Chapter 61: Shadow

At night, Piazza Caricamento, the opening ceremony of the Expo has just begun. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although the mayor of Genoa, Mello, was giving a speech, the people in the audience were already talking to each other, which may be a bit rude, but in the final analysis, for many people sitting in the audience, the only meaning of this expo is to give them a broad platform for communication, so it is the right thing to talk to some necessary people, not to listen to boring speeches.

However, there are differences in the form of conversation, such as who takes the initiative and who asks for others, like Alberto Agnelli, a promising young man who was born into a famous family and has great hopes of inheriting the Agnelli family, belongs to the role that many people want to talk to him about, such as now.

“...... The world needs bigger ships, Mr. Agnelli. "This is an ambitious shipyard manager, and Alberto knows him, because this man, along with a number of university professors, has published an analysis of ship types and the probability of a wreck in the Atlantic, and the conclusion is that he needs a larger ship, as he now preaches with Alberto, so he now comes to Alberto in the hope of getting an investment.

Alberto admired his courage and was very interested in the ideas he expressed, of course, mainly in the interests behind them, and the Fiat Group was already very successful in the automotive industry, and the most he could do after inheriting it was to sustain this success, if he could enter the marine industry in one fell swoop...... It's a very tempting cake, but he can't show it too obviously, that would make him a passive party.

"It's an interesting topic, but it doesn't seem like a good place to talk about. Alberto pulled out a business card of his own and handed it to the promising emerging entrepreneur, "Next Monday, I just have time to ......."

There was a burst of laughter that wasn't very loud, but it was noticeable, for it sounded ...... Child, to be precise, it sounded like a little girl's voice, not that Alberto had a special preference in this direction, although he knew some people who did, but he remembered that there should be no one around the seat with minor family members in the room.

When he had finished his brief conversation with the promising shipyard master, and when he looked back, he saw the source of the laughter he had just heard, and she was talking to his cousin Eduardo Agnelli, and it should be said that he had listened to Eduardo quietly because of the loud and small noises on and off the stage, which he did not hear clearly, but which nevertheless made Alberto frown.

The presence of this cousin was regarded as a disgrace by his uncle, because he had failed the high expectations of the family, and as he grew older, he became more and more withdrawn and depressed, and spent his days hiding in his little house in the mountains and indulging in religion and philosophy, but to the surprise of all, he offered to attend such an occasion.

Originally, Alberto thought that the cousin had finally made a little change and was willing to come out and talk to the public, but it was ...... This cousin seems to have intensified, and actually hooked up with the little girl in public, a beautiful silver-haired little girl - the cold hair exploded, and at the moment of meeting her eyes, Alberto had an inexplicable palpitation, obviously from the temperature to the atmosphere of the extremely hot occasion, but the chill hit the spine straight out!

"Eduardo. Alberto made his tone as natural as possible, trying to pull his cousin out of the dangerous behavior: "Can you introduce this lovely young lady, I don't know such a lovely young lady!"

Alberto had never seen his cousin look so vicious, he didn't grit his teeth, he didn't shout and curse, he didn't have red eyes, but he squeezed out the ferocity that he couldn't eat flesh and blood, and then regained his composure under her caresse.

"Gretel, it's a pleasure to meet you, sir. She stroked Eduardo's head, smiling as if she were smoothing out her own dog's hair, weird and humiliating!

Seeing that his cousin was really as submissive and obedient as a dog, a heavy sense of humiliation came up in the heart of young Alberto, who had never been humiliated by anyone, especially in this way, not only to humiliate him, but also to humiliate the Agnelli family, but in this public place he could not come out: "Alberto Agnelli, it is a pleasure to meet you, miss, do you mind if I ask where your parents are? ”

"Of course, we're coming with my father......" she said halfway before she stopped talking abruptly, her eyes skipped over Alberto and looked farther away, and then she curtsied very politely, "Sorry, sir, I have to leave." Good night, Mr. Agnelli~"

Seeing the girl trotting away briskly, Alberto immediately turned to his cousin: "Who is she? How did you know each other?"

The almost interrogative questioning was very rude and insulting, but Alberto didn't care about his cousin's face at the moment: it wasn't an ordinary girl! He believed in his feelings, not even when he was pointed at a gun by the mafia.

And today, it seems that his cousin is going to carry out the abnormality to the end, not only ignoring his words directly, but also in a gesture of confidence, no, contempt for everyone, including Alberto.

......

......

"Why did it take so long, sister?"

In the corner, Hanser carried two bags, one large and one small, which made him look like a child laborer who was exploited by black-hearted capitalists in the nineteenth century, but looking at him, the bag was as light as nothing.

Taking the big long backpack in his hand, Gretel chuckled and kissed Hanser, and the two silver hairs approached each other in a small corner, "Just a little bit of play with the 'dog', brother, the method taught by Dad is really good." ”

"That's not good, sister, Dad said to be on time. Hanser shook his retro bosom, and the minute hand on it was already two digits above their predetermined scale.

The two very similar faces distanced themselves, and Gretel tapped the long bag around his waist, "So we're going to hurry, brother." ”

......

"I always thought that the squirrel Guiyu really used a squirrel, and it made me wonder how your distant Chinese relatives could get their mouths......" Professor Ma Duo and Chu Man sat in the rear of the room, where they could speak without deliberately lowering their voices.

Chu Man nodded approvingly, and he felt the same way about the inconsistency between the name and the ingredients: "Before tasting it myself, I always thought that there was fish in the fish-flavored shredded pork, and there was a lion's head in the braised lion's head, huh...... There are also husband and wife lung slices, which sound like ogre's menu. ”

"But that's good, because they still taste good in the end. When Professor Ma Duo said this, he unconsciously showed a disgusting expression, "It's not like the British Stargazing School, the name is quite good, but it tastes ...... I really thought I saw the stars, a darkness without stars. ”

Hula!

The audience suddenly burst into warm applause, celebrating the end of the last speech, but, only a few people noticed, the host's frowning expression, there should be cold fireworks here-

"Smack......

The crisp sound of being late, only those who were close to them could hear the soft crisp sound, but the originally scheduled cold flame did not appear, and the thick smoke came out!

"Ahem, ahem......" The whole venue suddenly fell into the sound of coughing ensemble, whether it was the host on the stage or the audience under the stage, they all coughed violently in the smoke that quickly dispersed.

Call!

Darkness then fell, all the lights went out, and the people who were groping for evacuation suddenly entered a state of blindness, and there were many who fell directly after a mistake, and then formed a domino effect, and the cries also joined the noisy event.

"Good evening, 'Gentlemen and Ladies'. The PA system, which had been silent, suddenly started again, and the sarcasm of the phrase was so obvious that even a child could hear, "I want to play a game." ”

'Eduardo!' the expensive gown was taken off as a filter mask and covered his face, and Alberto reached for his neighbor in the dark, and after touching the void, he was sure that the person who spoke was really his cousin, the cousin whose temperament had suddenly changed.

"Woo Woo!" Periphery, dense gunfire.
