Magus Tech Chapter 884: Marquis dinner
.., Tech Wizard
After that, Richard entered the underground factory, packed all the uranium ore raw materials in the warehouse into the Garden of Eden he brought, and then returned to the Blue Lake Manor.
In the study of the Blue Lake Manor, Li Cha calmed down a bit, adjusted his state, opened the Garden of Eden and walked in, and began to devote himself to the research and manufacture of nuclear weapons.
At this time, it was pitch black.
…
The pitch-black sky shrouded Jialan City, but at a location in Jialan City, it was brightly lit and bustling.
This is the residence of the Marquis of Wei An.
In the banquet hall of the mansion, hundreds of candles were lit, and the crystal chandelier hanging on the top was as bright as a small sun, illuminating the entire hall without an inch of darkness, as if the day had come again.
The band hired in the corner is the famous "Roth" band. All the members are wearing blue and white uniforms and playing with an intoxicated look.
Under the manipulation of the band members, musical instruments of various shapes emit extremely soft and harmonious tones, floating in the hall continuously, rendering a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere.
In the middle of the hall, more than a dozen dining tables are placed, with exquisite tableware and sumptuous food: roasted goose with fruit, herb steak, fried cod, fruit platter...
There are too many people participating, and it is specially organized as a buffet to meet the different needs of everyone.
Of course, the people who came to this banquet seldom really value the delicious food, but more of holding a glass of wine and talking with the people around them in the hall to achieve their communication goals.
Things of a kind gather together and people are divided into groups. In the entire hall, it can be vaguely seen that there are several circles divided.
The Marquis of Wei'an represents the most important circle. The people who surrounded and talked with Marquis Wei'an were all prominent figures in Jialan City, and they were either rich or noble. In a sentence of conversation, they have completed many exchange of interests with each other, which will affect the situation of Jialan City in the future.
In addition, it is the circle of noble ladies. Although they are only vassals of the nobles, they are also very decent at this time, and the atmosphere is harmonious. While talking in a low voice, she looked in the direction of her husband from time to time.
The rest is the circle of noble children.
They are not the protagonists of this banquet, but they cannot be ignored.
Although they don't have enough energy to influence anything now, with the support of their parents, most of them will become the successors of the family in ten years' time.
Therefore, they all tried their best to behave like their fathers, restrained their stubborn personalities, and talked to the people around them like a real nobleman.
Among them was Harry, the son of the Marquess of Vian.
Harry, in his teens, was wearing a decent black evening dress at this time, talking with a few acquaintances of the same age.
Among his peers, several of them were his classmates in Ashes College, and they had acquired some extraordinary knowledge, with arrogance, and some contempt for the children of ordinary nobles.
However, they all maintained a certain amount of respect for Harry. On the one hand, Harry's father, Marquis Vian, had stronger abilities than he appeared on the surface. On the other hand, they all knew that in addition to studying at the Academy of Ashes, Harry also studied with another powerful and mysterious wizard.
This wizard is said to be much more powerful than Mr. Wei Qi from their Ashes Academy.
A girl called Emily, twelve or thirteen years old, wearing a pink skirt, looked at Harry seriously and asked: "Harry, I heard that today's dinner, your Father—Mr. Marquis Vian, invited your mysterious wizard teacher, right?"
After hearing the girl's words, several people of the same age nearby cast their gazes at Harry.
Harry nodded after hearing this, and admitted: "Yes, I heard from my father that he did invite Teacher Li Cha to participate. But... from what I know about the teacher, he doesn't like it very much. It's lively, so the chances of coming to participate are not very high."
"Just in case, I mean just in case." The girl named Emily looked at Harry seriously and asked, "In case that wizard Richard of yours comes, can you introduce him to me?" .”
"This..." Harry hesitated.
"Please, just let me see him." Emily begged, looking at Harry with wide eyes.
Looking at Emily's appearance, Harry suddenly felt his heart beat a little faster, his throat was a little dry, and he said, "Okay."
"Thank you, Harry!" Emily immediately smiled happily.
Looking at Emily's smile, Harry felt a turmoil in his heart. He could hardly restrain his inner emotions, and his face couldn't help but feel a little hot. Seeing his younger sister Cathy waving to him in the distance, she quickly said sorry and walked over.
…
Harry walked quickly to his younger sister Cathy, let out a long breath, then looked at Cathy and asked, "What's wrong, Cathy?"
"Mr. Li Cha, did you not come?" Cathy asked aloud.
"It seems not." Harry shook his head.
"The banquet is almost halfway through now." Cathy said, with a bit of disappointment, "It seems that the teacher will not come with a high probability."
"Yes." Harry agreed, then sighed, "I'm still planning to introduce Emily to the teacher, but it seems that I have no chance."
"Emily?" Cathy raised her eyebrows, looked into the distance with some vigilance, locked on the figure of the girl named Emily, then looked back at Harry, and asked, "Why did you agree?" About her?"
"This..." Harry opened his mouth, and explained somewhat vaguely, "She is very sincere, and she has always been nice to me. His father, Mr. Romm, has a very good relationship with our father, so... I agreed."
"No wonder!" Cathy saw the truth and said, "You clearly like her."
"I—" Harry opened his mouth again, not knowing how to explain.
At this time, Cathy said: "Let me tell you first, although you like her very much, I hate her very much."
"Huh? Why?"
"Because I think she is hypocritical, and most importantly, she actually wore a skirt of the same color as mine." Cathy pointed to the pink pleated skirt under her body, and said quite angrily.
"..." Harry was silent for a while, feeling that the reason why girls hate people is really inexplicable.
"In short, you can like others, but not her." Cathy said.
Harry frowned, feeling a little shameless, and said angrily: "Why! When you like others, I didn't interfere."
"I like someone else? Who?"
"Mino~IndoMTL.com~Harry pointed to a boy with freckles in the distance.
Cathy stared: "I don't like him."
"But when he expressed his affection to you, you did not refuse."
"That's me testing him."
"Test what?"
"See if he is sincere."
"Aren't you sincere?"
"Of course I refuse."
"Really?"
"Deny also."
Harry: "..."
