Chapter 2093

"You are very sharp, I also think that is the eye of a dragon beast. So the truth seems to have become clear: 【Dragon Feast Order】 cooperates with local nobles to raise or experiment to manufacture some kind of dragon beast in the sewer, but caused the death of that prostitute because of an accident, and even failed to handle the corpse in time because of an accident. Could it be that the legendary dragon that will destroy Moon Bay is not a powerful dragon, but a terrible and deformed dragon beast manufactured by experiment?"

The witch took a deep breath. This was her hometown and the land where her family had lived for generations. She could not watch the city be destroyed.

Xia De knew her thoughts:

"Only by continuing to investigate can we be clear. Next, I will investigate that sewer. Even if the other party has already transferred that hidden place that looks like an experimental site, I think there should be no traces left behind. Miss Belindell, you come to track down the other party's diviner, I am not good at divination."

"No problem."

The witch nodded and asked Xia De again:

"Can the memory stored in the relic be released again?"

Xia De aimed the muzzle at the wall and pulled the trigger again, watching the familiar light and shadow appear again:

"It can, but you see, the picture has become even blurrier. Oh, the vertical pupils didn't appear at the end, the memory counterattack just now seems to be one-time... I understand, I will let Xilis help handle this memory. Too many key clues have been covered up. If we can completely restore this hidden memory, I think we will definitely have more gains."

Although he still failed to know the truth, this could be considered a major gain. However, seeing that it was getting late, Xia De did not stay long at Belindell Manor. Although Miss Belindell seemed to want to discuss the gains of tonight with him again, Xia De still said goodbye politely. As for investigating the sewer, he still needed the Belindell family to find a map of the local sewer, otherwise, even with "Enhanced Spatial Perception," Xia De didn't think he could find the place he wanted to find in the intricate underground.

The witch did not personally send Xia De away, but ordered Miss Matisse to send Xia De to the entrance of the manor—Xia De refused the carriage.

Confirming that the footsteps had entered the stairs, the blonde witch who was originally sitting on the sofa immediately stood up and came to the window, hiding herself behind the curtains, watching Xia De talking with Miss Matisse while walking through the snowy manor courtyard under the guidance of maids carrying kerosene lamps toward the entrance of the manor:

"What is Matisse saying to him?"

The witch pinching the curtains thought with pursed lips, and then saw the man politely say goodbye to the blonde maid, and the maid also bowed to see the man off. And the man who walked out of the fence gate soon merged into the night, and could no longer be seen. Bella Belindell, who had always been curious about where "John Watson" lived in the city, took out her divination deck again when she knew there would be no results:

"Where will he go?"

The divination card was flipped open, and the card face was "Diviner." The suspicious witch suspected that "John Watson" lived in the local Diviner Society, but she didn't know that because of this divination, she would dream of strange purple eyes again tonight. And Xia De, who threw away the crystal shoe in the dark alley, had already returned to his warm and comfortable home at this time.

"Luweiya has already come."

The location of the appearance this time was the first-floor kitchen. When he walked to the foyer intending to go upstairs, he indeed saw Luweiya's shoes. Afterward, he discovered that there was a pair of women's shoes next to those shoes. Xia De also recognized that they were the black leather shoes of the writer lady:

"Dorothy's feet are smaller than Luweiya's, and Princess Lei Qianya's feet are the most petite. The age, height, and weight differences of the three of them are not particularly large, but why is the size of their feet different?"

Pondering this strange question that would be considered "perverted" if spoken out, Xia De first ran into Little Mia who came to welcome him happily in the stairwell, and then holding the cat, saw the purple-eyed diviner and the blonde writer lady in the living room on the second floor.

Luweiya was sitting on the sofa, and Dorothy looked like she was performing magic for her.

Three teacups were placed upside down on the coffee table. Luweiya pointed to the middle teacup. After opening it, there was a button inside. After covering the teacup again, Luweiya pointed to the teacup on the left. After opening it, there was still a button. After covering the teacup again, this time she pointed to the cup on the right, and the button still existed.

After covering the teacup on the right again, Dorothy opened all three teacups at once, but there was nothing under the teacups.

"Then where is the button?"

Luweiya asked with a smile. Dorothy stood up and hugged Xia De who walked over, and kissed him lightly. Xia De blinked, and spat out the button... actually it was a button-shaped candy:

"Dorothy, can you already perform spatial transfer alone?"

"Yes, although I learned Lagley's jump, for the transfer of items other than myself, it can only be small objects, I am still practicing."

