This damn cat

Xie Lang knew he was a step too late, so he leaned on the armrest and warned the masked boy, "What do you want to do! This is an invitation letter from Her Royal Highness the Queen!"

"Really?" The young man resumed his casual posture just now, took two steps with his long legs, bent over to pick up the invitation letter on the ground, raised his hand and shook the trophy at Xie Lang: "Then you may have to let it go." The queen's dove."

"Give it back to me!" Xie Lang hurriedly chased down the stairs, but when he bypassed the two spiral staircases and arrived at the destination, the surrounding area was already empty.

The boy is gone.

They disappeared together with the queen's invitation letter.

"You all saw it!" Xie Lang hurriedly looked up to the fat boy for help: "That guy stole my..."

Before he finished speaking, he found that the teenagers who were standing upstairs watching the fun had also disappeared.

"Very good." Xie Lang took a deep breath, trying to keep calm, but still couldn't help venting in a low voice: "Maybe it's someone sent by the royal family to make things difficult for me."

I want to use this method to make him break the contract and be disrespectful, and disqualify him from being a companion.

Very good, the royal family is really good at maintaining their face!

"Do you think someone cares about the transfer places?" Xie Lang walked towards the gate of the palace with a cold face.

As soon as he entered the South Garden, two patrolling guards stopped his way and asked him to show his pass.

Xie Lang was about to explode: "Didn't you check it just now?"

One of the patrolling guards said: "The person you just encountered should not be us. This is a routine inspection. Please cooperate."

Xie Lang slowly closed his eyes, allowing himself to regain his sanity.

After a while, he opened his eyes calmly and resumed his polite attitude: "Excuse me, gentlemen, I'm here to attend the Halloween party. I'm an alumnus of His Highness. My invitation letter has just been…"

No one would believe that he was snatched from the palace, so he said, "I accidentally lost it. I couldn't find it anywhere, so I had to go home."

The two guards looked at each other, and one of them said to him, "Didn't you ask the steward to arrange someone to search for you?"

Xie Lang smiled wryly and shrugged his shoulders: "I don't think I'm a guest at the level of Zhuangdao. It's no big deal if I don't attend the party, so I don't need to work hard."

"Who invited you to the party?" Another soldier said, "You can ask the attendant to tell you and let him lead you in."

Xie Lang asked doubtfully, "Is it possible?"

So, he was "escorted" back to the East Hall by two guards, and found Qin Chengye, the housekeeper in charge of the gathering.

The guard explained what happened, and Mr. Qin asked Xie Lang politely: "I am happy to help you. May I ask which VIP you need to contact?"

"It's an invitation letter from Her Royal Highness the Queen."

Mr. Qin was taken aback, didn't say anything, just looked at the two guards with a look of "causing me trouble again".

The two guards immediately nodded their goodbyes and left the mess to Mr. Qin.

"It's inconvenient to invite the queen over, is it?" Xie Lang asked.

Mr. Qin immediately resumed his well-trained and respectful attitude, and replied with a smile: "Don't worry, son, it's not a big deal to lose the invitation letter, but Her Royal Highness the Queen didn't attend this party, so you won't be able to come for a while. Do you know anyone who attended the party?" What about the other children? As long as he can confirm your identity, you can enter."

Xie Lang looked at him and said: "You may also know that His Highness selected a companion to study a while ago. I am the selected one. I will transfer to the Royal Academy in a few days. I don't have any classmates I know at present."

The butler raised his eyebrows, looked Xie Lang up and down in surprise, and sighed, "So it's you?"

Shelan pursed her lips and smiled.

The butler's demeanor became warm and curious.

After chatting with Xie Lang for a while, the butler invited him to have a meal in the small living room first, waiting for the Queen's arrival.

This wait is an hour and a half.

The party was about to end, and the queen came to the small living room in a hurry, took off her hat and lace gloves as soon as she entered the door, and complained to the housekeeper, "Why didn't you notify me earlier?"

The butler knew that this was a polite word for the guests, so he didn't make excuses, but just nodded to express his apology.

"It really kept you waiting!" The queen apologized.

