A few days later, in the afternoon.

Located in the north of the inner city, a banquet in a villa ballroom.

It is hard to imagine that in an inner city so scarce in land, there could be such a large ballroom, capable of accommodating at least a few hundred guests, but only a part of the villa of the Count of Jane von Breda Hicks.

On the far left, there is a band playing light music all the time, and the guests are dancing to the rhythm.

Nearby, there are several piano-like instruments, and guests can also perform a song to cheer up the banquet if they are in the mood.

On the far right, there are plenty of desserts, so that guests can chat without going hungry.

At this time, it was also a joyous time, and the sound of chatting mixed with dancing footsteps made it look like a real banquet.

But almost half of them knew what they were really up to.

In a corner of the ballroom, Xavier held a glass of champagne in his right hand and touched the lady in front of him.

Taking advantage of this moment, the two pretended to chat, but their eyes were not on each other, and they looked around, noticing if there were any suspicious characters who had blended into the banquet.

Like them, at least half of the banquet of hundreds of people was made up of soldiers who pretended to be guests, and the purpose was very obvious, to find the assassin's traces and capture them!

As for Earl Hicks at this time, he was obviously a little worried, although he was surrounded by special forces members, but he heard that William, the deputy commander of the Third Legion, was assassinated in this state, so why wasn't he next?

Seeing his appearance, the special forces member next to him, who pretended to be his female companion, whispered, "Earl, you are acting too obviously, if I were an assassin, I would definitely know that this is an ambush when I see you like this." ”

"Really, what should I do?" said Earl Hicks.

"Just follow the way you usually behave at banquets, Earl. The female team member responded, and then saw the Count holding her hand, and suddenly became restless.

"Well, that's how I usually behave. The Count said with a grin, and it was completely unthinkable that he had looked frightened until a few seconds ago.

The female team member suddenly had goosebumps on her body, and she wanted to bounce the fat pig's hand on her waist, but she knew that this might be exposed, so she had to endure it.

And the earl next to him, seeing that the female team members did not resist at all, also became more and more anxious, he knew that in order not to reveal the identity of the female team members, they would definitely not make any moves at this time, so that he could do whatever he wanted at this time.

Even, if he didn't have some sanity, knowing that there might be assassins nearby at any time, he would probably just take the girl next to him into the bedroom and do something indescribable.

In the distance, many members of the special forces who saw this scene showed angry expressions, she was the most beautiful girl in their troops, but she was actually touched by this fat pig so indiscriminately at this time!

If they hadn't had the task at hand, they would probably have chosen to draw their swords and hack him to death!

They even hoped that the assassin would succeed in assassinating him here, and then they would catch him again, and everything would be perfect!

Of course, if you think about it this way, no matter how angry or panicked the special forces members are, they will not lose their professionalism, and at this time, they are also carefully observing their surroundings, and they themselves are doing what the guests would do, but they are just single-minded.

In such an atmosphere, Xavier was suddenly invited by a lady to go for a dance, and he probably didn't expect to encounter such a thing, so he had to put away his eyes and smile at the woman in his twenties in front of him

"No problem. ”

"Thank you. The girl in front of him dragged him to the middle of the ballroom, and danced with him to the rhythm next to him.

One beat at a time, the dance steps between the two perfectly fit the rhythm of the music, not because the two have a tacit understanding, but because Xavier's mental power allows him to adjust all the time, even if the girl in front of him is full of mistakes, he can also take the right dance steps and continue the dance.

This made the girl feel quite happy, all along, her experience of dancing with others was not pleasant, but she didn't expect that today, she could dance such a dance, and even gave her inexplicable confidence, without thinking that this was actually the credit of the man in front of her.

Could it be that I have met true love? She suddenly thought about it, and carefully looked at the appearance of the man in front of her.

Well, it's so good-looking, but--

Why isn't his eye on me?

Sensing her puzzled gaze, Xavier withdrew his gaze from the surroundings and smiled, "I just thought of something. ”

"It's fine. Xavier was right for the girl at this point, "Let's keep jumping." ”

"Okay. Xavier looked to the side slightly, but found that Earl Hicks, who was still looking at him just now, no longer knew where he had disappeared.

Well. Isn't this a good way to tell him not to run around? But if there are other special forces members watching, there should be no problem, right?

Xavier's thoughts turned for a moment, and then he felt uneasy, and smiled embarrassedly at the girl in front of him, "I'll go to the bathroom." ”

Then, he didn't have any nostalgia, and left directly in the girl's gaze.

"Huh?" the girl looking at the black-haired man's back looked at her eyes in complete disbelief.

~~~~~~

Leaving the ballroom, Earl Hicks went to the garden, and now he found that he really liked the special forces member next to him, who hated him on the lips but had to bear his rude behavior.

As for this liking, whether it is that kind of liking, it depends on himself.

In the garden, there are also some guests, most of whom do not like the noisy environment of the ballroom, so they come here to get to know each other in a natural environment.

This is one of the great purposes of the banquet, for unmarried young men and women to get to know each other, to invite others to dance if they have a liking for him/her, and if they agree, it means that at least they do not hate themselves and can continue to develop.

However, it is clear that Xavier is not aware of these unspoken rules, and Caroline does, but she will not tell Xavier this, which is why it led to the previous scene.

Like the ballroom, there are a lot of hidden special forces in the garden, but their hidden methods are more interesting.
