Mystery: The Fool's Witch Angel

Chapter 13 Dinner
In Yorktown dotted with starlight, only a few places are still lit with faint color-changing lights. In a small two-and-a-half-story building near the Yorktown police station, Weir lives on the top half floor, and the outside half is a balcony. There are plants and flowers raised by myself, and the mother and younger siblings live on the second floor.

Will lay on the bed, looking at the stars above through the skylight, and occasionally a shooting star flashed by.

"Sure enough, I'm still worried, Legila, Horos, Raja..."

Chalfie Village is the area I patrol, and I usually have a good relationship with everyone, especially Legila. I go to the Church of the Night to see if I have time. How can I feel relieved? I will patrol as usual in the next few days. !Just be careful.

At this time, there is no daytime hustle and bustle in Chalfie Village at night. Under the starlight, there is only a little yellow candlelight in the church. In the house behind the steam church, Gilead is sitting at the desk, watching the front being overturned and not cleaned up. The ink bottle was waiting for something, and after a while, Gilead appeared from the shadows.

"Girard, how are you doing?"

"I have almost digested the potion, so I should be promoted. How are you preparing for the ceremony?"

"Stabilize your mind first, and you will be promoted in a few days. I am also ready. When the time comes, I will sacrifice some people in this village. After I am done, I will go back to the hiding place. If I stay here for too long, I always feel that it is not good. Has Lord Keefer sent a message?"

"Blood sacrifice, this is not good. I'm afraid it will anger the Church of the Night and the Storm. There is no news from Mr. Keefer yet."

"Do you think we haven't done enough in Pulitzer?" Gilliard said coldly while playing with a pen, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Hermione is dressing herself with the help of Mrs. Wopper. After all, she can't just go to the dinner party in a casual suit. This will be considered disrespectful and disrespectful to the host of the party, and the first impression is also very important.

Fortunately, there was a gown that Audrey helped her buy before. She chose a dark pink-based long dress with a wide collar and lace trimmed with egret-colored silk fabric.

Mrs. Vaupel helped Hermione tie up her dark black hair, braided a basic court braid, put on a muslin top hat and long white gloves for ladies, matched her charm as a witch, and Mrs. Vopper, who was also in front of the mirror, couldn't help but A little obsessed, the light blue pupils match the delicate facial features, with a little childishness of a girl.

Hermione turned around, there should be no problem, and she fell in love with herself a little bit looking at herself inside.I sighed again, I don't know how much of this face is my own!In addition, I am not used to wearing low-cut high-heeled shoes, and I am used to wearing lace-up boots.

Putting on glasses and covering up one's breath is much better than usual. The old ancestors were right, "Buddhas rely on gold clothes, and people rely on clothes."

After Hermione was almost ready, Voss also came outside. Unlike his usual image of being bohemian in a windbreaker, he was wearing a long gift and a tuxedo. He was indeed a rare nobleman.

Seeing Hermione come out, Voss opened the car door and saluted, "This beautiful lady, I think I must have seen you somewhere, can you tell me your name?"

"Okay, I'll talk to you when I get there."

Hermione returned the salute and got into the car with a smile, and waved to Vaupel and Eliza Yvonne who came out together.

Watching the carriage gradually leave on the street, Mrs. Vaupel took her sister back, "Don't worry too much, your sister will be found."

The carriage quickly arrived at the place of the dinner party, the home of local wealthy businessman Ferris Emil Drews.

After getting off the carriage, Voss and Hermione were led by the waiter to the banquet hall. Many people had already arrived, but Hermione didn't recognize them, but there were a few young women in gorgeous clothes who kept looking at Voss and wanted to come up. He looked a little hesitant again.

Hermione pulled Laworth, "Worth, aren't you looking for a partner? I think there are quite a few suitable for you on the other side."

"That lady is good, elegant and temperamental; and the youthful and beautiful one in front of her; the one leaning against the window is also good, beautiful and plump."

Voss went directly to the dining table and took a glass of fresh milk and drank it, "Hermione, I think there are a lot of rich people here, which suits you very well. Didn't you always say you were poor before? You can give it a try. I I am satisfied with my current life and don’t need it for now.”

Hermione also picked up a cup of black tea and drank it. Exquisite snacks and meals were placed on the white table, and the waiter next to her cooked steak and other food according to the needs of the guests.If it wasn't necessary, Hermione didn't need to eat or drink, so I didn't have much interest in these things, so I'd better find someone first.

"Worth, is your uncle here?"

"It's already here. I just asked Ferris's housekeeper what my uncle is talking to Stephenson and Ferris. Just wait a while."

At this time, a girl came out of the hall next to her. After seeing Voss, she walked over excitedly, and quickly put the snack in her hand on the table next to her. "Voss, you are finally here. Dad will come out later."

Then he looked at Hermione again.Voss took the girl's arm and introduced Hermione, "This is my friend Hermione. I have something to do with my uncle, so I brought it here."

The girl looked suspiciously, and Voss turned to introduce the girl to Hermione: "She is my uncle's daughter, my sister Mary Anne Brudner."

"Hello, Mary."

"Hello."

Hermione and Mary bowed to each other.Mary was wearing a light-colored baby blue dress, slightly curly dark golden hair, and a delicate bow tie on it, green pupils, soft facial features, with the childishness of a girl.

