MTL - Whispering Verse-Chapter 27 Goodbye La Soya

Miss Mia Gold, the owner of the little orange cat, was not at home. Xia De stood outside the fence door and rang the bell for a long time, but no one came out to open the door.

But this sound alarmed the neighbor next door. It was an old woman who was walking bent over and wearing glasses. Her gray hair was neatly combed together, she was well dressed, and she wore silver ornaments on her wrists:

"Who are you looking for?"

She spoke with a strong accent, and asked as she stood in front of the fence between her garden and Miss Gold's garden.

"Miss Mia Gold, she commissioned us to find her cat."

Xia De also shook the cat in his arms. The orange cat let out a lazy meow, turned over and put its head on Xia De's chest. This cat really likes Xia De.

And even though the half-year-old orange cat was not heavy, Xia De couldn't take it anymore after carrying him all the way.

"It's it, this naughty little thing."

The old woman obviously knew the orange cat, Mia, and said something that nearly broke Xia De:

"Mia moved out last week."

"Um?"

Fortunately, there is another sentence:

"Are you Detective Hamilton who found the cat for her? You are much younger than Mia described, don't worry, she left you a letter."

Then he turned and went back to his house to get the letter. When he came back, he said:

"There are some banknotes in the letter. Check the wax seal before you open it. Don't say that anyone has touched these money."

The letter was left by Miss Mia Gold to Detective Sparrow Hamilton. It mentioned that Miss Gold would move to a large manor in the countryside on the east coast of the Kingdom of Delarion because of family matters, and live with her parents. lived, so sold the real estate here.

But Ms. Gould still remembered her cat and the commissioned detective. Without confirming whether the detective found the cat, she left this letter for the neighbor to keep. If the detective found the cat, she could get the letter:

[I can't forget my little Miya, but now it's really time to leave Tobesk. Detective Hamilton, if you see this letter, please temporarily take Miya in and send a letter to the address below, and I will pick her up at your office within half a year at the latest. At that time, more rewards will be paid.

Note: In addition to the original detective fee, there is an extra five pound note attached to the letter, as a temporary shelter for Mia, please don't criticize my little rascal too much. 】

The orange cat called "Mia" squirmed in Xia De's arms, and seemed to want to sleep, unaware of the fact that its master had left.

"Why......"

"I'm allergic to cats, and Mia couldn't find anyone else to take care of the cats for her, and she didn't expect you to be able to find Mia."

The old woman said that she had never met Sparrow Hamilton, and recognized the young detective in front of her as the original detective.

"Then I..."

"You can adopt Mia for the time being. When Mia finds her, she won't give you less money. You see, she even took the cat's name as her own."

"Aren't you..."

"Mia dictated the content of this letter before she left. Hmph, I've been her neighbor for so long, can't she still give me such trust?"

"Well, I'll go and post the letter. Good-bye, ma'am."

Xia De had some doubts that the old woman could read minds.

"Good-bye, detective. Remember, this cat cannot drink cow's milk, but goat's milk."

The old woman's voice came from behind, and Xia De's expenses increased.

Detective Sparrow Hamilton and Miss Mia Gold have known each other for a long time, and this is not the first commissioned incident, so Miss Gold has given the detective a lot of trust.

This trust gave Xia De an extra job of taking care of the cat, and increased his savings by more than seven pounds. Miss Gao De really spent a lot of money.

With the remaining money from the **** stick, Shade seemed to be able to make up ten pounds soon. And if luck is better, and Miss Gao De can receive the letter within a week and rush over, Xia De might be able to directly pay off all the debts for this month.

Because of this good mood, when he walked back to the Saint-Andrés Square with the cat in his arms, his steps were much lighter. On the way back, I happened to pass by the Silver Parrot Milk Distribution Company, which I visited not long ago, so I went in and inquired, and learned that goat milk can also be delivered here.

The salesman in charge of contacting Xia De even saw Xia De's attempt to feed the kitten with goat milk, and therefore introduced him more cat raising skills. But his enthusiasm did not make Xia De compromise on the money for ordering goat milk. Fortunately, No. 6, Plaza Saint Teresa, located in the city center, is the hardworking milkman of the Silver Parrot Milk Distribution Company, the only way to pass every day .

Therefore, there is no need to open up additional detours for the delivery of Shade, so the cost of goat milk is actually less than imagined.

Xia De regards the orange cat "Mia" as his lucky cat. When he left the "Silver Parrot Milk Delivery Company", he was still thinking about being extravagant and eating better food at noon.

Just past the old dog lying at the door, the voice of a woman who hadn't made a sound until today finally sounded in his head:

[Look at her ring. 】

Immediately raised his head and looked around, and almost a second later, he saw Mrs. Lawrence's mistress, Mrs. La Soya, who came out from the alley opposite the milk company and turned to the bank where the battle took place the day before yesterday. directions to the appliance store.

She still wears the white pebble ring.

"Is she male to female, or female to male?"

Xia De guessed in his heart, but he had no intention of following up. He cherishes his own life, and since he has decided to give up this commission, he will not change his mind out of curiosity.

If he had the power of Dr. Schneider or the female writer Miss Dorothy Louisa, of course he would not give up. But people have to face the reality, he accepts that he is still weak.

With a happy mood, I walked leisurely across the street with the cat in my arms, and entered the candy store opposite. Pretending to be curious, he asked about the price of the small cakes in the glass window. After confirming that Mrs. La Soya had gone far away from the corner of her eye, she immediately walked out of the store and entered the alley where Mrs. La Soya appeared just now.

The alley is not deep, like most alleys in this steam city, it is dirty and full of peculiar smell. After a few quick steps, we came to the end, where some abandoned pipes were piled up, and there was even a layer of disgusting green moss attached to the surface of the pipes.

After bypassing the pipeline, I saw that there is a wall behind the pipeline, which is a dead end.

It was supposed to be able to reach another block from the other end of the alley, but the store at the other end of the exit expanded its footprint without authorization, and forcibly blocked the alley with a rear wall.

"There is an excellent blind spot between this pile of pipes and the wall. Mrs. La Soya just walked out of the alley with no exit. Could it be that she completed another 'transformation' of kissing the ring here?"

Xia De thought, very satisfied with his prudence and strong mobility. Although he didn't dare to follow up, it was okay to investigate what the other party did just now.
