Mystery: Paradox Path

No. 22, Pacefield Street, where the Ruen Charitable Scholarship Fund is located.

Audrey put the document in her hand back on the table, looked up at the wall clock hanging on the wall of the director's office, the time had just reached ten o'clock.

She carefully looked around, and after confirming that there was no one else, she straightened her calf, her back straight, and her arms tensed, allowing herself to stretch without a trace.

But at this moment, there was a knock on the door of the office, which made Audrey shudder violently, but the power of the hypnotist made her quickly restrain her panic at that moment, and regained her lovely and charming aura. Miss Delly, said to the door:

"come in."

"Ms. Audrey, a gentleman decided to donate a sum of money, and the other party indicated that he wanted to see you." The one who entered the door was a somewhat reckless girl. She was the first batch of beneficiaries of the Ruen Charitable Scholarship Fund, because she has Good grammar literacy and social skills, are working-study as a receptionist.

"Understood, I'll be right here." Audrey took off a small mirror from her waist, sorted out her flawless appearance, then stood up and said to the girl at the door:

"Has the other party introduced himself?"

Although Audrey has not become the director of the Ruen Charity Scholarship Fund, but because of the social value of Earl Hall's daughter and the most dazzling gem of Backlund, she has come into contact with many people in the name of donations, hoping to catch up with her Relationships of minor nobles and merchants too.

However, she is not disgusted with this kind of thing. No matter what the other party thinks, the donation is indeed true, and it really helps those poor children and gives them the opportunity to change their fate, which is enough.

"The other party calls himself Viscount Pandre Dax, and only brought a servant, and is now in the VIP lounge." The girl immediately reported the somewhat convoluted surname. Launch URL p://m.biquke.

For her who came from a poor family, she is not very clear about the well-known news in the noble circle, and naturally she does not understand the reputation of the indescribably handsome gentleman in Loen's social circle.

Audrey's eyes lit up when she heard the surname, and she immediately said:

"I'll go right away."

...

"Good morning, Miss Hall, your beauty dims the stars."

"Good morning, Mr. Penredax." Audrey lifted her skirt and sat opposite the sofa where Snow was originally. The moment the two of them sat down again, a familiar feeling spread.

Audrey, who had become a hypnotist, finally grasped the details of this power under the premise that Snow did not hide it. The kind of ignorance acting on the subconscious made the communication between the two independent from the gazes of others.

"It's really not easy to see you now!" With the development of the private space, Snow's sitting posture immediately became much more casual. There was a little teasing in his tone, and Audrey also said helplessly:

"I wanted to go to the previous canonization dinner, but my brother felt that it might show some inappropriate information to the outside world."

Seeing Audrey's "cat sighing" expression, Snow couldn't help but laugh and shook his head:

"It's natural, after all, your father sold a large piece of territory at a very low price, which is already a very interesting move. If you come to the dinner again, I believe that the entire Backlund today is All the hot topics of salons and dances will become gossip about the Hall family trying to marry the new nobles."

"That's just an unprovoked conjecture of someone who doesn't know it." Audrey's cheeks flushed slightly, but it disappeared again soon. In fact, she had even heard worse rumors than this kind of news—

For example, "Earl Hall's daughter fell in love with the famous social grass. For his beloved daughter, and in order not to affect the family's reputation, Earl Hall could only resell the land and help him obtain a title" or something...

In fact, before her father, Earl of Hall, sold the land,

A family meeting has already been held to analyze Mr. Snow's political value, of course, essentially to appease the elder brother.

Seemingly not intending to continue this somewhat embarrassing topic, Audrey took the initiative to change the topic and said:

"By the way, Mr. Demon, what's the matter with you coming to see me this time?"

"Well, there are two main things." Snow nodded, and first took out a bank cheque from Backland with a face value of 100,000 pounds, "As a new noble, participating in charity is a must, compared to those so-called charities. I believe more in the event, and you should have heard of the enthusiastic organization under my command, I will leave you a business card, and if there is any official inconvenience, you can ask them to solve it.”

"Ah!" Although Audrey guessed that Mr. Snow would donate money, she did not expect to come up with such a large amount at one time. Although some businessmen will obtain knighthood through large political donations and charitable donations, but The so-called charity is actually a tribute to His Majesty the King through the charity port, and the real charity donation... Even her father only gave out 10,000 pounds!

Seemingly seeing Audrey's surprise, Snow showed a gentle smile and said:

"Don't be surprised, this itself is also a kind of 'appearance'. You should understand that certain things cannot be determined by a simple canonization ceremony. Nobility is a circle. If you want to enter this circle, you must show something, or Money, or force, or power, or influence.

Although I am not lacking in these aspects, the influence and force are more at the extraordinary level. For the arrogant nobles in Loen, they obviously do not regard the extraordinary as a kind of capital, and I have more rights. In MI9, it is not convenient to show more in this regard, so we can only show enough financial resources.

As long as I show that I am rich enough, even if I am regarded as a nouveau riche, those guys who want to maintain the dignity of the nobles will still make concessions out of interest.

Moreover, the kingdom's party competition is very fierce. My current tendency is to be a pure royal faction. As long as I show enough value, both the old and the new parties will try to get me to join, especially the conservative old aristocratic system whose main income is land rent— —After all, a hundred years ago, the Penredax family was also a traditional nobleman who was knighted by war. "

"I see." Audrey came from a noble family. After comparing her father's political status, she immediately understood Mr. Devil's thoughts, but she did not immediately go through the donation procedures, but continued:

"What about the other thing?"

"The other thing... of course, is to recharge the illusion on you! Recently, a force is trying to deepen the gap between the old and the new parties, and there are many shadows of high-level audiences, which is why I accept the canonization at this time. , In short, the Psychology Alchemy Society may have a big move recently. Every time you meet with their people, you'd better ask for protection from Mr. Fool, and the illusion I bless you is to ensure that you will meet at the moment of chance, An opportunity to complete prayers."