"It's a beautiful girl! Miss Rua." Hermione commented in her heart.

"Okay, it's time for you to go with your friends. I'll wait for your dad here. I'll talk to you later."

Mary looked at the two of them, and went to find her friend with some doubts.

After a while, 3 people walked out of the inner room, one of them had gray hair and bright eyes; the other was a bit similar to Voss, with a slightly older appearance, and three-dimensional facial features; Two keep up so well.After the white-haired old man said something, he walked to another hall. After seeing Voss, a man similar to Voss came over with a man with a big belly.

"Uncle, Uncle Ferris."

Earl Brudenell's hair was mixed with white hair, his face was slightly wrinkled, and he was about the same height as Voss; Ferris, who was traveling with him, had a receding hairline and a prominent belly.

Count Brudnell, who came to the front, had noticed Hermione next to him, frowned and responded to Voss, and then looked serious:
"You are old and you are still working in such a dangerous position. It's time to find a wife."

Looked at Hermione again:

"Haven't you introduced the lady to me yet?"

Hermione stepped forward to salute and replied, "Count Brudnell, Mr. Ferris, hello, my name is Hermione Evanna, just call me Hermione."

It's better to omit your own surname. Evanna inherited her mother's name, so it's not fake.

Brudner nodded, showing a troubled expression.Ferris said, "Miss Hermione looks pretty good to me, and she's very young. She should be able to get married in two years, but it's okay now. If you take care, the church won't react too much."

Ferris obviously misunderstood, Hermione looked only 16-18 years old.

James also said, "It doesn't matter if your status is ordinary, you can explain it yourself on Celia's side."

Just as the two were about to continue asking questions, Voss interrupted them a little embarrassedly, "Uncle, Uncle Ferris, Hermione is my colleague in the church, and I came here today to ask you some questions."

"The church?" Earl Brudenell pondered for a moment, as if he had thought of something.

"It seems that I misunderstood." Ferris smiled.

"Since that's the case, there's nothing wrong with it. I'll make my own choice. Celia is here too. You can talk about it yourself later."

For Earl Brudenell, this nephew was too much of a headache for him. He knew how dangerous the Extraordinary world was, so he planned to transfer Voss away from the Nighthawks after he got married and go to the headquarters of the Backlund Police Department. Well, it's not difficult to do this with the influence of the Brudner family. The difficulty lies in people. It seems that I have to be cruel, and my brother will keep such a child.

Voss was also a little surprised when he heard Celia,

"Is Celia back? In my memory, she is still a little follower. Let's not talk about this, uncle, I want to ask if you can tell me about that?"

"The other party was a guest from Lunburg, named Saleh Mackenzie. It was brought by our partner Lamont in Lunburg. It was also the first time I met him. When he visited some places, he saw I saw a girl who was studying there, and felt that she was very talented in learning, so I took it back. This is very good, instead of sinking into those places and dying of illness, this kind of ending is also very good." Count Brudner Said lightly.

"Uncle, can you contact this person?"

"The first time is just an inspection, let's talk about it later, I will pay attention to it. Now your business is the most important thing, and how do you care about it? This kind of business happens every day."

"Then when is the next time, Earl Brudner." Hermione also asked

"I don't know much about this. The other party didn't disclose too much information. The first cooperation was very cautious. And since you are a friend of Voss, please help me to supervise him. I rarely see him bring anyone Come see me." James Brudenel paused, "May I ask, who is that girl, you are very persistent."

"I was also entrusted by someone, and I promised others to find this girl. A man cannot break his promise."

"It's not true. Although it reads a bit strange, it makes sense." Ferris also said a few words at the right time.

"The other party is a bit mysterious, let me ask next time. You can also help me urge him to start a family and start a business. If there is anything to take care of, you young people go to communicate!"

James Brudnell nodded to Hermione, who smiled back.Afterwards, James Brudnell and Ferris left together and went to the area where they were supposed to go, and the bodyguards guarding them quickly followed.

Hermione watched the two leave and smiled at Voss, "Your uncle only has mood swings when he talks about you. It seems that he cares about you very much. You should be more mature."

Voss straightened his collar, "I have always been very mature. It seems that Inis is fine. I guess she brought her back as a secret lover. Don't worry too much. I will tell you when I have news next time. At least Better than staying at the Red Theater."

Hermione also knew, let's find out where the person is first, and there is not much I can do, so maybe this is a good home in this world!Hermione handled some cases and saw the hardships of many low-level people.

Earl Brudner walked into the aisle of the room and suddenly asked the bodyguard next to him:
"Can you see who she is?"

"I can confirm that she is a high-sequence Extraordinary. When I observed her, she also responded to me. The other party did not have any malicious intentions, and the glasses she wore were also a magical item. Your own face."

"It might be a strong person from the church. It's normal for us not to know." Ferris took out the pipe and said while filling it.

"Can you see her real face?" James Brudnell continued to ask

"No, when I want to go deeper, I have a creepy feeling, and my spiritual intuition tells me that's not what I should look at."

After hearing this, Brudnell continued to walk forward, and said softly to himself, "Is there a new strong man here? What is it going to do?"

　Tie sons!Please recommend, your recommendation is the driving force for me to update!
