Chapter 2048: Elf's Summer Vacation

Six people took two carriages and arrived at the Three Cats Hotel, and the doctor took them to see the hotel owner and asked for the keys to the rooms booked in advance. The hotel owner, Mrs. Madame Sangmei, who was very familiar with Xia De, saw that the three were Xia De's friends, and even said with a smile that she would reduce the room rent for them:

"Detective, you have to take care of my business often."

"Mr. Hamilton has a lot of face in Tobesk."

Behind Xia De, Emilia pulled Dorothy's sleeve and said softly:

"I knew he was very powerful before, Miss Luweiya, is he very famous in the city?"

The students at the college mostly learned about the famous detective of Tobesk from Dorothy's novels.

The writer lady nodded with a smile, and she had a very good impression of Emilia. Just as she was about to explain Xia De's reputation in the city, a noisy sound came from the hotel entrance behind the crowd.

Turning to look, a team of police officers in police uniforms walked in from outside the door. Mrs. Madame Sangmei hurriedly left the counter to greet them, and after saying a few words at the door, she appeased the guests not to panic, saying that the police were just looking for a wanted criminal, so they had to go upstairs to check the rooms.

"People from the Church."

Dr. Schneider said softly, controlling the volume so that only a few people near the counter could hear clearly. He and Dorothy moved their positions slightly, covering the three people behind them, but soon Dorothy laughed.

Xia De also knew that these were people from the Church, because among that team, besides normal police officers, there were clearly two "employees" from the Black Stone Security Company. Standing at the very end of the team, holding a record book and looking like a "female police officer" responsible for recording, when she looked up and looked around, she happened to meet Xia De's eyes.

Iluna Beias suppressed the smile that was about to appear on her face, looked around, and after confirming that no one was watching her, she raised the record book in her hand to cover the lower half of her face, and then blinked at Xia De.

The soul-stirring look in the eighteen-year-old girl's eyes and the affection in her eyes made Xia De feel blushing for a moment. And seeing that Xia De didn't dare to look at her, Iluna praised the expression that Luweiya had specially trained for her in her heart.

The police soon began to act, and the people standing by the counter preparing to rent a room naturally also needed to be checked. However, Dorothy gave Dr. Schneider a look, and the latter was no longer so nervous.

But the three who came from the college were extremely nervous. Emilia even moved behind Xia De, pulling his hem, hoping that Xia De's body would cover her. Then, while the cat's tail was swinging in front of her eyes, she saw that she was "stared" at by the young female police officer, which made her even more nervous.

"Good morning, Detective Hamilton, are you here to investigate a case?"

Although Xia De didn't know the police officers, the police sergeant who led the team knew this gentleman. He greeted Xia De very warmly, and Xia De also introduced that he was entrusted by someone to bring the three who came to Tobesk City to spend the summer to rent a room.

The sergeant looked at the three people whose expressions seemed a bit wrong, and then looked back at the old man and the female police officer in the team. Xia De and the Black Stone Security Company had cooperated last month, so both sides were quite familiar. So they talked warmly for a few more words, and they didn't even talk to Emilia and the three directly, just listened to Xia De's introduction of the origins of the three, and let them pass this inspection:

"I wish you a happy time in Tobesk, but the city is not very safe recently, don't stay outside too late at night."

The kind-hearted sergeant said, and then led the team upstairs to continue checking.

And Emilia, who breathed a sigh of relief, noticed that the female police officer in the team looked at her again before going upstairs, which made her suspect whether the amulet she was wearing had a problem.

After the check-in procedures were completed, the six people also went upstairs together. The three guests from afar naturally lived in single rooms. Dr. Schneider helped Mr. Rio Enshill to see the room, while Miss Matila Delas familiarized herself with the environment with Dorothy, and Emilia followed Xia De into her room.

After there were no other people around, the blonde elf turned around in the room where she was going to live for a month, opened her arms as if to embrace the sun, and exclaimed:

"This is the taste of freedom!"

"Since that incident in Randal Valley, have you never been able to leave the school again?"

Xia De asked while teasing the cat on his shoulder. Emilia turned to look at him, with a pitiful look on her face, nodding quickly:

"Yes, yes, although Miss Danister said she wouldn't pursue my responsibility, and the college didn't mention this matter again, she still wrote a letter to tell my family about this..."

