Whispering Verse

Chapter 2376 The tryst and the traces of the priest

"As far as I know, among the many brothers and sisters of Agelina, there are quite a few who are useless. Lesia and Agelina are special cases."

Shade smiled and said:

"Besides, Margaret, you're not bad either."

Although Emilia turned her back to them, she kept listening to the conversation and thought that Shade was really good at making people happy.

"Oh, Shade, don't say that to me, I know my own level."

Although she said this, the blonde princess who was almost sitting in Shade's arms clearly had a smile on her face:

"Ten minutes before your arrival, Teacher Sylvia went to the Goethe Hotel to find Teacher Bernice, asking her to help sense the earth and locate a suitable location in the city as a spatial node. She will definitely feel sorry for her when she comes back. I missed meeting you."

"What's the regret? It's hard to say what I'm going to do in the afternoon, but at least I'll have lunch here."

Then Margaret's eyes were bent like crescent moons because of her smile:

"Okay, I'll let the maid prepare a feast later, but I think Earl Belindel has let you taste enough local delicacies these days."

She stared at Shade with a smile, and then bit her lip gently:

"Handsome Knight of the North~ Although Yuewan's delicacies are delicious, did you know that Willendale's delicacies, especially the royal desserts, actually taste good too."

Agelina and Emilia, who were listening to the conversation, understood the meaning of this sentence almost at the same time.

On the sofa, Margaret leaned in Shade's arms and raised her head. She touched the side of Shade's face with her left hand, looked at Shade with affectionate eyes, and then kissed her upwards gently.

Agelina was still writing the speech at her desk, and Emilia was still watering the tree and pruning the excess branches. Of course, the elf girl can actually see everything behind her by relying on the reflection of the window glass.

Therefore, not only could she see another princess taking the initiative to kiss Shade, but she also saw her friend Agelina clenching her left hand hanging down under the table.

But Agelina did not stop the two people on the sofa from doing some unseemly things during the day. After all, if Lesia was here, she could do more. Fortunately, Margaret was indeed very reserved. She just held Shade's hand and felt the texture of her long dress from the inside. Of course, she deliberately avoided Agelina's peripheral vision.

Feeling the warmth of her loving hand, she lay quietly in Shade's arms and listened to his heartbeat, thinking that it would be great if this could happen forever.

Agelina and Emilia will only stay in the manor for this day, and they can return to Belindel Manor tonight, so Shade doesn't need to ask them if they are used to living there.

Of course, Shade didn't really spend the whole morning with Margaret on the sofa in the study. Even if he had time for a while, Margaret didn't. Although it was Sunday, according to her schedule, she had to visit the children in the orphanage this morning.

Of course Shade would go with her, but before that he asked a question:

"It can't be the Red Heart Orphanage, right?"

"where is that?"

The blonde princess with a blush on her face asked as she was changing her clothes for going out under the service of the maid. Shade, who was sitting on the chair in front of her desk and watching her change clothes, immediately shook his head:

"It's okay if it's not. I don't want to meet Mrs. Jude again in a short time."

After all, what he did that night was indeed a bit excessive.

As a princess, the orphanage that Margaret visited to express the royal family's goodwill was, of course, the official "Yuewan City Orphanage" run by the city hall.

The person accompanying Yuewan on the visit was the elderly Viscount Silver. This lady, like Miss Belindle, was a woman and was very suitable for accompanying the princess in such a thing.

Viscount Silver arrived early and set off with Princess Margaret, while Shade disguised himself as an attendant and followed Margaret.

When a group of people arrived at the orphanage located in the south of Yuewan City and on the edge of Xiacheng District in heavy fog, a large number of reporters were already waiting.

Police and royal guards were on guard at the intersection, and the interior of the orphanage had been checked in advance for dangers such as steam bombs. After what happened last Sunday, no one dared to relax. Fortunately, at least this time there was no accident.

Although most of the funds for this official orphanage are funded by the city hall, the specific operation is not done by the city hall, but by the charity organization "Snake Heart Hospital", which is an ordinary people's organization under the jurisdiction of Sister Devlin Responsible.

Therefore, there were many staff members dressed like nuns inside the orphanage, and Margaret even asked about them with interest.

"Not only Shexin Hospital, but also kind-hearted people from Yuewan City will come here to volunteer. A few days ago, there was even an old priest from the North who was willing to stay here to help. The children liked him very much. He originally wanted to I went to the Dawn Church to rent a room, but isn’t the church being renovated recently?”

