Is boyfriend the dark knight today? [Comprehensive British and American]

In the main hall, the hired band members were terrified, but considering the high remuneration, they were still playing music dutifully.

However, none of the guests have the heart to appreciate these.

Dawn walked into this space and saw such a scene.

The banquet hall, which lost those smirks and hypocritical politeness, was as quiet as a classroom after the teacher in charge got angry. Most of the people hadn't come out of the shock just now, and they were sitting in the rest area with dazed faces.The huge space with almost no vocals is audible against the melody played by the band.

The man stood in the middle of the hall and coughed lightly, and the eyes of the whole room immediately focused on him.

The gaze cast now is completely different from when he was surrounded by the crowd before.

These people who received the invitation originally had no business relationship with him, and they always wanted to cooperate with Dawn Enterprise.How flattering they had been to Dawn when they came, how much they feared him now.

Dawn didn't care about that.

He had no intention of reaching any cooperation with these people, and he was not afraid that these people would have a negative impression on him, otherwise he would not have chosen to invite Yabu at this dance.And where the power and ability of the Dawn family are, there will always be people flocking to them.

It's just that Yabu's troubles were beyond his expectations.The man originally expected that this was just a shocking warning, and he did not intend to take action against the opponent.What's more, judging from his investigation of the heir of Yabu's family, he shouldn't have the courage to do such a thing.

"I have informed the captain of the other cruise ship that they will arrive in an hour," he said. "At that time, you can leave on your own."

"I apologize for the unexpected shock you received today." As he spoke, Dawn bowed slightly without much sincerity.He said he was bowing, but in fact he seemed to be nodding slightly, and there was even that unconcerned smile hanging on the corner of the man's mouth.

Looking more and more like a reckless playboy.

After Dawn finished speaking, he didn't even think about staying with these frightened guests, turned around and left.

The ball was originally just a part of Dawn's journey. After the dance, the guests would be picked up by another passenger ship that had been arranged long ago, and Dawn would continue his journey on the Lin Lang.

……

Bruce stood at the window of his room facing the sea, lowering his head slightly to stare at the rippling sea level.

Because of material constraints, the bug he made didn't last long.According to Bruce's estimation, once he remotely turned on the radio function of the bug, it can last for up to 15 minutes.In this way, seizing the moment becomes very important.

Dawn's most trusted subordinate on this ship is O'Brien. If there is any real communication, it can only happen when these two people are alone.

The guests invited to the ball hadn't left yet, and as the host, it was impossible for Dawn to leave these people behind for a long time.And O'Brien is also responsible for handling some chores.If the two want to talk about something, it is only possible after seeing off those guests.

Bruce had a lot of doubts in his heart—not to mention anything else, Yabu was the guest that Dawn specially named to invite at that time, but this happened today... It's hard to say whether Dawn had expected such a situation before. out.

He didn't care much about Dawn's purpose for Yabu. What Bruce cared about was—was Dawn trying to test him in this distress?

No matter how unintelligent a person is, he can clearly know that the attitude of his immediate boss is closely related to his future, not to mention that Bruce has never been a fool.It is very important to find out what Dawn thinks, especially when Solan is hostile to him because of the previous oolong rumor, as the patriarch Tang.Dawn's thoughts will largely affect Bruce's future arrangements.

According to his original speculation, even if Dawn didn't trust himself, he should put more emphasis on observation rather than temptation.

Dawn's behavior of testing himself can only make Bruce have two thoughts: If the other party doesn't fancy his ability and wants to use it for himself, it is very likely that Dawn is also hostile to him.

He waited with uncanny patience.

After standing at the window for a long time, the hull under his feet finally began to shake. Bruce concentrated his mind and glanced at the time on the watch.

This is the arrival of the cruise ship to pick up those guests.

The connection between the two ships was on the other side, and Bruce could not see the other cruise ship from his room. He could only judge the movement of the cruise ship by the shaking of the hull and the ripples on the water surface.

After about 10 minutes, the Linlang shifted obviously again, probably because the guests had already left.

Bruce watched the circles of ripples on the surface of the water until he saw two rings passing by that obviously didn't originate in the same place.

He glanced at the time again, took out his mobile phone, and remotely turned on the radio function of the bug through the Bluetooth signal that had been connected long ago.

The mobile phone made two beeps of unstable signal, and then there was the sound of a conversation.

"——how do you see it?" An endless question came out from the speaker of the mobile phone, which sounded very clear, without any blurring that Bruce expected due to the cloth blocking or the distance.

"Yab's behavior was a little too impulsive." It was O'Brien's butler's voice. "He has absolutely no ability to successfully complete his plan."

Bruce listened intently, as if the two happened to be talking about what happened at the dance just now.His estimated time was just right, and he didn't miss much content.

"Abu, you have read his profile, do you think Yabu can do such a thing by himself?"

In another room, Dawn looked at his loyal housekeeper with a smile.

