Chapter 654 Time of Dancing
"It seems that there will be no action tonight."
The round-faced girl turned around and pushed open a movable side door. The cheers from inside almost overwhelmed her voice:
"Of course, the premise is that you don"t poke anything."
There will be no action...
Thyls tried to conceal his shock.
The prince followed her into the banquet hall, into the crowded banquet hall.
"Do you have any other evidence? Me, I can"t just believe it casually..."
"Evidence? Really interesting," the girl snorted coldly, "Do you think that in this city, no, it should be in the entire kingdom, how many people know what we know? How many people know the task given to us by your Majesty? He sent a believer-no, it"s too dangerous-do you need him to send a royal minister to sneak in your ear to tell you?"
Your Majesty’s mission.
Tyles trembled in his heart.
d.a.m.n it.
"But this, this is too..." Thales stared at this indifferent round-faced girl: "In other words, you are actually buried in the Emerald City—"
But the girl did not answer, but kept walking into the crowd. Thales had no choice but to try to keep up.
"Welcome! I have come from afar and have been looking forward to friends for a long time!"
Jean Kevin Deere’s voice came from the center of the banquet hall, because he was standing on the second floor, his voice was louder than ever, not only interrupted Thales’ words, but also attracted the attention of all the guests.
Almost all guests.
Tyles gritted his teeth, followed the girl in front of him through the crowd, all the way to a corner against the wall, and squeezed into a precious vase.
No, he has to ask clearly.
Ask her ident.i.ty, her origin, and her purpose.
If it is really what he thinks, then his previous dialogue with Jen, the so-called "Indestructible Emerald City" dialogue...
has become a joke.
"Kevin Deere’s tradition...the glory of the queen’s city...the southern pearl of the kingdom...the Emerald City opens its arms, and the Kongming Palace is waiting..."
Jane’s speech, the rhythm and the accent are just right, and maybe the content is also good, and it wins a round of applause from time to time, but Thales doesn’t care at all.
He ignored the protests of several guests, panting and squeezing behind the vase, following the round-faced girl in front of him wholeheartedly.
"Wait, we"re not done yet!"
Thyls watched as the round-faced girl kicked off the dusty boots, took off her bag, and took out something that looked at least a simple dress.
This skirt was obviously modified, I saw that she shook it. It didn’t take much effort to put it on top of her head quickly and easily.
Thyls was a little surprised, but returned to the subject to ask questions:
"What you hinted at is incredible, so I need more explanation: your mission, your purpose, your position, your role, and whether you are—"
"Okay, okay, okay, I"ll say it later," the girl casually said, she scooped some water from the vase, wiped her hair casually, wiped the bird"s nest into a haystack, and turned her back, "Don"t mind helping. ?"
Tails stuck, but had to obediently fasten her back buckle.
"Okay, now you can always..."
"No, sorry, not now," the round-faced girl with a big change turned her head, yawned, and pointed her head, "Now, it"s time for me to appear."
debut?
Tales was startled, and was about to speak, but saw the girl stretch out her hand and pulled something.
One second later, she soared into the air, went straight to the ceiling, and disappeared behind the pillars!
no…
Tales stared at the top of his head blankly.
How did she go up here?
On the other side, Duke Jen, who was standing on the second floor giving a speech, opened his arms and smiled to the guests in the entire banquet hall:
"...And the iris flower is consistent, faithfully fulfilling our promise—"
At this moment, the surrounding lights flashed, and a figure suddenly fell beside Jane, shocking the Duke and all the guests!
Even the Seych.e.l.les knight behind him has his sword out of its sheath!
"Ning because of friends!"
The new figure opened her arms gracefully. Although her voice was small, everyone could hear clearly: "Don’t die by the enemy!"
At that moment, everyone was stunned.
Including Jaen—the Duke himself stared at the round-faced girl who landed on his side, a moment of horror flashed on his face, and he was accurately caught by Thales who had been with him for several days.
