Chapter 636 Thanks
Twenty minutes later, Shade and Dorothy have returned to St. 6 Lan Plaza. The sky at this time was more gloomy than when Shade got up in the morning. Even if the gas lights were still on in the house in the morning, the room still looked groggy.

Shade sat alone on the sofa and hugged Mia, while Dorothy, who had just been caught in the rain, went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Playing with the half red butterfly pendant in his hand, Shade didn't expect it, but it was an attempt to suddenly have a thought, and it actually succeeded.

Of course, it's not a complete success. Because the current Dorothy and Laixia can only look at each other for a short time at a long distance, they still can't look at each other for a long time, and they can't even get close.

But "being able to look at each other from a distance" is a big improvement over the previous situation where no contact was possible, which means that Shade's method works.

"I'm so lucky? It's just a casual question at Professor Dunn at Fort Midhill, and then I found Professor Manning, and Papa John just happened to find the right idea. speaking of which, all thanks to Mother-in-law Cassandra..."

The sound of the carriage rolling over the waterlogged road is particularly evident in the rain here. Although the Saint Derain Square is not as lively as it used to be, there will still be no shortage of pedestrians.

Dorothy's emotional ups and downs just now were very big, that should be her and Laccia, the two girls who can exchange souls and know each other's secrets, looking directly at each other for the first time. At this time, I went to the bathroom to take a shower, not only because I was soaked by the rain, but also because I didn't want Shade to see her lost self-control.

Shade actually understood her emotions at the time, so she also understood that she didn't want to go home immediately with him, but stared at the Yodell Palace for a long time until the pain of her soul forced her to close it. Eye.

[Do you think you understand the minds of girls well? ]

Just as I was thinking, a voice suddenly came from my ear.

"Well maybe. However, if you go to Old John to make a better alchemy item, maybe it will be more effective. Didn't he say that this one I have in my hand is just scraps. It is made, and even the material cost will not be charged.”

While Dorothy was taking a bath in the bathroom, Shade carried the cat to the study, and under the gas lamp, shared the information he got at Midhillsburg. All the information about the Gemini God and the Gemini faith was written down. Although it has been repeated to Dorothy, it is still better to write it down and give it to Lecia, and let her use her influence to investigate.

After all, compared to the power of Her Highness the Princess, the detectives at St. Teresa Square are really weak and pitiful.

When Shade returned to the living room, looking at the document in his hand and wondering if he had missed any details, the bathroom door finally opened.

Goldilocks wipes her fluffy blonde hair with a new towel from Shade, wearing the white shirt that Shade washed for her last time but didn't take back (Chapter 443):

"Shade, do you really have no other ladies' clothes at home?"

She seemed to be back to normal.

"Except for a garter belt and a pair of red high heels (chapter 486), you can only put on your clothes for now."

Fortunately it was raining today, so Dorothy Cido put on a coat and went out. Now it's just that the coat is wet, so she actually still has clothes to wear.

"Meow~"

Dorothy sat on the side sofa, the cat lying on Shade's lap glanced at her, and then let out a lazy bark.

"Wait!"

Shade immediately put down the document in his hand and sat up straight, alert:
"Are you Lacia?"

Goldilocks smiled and glanced at Shade's cat:
"It's me, your cat is amazing. So far, it's the only one who can tell us apart."

Said and touched the right earlobe.

"Good morning, why are you here?"

Shade asked, handing her the handwritten document in her hand. Lecia took it and glanced at it before putting it back. Put it on the coffee table:
"To thank you, of course."

"Oh, no kidding! Such a small thing"

"It's not a small thing."

The blonde girl with wet hair looked at Shade, and from the eyes of Dorothy's body, Shade felt that she really saw Lacia's soul.

"Really, thank you very much. I also imagined that Dorothy and I would one day be able to get closer, but I really didn't expect this day to come so soon."

Her Highness the Princess said softly, although she looked calmer than Dorothy just now, but obviously this calmness was just a habitual disguise to cover up her mood.

"It won't be too late to thank me when you can touch each other."

Shade said, looking away, reaching for Laccia's tea. Lecia mouth showing a smile, she shook her head slightly:

"It's really our luck to meet you."

"Then let's thank the doctor, it was the doctor who met you. I am."

