Miss Luisa didn't search for a rental carriage at the street corner but walked two blocks with Shard before abruptly turning into a small, inconspicuous alleyway. After traversing some distance in the alley, she surprisingly pulled out a key and opened the door of one of the houses.
"Shard, we can't possibly have just one hiding place, can we?"
As she opened the door, she said to Shard with a smile:
"I bet Annette, Priest Augustus, and the doctor also have a similar second hideout for storing sensitive items that they don't often use."
The house, which served as a sort of "safe house," wasn't rented but was bought by Miss Luisa at a low price through her family connections. Although the price was reasonable, the living conditions were very poor, and Miss Luisa didn't consider it her home, using it merely as a temporary storage facility.
According to her, apart from herself, Shard was the second person to know this location.
"Should I feel honored?"
