Chapter 74: Miss An Na Te

~8 min read 1,497 words

【You have come into contact with 'Profanity'.】

"What?"

Wanting to bypass the grape trellis, the voice suddenly appeared in his head. 【Profanity】 elements were mostly related to evil gods. Doctor Shi Nai De had said that once you come into contact with this kind of element, turning around and running was the correct way to do it.

Xia De also wanted to turn around and run, but there was still a person in front of him. The crying poet didn't seem to notice Xia De walking nearby.

"Is the poet a Ringed Shushi?"

Continuing to walk forward, he asked uneasily in his heart.

【No.】

Xia De breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that "Another Face" was easy to use, and his footsteps became relaxed. He didn't look around, but walked straight through under the grape trellis.

After completely moving away from this area, he stopped by the flower bed, feeling relaxed. Just now he was really worried that a pair of hands would suddenly drag him into the darkness.

"Is there something hidden under the grape trellis? Oh, it seems I can't run around anymore, otherwise something will really happen this time."

The strange luck tonight was really hard to understand. Xia De felt that he had better find a safe place and not run around anymore.

After calming down, he looked at the surroundings. This was actually the maze area of the garden. Although the garden maze built with fences and tree bushes wouldn't make people get lost, once you walked in rashly, you definitely wouldn't be able to get out without spending some time.

Xia De looked at his pocket watch. It had been almost an hour since he parted with Priest Ao Gu Si. He didn't know if he could play a role in the upcoming big event, but at least he couldn't sit here all night.

Continuing to walk forward, he turned left when he encountered a fork in the road of fences and tree walls. Before long, he heard the sound of conversation. He was happy in his heart, thinking of following others to go out, but stopped when he heard the content of the conversation:

"Nightingale, do you understand at all? You are not a Gray Hawk. How could we who are hiding in Tuo Bei Si Ke City not be afraid of the Military Intelligence Six? How dare you meet me here? Everything is for the glory of Karsenrick... wait, did I hear someone approaching?"

"Karsenrick United Kingdom spy? I have met countless acquaintances, frustrated officers, strange Ringed Shushi, and foreign spies in one night. What kind of crazy night is this? Could it be that the Luo De cards just now overdrawn the luck of the day? How exactly is the 20-point die affecting me?"

Turning around and leaving, not willing to get involved in this kind of trouble.

Turning right at the next intersection, he heard footsteps again. This time the footsteps were very dense, clearly not just one or two people. Xia De was relieved, immediately walked quickly toward the front, and then turned a corner at the end of the hedge, and saw the Ringed Shushi squad under the 【Sun and Earth Church】.

Xia De had seen them at the beginning of the banquet. The dozens of people were all there, and they were very surprised by the young man who suddenly popped out from the corner.

The strong man who was the leader seemed to be the captain. He looked at Xia De and then suddenly asked:

"Sir, why are you attending the Lake View Manor banquet?"

It was ordinary language and ordinary narration, but Xia De had an urge to blurt out the thoughts in his heart.

"Ringed Shushi power! Fortunately, he didn't expect that I am not an ordinary person."

While thinking, he had no urge to suppress the truth, because the truth didn't matter:

"Of course, it's to play Luo De cards."

He didn't think when speaking, but after speaking, an expression of deliberate surprise appeared on his face.

"You, you, what kind of power is this?"

While speaking, he covered his mouth and retreated. Xia De thought that maybe he was really good at acting.

The captain of the Ringed Shushi squad, the man who looked quite strong, glanced at Xia De, then stepped forward, patted his shoulder in a friendly way, and his eyes met his at close range. The middle-aged man's eyes were brown:

"Sir, forget that you have seen us, and then go do what you should do."

Xia De felt a slight dizziness.

【Pretend to be conscious and blurred.】

The whispering sound prompted, and Xia De immediately narrowed his eyes, swaying his body clockwise like a tumbler.

He thought his disguise was ridiculous, but the Ringed Shushi of the 【Sun and Earth Church】 clearly believed it. So they didn't pay attention to Xia De anymore and hurried past him with the team.

Xia De noticed that the youngest girl with brown long hair in the team looked at him when passing by him, but didn't recognize that Xia De had met her in front of the pet shop a few days ago, and hurried away.

Xia De still maintained that ridiculous appearance until he confirmed he couldn't hear the footsteps of the Ringed Shushi squad before moving to leave.

"Luck seems to have suddenly turned bad. Whether it's eavesdropping near the stable, bumping into foreign spies just now, or meeting the True God Church Ringed Shushi squad here, is this the price of good luck? However, meeting the captain should be considered a good thing."

Xia De thought in his heart, but the woman in his heart asked back:

【Why can't these be part of good luck?】

"What's good about these things?"

He asked in confusion, lowering his head and walking forward along the courtyard path illuminated by the elegant brass gas lamps. Suddenly someone patted his back. Xia De thought "bad luck" was coming again, but after turning around, he saw the smiling blonde writer, Miss Dorothy Lu Lu Lu Yisha.

She was wearing a beautiful evening gown, but the style was relatively conservative, and the ruffles on the skirt were decorated with white lace items.

"Oh, this must be good luck!"

If it weren't for the fact that the two sides weren't very familiar yet, Xia De would have wanted to hug her.

"What good luck... what is that smell on you?"

The blonde writer asked with a smile, her emerald eyes looking up and down at Xia De, a bit strange why he was wearing a shirt and holding a coat. Xia De thought there was still a residue of horse manure smell and patted his clothes awkwardly.

"Detective, why are you here? By the way, I just met Luweiya. She actually returned from Karsenrick yesterday, but didn't go to our study group. I'll introduce you to each other."

Xia De thought suspiciously:

"Luweiya? Who is that... oh, it's Miss Luweiya An Na Te."

Miss Luweiya An Na Te was the only Ringed Shushi in Doctor Shi Nai De's group who hadn't met Xia De. Third Ring, her main job was a staff member of the 【Diviner Association】, and she was a joint training student of Saint Byron's Comprehensive Academy and the Diviner Association.

"Wait a minute, let's talk about this later. There is something more important now."

The two left the courtyard path with lights and entered the grass with dim lights on the side.

Xia De briefly talked about his encounters with all kinds of strange people tonight, skipped the Luo De card part, and then talked about the conversation with Priest Ao Gu Si an hour ago:

"Priest Ao Gu Si said that the church is highly likely to close the net tonight to arrest Mrs. Lasoya of 【Mercury Blood】, which is Jack De Ang. The priest asked me to notify you to leave as soon as possible and not take risks for 【Counterfeit Philosopher's Stone】."

Miss Lu Lu Lu Yisha's expression became serious when she heard this:

"Tonight is indeed not suitable for taking action. However, your luck is really good. The church's Ringed Shushi squad usually avoids ordinary people when acting, but you actually met them three times in one night... Detective, you absolutely must not approach the mansion. Since you and the priest parted an hour ago, then..."

"Dorothy!"

They both heard someone calling Miss Lu Lu Lu Yisha's name in a low voice. Looking at the courtyard path under the gas lamp, they saw a young lady with brown short hair wearing a blue evening gown walking over with two glasses of wine.

Inexplicably, Xia De understood that this lady who looked slightly older than himself was the diviner Luweiya An Na Te. The last member of the Ringed Shushi group finally appeared.

He was not happy, but thought in surprise:

"Wait, they all appeared here? Oh, what exactly is going to happen?" ===== CHAPTER 75 =====
