"How can it be?" Mr. Price slammed his fist against the wall in anger, "How dare anyone ruin my sister's birthday party."

"It doesn't have to be Miss Fremea." "This banquet, which brought together almost half of Paris's dignitaries and elites, should have anticipated that there would be no one who wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of political opponents or business rivals," said Meur Pasteur.

"That being said, it's a lot of work, and once you succeed, it's not just your competitors who make enemies." Elena said, "Is it possible that the other party is so sure that he will not be discovered?"

"Whatever his purpose." Mr. Price said with a serious expression, "As long as he dares to make a move on my sister, I will never let him go!"

"But there's one thing I don't quite understand." Bella said, "Now that these explosives have been arranged, they should be ready to detonate at any time, right?"

"That's right." Mr. Pasteur nodded.

"Here's the weirdness." Bella continued, "Mr. Price, are all the guests already here?"

"Yes." Price replied, "Except for Officer Christopher, who was dismissed because of the work of the police department, and Mr. Robespierre, who was busy with his official duties, everyone else had already been invited."

"So no one will come tonight?"

"So to speak."

"Isn't that strange to you? If all the people have arrived, and the explosives have already been prepared, then why hasn't they been detonated until now?"

"You mean......" Mr. Price seemed to understand something.

"Although I don't know why, there must be a reason why the other party has not done it for a long time." "Extrapolating from the current situation, there are two most likely scenarios. One is that the original plan did not happen."

If this is the case, Officer Christopher or Mr. Robespierre should be the target of the other party's desire to get rid of him.

Officer Christophe is an important figure in the Paris police department, and it is understandable that some people will hold grudges because of his work. And Monsieur Robespierre, who had just recently been promoted to Chancellor of the Exchequer, and was the leader of the Jacobin Club—almost the same position as Madame Roland—would probably not be able to count on ten fingers to get rid of him.

"Generally speaking, this kind of thing is indeed as early as possible, and if it is delayed, it will inevitably cause trouble." "Could it be that the target is Officer Christopher or Mr. Robespierre?"

"I don't rule it out." Bella continued, "Because the unknown one of the two didn't show up as expected, the other didn't do it right away."

"What about the other case?"

"If it's the other way...... It's just speculation," Bella replied, "and it's possible that negotiations are underway."

"Negotiation?"

"Negotiate with the threat of blowing up this place at any time."

Mr. Price was shocked. In the first case, the other party may suspend the operation and will not detonate the explosives; However, in the second case, it is much more troublesome, and it is completely unaware of who the other party is negotiating with and what the negotiation is, which means that it may be detonated at any time.

"Mr. Pasteur, how many explosives are there?" Mr. Price asked.

"It's almost done." "Give me fifteen more minutes," replied Mr. Pasteur, "and I should be able to remove all the leads around the villa."

"Fifteen minutes......" Mr. Price muttered.

He also thought about asking everyone to evacuate, but this would cause panic, and the people who planted the explosives were likely to mix in with the guests. If you act rashly, I am afraid that the gains outweigh the losses. And Fremea, as the central figure of today's ball, if she leaves the table without explanation, the other party will definitely cause alarm.

We can't abandon the lives of so many people in the arena for our own selfish interests. At least Mr. Price can't do that.

"Speaking of Mr. Price, don't you notice that something is wrong in the yard?" Elena asked, "Or have any suspicious people been here lately?"

With so many explosives, it is not possible to arrange them in a moment and a half.

"Actually, I usually spend most of my time working outside the home, sometimes I travel for several days, and the affairs of the family are basically handed over to the housekeeper Hillal, but recently he happened to return to his hometown. So, I asked Uli Housekeeping to come and help." Mr. Price replied.

"What are you talking about, Yuli Housekeeping?" Elena looked very surprised.

"Huh? Is there anything wrong with this company?" Mr. Price was puzzled, "I heard that their family's reputation in this area is okay?"

"Ugh...... Nothing, I just remembered some of the past. It shouldn't matter, though." Elena said.

