Shade spent the remaining hour in the morning learning basic photography skills, and focused on learning how to develop film in the darkroom. It was not until 11:50 in the morning that a carriage was called to move the equipment with Dorothy
Got back home.
But after moving the camera to the door of No. 6 St. Teresa Square, Shade did not open the door immediately. Instead, he smiled and suggested to Dorothy:
"Let me take a picture for you here. He pointed to the door of his house:
"You stood on the steps, holding your handbag with your hands hanging in front of you.
"Oh, that's not okay. I didn't put on makeup seriously. Besides, there are so many people here, so don't interfere with other people's business.
The blonde girl said with a blush, but she was already a little moved. In fact, there were not many people in Saint Teresa Square at noon, at least not many people in front of Shade's house.
Unable to withstand Shade's persuasion, Doro finally agreed to Shade's suggestion: "I'll go in first, and you can call me after you adjust the camera."
So Shade spent more than ten minutes setting up cameras and spotlights on the winter streets where the flow of people was not dense, with his back turned to the people walking and the four-wheeled taxis passing slowly. Since he had no assistants, he not only had to lift it himself
He had to turn on the spotlight and operate the camera by himself. After everything was ready, he knocked on the door of his room, and then the blond girl, who seemed to be lightly powdered, walked out with an obviously reluctant Mia in her arms.
"Meow~"
It screamed at Shade, and the voice sounded like it was asking for help.
Dorothy didn't care about this. She smoothed her hair, held little Mia in one hand, and held the hat on her head shyly with one hand. She tilted her head slightly, and looked at the camera with her green eyes, with a rather green look on her face.
Astringent and slightly exciting.
"Are you ready? Look at the camera!" This sentence was said to the cat.
"Three, two, one!"
beep!
As the spotlight flashed and the smoke drifted into the sky shrouded in gray fog, Dorothy's expression as she stood on the steps of Shade's house holding Mia was permanently recorded.
The neighbors Mr. Smith and Mrs. Smith, who happened to be returning from a trip, saw Shade taking pictures of Dorothy. They said hello to Shade and then returned to their home, but Shade relied on his excellent hearing to listen.
When she arrived at the door, Mrs. Smith complained:
"When you were young, you didn't have the same sentiment as Hamilton next door.
Dorothy also heard their voices, and with a blush on her face, she took out the key and opened the door. Shade was left alone outside the door to pack up the photographic equipment. The basement of his house was very large and could fit all these things.
When having lunch with Dorothy in Tobesk City, Dorothy was obviously in a good mood. She found out that Shade wanted to take a photo of a stone statue in the Randall Valley, and learned that Shade was with Ruth.
Via acts together:
"Don't go home tonight, stay with Luvia in the Randall Valley." Miss Writer said softly, and pointed at Mia:
"If you want to take the cat with you, take it with you. If you don't want to take it with you, leave it to me to take care of. So after having a full lunch, Mia left with Dorothy.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Shade and Luvia met on time at the Church of the Forgotten. Because the relevant information of this church could not be exposed, when taking pictures, Shade also used illusion magic to lower the light in the church, making the background of the stone statues blurry.
Pitch black.
After everything was ready, the photos he took only included the stone statue of the middle-aged man and part of the bench where the stone statue sat. Even the stone statue was not particularly clear. But this was just right. After all, he didn't want to be confused when searching for clues.
This stone statue regenerated other waves.
It will take some time to develop this photo. If Shade does it by himself, because he can directly control the temperature for the final drying, it will only be completed in twenty minutes.
The basement of his home was the best darkroom, and he had already prepared the chemical materials for developing photos. However, he did not carry out these tasks immediately. He just moved the camera back, and then returned to the Randall Valley:
"Louvia, I will develop the photos after I get back. In the afternoon, let's go for a walk in the city together. "Aren't you in a hurry to find Mr. Thomas Granger?"
Luvia asked curiously, and before Shade could answer, she naturally held his hand.
The city of Randall Valley City covers only about two-thirds of the area of Tobesk, but if you include the area in the suburbs and the mountains in the northeast, the total area designated as the "Randall Valley Area" is actually
It is no smaller than Tobesk.
After Luvia came to the local area, she has been busy with the work assigned to her by the Prophet Association and the college, and she has not had time to take a good rest. This afternoon, she was invited by Shade, so she had time to enjoy the winter breeze of the unfamiliar southern city.