"No." O'Brien said, "According to previous information, Mr. Yabu has a conservative personality and is unwilling to take too many risks. The upper echelons of the Yabu family have always had some opinions on this heir because of this."

Dawn chuckled.

O'Brien was silent for a while, and did not wait for the master's reply: "According to current speculation, it is very likely that someone deliberately encouraged Yabu to assassinate Mr.

Dawn didn't agree or deny, but instead asked another topic: "Did Yabu's accomplices get caught?"

Bruce listened carefully to the voice coming from the microphone.

He didn't hear the previous conversation, but for a prudent and conservative person to make such a desperate move tonight, he absolutely needs to be lured by multiple benefits, or to make the other party think that he has been cornered. There is no other way to go.

Based on what Dawn had said to Jacob earlier, Bruce tended to think it was the latter.

Even if the Yabu family has not been investigated, just judging from the tone of Dawn and O'Brien, it is definitely a power far inferior to the Dawn family.Under such circumstances, it was really hard to imagine that Yabu would confront Dawn so directly.

The person who encouraged Yabu to assassinate Dawn must be very trusted by Yabu and has other plans.If there is no accident, this person is likely to be the guy who helped Yabu destroy the switch today.

The conversation on the other side continues.

"It's one of Yabu's bodyguards." O'Brien said, "In addition, the relatives Yabu brought this time have confirmed that they are not suspicious, and let them leave according to your instructions."

"bodyguard?"

A moment of silence.

"There is a high probability that that person has already left." Dawn said, "Go and check the family members he brought."

"Jabu don't move yet," he continued. "Mikhail Nikolaevich will be happy to help him deal with it. I don't want to be ruined while on vacation."

"Yes." O'Brien replied respectfully.

There was another silence.For a long time, all Bruce heard was a rustling noise from the speakers.

"There are also some people in the family who can't hold back anymore." Dawn's voice sounded thoughtful, "The annual meeting... because of a position next to Solan, he lost his head."

O'Brien did not speak, sticking to the boundaries of his identity.

Dawn paused for a moment, then quickly changed the subject: "About Bruce, is there any news?"

Bruce was attentive for a moment.

He left this bug in order to figure out Dawn's attitude towards him. As for other news, it is enough to hear the general idea and know it in his heart.

"No," said O'Brien, "Mr. Warner has been with you and has done nothing special."

"Oh?"

Dawn made a questioning tone with great interest, "I heard you mentioned last time that he was leaving the manor to buy some things, did he really do nothing?"

"There is nothing unusual in the monitoring, sir. Do you need someone to check Mr. Warner's shopping list at that time?"

"Need not."

Bruce finally let go.

Ever since he was brought to Dawn by coincidence after shopping that day, he has been secretly wondering whether the other party has suspicions about him.Listening to Dawn's words now, it was indeed a coincidence that he ran into it at that time, and it was not the signal before the crisis that he suspected.

The man didn't care much about Dawn's surveillance behavior. First, he was really suspicious. Two, Dawn has always respected his privacy. He has never put cameras or bugs in his private space. Third... he himself Now that he is doing something that is no different from the other party, how can he have any position to blame Dawn?

……

Dawn was attracted by the way O'Brien hesitated to speak.

"Is there anything you want to say, Abu?" he asked.O'Brien has always been a very calm butler, and Dawn has always been very comfortable with it, but it is rare to see him showing such a tangled look at this time.

"The juniors in the family are still too ill-considered—" O'Brien said, "because of a catch-up rumor, they think they have found a way to fight for position..."

The man couldn't help laughing: "Isn't this normal? The Hero's Tomb in the Beauty Township, the beauty trick itself is a very useful strategy, not to mention that Bruce himself is a rare beauty, so it's not surprising that they think so."

"It's because they don't know Mr. O'Brien," said O'Brien firmly.

Dawn looked at O'Brien for a while, and found that Mr. Steward actually thought so, and a smile appeared in his eyes.

"You really think highly of me, Abu," he said. "I'm just an ordinary person. It's no surprise that I would be attracted by beauty. You think I'm a self-sufficient person, but it's because I haven't met someone who is attractive enough." people."

"What sir said is true." O'Brien responded, but his expression obviously did not agree with Dawn's words.

Naturally, Dawn couldn't hide this performance, but he just shook his head with a smile, and brought the cufflinks that he had been holding in his hands to his face.

"Have you heard enough, Blue?"

The author has something to say:

Hmm, I’ve been a little bit stuck recently, the main reason is that I’m going to introduce another character with an over-the-top IQ in a while, and I’m going to lay out a little more plot here, I’m not very smart enough, this chapter is the last draft, so if I No update, it’s definitely because I haven’t written the next chapter yet (it’s just a vaccination, I don’t believe I can’t write 24 words in front of the computer [-] hours a day!) At most... at most the day after tomorrow!I will definitely update!

Now it's time to guess who the new character is (I think it should be easy to guess).
