When he was pushed into the banquet hall on the second floor by the maids, he looked like a varu's kind of waiter, who could enter and exit high society as a foil, rather than a poor mage who didn't even have the qualifications to get close to women in fancy clothes and wandered the streets.

His job today is to support the banquet.

He is under the direction of the chef and assists in the serving. In the process of helping to deliver all kinds of food to the self-service area and withdraw the food that had been sitting for too long, he found that most of the food had gone back to the kitchen without being touched!

He held a plate of cooled grilled fish in both hands, he had never seen such a large fish in his life, with a golden and crispy roasted skin, and looked at the chef with the most sincere eyes he could and asked, "Can I eat this?"

The chef clearly sensed that the look in Seeker's eyes eager for food was a powerful compliment for a man who made a career out of cooking. He pointed to the young chefs who were taking turns eating leftovers in the lounge area and said, "You can join over there." 」

So Xi Ke ate and drank a lot in between work, fried taro, fried shrimp, roast pig, ham slices, chicken soup...... After eating, all the kitchen staff showed sympathetic eyes to him. One of them tapped him on the shoulder and said, "There will be a banquet here for three days, and you won't go hungry anymore." 」

So Rick dismissed the idea of changing jobs.

He (when he wasn't eating) walked around the banquet hall as a spectator. The rich man's banquet was not what he had thought.

He watched the banquet on TV, and everyone laughed as if there was nothing to worry about in this world. The message of those celebrities to people is: at the banquet, you will be excited, the fatigue will be swept away, you will once again believe that human beings are good, you will get a lot of topics that interest you, and you will see performances that will make your eyes light up......

He heard melodious music, a splendid hall, beautiful curtains hanging on the walls, shiny cutlery, plenty of food, and a moderate temperature in the room. Everyone wears expensive and beautiful (but probably not very comfortable, like those heels that violate ergonomics).

They were indeed smiling, yes, but none of them were the heartfelt smiles that Rick had imagined. Some people laugh because they want to make themselves happy by showing a smiley face, some laugh because no one is allowed to cry on the occasion, and some laugh because they see someone else squeezing out a smile full of pain. Most of them seem to be here only because they have to, not because they're happy to be here.

They will laugh at a joke that is not funny, and then laugh again because someone else is laughing. Their smile was exaggerated, like a mask, as if it was a sin not to let others see him laughing.

Rick closes the house next to a group of women. One of the women in the group was a woman who had just gotten married and was showing off her married life with her friends.

He found that no matter what the woman said about her interactions with her husband, such as "she collects things for her husband", "what time does he come home on time every day", "his husband likes to try new things, she prepares different dishes for him every day", other women can interpret it as, "you will be his maid, and then he will treat you as a yellow-faced woman and go out to eat." "He won't tell you if he leaves work early, and then he can go out and steal food." "He must have liked to try new things even to women, and he ate different women every day. No matter what she said, the conclusion was that his husband would steal it. These women are so adamant that something will happen to these women if her husband doesn't steal it, so her husband has to steal it.

There was also a group of men talking about politics. One of the men said, "So, the policy should go in this direction. 」

The other man said, "No, I think it should—" and the man immediately changed his tune and said, "Actually, I think so too." As if agreeing with what the person in front of him said was something more important than reason, more than thinking. It's like if he disagrees with the person in front of him, the sky will fall or something, so he has to agree to the other party. It doesn't matter what the other person's opinion is, he must agree.

Aside from the fact that the food was very practical, the rest of the banquet hall, such as the guests, didn't look like there was a good haode living here. They seem to live in a kind of shijie that has nothing to do with life, where all that matters is the false joy that is stacked with smiling faces, not joy.

He pretended to be serious about his work, and he pretended to be in awe of these people, and did not dare to stop his eyes on them. This kind of superficial work is quite basic in the Order of the Night. There, everyone pretended not to dare to kill and killed their classmates one by one.

In fact, he heard everyone's conversations clearly, and he kept in mind the characteristics of each person's appearance, and he scrutinized the stakes between these people so that they could come in handy if necessary.

He heard someone say, "I always felt that something was wrong with this room," and he pricked up his ears to listen, but he heard them say, "...... The handrails of the brand are the most exquisite craftsmanship, and they actually use ...... This kind of inferior product makes me feel wrong, and my taste is really bad!"

Their so-called "sub-grade" unit price can allow Rick to rent a good apartment for half a year.

