It turns out that the duke is not human

Chapter 541 541 is even more curious
Killed by the Duke?
Shu Shu silently repeated the last sentence in her heart.
At this time, the door of the banquet hall was suddenly opened.
Except for the person who was dancing in the middle of the banquet hall accompanied by the music, the gazes of the others all turned to the newly opened door of the banquet hall intentionally or unintentionally.
There stood an indifferent woman in a maid outfit, leading a little girl in a white dress into the room.
The little girl looked to be only six years old, with flaxen hair falling behind her like a waterfall, and a small hairpin on her head.
"So your hair is dyed."
Chris glanced at the little girl with great interest, and then at Shu Shu's pink hair.
With a surprised expression.
Shu Shu didn't speak, she 'sat' on the chandelier just like Chris, staring down with a little emptiness in her eyes.
This is her memory.
A memory she never shared with anyone.
Hu Lan knew that the Duke had saved her, but she didn't know about the banquet.
An indifferent woman in a maid outfit led the little girl to a handsome man in a silver sequined suit.
He seemed to be the host of the banquet, standing in the most eye-catching position, surrounded by a group of handsome men and beautiful women.
The man was holding a goblet in his hand, and the red liquid inside was unusually bright red and a little viscous.
Under the gentle shaking of the man, wavy marks will be left on the cup.
He looked down at the little girl standing in front of him, and looked up and down with scrutiny.
The little girl lowered her head and stared at her toes.
It seems that she is afraid of strangers and dare not look at men.
The indifferent woman in a maid outfit bowed her head respectfully in front of the man, but the hand holding the little girl was already tightly clenched.
As if trying to crush his little hands, he used a lot of strength.
After a while, the man in the silver sequined suit nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that the quality of the goods this time is good."
As the man's voice fell, there was applause all around.
At this time, a woman wearing a long black dress came out from the crowd and came to the little girl.
She reached out her black silk-gloved hand and lifted the little girl's chin.
The little girl looked at the woman timidly with her big eyes, because she couldn't lower her head because her chin was hooked.
"This girl, I want it.
You make an offer. "
She smiled and looked at the man in the sequined suit, her eyes were full of certainty.
"Honey, you know the rules of the banquet." The man raised his goblet and smiled.
There was an elegant smile on the woman's face: "I will trade two boys and a baby for this girl."
As soon as this remark came out, there were voices of discussion all around.
Even Chris who was 'sitting' on the chandelier showed a surprised expression, and he subconsciously looked at Shu Shu.
"I can't tell, you're quite valuable."
Shu Shu rolled her eyes at him.
In fact, she doesn't remember this past.
The human brain 'stores' everything it sees, hears, smells, or touches.
But when people look back, they only 'read' the most impressive parts.
Even if other information is 'archived', it will be subconsciously ignored when recalling.
Shu Shu remembered what was happening in the banquet hall below, but her previous memory was only a hazy impression, not as clear as it is now.
Shu Shu couldn't help but marvel at the power of this memory playback room.
If the Security Agency has this kind of equipment, the memory of the crime scene can be directly retrieved when interrogating criminals.
The detection rate can definitely reach an astonishing amount.
Just as Shu Shu was thinking wildly, the 'plot' below changed again.
For some unknown reason, a man who looked older wanted to compete with the woman in black dress for the right to belong to the little girl.
Both of them had decent smiles on their faces, and they spoke out their bargaining chips without haste.
Chris listened in amazement: "Tsk tsk, why didn't I see that it was so precious?"
Having said that, he looked at Shu Shu curiously.
Baby face, not tall.
She looks quite cute, but she doesn't have the amazing looks of her second sister, Shu Yue, nor the fierce aura of her elder sister, Shu Yun.
It can be said that among the three sisters of the Shu family, Shu Shu is the most common one.
Chris recalled the information about the little girl.
Her academic performance was not very good, and she was recommended by Simon to take the entrance exam for Luna First Academy.
Because of an accident in that entrance exam, all the candidates who survived were admitted to Luna First Academy.
Like most of the candidates who took that exam, they got lucky.
Later, Xiao Tingyuan, the dean of the Art Academy, valued him and was accepted as a student.
This is not such an incredible thing.
There is a powerful singer as her elder sister. This little girl's musical ability should not be bad, but it has not been discovered before.
