Locke's pupils shrank and he almost dropped his mask on the ground.

But he still tried his best to control his expression and movements, shook his head with a smile,

"She is not one ten thousandth as good as you. You are truly a beautiful lady."

"You are also very handsome. Maybe we can go to the garden and enjoy the moonlight."

Mrs. Suman invited.

Locke glanced at him from the corner of his eye and found that Sigurd had gone somewhere long ago. Now he was the only one left, and he would not take risks.

"I'm sorry, I actually already have a sweetheart, so I can only live up to my lady's kindness."

Locke declined Mrs. Suman's fatal invitation.

Mrs. Suman smiled and said, "Well, at least tell me your name."

Locke originally wanted to make up a name at random to fool him. In this era, it was not uncommon to use pseudonyms, especially for prodigals in love, such as Sickert, who often used pseudonyms to be found out.

But unfortunately, Count Hagen came over and introduced Locke to Mrs. Suman with a smile.

"Oh, my beautiful Suman, you are so lucky to have met Locke Belmont. He is a true warrior. It was he and his partner Sigurd Bruce who saved my precious daughter from death. The kidnappers were rescued intact.”

Earl Hagen deliberately emphasized the tone of "Intact" just to let the people around him hear.

Nothing happened to Andy Hagen.

This is also the original intention of holding this dance.

It was to prove that his daughter was fine and not allow unscrupulous tabloid reporters to spread rumors, smear Andy Hagen's innocence, and affect her future marriage.

"Locke Belmont, what a great name. I knew your father, Bud Belmont."

Chapter 105, White Lover

Locke showed a surprised expression when he heard Mrs. Suman say her father's name.

Mrs. Suman's accent is a typical Kosolk accent. She is obviously a local. In addition, she is the mistress of Count Hagen. It is not surprising no matter how many Kosolk people she knows.

The strange thing is that a person of her social class knows her father who is down and out.

Locke had to suspect that Mrs. Suman had investigated herself in advance and wanted to use her father's relationship to get close to her.

"Oh, dear, what a coincidence. You actually know Locke Belmont's father. Tell me, what kind of person is Bud Belmont? He must be a good man who can teach such an outstanding son. Amazing father."

Earl Hagen said with a smile.

"The Bud Belmont I knew was a great magician, and his assistant, Penny, was a pretty beauty. They once took the circus in Kosolk by storm and wanted to see Bud. At its most exaggerated, you have to wait two months to see Bemon’s performance because the reservations are already fully booked.”

Mrs. Suman said with a smile. There were deep dimples on both sides of her cheeks. Her smile had a girlish shyness, which made Earl Hagen intoxicated.

He looked at his lover lovingly, and he couldn't help but began to yearn to watch the performance of the great magician Bud Bemon she talked about with his lover.

"Oh, if that's the case, then we must invite Bud Belmont to the Earls Court. I can't wait to see his performance."

"Sorry, my parents are dead."

If you want to see his performance so much, I'm afraid you have no choice but to go down and accompany him.

Locke added in his mind.

Earl Hagen opened his mouth slightly, showing a surprised expression.

A strange emotion also flashed in Mrs. Suman's eyes.

"Oh, is this true? I just knew that he was missing, but I didn't know that he was dead."

"Sorry, Locke Belmont, please have my condolences."

Earl Hagen said with sad eyes.

He couldn't imagine how desperate and sad his daughter would be if she suddenly lost her father.

Of course, he will not show this kind of pushy emotion to anyone, mainly because he likes the young Sheriff Locke very much. He is young and handsome, and is also his daughter’s savior. The most important thing is that he knows how to maintain a close relationship with his daughter. Keep distance and know how to protect your daughter's reputation.

It's not like some ignorant people who think that just by saving Andy Hagen, they can become their son-in-law. They want to marry into the Earl's Mansion to complete the class jump.

In fact, this was not the first time Andy Hagen ran away from home, nor was it the first time she encountered danger. Someone once rescued her and hoped to marry her, but was driven away by Earl Hagen.

Earl Hagen would not allow his daughter to marry a commoner, not even a family with a title lower than that of an earl.

He likes people who know things, like Locke and Sigurd.

"Thank you, Lord Earl, and Mrs. Suman for your concern."

In fact, Locke's parents did disappear. In Locke's impression, they owed a large debt and left. The Tumen Kingdom stipulates that if a missing person has been missing for three years, they will die by default. Unfortunately, Locke and Hannah did not receive pensions for this. , because their parents are not public officials and do not buy insurance.

In this era, there was no personal accident insurance, only the most basic commodity insurance.

Locke decided to wait until the bicycle business made money before he considered developing insurance business in this area and be the first to try it.

"Stop talking about such sad things, go and enjoy the dance. I hope you can find my baby girl."

Earl Hagen patted Locke on the shoulder.

Locke nodded with a smile, bid farewell to the count and his mistress, and entered the dance floor again.

"Look, what a fine young man."

"The Earl seems to like him very much."

Mrs. Suman said with a smile.

