Mystery: Mr. Witch and Ms. Hunter

Chapter 374 Constantine and Wendy

At eight o'clock in the evening, Adele arrived at the captain's room of the "Snow Wind" on time, waiting for Wendy and Constantine to come back.

Her own belongings had been moved out in advance, including some of Frank Lee's mushrooms that she had brought with her just in case.

If I had left those mushrooms on the boat, I might have met Wendy's baby earlier...

Adele shook her head and stopped thinking about it.

After a few minutes, there was a knock on the door. Adele got up and opened the door. Wendy and Constantine walked into the captain's room together.

"How was your fun?" Adele asked with a smile.

"I'm very happy. Constantine is very familiar with the local customs and practices in this area. The southern continent dishes in the restaurant are also very delicious."

Wendy was still not satisfied, and enthusiastically told Adele about her experiences of the day. Adele listened with a smile on her face, occasionally agreeing with her.

The relationship between these two people developed really fast...

After pouring two cups of black tea for the two of them, Adele calmly returned to her seat.

Perhaps because of his Southern Continent ancestry, Constantine was quite active in expressing his feelings, and Wendy was clearly unable to resist. In less than a month, the two had already developed into a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, but it was not known whether they had reached the final step.

But these have nothing to do with me...

Adele thought secretly. Wendy was just a member of her crew, and Adele didn't care about her private affairs: if she thought the other party was good, she would continue to date him, and if she thought it was not suitable, she would break up. Anyway, with Adele's support, Wendy was unlikely to be cheated too badly by the other party.

In fact, Adele objectively viewed Constantine from an outsider's perspective and thought that he was a good dating partner. As a member of the "Green Fingers", an elite Beyonder team of the Church of Mother Earth, he matched Wendy in terms of looks, social status, and sequence, and was even more outstanding.

Comparing the treatment between the two parties, even if Constantine really has improper thoughts about Wendy, what can he want? Is it for the two thousand pounds salary that Wendy owes me?
Adele found herself laughing and quickly picked up the teacup to cover it up.

"But by the way, Captain, how did you move your things out?"

Constantine was obviously not as excited as Wendy. He noticed the difference in the room the moment he entered. He waited until Wendy's excitement had passed and she had almost finished sharing her own story with Adele before he found the right time to ask.

"Oh, that's what I want to tell you tonight."

Adele coughed lightly and put on a serious expression. "I received a transfer order from the Navy Headquarters this morning. Tracy will be in charge of the privateering plan for the time being. I have been assigned to Port Berens to investigate the smuggling case of Ayahuasca."

"What, are we going to act with Tracy next?"

Wendy was surprised and quickly interrupted.

"Yes, and Natalie and the others will also be dispersed to other fleets of the navy. Except for Leila, who is not yet an adult, everyone else will follow you, but not on the Snow Wind."

Adele tried her best to keep her tone unchanged. After all, she was now the leader of a not-so-small force. Even if she had similar thoughts in her heart, she couldn't show that she was willing to suffer a loss in front of others.

"Leila has been with me all this time. After all, she is not yet an adult, so it is too early for her to go to the real front line."

Adele gave a few simple instructions, "Are you two okay?"

Although Adele knew in her heart that the shadow of war would not fall on someone just because they were underage or for some other reason, there was no need to involve the younger generation in a meaningless war unless the situation was extremely critical. On this point, Adele did not want to compromise in advance.

After explaining everything, Adele looked at Wendy and the others, waiting for their reactions.

Wendy and Constantine looked at each other and nodded.

"Since you've arranged it this way, then we'll have no problem." Constantine nodded, picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip, "It's just that Tracy's side..."

"She should be fine. Officials have confirmed her reliability."

Adele spoke vaguely, also not telling the two her speculation about Tracy's position.

"As for whether you need to continue monitoring her, it depends on your orders. If they agree to cancel the monitoring of Tracy, then you can terminate the mission and don't leave any handle for others."

"My things have been taken away during the day, so I won't stay on the boat today."

After explaining everything that needed to be explained, Adele let out a long sigh, picked up her bag, and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, Adele turned her head and glanced at Wendy, who was standing with Constantine, ready to see her off.

"Take good care of my boat. We'll need it when we return to Port Indo." Adele paused for a moment, then said seriously, "If the boat sinks, the money for repairs will be deducted from your salary."

"Ah, this..."

Wendy's expression suddenly became very interesting, and she felt her heart skip a beat.

"Okay, I was just kidding."

Adele giggled, then waved her hand and walked slowly down the corridor of the ironclad ship.

"Really? I was so scared..." Wendy complained with lingering fear when she saw Adele's figure disappear at the end of the corridor.

"If you think about it, you know it's a joke."

Constantine smiled and said, "But things have not been peaceful recently, and it's not just on the battlefield."

"Is there any new notification from the church?" Wendy asked curiously.

"Some 'Green Fingers' are currently investigating members of the secret organization 'The Secret Order'. Their leader Zaratul once cooperated with the Rose School."

Constantine pretended to be mysterious and said, "According to the information revealed by the members of the secret society we captured, the historical projections of Zaratul that had been in regular contact with them all disappeared not long ago. Before that, these historical projections always appeared frequently, trying to promote His awakening."

“What are historical projections? What does it mean when they disappear?”

Wendy couldn't help but ask, but Constantine pressed his finger on her lips.

"I've already said a lot of things...the rest is confidential." Constantine and Wendy looked at each other, and Wendy couldn't help but look away.

"Of course, if you are willing to believe in the Mother Goddess with me, I may consider telling you...Okay, I'm just saying."
