Chapter 187: With Miss Miss Jia Lin Na

Xia De was also ready to say goodbye to Mr. Director Anluosi, but remembered one thing. He had been thinking about this thing all afternoon:

"Has Mrs. Cook's child been found?"

Miss Tifa Servet, the maid beside him, smiled and shook her head when she heard this question. The detective was indeed this kind of person, while Mr. Director Anluosi was stunned:

"Who is... oh, that middle-aged woman? Found. The police raided that alley and found three missing children. The woman you mentioned was crying directly at that time. The whereabouts of more children are still being investigated. This is the biggest case in Tobesk this summer. With the few people arrested this time, there will definitely be an answer."

"That's really great."

Xia De breathed a sigh of relief. He even took a shot to find that child. If he hadn't found it in the end, it would have been really terrible.

Although Mrs. Cook couldn't give him any generous reward, the huge satisfaction Xia De got from this matter was enough to compensate for the time spent.

"Hamilton, you..."

Mr. Director Anluosi was ready to leave, but before opening the door, he turned to look at Xia De again. The middle-aged man smiled at him, and this smile was the most real of the two meetings:

"I am not a life mentor for young people, but people like you are really rare. I inquired, you just met that woman today, and you decided to help her... Agents don't need compassion. Fortunately, you are not an agent."

He nodded to Xia De:

"Young people are really good, with a bright future. If there is anything, I will contact you. Pay attention to resting at home these days. If necessary, write directly to that place."

After speaking, he left without looking back. His footsteps were much lighter compared to the heaviness when he walked into the door.

Until seven o'clock in the evening, Xia De was still waiting. Fortunately, the people here prepared dinner for him and specially arranged a place for dining. During this period, Miss Tifa Servet followed Xia De the whole time, but did not eat with Xia De.

Xia De also tried to invite her to sit down together, but the maid just smiled and shook her head.

On the way back from the temporary restaurant to the waiting room, they brushed shoulders with a group of middle-aged gentlemen with very strange accents. They were complaining that they had been waiting for a day and had not yet received an audience. It seemed that King Larrus III was really very busy.

Not long after returning to that waiting room, someone came to visit Xia De again. This time it was Wang Hou Diana and Miss Miss Jia Lin Na. The Wang Hou's age was the same as the King's, both much older than Miss Miss Jia Lin Na. Although Wang Hou Diana herself was also a beautiful woman, when standing with Miss Miss Jia Lin Na, she appeared slightly mediocre.

This made Xia De feel again the abnormal charm of the Great Witch.

The Wang Hou came specifically to thank Xia De. She was very kind and spoke very gently. First, she asked about Xia De's physical condition, then talked about his work, and even apologized for letting him wait here for a long time.

This is a very good woman, very good both as a wife and as a Wang Hou. And besides verbal thanks, before she left, she also took off the ruby ring she was wearing on her finger and gave it to Xia De, even smiling and saying that she heard Xia De liked Luo De cards, so she planned to find a precious Luo De card to thank him.

Miss Miss Jia Lin Na did not leave with Wang Hou Diana, but continued to sit on the long sofa opposite Xia De. Xia De looked at her hesitantly:

"It wouldn't be you who told Wang Hou Diana that I like Luo De cards, would it?"

"Yes, it was me. Is there anything wrong with this?"

The Duchess asked, her slender neck appearing fairer against the background of the court dress.

Xia De wanted to refute that he didn't like Luo De cards, but stopped when the words reached his lips. Precious Luo De cards were also valuable. It made no sense to refute this matter now:

"Well, I do like Luo De cards."

He played with the ruby ring in his hand. Although this was a gift from the Wang Hou and could not be easily sold in the near future, the existence of this kind of thing in his hand could give him a feeling that he was very rich.

"You see, I knew you would like it."

The gorgeous red-haired beauty said, and then tilted her head to look at the window. Because the gas lamps and crystal chandeliers in the room were too bright, the refraction of the glass almost turned it into a mirror, reflecting the three people in the room.

The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, and her fair skin formed a sharp contrast with her ruddy lips with distinct lip lines:

"Back to business, did you really just happen to bump into the bullet? You probably don't know that about 200 steps behind you stood a 13th-Ring Mage of the Sun Church. I didn't feel anything wrong, and he didn't feel anything wrong... How on earth did you do it?"

Her eyes looked at Xia De inquisitively, with a hint of a smile. And Xia De himself thought about the experience this morning, feeling lingering fear while also feeling funny:

"The twenty-sided die of fate."

Miss Tifa Servet, the maid, nodded in agreement:

"Yes, among the relics I temporarily kept for the detective, there is indeed this."

Entering Yodel Palace requires a body search. Even if Xia De saved the Wang Hou, he still had to be searched, so the messy things on Xia De were temporarily kept by her. In order to prevent trouble later, Xia De specifically explained the vague functions of those relics.

"Your courage is really great, this does make sense."

Miss Jia Lin Na pointed to her chin with her finger. Xia De realized that this seemed to be the first formal face-to-face conversation between the two sides.

Talking to Miss Miss Jia Lin Na through the door, because he couldn't see anyone, he could always feel the pressure. But talking face-to-face, he was not nervous instead. Miss Jia Lin Na Cavendish's attitude was very approachable, which was different from Xia De's imagination.

"Detective, you did a great job today. I won't say much about praise. I can guarantee that you will at least be able to obtain a Drareon Honorary Knight Medal this time."

Xia De thought of the divination conducted at the Prophet Association and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Don't think it's enough? The Honorary Knight Medal is awarded at most 20 times a year. The last time it was issued to an ordinary person without a title was fifteen years ago. This is a very high honor."

Miss Miss Jia Lin Na said. Xia De shook his head, his body leaned back against the sofa backrest, making his sitting posture more comfortable:

"I actually don't value this."

He was destined to leave the civilized world and go to the St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy located in the extreme north. These honors could not be said to be useless in the academy, but could only be said to be of little use.

"You will gradually find that some honors that can be taken out will make life simpler. In the past era, the Honorary Knight Medal was almost equivalent to the knight class, but unfortunately, there are no knights now."

The Duchess said with some regret, but seemed to think of something interesting:

"But if you can make more contributions, I have a way to get you a title."

"Is it possible?"

"For me, this couldn't be simpler."

She said, bent her fingers and tapped the armrest of the single sofa lightly, her tone became slightly more serious:

"However, detective, I hope you can be more cautious next time. The die you mentioned is not a toy. I rarely think highly of someone. You must not use your life to prove that I misjudged someone."

Xia De knew this was a warning to himself. After this incident, he also understood this truth, just like letting the 【Dark Box】 get out of control at the beginning:

"Miss Miss Jia Lin Na, I will never dare to manipulate fate again."

The last few words were emphasized, and the expression instead made the Great Witch in front of him feel surprised:

"Hmm... it's good to understand. I always feel you have other stories." ===== CHAPTER 188 =====
