Chapter 109 Classic Story (It’s weird to be called ugly~)
"Paper, why did you break up with me? Have you been seduced by another bitch again?"
A woman in a long pink chest-length dress was roaring without caring about her image.
Opposite her was a handsome man with a frown and an irritated expression.
"Camilla, stop being unreasonable here." The man named Paper said impatiently when questioned by the woman.
There were two young men standing next to Paiber. One of them, who was wearing glasses, advised, "Miss Lamica, this is the birthday party of Mr. Paiber's mother, Countess Monroe. Please don't make noise and disturb others."
"Ha, Jade, why are you pretending? Don't think I don't know about your embarrassing stories."
"Of course I won't disturb the Countess's party, but Piper must explain it to me clearly!"
Camilla spoke to the man with glasses for a while, but finally returned to the previous question.
"Camilla, if you want to know so much, just come out with me and let's talk in the backyard!" Pepper grabbed the woman's wrist and dragged her out.
The two quickly evacuated the banquet hall.
The only ones left were Jed, who was wearing glasses, and another man beside him.
The man taunted, "Jade you are such a good dog to Piper!"
"Lauren, why are you here again? Don't you care about your dear sister?" Jed, who was hurt, counterattacked the other party.
The two of them were at loggerheads and disliked each other.
But they all have people in their hearts who they hate and detest even more.
While Amuro Toru was exchanging information with Midorikawa Hikaru, Tsushima was also not idle. He looked around and then saw this drama.
If you taste it carefully, you might find some big melon to eat.
"Oris, how did you get here? I've been looking for you everywhere."
Toru Amuro walked up to Tsushima with a glass of white wine in his hand and said helplessly.
"Give it to you."
He used his wine glass to cover the small note he received from You Xunran and handed it to the other party.
"Thank you, dear Jack." Tsushima took it and thanked him.
After taking a sip, he held the wine glass, looked at the two men in front of him who were in a disagreement, and asked softly, "Jack, do you think this banquet will go smoothly?"
Because Tsushima's voice was so soft, Amuro Toru had to listen carefully to hear what he said. He unconsciously moved closer to the person and lowered his head slightly to hear clearly.
"Why do you think so?" he asked in confusion.
What I was thinking was, could it be that Changdao Iced Tea had other arrangements, or that the organization had a special mission that was temporarily joined.
Assassination?
Could it be targeting someone at the scene?
The goals of the organization.
Toru Amuro made a lot of guesses, but finally calmed down.
He looked around inconspicuously.
"Hmm~ I just found something very interesting. Things might get a little uneasy next time!"
Tsushima smiled meaningfully.
She reminded Amuro Toru tactfully, but even if she didn't remind him, he wouldn't panic because of his ability to adapt to circumstances.
"Really? Then we are in trouble."
Toru Amuro was thinking that if something unexpected happened in the banquet hall, their mission would also be affected and they would have to return in failure, and there would not be such a good opportunity next time.
"It's a bit of a hassle, but it might be helpful to us~"
Tsushima thought about it and felt that it was not a big problem. At most, a lot of police would come.
After all, he is the earl's son.
Toru Amuro looked puzzled, but when he saw that the other party didn't intend to continue talking, he gave up his question.
*
British people have a strong sense of time, and guests generally arrive earlier than the scheduled time.
Because of the Countess's health, this banquet was held at her residence. Usually, gatherings are held at private estates or hotels, so this also made it convenient for the organizers.
The banquet started on time and all the guests had arrived.
Earl Monroe and his wife walked to the central open space of the banquet, raised the champagne in his hand and congratulated, "It is an honor for you all to come to my wife, Olivia's birthday. I, Monroe Ruth, welcome everyone here!"
Everyone raised their glasses in response, and then everyone applauded spontaneously.
Earl Monroe made some meaningful speeches, and then announced, "The banquet has officially begun. Please enjoy your meal!"
Another round of applause.
Some people of different identities who wanted to curry favor with the Earl had been waiting for a long time. They picked up their wine glasses and walked to Monroe Ruth, and then talked about other things while congratulating the source of their congratulations.
This type of gathering is mostly commercial in nature, just a gathering for celebrities to exchange ideas.
Either to show off or to gain benefits, everyone has their own needs.
These are not the purposes of Tsushima and his friends, so they will not take the initiative to communicate with the guests. There are also some guests who want to get to know them and make friends with them because of their good dress and conversation, but they basically leave tactfully after exchanging business cards.
While going to the bathroom, Tsushima took the opportunity to look at the information on the note. It was a drawing drawn by Mitsuru Midorikawa who had first entered the Earl's Palace as a temporary worker.
A simple map of the Earl's Palace.
After determining the approximate locations of the things, she came out of the bathroom and happened to run into the woman named Camilla at the beginning.
At this moment, the other person's face was covered with tear marks and his eyes were red. It seemed that he had just cried a lot.
"What are you looking at! Ugly!"
Seeing that her miserable appearance was being stared at, Camilla felt even more unhappy, so she got angry and cursed, not caring who was right or wrong.
After cursing, he turned around and went into the bathroom.
Tsushima who was scolded innocently: ...
┐(─__─)┌
Didn't they say that you'd get into trouble if you left the bathroom?
Tsushima left the bathroom and ran into another male protagonist of the incident, Monroe Pepper, in the corridor.
"This stupid woman."
The collar of Pepper's dress was wrinkled, as if someone had torn it hard.
At this moment, he was tidying up his clothes and cursing in an ungentlemanly manner.
Then he inadvertently glanced at the person walking slowly across the aisle, and his expression changed immediately. He quickened his pace and only stopped when he was almost done, and stood up straight.
He straightened his chest and raised his head, looked at the person, and asked politely, "Who are you, ma'am?"
Tsushima who was called: "..."
——Or you can find someone else to talk to. I was just called ugly by someone!
How could she not see what the other party was thinking after a thorough investigation? Then she was not the Long Island Iced Tea of the organization.
Oris was suddenly stopped by a strange man. He looked at him with a puzzled and cautious expression, and then said, "I am Oris, and I am here to attend the Countess' birthday on behalf of my aunt. Sir, are you the son of the Countess, Mr. Monroe Pepper?"
"Yes, Miss Orris, I'm Monroe Piper, and I'm glad to meet you here."
Piper acted like a gentleman and was the first to extend his hand.
The two shook hands and said hello.
"Ms. Orris, your outfit today suits you very well. It's very beautiful." Pepper said bluntly, looking at her with admiration, finally stopping at her face.
"Is Miss Orris mixed-race or Oriental?" Pepper looked at her curiously, but he was actually just looking for a topic to continue the conversation.
Oris smiled, his face gentle, and answered, "It's the second one."
"Oris, so you're here, what took you so long to go to the bathroom?"
From a distance came the voice of Toru Amuro, aka Jack, Oris's male companion.
