Chapter 1343

Captain Woody also stood with his hands behind his back, blowing the cold wind of late winter, looking at the children on the river. His hands were holding the cane, and his standing posture was quite stable:

"No, I think you are the person who can kill Osenfort. Although I dare not go to the church, I have also looked for others over the years, trying to take revenge on Osenfort. As soon as they heard about the ancient demon, they were all scared and never contacted me again, but only you are different. Although you look young, the arrogance on you is something others cannot compare with."

"Arrogance?"

Xia De smiled:

"Give me the photos and letters, I will solve Osenfort. If possible, I can also try to deal with your affairs."

At that time, I can lead the doctor to take a look. Doctor Shi Nai De definitely doesn't mind having one more target.

"Photos and letters... save that child, and I will give them to you."

The old man said.

"What?"

Xia De raised his eyebrows, and then saw Captain Woody's eyes looking at the children on the ice, counting down in his mouth:

"Three, two, one."

The sound fell, and with a very slight cracking sound, one of the boys fell straight into the ice hole. This is not the captain playing any tricks, this should also be the ability he obtained from the demon, knowing who will fall into the water:

"Oh, I just told them not to play on the ice casually!"

Because of worrying that the hole in the ice would further expand, the other children wanted to save their friends, but didn't dare to get close to the hole. And Xia De had already run over at this time. He told the children not to gather around, and then raised his foot to stomp the larger area of the ice surface, making the area of the ice hole enough for himself to pass through, and then jumped in neatly.

A few bubbles emerged from the water surface, and there was no movement anymore, and the slightly older children ran to the village to find adults quickly. When people from the village on the other side of the river rushed over with floating objects and ropes, Xia De had already transferred the boy to the shore together with the man leading the donkey he met at the mill door, and the experienced Woody captain was performing rescue.

Fortunately, Xia De's speed was very fast at that time, and the boy didn't stay underwater for too long. So after coughing a few times and spitting out several mouthfuls of water, he woke up.

The villagers gathered around happily, and the boy's mother, a thin woman holding a spatula in her right hand, hugged him and cried loudly.

The wet Xia De and Woody captain squeezed out of the crowd together, and then walked toward the manor again:

"I didn't expect that you promised to give me those letters and photos, and actually only used such a request... Is this considered kindness? To make up for the mistakes you made in your life?"

Xia De asked, but the old captain shook his head:

"I have the ability to see if someone will die in the water in the near future, and seeing it means certain death. Only in very few cases, and people with very high abilities, can reverse those deaths I have already discovered. So far, I have only encountered this situation twice. The first time was a priest who could walk on the water and saved a soldier who fell into the water with the New World pioneering legion; the second time was a mermaid whose scales all glowed, dragging a girl who fell into the water to the reef. And you, are the third one."

"Trust my ability?"

"Yes, take the letters and photos. If you kill Osenfort, please burn those parchments. There is no need for them to exist anymore."

The crowd by the river was still making loud noises, the boy's mother was preparing to go back with the boy, the boy had to wipe his body dry as soon as possible to prevent catching a cold, and colds and fevers were quite dangerous in this era. Of course, people didn't forget to thank the old captain who had gone far and the unknown young man loudly. The old captain didn't turn around, just raised his hand and waved behind him.

The ice cracking just now was not because of the children's jumping, but because the temperature was no longer enough to support the ice thickness of the fragile part of the ice surface. The temperature was rising bit by bit, and the snow that covered the entire winter in Randall Valley also showed signs of melting.

Spring is probably really coming.

Xia De, who was soaked all over, got the letters and photos, and then hurried to take a carriage back to the Church of the Forgotten and then returned home. And the coachman who carried him was still curious about what Xia De went to do, and Xia De answered that he went to the river to touch fish.

After taking a hot bath at home, he put on pajamas, hugged Mia on the sofa in front of the fireplace, and checked the photos and letters in the firelight of the fireplace.

Although the old captain detained them, they were still preserved properly. In the black and white photos, Stone and Hela, who were photographed together, looked quite young. Stone Osenfort looked nervous, while Hela Watson was smiling like a flower, and the performance of the two was completely different from the ones Xia De knew.

There are three photos in total, one is a group photo taken in a photo studio, one is a group photo taken on the ship, and one is a single photo of Hela Osenfort. And there are five letters in total, all written in 1847 of the General Calendar. That year, Stone Osenfort was still on the ship but had obtained the demon summoning materials, and the old captain also suspected that the thief was Osenfort.

Xia De arranged those letters in chronological order, and the five letters were written between April and July of that year. Mrs. Hela's handwriting was quite beautiful. In the letter, she looked forward to their next meeting after the ship docked, looking forward to a beautiful love and future life.

