There is an unspeakable, inconsequential secret.

The refreshing champagne fluctuates in a crystal glass, and is held high beneath the intricate chandeliers. More warm than wine, it seems like the atmosphere in this room.

"Distinguished guests. Today is the birthday feast of my dear uncle, Lord Morton, and thank you all for coming, and let us raise a glass to welcome the beginning of this great gathering. Now, let my uncle say a few words to you. ”

"Thank you for coming......

Sunshadow was still standing in the corner, looking at the seemingly amiable old man in the center of the crowd who was talking complicated and false polite words, slightly distracted.

Obviously looking at this kind-faced person, but in his shadows, he unconsciously smelled a trace of familiar and strange aura, those black robes, those strange divine words, those who kept chasing and killing them, those shadowy existences that followed them. Ah, it's the breath of the guys of the Holy Court of Light. Sunshadow's Sleeve Blade unconsciously reveals a slight corner.

"Little Shadow?" Robert shouted in a low voice as he seemed to sense the killing intent of the Shadow for a moment.

"How long does this kind of banquet last?" Hikage immediately hid the killing intent in his eyes, "I think I'm starting to get bored." He said calmly.

"This is just the beginning. Robert smiled a little helplessly, "This kind of aristocratic banquet is generally very long, especially at the level of Lord Morton, maybe even longer. ”

"Is it just an endless stream of false conversations?" Sunshadow squinted at Lord Morton, who was still sighing. At this time, the speech had already extended to the beautiful yearning for the Holy Court and the Empire at the birthday banquet.

"There might be a ball, an improvisation, or a small theater. But the boss usually goes first. But I have to wait until the end, and I have to watch every drama for the boss. ”

"Tell me, where should I go?" asked Sunshadow, tilting her head slightly. The black bangs slipped slightly, obscuring the rare cruel banter in his eyes, a shadow of hatred that was slightly revealed. "Where should I start this show to make it interesting?. ”

"The little shadow of the Void and the Snake Committee, you won't. But Shadow has the most deceptive weapon. Well, let's start over there later. Robert said, pointing to a small circle of aristocratic girls.

"No kidding?" "Nikkage frowned, even if he didn't go toe-to-toe with Morton, he should be able to talk to the people involved, how could he face a group of naïve and ignorant girls.

"Nope. Robert seemed to be serious, but he couldn't hide the corners of his mouth, and pouted a very graphic thing, even a reasonable person like him couldn't help the surging gossip fire in his heart.

"Then it's better to teach me to be false and snake-like. ”

"You probably won't be able to learn. It's possible that you haven't started yet, Xiaoying, you're stabbed. With those aristocratic girls and young women, there is no need for words. You just need to stand quietly. Those who wish take the bait. But you have such a delicious bait, I think there should be a lot of fish. ”

As Robert pointed out, the shadow of the sun also fell on the delicate colorful skirts, the graceful white neck, and the delicate makeup at the corners of the eyes, which were beautiful and moving. They were laughing and talking.

She and Flora must have been like this at that time, and they had such times. Dressed in colorful dresses, in the room, in the garden, walking and playing. Flora said, Ah Ying, they can be good friends if they dress like this, it is better to wear men's clothes for the first time, and they will fall in love with her. Flora said, "Ah Ying, the dress is a gift from God, and she likes to give a lot of gifts. It's a pity they didn't. Ha ha......

On the day Flora vanished, it was all in vain, a secret that could no longer be spoken. Those dresses, those slapsticks and frolicks have become dusty secrets.

But I don't know why, at this moment the sun shadow remembered, Peng Xiu pressed his head, and the gentle words were still in his ears.

"I swear by my life that I will wait for you until the avenue is cleared, until one day you can walk freely in this world without this secret. ”

I'm the dividing line of the sunkage who doesn't want to go over and talk to you......

How did the stuffy gourd youth, who couldn't speak ten words a day, start in a group of twittering girls. Ask for the picture.

Robert, as the secretary of the powerful prince of the empire, and the military advisor of the second largest mercenary regiment in the empire, has all kinds of important information up and down the empire, and has indelible gossip genes in his bones. He changed his usual focus on the important interpersonal work of the Empire, and devoted himself to observing the seemingly unconstructive thing that Sunshadow had sent to talk to.

In fact, it is definitely more powerful or practical to let him directly collide with the powerful people who occupy key positions than with the girls who let Sun Ying come into contact with your circle. But perhaps out of love for the young man, or more often because he found it more interesting, it was more interesting than perhaps the collision with the smell of gunpowder as the embarrassment of seeing the grim young man. Besides, young people are so easy to deceive. This trip was as heroic as an execution ground, but there was no hesitation. It's funny.

