Chapter 1808: Green Lake and the Five Members of the Group

~10 min read 1,951 words

Xia De did not stay long at Rose Manor. After breakfast, he said goodbye to the ladies of the Cavendish family and returned to the Green Lake Hotel with Little Mia.

Pushing the door to enter the hotel, just as he was thinking about what to do today, he saw Luweiya, Priest August, Duo Luo Xi, and Doctor Schneider sitting together at a table in the corner of the first floor.

The table that was originally close to the wall had been moved to create space for people to sit. Luweiya and Duo Luo Xi sat on one side, while Priest August and Doctor Schneider sat opposite each other, so Xia De sat opposite the two girls.

The five people greeted each other naturally, as if this were still Tobesk. People with their own secrets just treated this moment as they would any other time:

"What a strange feeling, that everyone is sitting together outside of Tobesk."

Xia De commented, putting the cat that had eaten its fill on his lap.

The Doctor put down the newspaper in his hand and nodded:

"I was preparing to go downstairs for breakfast this morning. As soon as I opened the door, I saw the priest passing by my door, and I was startled."

Priest August arrived here very late last night, and the Doctor had already rested by then. The old priest looked in very good spirits and smiled, shaking his head:

"I didn't expect it either. I was preparing to go downstairs for breakfast, and when the door next door opened, the person who walked out was the Doctor."

"The point is, what's going on with Duo Luo Xi and this princess? When can we meet? I need to see both of them at the same time to confirm if they are candidates. The current situation is not clear, and no one knows what will happen in the end. The position of the Chosen cannot be vacant. If the previous candidates really all died, Duo Luo Xi and this princess..."

"From the current point of view, that is the case."

The blonde writer added, then winked playfully at Gus. Luweiya was very interested in this scene.

"Actually, I am the most surprised. I arrived ten minutes earlier than the detective. Pushing the door open, I saw the three of them sitting there looking at me. I took a step back to confirm I hadn't gone to the wrong place before I dared to walk in."

Zhang Ze said softly:

Duo Luo Xi said with a smile, and the old priest shook his head helplessly:

"I am not a superstitious person, but the fact that the five of us have all arrived here is not a good sign."

"Now several high-tier professors from Saint Byrons are in Schneider City, including Miss Dannister. Coincidentally, I should also go to visit, so leave this matter to me."

Luweiya shook her head:

"Don't make fun of me. I am in the church choir and am very well-liked by the children. So, the Diviner was summoned by the Association, the Doctor came to purchase materials, the writer encountered an accident, and the detective was originally active here. So, do I also need to explain the reason why I came here?"

As for Dehuazi and Megan, they had also heard the name of this famous writer. While sighing that there was another girl around Gus, they thought in their hearts that although the sisters were still relative newcomers, they could not lose in momentum this time.

Duo Luo Xi looked unexpectedly behind Gus at the extremely beautiful lady with brown hair. She smiled and took the box, and listened to Gus's introduction:

"Don't be here, don't be here! Let's go out to eat, go out to eat!"

The Doctor asked Duo Luo Xi again, and the latter thought for a while:

Gus said, and Luweiya nodded. She knew that Gus was very cautious about such things:

Luweiya raised an interesting question, and Gus calculated in his heart:

"But since everyone is here, no matter who needs help, the others in the group cannot shirk without a special reason. Speaking of which, it seems it hasn't been long since the last group mission... The last time was indeed a bit dangerous, but the time before that we acted as a group, I remember it was Lake View Manor... um, is it that dangerous?"

"But since you are here, let's deal with our respective matters first. For the priest's matter, he will investigate the situation himself first. Once there is a clue and help is needed, we can all help. Luweiya will probably cooperate with the Divination Association for a while, and the Doctor is preparing to make a high-difficulty alchemical item recently, so he will be very busy. As for Duo Luo Xi, you will live here recently. The bosses here are my friends, and their chef's skills are very good. You can walk around Schneider City more, but pay attention to safety. This city... is very dangerous."

"I was even more surprised. When I went upstairs half an hour later, I saw the Doctor and the priest sitting together. I thought I had... accidentally gone the wrong way again."

"Doctor, you went from the fourth tier when the detective joined the group last year to the first tier now, isn't that also very fast? Not to mention, the detective here is faster than all of us."

The five people had different expressions:

"Since I'm already here, there's no need to leave. It just so happens that I've long wanted to go out for material, and now the two banks of Schneider are very interesting. Spies and detectives are the best combination."

Hearing the priest say this, Doctor Beisike understood:

Gus had mentioned the situation of Dehuazi and Megan, so Duo Luo Xi and Lei Qianya, who had "two-in-one" tendencies, had always wanted to meet the Witch.

