For the next day's party, when the time and place were determined, Gu Wu entered the chat room.

Gu Wu, who stayed in the room, stared at the screen of his laptop, his expression was definitely not relaxed, and he began to type on the keyboard with his hands, and sent it out on the public channel.

[Good evening, everyone, I think we need to talk about the banquet tomorrow night, which can be regarded as a supplement to some details. 】

Seeing the latest information sent by Gu Wu, the participants who are still online have responded.

For them, the evening is just a prelude, but it is also quite important.

After all, at the party, we can preliminarily confirm each other's ideas and see if there is a possibility of cooperation.

[Mr. Gu Wu, sure enough, the most important thing is the issue of security, although the joint turmoil that occurred before has not spread to the city, it should not be taken lightly. 】

[As mentioned above, ensuring safety is the only way to make the party a success.] 】

[In addition to the regular checks, it is best to check the experience of each participant, such as where they have been recently, and if their whereabouts are suspicious, catch them, and return their freedom when they are clarified.] 】

Everybody is giving an opinion, and the content of the opinion is much the same, because everyone understands what the situation is.

The unrest in the northern city is likely to spread here, so none of the participants want to get close to them in the face of those who are 'potentially dangerous'.

[In that case, let's put together the list of participants in advance, and update the e-invitation card that was supposed to be sent out until tomorrow morning.] 】

The organizer, who is the mayor, made a proposal, and when there was no objection, all the members sent their entourage lists through a private message in the chat room.

Gu Wu also sent the names of himself and Kasumigaoka, Altair and others, and also added the recent itinerary.

[Please note in advance that except for a few participants, the rest of the participants must provide a receipt for the transportation or a registration form for each hotel, and we will verify it.] 】

The mayor added, and several people complained that it was too much trouble, but in the end they still chose to cooperate.

After a short exchange, Gu Wu found a message from the mayor.

The content transmitted by the other party is very brief.

[Mr. Gu Wu, in view of the special situation at present, until we are unable to determine whether there is a perpetrator, please be sure to stay in the same position with me at that time. 】

[Do you mean acting together after the party starts?] Don't worry about this, if there is a criminal who really mixes into the party, once the other party makes a move, it will be a good thing for me. 】

[I just hope that I can protect Mr. Gu Wu. 】

[Well, I understand what you mean, but wouldn't it be better for me to be a bait? 】

Gu Wu didn't wait for the other party to respond, and then picked up his speech

[They'll show up sooner or later, right?] It's just a matter of time or time, so being able to get them out early will make it less dangerous. 】

After all, Gu Wu was ready to deal with the attack and was on standby.

If you keep procrastinating, the whole person will become lazy, scattered, and unable to concentrate with the passage of time.

[That's right, everything is according to what Mr. Gu Wu thinks. 】

In the face of Gu Wu's statement, the mayor did not continue to extend the topic after expressing his understanding, because for him, Gu Wu's decision was unopposed.

Seeing the mayor go offline, Gu Wu closed his laptop, and the door that was not completely locked was knocked at this moment.

Kasumigaoka, who was standing at the doorway, had two cups of coffee in his hand.

"Did you see the news?"

"What?"

"There are fireworks tonight, it seems to celebrate the arrival of snow and ice; It's the first time I've seen anyone celebrate snow, and it's something special about this city. ”

"For them, snow is the beginning of the year, at least that's what it says."

Gu Wu left the bed and took the coffee that Kasumigaoka handed him.

"We often say that 'the plan of the year lies in spring', but no one says that 'spring' can't be replaced with 'winter', right?"

"Does Mr. Gu Wu like winter?"

"I don't like it, but I don't hate it either."

"Quite a sly answer, rather than an answer."

Kasumigaoka expressed dissatisfaction, but her expression quickly returned to normal, and she thought it was still hot after taking a sip of coffee, so she asked curiously

"Then who does Mr. Gu Wu like in the room?"

This is a rather abrupt topic.

Who do you like?