The writer lady said, quite regretful about this:

"It has been a month since the matter at Green Lake ended. Although Princess Lei Qianya and I have spatial talent, the progress is not very obvious."

"If this counts as slow progress, then what do others count as?"

Luweiya said with a smile, took Xia De's coat and hung it on the coat rack, while Dorothy went to the kitchen to bring the teapot:

"Seeing Xia De so busy, Princess Lei Qianya and I also want to help him. We know we can't add trouble to him, so at least we must master spatial movement with people to convince him to let us help."

The emerald eyes looked at Xia De quite resentfully:

"Even if he treats us like Miss Sylvia, a tool convenient for opening space doors, it is better than us only being able to wait for his news."

"First of all, I won't treat anyone as a tool person. If you say this, Miss Sylvia will be sad; secondly, isn't it good for you to wait for my good news at home?"

Xia De said immediately, so Luweiya pressed his shoulder to let him sit down:

"I understand Dorothy's thoughts very well, she just wants to do her best to help you. We have come all the way, and we have also obtained the help of many people to get to where we are today. Just let Dorothy continue to progress, none of us are your burden."

"I want to emphasize again, I won't treat anyone as..."

"Alright, alright, I know."

The blonde girl said with a smile, sitting beside Xia De:

"Why aren't you curious why I came so late? Luweiya said, she agreed with you to help you experience the power of star transfer for a period of time recently, I didn't 'make an appointment' with you to visit."

"Number 6 St. Deran Square is not only my and Little Mia's home, but also your home. You can appear here at any time."

"Look, our knight is always so good at talking, and always treats other people's cats as his own cat."

Luweiya teased, and explained to Xia De:

"Dorothy didn't know I was here tonight. When she came at seven o'clock, she saw the lights on at home and thought you were home. After going upstairs and seeing me, she originally wanted to leave, but was kept by me. She came just right."

Her hand caught Xia De's hand and squeezed it lightly, with some different smiles in her purple eyes.

Xia De understood her meaning almost immediately. Looking at the writer lady again, Dorothy's face was slightly red and she was pouring tea, complaining that the witch in Moon Bay made Xia De still doing missions there so late. Princess Lei Qianya often said this too.

"Don't think too much, at least we still have to go stargazing tonight."

Luweiya scratched Xia De's palm lightly:

"Go change your clothes, the three of us will go to the roof to watch the stars together."

After finishing, she said to Dorothy with a smile:

"Speaking of which, I have been to Number 6 St. Deran Square so many times, it seems I really haven't been to the roof many times."

"I have almost never been there either, but the weather tonight is very good, the scenery there should be quite good."

Dorothy also said. Xia De nodded, not saying what he thought of at this moment.

The long-haired Luweiya always appeared on the roof, and now, the short-haired girl was finally going there too. But at least the current era was still relatively peaceful, and she was not alone now.

Xia De also learned on this night that Dorothy's astronomical knowledge was also very rich. The two girls pulled him to watch the stars on the roof together until very late that night, until the cat, who couldn't wait any longer, meowed in the attic to urge Xia De to go to sleep, only then did they end tonight's stargazing date.

Calling it a date, in fact, Xia De still learned some things. Experiencing the star rotation could not be gained in a few hours, but although he could not use "Adele's Principle of Return," he was quite sure that he had definitely mastered part of the power.

Slowly experiencing the return of the stars, energy bullet reflection, and time reversal required time, but if he used the "Philosopher's Stone" obtained from Green Island, Xia De was quite sure that he was fully capable of perfectly using that strange art once.

Of course, this was very wasteful.

This night Little Mia stayed in the wardrobe again, and Luweiya thoughtfully helped it build a soft nest with Xia De's clothes. However, looking at the cat's expression, Xia De highly suspected that it would hold a grudge against Luweiya because of this.

As for outside the wardrobe, Luweiya was eager to try and test whether, by relying on the two female sorcerers tonight, she could defeat the knight who had never had a record of defeat without using 【Youth Eternal Leaf】.

So on this night, the diviner and the writer worked together, but unfortunately, they finally reached out to the bedside table to find the box containing the leaves. As for Xia De, he compared the size and softness of the two girls' feet in the spirit of experimentation.

Of course, Xia De was very sure that tonight, which seemed to be a game for three people, absolutely had five people participating. That red-haired princess went without saying, Xia De always felt that when Luweiya was confused, the long-haired girl had briefly controlled her body to appear.

"So I have always believed that the Ringed Shushi system of this world is really too... fascinating."
