After Shade finished his meeting with Miss Denister, Lesia's breakfast had been prepared. But probably it was to thank Dorothy, so it was obviously her who made the breakfast, but during the meal, Miss Writer
But it’s already back:
"Really, I have obviously had breakfast, just five minutes ago. My soul tells me that I am full, but my body is still a little hungry."
Dorothy looked at the breakfast on the table with a sad face, and while little Mia's eyes lit up, she said:
"However, since Lesia made it, I have to eat it no matter what. The worst thing I can do is walk a few more steps today to burn off all the calories."
So the cat obediently shrank back to Shade and waited for feeding.
The temperature in the Randall Valley seems to have always been lower than that in Tobesk. When Shade asked this question to local Miss Lassers, she just said that the weather this year was special.
This Wednesday, the only thing Shade had to do was to go to the elf lady outside the city in the evening to get "elf purified water." During the day, he had planned to visit the Granger family's old cemetery outside the city, but he had just arrived.
Wilde Opera House, and was called there by Margaret, whom she hadn't seen for a week.
The princess of the South did not complain that Shade had not come to see her recently, because she herself was quite busy. This time she went to the Wilde Opera House, on the one hand, to explain to Miss Bernice the progress of her recent task with the Stonemasons Guild, and on the other hand, she went to the Wilde Opera House.
On the one hand, it was also to try his luck and see if he could meet Sha De.
"The college has sent people to check out the overseas silver mine you mentioned."
When she pushed open the study door, Margaret, who was looking out the window with a smile, turned to him and said, then opened her arms and hugged him:
"Really, I've been so busy lately and I don't have time to spend time with you."
Shade felt that this should be his line.
"I know you are very busy. I just went to see Earl Granger yesterday. From him, I know how busy you are recently. Speaking of which, are things going well with the Stonemasons Guild?"
"Fortunately, it went according to plan, so it wasn't smooth sailing."
She let go of Shade who was hugging her:
"Do you have time on Friday night? William and I held a banquet at the manor where we are temporarily staying. We hosted a banquet for the nobles involved in the Second Southern Shipyard of the United Kingdom Navy as the last gathering of the construction period. It was not a formal dinner, but each of us brought our family members.
, it can be regarded as a rare time for William and I to come to the Randall Valley to win over the local nobles."
"Friday, right?"
I'm going to see Miss Elf tonight, and I'm going to visit the Night Temple for the second time tomorrow. Friday is fine for the time being:
"I will attend."
Margaret smiled:
"So do you have time this afternoon? How about accompanying me to the Masons' Guild? It's not a public visit. I contacted the president of the Masons' Guild and there will be a private meeting this afternoon. I will hand you over to me then.
Bring out the original share documents of the Stonemasons Guild. I know you have your own things to do, but this meeting is important. Very important."
"no problem."
Shade agreed again. Anyway, there was nothing else important today. Visiting the cemetery was not an urgent matter:
"I'll go back to Tobesk at noon to check the information. Let's meet in the afternoon. Speaking of which, over the weekend, I met Miss Sylvia in a special way. She looked very good, and she asked about you very caringly.
What's going on?"
[How do I remember that she only asked a few questions after you reminded her? 】
"She" pointed out Shade's lie softly.
Margaret's face showed a smile:
"I know that the teacher has always cared about me. However, if I pass Miss Bernanice's trial, I will have two teachers. Miss Sylvia will always be my teacher."
"Do you know her invention? I saw the finished product."
"Oh, has it been done yet?"
Her Royal Highness the Princess has also heard about this. When she left Willendale a month ago, Miss Sylvia did not come with her because the experiment was in its final stage:
"It should be very beautiful. When I had afternoon tea with the teacher, she showed me what the finished product would look like with water and ice."
Shade nodded:
"It's quite beautiful. Miss Sylvia should come to Randall Valley in a while, and you can take a look at it then."
Margaret kissed the side of Shade's face:
"I am looking forward."
Shade said he would go home at noon to check information. Of course he would go to MI6 to see if there was any new news about the Randall Valley recently.
He was unable to contact Director Anlos directly, so he went to the city garbage disposal center where he received his monthly salary and found Mr. Giles Johnson, who was responsible for communicating with him.
I don’t know what Director Anlos said to Mr. Johnson. When Shade expressed his desire to see the confidential documents, Mr. Johnson asked Shade to wait without even asking him why.