But I never expected it. What's going on with this harmonious sense of inclusion!

This beautiful young man just walked over silently, and in a word, after all, there is indeed capital like this, but this is not an embarrassing sense of harmony and inclusion. The young man's face was cold, and the gentle quiet and calm temperament seemed to be playing a common card, and it was not abrupt to be included in the circle of aristocratic girls, and it was even faintly formed into a circle.

Robert looked at this picture and found it really interesting. For a while, I wanted to pull all the people in the group to watch. At this time, there were also strong onlookers Melson, who was being questioned by his father, and played Tai Chi with his father's questioning perfunctorily.

The girls of the surrounding aristocratic circles are chattering in the ears of the sun shadow. The guidance of Robert, the shadow of the sun, came to this small circle, and it was the unmarried girls among the nobles. It is the lively age, and in this rare banquet, he is also full of curiosity about the beautiful young man who walks to his side and has a mysterious identity.

Sunshadow was a little overwhelmed by their chatter, but her usually cold face did relax. Flora and they met at this age, and the two used to chatter and be very lively. In those difficult years, relying on nonsense that sounded useless, I had a good time in my memories. In the face of some obvious beauty in front of you, with a down-looking mentality, it is difficult not to let go of your defenses.

While they were discussing enthusiastically, it suddenly came to an abrupt end without warning. They all looked at the visitor outside the side door, and they all lost their words.

The people outside the door are very different from the girls in front of them, and they are unique. Dressed in a long black lace dress, with long black hair, reflecting the fair to sickly skin, the slender body has a gloomy temperament, exuding indifference from the inside out, slowly coming in the direction of the girls.

Sun Ying was a little stunned for a moment. This slow-moving girl should be two extremes of existence with the sunny Flora, but for some reason, the sun shadow seems to see Flora's shadow from her body.

"Who do you see in me?" The girl's voice and temperament remained highly consistent, clear and penetrating. She had already moved forward to the front of the sunshadow, and the other girls who were still around at that time silently avoided it. She tilted her head slightly, and asked with a cold and stubborn expression.

"How do you know I'm not looking at you? Sunshadow said. "You appeared out of nowhere, and I should have only seen you. ”

"Don't bluff me. The look in my eyes is all too familiar to me. They all looked at me like that. The girl said this, her expression flashed a little gloomy, and then disappeared again.

"Who are you? Your blood smells so good. The girl's eyes were bright, but Jing Fu Chengquan had a somewhat gloomy face, and she got a little closer, as if she smelled blood. "You've just arrived in the imperial capital. If you had been in the Imperial Capital before, I would have met you. Such fragrant blood, I will not forget. ”

"Do you remember me by the smell of blood, or do you want to be a sign of prey?" the girl in front of her, there was an illusion that she would pounce at any moment, the sharp nerves of the Sun Shadow, and the dangerous aura of a beast was felt in her, if it were not for the bright lights of the banquet hall, she would have met in the dark forest. He replied.

"That's up to you. Some are prey by nature, and some are hunters by nature. The girl continued, regaining some popularity, and such interpersonal perceptions are the instinct of human classification, although they are not appropriate for her age.

"Am I that in your eyes?" asked Sunshadow with some interest.

The girl looked at it seriously, and actually brought her face a little closer, almost clinging to each other, as if she could hear the snort on the neck caressing, and the girl's breath had been leisurely floating around the sun shadow.

"Yours is special. It seems to be a prey, and it seems to be a hunter. It's fragrant, but there's a hint of smell wafting there, something is hiding the smell of you. But I'm so good, I can smell it. You're definitely ......."

"Althea!"

The girl's playful words had not yet spoken. A shout interrupted the conversation between the two. A tall man had already scurried to the two of them. It was a young man who had just raised his glass in the crowd and said a toast.

"Who are you?" the man asked quickly, with a condescending and disdainful expression, and stretched out his hand very rudely to push towards the Sunshadow, separating the two from what seemed to be too close.

Sunshadow's body leaned back slightly, not wanting the man who appeared inexplicably to touch him. But before the man's hand could be fully pushed, he was stopped by the other hand. With a snap, it was knocked down directly.

"What are you doing?" it was Althea who hit the person, her eyes widened angrily, "My business, can you take care of it?" There was a bitter coldness in her voice, which was completely different from the crispness just now with a bit of ridicule and intimacy.