"Yes, I like such an energetic and positive young man, especially he is very handsome. Thank you goddess for keeping my daughter Andy calm and not clamoring to marry the hero who saved her. ”

Count Hagen said.

"Oh? Andy doesn't look like such a calm girl."

"Actually, she is currently immersed in the pain of losing her personal maid, and she does not remember the process of her rescue. I hope this ball can make her mood better."

Listening to the two men's innocuous conversation, Locke crossed the dance floor.

He wants to tell Sickert that Mrs. Suman is the red-haired woman, but the key is to find Sickert first.

Let go of [Acuity of Hearing] to accept all the sounds around you, find the voice that belongs to Sigurd, then concentrate, block out all sounds, and identify the direction where Sigurd's voice appears.

In this way, Locke avoided the sight of people around him and walked until he reached the door of a room at the end of the second floor.

"Believe me, this is the best way to get rid of pain and will allow you to experience real pleasure. Andy, don't be so resistant."

This is Judith's voice.

"Yes, believe me, Sigurd's skills are very good, even very good, and I enjoy playing with him."

This was the voice of Madame Malvina, the Baron's wife.

"Thank you Mrs. Malvina for the compliment. I will not let you down. Even if there are three of you together, I will not admit defeat."

"This is my first time."

Andy said shyly.

There was laughter and laughter in the room, and Sigurd was obviously enjoying it.

The corner of Locke's mouth twitched slightly, he didn't expect that Playboy Sickert was having so much fun that he would secretly hold a private party here.

Considering the relationship between the red-haired woman and Krista, he still knocked on the concierge, which could only temporarily interrupt Sigurd's good deeds.

Sigurd opened the door and saw Locke. He excitedly stretched out his hand and pulled him in.

"Locke, you came just in time. The three of them want to deal with me together. I must find a helper."

Only then did Locke see them sitting together, playing Tumen Poker.

The playing cards in Tumen Kingdom are round, with a total of 22 cards. The gameplay is single, but the punishment modes are diverse.

Seeing that Sigurd had taken off his coat, leaving only a thin shirt and trousers, we knew that their punishment was mostly to take off their clothes, so it was no wonder they had to play with the door behind closed doors.

"Welcome, Locke Belmont."

Judith said with a smile.

Mrs. Malvina's eyes also shone slightly, hoping that Locke could join.

Women have many accessories, such as hats, masks, earrings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, coats and skirts with three or four layers inside and outside, as well as gloves and various gemstone rings. They are very confident. Playing this kind of game can make them Siegel loses the panties.

Locke, who is about to join, will also become the target of their teasing.

"Miss Andy is here too. The people downstairs will not be able to get [the girl's smile] no matter what today."

Locke sat down next to Sigurd.

"Of course, the girl's smile is with us."

Sigurd looked at Andy Hagen with a pun.

Andy Hagen smiled at Locke, "Playing cards is indeed a good way to relax. Mr. Locke, you should try it too."

Although Rock looks noticeably smaller than Andy Hagen, it's polite to call a man Mr.

Locke shook his head, "I don't know how to play, please allow me to take a look."

"sure."

Sigurd said generously.

Judith began shuffling and cutting the cards, while Locke leaned into Sigurd's ear and whispered,

"I'm sure, Mrs. Suman is the one on the white carriage."

"Then the problem is complicated."

Sigurd said.

"Why?"

"Because this proves that Mrs. Suman is a believer of the witch. Mrs. Suman has many connections and is not someone who can be dealt with easily. Moreover, the relationship between Mrs. Suman and the Earl is so close. How can you guarantee that the Earl is not Become followers of the witch, or should the entire Earl's Mansion not become Mrs. Suman's private residence? We are mosquitoes falling into other people's spider webs. We are the ones who need to escape, not Mrs. Suman."

Sigurd whispered.

"What are you two grown men whispering about? Is there any secret that we can't hear?"

Judith asked with a smile.

"Yes, tell me and let us listen."

Mrs. Malvina looked at Sickert with a crooked eyebrow.

Sigurd looked at them with a smile and said,

"Locke was lamenting how Miss Andy had such a good figure. It was really eye-opening."

Locke sweats.

You are slandering.

Andy Hagen's fair cheeks were suddenly stained with a blush.

She quietly looked at Locke's handsome face.

"Girls of Miss Andy's age are most likely to be attracted to seemingly harmless teenagers like Locke, but don't be deceived by their appearances."

Sigurd said with a smile.

Andy Hagen immediately and nervously denied, "I didn't."

"Andy, don't deny it so quickly. It's easy to see the flaws."

Judith teased.

Mrs. Malvina laughed in agreement.

Although everyone was booing, Andy Hagen's mood was obviously much better.

"Sieg, after this game, we should go back. Don't forget that we have to work late tonight."

Locke and Sieg are investigators of the Sheriff's Court, equivalent to senior sheriffs. As long as they are sheriffs, they may be assigned to work the night shift.

"Ah, such a bummer."

Judith was the first to sigh.

"Yeah, can't we play a little longer? The party just started not long ago."

Mrs. Malvina looked at Sieg reluctantly.
