Shade and Mrs. Cook looked out of place in the lively flow of people who came to attend and watch the ribbon-cutting ceremony. They stood in place and parted the flow of people, Xia De held his breath to distinguish the voices in his ears. This not only needs to be distinguished from the background sound more than ten minutes ago, but also from the current background sound.

After all, listening to the sounds of the past does not completely block the sounds of the present.

"This way."

Reluctantly heard the timid voice of the boy in front asking if he could leave, and then heard the gentle voice of comfort from the woman. Xia De waved to Mrs. Cook with a serious face, and the almost numb middle-aged woman followed instinctively.

Then the two squeezed through the crowds and walked east along the boulevard on the east side of Tobesk Station.

After crossing the boulevard, go north again, near the slums next to the station, which also provides a huge amount of cheap labor such as porters for the station.

There were far fewer pedestrians nearby, and Xia De was very glad that he did not lose track of him. But as he continued to walk forward, he heard someone calling his name. It took me a while to realize that it wasn't the sound of ten minutes ago, it was the sound of now.

Turning his head to look across the street, it was actually Captain Lades who came waving his hands. After a week without seeing him, he seemed to be in much better spirits, well dressed and without the slovenliness of an alcoholic.

"That's my friend, explain the situation now."

Turning his head and speaking to Mrs. Cook quickly, he continued to listen to the sounds around him and walked forward.

Just now, in order to explain that he was able to find clues, Xia De also asked passers-by many times on the way. But that was all to avoid Mrs. Cook, and only let her see the back. In fact, Shade didn't talk to anyone.

Once the direction of the voice is lost, it is almost impossible to find it again, so he has no time to say hello to acquaintances now.

The military temperament of Captain Rudds became particularly conspicuous after he came out of his decadent predicament. Mrs. Cook had no idea at all following Shade, but now seeing Captain Ladds approaching, she also followed the detective's intention and simply explained that the kind detective was helping her find the lost child.

"The child is lost? This is a big deal!"

The captain was startled, and seeing the detectives in front of him looking left and right, he followed behind them:

"Detective, I'm here to help. It just so happens that there is nothing to do during the day. What clues do you have now?"

"This way!"

Xia De pointed forward, with a serious expression on his face, making the captain, who didn't know what happened before, think that he had important clues in his hands.

Stop and go, actually walked a big circle around the Tobesk station, and more and more people nearby came to see the excitement. Because Queen Diana, who is the representative of the royal family, is about to arrive, the police are already blocking some streets, which makes Xia De feel the urgency:

"Why haven't you stopped yet? Did you know you were being followed?"

The West Street of Tobesk Station, where it is currently located, is the main stop for horse-drawn carriages. But at the same time, the alleys here extend in all directions, connecting many nearby blocks.

Every time they passed by the alley, Mrs. Cook and Captain Ladds behind them would take a look inward.

Finally, Xia De stopped and looked at the alley beside him.

In the alley, a plump woman with a headscarf wrapped around her head came in from another exit of the alley, and was walking towards the entrance of the alley where they were.

The voices from ten minutes ago, the voices of boys and women entered this alley. And the woman walking in front of her seemed to match the age of the owner of the voice.

In order to prevent the other party from turning around and running away, Xia De didn't ask aloud, but wanted to wait until the other party got closer before letting the other party speak, judging from the tone of his voice whether the woman in the turban was his target.

But I didn't expect Xia De to be cautious, but the other party was even more cautious.

After noticing the three people appearing at the alley, she subconsciously slowed down. Then she didn't know whether she recognized Mrs. Cook, or she was frightened by Captain Ladd's demeanor. She had a hesitant expression on her face, and then she turned around and ran away.

"It's her!"

The captain's excellent reflexes trained in the army made him the first to chase after him with a roar.

"Mrs. Cook, call the police for help. I suspect that your child is in a few alleys nearby. Remember, it must be said that this is where the murderer of the Tobesk children's serial disappearance is located. Be careful that they have accomplices!"

After speaking, Xia De also chased after him. When the tracking has been detected, and it is not clear which house in the nearby alley has a problem, catching the woman is the best breakthrough.

In fact, Shad now carries two guns with him. That Luger revolver from MI6, ready to go. But the woman was running away in the middle of the alley, and Xia De confessed that Mrs. Cook was delayed for a few seconds. He couldn't guarantee that his marksmanship could hit the target.

So he can only chase forward, but Xia De believes that with his physical strength as a ring warlock, he will definitely be able to catch up with the woman.

What he thought was still too simple.

Although there was no fork in this alley, the woman who started running first was the first to rush out from the other end of the alley panting, and then turned to the left.