Ms. Jane Salander, the director of the orphanage, introduced it to the princess, so when a group of people walked through the corridor on the second floor not long after, Shade felt something in his heart. He looked out of the window of the corridor into the yard below, and he happened to meet the person he had not seen for a week. Priest August caught his eye.

The old priest and a fat man in chef's clothes emerged from the fog, followed by a large group of teenage children who were preparing to move baskets of fresh vegetables to the kitchen. Of course the priest recognized Shade, but he just nodded and did not make any eye contact with Shade. Instead, he asked the chef next to him:

"Princess Margaret should be the only one visiting today, right? If normal order returns here in the afternoon, I'm thinking of taking the children to the backyard to pull out weeds. Although it's a bit colder this summer, the vitality of these weeds is really tenacious. "

The fat chef shook his head:

"I haven't received any notice that anyone else is coming to visit, and who dares to come on the same day as the princess? But they are on the second floor now, and it seems they won't go to the kitchen anymore. Come on, boys, work harder. Move these vegetables to the cellar quickly. Also, don’t steal tomatoes and cucumbers, otherwise you won’t have food to eat at night!”

The priest nodded, curious about what Shade was doing.

Because the "Lady of the Lake" had reminded that there were indeed some "remains of the Angel of Death" in Moon Bay, so when Shade actually saw the traveling Priest August in Moon Bay, he was actually a little worried.

But in the end, he did not meet and communicate with Priest August alone that day. Instead, after Margaret visited the orphanage, he left the place with her.

Since the priest was traveling and relaxing, Shade felt that he should not disturb him easily. And as for the remains of the angel who told the death, no matter how hard he tried to stop them, they would still appear next to the priest.

The most Shade can do is pay attention to the situation here. He believes that the priest himself will make a reasonable judgment.

Margaret's schedule this morning was the only one, and she felt a little relaxed on this rare Sunday. After returning to the manor, Shade made a request to her:

"Can you help me investigate someone?"

He hesitated for a moment:

"Don't come into direct contact with this man, let alone let him have any idea that someone is investigating him. Ptolemy Albert, coroner at the Spider Lane coroner's office in Lower Town, Moon Bay. When he was young, he worked at St. York's Medical School in Willendale. I studied medicine in the hospital, and after graduation I became a military doctor and went to the New World with the army. I only returned to Yuewan about ten years ago."

Mr. Albert only reconnected with Mr. Bernhardt when he officially settled in Yuewan eight years ago, so he should have actually come to Yuewan earlier than this:

"He had many jobs in Yuewan. He eventually lost his job because he participated in students' riots while teaching at the college. He has been working as a coroner to this day. I know his general past, but now I hope to know more about him. The trajectory of his life and what his friends and colleagues said about him.”

Margaret and Shade walked up the stairs of the manor side by side:

"St. York Medical College? This is the best medical school in Kasenlik. The graduates there are now working as coroners in Lower Moon Bay? This is really interesting."

Her Royal Highness the Princess was a little surprised, but still nodded:

"No problem. Do you want to know about his past from the side? It's not a troublesome matter. Just write a few letters. But things about Willondale's school years and Moon Bay are easy to investigate. His experiences in the New World period are probably It will take some time to figure it out, so just wait for my good news.”

"What to investigate?"

Suddenly there was a voice from above, and the two of them raised their heads and looked up the stairs. Miss Sylvia was already smiling and waiting for them at the top of the stairs.

At the lunch table, Shade, Margaret, Miss Sylvia, Emilia and Agelina sat down together. Miss Sylvia told Shade a piece of good news:

"They originally wanted to tell you at night. Your Excellency the Speaker has confirmed the whereabouts of the [Star Sword Stone]. It is no longer in the hands of the small ring warlock organization in the Island Kingdom. After many negotiations, it was relatively peaceful. , Your Majesty the Speaker learned that the relic is now in Yuewan."

"Unsurprisingly, this makes it more likely that the thing is an item needed for the chosen one's ceremony."

Shade nodded and looked at the seafood creamy mushroom soup on the table in front of him. He didn't know how to express that he didn't like the taste.

【It’s annoying. 】

"She" smiled and pierced Shade's thoughts, and Margaret asked curiously:

"Teacher Sylvia, whose hands is that relic now?"

"Your Excellency the Speaker said that the [Volcano Alliance] sold the relic to a very ancient hermit organization - the [Hermitage of Guiding Light]. In fact, the Parliament had contact with them, but that was many years ago, Your Excellency the Speaker I'm still trying to figure out how to contact you, but I think there should be new news soon."
