Chapter 235: Birthday Party (2-in-1, Subscription Requested!! )
A snow-white cat walked up to Ma Wei and meowed softly.
Friday and Xiaomei's five children have different coat colors, some are blue and white, and some have pure blue or pure white hair.
Xiaobai is a cat with more genetics of Xiaomei, and there is no variegation in the hair on her body, and it is as white as a snowflake in winter.
"It's the most qualified." Fat Orange said: "Bold and careful, with the demeanor of a mother, and most importantly, it is not at all like Friday, very brave." ”
Ma Wei bent down and stretched out his hand, Xiaobai immediately stuck to it, took the initiative to put his head into the palm of his hand, and made a slight snoring sound while rubbing it.
"Sure enough, it smells of tea."
Ma Wei nodded with satisfaction, just at this time Friday and Xiaomei arrived around the time, and learned that Ma Wei wanted Xiaobai to be an undercover agent and lurk beside the four pillars, Friday hurriedly shouted: "No!" It's too dangerous! How old is it? Not suitable for missions that are too dangerous! ”
"Just let it go." Xiaomei said.
"Xiaomei?"
Friday looked at his wife in disbelief: "Xiaobai is only one year old, how can you let it."
"This mission is not trivial, of course the four pillars are dangerous, but if Xiaobai doesn't go, it will be carried out by other cats." Xiaomei said in a firm tone: "Compared with other cats, I know Xiaobai better, and I know that it is capable of this task." ”
"Coco Xiaobai is our child."
"It is precisely because it is our child that the priest chooses it in the first place." Xiaomei glanced at Friday: "This is an opportunity to exercise it!" It is also an opportunity for it to make meritorious contributions! We have been blessed by the goddess, we are the lucky cats who are favored, and now the church has a need, and if we cats with preferential treatment are not the first to rush forward, do we want other cats to get on it? ”
"On Friday, the canned food and dried fish you usually eat, and the flattery and praise you hear are not obtained out of thin air. Rush faster than other cats! Only in this way can you be worthy of your usual pampered life! ”
was reprimanded by Xiaomei, Friday lowered his head in shame, he is the veteran of the cat legion, and his qualifications are only a little lower than the original fat orange, Xiao Hei, Scarface, Big Spot, Ah Hua and other cats, but in terms of status, as the pet of Archbishop Levin, the treatment he enjoys in the cat legion is second only to Fat Orange, and Xiao Hei is a level.
Despite this, it still didn't dare to talk back to Xiaomei, and whenever Xiaomei lost her temper, it would shrink aside and obediently be trained.
"Priest, let Xiaobai get close to Freya."
Xiaomei looked at Ma Wei: "I believe it can be." ”
With the joint sponsorship of Fat Orange and Xiaomei, Xiaobai should have no problem in terms of ability, but you can't just listen to other cats, you have to ask what this cat thinks.
"Xiaobai, are you willing to approach Freya for the sake of the church?" Ma Wei asked, and Xiaomei was translating on the side.
"Meow!" Xiaobai replied in the affirmative.
"You must know that Freya is the Great Demon of the Supreme Four Pillars, she is different from other humans, and I don't know what dangers it will be to approach her, this is a very dangerous task, even if you refuse, we will not blame you."
"Meow!" Xiaobai held his head high, and his eyes were still firm.
Seeing this, Ma Wei nodded: "Since that's the case. Emma. ”
Yunia stepped forward and stroked Xiaobai's head with her little hand, and the red light on the palm of her hand flashed, sending down the gift of the goddess.
"I'll pick you up tomorrow afternoon, and tonight, you'll have a good reunion with your parents."
The next day, in the afternoon, West London, Ealing District.
The Duke of Shevali is the century-old Duke of the Kingdom of Windsor, and there is a villa in the most prosperous neighborhood, which was rewarded by the previous king.
"This is where Freya lives?"
Levine looked at the manor-like villa with a huge courtyard and was surprised: "This is the richest place in London, is the Duke of Chevali's family so rich?" ”
Since the death of his father and husband one after another, the Shevali family, which is not prosperous, is the only seedling left in Freya, and the huge villa only has one owner and dozens of servants, and the pomp is much larger than that of many nobles, not so much a villa, but more like a palace, no less than the Clarence Palace where the eldest prince Charles lives.
