Start with the Readers Chapter 259: Dance
Hillston District, in a house with stables and gardens.
With a unique wide chin and dark green eyes, Qilingus glanced at the unconscious Baron Gramere on the ground, stripped off his clothes, and put them on himself.
Then, he leisurely walked to the full-length mirror, watching the black glove on his left hand squirm like digestion, and saw many distorted lines emerging from the back of it.
A few seconds later, Qilingus saw in the mirror that his nose became firmer, his eyebrows became thinner, his cheeks drooped, and his eyes turned light blue. The height, appearance, and temperament are all exactly the same.
Looking up and down several times, Qilingus gestured at the opponent's habitual movements, then bent down and twisted the real baron's neck, dragged it aside, and stuffed it into the closet.
"What a hypocritical and stupid aristocrat, let me waste so much time learning the weird pronunciation of certain words and the so-called aristocratic accent..."
Chilingos mocked with disdain, then put a few drops of a bottle of amber perfume on his wrist, then wiped it on different parts of his body, and then thought impatiently:
I don't know who collected the information, but even recorded how long this idiot used to wear perfume before attending the banquet... The collaborators over there won't buy any of his mistresses or head maids, right?
But I seem to have missed the time indicated in the information... It doesn't matter, who would care about how long it takes for others to wear perfume before participating in the banquet? Anyway, it is a brand, a smell.
Thinking of this, after ordering his servants not to enter his bedroom at random, Qilingus maintained his baronial demeanor and, accompanied by the butler, boarded the carriage.
…
At seven o'clock in the evening, a grand ball was going on in Duke Negan's mansion.
It is divided into two parts, one is the dance hall, which is located on the ground floor, covered with gorgeous stone slabs carved with complicated patterns, and there is an excellent band belonging to the Duke in the corner, along the stairs of the hall, it is located On the second floor, surrounded by a cloister, guests hold wine glasses, stand in front of the railing, and look down at the dance below, similar to enjoying fencing from the stands. From time to time, a gentleman walks up to the lady or wife to invite them to dance together , and if permission is granted, the two parties hold hands and walk down the stairs and enter the hall.
On the other side of the corridor not close to the hall, there are one door after another, and the back is basically the guest lounge.
But behind the opposite door is a corridor, with different plaster statues standing on both sides, all of which belong to the ancestors of the Negan family.
All the way to the end, you can see another part of the ball, which is also a hall, with long tables and all kinds of food and wine, and another band belonging to the Duke is for the guests Playing melodious and relaxing music.
In this hall, guests gather in groups of three or five, or sit or stand to exchange various things. Landscape and sky with red moon.
At this time, Abner was holding a glass of Auermeer red wine which was analyzed by the "Pure White Eye" and was shown to be genuine. them.
Although this glass of wine is not a collector's edition of 1286, it is also a high-end product produced around 1330, and the whole bottle is worth about 130 pounds.
Normally, Abner would never buy such an expensive red wine to drink, but now that there are people treating him, he will naturally enjoy it.
At this time, he saw a girl with shiny blond hair and softly draped her head up the stairs after dancing the opening dance.
Her eyes are emerald green, as beautiful as gemstones, and it seems that there is a vortex hidden in the sea, so that the observers can hardly take their eyes off.
But what attracted Abner's attention was a ring inadvertently revealed by the other party.
The ring was inlaid with red and black gemstones, with a strange shape and dazzling brilliance. It was the "false anger" he had sold at the Tarot Club before.
This girl is Miss Justice? It really deserves to be "the most dazzling gem in Backlund"!
Abner secretly admired twice, then withdrew his gaze. He didn't come here today to meet "netizens" offline, but to ensure that the "plot" was staged normally, so Miss "Justice", an important "actor" in this incident, he didn't intend to contact, In order to avoid "butterfly" accident.
On the other hand, Audrey didn't notice Abner's "scrutiny", because there were so many gentlemen looking at her at the moment, and even quite a few of them were ready to move and wanted to come over to invite a dancer.
