"In that case, please ask Mr. Shen to move inside and explain."
Evans turned slightly sideways and made a gesture of invitation. This was not the place to talk, and he had long wanted to meet the mysterious magician.
Shen Fu had no objection. His purpose of telling the world about his reappearance had been achieved. If Evans refused to contact him because of this high profile, it would only be the other party's own loss.
"Boom——!"
Just as Beatrice was walking behind Shen Fu into the banquet hall, her hand seemed to slip, and the magic wand she was holding lightly hit the ground, and then——
The whole building made a dull sound, shaking like an earthquake. The lights flickered, and the nobles screamed one after another. Huge cracks spread from the impact point to all directions, and the bottom of the magic wand was deeply sunk into the warm yellow floor tiles. Below, even the fine lines of cracks can be clearly seen in the reliefs on the walls.
"Everyone, calm down!"
Evans had to raise his voice to calm down the panicked nobles. His status as a duke still had a certain deterrent effect. The panic gradually subsided. Everyone looked at Shen Fu in horror, fearing that the magic user He suddenly planned to go on a killing spree.
Beatrice held the magic wand in her hand and faced everyone's gaze. She shyly lifted the magic wand from the ground, then swayed it twice with some difficulty, stuck out her tongue, and held it tightly in her arms. He looked like he would never miss again.
So the movement just now was just caused by the little girl not holding the magic wand firmly?
After realizing this, everyone's gaze changed. They finally realized what a terrifying group of people the magicians were. No matter how noble their identities were, they could be crushed to death if they made a "miss" , as easy as crushing an ant.
Shen Fu stretched out his hand helplessly and patted Beatrice on the head. The scene just now was not planned in advance. There was no doubt that this girl was playing tricks again.
However, it seems that the effect is pretty good. Even Evans's eyes have become more cautious. It can be said that the identity of the mysterious magician has been raised a step higher. In fact, with the technological force of this world, even when facing Parker, There is no need to be afraid of the great elves at the same level, but the current combination of Shen Fu and Beatrice is still a bit unsatisfactory.
After reaching out and taking the magic circle from Beatrice's hand, he ignored the mess on the ground and didn't even give any explanation. Instead, he and Evans walked directly into the mansion. After their figures disappeared, These frightened nobles fled away from the place where they had just been flocking, and there was a lot of discussion. It is believed that the news of Shen Fu's appearance again and his conversation with Evans will soon spread around the world with these people.
On the other side, Evans brought Shen Fu and Shen Fu to a reception room. The maid had already prepared tea. Shen Fu discovered that the design of many places here referenced some oriental aesthetics. It seemed that the Duke had a deep understanding of China. , at least I really like Chinese culture.
"I'm not very good at Chinese." After the two of them sat down, Evans looked at the micro-translator that the maid had given him. After thinking about it for a moment, he put it aside, "And there are more than a dozen of them." I haven’t said this in years, so if there’s anything I can’t express clearly, please speak up, Mr. Shen.”
Looking up close, this Evans is indeed a very charismatic person. Sitting like this, he is neither humble nor overbearing. He does not appear domineering, nor is he too humble and polite. Instead, he has the casualness of "a guest coming from afar". But I have to say that this attitude does apply to people like Shen Fu who are unsure of the status gap.
"You probably learned Chinese from Chinese people. Although your pronunciation is not authentic, your word choice is very accurate."
Shen Fu is somewhat interested in this. In fact, he is also considering whether to choose a partner in this world, because the heavy equipment world is different from other countries. It is currently difficult for China to have a visible force of its own here. Unless there is a war. In terms of technology, except for the two real core categories of energy and aviation, everything else has been almost developed. Partners don't mean much.
Evans narrowed his eyes slightly, seeming to be recalling, "When I was young, my first love was a Chinese, and I also learned Chinese from her at that time, but that's all in the past, and she has passed away. "For many years..." When he said this, Evans paused and his eyes became sharp, "But I always remember a sentence she once said to me: people always have children to take care of themselves. Everything will be passed on, otherwise a hundred years later, dust will return to dust, earth will return to earth, and everything will disappear. Now I only have a daughter, Sigrid. Mr. Shen, you are a Chinese, you should be able to understand my feelings."
"His emotions are real."
At this time, Beatrice's subtle voice reached Shen Fu's mind, indicating that the words and emotions revealed by the person in front of him were not the use of negotiation skills, but a true inner monologue. However, it was also true that any No smart person would lie in front of the mysterious magician.
"We Chinese people really value the concept of family very much." Shen Fu picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, "Duke Evans, aren't you surprised? Why did we have such strength in that war? But didn’t show up?”
In this short period of time, Shen Fu has made a decision. It is not easy to find a person in power who agrees with Chinese culture in this world. If he can withstand the test of time and interests, China will be happy to do so. I saw one more friend.
"I have indeed thought about it. Although I was not yet born during the war, I was in such a position and knew more than ordinary people. At that time, there were indeed no rumors about you." Evan Si raised his head and looked at Shen Fu with a very firm tone. He had spent a lot of time checking and verifying the magician when he first appeared.
"The reason is very simple." Shen Fu sat up straight and answered word by word, "We are not from China in this world."
Evans' pupils shrank suddenly. He couldn't hide the shock in his heart at such a close distance. Apparently he himself realized this and stopped straightening his cheeks to show his surprise directly, "Mr. Shen means Say, there are other worlds, and there is also a China there?"
"That's what I mean." Shen Fu nodded, stretched out his hand and touched it gently, and a light screen appeared above the tea table, still playing the old video, "There are still certain differences between us and China in this world... .But the similarities in culture and language are very high. In fact, I was a little surprised when I first came here.”
