Chapter 483 Meeting Plan & Street Lights

“What? Tonight?”

Dorothy nodded, looking at him with some dissatisfaction:
"Yes, Shade, tonight, you have to prepare seriously. Although Lai Xia is very familiar with you, you have to show your attitude. She can't stay out long, King Your Majesty flies into a rage over Sax Cavendish, and no one wants to upset him now."

"What am I going to do?"

Shade is not only happy to finally meet Her Highness the Princess in Tobesque, but also happy to be able to give away the four 1 shilling printing masters in his hand. With those things in his hands, he always felt like he could become a criminal at any moment.

"The time is too urgent, how should I arrange it?"

"I know you can't do anything about it, it doesn't matter, I have already arranged it for you."

The carriage started and headed for Sainte-de-Land Square. Dorothy took out her notebook and wrote down her schedule:

"You go home now and change into something you don't usually wear. Grey gloves on both hands, Pin a brooch of any animal as a token. At 6:50, wait at the alley next to the Prophet's Association, and jump on it immediately after the carry with the Hayabusa crest stops. Must hurry, the carry only stops five Seconds."

"Is Lecia on the carriage?"

"Oh Shade please keep your mouth shut, time is tight, don't interrupt me."

Dorothy looks a little agitated:
"The carriage will go east, then turn south and park on the street on the edge of the University District and Tobesque South. You leave the carriage and turn two nearby through the alley. Circle, at 7:40, enter the nearby red flame restaurant. I have reserved a private box for you, and Lecia is waiting for you inside."

"You are for us."

"You can chat while eating, but remember that the opera opening time at the Tobesque Opera House in the southern district is at nine o'clock tonight. I have already booked your tickets."

p>

"You're for us."

"Try not to leave the box after the opera to avoid being seen. After 10:30, Shade, you need a gentleman. You can put Lacie Take Ya back to St. Teresa Square to sit for a while and talk about the topics you are interested in. You can also send her directly back to Silver Cross Avenue. I have booked a four-wheel rental carriage from the Opera House for you, the driver is Lei Lazia's people, please rest assured."

"You're for us."

"Finally, you must remember to let Lazia go back to Yordle before twelve o'clock , or else."

"Otherwise Laccia will change from Princess to Broom Girl?"

Shade said suddenly.

"What fairy tale are you talking about? Shade, time is tight."

Dorothy waved her hand to shut Shade's mouth:
"Yordle House is replaced by midnight. The Imperial Family guard of the class, appeared at 12:00. Lescia can only control the guards in the middle of the night, so she must go back before 12:00."

After finishing speaking, whoosh sound, she was very Roughly tore off the pages from the notebook and stuffed them into Shade's hands. It's not just the timetable, but the dos and don'ts, and Dorothy's reminders of Lascia's liking.

Goldilocks looked at Shade quite seriously:

"Besides, I don't think you're ready for Laccia's return to Tobesque, oh now gentlemen Always so careless. But don't worry, I sent a letter yesterday to help you order a bouquet of flowers at 'Mary Jane's Florist' near St. Teresa Square, which will be delivered almost as soon as we get back to the square. You You can take one to meet Lecia, or you can watch the opera, take her back to the square and give it to her later.”

“Help me.”

Shade finally endured He couldn't stop interrupting her words:
"Dorothy, won't you come with us?"

He looked towards the girl in front of him. Although Dorothy had a smile on her lips, she couldn't. When his eyes looked towards him, his expression seemed to be a little sad:
"I said, I can't make close contact with Laixia, or even look at each other from a distance. Instead of following you from a distance, it's better that I don't stay tonight. Show up. It's good for us all."

"But"

"Don't use the transition word, Shade, I can do anything for you, it's okay."

She didn't know what to think, her face was a little red, and she shook her hair:
"Lescia is me, I am Lascia. I don't care about that. Besides, tonight's expenses It's all from Lescia, including the bouquet, and I also left the name of Lescia's personal maid. Shade, have a good time tonight"

She said full of smiles, it looked real don't care.

The carriage rides smoothly, but the sound of hooves and the noise of the street in the evening outside the window make the silence in the carriage a little weird at the moment.

Dorothy pushed open the window, and the scorching warm wind rushed in at once.

She turned her head and looked towards the tall chimneys of densely packed towers in the distance, billowing black smoke into the sky, this is the unique skyline of Tobesque, the capital of steam, which is a symbol of this era.

Shade also looked towards the window:
"Dorothy, if I can find a way for you to meet, look at each other, and touch."