The young elf pursed her lips, and the expression on her face could be easily read:

"It was hard to get out this time, but you absolutely wouldn't think that Mr. Enshill and Miss Delas were both sent by the family to monitor me. They are both half-elves, and they can be considered relatives with me. With this way of forming a team, can I still not understand?"

"After all, this is the core diocese of the Five Gods Church, and the management is stricter than the Randal Valley diocese. It is good to be cautious."

Although the companions were related to the family, Emilia was not disappointed at all, but walked to the window again, standing there and poking her head out to look:

"The Pearl of the North—Tobesk City... It's really good here."

The hat had been taken off by her, and even the amulet was temporarily taken off. The blonde elf girl with pointed ears stood at the window of the hotel room in the steam city, looking at the bustling square in the lower city, which was more impactful than any picture.

"It's just a pity that I left my little Liana. I won't see her for a month. I'm really worried about her health... Bring some candy when I go back."

"Liana" is the name of that young unicorn.

"Can unicorns eat candy? I have a jar of good honey there, you can take it away when you leave."

"Meow~"

"I can go buy it again, don't lose your temper... Did you understand what I said just now?"

The silly cat rubbed Xia De's hand, naturally unable to give an answer.

"In short, summer has begun. Welcome to Tobesk City, Emilia."

Xia De said seriously, and the elf girl turned around again, looking at Xia De with big beautiful eyes:

"After we finish the task, can I go to your house to play? Please take me around the city by then. I don't know how many years later I will come to Tobesk next time."

"Of course, I live here."

He gave his business card to Emilia:

"If you encounter trouble in the city, you can come here to find me. If I am not at home, leave a letter. I still have a lot of face in the city."

So Emilia also thought of the scene just now:

"Yes, yes, I didn't expect that you also know the people from the local church. This is even better than when you were in Randal Valley. I have always known that correspondence students are very capable, but you must be the most capable one!"

Because Xia De went to Emilia for help to find that "Road of Night" during the Battle of Randal Valley, the elf girl could vaguely feel some things.

"In the impression of students at school, what are we correspondence students like?"

"Good at fighting, often killing people, holding secret gatherings in hoods under the pursuit of the church, and trading illegal items in alleys at night."

Speaking to the end, Emilia herself laughed. She knew the correspondence students in the Randal Valley area, and of course, she knew this stereotype... actually, it couldn't be said to be all wrong.

Dr. Schneider paid for it himself and treated everyone to lunch at the Three Cats Hotel that day. After lunch, he said goodbye to the three people from the college, but the doctor also left his contact information to prevent them from encountering problems and not finding helpers.

Of course, before parting, Xia De also gave the elf girl the contact information of many black markets in the city, the number of which was far more than the only large trading place introduced by the doctor. Seeing Emilia's eyes shining, she probably wanted to take advantage of this trip to make a good purchase. However, Xia De was not worried about her safety. Now it is the summer of 1854 in Tobesk, not the summer of 1853. Compared to Moon Bay, where he is investigating, Tobesk is definitely a safe zone.

So the summer practice activity of Emilia and the three officially began. Although the elf girl really wanted to go to Xia De's house to see it today, considering that she had just arrived in Tobesk and had many things to do, and needed to familiarize herself with the environment, she had to give up temporarily.

She and her companions talked about local scenery and subsequent sightseeing plans, and returned to the third floor of the hotel to continue tidying up the room. In addition to Dr. Schneider's group, the college also arranged other contacts for them, and they had to meet in the afternoon.

And when Emilia took out the room key to open the door, the door of the room next to her also opened. A middle-aged woman with a kind face greeted the elf girl with a smile:

"Oh, miss, good noon. Do you live next door?"

"Yes, ma'am, good noon."

Emilia also responded, but actually didn't want to talk too much with strangers. She didn't have the "elf supremacy" racial view, just didn't want to cause trouble when going out, and the enthusiasm just now was because she knew Xia De.

But the middle-aged woman next door didn't seem to see this, and even enthusiastically invited her to be a guest next door, but was naturally rejected by Emilia.

However, they still informed each other of their names. The elf girl used a pseudonym because her surname was too elf-style. At the same time, she also learned that the Goodman family lived next door.

"Interesting surname."

Thinking in her heart, she closed the door and took out Xia De's business card and held it in her hand, smiling and imagining how to spend this summer that would definitely be very pleasant after the college's task was finished. And outside the closed door, on the other side of the room, it was clearly the wall at the end of the corridor.

She didn't have a neighbor on that side. ===== CHAPTER 2049 =====