It's really boring, but I can't help but participate... Hey, can't they let me observe there quietly? I have to say, some people have really rich expressions when they dance, it always reminds me of those courting animals...
After sighing helplessly, Audrey suddenly had an idea in her heart. Before the gentlemen invited her, she took two quick steps and stepped onto the corridor leading to the "restaurant".
At the same time, in a corner of the corridor on the second floor, two ladies who were not very popular and were not invited to dance were leaning on the railing and chatting.
One of them is Miss Hazel, who came with Abner. After the incident at the headquarters of the "Daily Observer", she was vaguely rejected by the gentlemen of the upper class. After such a long time, she I have long been used to it, and even feel a little cleaner, so I am very calm.
The other is Emma, the youngest daughter of Viscount Horatio. She was disgusted by many people because she did a lot of outrageous things in the stage of "swindler". With a reputation of "weird" personality, he is naturally left out in the corner now.
However, the two ladies were not in a mood of depression. Emma was holding a drink, pointing her mouth in the direction of Abner at the stairs, and said, "Look, Abner seems to be taken by the 'Baker'. Rand's most dazzling gem' is attracted."
Hazel glanced at her, and said coldly: "Who is he attracted to, what does that have to do with me?"
"Aren't you on good terms? I heard that you also revealed some things about me to him." Emma rolled her eyes and asked insincerely.
"He cut off my arm... Is this kind of relationship good?" Hazel puffed her cheeks inelegantly, and then shot back, "Your topic has been revolving around him, you and his The relationship is really good, right? Otherwise, he wouldn't have sold me out."
So you really told Abner about me... I thought it was just an excuse he just made up...
He was thoughtful, but on the surface Emma admitted with a smile without any embarrassment: "I really have a good relationship with him..."
Hazel frowned when she heard this, thinking that Detective Brian really didn't know Emma at least two weeks ago, how long has it been since they are so familiar? Could it be that the rumors about Detective Blaine were true? He is very playful and good at pleasing girls?
But he didn't show this side in Harvest Church...
Relying on the insight of a "cryptographer", Emma easily guessed what Hazel was thinking. way.
…
Abner, who was talked about by the two ladies, became tense after Audrey walked into the corridor leading to the restaurant, because it meant that the disguise of "Vice Admiral Hurricane" was about to be seen through, and "Plot "It's about to start.
He glanced at the huge crystal chandelier hanging from the roof, and then at the unsuspecting guests in the ballroom on the first floor.
If everything remains the same, Qilingus will use the "wind blade" to cut the metal chain of the chandelier in a while, causing chaos...
When such a heavy chandelier falls, the people below may suffer many casualties...
Since encountering it, do what you can, and save it if you can.
The behavioral principles that he set for himself before flashed through his mind, and Abner made a decision in his heart.
Although he needs to ensure that the "plot" is staged tonight, saving the people in the ballroom will not have much impact on the "plot"~IndoMTL.com~ Holding the wine glass, he walked to the corner of the corridor, and came in front of Miss Emma and Hazel.
"Abner, do you want to ask me to dance?" Emma asked with a smile when she saw him coming.
Abner just greeted her politely, then turned around to face Hazel, saluted with standard movements: "Miss Hazel, can I ask you to dance?"
Hazel glanced at him, then said in silence for a few seconds:
"It is my pleasure."
She then extended her metal palm.
Abner grabbed her politely, walked along the stairs to the first floor, entered the dance floor, and danced lightly and lively to the melody.
Emma, who was left in the corridor on the second floor, frowned at this time. She could see something was wrong from Abner's attitude, and although the other party didn't express it clearly, he posed to her secretly when he finally turned around. waved.
Since coming into contact with that detective, he has rarely been so serious and solemn... Is this going to be a big deal? Well, no matter what, I'll go and avoid it first... At this time, the restaurant should be safer!
After making up her mind, Emma left the corner angrily, regardless of other people's gazes, and walked along the corridor to the direction of the restaurant.
On the dance floor, directly below the dome chandelier.
Abner glanced at Hazel's soft but expressionless face, and asked solemnly:
"What is the maximum weight of your arm made by ancient alchemy?"
