This pair of siblings is really interesting...

. . .

While the three were talking, the carriage unknowingly returned to the mansion in the Whitechapel area.

"Once there is news, I will inform you immediately..."

"Ok."

After bidding farewell to Green, Lu Qi and Yiwei got out of the carriage together and entered the mansion.

Arriving in the hall, Alice was sitting on the sofa, reading a book with her arms in her arms. When she saw Evie, she immediately showed joy and jumped up from the sofa:

"Evie!"

"Alice!"

One big and one small beauties embrace each other, and the picture is very harmonious.

Maybe it's because I felt a kind of maternal love from Evie. When I was staying in the hotel, Alice liked to cling to Evie very much.

Of course, not to mention now...

I saw her holding Evie's arm, raised her head, blinked those innocent eyes, and said softly:

"Evie, you came just in time. Let me show you your room, okay? It's next door to mine."

"Okay!"

After giving Lu Qi a sorry look, Evie took Alice's little hand and walked towards the stairs together.

In the hall, only a poor handsome guy was left behind...

Chapter 243 The Ambiguity in the Carriage

Lurking in London for several years, the intelligence network established by Green is not in vain.

It said it took two days, but in fact it only took one day, and he handed over the complete list of guests for the birthday party to Lu Qi.

On the list, Green also carefully marked out several more suitable targets, as well as their identities, backgrounds and addresses.

After deliberating with Evie, he chose a congressman as the target to steal the invitation.

The other party is an alcoholic. He often brags and drinks in a certain chess and card club, and it is not uncommon for him to stay out all night.

As long as it is confirmed that he will not appear at the ball that day, Lu Qi and Yi Wei can use the invitation letter in his hand to enter the ball.

Fortunately, the invitations to the ball are all in a uniform format, without the names of the guests.

In other words, the royal guards at the gate only recognize the invitation letter, not the person.

Even a tramp, as long as he gets the invitation letter, takes a shower, changes into luxurious clothes, and rides in a carriage, he can pass the inspection of the royal guards and enter the ball!

There's no rush about the invitation letter, anyway, as long as you get it before the dance starts.

After determining the target, Lu Qi met with Police Officer Aibeling, known as the "Master of Disguise", to discuss the matter of smuggling the weapons in.

I learned from Ebelin that apart from the guests, only royal guards can enter the ball.

So, to smuggle weapons, he needs a guard's uniform to enter the ball disguised as a royal guard.

Obviously, this is a piece of cake for the assassin team.

Of course, like invitations, guard uniforms cannot be obtained in advance.

Otherwise, if a royal guard suddenly disappears, or a member of Congress disappears, it will only cause unnecessary trouble...

. . .

Time flies, and soon it is the day of the dance.

During this period, Jacob, who has been helping Adway Transportation Company to fight against competitors, also learned of the plan to sneak into the ball to find the Holy Shroud.

Originally, he was very interested in this noble ball held in Buckingham Palace, and wanted to go to the ball together.

However, under the persuasion of Lu Qi's reasons and Yi Wei's strong opposition, he had no choice but to give up this idea.

Although I always like to bicker with Evie and mock each other.However, Jacob, who is arrogant on the surface, still cares about his sister in his heart.

Unable to attend the ball together, he took the initiative to take on the task of stealing the invitation.

And Lu Qi found the royal guard who had been under surveillance for several days, knocked him out, took off his clothes, and sent someone to send him to France for a few days...

Hand over the guard uniforms and Hidden Blades to Abelin, Lu Qi and Evie put on ball gowns, got in a car, and headed towards Westminster District.

Watching the carriage go away, Green couldn't help murmuring:

"Wish you guys good luck..."

The night, street lights, and carriages driving slowly on the road form a unique picture that can only be seen in this era.

As soon as the carriage pulled out of the train station, Evie noticed keenly that Lu Qi, who was sitting opposite, seemed to be looking at her all the time.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. It's just... Evie, you look different today than usual."

Going to the ball, of course, you can no longer wear the assassin costume that is easy to move.

Therefore, Evie changed into a red low-necked dress, and on her swan-like neck, she wore a key necklace that opened the treasure house.

On that three-dimensional little face, makeup was applied, the blush covered the cute little freckles, and the heroism in the corners of the eyes was also replaced by the natural charm of a woman.

The Evie at this time, and the usual Evie, are like two people.

Hearing this, Yi Wei, who has always been generous, suddenly felt a little embarrassed, and unconsciously stretched out her hand to pull the broken flowers on the skirt, and asked in a low voice:

"Would it be weird?"

For some reason, Yi Wei's heartbeat accelerated suddenly, and she seemed to be very concerned about Lu Qi's next answer.

In the enclosed space, Evie's subtle changes did not escape Lu Qi's perception.

He just smiled and said softly:

"Of course not, you look beautiful."

This seemingly unintentional praise, like a stone thrown into a lake, caused ripples in the clear water of Evie.

