Chapter 12: The Dinner Party 1

A week later.

Since that fight, these days Gal has been on the lookout for those men's follow-up moves.

It's been so long, and now that they've learned of the disappearance of Blide and Morad, and their target Gehr is still alive and well, the other party must not give up.

Jingle Bell ......

The bell for the end of class woke Gehr from his distraction.

He sat in his seat, tilted his head slightly, and glanced at the classroom.

The classroom was a bit noisy, with students from different circles laughing or fighting, and some of them left the classroom to go outside.

In such a noisy environment, Gehr felt that this world was still a peaceful world.

Mickey ran away with Galle when the bell rang, and during this time, the circle between Gel and the two of them was completely disconnected, and Mickey also consciously avoided Gel, so that Gel originally wanted to ask Mickey specifically about the day of the equestrian accident, but the result could only be put on hold for the time being.

"Hey, Gehr, is your shoulder healed?" the visitor sat down on the desk next to Gehr.

The one who spoke was a boy with short blond hair, his name was Jokola, and he was a member of the archery club like Gehr, and he had met a few times when he was practicing archery, and the two became acquainted, and now they are friends who have a good relationship.

"Alright, almost. Gell smiled and nodded. This week, he asked for leave from the archery club on the grounds that he had dislocated his shoulder due to a fall.

"That's good, let's have a good competition today, see how many layers of strength you have left, in half a month, the internal qualifying competition in the club will start, will you go?"

After entering the archery club, Gehr's speed of progress and effort surprised a lot of people, and everyone was very optimistic about him, and they were all looking forward to his performance in the competition.

"Well, I'll participate. ”

"That's good, we rely on you to win glory in the third class of the second year, and none of the others in the class are competitive, and I can't always raise my head in the club. ”

Gehr was speechless. There are only two people in the class who participate in the archery club, is this self-deprecation?

Sure enough, in an instant, Jokola realized his speech problem, scratched his head with a dry smile and quickly changed the topic: "Are you free at night?"

"What's wrong?"

"I'm looking for your help. ”

"What's the matter?"

"I have a banquet at home today, but you know that this kind of banquet is very boring, so you can do me a favor and accompany me at that time. ”

"Why don't you find Vivien Leigh? "Vivien Leigh is a friend of Jokola, and when Jocora and Gehr got acquainted, they also pulled her over, and everyone who came and went back and forth was also acquainted, and now the three of them have formed a small circle.

"You think she can escape?"

Seeing Gegar looking at him with puzzled eyes, Jokola immediately explained, "To be honest, this kind of banquet is a group blind date, and you know how boring those guys are, I've been to them several times, it's so boring, but I can't help but not go, and Vivien Leigh is the same." ”

"What do you say? Who am I like?" a girl with red hair tied into a ponytail walked over, and it was Vivien Leigh that the two were talking about.

"Speaking of today's banquet. I asked Gehr to accompany me. Jokola pulled a chair for Vivien Leigh to sit down.

As soon as she talked about the banquet, Vivien Li's pretty face collapsed, and she said dejectedly: "I have five tasks today, don't think about resting during the banquet." ”

"What five?" asked Gell curiously.

"Five blind date goals. Jokola interjected and replied: "Every time my parents give a task goal, it must be completed, and if I don't complete it, I won't give pocket money for a year, I'm better, I guess it's three." ”

"Rest assured, you are relaxed today and have no mission objectives. Vivien Leigh pouted.

"Hey, what do you mean?" asked Jokora, turning his head.

"Prince Fajellino is here today, and you just have to greet him today. ”

"Fayellino, he's a prince, but he's just an illegitimate child. "Jokola was very disdainful of this prince.

"That's a prince, too, and he's one of the leaders of the Brotherhood of Steel, so even your parents have to be careful. ”

"Cut, aren't you the same?" Jokoko pulled back.

Brotherhood of Steel!

These days, Geer has been trying to find a way to investigate these few remaining clues, but due to the lack of a suitable way, he didn't expect to get the news here.

"Brotherhood of Steel, Prince Fayellino, what do they do?" asked Gehr, feigning curiosity.

"By the way, Gehr, you're not from the Central Province, so it's not clear. The Brotherhood of Steel is a union of the children of the great nobles and the royal family and some businessmen, and they like to get involved in any industry as long as they have money to make. According to my father, it seems that a large order for the army to change clothes this time has fallen into their hands, tsk, this time I really earned enough ......"

"Don't listen to Jokola's nonsense, he is talking about the situation about twenty years ago, but after so many years of development, the Brotherhood of Steel has long since become a behemoth, and everyone calls it the 'Third House'. Vivien Leigh explained.

The House of Parliament is understood and is the political center of Konatas, divided into the upper and lower chambers. The House of Lords became the House of Lords, whose members were mainly hereditary nobles, descendants of the royal family, and newly feuded nobles, and had the right to review and veto new bills, while the House of Commons, also known as the House of Commons, was mainly composed of the common elite and the bourgeoisie, and had the right to submit bills and supervise their implementation.