In the history of the Kingdom of Windsor, the only nobleman with such an honor was the Shevali family, and there was no second one in the whole of London.
Towards evening, the villa hidden in the courtyard was magnificent, and the light was different from that of other houses, even brighter than the gas lamps installed in the second prince's villa, like the sun.
"Strange, why are Freya's lights so bright?" Daniel noticed the anomaly for the first time, he was still at Eton College in the morning, and was called back by Mavi in the afternoon, firstly to give him a letter from William V, and secondly, to take him to a birthday party.
The invitation sent by Freya clearly stated the names of the three Manstein brothers, including Yunia.
Ma Wei, who was holding Xiaobai, also noticed the strangeness of the villa, and had a slight guess in his heart, so he took Levin and a few people to the gate of the villa and saw Freya.
Tonight, Freya wore light makeup, and her already fair skin was even fairer against the background of the red dress, and when she saw Ma Wei, she smiled and said, "Nicholas, you came really early." ”
"It's your birthday, so it's going to be early. This is my gift to you. ”
Ma Wei handed over the white cat in his arms, and for the sake of beauty, he also specially tied a bow for Xiaobai to make it look more like a gift.
"A cat?"
Freya was stunned for a moment, she often received gifts, jewelry and diamonds, occasionally a horse, and pet dogs, but not cats.
"Isn't it too lonely to live alone in such a big villa?" Ma Wei smiled: "I hope this cat can accompany you and relieve your sorrows." ”
"Male and female?"
"Male cats."
"Great, I don't like female cats." Freya took Xiaobai, Xiaobai curled up in her arms very obediently, and let her caress her: "Thank you, Nicholas, I like this gift very much." ”
"If you like it."
"Lady Freya, I'd like to ask."
Daniel asked impatiently, "Why are the lights in your house so bright?" ”
"Oh, I invested in a private lab and they're working on something called an electric light." "This is their prototype, a carbon filament bulb, but unfortunately the technology is not perfect enough to light it for a few hours, so for tonight, I specially asked them to install this lighting installation in their home," Freya said. ”
In fact, bioelectricity appeared as early as 70 years ago, and voltaic batteries appeared 60 years ago, and the first generator and electromagnetic induction phenomenon were also proposed 30 years ago.
What really surprised Mavi was Freya, who was the first nobleman in London to discover the importance of electric light and invest in it.
It is never a good sign for demons to invest in human technology, and since the time of the Romanov Kingdom, Mavi has found that these demons seem to be learning, imitating, and even studying humans consciously or unconsciously, which is terrifying.
Daniel and Mavi had different points of concern, and after listening to Freya's answer, he looked at the light bulb in front of the door thoughtfully, and Levine noticed his anomaly and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing in a daze?" ”
"I'm thinking about the usefulness of electricity." Daniel said: "The kingdom of Frederick has a blank slate in the study of electricity, and the kingdom of Windsor has studied to the point of relying on electricity, and we are already lagging behind, and I will remind my father in my letter to pay attention to the study of electricity." ”
"Well, it's time to keep an eye on it." Levin yawned and said casually: "Maybe electricity is a greater invention than the steam engine, it's always right to pay attention, anyway, tonight is someone's birthday party, can you not keep thinking about Frederick's kingdom?" ”
"Big brother doesn't seem to have considered the possibility of electricity."
Daniel ignored Levine, but looked at Mavi, who was chatting and laughing with Freya: "Don't you think it's strange? The eldest brother's sense of smell has always been very sensitive, but this time he is so sluggish, can't he be stunned by a woman? ”
"What are you two muttering?"
When a new group of guests arrived, Freya went to greet them, and the empty Mavi turned his head and glared at the two who were whispering: "It's too rude not to even say hello." ”
"Big brother, look at this light bulb, isn't it amazing?" Daniel said: "I think the Romanov kingdom should also speed up similar research, otherwise it will fall behind!" ”
"Light bulbs, nothing unusual."