In this banquet hall, where the atmosphere seems to be very harmonious, the sudden quarrel is particularly abrupt, attracting the attention of others for a while. The man looked very embarrassed for a while, as if he didn't expect Althea's maintenance, his face became very ugly, and he was angry, but he still suppressed it because of the side of others.

"Althea is a beautiful name, but it also has a very rare black color. Ignoring the man's anger, Sunkage found the girl in front of her domineering and funny, like a group of black flowers that didn't fit in with the large red, white, and purple hollyhock Althea flowers.

"Have you ever seen a black one?" When Althea heard this, she immediately asked.

Her name was a beautiful flower, and she had not heard similar compliments in her daily life, but the black one, which she had only known in a miscellaneous book, had never seen it. She used to be curious. But she is trapped in this square inch of the imperial capital, and no one will look for a strange black flower and plant for her, and of course, no one will think that this is a compliment to praise her for being a black hollyhock. The person in front of her may not be a compliment at all, but she really thinks that the black one matches her.

"Yes. Yes. Sunshadow nodded. In the flower garden of Yulia, there are all kinds of rare flowers and plants, which are layered and dotted. At that time, I also made an appointment to go all over the world and find all the rare flowers and plants in the world. But this is in vain.

"Where can I see that?" Althea asked.

"Not at the moment. Sunshadow shook her head, and responded actually. The flower garden is still there, but it should have been left untended for a long time. I don't know if those are still alive, and they are thousands of miles away from this imperial capital.

"What is it like?" Althea asked at this time, with the curiosity and innocence of a girl, and asked with great interest.

"Shut up!"

Before the Sun Shadow could reply, the man on the other side scolded, and pounced on the two of them again, with a fierce intent, and went straight to the face of the Sun Shadow, which was no longer meant to be blocked, but to hurt his life.

For Sunkage, such an attack may seem ferocious but does not pose any real threat. In a flash, by the way, Althea was pulled away.

"Ahem" A magnetic cough interrupted the man's second action again. "Is this what you're playing?" Peng Xiu's voice sounded on the side.

"Thor, what's going on?" another slightly older voice sounded, it was Duke Morton. It is a charitable face, with a bit of coldness in his eyes.

Thor stopped abruptly and looked back. Unconsciously, several heavyweights in the banquet walked to this corner and stood scattered. Penxiu had already come closer, Duke Morton, and his uncle was already behind him. Suddenly, the anger suddenly dissipated, and there was a cold sweat behind his back.

"This little friend, do you know this quirky child of my family?" Duke Morton walked forward slowly, looked up and down at the beautiful young man in front of him who he had never seen, his eyes stayed on the badge on his chest for a moment, and then looked at Peng Xiu, who was quite defending, and said with a smile and kindness. "It's very rare to be able to talk about it. No wonder my stupid nephew is so nervous. Didn't scare you, did you?"

"Thor, you should be glad that your head is still above your neck. Our little lion is not very good-tempered. Peng Xiu's hand was turning the flowing hairstyle of the chaotic sun shadow when he spoke, and the chaotic rise seemed to confirm his nickname of the little lion. "I talked to him in a whisper. ”

"Let's go down. Saul. Duke Morton said with a bit of disappointment in his tone.

Thor looked at the Sun Shadow who was now in the center of the crowd, it was rare for him to be ignored, and then he just screamed angrily, and before his hands could reach anyone, he was reprimanded by the two big men and driven out of the field, which was a humiliation he had never suffered before. He will make this man pay. He said no more and turned away.

"Please don't mind. Thor was just too attached to Althea. Morton spoke to Sunshadow, but his eyes forgot to Peng Xiu. He could see that this prince who leaned towards the government and the opposition loved the beautiful young man in front of him, and since the beautiful young man stepped into the banquet hall, Peng Xiu's eyes looked at the young man from time to time, and the meaning of concern was overflowing. With a single scolding, Thor pushed him through the crowd and went straight for him. Morton didn't want to have a bad relationship with the two people in front of him because of a sudden little situation. He didn't ask why, and directly scolded Thor to retreat.

"We'll meet again. Good bye. Althea whispered in Sunshadow's ear, the veil of her skirt swept across Sunshadow's hanging hand, and she turned away in style. Ignoring the pleasantries that might have begun, and ignoring the Duke Morton's slightly changing expression.

I can't ask for it, but I can't do it. This girl is a thorn in the heart of the prince in front of her. Interesting indeed.
