Whispering Verse

Miss Emma Sylvia looked at the three people in the room, and all three of them were startled by the lady who walked in quickly and stopped attacking each other.

The big witch looked disgusted, and moved her eyes away from the bald man's face. Then she suddenly saw Shade, and suddenly her eyes widened with an incredible expression:

"you"

"I'm that lady's man!"

Shade immediately picked up the badge on his chest:

"The lady will explain everything to you. This is the Ringman of the Pantanal Voodoo Order, who murdered Count Sakia!"

Shade shouted loudly, so the young witch looked at the bald man closest to her. The latter was startled, and then said viciously:

"No matter who you are, you know the truth about this matter."

Miss Sylvia raised her hand and waved it into the air——

Snapped!

The man's face seemed to have been hit by an invisible hand, his head turned 180 degrees on his neck, and the body fell straight down.

Both Shade and Mr. Bernhardt looked at the big witch who was wiping her hands with a handkerchief in horror. Shade knew that this was the use of space power. It seemed that she was waving it in the air, but in fact, the force directly attacked her. People five meters away.

"I'm that lady's man!"

Shade had to emphasize again to ensure his own safety.

This witch with short black shawl hair ignored the vampire who retreated in fear. She stepped forward and appeared directly in front of Shade. She took a closer look at the pendant on his chest, and then looked like all the witches Shade had seen. Just like that, a white and warm hand grabbed his wrist:

"Are you really a man?"

Although his eyes were sharp and his actions were decisive, his tone was surprisingly not very aggressive. She let go of her hand, then looked at her palm and asked the question that Shade had heard countless times.

"certainly!"

Shade nodded immediately:

"God has promised."

He smelled the "witch's scent" perfume. Miss Sylvia's perfume contained the scent of jasmine.

"Did you use the space magic just now?"

The witch asked again, Shade nodded again, and Miss Sylvia looked at him carefully with her brown eyes:

"So, you are really a man?"

As he spoke, he tried to grab Shade's wrist again, but at this moment the sound of the doorknob being turned appeared again. Not the doorknob of the door, but the doorknob of the bathroom.

Miss Martha, who had changed into another outfit, walked out of the bathroom and was stunned. She was an ordinary person and couldn't feel the fluctuation of the elements just now. Because of the mute spell, she couldn't hear the sounds outside at all. Therefore, she couldn't imagine what happened in the five minutes when she changed clothes to cause the room to change. Such a beautiful young lady.

Then, she saw the bald corpse on the ground and wanted to speak, but Miss Sylvia, the great witch, just stretched out her hand a little. As the gray light danced around her, Miss Martha froze as if petrified. In place, his eyes completely lost their sparkle.

This is the basic spell - Petrification. Shade has read about its improved and weakened version of "Partial Petrification" in the "Pink Book".

"Sir, we will discuss your question later."

The witch looked at Shade:

"Now, let me first explain your identities and what this murder is all about."

"Before that, you'd better deal with him first."

Shade pointed to the "corpse" on the ground with its head turned 180 degrees. The voice in his ears made it clear that this guy was not dead.

Sure enough, as Shade pointed his finger at the bald man, the latter jumped up from the ground, and then turned into a group of worm-like vines and rushed towards the window.

"Confinement!"

The great witch stretched out her hand, and the dense group of terrifying tree vines and the human skin wrapped in the middle were frozen in the air like a three-dimensional photo. This time it is not a petrification technique, but a method similar to "confining space". The great witch Emma Sylvia corresponds to the "space" seat. She is a genuine ten-ring warlock who is good at space power.

"Now, can you introduce your identities?"

She asked softly again, and Shade nodded immediately:

"I'm Shad Hamilton."

Now that the great witch has seen it, and the other party is just doubting the "man" and does not think that Shade's appearance breaks the rules of the witches, Shade no longer hides:

"The lady will explain my matter clearly to you. This is Viscount Armand Bernhard. You should have heard of him from Granny Cassandra."

