Chapter 150: Wrath (Part 2)
Chapter 150: Wrath
After dinner, Alcatio wiped his mouth with a napkin.
His only son, who sat across the table, Aureliano saw this, and hurriedly trotted to the wine cabinet in the house, and took out a bottle of mead with golden liquor.
Some time ago, I don't know where a saying began to circulate, saying that mead has a very high nutritional value, can help the human body resist diseases, improve immunity, maintain cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and has the effects of good sleep and longevity.
Later, this rumor seems to have become more influential, and even many newspapers in the East China Sea have talked about it, and the experts in the newspaper have also popularized knowledge for readers, saying that it is not the magic of wine, but the role of honey itself, according to research, honey as raw material mead does contain essential physiological active substances for the human body, which can promote metabolism and resist aging .......
Alcatio, an old man with a high position and who has gone through most of his life, naturally does not care about the high price of mead, a bunch of inexplicable words in the newspaper, what fructose, what minerals, he doesn't know anything, he only cares about the things mentioned above that are good for the body and prolong life.
Moreover, the expensive and high-end mead itself is also in line with Arcatio's status, so since he saw the news, he has been drinking a small glass of mead every day after dinner, according to the news in the newspaper, and this habit he has maintained for several months.
As an only son who also lives under the same roof, Aureliano naturally knows Alcatio's habit, but Aureliano is not usually so attentive.
Alcatio stared at it, and after watching Aureli Yanno pour mead for the two of them, he said lightly: "Why are you so attentive, is there something wrong with you?"
"No, absolutely not!" Aureliano assured.
"Isn't you so kind?" Alcatio didn't touch his glass, and asked, "Say, what's the trouble?"
"It's really not a trouble," Aureliano took an embarrassed sip of mead, "It's just that I have some conflicts with people, and I want to ask your father to make decisions for me, and let Chloe come forward and help me breathe." ”
"Who can you have a conflict with?" Alcatio was a little amused: "You guys are all petty and want to get Chloe's Bureau of Investigation to come forward?"
"If my words work, why don't I need to come to you. Aureliano muttered.
"Have you looked for Chloe?" Alcatio frowned when he heard this, "Chloe didn't pay attention?"
Seeing Aureliano nodded, Arcatio was a little dissatisfied, he was not dissatisfied with Chloe for not making his own decisions to help Aureliano, but because Chloe was dissatisfied that Chloe did not report to him afterwards or during the process.
Aureliano is no longer a learner, and he is also the only son of Arcatio, Chloe does not take Aureliano's affairs to heart, and another person, such as William, may praise Clo's cautious performance, but it is a little uncomfortable to change to someone like Arcatio.
In his opinion, everything about Chloe was given by him, even if Aureliano's matter was not worth Crow's investigation bureau at all, Chloe should show enough attention to Aureliano's identity.
"If a dog doesn't take everything to heart about his master's house, it's time to give it a beating. Arcatio snorted, picked up his glass, and paused as he looked at Aureliano.
Aureliano's face was pale, his eyes were protruding, his forehead was bruised, and his hands were clutching his throat.
Boom!
The glass in Alcatio's hand fell to the ground and shattered.
……
The atmosphere in the aristocratic district has been a little strange for the past two days.
Alcatio's only son, Aureliano's poisoning, is not a secret, although Aureliano was eventually rescued from the brink of death by doctors, but the reaction caused by this incident is not something that can be easily pulled back.
After much inquiry, many people already know that Aureliano drank the poison in the mead that Alcatio usually drinks.
And some people also found that William also seemed to have disappeared for the past two days, and he never showed up, and he was connected to the fact that Aureliano was poisoned by drinking Alcatio's wine, which couldn't help but make many people think.
At the Chancellor's Office, Alcatio sat on the sofa in the reception room, leaning on a cane, and listened to Chloe's report with a blank face.
"Actually, I also met someone who was poisoned the day before yesterday," Chloe wiped his cold sweat and pretended to be nervous, "But you also know that my lord has offended many people since I became the director of this investigation bureau, and I don't have the title of nobleman, so it's easy to handle, similar things, in fact, I've encountered them before, so I didn't get killed this time, and I didn't specifically report to you." ”
"I just didn't expect that someone would poison you, adult, this is really, really...... Chloe looked confused and nervous, which fits well with the image of a person who is worried that his backer will be brought down, "Crazy!"
Alcatio's face turned gloomy when the door suddenly opened, and Eaton, the butler, approached and shook his head at Alcatio, who was looking at him.
"Sir, the people of Stolt say he is not in Kalmar City. Eaton stood with his hands tied, and said cautiously.
"Even Stolt is missing," Arcatio laughed angrily, "he was still there two days ago! Did he not get hit, but was he scared, or was he poisoned, so he was guarding against others?"
Alcatio slammed his cane on the ground hard: "These people don't just want to kill me, they want to uproot my power!"
"My lord, what should I do next?" Chloe asked.
"Look, you must find out the person who poisoned me!" Alcatio gritted his teeth and said, this time it was Aureliano who was poisoned, if it was next time, who would dare to guarantee that it would not be him who was poisoned, and whether he could die like Aureliano.
Alcatio then instructed the butler Eaton: "You must do everything you can to contact Stolt for me, I want to know whether he is dead or alive." ”
"As for myself, I want to go to the palace to meet Your Majesty, and let him know how much risk I, an old minister, have taken in order to maintain the supreme monarchy, and how loyal my Buendia family is!"
……
When Alcatio was furious because of the poisoning incident, William, whom he had been looking for, was sitting on the ship reviewing the documents.
The direction of the ship is Red Leaf Village, William's career has been focused on Kalmar City this year, this time he just took the opportunity to leave, to inspect the work of Red Leaf Village, especially the shipyard, William has high hopes for this, site selection, construction of the factory, digging people, he smashed countless Baileys on it, and he will definitely not be satisfied after the shipyard reaches the average shipbuilding level in the East China Sea, or even just a slight improvement.