Gu Wu, who was asked such a question, did not perfunctory the past, but thought about his experience so far.

Most of the likes in Kasumigaoka's mouth are not 'likes between friends', but 'likes between loves', Gu Wu, who understands this meaning, drank half a cup of coffee, and the heat flow stopped in his stomach......

Fireworks bloomed in Gu Wu's field of vision.

Against the backdrop of the brilliant colors of the night sky, Gu Wu replied

"I like everyone, that's the answer, but if I had to explain who it is and who I care about more, Miss Kasumigaoka is sure."

Gu Wu stared at the remaining half-white coffee, indicating that he was reflecting the light of the fireworks in the distance.

"But just like the protagonist in what you wrote, I still have one last thing to deal with, so I won't care too much about that aspect until then."

"In the story I wrote, the protagonist is quite courageous, what will Mr. Gu Wu do in the future?"

"What will you do?"

Although he answered with a rhetorical question, Gu Wu already had the answer in his heart.

"The thing to do in the future is very simple, of course, I propose to the person I like, I don't want to be single for the rest of my life."

"I always feel that Mr. Gu Wu has suddenly become a child."

"Really?"

Gu Wu didn't quite understand the meaning of Xia Zhiqiu.

The black-haired girl was relieved of the coffee cup, and when the new fireworks rose into the air, she came to Gu Wu.

At the touch of his cheeks, Kasumigaoka was already walking towards his room with the cup.

"Looks like you've got to work hard......"

Gu Wu patted his cheek lightly with his hand, and walked towards his room like Xia Zhiqiu.

————

By the next day.

Since everyone chose to accompany Gu Wu to the party, no one went out, and all chose to stay in the hotel to standby.

As the time approached, before leaving, Gu Wu asked Shimazaki Instant and Kasumigaoka to put on makeup.

Makeup and hairstyling are all handled by a special stylist, which is also a service specially prepared by the mayor.

And Gu Wu also changed into a suit, not used to this sense of restraint, he took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, anyway, it was only a few hours.

Because the male preparation was quite simple, Gu Wu entered the car first and waited.

About twenty minutes later, outside the door opened by the driver, a group of well-dressed girls appeared in the field of vision.

Kasumigaoka, who was dressed in an evening dress, walked in front of the line with a coat, and she looked beautiful and solemn in a black dress, and it was hard to think that she was usually a girl who liked to play pranks and occasionally had a black belly.

Of course, white and blue are just the background colors, and embroidery and lace are dotted everywhere as decorations, among which Altair's expression is different from usual, and most of them are a little shy.

Tina's dresses were exactly the same as Louise's, except that the lines of the flowers were in different directions, and they both liked it very much, and they sat in the car quite happily.

The last one is Ying Lili, who was a little late, the original iconic double ponytail was replaced by long golden hair that was spread out, which increased her sense of tranquility, but she was in the middle of a trot, the violet-colored skirt flew up, and when she almost slipped, Gu Wu, who rushed out of the car, grabbed her.

"It's worthy of Mr. Gu Wu."

"Be careful, I can't help you all the time."

"That's the only time you make mistakes."

Ying Li said mischievously, and then entered the car.

At the moment when everyone gathered, the driver also drove according to the reserved route.

By the course of the night, the city had been dyed white, but passers-by were undaunted and strolled the streets in a well-dressed manner.

At this moment, it is past dusk, and the street lights are gradually turning on, and colorful neon lights are immediately concentrated in the field of vision.

Cars passing through the downtown area began to drive westward, and soon the surrounding buildings were gradually decreasing, and the road became straight, and the sides were lined with street trees illuminated by street lamps.

"Master! We're coming! ”

Louise, who was sitting in the passenger seat, was the first to see the view at the end.

As Luise said, the car soon stopped, and the driver immediately left the driver's seat and walked to the back door to open it.

After thanking the driver, Gu Wu and his party walked out of the car.

The cold air immediately engulfed the whole person, and when the exhaled white qi dissipated, Gu Wu saw the scene in front of him.

