Chapter 171: Strange
When Mason heard Smith's words, his face immediately turned red, and he pointed at Smith and shouted: "Smith, I can tell you that you are not welcome here, please leave immediately......"
Before Mason could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a cold voice, "Mason, you have gone too far, you dare to embarrass the guests invited by Mr. Henry personally, it seems that you did not take Mr. Henry seriously." ”
When Mason heard this voice, his expression immediately changed, and he turned around and said, "Mr. Hodge, things are not what you think, it was Smith who hit people first, and he didn't give Mr. Henry face." ”
Hodge was the one who spoke, an old man in his fifties and sixties, a little thin, but the expression on his face revealed a shrewd and strong aura.
"Well, you'll explain to Mr. Henry later." Hodge said, turned to Smith and said, "Mr. Smith, welcome to Henry's Manor, please come in now, Mr. Henry is waiting for you inside." ”
Smith nodded, didn't speak, and turned back to the car. Then the convoy started from scratch and headed for the manor.
"That Hodge has been here a long time ago, and he has been standing not far away to watch the excitement, until he showed up at the critical moment just now." Lin Hao looked at Smith and said.
Smith frowned, "It's not surprising, that Hodge is old Henry's butler, and there has always been a conflict between him and Mason. Therefore, Hodge was waiting there, waiting for Mason to make a big fuss, so that he could catch Mason's sore foot and give him a blow. ”
Then Smith told Lin Hao about some things about the Henry family, and Lin Hao listened to it. Then you can see what is going on.
It turns out that the Henry family is one of the three most powerful families in the United States, and Smith's casino is supported by these three families, and everything is very good, but since the patriarch of the Henry family, Henry, was seriously ill some time ago, things have become a little delicate, because the old Henry's son Henry II has always had a strong relationship with Smith, so after Henry II took over the power of the Henry family, he began to fight Smith's power. And the last time those fighting masters who came to play at Smith Casino were found by Henry II.
But. Because of the recent sudden improvement of old Henry's condition. So Henry II also immediately reined in, and this time Smith only came here, in addition to being personally invited by the old Henry, and he wanted to talk to the old Henry about Henry II.
Soon. The convoy slowly drove through an iron gate. Inside the iron gate is a green lawn. There are also a few ancient pines standing in the middle of the lawn, which makes it feel very peaceful and comfortable at first sight, and the convoy slowly drove for a few minutes on a path in the middle of the lawn. Finally stopped in front of a white villa. After the bodyguard opened the car door, Smith and Lin Hao walked down together.
As soon as Smith and Lin Hao got out of the car, a white girl standing in front of the villa greeted them, "Uncle Smith, it's a pleasure to meet you!" ”
"Hehe, Natasha, you're getting more and more beautiful, and I'm glad to meet you!" Smith said politely and gently hugging the white girl.
After Smith finished speaking, he introduced Lin Hao, who was standing on the side, to the white girl, this white girl is called Natasha, and she is the granddaughter of old Henry, but she is not the daughter of Henry II, but the child of the eldest son of old Henry.
Lin Hao said hello politely and looked at the white girl named Natasha.
Natasha is a standard European girl, about eighteen or nineteen years old, with bright flowing blonde hair, a pair of seductive blue eyes, very fair skin, and a tall and slender figure.
At this time, Natasha was looking at Lin Hao with a smile on her face, but Lin Hao had a strange feeling in her heart, that is, behind the smile on Natasha's face, there seemed to be a faint trace of anxiety.
After politely shaking hands with Lin Hao, Natasha turned around and walked into the white villa with Smith and Lin Hao.
The group walked in very quietly, after coming to the hall, Lin Hao raised his eyes and looked around, at this time there were already many guests in the hall, these people were standing there in a pile of east and west, whispering, and among these people there was a very rich-looking old man, who was socializing everywhere, presumably this was the old Mr. Henry.
However, Lin Hao's gaze only stayed on the old Mr. Henry's body for a moment, and then he fixed his eyes firmly on a middle-aged man with long hair who had been following behind the old Henry, who had been silently following behind the old Henry without saying a word, and just nodded very coldly to those who approached to greet him, and then he was silent, and his eyes were always patrolling around the house.
This man is strong! This Lin Hao's first feeling! Although Lin Hao didn't observe this man carefully with his senses, the light that came out of his eyes made Lin Hao feel like he was being watched.
But there was one thing that also made Lin Hao feel a little strange, that is, this man had a very frightening face, except for the small pits and paleness on this face, there was no expression at all, that is, his eyes that made people feel peeping were moving, otherwise it could be said that this man's face was a dead man's face.
Lin Hao looked at this face, and suddenly had an illusion in his heart, he felt that this face did not seem to be the true face of this man, and behind this fake face was a demon that was roaring......
At this time, the man seemed to feel that someone was observing him, and he immediately turned his head to look at Lin Hao. When Lin Hao saw the man's gaze glancing over, he immediately reined in the qi of his whole body! Quietly stood behind Smith.
The man's gaze only glanced at Lin Hao, and then he didn't pause and then scanned some people around him, but after he scanned for a week, he didn't find anything, so he immediately took his gaze back and followed closely behind old Mr. Henry.
Next, some guests who were familiar with Smith came over to greet him, and Lin Hao didn't plan to know anyone, so he said hello to Smith, and then walked to a relatively quiet sofa and sat down.
As soon as Smith saw Lin Hao walking away alone, he didn't say much, because the friend he wanted to introduce to Lin Hao hadn't come at this time, so Smith didn't stop Lin Hao but chatted briefly with these people in front of him temporarily.
Lin Hao sat on the sofa, took a wine glass and began to carefully look at the surrounding environment, and at this moment, a middle-aged white man also slowly walked in front of Lin Hao with a wine glass. After raising his glass to Lin Hao, the middle-aged white man smiled and said, "Hello, I'm Gwihank!" ”
"Hello, Lin Jie!" Because of his identity, Lin Hao casually said a name.
"Lin Jie? Oh, Mr. Lin is Chinese, right? Gervay asked, somewhat surprised.
Lin Hao saw Gewei's expression, his brows moved slightly, and he said, "Yes, I'm Chinese, what's wrong?" ”
Ge Wei smiled and said, "Hehe, Mr. Lin, there is nothing wrong with you being Chinese, it's just that you can appear here, which makes me feel a little curious!" ”
"Oh, why? Isn't it possible to let the Chinese in here? Lin Hao said coldly.
"Hehe, Mr. Lin said with a smile, it's not that Chinese people are not allowed here, it's because Mr. Henry has never invited a Chinese to attend any banquet he has held for so many years. So, it's a little bit of a surprise that you're here! Gervay said with a smile.
"Oh, that's right!" Lin Hao nodded and said.
Gewei suddenly looked around at this time, and then said in a low voice with a smile: "Mr. Lin, you probably don't know the reason for this, right?" Saying that, Gewei glanced at Lin Hao, and after seeing Lin Hao shaking his head, he continued: "Actually, the Chinese cannot appear at the banquet held by Mr. Henry, not because Mr. Henry has any bad feelings towards the Chinese, but because Mr. Henry's grandfather died in the war on the land of China, so Mr. Henry's father stipulated that in the future, all the land of the Henry family will never be allowed to set foot on the Chinese." ”
Lin Hao listened, nodded and didn't speak, however, he also felt a little strange in his heart, Smith shouldn't know these things, but why did he still bring himself here, could it be that Smith had already greeted Old Henry? But if you have to say hello, why should this old Henry change the rules for decades to let himself, a Chinese, step into this manor? (To be continued......)
