Chapter 48. Beauty and trouble

The night is shrouded in this charming and quiet city, but this city is extremely contradictory. It has the darkest and dirty slums and the most luxurious and exquisite mansions at the same time.The poor man dragging his mutilated body to beg back on the cold stone road was forcibly dragged away and disappeared, the screams were drowned in the darkness, only the dog had the courage to struggle hard to break away from the beautiful chain around his neck and bark crazily So, only dogs are willing to...

And in another part of the city, the mansion of the Pei family is staging an annual anonymous luxury feast.The guests in gorgeous clothes sat on the carved long table and watched the waiters deliver and cover the exquisite food. Indeed, the food was delicately arranged, as if it was made by the sculptor more like an invisible table. The perfect artwork in its original form, people can't help but want to taste this delicacy first.

"That's why I set aside some time every year to look forward to Pei's private party. This is simply the most tempting enjoyment, and it is impossible to refuse." A middle-aged man with a bit of affluence said with a smile. Of course, he asked in advance It takes a glass of potion to swallow this rare delicacy.

The hostess wearing a black veil watched him taking medicine with a usual smile. She was beautiful and people couldn't take their eyes off her. She was undoubtedly the dominant position at this table. "It's my honor that you like it, otherwise my father will think that I have not entertained you well, and it will be bad if I deduct my pocket money." After finishing speaking, the people sitting there laughed a lot.She stood up, dragged the silk black and white print dress to the floor, and poured wine for everyone. The red wine was poured into delicate goblets, forming a graceful arc.

"Honey, to be honest, what is this appetizer? How is it made?" The young woman sitting opposite Guan Zimo was full of praise for the delicate food on the plate, and couldn't help asking curiously.

"If I tell you, I'm afraid you won't even try, I promise, dear Lee." Pei Qianping smiled and explained softly to the woman, looking at Guan Zimo who was opposite.

"Okay, then don't tell me, keep me in the dark, haha." The woman giggled, while holding a table knife, she was skillfully cutting the sauce-covered meat on the plate and stuffing it into her mouth , bright red lips are trying to taste this delicacy.On the other hand, this strange face who has not spoken since he came here made many people here a little curious. After all, although the name of this annual gathering is not revealed, but they often get together, they know a thing or two. The invited people are all "" Predator".

"I heard that something big happened in the blind spot this time, and the impact is not small." The lady named Lee ate the appetizer gracefully and looked at everyone present, her eyes locked on the other person beside Guan Zimo who was burying her head in her meal. gentlemen.

"And it's the people below you who have a problem, Mr. Sun." Here, everyone except the hostess only uses one code name.After hearing this, the man named Sun looked up at Lee, smiled, and said, "I'm sorry, but that is no longer within the jurisdiction."

"Huh? How come?" Another lady stepped in and asked.

"If a domestic animal doesn't obey the owner's order, it doesn't feel bad to be slaughtered." The man wiped his mouth with a napkin, his handsome face made people think that he was a gentleman, but the words he said were a bit unreasonable .

"It's really your usual style, but it's a pity that such a big strip club was bloodbathed. I think I wanted to appreciate the elegance there." Another older man interrupted with a smile.

"If you were there at that time, maybe we would not be so honored to meet you today." Ms. Lee laughed like a fox, causing the man to drink a sip of red wine to relieve his boredom. Zhizhi said that he was always polite to ladies.

"However, in terms of losses, everyone here is more or less involved in some losses." Everyone looked at the hostess at the main table intentionally or unintentionally, because Sun happened here, and the next biggest loss was the Pei family. As for the reason Of course I can't say.

Pei Qianping drank red wine and listened to everyone's conversation, her gray eyes looked at the calm-looking person sitting beside her for a moment, as if the conversation of the people around her couldn't arouse her desire or desire. "The loss is negligible, but it's really puzzling that the reason has not been found out. After all, so many people have been turned into beautiful blood eagles, and the torturers are really high-grade."

"It's cruel, but we are all safe and sound, thanks to Mrs. Pei. Everyone knows that the bodyguards trained by your family are elite." Ms. Lee said, she enjoyed such comfort.

"It's all thanks to my father. The education system he cultivated can indeed cultivate a sound personality..." Apart from doing porcelain business, their family is more concerned with sending the people they need to wealthy businessmen. Personality is nothing more than the inability to produce the sadness that normal people should have.Pei Qianping showed a slightly sad smile for a moment.

"Of course, we know that you have nothing to do with blood and gore. You are always so charming, and you like extremely beautiful things. For example, I think this dish has been strictly requested by you." Another lady looked at the main table People, with a look of admiration in their eyes.Everything in the room is beautiful, with flowers on the window sills, dining tables, and chandeliers.

Pei Qianping fiddled with the delicately placed food, and sighed, "People can't always live in reality, and if they don't pursue the enjoyment of beauty, wouldn't their lives be wasted?"

