The two girls were preparing to leave together, and Shade also picked up his clothes and prepared to go out. He still had many things to deal with this Friday.

Since he has to travel around the city, in addition to those investigative tasks, he also has to go to the MI6 base to deal with tax issues, go to the gas company and the steam company to inquire about the price of installing pipelines, and go to the "Steambird Daily" to tell the next story.

Calculate the monthly advertising costs.

"Shadow, can I take your cat away? Since you are going to keep it at home anyway, why not let me take it with you. You have been to our place, and I think little Mia will become friends with our cat.

"

Before leaving, Iluna also suggested. Luvia stood aside with a smile, already knowing the result, while Shade looked back and stood on the sofa, preparing to send him downstairs, and then quietly enjoy being alone at home with a cat.

Happy orange cat:

"If you can get its consent, I have no problem with it."

he said with a smile.

"Oh, little Mia, come here."

So the girl in the skirt clapped her hands at the small orange cat, who looked at her with big eyes suspiciously, then raised her front paws and rubbed her face, but otherwise did nothing.

"Iluna, I think this means rejection."

No matter how Iluna feels, at least Luvia is in a good mood right now.

The three of them separated downstairs. Shade took the information given by Iluna and walked for twenty minutes to No. 6 Squirrel Alley.

Squirrel Alley is an ordinary alley in the east district of Tobesk City. Most of the people who rent here are working in relatively respectable jobs such as clerks, accountants, and scribes nearby. Although their income is not high and they cannot be called the standard middle class, at least they do not have to.

It takes too much physical labor to feed your family.

No. 6 Squirrel Alley is a common rental apartment in the city, with a total of three floors. The landlord's family lives on the first floor, the second floor is rented to a family of clerks who work in the city hall's logistics department, and the third floor belongs to a man from his hometown.

Students who come to Tobesk and study at the local Tobesk Secondary Mechanical College.

A month ago, Sal Haq, the resident on the third floor, unfortunately passed away, and there were reports of hauntings. Before the task was assigned to Iluna's team, the church had sent ordinary priests holding magical items to look at it.

No traces of evil spirits were found, and there was no definite evidence of the so-called "haunting" from beginning to end, and no one was injured.

The landlord's family and the residents on the second floor have now moved out, so Blackstone Security Company believes that this task is not of high importance.

Because it is close to the city center, the alley itself is relatively clean. However, the road is a bit narrow and may not be enough for a carriage to pass. After entering the alley, Shade stepped on the gravel on the ground and looked at the rusty house numbers one by one.

There were mostly masonry walls on both sides, with steam pipes covered with heat insulation attached to the walls, but the rivets fixing the pipes were mostly rusty. After passing a stone arch connecting the buildings on both sides of the alley, I saw that

The locked door.
