A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world
Chapter 365: The increasingly weird social scene
I gritted my teeth and recalled what the head maid had taught me...
"I" and Carrie walked slowly into the banquet hall, one after the other.
It seemed that the banquet had not officially started yet, and the guests who arrived earlier were still forming groups and socializing freely, so no one paid attention to us.
After walking a few steps, he ran into the head maid.
The head maid was slightly stunned, then walked towards us.
"Why are you two here? Weren't we supposed to let you go to the kitchen?"
"Maid, I finished my work ahead of schedule and was about to go back to rest when I ran into the old... no, the nanny who manages the shack... She said that the banquet hall was short of staff... so..."
"Nonsense..." the head maid said angrily.
"Leave here quickly and don't go near the banquet hall tonight." The head maid said and started to drive us away.
"But the back door is locked...I can't go back..."
You know, during the banquet, maids are not allowed to pass through the main entrance...
"......Alas......" The head maid closed her eyes and sighed helplessly.
"Go to the East Ballroom...and no matter what happens, don't come out."
Finally, the head maid pointed out the way, but from her tone, it seemed as if she had given up struggling.
"Yes......"
Although she wanted to ask the head maid what would happen at the banquet, Carrives finally decided to keep quiet. At this moment, she knew that it was right to listen to the head maid and just follow her instructions...
......
The banquet hall is actually divided into several venues.
The East Banquet Hall is one of the smaller areas. It is not very important and its decoration is obviously inferior to that of the main venue. Therefore, the guests who come here are naturally small businessmen of average status and strength.
As soon as "I" and Carrie entered the East Ballroom, we saw this scene:
A red-faced man, holding a wine glass in his hand, stood in the middle of the banquet hall, staggering and giving a speech.
"...So, ladies and gentlemen, I think that the Azrael Chamber of Commerce invited the Gipler Chamber of Commerce in preparation for... Ka! Who is in favor, who is against?"
As he spoke, the man made a gesture of wiping his neck, and everything was self-explanatory.
People in the banquet hall either stayed away from him or gathered around him to watch the fun.
Hey... How can someone get drunk before the party even starts...
"Mr. Drunkard, you have no evidence to prove what you said. The relationship between the two major chambers of commerce, Azrael and Giprecampino, is not so good, but it is not necessary to make it public..." said a bystander.
However, such words are tantamount to provocation to a drunk person.
The drunkard stepped forward and grabbed the onlooker by the collar, tilted his head, stared, and said:
"Don't believe it? I spent a lot of gold coins... to buy the information from 'Nether Fire'. How dare you say... hiccup! 'There is no evidence'?"
and many more......
I was a little confused at this moment. Where did this drunkard buy the information from? Nether Fire?
But most people don’t actually know the relationship between Netherfire and the Azrael family.
So could this be considered a preview of what the Azrael Chamber of Commerce itself is about to do?
No... Judging from the meticulousness of Netherfire's actions five years later, they would not easily reveal such information to unrelated people and increase the risk of exposure for a little bit of intelligence fee.
Besides, it sounds like the Jiple Chamber of Commerce and the Azral Chamber of Commerce are sworn enemies.
How could one be so careless when facing an equally powerful enemy?
so......
Was it false information? Was it information deliberately released by Netherfire?
What's the purpose? To confuse others?
I know that when it comes to guessing people's minds, my brain is sometimes not good enough. If it were Master, he would definitely know the mystery...
"Oh... I see..." Mr. Maxim, who had been as silent as I had been, suddenly made a sound of sudden enlightenment.
"Monsieur Maxime?"
"I finally understand everything."
Mr. Maxim was about to explain when something strange happened in his dream.
"If you don't believe it...if you don't believe it..." The drunk man's eyes suddenly became blurred. He looked around and finally his gaze fell on us.
"Aren't there... two of Azrael's maids? Just ask them and you'll know."
As he spoke, the man pushed away the guest who was grabbed by the collar and walked towards us.
"Another drunkard...I can't stand it..." Careff cursed in a low voice.
"Wu Yue... go, I'll stop him."
"Want to leave? Isn't it obvious that you have something to hide? Stop right there! If I don't explain it clearly today, you'll be wasting the money I spent!"
The man rushed over immediately. A drunk man really doesn't care about anything. It can be seen that he really cares about his money...
Just when the man was about to grab me by the collar...
A familiar figure stood in the middle, allowing the man to bump into him, but he remained motionless and instead knocked the man to the ground.
"This gentleman seems drunk. I will take you to rest."
It was Lalanoya's father, a man whose name was still unknown.
At this moment, he is obviously mostly acting. How could he be so elegant and easy-going in real life?
The man who was knocked down sobered up a little after this, but it was still not enough. He still sat on the ground and cursed the guy in front of him.
Lalanoya's father said nothing, walked up to the man, helped him up, and then forcibly "supported" him and left the banquet hall.
Before leaving, he looked back at the two of us and shook his head.
"Wu Yue, I have a bad feeling..." Carrie murmured as she looked at the man's back as he walked away.
Everything is so abnormal today.
......
As guests arrive one after another, the banquet is about to officially begin.
Peeking out from the East Ballroom, you can just barely see the main venue.
The young new president was standing with a few people, talking and laughing. The whole venue looked peaceful. It looked like just an ordinary "grand banquet"...
This is a social arena for the upper class, and is often also a "battlefield" where conspirators play power games and engage in secret struggles.
This weird atmosphere was finally broken by the last heavyweight guest.
"Haha, it's really fucking lively. If we don't tell anyone, who would know that this is for a dead person?"
The rough and loud voice bombarded the ears of everyone at the banquet...