The two first visited the city museum in the city - the ticket price was quite shocking, but at least the exhibition was interesting enough. The museum has a special "Stone Man Hall" to display the stone man statues discovered during local archaeological excavations. Rand
Among the cultural relics unearthed in the Er River Valley area, stone figures are the most common thing. Here is the occult cognition
The "center of the earth" has a tradition of worshiping the earth and stones since ancient times.
Next to the museum is the Wilde Opera House. Shade greeted Miss Lassers in advance and bought two tickets for the night. Then he took Luvia to visit the backstage of the opera house. They met Miss Bernanise again, but
For some reason, the big witch was a little embarrassed when facing Luvia. She probably hadn't forgotten the accident caused by drinking the essence from the pink vial at the Saint-Péry Cemetery.
Borrowing a horse at the Opera House, Shade rode the horse and took Luvia out of the city. Following the route he took when he last traced St. Perry's Cemetery, he first came to the Green Grass Farm under the name of Miss Bernanice, and then
Depart from the farm and enter Elderlon Creek.
Luvia also likes the scenery of the creek forest in the snow. The purple-eyed girl is wearing a brown cloak and lace-up brown boots walking in front, and the knight in a black coat is leading the horse behind, and they are together.
Walking in the snow forest, she left two adjacent sets of footprints and horse hoof prints. When Luvia and Shade were chatting and laughing, she would turn to look at his face from time to time, hoping that time would stand still that afternoon.
When the sun sets, the white snow is also dyed orange. The horses are tied to the trees, and Shade and Luvia stand on the branches of a tall Randall pine, looking at the sunset spreading to the west.
The sun. At this time, half of the sun was hidden under the city, and the remaining half of the sun dyed the city located on the river valley plain golden. Shade unconsciously thought of the half-moon in death.
, it also spreads the glow to the calm water.
But then, I realized that this idea was abnormal. Juxtaposing death with the Randall River Valley always meant that the city was about to be destroyed.
After getting off the tree, Shade was about to ride back to the city with Luvia and leave. Luvia didn't know what she thought of, she gently pushed Shade, pressed him against the tree, and then kissed him passionately.
Got him.
Shade did not resist, but also hugged Luvia and felt her passion. However, a cry of "Ang~" suddenly came from his ears, followed by the sound of cheerful four hooves stepping on the snow.
Luvia also heard the sound and thought that a small wild boar or a villager's lost goat had run nearby.
I turned around to drive away the running wild animals, but when I turned my head I saw a little golden-horned beast with pure white hair running happily towards me in the setting sun.
"unicorn?!"
The little beast ran very fast in the snow. When it came to Shade, it excitedly poked the back of his right hand with its horn, and then ran around him and the tree.
"Is it the one from last time?"
Shade asked in his heart, and then heard "her" smile: [Of course, you should be able to guess it by looking at her performance. 】
So he stretched out his hand, and the unicorn meekly stopped and accepted his touch. Luvia looked at this scene strangely. She had heard Shade talk about the unicorn, but seeing it with her own eyes still felt strange.
Incredible: "Even I have some doubts about your gender now.
"Don't you know best what gender I am?"
Shade said casually. When he realized what he said, Luvia blushed and patted him. Then, the purple-eyed girl also wanted to reach out and touch the unicorn. Miss Benanis said
Yes, most girls have dreamed of this rare and beautiful creature.
It was obvious that the little beast was a little reluctant, but Luvia still touched it.
"I think our plan to return to the city has to be postponed. We can't leave it here alone. The elf who is responsible for taking care of it
Girl, I should be able to find you soon.
Considering that it took the other party half a day to realize that the unicorn was missing last time, "quickly" is an inaccurate adjective.
"Of course, who wants to go to the opera when there is a unicorn? Oh, it's a pity that I didn't bring a camera, otherwise I would have taken a photo with it.
"Then camp here. Why did you run away from St. Byrons again? There are so many bad people. What would you do if you met someone other than me?"
The second half of the sentence is in ancient Elvish language.
Luvia agreed with Shade's proposal, and besides, she only regarded today as a date with Shade, and it didn't really matter where she was.
Although he did not prepare to camp in the wild, Shade had enough supplies. He inserted a wooden fence on the snow, lit a fence fire, and set up a tent, and the simple camp was ready.
Luvia took over the task of cooking dinner, and the pure white little beast lay down next to the fire at Shade's request. Its blue eyes looked at the pot in front of Luvia, which looked very similar to
Little Mia is very similar.
"The authority of the ancient god - [Mother Earth Goddess] is the earth, the foundation stone, the four seasons, and memory. I hope the earth can remember this moment."
Luvia, who believed in fate, prayed to the ancient gods, but she didn't know that the shadow behind her was also looking at the man beside her.
