A strange world

Chapter 1033 Chapter 264. Giving Gifts

"She seems to be feeling a little unwell. It's not my fault."

Annan returned to Renaldo.

"Did you step on someone's toes?"

"No, probably not." Annan touched his cheek: "Maybe he doesn't like Mr. Olmei's type... Hehe."

Annan snickered because his image was based on Olmedo.

Renaldo didn't understand, he just felt that Annan was still a young man no matter how many honors he had.

"I'll protect you from some nobles who want to get close to you." Renaldo picked up a glass of red wine.

"On the list?"

"Um."

"Are you really going to spare no one?"

"It doesn't matter what I say."

Whether they survive depends on what they have done. If there was someone who never bullied civilians and distributed free food, Annan would take the initiative to apologize...but such a person would not appear on the list.

"A lot of people really didn't collude with the Free Blade, they didn't have the guts."

"I know, the worst case scenario is that I can apologize to them during the execution?"

Annan and Renaldo looked at each other and smiled.

Nobles have no value, their only value is themselves——

"Lei... His Excellency Renaldo, His Excellency Mr. Olmei..."

Stuttering greetings came from the side, and a male noble with two short beards came over.

Annan put down the wine glass he was holding in a pretense: "Who are you?"

"you do not know?"

The male noble showed some secret joy, his back straightened quietly, but his posture was very low: "I have admired you for a long time, Mr. Olmei, please enjoy this banquet."

As if afraid of being recognized by Annan, the male noble walked away with a relaxed pace.

"People on the list?"

Annan's inquiry was confirmed by Renaldo.

"It's decided, I'll have him operated on when I get back tonight."

"Isn't this a bit inhumane?"

"It's not ethical to break the rules with them."

Renaldo couldn't help but think that Annan's hatred for the nobles seemed to be more than just for making money... He didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing for them who had taken refuge in Liberty City.

The banquet continued, and Renaldo accompanied Annan in the "Pure Corner" of the banquet, and no one came to disturb him.

At a certain moment, the lively banquet suddenly fell silent for a moment.

Annan looked out the door and saw the chairman of parliament and Agarwal walking in.

Agarwal was wearing a fiery red mage robe and looked arrogant.

Annan only glanced at him, but the legendary mage's perception was so sharp that any hidden malice was caught, and his sight was like a violent fire dragon rushing toward Annan.

"He is Mr. Olmei. You should have heard of him..." the parliament leader introduced, nodding to Annan.

Renaldo raised his glass and Annan returned the toast.

"oh."

Agarwal responded coldly, treating Annan as an insignificant ant.

The pride of the legendary mage known as the Fire Dragon remains as strong as ever, unchanged at all - just as determined as when he escaped.

Annan thought that the rest of the banquet had nothing to do with him, but not long after, the chairman of the parliament came over.

Fortunately, he didn't bring Agarwal with him, otherwise Annan really wouldn't be able to control his emotions and not reveal his secret.

"Do you still like it?"

"I'm not used to it." Annan said straightforwardly, "There are not many people I want to know, but there are quite a few I want to capture."

The chairman of the parliament smiled: "Don't worry, young people, the future will eventually be yours."

Annan was surprised for a moment, and Renaldo responded: "That's too polite of you to say that."

The chairman of the parliament looked at him: "Reynado, can you let me and your nephew have a few words alone?"

Renaldo took a deep breath: "Of course... Mr. Olmei, don't make the Senator angry."

"Uncle, I am not a child anymore."

Annan and Renaldo acted out an uncle-nephew relationship. After Renaldo walked away, the Congressman looked at Annan's blond hair and said: "Olmedo should be almost as old as you, right?"

Annan was almost three years old when he blurted out: "Do you miss your relatives?"

"It's just that I feel a little lonely." The council leader chuckled.

Annan glanced at the guests standing in the hall. Are you lonely...

"Is there anything you want to tell me?"

The emotion was only temporary. The Speaker calmed down his emotions, as if the sadness just now was just an illusion: "I'm here to thank you."

"Thank me?"

"Clean the kingdom of sin."

The chairman showed goodwill, but it was Annan who kept his distance: "As a member of the Kingdom, this is what I should do."

"Strengthen your heart, your uncle and I are on your side." The congressman patted Annan on the shoulder.

"Thank you for your kindness."

"Do your best and I will consider handing that case over to you for investigation."

"That case?"

"You'll know."

The Speaker left, as if he had come to Annan just to say these words.

Or show it to the other guests at the banquet?

Annan glanced at the nobles who were watching the Speaker's every move and saw him patting his shoulders before.

Renaldo came back, and Annan pointed to his shoulder to signal him to stop talking nonsense.

"Nephew, someone asked me to give you a letter." Renaldo understood and gave the letter to Annan.

Annan took the letter and signed it Mrs. Hailey.

Who is this?

Annan recalled it for a long time before he remembered that this was the nobleman behind the Lime Gang.

After tearing open the envelope, Renaldo looked away when he saw the lip print on the letter.

[Dear Mr. Olme:

I think there are some misunderstandings between us. Why don't you come to my room at noon tonight so that I can clear up the misunderstanding? 】

"Will you go?"

"I suspect it's a trap." Annan tore Mrs. Haley's kindness into pieces.

Renato couldn't help thinking that Lord Annan had sacrificed too much for his career.

He tore it off...

"By the way, the chairman said he would give me 'that case' to investigate. Do you know what it is?"

"That case..." Renato shook his head.

The clues were too vague to be traced back.

After the banquet, Annan and Renato got on the carriage and returned to the official residence. As soon as he returned to the hall, Annan couldn't wait to conduct a full-scale inspection, but found nothing.

How could he find nothing?

Annan was worried: "I always feel that the chairman seems to know something..."

"This is impossible. The chairman will never stand on our side."

"Why?"

"Because..."

Renato was suddenly stunned and caught a certain light about "that case".

Annan did not interrupt his thinking. At this time, he saw his confidant running in and said that another noble had sent a car of gifts outside.

"Take me to see it."

Renato was still thinking, and Annan followed his confidant to the gate of the manor.

"Sir, the gift is in the car." The butler gestured.

Annan curiously approached the car and opened the door.

A shirtless strong man sitting in the car saw Annan, winked playfully, bit his lips, and his hands wandered from his chest to his legs.

Annan asked the butler beside him: "What do you mean?"

The butler said flatteringly: "Baron Reiner thinks you will like it..."

"I changed my mind, kill Reiner first."
