This is outrageous. You can still see that Chris is beautiful even when she is wearing a mask?
Although the girl's figure is beautiful even if she doesn't look at her face, in an environment surrounded by young girls, Chrissy is not particularly noticeable.
In addition, in order to conceal herself, Chris specially put on a dog-head hat, tied all her iconic blond hair, which she usually treasured, into small braids, and never stood with the familiar little sisters. together.
Not to mention the extravagant eating that really damages the image of the aristocracy.
Even if she was disguised, there was no other person in the entire dance who let herself go as freely as she did.
If he hadn't recognized her identity, Wayne would never have believed that someone could fall in love with her at first sight under such circumstances.
The question is, if you recognize Chris's true identity, how could you not know that you exist next to her?
——Isn’t this just jumping around in your own face?
Thinking of this, Wayne's eyes became sinister.
He held Chris's hand, put aside her half-eaten dessert, and pulled her away from the crowd without saying a word.
If he continues to be provoked here, it wouldn't be nice if he couldn't help but fight with him on the spot.
After all, it would not be too late to carry out retaliation after his identity is found out.
Watching the two people leave, the man slowly stood up and patted his trousers as if nothing had happened.
Seeing that there was no good show to watch, the people around couldn't help but booed lightly and scattered away as if they were disappointed.
…
He pulled Chris and left the banquet hall quickly. The only difference from before was that this time he left from the main entrance.
Chris was dragged along by him, but she didn't express any dissatisfaction.
But looking at her expression, she seemed a little unspeakable...regret?
Arriving at the large fountain at the bottom of the steps, Wayne suddenly stopped.
"I helped you fend off a suitor. You seem very disappointed?"
He turned around and looked at Chris wearing a Poppy mask in front of him.
The voice is as calm as water, and does not distinguish between joy and anger.
"Ah, no~ I was thinking that I haven't finished the dessert just now..."
As she spoke, she sighed quietly, stretched out her hand and touched her slightly swollen belly. "what a pity……"
"..."
Looks completely out of touch.
Speaking of which, if it weren't for her constant pressure, Chris would not seem to be interested in falling in love at all——
I don't know if I should feel relieved.
Feeling a little bit resentful about this, Wayne couldn't help but pat her perky little butt.
"You should be more careful."
To be honest, it feels pretty good.
"Wei! En!"
She reacted very quickly and covered her sensitive parts, giving him a look full of embarrassment.
"Ahem..."
Suddenly, two unnatural coughs came from the other direction of the fountain.
The two were startled and looked over there.
I saw a woman wearing a butterfly mask, sitting peacefully on the steps of the stone altar of the fountain. I don't know when she appeared.
"Who are you?" Chris asked slightly strangely.
The man didn't answer immediately, but walked over and took off his mask.
It was Vera from the city guard who had just followed him a few days ago.
Seeing her appear, Chrissy's face was even more surprised than Wayne's.
"Sister Vera, why are you here..."
She wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Vera gently raising her finger to her lips.
Vera glanced left and right and motioned to the two of them: "Please follow me."
Then, with a vigilant look, she took Chris and Wayne to a secluded place farther away.
Fortunately, for the sake of aesthetics, this villa has a lot of greenery around the building, which can effectively hide the figure.
"Tonight, I was ordered by Lord Bulwer to be responsible for the security around Prince Lawrence together with my teammates."
It wasn't until she was sure the environment was safe that she spoke candidly about her mission.
"By the way, where is the Lawrence man? It seems I haven't seen him tonight." Wayne couldn't help but ask.
He actually wanted to ask when Vera had been following him and Chris.
If she had paid attention to the whereabouts of the guests at the venue earlier, wouldn't it be easy to find clues between herself and Ge Li?
After hearing his question, Vera's expression remained normal, as if she didn't expect that he had any other meaning.
"Due to a minor breakdown in the carriage, Lawrence was a little late with Stuart's envoy," she explained. "Now that he has gone to the bathroom, and with a male commissioner in charge, my task becomes Perimeter alert.”
"Stuart's envoy?"
Wayne was startled.
"Yes, it's the one who invited Miss Chris to dance just now." She said.
"Is it possible that he knows Chris's true identity?"
I always felt that that person seemed to be coming for my home.
"According to the information I have, it's at least 80% possible." Vera also generally agreed with his idea.
After receiving this answer, Wayne turned back and glanced at Chris.
Sure enough, if you are too weak in magic power, you will easily be targeted by others.
"——Please be careful." She warned sincerely.
"I have a mission, so I can't disappear for too long. If you two need any help, you can let me know through the channels of the Wenche family."
It seemed that Vera's purpose of coming was just that, and as soon as she finished speaking, she returned to the banquet hall with great knowledge.
Wayne watched her disappear behind the bushes.
"Wayne——"
Chris's deliberately prolonged voice came to her ears.
"Um?"
"Why, you don't seem to be surprised at all by Sister Vera's appearance?" She stared at him with some suspicion.
...Because the accident has already happened.
However, the truth cannot be told like this.
He looked confused and asked: "Although it's a bit surprising, Chris, didn't you recognize her? You even called her Sister Vera..."
"I think she should be someone who is relatively close to our family."
"Really."
As if she thought what he said made sense, Chris thought about it carefully and couldn't find any flaws, so she had no choice but to let him go.
She sighed softly, "We used to have a close relationship, but now we can't say how close we are."
Taking this opportunity, Chris explained to Wayne the relationship between Vera and the Winche family.
It turns out that Vera, who was only a low-level military aristocrat, was able to enter Qingxi Academy through the introduction of the Wenche family.
In addition, her family's original faction can be regarded as belonging to the Wenche family. Most of this group of nobles became famous because of the Battle of Fog and Moon, so they also called themselves the Fog and Moon Party.