At this moment, the front of Gu Wu, who was on the left side of the central circular fountain, was a palace-like building.

The brightly lit building is surrounded by a plaza full of plants, and its entrance is quite bustling with people.

Without thinking too much, Gu Wu took the lead and walked towards the waiter and security personnel standing at the door.

Seeing Gu Wu, the other party didn't ask or ask for anything, just let Gu Wu and the others walk over from the security inspection machine, and the process was quite simple.

"Everyone else has to check the invitation card on their mobile phones, and Mr. Gu Wu doesn't have to provide anything."

Ying Lili observed the situation nearby, and she couldn't help but say it with a little understanding.

"Huhuhu, Sister Yingli Li, this is the greatness of the master!"

Louise, who began to boast about Gu Wu, looked proud and swaggered towards the side of the hall.

Tina, who reminded her not to run around, immediately followed in Luise's footsteps.

"Mr. Gu Wu, let's go over too."

Xia Zhiqiu stood beside Gu Wu, and as soon as she finished saying that, she saw Ying Lili reproduce her behavior.

After Gu Wu, who was caught in the middle, reminded the two not to quarrel, he walked with them to the end of the passage, where there was a door that connected to the real party scene.

Altair, who was following behind, walked side by side with Shimazaki Instantane while not forgetting to observe the situation everywhere, she was more cautious than Gu Wu in this regard.

Originally, Altai didn't plan to attend the party, but when he thought that Gu Wu might be attacked, he decided to go with him.

And Shimazaki Moment, who was a little surprised, naturally joined the camp of 'going to the party together', and it looked like he was looking forward to it.

Back to the present.

Louise and Tina, who were in Gu Wu's field of vision, pushed open the door together, and a brighter light than the hall they were currently in spilled out from the cracks in the gradually opening door.

When the door is fully opened, the lively voices and soft music become clearly audible.

Facing the new party participants, all the people on the scene naturally focused their attention on Gu Wu and the others.

As soon as they saw that it was Gu Wu, their eyes became even sharper, and the thoughtful participants were already ready to wait for the opportunity to move.

Gu Wu greeted everyone at the scene, and then focused his attention on a few passers-by.

To be precise, they are not 'passers-by', but 'aliens'.

Because in this party, there are also non-human beings representing alien races among the participants, and everyone accepts these different people very well, mostly because the world itself is such a setting.

There is magic, there are superpowers, so it is not surprising that there are aliens.

It's just that everyone is usually in a state of non-interference with each other, and at most they will contact each other in the purchase of some materials, and it is impossible to gather together as they are now.

Sure enough, the aliens are also very concerned about this incident, could it be that among the people who created the chaos of the northern city, there are also aliens from other regions?

Thinking of this, the music suddenly stopped, and a middle-aged man who was clapping his hands to attract everyone's attention appeared in front of everyone.

"Hello everyone, I'm the mayor of this city called 'Winterles' - Sword Musbel."

His tone was deep and meticulous.

"I would like to welcome all the ladies and gentlemen to come here and join me in the evening, and I hope that this will be the beginning of victory, so that we can win this battle against the criminals! What is needed now is to work together! ”

Everyone who came here knew what was going on, so in order to avoid losses, they wanted to work together to solve the problem of the criminals who were getting bigger and bigger.

The joint unrest is no joke, and if left unchecked, the flames will spread around the world, dragging everyone into the water

"Of course, this time we should be most grateful to Mr. Gu Wu and his friends who came from thousands of miles to attend the party, as long as we have Mr. Gu Wu's support, we will definitely be able to tide over the difficulties and eliminate the criminals!"

Mayor Sword directly transferred the center to Gu Wu.

Gu Wu, who suddenly became the focus, had no choice but to express his position

"I'll support you as much as I can."

Hearing this answer, the participants began to talk and showed excitement.

"That's it! This party has officially begun!! ”

Mayor Sword makes an announcement, and the music resumes.

It was a lively night when the first tune was played......