Shade grunted, and put the cat that seemed to be asleep on the lap on the sofa, the cat squirmed a little, and curled up as if afraid of catching a cold:
"Then As for the red butterfly pendant, you can go find old John yourself, I only know so much. Maybe Father John can make a better red butterfly, remember to tell me when you succeed."

He pointed to the information on the coffee table:
"Besides, the matter of Lieutenant Houghton you asked me to investigate is clear. He does have a lot of expenses recently, and even smokes a cigar, but The public saying is that he won a lot of money playing cards in the city.”

The gentle expression on Laccia’s face was swept away, face turned cold, snorted:
"Sure enough, it seems that I have been betrayed by Shameless."

"Do you need me to go?"

Shade made a wiping action, and Lecia was amused by him He shook his head slightly:

"It's not that serious, it's just that someone is reselling my goods. The harm caused by those mice is not great, but I have to let them know what the price is. In fact, I have some small business myself, and in the warehouse at Fort Midhill, there is a shipment ready to be shipped to Carson Rick next month."

Shade understands, Princess and Prince of Delarion We, impossible don't use their power to earn gold pounds for themselves.

"Do me one more favor and take me to Fort Midhill to check the warehouse. You don't need to be too detailed, just count the number of boxes. You can make sure that there are no other tricks. I'm going to give them a good warning."

This kind of thing can also be done by Laccia's local forces, but Shade will do it faster.

"No problem, I was planning to go to Fort Midhill this afternoon. Where's the address? Did I sneak in quietly, or did I contact your people?"

asked Shade, it was just a few extra steps for him.

"Sneak in, this time, I must let them know, the price of betraying me." Seeing Shade looking at her in surprise, she said with a smile:
"What's wrong?"

She can really control her expression.

"Oh, nothing, where's the address?"

"19 Punjab Street, right in the city center. Come back next Tuesday, the first day of the Moon of Dead Leaves. , it was a holiday that day, and the warehouse was almost empty after the goods were placed in the morning."

"Okay, no problem."

Shade nodded, and then hesitated for a while, the shopkeeper on Punjab Street Warehouse, he had heard of it from another place.

The information from Virgil Cameron of Seth dukedom passed on by the grey-headed eagle is, [On the last day of this month, your goods are in the city of Midhillsburg-Punjab Street-hanging the red number plate in the warehouse]. And the warehouse with the red house number, Shade also specifically determined that it is No. 18 Punjab Street, and it is only separated by a wall from Laixia's cargo warehouse.

"What a coincidence."

"How can I thank you, Shade? I remember Dorothy saying that you seem to have a lot of expenses lately, so you're short on pounds. ?"

Lecia asked tentatively.

"No no no, don't give me gold pounds."

Shade is to avoid becoming a soft eater. It's a very valuable thing:

"If you want, I'd like to see the original communication diary between you and Dorothy. I've always been interested in that."

"Oh, this can't be done."

Lescia shook her head slightly, her attitude very firm:
"This is not suitable for you, I think, why not. I'll help you prepare some autumn clothes. , I noticed that your wardrobe is full of old clothes, you can't wear them when you go out."

Probably Lecia's definition of "old clothes" is different from Shade's, and the autumn clothes in Shade's wardrobe are all What Detective Sparrow prepared for him before he died was new clothes that he bought at a reduced price this spring.

"Okay."

Shade doesn't mind if it's just some clothes.

"And, have you kissed Goldilocks who just took a shower?"

Lecia asked again.

"Of course not."

So Lecia, whose hair was still wet, sat beside Shade, just wearing that thin blouse, and hugged Shade.

Perhaps Agelina was right, Lecia did love kissing.

"Meow~"

Mia, who was coiled into a ball, suddenly opened her eyes, looked at the two suspiciously, and then patted Shade with her small paws.

“en?”

Shade pushed away the girl in front of him and shouted in surprise:

“Dorothy!?”

Those dark green eyes looked at him at close range, quite resentful:
"Really, next time you must get your cat away first, and then try to see if you can tell the difference. Us."

"That's not mine"

"Shut up, Shade."

The woman writer said, rubbing her lips with a finger, She looked at the man in front of her tenderly:
"Lescia said she wanted to thank you personally, so I agreed to exchange with her, didn't expect her to thank you like this."

Her eyes were a little shy again, but she still boldly gave Shade a short kiss:
"It was hers just now, this is my thank you."

Blushing, be careful biting his lower lip. She's still not as bold as Lecia, which may be the only difference between the two.
