The Gu Mansion is also a mansion with an old age.

Originally, it was the former residence of the French consul Pieguiroux, and the design is very exotic, with plane trees planted on all sides, and imitation Renaissance sculptures and fountains placed at the door.

Under the porch, four marble columns are erected, and a butler in a black suit greets guests outside the door.

Seeing Zhou Erya, the housekeeper hurriedly greeted him with a smile on his face: "Master Zhou, our master has been waiting for you for a long time, and I ordered you to come in as soon as I saw you." ”

Being a housekeeper in such a rich and noble family, you can't do anything else, of course, your eyesight has to be the first. Although the housekeeper had never seen Zhou Erya, with only one or two blurry photos, he could remember Zhou Gongzi's characteristics and recognize him at a glance in the crowd.

But...... Eyesight is of little use to Zhou Erya.

He glanced at the butler nonchalantly and shook his head: "I don't know you, I want to go shopping first." ”

Which...... How can there be such a thing?

The housekeeper was dumbfounded.

The host's family told him that this Zhou Gongzi was an important guest, and he had important matters to discuss, so he would be invited in as soon as he came.

But looking at Zhou Gongzi's attitude, that doesn't care at all?

So what's the matter?

He thought about the people waiting inside, his heart was furious, although he knew that this young man must also have an extraordinary background, he still couldn't help but persuade: "Master Zhou, in addition to my master, there are many celebrities waiting for you......"

Although I don't know where this kid comes from, it's always too big.

"Oh."

Zhou Erya nodded lightly.

He still didn't listen at all, just looked around for himself.

"What's wrong?"

Han Yu felt a little embarrassed, and quickly pulled him: "Let's go in first." ”

He felt that Zhou Erya seemed to be very familiar with the neighborhood, and felt that he was going to be a demon again, so he wanted to quickly pull him into the door, so as not to leak again.

Zhou Erya didn't object, and followed Han Yu into the door, and the housekeeper wanted to invite him into the inner hall again, but his body shook and he had already squeezed into the crowd, and the housekeeper was inconvenient to catch up, so he had to go back and report to Gu Guanzhong.

"Already here?"

Gu Guanzhong was quite happy. Anyway, this is the third son of the Shanghai Overseer's family, and he is willing to reward him to save face.

"Why aren't you invited in?"

He shook the ash of his cigar and gestured to his feet.

"Yes, yes!" Several people around also echoed together, "I heard that Zhou Gongzi is wise and clever, and has helped the patrol house solve a lot of murder cases, so I am really curious to meet him." ”

The housekeeper said with a sad face: "Master, he still refuses to come in, probably because he wants to go out to see the excitement." ”

He originally wanted to say a few bad things about Zhou Erya, but looking at the words and looks, seeing that everyone's attitude towards Zhou Erya was different, although he was not sure of Zhou Gongzi's identity, he also knew that he couldn't be lazy, so he quickly changed his tone and found an excuse for Zhou Erya.

Gu Guanzhong was stunned for a moment, he was scheming, and when he saw the housekeeper's face, he guessed a few clues, and he couldn't help but feel angry in his heart.

Although Zhou Erya is the son of the Overseer, he is only a small character after all, and he is so enthusiastic about the invitation, he actually has to put on a shelf, which is too much to give him Gu someone's face.

However, Gu Guanzhong's city mansion was very deep, and seeing that the guests around him were all there, he only nodded lightly and said: "It is also common sense that young people love to be lively and do not want to get together with us old men. Just let him play outside for a while, and then invite him in when the party is almost over. ”

The steward was ordered to leave. Gu Guanzhong snorted, greeted everyone, and opened the topic.

Zhou Erya didn't join in the fun.

He took a glass of champagne from his hand, took a sip, and wandered around the Gu Mansion, seemingly interested in the corridors and the rooms with closed doors.

"Hey, this is someone else's house."

Han Yu had to follow him to remind him.

Zhou Erya smiled, he stood at the edge of the corridor with his hands in his hands, on the edge of light and darkness, looking at the locked door in the distance, his cuffs revealing a touch of gold.

"The building was completed in 1912, before the First World War broke out and the French were not so strong, and Pieguiroux built the mansion and quickly ...... it"

After the Franco-Prussian War, Germany rose strongly, and the French had been in an embarrassing position, and the French consul Piergurous was not having a good time at that time, and the mansion could not be kept, so he simply sold it generously.

The buyer is a son of a family in Suzhou and is being used as a holiday villa in Shanghai.

Later, I don't know what happened, this house was vacant for many years, and it was not until three years ago that it was bought by Gu Guanzhong and renovated as a new home.

However, the layout of the whole house has not changed.

Zhou Erya is like a few treasures and introduced to Han Yu.

Han Yu was stunned: "You investigate this case, you don't need to check other people's houses so clearly, right?" What does this have to do with the dismemberment? ”

"It's okay."

Zhou Erya shook her head: "It's just a personal interest." ”

Personal Interests...... All right. Han Yu couldn't cry or laugh, this reason was very good, and he had no room for refutation.

The Gu family's party was a gathering of the upper class people in the French Concession, and celebrities gathered, and everyone pretended to greet and communicate, the scene was complicated, and there was a wonderful sense of mixing when it looked like.

There are foreigners in suits and leather shoes, there are also old people in robes and horse coats, beauties in foreign shirts, and celebrities in cheongsam. Everyone sees the world as completely different, but they try to say the same high-society rhetoric, falsely thinking that they are communicating.

Han Yu felt sick to his stomach when he looked at it, so it was better to stay quietly with Zhou Erya.

- But Gu Xueli won't let him go.

Gu Xueli, who was dressed in a sky blue dress, was embellished with various sequins, like a proud little princess, who struggled out of the crowd and grabbed Han Yu.

"Why are you here at this time? I'm suffocating. ”

As Gu Guanzhong's pearl, she is of course the focus of the crowd, but she has not liked this kind of occasion since she was a child, if it weren't for waiting for Han Yu, she wouldn't want to be bored here.

"Didn't I come early?"

Han Yu muttered and stepped back slightly, in public, he was not used to being so intimate with Gu Xueli.

Gu Xueli didn't care, and approached him wantonly and boldly: "Have you seen my father?" Hurry up and scare him, or he really won't take it seriously. ”

This kind of bizarre story, of course, Gu Xueli could see that her father didn't take it to heart, she was actually still a little worried, so she hoped that Zhou Erya and Han Yu would persuade him well.

"Not ...... yet"

Han Yu spread his hands and pointed to Zhou Erya not far away.

Zhou Erya's eyes wandered, her steps wandered, and she turned around, not knowing what she was looking for. In short, it's like being out of step with the world.

"What is he looking for?" Gu Xueli keenly discovered this with a woman's intuition.

"I don't know."

Han Yu sighed.
