Mystery: Shadow of Order

"Which beautiful girl in the Red Theater are you thinking of? So fascinated?"

Sharf laughed, showing an expression of "I know what you're thinking".

Alger glared at Scharf and snatched the full cup in front of him:

"I'm not you! Only women are always in my mind!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Sharf didn't care. He and Alger had known each other for several years and knew who the other party was. He filled another glass with a smile, "I have a woman in my head, and you have alcohol in your head."

Watching Alger drain the full glass of Sonia blood wine in one gulp, Sharf's face showed distress and cursed:

"This is not the bottle you just drank. I bought this bottle for 75 pounds."

Alger was stunned for a moment, smacking his lips:

"This bottle is not as good as before. The taste is too soft and sweet."

Sharf hurriedly put the exquisite bottle of Sonia blood wine back on the wine rack, turned his head and scolded:

"A guy like you who only pursues intensity is not qualified to drink this kind of good wine."

Alger didn't care either, but he also knew that he couldn't drink it this time, so he started to reminisce again.

After a while, Alger listened to it, looked at Scharf who was savoring it, and always felt a little out of place.

A dark-skinned man in his forties, holding a goblet, was savoring Sunia's blood wine. It was a "visual feast" for his eyes.

Alger frowned. Tomorrow is Monday, but Mr. Fool's Diary of the Great Emperor hasn't been searched yet?

Although the "Emperor" is not very good, Mr. Fool's requirements still have to be fulfilled, and a "playing method" is enough to open a big gap.

Looking at Sharf, he is a "craftsman" and should have these things in his hand, Alger asked:

"Charf, don't you have Emperor Roselle's notes here?"

Externally, Alger still said that it was the emperor's note, not the diary that Mr. Fool said.

Sharf suddenly froze and turned around with a strange expression on his face:

"What do you want that thing for? Do you really think there are treasures recorded on it?"

…

Backlund, Queens, Ballroom of Earl Wolfe's Villa.

It is now nearly ten o'clock, and the dance is about to end.

Earl Hall, who was wearing a black tuxedo, had already ended his conversation with Duke Negan. He walked over to his daughter Audrey, bent his right arm, and said with a smile:

"Audrey, we should go."

Audrey smiled and took Earl Hall's right arm, and asked lightly:

"Dad, what did you talk about with His Excellency the Duke? It took so long to appear?"

Earl Hall adjusted his tie with his free left hand and said in a deep voice

"Haha, nothing, it's just some policy issues. You have to know that the working hours of the current workers are still too long."

Audrey, who was holding her father's right arm, frowned. She felt that her father was lying, was he talking about something important?

"Your Excellency Count?"

A cold female voice sounded, causing the Hall father and daughter to turn around and look in the direction from which the voice came.

A middle-aged woman wearing a long purple dress with ruffles walked over quickly. She had a plump figure and fair skin, but compared with many noble ladies, she lacked gorgeous jewelry and delicate makeup.

With a little anxiety in her brows, she walked up to the Hall and his daughter and asked:

"Your Excellency, have you seen Rolls Adrian?"

Her tone was a little excited and not very polite. The direct question made Earl Hall and Audrey somewhat disgusted.

Rolls Adrian? That barrister? Didn't you go and talk to Earl Wolf?

But as a well-bred Audrey Hall who understands etiquette, she must not interrupt her elders' conversation. She is not the woman who is ignorant of etiquette.

Earl Hall's expression was indifferent. He always thought that Nozick's son was not good, and his daughter was OK, but now, he frowned and said:

"Mrs Maynard, you must know that I don't know Rolls Adrian."

After speaking, Mrs. Maynard regretted it. She had been searching for Rawls all night. Except for seeing Rawls at the beginning of the dance, she didn't even see a shadow afterward.

Although her father got the invitation to the ball, now Martin Nozick, the controversial new party boss, is not suitable to appear at the ball, so she can only be left to her. The Nozick family has been married to Tingen for more than ten years. Year's daughter came forward.

Although there are people from both parties invited to the ball, there are still more Conservative guests. In addition, I have not come to Backlund many times, and there are few new party guests, so I have nothing to gain in one night, so I can only find Earl Hall who just appeared.

Mrs. Maynard lifted her skirt, bowed, and said apologetically:

"I'm very sorry, Your Excellency, I apologize for the rudeness just now."

Earl Hall's expression is a little better. Although he doesn't like many stubborn nobles who attach great importance to etiquette, he is also an earl who has been hereditary for hundreds of years, and he still needs the proper etiquette. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

"I've been discussing matters with Duke Negan all night, and I haven't seen Rolls Adrian."

"But tonight is the only one..."

Earl Hall's expression turned cold again, and he rebuked mercilessly:

"Mrs. Maynard! Missing is missing. We all tried our best."

Then her face turned clear, and she said to Audrey with a smile:

"Audrey, we should go, your mother is still waiting for us at home."

Audrey, who knew Rolls' whereabouts, heard her father's words, sighed in her heart, and left with Earl Hall.

Half an hour later, Rolls, who was smiling, walked out of the villa under the watch of Earl Wolf, who was also smiling.

Rolls, who was walking towards his carriage, had long lost the smile on his face. He was full of doubts. What did he do at the dance today?

Rawls was notified by Todd not long after the ball started that Earl Wolfe was talking to him. Originally thought that Earl Wolf was going to inquire about the preparations of his case, or used his identity as an earl to embolden him, and even bought himself with money, so that Lancer Nozick was sentenced to a heavy sentence.

But none. He chatted with Earl Wolf for nearly three hours, covering issues of the kingdom system, the four major academies, Rawls's office, Rawls' relationship status, and the most content of the Quaternary Southern Continent worship. Stories about the Lang royal collection.

But for the case, for the party, Earl Wolfe didn't mention a word, and the only thing he mentioned about the "Corn Act" was also mentioned by him.

Maurice, the personal servant, greeted him, and he breathed a sigh of relief:

"Sir, you finally came out."

Yes, I finally came out, I thought I was going to stay!

Wait, no.

"Is anyone looking for me?"
