However, Shen Fu was not in such a hurry to run over. He still needed to make some preparations and plan carefully.
Soon, night fell, and the lights on the streets of Paris turned on. Some richly dressed and dignified nobles appeared on the streets, riding in cars or driving carriages. Their only destination was the Evans family. Mansion.
As the rulers of the Orthodox Kingdom, these dukes have lived in the lunar villa for a long time. Over time, they have developed a superior attitude. Therefore, occasionally one or two dukes will come back, which is a major event that will cause a sensation in the country, not to mention as a Evans, the youngest among the dukes, has always been an idol revered by the nobles, and everyone wants to leave a good impression in front of him.
As usual, on the first night after the Duke returns, he will host a banquet for all the nobles above the count of Paris at his mansion. The same is true this time. Looking in from the door of the banquet hall, the lights are gorgeous. This is a standard Gothic circular building. The roof of the building, the entire wall is dark red, carved with exquisite patterns, all the male nobles are wearing black dresses, the dark gold lines on the chest mean their title, the ladies are much brighter, with various The variety of dresses is stunning.
"You always follow Miss Sigrid on weekdays. If the Duke asks you something, please bow first and then answer. Be more humble..." Here, there is a nobleman who is still at the door. My own children.
"Remember, this banquet is different from the past. You can't show happiness, but you definitely can't be depressed..." Someone was also imparting the experience of being a noble.
"The Duke was a legend in our time! You should feel lucky to have the privilege of witnessing his appearance!" This was an excited lady who couldn't contain her excitement even before she entered.
There are various aspects of life, especially in the field of fame and fortune. These nobles who maintain their own noble blood have probably never thought carefully about how they look in the eyes of outsiders.
But no matter what, all the nobles arrived one after another, leaving their drivers or servants outside in the night, then stood on tiptoes, holding their partners in their arms, walking on the bright red carpet into this venue that represented status, with faces on their faces. Shangdu wore a shallow "elegant" smile, communicating with each other, waiting for the owner to appear. Until the door closed on time, they listened to the increasingly powerful applause and joined in while turning their heads to look towards the center. Evans, dressed in white, was slowly walking down the central spiral escalator, his blond hair shining under the light. It shines brightly, and the lines on the chest are inlaid with rhinestones, representing the highest title. Its shining light even overshadows the handsome face with clear water chestnuts.
"Thank you all for coming." Evans stretched out his hand and leaned against the armrest at the end like a portrait. "My wife is too worried about the safety of her beloved daughter and cannot attend this dinner, but she is also here for you all. I prepared a gift to express my apology." Even when he bowed slightly, his every move was still clean and elegant, making people feel like spring breeze.
But there is no hint of anxiety about the disappearance of an only daughter.
Just when the guests responded to the host's humility with more rhythmic applause, the door that should have been closed suddenly opened. The night outside the door made these people under the bright lights a little uncomfortable, but their eyes were all He was attracted by the two figures hidden in the darkness who appeared at the door.
"Tap tap tap..."
The footsteps of the hard soles on the marble were particularly clear. Although there were two people, all the footsteps came from the taller one. The greeters on both sides who should have refused all late arrivals were standing straight at this time. Standing as if greeting their true master.
When the visitor stepped into the realm of lights, a series of suppressed exclamations came from the banquet. This was a dress that was completely inconsistent with the banquet occasion. The black robe was full of complex textures. The hands were naturally drooped and hidden in the wide cuffs. Under the hat is an ordinary man's face. If he were just such a person, he might not be able to recognize it for a while, but together with the man next to him wearing the same robe and holding a staff that is twice as tall as his body, Together with the cute little girl, the identity of the visitor has been revealed.
It was the mysterious magician who brazenly massacred an entire army of the Intelligence Alliance that day.
"Guard... Guard." A sudden voice broke the strange calm of the venue. It was a handsome young nobleman, but at this time his face was full of unconscious fear, and his facial features were twisted and wrinkled. Facing Shen Futou Looking past, he fell limply to the ground. The nobleman who seemed to be his father stood beside him and took a few steps away calmly, his eyes full of annoyance and panic.
For some people who are afraid of death, Shen Fu, a powerful magician with "blood" on his hands and "who regards human life as an ant", really scares them, and they don't even have the courage to face it directly.
However, such a person was not worthy of his attention. Shen Fu withdrew his gaze and looked at the middle-aged man in the center. Although he had never seen Evans, there was no doubt that this was Duke Evans.
The eyes of the two people met and they were both sizing up each other. The scene was silent again. No one dared to make a sound. The young nobleman had his father covering his mouth just now, for fear that he would say something again.
"You still don't know what to call your Excellency?"
Evans walked down the escalator and stood about ten meters in front of Shen Fu. After giving a slight salute, he looked over with level eyes.
"Shen Fu, my name." Shen Fu uttered these words in standard Chinese, stretched out his hand and put down the brim of his hat. Everyone saw the micro translator on his right ear. However, they nobles, including Ai Vince but not many people wear it on such occasions.
"Mr. Shen, on behalf of the Evans family, I welcome you."
To everyone's surprise, what Evans said was also in Chinese. Although it was not authentic enough by Chinese standards, it was still legible.
But in this world, Chinese has been reduced to a language similar to a minor language with the disappearance of China. With the existence of micro-translators, even many people with Chinese ancestry may not be able to speak much. Evans is in such a situation Although he is in a position of power, he has learned Chinese. Just look at the slightly open mouths of the nobles and you will know how incredible this is.
"I just heard rumors that Sigrid's disappearance is related to our magicians, so I came here to take a look." Shen Fu showed a faint smile for the first time since he came in, "Sigrid and I are also related. After a few encounters, whoever took her away must respond well to the courage to involve us."
