught you a lesson when I discovered Princess Lei Qianya Cavendish and Dorothy. They don't understand how lucky they are to meet you in an impossible probability, but I understand."

She hummed, hugged her chest with both hands and stood side by side with Xia De, looking at the direction Princess Margaret left, letting the snowflakes dye her hair white:

"This is also good. At least we have a loyal and reliable secular ally in Carsonrick. A lover who can only kiss... hum, really greedy."

After the mockery, she looked at Xia De again:

"The dance is about to start. Tonight, you should have no other dance partners, right?"

Princess Lei Qianya was attending an important meeting at the Yodel Palace tonight, which was said to be related to His Majesty the King's public speech at the end of the year. It seemed that the statistical data had gone wrong; Miss Xierweiya could not dance with Xia De on such a public occasion, even if she really wanted to do so; and Princess Margaret, who had just left, had already made a final farewell.

"Of course not."

Luweiya nodded and asked somewhat arrogantly again:

"Don't be like that. Is dancing with me an unhappy thing? Xia De, I just hope that if you ever intend to become the ruler behind the scenes of the Old Continent, remember to notify me in advance. I also need to prepare to manage this home."

"Sorry, what?"

"Nothing."

She grabbed Xia De's hand:

"Let's go, let's dance. Also, I'm staying at your house tonight..."

Staring at Xia De's purple eyes, they were actually shining:

"Remember to tell me what you did to that princess in the two hours you were away."

(Iluna is praying...)

Princess Margaret's visiting group finally left on Wednesday morning.

Xia De followed the agreement and did not go to Tobesk Railway Station to see the princess off, but stood on the side of the tracks outside the railway station with Luweiya, watching the train drive past them and towards the distance.

"Let's go back."

Xia De said to the purple-eyed girl. The snow last night lasted until midnight, and it was no longer falling at this time. But even so, standing outside in this weather was still not a good idea.

"I just didn't expect that you really wouldn't go to say a final goodbye."

Luweiya's complexion was good today.

Xia De looked at the direction the train left from afar:

"The steam airship will probably land in Huntington City on Saturday morning. At that time, I can even go to welcome her. Why say goodbye?"

Turning around and leaving with Luweiya:

"Continuing the topic just now, you chatted so much with Miss Xierweiya at the banquet last night. It's a pity, she is not the Chosen One?"

"Yes, but it's a pity, she is not. But this lady is indeed quite intelligent. Perhaps you should accept becoming her apprentice. This will be very helpful to you."

Luweiya also sighed. The two bypassed the low wall on the side of the station and returned to the street to prepare to take a carriage back:

"The two known ones are still Princess Lei Qianya Pulixia and the Vice President of the Truth Society. This Chosen One is really hard to choose."

Xia De also agreed with her opinion.

Getting on the carriage at the street corner, Xia De did not let the coachman take them back to St. Deran Square, but let the coachman take them to Mr. Book's library.

Two days ago on Monday, Xia De and Sir Pulixia, who had already boarded the train, recovered the 《Book of Fools》 there. Xia De had promised to find time to visit that unlucky book collector.

Luweiya had also heard Xia De talk about this matter, and even knew that Xia De had obtained an artifact book, intending to give it to her as a Year-End Festival gift.

The carriage soon reached its destination. Just after stopping at the intersection, before Xia De could walk out of the carriage, he heard the coachman's surprised voice:

"Oh, what happened here?"

"What's wrong?"

Xia De, who jumped off the carriage, looked up, and was surprised to find that the location of the original library had been burned into ruins. Smoke was still rising from the ruins, and the buildings on both sides of the library were also severely damaged. Obviously, the fire had just been extinguished not long ago.

The smell of burning was unusually pungent, it was very messy everywhere, and the ground had frozen in large areas.

The fire engine pulled by four black horses was parked in front of the ruins. The hose mouth of the red-painted fire water pump driven by the twin-cylinder steam engine carried on the carriage was still dripping water onto the muddy ground.

The air was cold but very moist. The city firefighters wearing scarlet heavy uniforms were still checking the ignition point in the ruins, while the police on both sides of the street were inquiring about the situation from the neighbors. The onlookers were watching all this with great interest, while the fat boss of the shop next door was crying and complaining about the injustice of fate. Even passersby would stop for a while and turn their heads to check the situation here, and the idlers discussing this disaster loudly in Tobesk accents had already let Luweiya know what happened here:

"Fire?"

Luweiya got off the carriage, stood beside the shocked Xia De, and frowned slightly looking at this scene in front of her.