Nick began to look for his master's family. Since he is no longer leaving, then he has to find out the power structure here and figure out who he can't mess with.

He first found Miss Hana. The head of her minaret protrudes above the crowd and points to the ceiling, making it easy to find.

Hana wore a mage robe that was several times more exaggerated than usual. The circle above has changed from printing to hand-painted with washable paints, and the complexity has also multiplied several times. There is a large string of exaggerated but useless magic weapons hanging on his body, and the whole person is like a string of wind chimes that can move. Surrounded by a crowd of guests, she held a staff with a large gem studded at the tip, a metal vine wrapped around the handle, and a heavy, unusable looking staff, spraying colorful sparks from the runaway spell energy, creating small burnt holes in the guests' expensive clothes. And the guests kept shouting, "It's amazing!" and "It's beautiful!"

Then Rick followed the path of the guests and found the host's family. According to the price of the jewelry worn on the body, you can judge who is the master and who is the guest. Even if the guest has a larger diamond than the host's house, it is not allowed to wear it, otherwise it will be rude to the host.

He saw a white-haired man in the center of the crowd, who was supposed to be the owner of the house. The old man is not young, but looking at his straight backbone, he is more powerful than the young man, and his physical condition is quite good.

Nearby, Syk saw the twin sisters. It took a moment for Rick to tell who was who. In this kind of public occasion, both men wore dresses full of wrinkles and skirts that dragged the floor. The body is tightly wrapped, revealing only the round arms. Sister Lino's hair was coiled to the right of her head, and she tried to keep herself focused on listening to people's conversations, but it was clear that she was easily distracted. Her younger sister Gino's hair was coiled to the left of her head, and she tried her best to concentrate and obey, but she would show disdain in her eyes if she wasn't careful.

Rick also saw the mistress of the house. She was much younger than the old man, and Rick knew from other people's conversations that her name was Yulan. Like her two daughters, she has a goose-egg face, with more flesh on her cheeks than her daughters, and a more rounded face. The small mouth was smeared with red lipstick. Her shoulders were thicker to support her very full breasts. She has a long, graceful neck, which is even more elegant when she wears a simple necklace. She was a beauty, but there was obvious exhaustion on her face that detracted from her beauty.

The eyes of the guests were focused on the old man and the two young ladies, and no one spoke to her. Even when she is mentioned, it is in transit when chatting with others. Like, "Your wife is also very beautiful today. "Your mother's food is good. No one asked her for her opinion, no one came to her to discuss anything, no one even wanted her approval. She was just a thin shadow, a foil to the lord, and there was a vase with long legs in the banquet hall.

In addition to these people, he also noticed an old woman dressed in black, she was quietly staying in the corner, and whoever wanted to go up to flatter her would be driven away by her: "Let me be quiet, don't you see my mourning clothes?"

Xi Ke felt that this old woman had a kind of majesty that no one else had in the scene, and the gravity in her corner seemed to be stronger than anywhere else, making people feel that they must not be able to pretend to express their intimacy and harass the female guests there, as they did in other places. That old woman would never turn a blind eye.

When she went to her side to collect the cup, she tried her best to keep herself upright, and the old woman had squinted at him, but then turned her head to look at him, shook her head slowly, and whispered, "This country is sick. 」

Xi Ke didn't dare to say anything, raised his head and held the cup steadily, and walked straight away.

After that, Xi Ke continued to study the on-site personnel and saw a familiar figure. As soon as he saw the man, he immediately turned around and prepared to flee into the kitchen, he was going to find an excuse not to come out again!

The young man was about five years older than Syk, with bright blonde hair, shiny turquoise eyes under thick eyebrows, and an angular face. Nearly two meters tall, with a burly physique, standing very conspicuous in the crowd. He wears a short jacket and turtleneck shirt with double-breasted copper buttons, close-fitting trousers, which can be seen that the thigh muscles underneath are quite strong, and with long boots, he wears a stiff knight's uniform. The waist is hollowed out with a sword ring, and the scabbard is inlaid with precious stones, which is a ceremonial sword with more decorative significance than practical value. A five-centimeter silver shield-shaped knight's badge pinned to his chest is engraved with a white blooming rose etched into the center.

