Xu Huo stepped forward and handed out the sticker flyers, but they waved them away unceremoniously.
After glancing at the three of them, Xu Huo silently retracted his hand and staggered away from them.
He went to the self-service store to buy some food and water. He found a paid single lounge and sat in. He looked at the flying aircraft outside and thought about what to do next.
Deng Xuan has little value here. Even if something does happen, the probability of his participation is not high.
The movement at the pier may not be true. If you still want to find out the news, you have to go to the station.
I took out my communicator and searched for the hot news in the base city in the past two days. Three out of ten articles mentioned the same name - Madam Butterfly.
Madam Butterfly... Xu Huo's sliding fingers paused for a moment beside the woman wearing the butterfly mask, and then the screen popped up information about Madam Butterfly. Except for a vague identity introduction, most of the rest were tidbits, mostly talking about Not long after she arrived in District 011, she had close contacts with high-level people, and she had many guests. And she became famous because of her romantic nature.
"...According to reliable information, Madam Butterfly will visit Rose Flower Castle with Duke Tarr this afternoon..."
Xu Huo closed his address book, ate the remaining food in several bites, went out, hailed a car and headed to Rose Flower Castle.
The castle is still the same as before, with roses blooming in front and back, the previously burned area has been completely restored, the front door has been renovated, and tables and chairs have been placed in the garden, making it look brand new.
In addition to Mr. Dong, new servants have been added here.
"You're back." When Xu Huo appeared at the front door of the castle, Mr. Dong was waiting at the gate for the first time. As if he was sure that he was coming back, he took his coat again and said, "Mr.'s bedroom has been redecorated. After a while, I will send my coat and umbrella to your room."
The strange feeling emerged again, and Xu Huo asked: "Will the castle receive guests this afternoon?"
"Duke Tarr and Madame Butterfly." Mr. Dong took the wet towel brought by the servant and handed it to him, "Duke Tarr and Mr. Hope are friends, and Mr. Hope was awarded the title of Baron with his help. , he called earlier and said he was coming to express his condolences to Mr. Hope."
"He Pu is good friends with him?" Xu Huo wiped his hands.
"Not a very good friend, but Duke Tarr is a good channel." Mr. Dong said: "Mr. Hope's baron title was bought with money, so it cannot be inherited. After his death, the title will be If you want to get the title of baron, sir, you'd better have a good relationship with Duke Tarr."
While talking, Xu Huo had already walked up to the second floor. A reserved frame space was added next to the place where He Pu's portrait originally hung. Apparently there was a new painting to be hung.
"I have a question. Do you think of me as the heir to Rose Flower Castle?" He turned around and asked.
"Sir, do you want to inherit the Rose Flower Castle?" Mr. Dong asked him, "If you inherit the castle, you can inherit everything from Mr. Hope."
"Including those props and potions?"
"Those things are from my private collection and were given by Mr. Hope." Mr. Dong said, "They are not within the scope of inherited items."
Xu Huo looked at him and smiled, "Are you a super prop?"
Mr. Dong remained silent and did not answer the question.
"It seems that trust between us has not been established yet." Xu Huo asked again: "Does He Pu have any requirements for the heir?"
"No." Mr. Dong replied: "You are free to dispose of this castle. You can buy, sell, give it away, or destroy it."
Xu Huo was a little surprised this time, but he continued, "But I will not allow you to destroy the castle."
In this old castle, Mr. Dong is the actual controller. His birth should be inseparable from the old castle, so even if it is no longer a copy, he can freely control these buildings.
"What procedures are required if I want to inherit the Rose Flower Castle?" Xu Huo didn't know Mr. Dong's intention of transferring the castle to him, but this was a good opportunity to establish himself in District 011.
"I'll have the relevant procedures delivered tomorrow." Mr. Dong's calm, mirror-like face finally showed a smile, "Then will Duke Tarr and Madam Butterfly personally entertain you this afternoon?"
Xu Huo nodded, "Put a bouquet of purple roses in Madam Butterfly's room."
"I will choose it myself." Mr. Dong responded.
At three o'clock in the afternoon in District 011, Duke Tarr's car arrived at Rose Flower Castle on time. The middle-aged man with a big belly carefully held Madam Butterfly's hand and guided people into the castle. At the same time, he said: "At this time, Rose Flower Castle is... The most beautiful place in the ancient city. It is only suitable for a flower-like beauty like Madam to live in a place with blooming flowers. Those stinky men's houses are not suitable for Madam to live in."
The face was filled with ecstasy and flattery, and it was obvious that he was not here to express his condolences.
Mr. Dong welcomed the people in and introduced Xu Huo's new identity as Mr. He Pu's distant nephew. Mr. He Pu made a will when he bought the castle and left it to this castle after his death. Distant nephew.
Duke Tarr expressed his regret for He Pu and his anger towards the fake He Pu. Then he patted Xu Huo on the shoulder and said, "Your uncle and I are good friends. If you have any difficulties, just ask."
Xu Huo thanked him sadly, "I heard from Mr. Dong that you were very helpful to my uncle in the past. You helped him when he first came to District 011 and was unfamiliar with the place. You are a gentleman with noble character. My uncle I have always regarded you as my only true friend.”
"I've always wanted to come to visit you, but I'm afraid of being presumptuous..."
Duke Tarr interrupted him with a loud laugh, "What presumptuousness? You are Hope's junior, my junior. I also have children about the same age as you. I think you young people like you very much. I can do it anytime." Come, come anytime!”
While the two were talking, Madam Butterfly's purple eyes kept falling on him. Xu Huo raised his head and greeted her, "This is..."
Madam Butterfly chuckled, "You don't recognize me?"
The tone of voice was full of ridicule. Xu Huo pretended not to understand. Duke Tarr's eyes flickered back and forth between the two of them, "Do you know each other?"
"Most handsome people look alike. There is no difference between them if there is nothing new." Madam Butterfly ran her fingers along the edge of the butterfly mask. "They all look similar. I seemed to have seen the same face yesterday and the day before."
"Madam, you have unique insights." Duke Tarr agreed loudly, supporting her waist, "There is also a maze garden behind, and new flowers have just been planted. Madam, go take a look?"
"Mr. Xu, are you coming with us?" Madam Butterfly invited.
Xu Huo glanced at the two bodyguards who followed him, and retreated under the look in their eyes, "I'm going to check the ingredients. To entertain you two, I'm going to cook some local dishes myself."
Of course Duke Tarr applauded, and when he was excited, he touched Madam Butterfly's shoulder, but it was clicked away before he touched it.