When he was in Valdrazburg, Professor Anthony was commissioned by Uly's Housekeeping Company. And the "Mr. Yuri" that Bella and Elena saw at that time was actually a fake person by another person. Moreover, this matter should not be a secret, if the real Mr. Yuli is safe and sound, then the two things have nothing to do with each other, maybe it is just pure coincidence.

"So, is it Mr. Yuli from the housekeeping company who just greeted everyone and handed out handkerchiefs?" Bella asked.

"Yes, Mr. Yuri is in charge personally, and things are well arranged." Mr. Price seems to be more satisfied with this.

Elena recalls that the butler who flashed by him while chatting with Mr. Murray should not have known the two of them. No, even if you do, you may pretend not to know.

However, Elena didn't realize that he and the one who appeared in Valdrazburg would be the same person.

"What do you think, Bella?" Elena asked.

"I guess it's the real Mr. Yuri." Bella said, "Even with the camouflage technique, it is difficult to achieve two completely different aura. Unless, unless, there's the 'Fake Yuri II', then it's hard to say."

Because Valdraz was gone, they didn't see the real Mr. Yuli. Except for the one who has already appeared, if there is anyone else who is fake, they don't know.

"Would you like to call him over and ask him?" Elena suggested.

"No," Mr. Price objected, "if it were him, he would probably be desperate if he knew it was revealed."

At that time, not only his sister, but everyone in the venue will be implicated.

"Mr. Price is right." "We can't rush it yet, at least we have to wait for Mr. Pasteur to finish disposing of the explosives and be safe to do so."

Elena nodded understandingly.

Just when several people were at a loss, there was a figure wearing a black coat and a black hat outside the gate.

The crowd subconsciously defended.

However, Bella quickly recognized the identity of the comer.

"Officer Christopher?" Bella was surprised, "Why are you here?"

Still wearing this outfit?

"Is it really Mr. Christopher?" Price was also surprised, "I thought you weren't—"

"Shh——!h Officer Christopher covered his lips with his fingers, motioned for them to remain silent, and beckoned them to come over.

So, Mr. Price, along with Bella and Elena, came to the gate together.

Margaret and Elsa stayed behind to help Mr. Pasteur.

"What's wrong?" Mr. Price asked.

"Something happened."

Immediately afterward, Officer Christopher gave them a brief explanation of what had happened.

Monsieur Robespierre received a threatening letter this afternoon. The letter demanded that he give up the supplies for Austria and transfer them to Prussia, otherwise his daughter would be burned tonight.

"So you've found explosives." Officer Christopher looked relieved.

"Monsieur Pasteur is being demolished, and it should be safe soon." Bella said.

"This young man is really impressive." Officer Christopher praised, "Every time it helps us."

"Does the prisoner have a clue?" Mr. Price then asked.

"It's not clear yet." Officer Christopher replied, "Mr. Robespierre intends to deal with the other side first. I think there should be more than one prisoner."

Being able to plant explosives on this side of the villa and be responsible for detonating them, and to be able to negotiate with Monsieur Robespierre, is definitely not something that can be done alone.

"We also felt that the other party might have mixed in with the guests. But I don't dare to act rashly." Bella said.

"You're doing the right thing." "First and foremost, to make sure you're safe, that's why I'm here for the first time, and as for the prisoners over there, Officer Mister is on track."

"However, we don't yet know who the person hiding among the guests is. If you can't find it in time, you may still be in danger later." Elena said.

"What Miss Medici said is very true." Officer Christopher said, "Mr. Price, is there any way I can blend in with the guests?"

"This ......," Price looked a little embarrassed, "to be honest, it's no problem to take you in. But if you're so famous, who else in Paris doesn't know you?"

That's right.

Moreover, even if he was dressed in such black, just a dozen feet away, Bella could see through his identity at a glance.

However, if you really want to talk about it, only Bella can recognize it here, just like only Anna can communicate with the flowers and trees.

"Why don't I disguise myself again?" Officer Christopher said.

"Don't mind, I didn't hit you, officer." Elena said, "Besides, this is a ball, and if you dress too strangely, it will make it even more eye-catching, right?"
