Captain Woody also had his hands behind his back, blowing the cold wind at the end of winter, looking at the children on the river. He holds a cane in both hands, and his standing posture is quite stable:

"No, I think you are the one who can kill Oxenfurt. Although I dare not go to the church, I have also found other people over the years, trying to get revenge on Oxenfurt. When they heard about the ancient demon, Everyone was so scared that they never contacted me again, but you are the only one who is different. Although you look young, the arrogance in you is incomparable to others."

"Arrogant?"

Xia De smiled:

"Give me the photos and letters, and I will solve Oxenfurt. If possible, I can also try to deal with your matter."

At that time, the doctor can be brought over to have a look. Dr. Schneider definitely doesn't mind one more target.

"Photos and letters...get the kid up, and I'll give them to you."

said the old man.

"What?"

Xia De raised his eyebrows, and then saw Captain Woody's eyes looking at the children on the ice, counting backwards in his mouth:

"Three, two, one."

The sound fell, and with the extremely slight sound of Kacha, one of the boys fell straight into the ice hole. This is not some kind of trick the captain is playing, this should also be the ability he got from the demon, knowing who will fall into the water:

"Oh, I told them just now, don't just play on the ice!"

Fearing that the hole in the ice surface would expand further, the other children did not dare to approach the hole even though they wanted to save their friends. And Xia De had already run over at this time, he told the children not to come over, and then lifted his foot to smash a larger area of ​​ice, making the ice hole large enough for him to pass through, and then jumped in neatly.

A few bubbles appeared on the surface of the water, and there was no more movement, while the slightly older children quickly ran to the village to find the adults. When the people from the village on the other side of the river came with floats and ropes, Xia De had already moved the boy to the shore together with the man leading the donkey he met at the gate of the mill. The experienced Captain Woody is helping.

Fortunately, Shad was very fast at the time, and the boy did not stay underwater for too long. So he coughed a few times, spewed out a few saliva, and then woke up.

The villagers surrounded him happily. The boy's mother, a thin woman with a spatula in her right hand, hugged him and cried loudly.

The wet Shad squeezed out of the crowd with Captain Woody, and then walked back towards the manor:

"I didn't expect that you promised to give me those letters and photos, but you only used this kind of request... Is this considered kind? To make up for the wrong things you have done in your life?"

Xia De asked, but the old captain shook his head:

"I have the knack of seeing if someone is going to die in the water anytime soon, and seeing it means they're going to die. Only in rare cases, and people with very high knack, can I reverse the deaths I've seen. So far So far, I have only encountered this situation twice. The first time was a priest who was able to walk on water and rescued soldiers who fell into the water with the New World Exploration Corps; the second time was a mermaid with glowing scales all over her body. Drag the girl who fell into the water to the reef. And you are the third."

"Trust my ability?"

"Yes, take the letter and photos. If you kill Oxenfurt, please burn those parchments. No need, let them exist."

The crowd by the river was still making loud noises. The boy’s mother was holding the boy and preparing to go back with the group. The boy had to wipe his body as soon as possible to prevent him from catching a cold and getting sick. Colds and fevers are quite dangerous in this age. Of course, people did not forget to thank the old captain and the unknown young man loudly. The old captain did not turn around, but just raised his hand and waved behind him.

The cracking of the ice surface just now was not because of the children's jumping, but because the temperature was not enough to support the thickness of the ice layer at the weak point of the ice surface. The temperature is rising little by little, and the snow that covered the Randall Valley for the whole winter has also shown signs of melting.

Spring probably really is coming.

Shade, who was soaked all over his body, got the letters and photos, and hurried back to the Church of the Forgotten in a carriage and then returned home. The coachman who was driving him was still curious about what Xia De was doing, and Xia De replied that he went to fish in the river.

After taking a good hot bath at home, wearing pajamas, hugged Mia on the sofa in front of the fireplace, and checked the photos and letters in the firelight.

Although the old captain seized them, they were well preserved. In the black and white photos, Shi Dong and Hela, who were photographed together, looked quite young. Stone Oxenfurt's face was tense, while Hella Watson's smile was like a flower, and the performance of the two was completely different from what Shad knew.

There are three photos in total, one is a group photo taken in a photo studio, one is a group photo taken on a boat, and the other is a single photo of Hella Oxenfurt. As for the letters, there are a total of five letters, all of which are from 1847 in the common calendar. That year, Stone Oxenfurt was still on board but he had obtained information about the demon summoning. The old captain also suspected that the thief was Oxenfurt.

