Chapter 188 and Miss Galina
Shade was going to say goodbye to Mr. Thinking of one thing, he has been thinking about it all afternoon:
"Has Mrs. Cook's child been found?"

The maid, Miss Tifa Serveit, heard this question and laughed and laughed. The head, the detective is indeed such a person, and Mr. Anlus is stunned:
"Who is. Oh, that middle-aged woman? Found, the police raided the alley and found three missing children , The woman you mentioned cried out at the time. The whereabouts of more children are still being traced. This is the biggest case in Tobesque this summer. With the few people arrested this time, there will definitely be an answer. "

"This is really good."

Shade relaxed, he even got shot to find the child, and if he didn't find it in the end, it would be really bad.

While Mrs. Cook could not possibly have paid him handsomely, Shade's immense satisfaction from the incident more than made up for the time spent.

"Hamilton, you."

Mr. Anlos was about to leave, but before opening the door, he turned around and looked towards Shade. The middle-aged man smiled at him, and this time the smile was the most real in the two meetings:
"I'm not a youngster's life mentor, but you are really rare, I heard, You just met that woman today, and decided to help her as an agent without mercy, fortunately you're not an agent."

He nods to Shade:
"Youngster is really good and has a bright future. I will contact you if there is anything, pay attention to recovering at home these days, and if necessary, write directly to that place."

After finishing speaking, he left without looking back. His footsteps were much lighter than when he walked through the door.

Shade was still waiting until 7pm. Fortunately, the people here prepared dinner for him and specially arranged the place to eat. During this period, Miss Tifa Serveit was with Shade the whole time, but she did not eat with Shade.

Shade tried to invite her to sit down too, but the maid just smiled and shook her head.

On their way back to the waiting room from the temporary restaurant, they passed a group of middle-aged gentlemen with strange accents. They were complaining that they had not been summoned for a day, and it seemed that King Larousse III was really busy.

Shortly back in the waiting room, Shade came to visit again. This time it was Queen Diana and Miss Galina. The queen was the same age as the king, and both were much older than Miss Galina. Although Queen Diana herself is also a beautiful beauty, she looks a little mediocre when standing with Miss Galina.

This made Shade feel the abnormal charm of the Great Demon woman again.

The Queen came to thank Shade, she was kind and soft-spoken. First asked about Shade's health, then chatted about his job, and even apologized for keeping him here for a long time.

This is a very good woman, both as a wife and as a queen. In addition to verbal thanks, before she left, she also took off the ruby ring on her finger and gave it to Shade. She even said with a smile that she heard that Shade liked Rhodes cards, so she planned to find a precious Rhodes card. Thank him.

Miss Galina did not leave with Queen Diana, but continued to sit on the couch opposite Shade. Shade looked at her hesitantly:
"You're not the one who told Queen Diana that I like Lord's cards?"

"Yes, it's me, what's wrong with that?"

asked the duchess, her slender neck was even whiter against the court dress.

Shade wanted to refute that he didn't like Rhodes, but the words stopped again. Precious Rhodes cards are also valuable, and it doesn't make sense to argue against it now:

"Well, I do like Rhodes cards."

He played with the ruby ring in his hand, Although this is a gift from the queen, it cannot be easily sold in the near future, but keeping this thing in his hand can give him a feeling of being very rich.

"Look, I knew you'd like it," said the gorgeous red-haired beauty, then tilted her head and looked towards the window. Because the gas lamps and crystal chandeliers in the room are too bright, the refraction of the glass makes it almost become a mirror, reflecting the three people in the room.

The corners of the mouth are raised slightly, and the fair skin contrasts sharply with the rosy lips with distinct lip lines:

"Seriously, did you really happen to hit a bullet? You probably I don't know, at that time, about 200 steps behind you, stood the thirteen-ring warlock of the Supreme Sun Cult. I didn't feel a problem, and he didn't feel a problem. How on earth did you do it?"

The eyes looked towards Shade with inquiring eyes, with a slight smile. And Shade thinks about his experience this morning, and at the same time feels amused:
"Twenty-sided dice of fate."

The maid, Miss Tifa Serveit, nodded echoed:
"Yes, this is indeed among the relics I temporarily kept for the detective."

Entering the Yodell Palace is a search, even if Shade saves the queen, so Shade's messy things, It's in her custody for the time being. Shade went out of his way to explain the vagueness of those relics in order to prevent trouble later.

"You have a lot of guts, that makes sense."

Garina tapped her chin with a finger, Shade realized, this seemed to be the first time between the two parties. A formal face-to-face conversation.

Speaking to Miss Galina through the door, because he can't see anyone, he always feels the pressure. But talking face-to-face, instead of being nervous, Galina Cavendish showed a very approachable attitude, which was different from what Shade imagined.

"Detective, you did a great job today, and I won't say more about the compliments. I can guarantee you at least one Delarion Knight of Honor this time."

Shade raised his eyebrows at the thought of the divination at the Society of Prophets.

"Do you think it's not enough? The honorary Knight Medal is only awarded to a maximum of 20 a year. The last time it was issued to an ordinary person without a title was fifteen years ago. This is a very high honor. "

Miss Galina said, Shade shook the head, leaning back on the back of the sofa to make the sitting position more comfortable:
"I don't really value this."

He is destined to leave the civilized world and go to the comprehensive Academy of St. Byrons in the extreme north. These honors cannot be said to be useless in the Academy, only that they have little effect.

"You will gradually find that some of the honors you can get your hands on will make life easier. In the past era, the honorary Knight Medal was almost equivalent to the Knight class, but unfortunately there is no Knight anymore. ."

The Duchess said regretfully, but seemed to think of something interesting:

"But if you can make some more contributions, I have a way to give it to you. Get a title."

"Is it possible?"

"It couldn't be easier for me."

she said, bending her fingers He tapped the armrest of the single sofa lightly, and his tone became a little more serious:
"But detective, I hope you will be more cautious next time, the dice you mentioned is not a toy. I rarely like one. People, don't use your own life to prove that I'm wrong."

Shade knew this was a warning to himself, and after this incident, he also understood this truth, as if It was the same as letting [The Box of Darkness] get out of control:
"Miss Galina, I dare not control my fate anymore."

The last few words were re-read, and that expression made the Great Great in front of me. Demon woman was surprised:

"Well, it's good to understand. It always feels like you have another story."