"Then, you'll be us"

The words were almost babble, and Shade didn't catch the last word.

The evening wind blows through the street, making the pedestrians on the street feel a little chilly, and autumn is coming. The wind also blew across the face of the girl by the window, making her blonde hair sway with the wind.

She doesn't look at Shade, Shade can't see her expression. But the most familiar person is not far away, obviously they talk almost everything to each other, and their souls are closely connected, but there may be a sense of loneliness that they can't touch each other and can't see each other all their lives. Shade looked at her lonely back. I actually feel that I have some experience.

[Outlander, this is like me and you? ]

Her voice suddenly appeared in his ear, Shade froze for a moment, folded the notebook pages in his hand, and stuffed them into the chest pocket of his black coat:
"I didn't say anything. ."

After the carriage stopped at Sainte-de-Land Square, Dorothy did not get off the car, but repeatedly told Shade not to miss the time before taking the carriage to leave.

The feeling of one girl making schedules for herself to meet another girl made Shade feel weird.

It's just that since it has been arranged, he will not miss the appointment.

Although the appointment time was 6:30, in order to prevent being late, Shade arrived at the alley next to the Prophet's Association at 6:00.

Grey gloves are available at home as tokens, but animal brooches are really hard to find. Finally, in the bedroom desk of the deceased Detective Sparrow, he found a brass brooch in the image of an eagle head. The shape is very similar to the emblem of a certain country in his hometown.

The motionless would be very conspicuous standing on the alley, so Shade also bought a newspaper from a child who sold newspapers on the street.

didn't expect The newspaper had just opened, and I didn't even read the front page of the headline of the King Your Majesty's speech when I heard someone calling his name:
"Mr Hamilton, you What are you doing here?"

It was Mr. Addis Stein, the local president of the Prophet Society, and he was accompanied by Mark Vice-President and two other gentlemen Shade didn't know, who seemed to be off work. Going to drink together in the future:
"I am entrusted by the detective, I am connecting."

Shade half true half false said, I hope these gentlemen will not stay here for a long time.

"It's really hard work, and I have to meet people at mealtime."

Mark Vice-President sighed, and several other gentlemen also sympathized with Shade's career. It was Stan Vice-President, because Shade helped solve the "Agelina Princess Injury Case" last time, so he was very fond of him.

Taking a one-shilling coin out of hand, and after a toss, the most famous seer in Tobesque reminded with a smile:
"Mr Hamilton, my divination shows that, If you put your gloves upside down, replace the newspaper in your hand with a Threepence, and buy a red rose to hold in your hand, you will have great luck when it comes to piecing.”

Because this gentleman accurately predicted "Knight" last time, Shade is very convinced of it. After saying goodbye to the crowd, he found a newsboy on the street, bought another newspaper, and then bought a red rose from a flower girl.

There is a bouquet of flowers at home, but Shade put them in the basement to prevent them from being eaten by cats. I thought it was troublesome at the time, and I didn't take out the flowers, so now I have to spend money. But if you're lucky, it's probably worth it.

After buying the flowers, Shade continued to stand at the alley with the newspaper and the flowers, and the Silver Cross Avenue was very lively in the evening. There were hardly any poor people in the lower city in rags. Whether it was a gentleman in a hurry on the street, or a nobleman who took the carriage away from the Yordle Palace, everyone looked so bright and confident.

If the city of Tobeysk is the heart of the entire northern part of the old continent, then Silver Cross is the heart of the whole of Tobeysk. The essence of civilization gathers here, and the people living in the vicinity also enjoy the dividends brought by the kingdom and the era.

If you just watch the street view here, then this era is undoubtedly the most advanced, civilized and stable era. But to the outsiders who hang out in the city, he is very clear about the nature of civilization, and cannot be judged by the most gorgeous scene.

"Civilization~"

I sighed in my heart, and suddenly the rays of light flickered around me.

Shade turned his head to look. Above the street light pole at the entrance of the alley, the warm yellow rays of light flickered a few times, and with the pu' sound light sound, the rays of light came on completely.

Clusters of firelights lit up one after another along the street from far to the front, and then from the front to the farther. The rays of light illuminate the stone pavement under the feet of everyone, and illuminate everyone here.

No one stopped because of this scene, and a few people would turn their heads to look at the gas street lamps around them with smiles on their faces.

Only the outlander stared wide-eyed looked up and looked towards the top. For the first time in the night of this era, he saw the scene of the gas street lamp lighting up the city.

This scene is very ordinary, but like a hammer, fiercely's percussion hits Shade's heart.