"Now that our entire group has left the station, if the Academy investigates... it will be very troublesome."

Except for Gus, the others were all shocked, and the Doctor even said:

After he finished speaking, everyone looked at Gus, and Gus nodded knowingly:

"It won't be a long time, at most two weeks, or even one week."

The Doctor said softly, and as for how the people at the table understood this sentence, that was only known to each person in their own hearts.

"I am preparing to advance to the fourth tier."

The former grave robber Gus was thinking about was just bringing the soul of a little girl downstairs. He walked while yawning, probably because he didn't sleep well last night. He also saw Gus sitting by the wall talking to a group of strangers, so he didn't take the initiative to talk. The floating Last Wang Hou saw the kind old man in a robe look up at her, so the girl shuddered violently and pulled Durut Giles to go outside to eat:

"In a while, you need to go to Tobesk to get my luggage and manuscripts, so that I can stay here with peace of mind."

Seeing Gus walking into the door carrying two large suitcases, the cat immediately ran toward Gus. After being held up by Gus, it had the momentum of not being separated from him for the whole day.

Everyone here knew that Gus liked to run around, so they weren't surprised by Duo Luo Xi's words. But the Doctor thought of another thing:

"As long as you have confidence yourself, it's fine. But I came to find you today, not because I guessed Duo Luo Xi's arrival in advance. You know about last night's incident, right? But I'm not here to talk about that either. The Church has probably already solved the trouble. I'm looking for you today regarding the Unknowable-level relic 【Fate Pedestal】."

The purple-eyed Diviner was very serious:

"This is Miss Dehuazi Green Lake. Island Pharmacy is her industry. Duo Luo Xi, haven't you always wanted to chat with her?"

Duo Luo Xi had already written a list of clothes and manuscripts for Gus to bring for her, and Gus immediately returned to Tobesk to handle this matter. The other four members of the group continued to chat idly. When Gus returned to the Green Lake Hotel with two huge suitcases at ten o'clock in the morning, the Doctor had already taken Priest August out to tour the Schneider riverside, and Luweiya and Duo Luo Xi were chatting in the room holding Little Mia. It could be seen that the cat was not very happy.

"The feather I used to separate and fuse for you, actually... was requested by me for you."

"Yes, there is an important material on the island over there, but the detective said it is very dangerous, so I haven't thought about how to get it yet, but it shouldn't be a difficult task."

"Priest, didn't you just advance at the end of last year?"

Although Gus and Lei Qianya "rested" in the guest room of Rose Manor last night, it was actually the time for three people. As for Duo Luo Xi's abrupt departure from Tobesk, that didn't need to be considered whether it would cause a disturbance. No matter how famous she was, she was different from Lei Qianya, who had the status of a princess. As long as she claimed to be out for material, and then Gus brought back a handwritten letter from her to Tobesk to give to her friends and family, no one would doubt her whereabouts.

Gus could only answer like this, but he also knew it was abnormal. If it were just Duo Luo Xi alone, it might be explained as bad luck, but it was unbelievable that she and Lei Qianya encountered such a thing almost at the same time, just like Last Wang Hou and Durut Giles appearing in the circus together.

"So writer, do you intend to stay here for a while, or take the train back?"

Gus said, and handed the cat on his lap to her. Duo Luo Xi happily took Mia:

Gus summarized for everyone:

"So, our writer friend came here because of an accident?"

"Meow~"

The others calmed down, but the Doctor, the priest, and Duo Luo Xi still had to hide their identities and could not appear in public.

"So, are you also here to find materials?"

Gus had also talked about this topic with Duo Luo Xi last night, and Duo Luo Xi made the decision after referring to Gus's advice. She could also feel that her and Lei Qianya's arrival was absolutely abnormal. Even if they left immediately, they would most likely come back, so it was better to stay and make preparations. And if the premonition was wrong and they were really just unlucky, then living in a Schneider hotel wouldn't cause any problems.

"Priest, you scared others."

"I will arrange it. You don't need to worry about this matter. I made preparations a long time ago."

The Witch immediately became serious, and Duo Luo Xi invited her to sit in the room. Taking advantage of Duo Luo Xi and Dehuazi talking, Luweiya gave Gus a look, and then the two went to the room where Gus lived to talk.

"Although for various reasons, we happened to sit here by coincidence."

The priest said very easily, so the Doctor, Luweiya, who probably guessed some things, and Duo Luo Xi all expressed that they could help.

"So, how long will you stay in the Schneider area?"

"Um? So fast?"

He looked at Gus, and seeing Gus nod, he took out the reason he had prepared: ===== CHAPTER 1809 =====