Guan Zimo listened silently, put down the knife, and wiped his lips with a towel, "For us, the pursuit of beautiful things requires knowledge and wisdom. But sometimes, knowledge brings sorrow, and wisdom becomes It's just a burden." This sentence caught everyone's attention, they were a little surprised to see this woman who had been eating quietly all the time come up with such a deep meaning, and they didn't know how to refute it.

"If all of this is natural, how can I lament that mortals don't care for each other?" Pei Qianping raised her head, her gray eyes stared at the people around her, her voice was mild but aggressive.

There was no trace of ripple in the icy lake-colored pupils, but it seemed that everyone was waiting for the lady's next words, and people couldn't help but stop the action of eating in their hands.

"Nature combines human souls with her masterpieces, which makes my heart sadder and reminds me of how people treat people." The cold voice sounded low, but it could be heard clearly by everyone present clearly.

After hearing this, Pei Qianping raised the corners of her mouth slightly, her eyes showed a little appreciation, and she took two glasses of whiskey from the waiter's tray standing behind her and handed them to Guan Zimo, her slender fingertips touched the other's fingertips, "Never No one has a poem with me, you are the first."

Guan Zimo took the wine glass and shook it, "I just read it."

"Miss G is really knowledgeable. Once Qianping speaks like this, we have nothing to say, we just have to listen." Mr. Sun, who was seated next to him, said something, and everyone around him nodded in agreement.

"In this case, I would like to hear your thoughts on the blind area. After all, all the groups here are interested in acquiring the blind area." Pei Qianping smiled and looked at the other party's stern and sculpted face, with a sincere tone.

Guan Zimo looked at the delicacies on the plate, looked around at the faces of everyone wearing hypocrisy masks, and said with some sarcasm, "The blind spot is a bad social product, not accepted by the society, forming a society that can only produce heterogeneous The vicious circle is inevitable to be destroyed."

"I've heard a saying before that human beings are monsters tamed by society. We are beasts. Maybe people living in blind spots are just loyal to their own *. Thinking of this, I still envy them." Pei Qianping looked at Guan Zi Mo's gray eyes, which were as clear as glass beads, made her look more gloomy.

Listening to the conversation between the two of them with extremely destructive personalities, Sun interjected a rare sentence, "In this outside world where everyone is restrained, there is no place that makes everyone feel happy..." He actually just wanted to see Let's see how this Miss G, who is almost as unpredictable as Qianping, will answer.

"Of course." Pei Qianping said it first with a smile, but didn't say anything, and looked at Guan Zimo with smoky eyes.

"In that place, people who are different can find peace, ugliness can become beautiful, and aliens are not shunned, but appreciated." Guan Zimo did not disappoint everyone, and calmly took the words, Pei Qianping's eyes The smile is stronger.

"Really, what is that place?"

"I guess it's the casino."

……

Others discussed excitedly, using this topic to move on to other business issues, and of course they didn't seek answers.Because both of them seemed to know what the answer was, they just kept silent.

At the end of the dinner time, the waiter led several other guests to the lively dance floor in the front yard. Pei Qianping and Guan Zimo were the only ones in the big dark red room.Pei Qianping asked the waiter to finish clearing the table, and walked to Guan Zimo's side. She was level with her, smiling and inviting him to the private garden behind her.

"Actually, I have wanted to know you for a long time. Today is very pleasant, and I can have such a conversation with you."

They stood in the secluded manor, Guan Zimo was silent, looking at the purple land illuminated by the cold moonlight, dyeing this piece of pure land with a layer of melancholy light blue.It is strange and deserted, isolated from the world, and hides a sad secret.

"It's beautiful."

"Thank you, I want to grow better flower seeds, but I lost like this in the end compared with the past," squatted down, and picked up the withered pink hybrid belladonna, "It's like human beings are always creating The future, but always miss the past."

"There is a cycle of cause and effect, and in the end you will only be backlashed by yourself." Guan Zimo stood behind the other party, with blue eyes hiding all emotions, as if warning and explaining his attitude.

The other party laughed helplessly after hearing this, walked up to her, took off the petals falling from the other party's shoulders, looked into the other party's cold eyes, and asked with a smile, "The previous answer was the theater, right? "Looking at the other party, he nodded slightly, and continued speaking, with a more or less regretful tone, "If possible, maybe we can still be friends, what a pity." The voice paused, and the originally dull eyes became Much sharper, "I don't know how we will meet next time."

Her voice is frightening, but it can resonate with the other party. "Can I pluck one?"

"of course."

Guan Zimo put on a mask and selected a small purple flower that hadn't fully bloomed. The moment his fingers touched it, a very three-dimensional golden stream of consciousness immediately flashed in his mind——

cherchez-moiquejesuisici... (look for me, here I am)

As the purple flower was broken, the golden stream of consciousness also dissipated.Following the waiter and leaving the garden, a woman with an anxious expression passed by her in the quiet corridor and almost bumped into her. The face exactly like Ning Xier was hidden under the mask. For a moment, the tentacles on her back unconsciously pulled out of her body and were caught She forced it down.

"Sorry, I almost bumped into you."

Guan Zimo helped the other party up, looked at the eyes that easily confused her, she almost lost, "It's okay." I'll do it later.