Evie couldn't help raising her head, looked at Lu Qi's handsome face, blinked her eyes, parted her lips slightly, just about to say something.

And at this moment, a reminder from the coachman interrupted the ambiguity at this moment.

"We have arrived..."

It turned out that before he knew it, the carriage had arrived at the entrance to the side entrance of Buckingham Palace.

"Stop!"

As soon as the words fell, the royal guards in red uniforms and bearskin hats came to the carriage and looked in the window.

When he saw Lu Qi's Asian face, the surprise in his eyes was fleeting, and then he nodded politely to the other side, and then said:

"Good evening, sir and madam, please show your invitation letter."

Hearing this, Evie, who forcibly suppressed the fluctuations in her heart, handed over the invitation letter she had prepared long ago to the guard.

After confirming the royal seal on the invitation letter, the guard went through the window, looked at Lu Qi and Yiwei, and finally waved his hand and said:

"Please come in!"

After successfully passing the first checkpoint, the carriage slowly entered the royal palace with a history of more than 100 years.

Along the road, the carriage stopped in front of the main gate of Buckingham Palace.

Lu Qi, who was dressed in a black tuxedo, pushed the door to get out of the car, came to the door on the other side, stretched out his hand to Evie who was about to get out of the car, and said without forgetting:

"Ma'am, we're here!"

Evie was slightly surprised by Lu Qi's actions.

Surprised, she didn't hesitate at all, she put her hand on his very naturally, and walked out of the car gracefully.

"Thank you."

The place where the ball was held was not in the palace, but in a garden outside the palace.

Passing through the magnificent hall of the palace, the two came to the garden.

It was obviously a bit late when they arrived.The guests have basically arrived and are exchanging cups, chatting and laughing happily.

With the breeze blowing and the moon low, it's clearly a perfect day for a dance party...  

Looking around, Lu Qi couldn't help approaching Yiwei, and said in a low voice:

"It's not convenient for you to move around. Leave the task of finding the entrance to the treasure house to me. You go to Abelin first and get the equipment..."

"Are you going like this?"

Seeing the worry in Evie's eyes, Lu Qi smiled faintly, raised his hands, raised his hands to Evie, and said:

"Don't worry, even without the Hidden Blade, I can still protect myself."

Hearing this, Evie felt a little relieved, and said with concern:

"Then be careful."

"Well, after I find the entrance, I'll come back and meet you right away. Don't be kidnapped by other gentlemen..."

After leaving such a sentence, Lu Qi turned around and left, leaving only the beauty in the red dress who stood there, dreaming endlessly in his mind.

And all of this fell into the eyes of someone not far away...

Chapter 244 Grand Commander of the Templar Knights, see here!

"What are your intentions when you appear here..."

While muttering, standing in the side hall of the palace, Crawford Starry, holding a glass of champagne in his hand, had a gleam in his eyes.

Originally, he was invited to the ball just to get to know more politicians and find a way to draw these people into the Templar camp.

However, he never expected that at the ball, he saw something that haunted him in his dreams.

That is the key to the vault of the Shroud!

Although I don't know the woman in the red dress wearing the key to the treasure house, or the Asian man standing beside her.However, Starry guessed the identity of the other party just after thinking about it.

The woman is obviously one of the twin assassins who have been against the Templars and disrupted the order of London, Evie Frye!

And the man is the Asian assassin and leader of the Nighthawk Gang, Alex Mars, whom he dubbed "Wanted Criminal"!

The two people who were supposed to be hidden in the darkness appeared on such an occasion and brought the key to open the treasure house. After thinking about it, Starry quickly came up with an explanation:

They've found the location of the vault, and it's inside Buckingham Palace!

Thinking of this, Starry turned his eyes to Evie in the distance again, then put down the champagne in his hand, walked quickly towards the garden...

. . .

On the other side, Evie, who watched Lu Qi go away, took a long time to look away.

"Okay, don't bring your personal emotions into the mission, concentrate on it, Evie!"

After talking to herself, Evie suppressed the emotional fluctuations in her heart.

Just when she was about to take a step and wanted to meet Aibelin, someone suddenly grabbed her left hand!

When she turned around to look, she realized that the person who came was actually the Grand Master of the Templar Knights, Crawford Starry!

The other party seemed not at all surprised by her appearance, but stared at him closely with those aggressive eyes.

"Miss Fry...can I dance with you?"

Hearing this, Evie twitched her lips and smiled sarcastically, "Your Excellency Starry, I know you enjoyed the dance, but I still have things to do..."

"Really? Going to find the Shroud?"

Frowning slightly, the expression on Evie's face suddenly became serious, and said coldly:

"It's none of your business..."

After all, Evie just wanted to pull out the grasped hand, but couldn't do it. Starry's big hands, like iron clamps, did not relax at all.

"Miss Fry, if you don't want me to yell and call the guards, you'd better listen to me, don't you think?"