But after everyone saw the sudden appearance, there was a round of applause, two rounds of applause... Soon, the entire battle banquet broke out with extremely warm colors!
"Look! That"s—"
"Let me introduce, wise Lord G.o.dalan, that is Miss Hille!"
"Ah great!"
"Sure enough, the stars have a set, the way of playing is so special..."
"She is beautiful again!"
"What, living in the legend of the ladies circle, but the limelight stabilizes Karabyan"s singing and dancing jade pearl?"
"Ah, her dress, have you seen it, have you seen it!"
"Yes, simple but not simple, it must be specially made!"
"There is also a hairstyle! It takes a lot of time and manpower to comb out that look!"
"Wow, that"s probably natural makeup! It seems like nothing, it makes people feel fresh and natural. The Emerald City is really the forefront of fas.h.i.+on!"
"It is not the Emerald City, but Kevin Deere! It is indeed the Duke’s House!"
"Ahem, Dad also has a lot of money in our family, right? Look, do I still have a chance?"
"Mr. Suns.h.i.+ne is here, this is too unpretentious!"
"Yes, we have always suggested that the Duke should discipline his sister. After all, it is Kevin Deere, but she can’t do whatever he wants. The Sunset Temple is also willing to contribute to this, but it’s a pity..."
"Grandma is a bear. I haven"t seen his sister several times in the Emerald City every year. The broken duke hid her tighter than JR in his crotch. I dare to show off at the celebration?"
"So she has been in the Kongming Palace these days, not going out?"
"That is to say that the rumors are all false. There is no contradiction between her and His Royal Highness Thales?"
"Duke Jane didn"t cruelly dismantle him and beat the mandarin ducks? Isn"t he a bad relations.h.i.+p with the prince?"
"Look, heroes cherish heroes. This is the vision of big people! Can you sit in that position and manage major affairs of the country, how can you allow private complaints?"
"Guess, if the Duke"s sister gets married, how much dowry is there?"
"Huh? Is this marriage going to be completed?"
"Oh my G.o.d, it"s so romantic!"
"Romantic ghost! You have little experience, and those of us who often run into the capital know that from officials to businessmen, d.a.m.n, then Quan Te is a vampire!"
"Hus.h.!.+ Be careful! I heard that there are vampire guests at the Emerald Festival! The real one!"
"Eh, you are still too young to do business in Exeter? I have a friend from Kang Mars. The bitumen mine contract signed there has been broken countless times... The reason for one time is the most nonsense: The king is dead!"
Amidst the thunderous cheers, Thales narrowed his eyes and thoughts abound.
The situation in Emerald City has changed.
and it became sudden, which caught him off guard.
The round-faced girl flirted with her hands and greeted the guests with a smile.
But Thales, who fastened her back buckle, knew that she had hidden the dust and dirt on the road just now, behind everyone invisible. The girl was even barefoot, but she couldn"t see it from below.
While Jen was standing behind the girl, the Duke of South Bank did not say much, only his brows tightened.
In the crowd, the two sisters of Karabyan were still slightly embarra.s.sed after freshening up. They saw the round-faced girl s.n.a.t.c.hing the limelight from the entire battle feast. They couldn"t help but snorted, raised their hand fans, and hid their grieved expressions in " Brother is a fool" afterwards.
"Your Highness!"
Thales turned his head and found that Mallos was standing beside him with a serious expression.
"Where have you been? How did you make yourself dusty and not sleek—"
Thyls was very upset and confused, how could he still have the mind to deal with parents" nagging:
"Tor, please!"
Seeing the prince’s expression, Mallos understood something and stopped immediately.
"Okay," the watchman looked at the girl who appeared abruptly on the second floor, and asked, "What"s going on? That lady hasn"t been..."
"right."
"Duke Jen has always disliked you and—"
"right!"
"But she appeared—"
"right!"
"Your Highness, we need—"
"right!"
