Chapter 449: Bernard Murphy
Bernard Murphy. ”
With an affectionate salutation, the precious and ornate oak door was pushed open.
A hot blonde woman in an evening dress walked in with a skirt and, after seeing the man looking at his pocket watch in contemplation, couldn't help but complain: "My dear Mr. Murphy, everyone is waiting for your appearance." ”
As she spoke, the woman brought a gust of incense to Bernard Murphy's shoulder, and naughtily tickled her hair.
"Miss Norma."
Bernard Murphy finally spoke, and his voice had a mellow, magnetic voice that was characteristic of middle-aged people, which would always make people feel inexplicably reassured.
But the clear-hearted Norma heard something unusual in the voice.
"My greatest man, are you thinking about something that doesn't go your way?" Norma cupped the cheek of the man opposite, her pretty eyes full of fascination.
She was deeply attracted by the elegant nobleman in front of her.
Whether it is his conversation, knowledge, temperament, family background, or the wealth and power of the country.
"Of course not, just a moment of irritability." Bernard Murphy felt the woman's warm and soft palm and smiled, "But I have been completely taken away by the beautiful Miss Norma, so can I have the honor of inviting you to dance?" ”
Seeing Bernard Murphy, who had gracefully stood up and held her palm, Miss Norma smiled sweetly, "Of course, my greatest man." ”
The oak door opened, and Norma pulled Mr. Murphy to his feet.
In an instant, the hall erupted in the warmest applause.
The owner of this ball venue, the owner of the steel battleship, Count Bernard Murphy, has finally appeared.
Countless stammering, flattering eyes, countless words of praise, unreservedly dedicated.
"Thank God that we were able to witness such a great scene in the waters of the East."
A tall, lanky man raised his glass, he was a distinguished lord from England.
His words instantly resonated.
Countless people in the audience chimed in.
For a while, the atmosphere in the venue became more and more enthusiastic.
Bernard Murphy's mood was finally happy, and he silently laughed at himself just now, and he was worried about the inexplicable mood.
How could the descendant of the elegant and powerful Hell Family lose his grace so much?
With his understanding of the weapons.
If there is no news, it is the best report to yourself.
Shrugging, Bernard Murphy also raised a glass of red wine.
"Thank you, Lord Ida, for letting me drink such a sweet red wine."
A little humor, and laughter erupted all around.
For a while, the atmosphere in the stadium reached its highest.
Bernard Murphy showed great communicative skills and did not neglect every guest.
"Isn't Princess Lorna here yet?"
A few minutes later, Bernard Murphy stepped out of the crowd and whispered to the butler who was already waiting.
The old butler, who was about 60 years old with gray hair but an elegant temperament, bowed slightly in respect and said, "Just 15 seconds ago, I received a message from Her Highness Lorna from 10 minutes ago. ”
"Her Royal Highness Princess Lorna's itinerary has changed, as she has just returned from Mars and her grandmother has called her back."
"Thanks to the Queen's glow, I can only put my plans to come here for the ball on hold for the time being."
Hearing the butler's words, Bernard Murphy fell silent.
His suspicious personality instinctively thought that there seemed to be something wrong with this.
But the helmsman of that noble family, the old but courageous old woman, made him have to think seriously and even choose to believe in existence.
"It's a shame."
Bernard Murphy shrugged, smiled, and muttered to himself, before continuing to turn back into the crowd.
The grand reception continued.
It's just that Bernard Murphy in the crowd has become more and more irritable as time goes by.
Maybe the things that didn't go well happened one after another, which made him feel a kind of boredom.
In short, this kind of uncontrollable emotion that appears out of thin air is very bad for him.
"Why do I feel a little uncomfortable?"
While dancing with the beautiful Miss Norma, this thought crossed Bernard Murphy's mind.
……
……
The sky went from sunny to somewhat gloomy to finally pitch black.
For the first time, the people in the south of Shang saw Lu Ze who was in a state of rest with his eyes closed.
Out of boredom, it took them only two hours to scavenge the moss from the seashore.
For the remaining three hours, Cui Zhao, Tian He and others dragged Xu Xiushu to sit on the beach and had a grand barbecue.
"Barbecue?"
Just when the question just rose, Xu Xiushu suddenly found that these seemingly honest guys took out pieces of octopus feet from the marching box?
Squid whiskers?
Zi –
The green smoke floated, especially when the condiments exclusive to Comrade Tian He were sprinkled, and the attractive fragrance was no longer reserved.
Xu Xiushu was a little embarrassed at first, but after tasting this soul-touching delicacy, he finally joined the barbecue army completely.
"Maybe the most popular thing in our lives is to sit on an isolated island in the East China Sea and eat barbecue."
Hearing the emotion of the soldiers, Xu Xiushu did not forget to participate in the sentence when he was feasting, "Yes, in fact, I am more afraid of being eaten by the sea beast that suddenly pops out while eating barbecue." ”
Looking at Cui Zhao, Tian He and others who were looking at him strangely, Xu Xiushu gave a thumbs up and praised: "I didn't say it, Shang Nan's brothers are all pure masters, and I am convinced by Xu Xiu's courage and pride!" ”
"Alas, I really don't know when Commander Yang hid an iron army like you!"
Hearing this bottomless rainbow fart, even Tian He was blushing, not to mention Colonel Cui Zhao, who was a little thin-skinned, could only cough to cover it up at the moment.
"Well, actually, we didn't dare at first."
Feeling a bit fantastical to say, Tian He didn't know how to say that there was a subdued crystal snapping turtle outside, and there was a human being who was a hundred times more terrifying than the crystal snapping turtle.
In fact, they felt that the sea beasts that were more daring at the moment were still daring to appear.
Seeing such a terrifying barbecue event and daring to appear, it must be really not afraid of death.
"Huh?"
"Why does it feel like the night is coming so quickly here?"
Tian He was still sorting out the wording, when he heard a soldier next to him muttering to himself in some surprise.
Hearing what the warrior said, they simultaneously glanced up at the sky.
It was indeed evident that there was a noticeable darkness in the sky.
This is different from the normal time node, which seems to come three hours earlier than the night.
"Whatever, what's going on in the sea is normal."
"Maybe there's a dark cloud just in time."
Rong Chou muttered to himself, but a voice came from the side.
"It's not normal."