This man was a member of the Royal Knights, commonly known as the "Holy Shield", named Seren. Before he could hide under the shelter of the cooks, he discovered him. The knights were all martial artists, and they walked fast and stride, and at once they caught up with Xi Ke, and grabbed Xi Ke's thin wrist like a bird's foot with his iron hoop-like hands.

Rick craned his neck, hunched back and glared back at Seren, who looked back with an honest gaze.

After the destruction of the Dark Academy, Syk became a nationally wanted criminal and fled the wilderness, and Seren was one of the people who pursued him at the time. Now that Rick is a good citizen, Seren is no longer an enemy, but Rick has developed a habit of fleeing when he sees a knight.

"I've heard you work here. Seren smiled very broadly at Syke.

Rick felt the urge to raise his hand to make a shading motion, he really didn't want to see Seren's blinding smile. But now that he had been caught, he had no choice but to endure the feeling of wanting to run away and talk to Seren.

"Who told you?" said Rick.

"Schulonu's father. He is always concerned about your condition. 」

"Oh. 」

Schuilonu is a girl who was rescued by Syk during the destruction of the Dark Academy. She later returned to her family safely. Schuilonu's family background is very good, and he even has a little aristocratic blood. What Rick said to Seren, he didn't take it seriously. He felt that people with such a high social status would not care about how people at the bottom of the society like him lived.

"He's got you to Shuilono, too, Shuilonu—"

"Don't say it, I'm not interested. Syk interrupted Seren. He and Shuilonu are basically two shijie people.

"You have the mentality of a marginalized person in society. Seren's eyebrows lifted slightly. It's been more than two years since he was pardoned.

"Because I am. Rick said.

Serenne paused, looked at the waiter's suit on Syke, and said, "I heard that your job is as an assistant to a mage. 」

"Mage assistants are like this. Xi Ke replied in the official tone of the Director.

"It's okay, you can come and talk to me. 」

"I'm still working!"

"The rules of high society, chatting with guests is also a kind of work, come here. Then Serenne dragged Syk away.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Serenne took Syk to the balcony where no one was around.

It was snowing outside and it was dark. The balcony is equipped with advanced thermal insulation walls, so it is not as cold as the ground, but it is still very cold compared to the inside of the house.

He rubbed his arm together and said, "Why do you come outside so that what you want to say can't be heard?"

"It's a little bit. 」

Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows, drew his sacrificial knife and swung it in all directions, detecting that there was no eavesdropping spell and no one who was hidden, and then said, "Say it. 」

Seren's eyebrows were raised, and the wariness of Syk was not like a person in peace.

Serene said, "I don't know if you know that there's something wrong with this land. 」

This is a land that can turn Diku grass into a human head grass. "I know, I've seen it. 」

"Did you hear the inside scoop?"

"A lot. 」

"Did you know that the Lord of Light wants this land?"

"Huh?weishenme?" Isn't it because you want to breed a lot of variants?

"I don't know. The Staff of Light has been communicating with the family for a long time, but it is useless. Now they're asking for the Holy Shield for help, and that's why I'm here. 」

"I don't think you can help at all. Rick said bluntly.

Serian smiled wryly, "Yes, indeed. I'm annoyed. 」

The two units, the Staff of Light and the Holy Shield, have long been comrades-in-arms, and they always help each other's requests if they can, and if they can't help, they will play official, and if they want to escape, they will pretend to be sick if they want to escape. Serene was in the middle of a decision about whether to go back to the official scene or to pretend to be sick here.

Rick seems to be the third option.

Seren said to Syke very seriously, "Do you know that tax audit is a very good method?"

"Huh?" Nick wondered why he suddenly mentioned this.

Seren's expression was very serious: "As long as you can catch the handle of the person in charge, you can talk about anything. 」

Xi Ke's eyes widened suddenly, what was the knight who represented justice talking about!

"If the right means don't work, then we have to use other means that are not illegal. If you know anything inside, be sure to let me know. For example—" Serian pursed his lips, and it seemed difficult for him to say the next word, "incest." 」

The sisters? Cheek shook her head violently, "No, I don't know, I don't know anything. 」

"There's a rumor outside. Seren breathed a sigh of relief before continuing, "This kind of thing should be the responsibility of the police, but what can be used should be used. 」

"Are you so sure I'm going to help you?" spying on the boss's boss scandal, it must be a thankless job.

"I think you still have a sense of justice—"

Before Serian could finish speaking, the two heard a woman's screams in the venue.

Nick and Seren immediately turned and rushed into the venue.