The House of Commons has always been an important political power of Konatas, and it is conceivable that the Brotherhood of Steel can be called the "Third House" alongside it.

"What about Prince Fayellino?" Gell nodded, signaling understanding, before continuing to ask.

"Fajellino, the illegitimate son of the current King Ammud II and a maid, had been raised outside the home, only acknowledging his identity two years ago, and soon joined the leadership of the Brotherhood of Steel as a representative of the royal family, and his luck was good. Jokola picked up a pen from the table and kept spinning it, his tone sour, obviously envious of Fayellino's "good fortune".

Poof!

Looking at Jokola's sour fox look, Vivien Leigh covered her mouth and laughed.

"Where is the banquet taking place?" was now Gell interested in the banquet.

By taking advantage of this opportunity to get up close and personal with the Brotherhood of Steel, you can make the situation clearer so that you can choose your future actions. As a black smear in front of him now, he can only choose to deal with it passively, which is very disadvantageous for Gehr.

And Gehr is not worried about the safety of today's group, since the other party wants to kill himself secretly, then this kind of banquet is not a suitable choice.

"It's at the Blue Dolphin Hotel, a ten-minute walk out of the academy. ”

"Okay, just call me when you leave. ”

"That's good, enough friends. Vivien Leigh, will you come with us?"

"I can't, I have to go over to my mother's tea party in the afternoon, and I'll go straight over when it's over. Vivien Leigh shook her head and rejected Jokola's offer.

"I said, you don't like to go to this kind of banquet, so if you two are together, you will have an excuse not to go. Anyway, you are very familiar with it, which just saves the run-in time. Geer suggested with a smile. Jocora and Vivien Leigh have known each other since childhood, and they have played together until they grow up, which can be regarded as childhood sweethearts.

"You said with him or her?" said the two of them had a funny expression.

Jokola laughed almost out of breath, and it took a while for him to recover and explain to Geer: "You haven't tried it, but we know each other so well that we get along like ...... How did you say that...... By the way, it's like you touch your right hand with your left hand, or a thicker and thicker ......"

"Die, you're thick and thick!!" Vivien Leigh said angrily.

It's not surprising that not all men and women who have grown up together and have a good relationship can become a couple, and these two belong to the kind of people who are friends or lovers.

Gehr smiled at the performance of the two men without saying a word.

......

In the evening, Ger followed Jokola to the Blue Dolphin Hotel.

The hotel as a whole is cylindrical, with large and small lamps hanging on the wall, which stretches out a beautiful circle of light on the surface of the hotel, and looks like a dolphin jumping out of the water in the dark night.

Gehr noticed that the lights in the hotel were not the oil lamps that were commonly used in this world, but the new electric lights, which were only available to a few people because the electrical base of this world was not yet widespread.

"That's it, it's about the same time, let's go straight up. Jokola summoned a waiter, led the two into the hotel, and headed upstairs.

The two were taken to the fourth floor and entered a splendid hall.

Pushing open the heavy gate, the soothing music flowed out like a river.

Both Jokola and Gehr were dressed in black dresses, which were inconspicuous in the crowd, and no one noticed them for a while.

"I'll eat something first, and then I won't have time to eat when the next one gets lively. Jokola led Gehr around the crowd to the table near the wall.

"You take your time and leave me alone. Jokora handed a plate to Gel and told him to act on his own.

Gehr quickly understood what he meant - Jokora stood directly at the meat barbecue table, picked up the fat and thick slices of meat and put them on the plate, then sat down and ate them in a big gulp, as if he was racing to kill himself in a race of time.

Gehr took a few dishes of interest and a glass of juice, then sat down next to Jokola and took a few bites. His target today is Prince Fayellino and has little interest in anything else.

"Hey, Jokola, you're here. ”

A boy with golden-eyed eyes walked over and greeted Jokora.

"Hey, Ash, you wait, let me take two more bites. Jokola had already wiped out most of the dishes on his plate and replied in a somewhat slurred voice.

"Don't delay, your father asked me to come to you, and I'm waiting for you over there. Ash came up and grabbed Jokola's arm.

"You go first, I'll do whatever I want. Gehr saw that Zokola was a little embarrassed, and immediately realized that it was because of him, so he opened his mouth kindly.

"Okay, you sit down first, and I'll come over when I call you. ”

As soon as Jokola finished speaking, he was pulled away by Ash, and the boy named Ash just glanced at Gehr at the beginning, and then thought that Gehr was air, and didn't pay attention to it at all.

This is the typical aristocrat, they all have a list in their hearts, and only those who are worthy of making friends will get their smiles, and as for the others, they don't even have the energy to look at them.

Gehr didn't care about Ash's performance, and ate his meal leisurely, waiting for Prince Fayelino to appear.

"Gehr, why are you here alone?"