"but…"
Thales sighed:
"Please! It"s really not now! Thor!"
Malios looked at him, nodded, and said nothing.
At the center of everyone"s cheers, Jane stood behind the round-faced girl, his face calm.
"Sile, you! Anyway, you can"t just show up here like this!"
The girl shrugged nonchalantly:
"Well, if you need to remind-this is also my home."
Jen suppressed the anger in his tone:
"When did you come back, why didn"t you inform in advance..."
"Don"t talk nonsense, the whole city is waiting, just announce it," the round-faced girl smiled and waved, biting out a sentence from her teeth, "This is an emerald celebration, unless you want to smash the family sign."
Jen took a deep breath.
The self-cultivation is as good as him, and it took several seconds to restore the smile.
The reason of the Duke of South Bank finally prevailed. He pa.s.sed the girl and opened his arms to the guests.
"I declare that zero hour has pa.s.sed!"
The atmosphere is warm, cheers surging up like a tide, responding to his words.
"The battle feast is over!"
Jane glanced at the round-faced girl, who tilted her head:
"And Queen"s Day is here!"
A burst of anger came, and with an emotion that was not true or false, the host of Kevin Deere looked at the guests and announced loudly:
"The Emerald City, in the name of the sunset and the kingdom, from now on-let"s revel!"
The Duke’s voice fell, and on all the observation decks outside the Kongming Palace, the fireworks that had been prepared for a long time were launched at the same time, ascended to the sky, and exploded in the night, flas.h.i.+ng a thousand brilliance!
"boom!"
For an instant, the cheers of the guests were deafening!
"Long live!"
"Long live the Duke!"
"Long live Miss!"
"Bless the sunset!"
"The sun is supreme!"
"Muhai is endless, the girl is singing! The scimitar sees red, the cargo compartment is full!"
"The people of the Nima North Island clan are literary-f.u.c.king, robbing his father, killing people!"
"May the route go smoothly and no pirates..."
"Jade Warriors!"
"Prince get out!"
"It"s time for a refres.h.i.+ng!"
"I am going to be admitted to the police officer this year!"
"Kissery! Lord, the honor of the gra.s.sland goes to you!"
"d.u.c.h.ery! Hongda Dalaga!"
"Ka"Sa will not lose!"
"Neither can Kina!"
"Ka"Sa is going to rise!"
"Kina too!"
"Ka"Sa is the best!"
"Kina too!"
"Kasha is unparalleled in the world!"
"Kina is also unparalleled!"
"Kasha..."s silly brother, don"t die so early!"
"Kina..."s too!"
"Let me grab the preferential parking s.p.a.ce in Gonghai City next quarter!"
"The harvest lady is here, and you have no worries about food and clothing, there must be Ruyou, and a rich life, thanks to Rufu!"
"Kangmas people? d.a.m.n, the liar who swallows Laozi"s money is **** out of Nyima!"
"Everyone! Listen to me! Disaster is bound to come, and the night is true-oh who stepped on me!"
Amidst the chaotic sounds and slogans, almost the entire Kongming Palace rushed out of the hall and flocked to the observation deck to find the best location to watch this year’s celebration fireworks.
Soon, cheers and screams were heard in the entire Emerald City, and different areas released their own celebration fireworks in response to the signal from Kongming Palace.
"Boom! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The sky full of fireworks soared into the sky one after another, colorful, dispelling the night, reflecting the entire Emerald City like daylight, marking the beginning of the Emerald celebration.
Cheers, roars, drums, singing, dancing... The emerald celebration arrived, and every corner of the city was agitated.
But not everyone is immersed in it.
"Hi, Ashford."
When most of the guests rushed to the observatory, the round-faced girl disappeared from her smile. She looked at the smiling butler:
"The lifting mechanism of the banquet hall is not smooth, it"s time to fix it."
"Go now, miss."
Jen glared at Ashford, but the butler just smiled.
