Chapter 46: Lessons
Alice stood quietly on the railing of the second floor and watched Gong Bing walk downstairs, at the top of the open stairwell, a gorgeous glass chandelier hung in the center, surrounded by stairs, and the red carpet stretched down the stairs from the second floor, and people would not make any noise when walking on it.
The sound of conversation, music and the sound of various glasses could be heard faintly from a distance.
A middle-aged woman in a business suit, with maroon hair coiled behind her head and a pair of black, thin-rimmed glasses, stands behind Alice.
"Miss, do you think Son Nate will help with this?"
"Nate will help with this little favor, although it is rumored that he has a bad relationship with his brother, but this is just a gesture, he will not refuse, and it seems that this is a family invitation, he is just helping to convey it." At this time, Alice had put away her usual smile and said expressionlessly: "His brother intends to run for Congress, and this is the time when he needs support from all sides, as long as it is not a factional confrontation, he will not refuse, even if there is any conflict, but it does not prevent us from contacting in private." ”
"However, it seems that your brothers are also interested in wooing the Nate family, and we're just... Will it be a little late. The middle-aged woman said with some confusion.
"Don't pay attention to those self-righteous brothers, as long as we do our thing." Alice waved her hand, turned to the side of the hallway, and leaned against the window.
The middle-aged woman nodded.
"Marwa, have you found out about the fire in the warehouse?"
"The matter has probably been clarified, a little girl who was offered a dark bounty came to Green Town, and the two bounty hunters who ran across the line were killed."
"Who did the Evans Song?" Alice looked out the window.
"That's right, it's the people over there in the printing house, and the ones who were killed were two first-level little rats, but it's strange that they reacted so violently, in the past, as long as no one used their abilities to cause chaos, they wouldn't have bothered at all."
"Is there anything strange about the girl who was bountied?"
"The same first-level guy, the strength is not worth mentioning, except for the fact that her mother is a 'summoner', there is no other news, as for why it was rewarded, there is no way to know for the time being."
"Oh, someone dares to offer a bounty for the 'summoner's daughter', is the person still in Green Town?" Alice asked, turning her head to look at her.
"I've spoken to Barton Sr., and he's confirmed that the girl has left Greentown." The middle-aged woman shook her head: "But the other party is vague and seems to be hiding something." ”
"Since it has nothing to do with us, this matter is over, let's go back, we can't keep the guests waiting too long, presumably my mother is sending people around to find me now." Alice shook her head slightly, then said with a smile returned.
*****************
Footsteps echoed in the long hallway, and the walls on the right were filled with huge floor-to-ceiling glass.
Gong Bing was in a pretty good mood at the moment, pacing slowly in the corridor, walking towards the banquet hall, thinking about how to use the evolution point of this income as he walked.
But he was stopped by an unexpected person.
"Gabriel, what did Alice ask you to go up to the second floor?" Scola asked straight to the point, his tone not very friendly.
At this moment, he was stopping in the middle of the corridor, wearing a handmade suit and leather shoes, coupled with a delicate hairstyle, and a faint perfume, it could be seen that he had made some careful preparations for tonight's banquet, but the other party was obviously not in a good mood at the moment.
For this guy who is both a benefactor and an indirect murderer to himself, Gong Bing's mood is somewhat complicated, if it weren't for the trouble he sent his two younger brothers to find Gabriel, he might not have had a chance to pass through rebirth, but for Gabriel himself, he is a murderer.
According to other novel routines, since he inherited Gabriel's body and regained it, it stands to reason that in order to understand cause and effect, he should also let Scola exchange his life for a life, but in fact, Gabriel's soul had already disappeared that night, and there was only a trace of inexplicable emotions left, which could only have an effect on Gong Bing's thoughts in some aspects.
For example, in dealing with the relationship with Bailey at the same table, I have been affected, and so on, as well as the family around me.
But for Scola, Gabriel did not have any influence on him, Gong Bing privately guessed that Gabriel did not know that Scola's character was involved until he died, so there was no way to resent, but because of his resentment towards Carter and Bruce, Gong Bing would take the opportunity to teach him a lesson.
"Are you talking to me?" Gong Bing looked left and right, and finally asked Scola if he was still thinking about evolution.
"Are you deaf or blind and don't see me talking to you?" Regarding Gong Bing's somewhat contrived appearance, Scola said angrily.
"What do I want to tell you for Mao?" Gong Bing spread his hands, he felt that he should leave directly, this guy in front of him was like a male dog in estrus.
Who does this guy think he is? Think I'm his little brother?
"Excuse me, I'm going to go." He was about to bypass him, but was immediately blocked by another tall figure.
A big man with the same suit and leather shoes and black sunglasses stood in front of him, looking like a bodyguard.
"Whether you are really stupid or fake crazy, I also made it clear, Alice is not something that people like you can reverie, you should weigh your identity clearly, don't feel uncomfortable."
"You have this time to find me here to be majestic, it is better to turn around from here and go back to wrestle with Wright, showing off your presence." Gong Bing clasped his ears, and his tone was not so polite.
During the banquet, Wright was by Alice's side for almost the entire banquet, talking and laughing with each other, and it could be seen that the two were quite close.
And Scola, who has been pursuing her at school, suddenly saw such an airborne rival in love, of course, he was indignant, but he was afraid that Wright had a deep background, so he just endured it next to him and didn't dare to show it.
He dared not speak out because of Wright's anger, but he didn't have such scruples in the face of Gong Bing.
"It seems that if I don't teach you a lesson, you can't recognize the status quo." Scola grinned angrily, nodded at the man in sunglasses, and stood aside with his arms folded.
The man in sunglasses is at least two meters tall, a head taller than Gong Bing, who is almost one meter eight, with a bronzed complexion, and a suit that can't hide his muscular figure, if an ordinary person stands in front of him, nine and a half out of ten will be intimidated by the other party's momentum, and he is afraid and can't afford to resist.
In the eyes of the man in sunglasses, Gong Bing is just an ordinary student, and he doesn't teach as much as he wants in front of him, and after hearing the employer's request, he stretched out his left hand and grabbed Gong Bing.
Gong Bing naturally couldn't be caught by the other party.
He slapped away the other party's hand, took a sideways step closer to the tall man, punched him in the abdomen with his left hand, and then grabbed the other party's separated left hand and twisted it, and dislocated it with a click.
The man in sunglasses couldn't react at all, and he was knocked to the ground twice, but this guy was quite tough, and even if he dislocated his arm in the abdomen, he only snorted.
Don't look at Gong Bing's clothes are not inconspicuous, after such a long time of exercise, coupled with the practice of martial arts, his body is full of strong and toned muscles, and his strength is much higher than that of ordinary people.
This bodyguard may be considered a master among ordinary people, but in the face of a martial artist who has practiced secret martial arts, it is impossible to be an opponent, not to mention that the other party does not have a gun in hand.