"It's okay madam." Xie Lang got up and saluted the queen.

"Look at what time it is, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with the party." The queen raised her hand to signal him to sit down and talk: "Why did you lose the invitation letter?"

The queen's puzzled look is not pretending, maybe it's really not behind the scenes.

Xie Lang didn't know whether he should reveal the prank of the masked kid, so he didn't respond for a while.

The queen said: "Forget it, there are so many opportunities to get together, I can't ask you to come here for nothing tonight, I will call Ziyao over, and you two will meet."

Xie Lang's heart tightened.

Lu Ziyao is His Royal Highness today.

Because of the royal family's privacy ban, no information about the prince has been exposed by the media so far.

And the girls from all over the country and even the world, relying on their powerful brain power, have formed various factions of "Prince Oga Fan Girl Group".

There is no other reason. Among the countries in the world, there are only three countries with dragon royal families. Among them, the appearance of the royal family of the Oga Empire has always had a crushing advantage over the dragon royal families of the other two countries. It belongs to relying on face to drive the development of tourism. His national treasure-level appearance is naturally famous.

Therefore, the prince's veil of mystery did not weaken his influence in the slightest.

Even Xie Lang, who never cared about gossip, could tell five versions of rumors about the prince.

Now to see the real person, somewhat nervous.

However, the housekeeper sent by the queen to look for the prince came back more than ten minutes later, and told the queen with a shameful face: "The prince is no longer in the palace, do you want to arrange a search?"

The queen frowned, and reproached in a low voice: "Didn't you say that he is not allowed to leave the East Hall tonight?"

"I'm very sorry." Although the butler apologized, he looked at the queen helplessly, as if to say, "Who can stand up to your son? Don't you know it yourself?"

The queen still knew it well, so she didn't criticize the housekeeper, but was a little impatient.

The transformation period of the prince is already a year and a half late, and ordinary dragon children are only half a year late at most.

If this continues, the rumors from all over the world will be unstoppable.

The children of the princes are eyeing the throne, but the majesty and the queen have only one child, and the matter of transforming the dragon is imminent.

The queen was determined to force her son to meet with the companion, so she said to Xie Lang: "It's getting late, why don't you stay in the palace tonight?"

Xie Lang: "I'm not prepared..."

"Whatever you need, the butler will prepare it for you."

Xie Lang couldn't think of a suitable reason to shirk, so he had to agree.

"Sitting is boring, I'll take you around to relax." The queen stood up and invited gently.

Xie Lang obediently got up and followed.

Said to be visiting, but Xie Lang was taken into the prince's bedroom by the queen, and he refused to leave after visiting for a long time, as if he was waiting for a rabbit.

But the prince is more exhausted than the queen, and he doesn't show his face, and after a while, an attendant comes in to report the official business and invite the queen to go.

Before the queen left, she was still not reconciled, so she handed over the task of waiting for the rabbit to Xie Lang, and asked him to go to the video game room in the bedroom to play games for a while.

Worried that Xie Lang was too cautious, the queen asked the attendants to retreat too.

So Xie Lang was left alone in the room.

As a cold-blooded killer, Xie Lang had never been so afraid of loneliness, and the occasional wind howling outside the window made his hairs stand on end.

The prince's bedroom is bigger than Xie Lang's house——

There is an automatic glass door on the south side of the room, and the video game equipment inside can be seen.

The northern passage leads to the activity room and restrooms.

The 180-degree circular balcony is a full-face floor-to-ceiling glass window, which can overlook the beautiful scenery outside the window.

Xie Lang stared at the video game room, because he didn't dare to turn around, because he always felt that there was someone in the dark passage behind him.

The horrible fantasy about being locked in the basement by the dragon came back to mind.

Scaring yourself is much scarier than horror movies.

The more you let yourself stop thinking about it, the more your imagination will be alive and kicking.

Not long after, Xie Lang seemed to hear the faint snoring of the dragon breathing from the bathroom...

Although he knew that the prince could not yet transform into a dragon, his imagination ignored the logic, and the auditory hallucinations became more and more realistic.

Out of the instinct of self-defense, he quietly drew the dagger from his lower back.