The round-faced girl shrugged indifferently and turned to take a step.
"Where are you going?" Jane came to her and said coldly.
The girl never looked back:
"Dating."
The Duke"s eyebrows trembled.
"No, you are not allowed to go anywhere tonight!"
Jean clasped her arm, his expression stiff:
"You don’t know what the situation is now! Seych.e.l.les, you **** her to—"
But the next second, the girl suddenly turned around and grabbed the Duke’s collar!
"Jean Kevin Deere, my dear brother."
"The same sentence: Leave my business alone," the round-faced girl had sharp eyes and an indifferent expression, "Now, step back-you don"t want to roll around with your **** in public on this occasion, right?"
Jane"s eyes grew sharper, and his anger increased.
"You know I won"t step back, dear sister."
The girl"s face turned cold.
Seych.e.l.les came to their side in good time and interrupted the confrontation between the duke and the girl:
"Miss."
A few seconds later, the round-faced girl hummed.
"That"s a joke," she let go of Jane and looked at Seych.e.l.les. "You"re still so boring, Seych.e.l.les."
The Seych.e.l.les knight bowed his head respectfully and released the hilt of the sword at his waist.
"And you, shouldn"t you go out to the lookout and let everyone see you leading the Emerald City and having fun with the people," the girl looked at Jaen and said sarcastically, "The Grand Duke of the South Bank?"
Jane straightened his collar, his eyes were infinitely chilly:
"We must talk."
The girl shrugged, lacking interest:
"Oh, can"t wait."
The Duke of South Bank glared at her, nodded to Ashford, and turned to the observation deck.
The girl snorted contemptuously, took a gla.s.s of Serra wine from Ashford’s plate, drank it, put down the gla.s.s in the latter’s smile, turned and walked down the stairs.
But she didn"t take a few steps before she was grabbed by the person who suddenly appeared and pulled into the corner.
"Oh, are you afraid of me?"
The girl stroked her hair, scratched them into a nest again, and put on her dirty boots.
"I-"
Amid the rumbling and infinite brilliance of the fireworks, Thales took a deep breath, and finally spoke politely and introduced himself:
"Forgive me for trespa.s.sing, I am Thales Chan—"
"I know." The girl was indifferent.
The interrupted Thales lowered his voice and asked cautiously:
"So, so you really are—"
"Yes, Cecilia Kevin Deere," this time, the girl replied simply and neatly, "abbreviation: Hille."
The voice fell, and Cecilia-Hille extended her hand generously.
The doubt was recognized, Thales was still stunned for a second, he subconsciously wanted to stretch out his hand, but he stopped immediately.
Thyls looked at Sile’s hand in the grey glove that didn’t know what was hiding, with hesitation on his face.
Xilai hummed, and withdrew her hand.
"Just forget it if you don"t hold it."
Tyles was silent for a while, and when she stuffed the simple dress back into her bag, she couldn’t help saying:
"But what you just said, ‘discretion’, ‘you have others do it for you’, if that is a code, a code that only a few people know, then what are you..."
"no."
Hile interrupted him.
no?
What is not ???
Tels stared at her in a daze, hoping that the other party could say more.
"Everyone does what they do. If you don"t have to be a last resort, I shouldn"t have come to you."
Hile spoke again, still listless, not wanting to say a word.
"But after seeing the stupid things you have done recently and revealing so much information to my brother one after another, and even the risk of bad things, I think I need to warn you."
Thyls"s thoughts froze.
Recent stupid things...
shouldn’t have come to you...
It is necessary to warn you...
So, she is indeed a member of "our side".
Moreover, the level is higher than mine.
Because she hides deeper?
"But, but you are Jayne"s sister," Thales frowned, wanting an explanation, "You have no reason to be against him... how is this possible?"
"The world is full of wonders," Sile stretched out his right hand, and then covered the light with the grimace of "Soulbone Jacques" on her palm and smiled strangely at him, "Anything is possible."