Miss Sylvia frowned slightly:

"The vampire who tried to rob the auction house on the night of the Battle of Fort Midhill, but was caught by his apprentice?"

She glanced at Mr. Bernhardt, who was trying to make himself inconspicuous, and the latter understood exactly who the other person was. The psychological trauma caused by the near-death experience at Cassandra Auction House made this gentleman want to disappear from the room immediately.

"We are all good people, and meeting His Highness today is purely coincidental."

Shade emphasized again, now feeling a lot more at ease. He motioned the witch to sit down and talk, and then recounted what happened in the White King Club on this Thursday afternoon from beginning to end.

Miss Sylvia listened quietly, and after Shade finished speaking, she nodded slightly:

"The most important thing now is to dissociate Margaret from this matter and not delay Tobesk's visit."

She pointed to the petrified Miss Martha:

"I will modify her memory to make her think that she was caught by your team after knocking Colonel Wood unconscious. I will also modify the colonel's memory to make him think that he was knocked unconscious. As for the crack in the ring , this simple alchemical item is easy to repair.”

Then, he pointed to the terrifying group of vines imprisoned in the air. This was simply like a statue left by the craziest artist:

"I will hand him over to the Zhengshen Church through the black market and leave some clues to let the church know that this matter is related to the Ring Warlock. As for the follow-up, let the Zhengshen Church in this diocese investigate on its own. This has nothing to do with Mag. Li Te’s delegation has nothing to do with it.”

After saying that, those extremely sharp and energetic eyes looked at Shade again:

"A quarter of the bounty on him will be divided among you."

"No, no, no, it's all yours!"

The middle-aged vampire said immediately, and Shade nodded:

"Yes, there is no need to give it to us, as long as this matter does not have anything to do with us."

Miss Sylvia did not refuse, her tone seemed lighter, and there was a faint smile on her lips:

"The vampires over there are not under my control, so I'll just pretend I didn't see you today."

Mr. Bernhardt let out a sigh of relief. Of course, he did not dare to reveal Miss Sylvia's identity. Before leaving the auction house, Granny Cassandra asked him to sign a soul contract.

"As for you, Mr. Shade Hamilton."

She grabbed Shade's wrist again and looked carefully at the handsome face in front of her:

"I seem to have heard this name somewhere. Yes, Margaret mentioned this name when she talked about the gossip in Tobesk City. I see, it turns out that in the past six months, there have been reports from Tobesk City Her scandals and gossips were not deliberately released by the lady in order to avoid being forced to marry. This is actually true. She actually found a person like you. This is really..."

Suddenly he smiled and let go of Xia De's hand:

"If you were her lover, of course I wouldn't do anything to you. But I will go see the lady tonight, and she needs to explain this matter. Sir, clean up here first, don't let this matter delay The delegation’s itinerary.”

"No problem, that's great if you think so!"

Shade took a deep breath, and as the invisible air flow rushed from the surroundings to his nostrils, the damaged walls and the floor corroded by acid returned to their original state as if time and space had traveled backwards.

Mr. Bernhard lowered his head and did not dare to raise his head, so he did not see this scene. Naturally, the big witch recognized what it was.

"Time? I didn't expect you to be proficient in time, but isn't it too wasteful to cast this kind of thaumaturgy just to clean the room?"

Miss Sylvia looked at him more and more curiously:

"Ms. Chia, you really found a treasure this time. Do you know how to report what happened here to Margaret?"

"Yes, ma'am!"

Mr. Bernhard lowered his head and said, he was really afraid of these witches:

"This matter has nothing to do with the ring magician. Let the church investigate the real cause of the count's death."

"Yes, now please wake up Colonel Wood, and you can go see Margaret together."

After saying that, he walked towards the door:

"I'll go and explain to Margaret that you have found the murderer, Mr. Hamilton."

He suddenly turned around and looked at Shade, with a smile on his lips:

"I have read "Hamilton Detective Stories". It turns out that you are really a detective."