She mentioned in the letter that Stone Osenfort seemed to have told her before that he had recently found a way to make a fortune, and would soon have money to buy back his family's old house and let her businessman father agree to their wedding. And Hela in the letter expressed great worry about this, she probably suspected that Stone Osenfort had taken an evil path, so she also persuaded him not to take risks.

【... I have saved a sum of private money for myself over the years. When we really want to get married, you can use this money for emergency...】

She said this in the letter, and Xia De also understood why the old stonemason of the Stonemason Society and Captain Woody both thought she loved him very much.

With the current situation, it is already difficult to say what the source of the tragedy is. It was just that when Xia De put away the last letter and looked at the firelight of the fireplace, he vaguely saw Randall Valley city burning with a big fire, and saw countless souls wailing in it:

"No one is worth pitying."

At 11:30 noon, the knocking on the door downstairs meant that Yin Yi Yi Lu Na had arrived.

Xia De changed out of his pajamas and was ready to go out, so he took Mia directly downstairs, opened the door and welcomed Yin Yi Yi Lu Na:

"Good noon, you are really punctual. I booked a restaurant yesterday, do you want to come in and rest for a while? Or go directly to lunch?"

Xia De asked.

Yin Yi Yi Lu Na, who seemed to have light makeup, stood outside the door somewhat cautiously. She looked at Xia De's attire with a smile on her face:

"Go directly to lunch, we can chat at the dining table. Oh, my departure time is evening, so don't worry."

"Okay, just tell you about the story I learned today."

Xia De then picked up the cat at his feet and prepared to go out, while "she" in his ear reminded softly:

【Praise her.】

"Forgot to say just now, Yin Yi Yi Lu Na, you are really beautiful today."

Xia De then said with a smile, a light red blush appeared on Yin Yi Yi Lu Na's face, she turned and walked down the steps, waiting for Xia De to close the door.

【To be honest, I have been using the source-switching app to read books and follow updates recently. The source-switching is fast, the reading voices are many, and. huanyuanapp. Android and Apple are both available.】

However, before Xia De changed his shoes, he felt the badge on his chest start to burn. Sure enough, when he also walked out of the house, Miss Jia Jia Lin Na's carriage stopped at the door of No. 6 St. Deran Square, and Tifa poked her head out of the carriage window:

"Good noon, Xia De, good noon, Miss Beiya."

Yin Yi Yi Lu Na had a bad premonition, and the elegant maid had already opened the carriage door at this time:

"The young lady knows that Miss Beiya is leaving today, so she invites you to have lunch with her. The meal has been prepared, and the young lady is waiting for you."

An unhappy expression appeared on the seventeen-year-old girl's face, but she couldn't get angry at the maid in front of her, because Tifa didn't do anything wrong.

So Yin Yi Yi Lu Na turned to look at Xia De, although she didn't speak, her emotions were written directly on her face.

"Tifa, I have already booked a restaurant."

So Xia De said, showing an apologetic expression to Tifa, and the maid still had a smile on her face:

"The young lady said she wants to give Miss Beiya some things to help her act in Randall Valley."

So Yin Yi Yi Lu Na could only board the carriage unhappily and go to the manor outside the city with Tifa and Xia De. And after arriving at the manor, the sumptuous lunch was indeed prepared in the restaurant.

Miss Jia Jia Lin Na sat at the head of the dining table, Xia De sat on her left hand, and Yin Yi Yi Lu Na sat on her right hand.

Actually, Yin Yi Yi Lu Na had specifically come to the manor to see Miss Jia Jia Lin Na yesterday to inform her that she was going to Randall Valley, so Yin Yi Yi Lu Na thought at this time that the Duchess deliberately destroyed her dating time.

But in fact, Miss Jia Jia Lin Na really had something to say.

Seeing that Xia De was fighting with his cat, preventing that cat from peeking at the steak that had just been served, and had no time to join the conversation for the time being, Miss Jia Jia Lin Na said to Yin Yi Yi Lu Na:

"Beiya, Xia De should have told you very clearly about the Randall Valley affair. The situation this time is different from the past. I expect to go to Randall Valley around next weekend. And before that, you need to do some things, do some things for the Witch Council."

"Miss Jia Jia Lin Na, how are you going?"

Xia De asked while restraining the cat with his arm.

"Sylvia opens the door."

The red-haired witch said concisely:

"Since she invented that thing and obtained the Enlightenment - 【Weaving】 spirit rune, the space power has also been enhanced. Sylvia will go to Randall Valley one step ahead, and then hold a large-scale ritual with Bernice to directly unfold the space channel for us to pass."