"But you are Kevin Deere, a descendant of Iris..."
"And you are still a star," Hillay carried her bag, disapproving, "It won"t affect you against your father, father and son will become enemies?"
Talston"s time is suffocating.
"Then, what are your plans? Who do you report to? How do we—"
But the next second, Hille raised her index finger and stopped in front of Thales’ lips.
"Remember, single-line contact, this is not something you should ask, nor is it something I should say."
"If you don"t want to regret it, just close your mouth."
Hile patted Thales on the shoulder casually, her tone tightened:
"Especially to my brother."
Hile looked at Mallos, who was standing in the distance, paying attention to their every move, with a vigilant expression on his face:
"Or someone else."
Thyls was in a tight mood.
He stared at the carpet, thinking about the meaning of this message.
The freckled girl looked at him and smiled for the first time.
"Then, see you tomorrow, Your Highness."
After the words were over, Hille Kevin Deere returned to her original appearance and stepped out casually.
Thales stood alone, his eyebrows furrowed.
But just a few seconds later...
"Oh, I almost forgot to say it."
Xilai suddenly turned back, she hooked Thales’ shoulders, and leaned to his ear: "Kingdom Secret Section..."
"Say h.e.l.lo to you."
Xilai stretched out her hand in front of him and folded her palm: The "spirit bone Jacques" grimace in the palm of her hand, smiled at him again.
Thales s.h.i.+vered subconsciously and turned his head.
But Hille has disappeared outside the movable gate and is nowhere to be seen.
The secret branch of the kingdom.
Say h.e.l.lo to you.
Cecilia Kevin Deere...
Tels stared blankly at the place where Sile disappeared, and recalled everything he met with this girl today.
But…
At this moment, Thales suddenly felt something different.
He turned his head, and just under the flash of a firework, he saw Jayne.
The owner of Kevin Deere’s house, the Duke of Iris, stood on the opposite staircase, illuminated by the flash of fireworks.
He stared at Thales, and also at the place where his sister had left.
【He will give you the most unpredictable and unexpected blow. 】
At that moment, Jen"s eyes were complicated and obscure.
Tyles could only shook his head, spread his hands, and gave him an equally surprised and inexplicable look.
【And you have to prepare for the worst and the worst. 】
The light of the fireworks dimmed.
"boom!"
Another bunch of fireworks exploded.
But Jayne’s figure has disappeared.
Leave Thales alone, breathing in a trance.
He didn"t return to reality until he was patted on the shoulder.
"Your Highness," Mallos appeared in front of him with a solemn face, "You must know..."
"Not now, Thor," Thales let out a long sigh, "I am a little tired tonight and need to rest—"
"Dagory is dead."
Tels was stunned for a second before he could react.
"What, what? Who?"
"Commuto just got the news from an acquaintance," Mallos looked gloomy, no longer calm, "just today—it"s past midnight, to be precise, yesterday—night."
"The wine merchant, Dagori Moss, died in the Emerald City Prison."
Brewer...Dagori.
died?
Thales gasped.
He turned his head subconsciously and looked behind him.
Look at Hille, where Cecilia Kevin Deere disappeared.
But there is nothing there.
Only in his pocket, the seal belonging to "Soul Bone Jacques" reminded him that what had happened just now.
"Boom! Bang! Bang!"
Fireworks burst out in succession, exploding in the darkness one after another with colorful brilliance.
Under their s.h.i.+ning, Kongming Palace is like a towering giant standing in the center of the city, revealing its true body among the flickering fireworks: magnificent, weird, eerie, terrible.
As for the four-sided observatory full of guests, if the giant"s outstretched arm, with the explosions and flashes, draws shadows of different lengths, repeatedly back and forth in the endless dance, deeply enveloping the entire queen. City.
The hand speed is not developed, you need gold, no sword, 18 thousand a day!
Hades wants you three s.h.i.+fts, who dares to keep it until five s.h.i.+fts?