Xia De arranged the letters in chronological order. The five letters were written between April and July of that year. Mrs. Hella's handwriting was quite beautiful. In the letter, she looked forward to their meeting again after the ship berthed , looking forward to a beautiful love and future life.

She mentioned in the letter that Stone Oxenfurt seemed to have said to her before that he had recently found a way to make a fortune and would soon be able to buy back his family's old house and get her businessman father to agree their wedding. In the letter, Hela was very worried about this. She probably suspected that Stone Oxenfurt had gone astray, so she persuaded him not to take risks.

【...I have saved a sum of private money for myself over the years, and when we really want to get married, you can use this money for urgent use...】

She said so in the letter, and Shade also understood why the old stonemason of the Stonemasons Association and Captain Woody thought she loved him very much.

Given the current situation, it is difficult to say what the source of the tragedy is. But when Xia De put away the last letter and looked at the fire in the fireplace, he vaguely saw a fire in Randall Valley City, and saw countless souls wailing in it:

"No one is worthy of pity."

At 11:30 noon, the knock on the door downstairs meant that Yin Luna had arrived.

Xia De changed out of his pajamas and was ready to go out, so he took Mia downstairs and opened the door to welcome Yin Luna:

"Good noon, you're really on time. I made a reservation for the restaurant yesterday. Do you want to come in and take a rest first? Or go to lunch directly?"

Shad asked.

It seems to be Yin Luna who put on light makeup, standing outside the door a little cautiously, she looks at Xia De's attire, with a smile on her face:

】

"Go straight to lunch, we can chat at the dinner table. Oh, my departure time is in the evening, so don't worry."

"Okay, just to tell you the story I learned today."

Xia De then picked up the cat at his feet and prepared to go out, while "she" beside his ear reminded softly:

[Praise her. 】

"I forgot to mention just now, Yin Luna, you are really beautiful today."

Xia De then said with a smile, a faint blush appeared on Yin Luna's face, she turned and walked down the steps, waiting for Xia De to close the door.

However, before Xia De changed his shoes, he felt the badge on his chest start to heat up. Sure enough, when he also walked out of the house, Miss Galina's carriage stopped at the gate of No. 6 Saint Teresa Square, and Tifa poked her head out of the window:

"Good afternoon, Shard, good afternoon, Miss Bayarth."

Yin Luna had a bad premonition, and the elegant maid had already opened the car door:

"The lady knows that Miss Bayas is leaving today, so I invite you to have lunch with her. The meal is ready, and the lady is waiting for you."

The seventeen-year-old girl had an unhappy expression on her face, but she couldn't get angry at the maid in front of her, because Tifa had done nothing wrong.

So Yin Luna turned her head to look at Xia De, although she didn't speak, her emotions were directly written on her face.

"Tifa, I've already made a restaurant reservation."

So Xia De said, showing an apologetic expression to Tifa, while the maid lady still had a smile on her face:

"Miss says she's going to give Miss Bayas something to help her get around Randall's Valley."

So Yin Luna could only board the carriage with an unhappy face, and went to the manor outside the city with Tifa and Xia De. After arriving at the manor, a sumptuous lunch was already prepared in the restaurant.

Miss Galina sat at the head seat at the end of the table, Xia De sat on her left, and Yin Luna sat on her right.

In fact, Yin Luna came to the manor yesterday to meet Miss Galina and told her that she was going to the Randall Valley, so Yin Luna thought at this time that the Duchess deliberately ruined her date.

But actually, Miss Galina really has something to say.

Seeing that Xia De was fighting with his cat~lightnovelpub.net~ to prevent the cat from peeking at the steak that was just served, and had no time to join the conversation, Miss Galina said to Yin Luna:

"Beas, Shade should have made it clear to you about the current situation in Randall Valley. The situation this time is different from the past. I expect to go to Randall Valley next weekend. And here Before, you need to do something, to do something for the Witch Council."

"Miss Galina, how are you going?"

Shad asked while restraining the cat with his arms.

"Sylvia, open the door."

The red-haired witch said succinctly:

"Since she invented that thing and gained enlightenment-[weaving] spirit runes, the power of space has also been enhanced. Sylvia will go to the Randall Valley one step ahead, and then hold a large ceremony with Benanis , directly expand the space channel, let us go there."