Ma Wei said disapprenously: "I know you are kind to remind you, but the Romanov Kingdom currently has no spare strength, and there are no relevant experts to study the development of electricity, only the level of education has improved, the level of scientific research can be rapidly improved, without the support of education, you can only send students to study in other countries, and other kingdoms are at odds with the Romanov Kingdom, and international students are not allowed, so. You know what I mean. ”
"That's just as well."
Daniel thought about it and found that the situation of the Romanov Kingdom was indeed embarrassing, just after the revolution, it was jointly suppressed by other countries, and it was really difficult to develop, so it could only be done step by step.
"Nicholas! Haha, you're here! ”
A hearty laugh came from behind him, and the second prince got out of the carriage with his wife Elizabeth, greeted Freya, and walked towards the gate.
"Your Highness, you're here early."
"Aren't you the same?" The second prince looked around and asked in a low voice, "I heard Stuart say that you forgot to prepare a gift for Freya?" ”
"It's settled."
"What gift did you give? Potions? ”
"No, a cat."
"You gave the white cat in Freya's arms?"
"That's right."
The second prince let out an 'oh', not knowing what to say: "This is really. Exceptional"
"Your Highness, if you like it, I can also give you one."
"How many cats do you have? Say send it? ”
"It's all over the roadside, just grab one."
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and the second prince couldn't have imagined that Ma Wei had searched to such a point, just send a cat, the key is a wild cat on the side of the road
It's not a penny!
"Forget it, I'm not interested in having cats." The second prince, who felt a toothache, said, "Let's go, go to the banquet hall, Charles and they will come in a while." ”
"Freya also invited the Great Prince?"
In addition to Charles, she also invited Andrew! The king will also come, in short, the upper class of London, everyone with a head and a face has been invited. ”
The Shevali family has always had a wide range of connections, and Freya does not participate in the struggle for the throne, she just occasionally helps the second prince a little bit in the face of the relationship, she is very close to the royal family, and she will not support anyone with iron heart, not to mention that anyone with a discerning eye knows that she is running for Ma Wei.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, the guests arrived at the villa one after another, and Freya was always outside to greet her, and the eldest prince, the third prince and even the church sent a bishop to convey the blessing, which was enough to give Freya face.
In the banquet hall, the guests exchanged enthusiastically, and they were vaguely divided into three camps, led by the three princes, until the arrival of the king and the prime minister, the deadlock was broken.
As soon as Rhodes IV and Prime Minister Winston entered, the banquet hall fell silent, and immediately afterwards many nobles gathered around the king, talking and laughing.
In the crowd, Mavi saw Professor James Moorea, a young woman holding his arm, with a straight waist and a delicate appearance, although not as charming as Freya, but with a hint of military temperament between her eyebrows.
"She's Natalia, James Morea's adopted daughter." "I didn't expect them to come," Levin said.
Ma Wei felt that Natalia was a little familiar, déjà vu, recalled for a long time, and suddenly found that he had seen Natalia, when he first came to London, in order to rent a grocery store on Flower Street, he used a trick to lure the witcher to make a move, and there was a woman with a ponytail at that time, it was Natalia!
Recalling the posture of the other party when he captured the infected, Mavi found that Natalia was different from ordinary women, and her personality was probably stronger than Tiffany's, so it was no wonder that Levine felt a little tricky.
James Morea stood by the window with a glass of red wine, unlike other nobles who flattered the king in front of him, with one hand in his pocket, his gray hair combed back, like a kind old gentleman, while tasting red wine, his eyes slowly swept the hall, and suddenly, Natalia said something in his ear.
James Moorea looked out the window, and Mavi looked out the window, and a carriage slowly stopped at the door of the villa, and then the door opened, and a black cane appeared, followed by a reddish pipe
Dilloc Holmes!
Seeing Sherlock Holmes, James Morea drank all the red wine in his glass, handed the empty glass to Natalia, and walked to the door alone, apparently intending to meet Holmes.
"There's a good show to watch now," Marvey muttered.