So before lunch, Shade got the document bag with the seal "Top Secret, Second Class". He could only read the document bag on the spot, not copy it, and he couldn't take it outside, so Shade was at the garbage disposal center.
The equipment maintenance office looked through it on the spot.
He raised his eyebrows as he looked:
"It really has something to do with us. This trip is not in vain. I haven't seen the director since Her Highness Agelina's birthday party. What has our director been busy with recently? If it is a secret,
You don’t need to tell me.”
Shade sat outside the iron table and said while reading documents, while Mr. Johnson inside the iron table was holding a teacup and reading the newspaper. His daily job is this:
"It's not a secret. After spring, aren't we and Kassenrik preparing to renegotiate the new trade route in the Pantanal area and the border issue in the disputed area? The director is doing preliminary preparations. Every time we encounter
For such a big event, we are the busiest."
Mr. Johnson, who was drinking tea and flipping through the newspaper to read the latest news, said:
"The two countries are still negotiating the specific location of the negotiations, which will probably be in a certain border city. I don't see the director often recently. He is probably on a business trip."
As he spoke, he turned the newspaper to the next page:
"Members like you who have been working in the field for a long time, and staff like me who work hard in the office, are the backbone of the Sixth Office. I just hope that I won't be transferred to a business trip by then. It's hard for me to feed those two pots of spider plants.
"
Shade looked at the table at the door. There were no windows in this room, but because of the layout of the steam pipes, the temperature was not low. Mr. Johnson was able to raise the two pots of spider plants in this season. It must have been raining during normal working hours.
Great effort.
"We must be worthy of our salary. Speaking of which, I heard rumors a year ago that our basic weekly salary was going to be raised? I thought this matter would be raised after the award season was over. As a result, the salaries of civil servants were raised.
There is already news, and it is said that it will be announced next week, so why don’t we have news yet?”
Shade asked casually again, and Mr. Johnson shook his head slightly:
"I remember that you are now a lieutenant colonel? Your basic weekly salary is more than three times mine. Salary increases are never easy, and there are still discussions in the parliament, but don't worry, Director Anlos is not interested in collective salary increases.
This kind of thing is always quite positive. I bet that no department in the kingdom has a salary increase as fast as ours."
Shade looked at the six recent arrangements in the Randall Valley written on the document in his hand, and couldn't help but smile:
"That's good, that's good. Spring is coming soon, and I'd like to add some good clothes."
Mr. Johnson did not move his hands, tilted his head, and looked at Shade from behind the newspaper:
"Knight, Miss Carina will leave you without good clothes to wear?"
This is not to ridicule Shade, but to purely express his curiosity.
"Of course the Duke is very kind to me, but if he only relies on women for clothes and food, then what kind of man is he?"
Shade's attention was all on the document in his hand, so he just answered casually. Mr. Johnson asked curiously:
"I thought. I didn't mean anything else, but Miss Carina is so rich, I thought all your daily expenses were"
"The Duke wanted to give it to me, but I didn't want it."
Shade shook his head and wrote down the contact information with the local spies in the Randall Valley:
"I asked her to stay out of my affairs. If I have something to do, I will tell her directly. She should not talk too much and just go and help me."
"You really are."
Mr. Johnson showed an expression of admiration:
"sharp."
I don’t know if it’s because Shade mentioned the matter of Randall Valley City to Director Anlos last time, or maybe MI6 has actually been paying attention. In short, when Margaret launched her plan in Randall Valley
, MI6 also conducted a series of operations in the Randall Valley.
These top-secret plans should have been lying quietly in the archives, but during the boring discussion between two boring men about women and dignity, Shade read them in detail.
The Sixth Office moved faster than Shade thought, and had already noticed that Princess Margaret of Anjou seemed to want to solve the matter of the Stonemasons Association. In fact, this was not difficult to detect. But in short, Shade got some
A key clue, which he believed should be able to help Margaret.
It was already noon when we came out of the garbage disposal center. Because Mia was taken by Dorothy, Shade did not stay in Tobesk for lunch, but went to the Randall Valley to meet the girl at the opera house.
We had lunch together.
It was not a formal banquet, but everyone had their own food box in the dressing room, and everyone chatted and ate. Miss Lassers and Miss Benanis were also there. This kind of luncheon started from Miss Benanis.
It existed before the official full takeover of Golden Dawn.
Therefore, although the Witch of the Earth is not as good at fighting as Miss Aurora, nor is she as majestic as Grandma Cassandra, nor is she as powerful as Miss Carina, her followers are the most loyal.