Captain Ladds came out of the alley second, and after a few steps, he saw that Xia De actually overtook him. The young detective is athletic, and can display great speed even in crowded streets.

"Detective Hamilton, I'll take a detour to block her, you chase after her!"

Seeing this situation, Captain Lades decisively chose a more rational approach.

Xia De yelled at him to understand, stared at the woman in the crowd in front who kept pushing away pedestrians, and quickly chased after her.

Because it was too close to the station, and the flow of people was increasing, Xia De's speed could not be fully utilized, and the distance between the two did not quickly close. He actually thought of yelling loudly to ask the pedestrians in front to help arrest people, but he didn't expect that when he yelled, the people in front dodged one after another, making the woman run faster.

As for the police officers patrolling the street, because the environment was too noisy, they didn't hear Xia De's voice at all.

The two ran across the entire street one after the other, and the location directly opposite the street corner was the main entrance of Tobesk Station. The whistle can be heard from a distance, presumably there is a train arriving at the station.

At this time, there were large and small four-wheeled carriages parked at the entrance of the station, police officers in uniform with guns were maintaining order, and the reporters were looking into the distance, waiting for the protagonist of the ribbon-cutting ceremony to arrive.

The fat woman immediately turned around and ran towards the road on the left of the station entrance, not giving Xia De a chance to ask the police for help, unless he was willing to take a detour and waste time.

"I must catch up with you!"

Xia De immediately turned left at the intersection of the street, no longer wasted energy shouting, and ran forward along the gap in the flow of people by the wall.

After running less than a few dozen steps, I accidentally bumped into a nervous middle-aged man leaning against the wall. After quickly apologizing, Xia De stepped forward, while the middle-aged man put his hands in his pockets with a serious face, and ignored Xia De's disappearing figure, but continued to squeeze in front of the audience.

There were even more chaotic sounds from the distance of the road. The police cleared the way, escorted by the royal guards, and the carriage decorated with the coat of arms of the Cavendish royal family was slowly approaching.

People pay respects to the distinguished lady in the car on the side of the street. The car window is opened, and the face of Queen Diana, who often appears in newspapers, appears there. The makeup is not complicated. A woman in her thirties wears a silver crown. He waved to the citizens with a friendly smile.

There seemed to be other people sitting beside her.

The cheers and shouts around made the street more crowded and complicated. The lively atmosphere reached its climax, and the crowd crowded from the side of the street to the center of the street, so that the police and royal guards who maintained Ridwich Field had to allocate more people to prevent anyone from approaching the carriage.

The fat woman who ran ahead was the first to see the convoy approaching in the distance. She glanced back at the detective who was chasing him, getting closer and closer, with a grim expression, then gritted her teeth and rushed towards the convoy. But instead of approaching, he passed directly in front of the convoy, running from one side of the street to the other.

And when Xia De also wanted to cross the street, the uniformed police who opened the way in front had already blocked the street so that the convoy could move forward, and used a human wall to prevent anyone from coming into the street from the side of the street.

At this time Shad was only twenty steps away from the intersection behind him, and he could be seen from the gate of Tobesk Station.

"I dare to bet on luck, do you think I will lack such courage?"

He said in his heart, stopping, ready to squeeze through the wall and across the street before the convoy came, without the police not paying attention.

And the middle-aged man ~lightnovelpub.net~ that Xia De bumped into a few seconds ago has already squeezed in front of the crowd. He frowned and looked at the oncoming convoy. He pressed his black men's soft hat with his left hand, and his right hand, which was inserted into the inside pocket of his coat, remained motionless.

In the Tobesk station behind, a group of pedestrians poured out, these are passengers who have just arrived at the station. The ones who could come and go freely at the ribbon-cutting ceremony were, of course, the Orthodox Church. Ms. Bayas and her team walked out accompanied by a middle-aged man carrying a suitcase.

Dr. Schneider, who was watching from the crowd, was chatting with his acquaintances, and appeared from the street behind Xia De.

Miss Galina was sitting next to Queen Diana, looking out of the car window boredly.

Captain Rudds made a forward lunge behind the crowd on the other side of the street.

The detective's titular boss, Mr. Dark Andros, MI6 chief, mixed in with the crowd to observe the surrounding situation.

The carriage was getting closer and closer to the intersection in front of Tobesk Station, the ruts and the sound of horseshoes were drowned in the cheers that seemed to explode. The flocks of pigeons that had been prepared were released at the intersection, flying over people's heads in patches, forming large moving shadows.

The fog still hasn't dissipated, and the low and dark sky can't stop the cheers and joy of citizens of all walks of life in Tobesk.