Besides, according to intelligence, Shu Shu lived with Shu Yue when she was a child.
It is not impossible to have been fascinated by music since childhood.
Generally speaking, this 25-year-old girl has nothing special about her except for being cute and lucky.
Even though her parents are indifferent to her, she has two older sisters who love her very much.
In the Shu family, Shu Yun and Shu Yue's status is much higher than their parents.
Normally, Chris would never pay attention to such a little human girl.
The kind you don't even look at.
But in this little girl's information, Chris saw two things that made him care.
The first was that the little girl had been working for several months at the travel agency that Simon owned.
Another thing is that Simon actually gave this little girl the recommendation of the Orsini family.
You must know that Simon has never used that quota for so many years.
Chris knew that there was a member of the Presbyterian Church who had gone to Luna to find Simon, hoping to give him the recommended spot, but Simon ruthlessly refused.
He really didn't understand how such a little human girl, who was not yet an adult, stayed by Simon's side for so long and got that recommended spot.
Out of curiosity, he dragged Shu Shu here.
He just wanted to see how the little girl knew Simon.
According to the information, the little girl disappeared for more than a year when she was six years old, and was later found by Shu Yun.
It's just that Chris didn't expect that this little girl was actually abducted to such a place.
Moreover, there were two blood clans with not low bloodlines paying a 'high price' for her.
The man who came out to rob the woman was the Marquis Carlo that Chris mentioned before.
Because this is Shu Shu's memory, all the pictures are 'played' according to her senses.
Chris couldn't know why the two vampires cared so much about the little girl.
Don't know what they found in that little girl.
This made him even more curious.
As a pure blood, he didn't find anything special about this little girl.
When entering this memory, Chris concluded that most of the people who attended the banquet were vampires, and the others were vampire slaves they brought.
He has seen too many such banquets.
Especially among blood nobles, it will be held once a month.
The organizer of the banquet will bring a group of human children.
Take a child into the banquet hall every once in a while, and then the people who attend the banquet bid to sell the child.
Bids can be made with euros or other children, as in an auction, the highest person gets the child.
These human children are usually trafficked, perhaps sold by their parents.
Today, in the Empire, blood clans can buy fresh blood from blood donation centers, or use blood capsules invented by Professor D. Este.
But there will still be vampires eager to drink blood, especially among nobles.
Many old guys who have lived for a long time think that piercing their teeth into the skin of their prey and sucking their blood is the way the vampires eat.
This leads to a banquet like the present one.
The Council of Elders knew the existence of this kind of banquet, but because the Blood Race had the most seats in the Council of Elders, they could only turn a blind eye.
As long as it is not discovered by the special guards, will the elders interfere.
Chris felt that the level of this banquet should not be high, because he only had a little impression of the Marquis Carlo and the woman who made the first bid.
The two of them should be the blood clan with the highest blood here.
Shu Shu didn't know what Chris was thinking, but seeing him sizing her up so brazenly, she rolled her eyes again.
She was still wearing the clothes that entered the memory playback room, covering her whole body tightly.
Look at this guy any way you want.
She lowered her head and stared at the scene where the two were arguing below.
The 'stakes' of the two are getting higher and higher, the smiles on their faces have disappeared, and they are staring at each other with distorted expressions.
The original elegance and calmness had long since disappeared from the two of them.
All that was left was the raging rage, and the certainty of winning over the little girl.
If she hadn't seen it again, Shu Shu would have almost forgotten that there was such a show back then.
She really couldn't understand why these two people were so attached to her.
Although she was cute when she was a child, she was not the type that everyone loved.
In the past, she thought that the people at this banquet were all rich and pedophile perverts.
The kind that is specially bought for children.
Now, she saw the scene clearly again, and felt that things were not what she thought.
The bidding of a man and a woman below shocked most people at the banquet, even the band stopped playing music, and the dancers all looked in the direction of the two.
Except for the two parties, who were still raising their 'chips', everyone else watched this 'big show' with relish.
The vampires who participated in this kind of banquet knew that there would be many children at the banquet.
Sometimes there will be some witches or elves with very low bloodlines, or even mixed blood.
It is rare to see two blood clans, but both are noble marquises, making such a reckless 'bid' for a child.
"It's so lively."
Ahem, for safety reasons, I cut out some dialogue parts.
Afraid of being blocked, please understand.
Eleven still has a great desire to survive...
