MTL - Examination of the Imperial Examination-Chapter 17 acquaintance

At this moment, Mrs. Rosa Bonnard's housekeeper came over and led Alvin to the study on the second floor.

Walking up to the second floor, the study in front of Alvin's eyes is bigger than his entire apartment on the second floor. The bookshelves and desks are exquisitely furnished and the details are extravagant.

There is actually a bed part, a living part, a dressing part, and a toilet part.

He complained in his heart: "It's really hard to imagine the life of a rich person. Can such a big place be used?"

There was a picture frame covered by a curtain hanging behind the desk. Alvin was very curious, but politely did not ask the housekeeper next to him.

Alvin took the easel off his shoulders and asked, "Where do I need to put it?"

With a professional smile on his face, the butler stretched out his hand to take the easel and said, "Just leave it to me. You can go to the salon on the first floor. If you need these tools later, just find me directly."

"Thank you." Alvin smiled and nodded in thanks.

Then I walked out of the luxurious study, walked through the elegantly decorated corridor on the second floor, walked down the stairs to the living room on the first floor, and found that there were already many guests. Everyone gathered together in twos and threes, standing or sitting, talking about their interests. topic of.

Looking at these crowds, it was difficult for Alvin to blend in for a while.

Mrs. Rosa Bonnard, was chatting with a few people, one of them was gorgeously dressed and had obvious aristocratic temperament.

The lady on the left, about 1.65 meters tall, was wearing a long beige dress with a ruffled stand-up collar, her brown hair was curled slightly, her eyes were light blue, and she had a lazy and decadent temperament.

Standing beside her is a person who is short in height, at most about 1.5 meters, with some baby fat cheeks, delicate and soft facial features, but the eyebrows and eyes seem to have never opened, and they are quite green. Although she has messy, shoulder-length yellow hair and wears traditional knight training uniforms, she has an indescribable majesty and believable charm.

Seeing the combination of these two people, Alvin was taken aback for a moment, and there was always an indescribable sense of familiarity.

"Why do I feel this way? I'm sure I've been here for a year and I haven't seen the two of them. This is..."

In the image and memory of the two of them, the two people in the original book overlapped: "Fors Wall and Hugh Dilcha, "Storm House" should have been thought of long ago."

I didn't expect to meet the future members of the Tarot Club in the original book so soon, Alvin was a little overwhelmed for a while, "Would you like to go up and say hello? Or..."

Xio was originally the eldest lady of the court noble Dill family, and her ancestors held the title of earl of the palace. This time, she came to Pritz Harbor to accompany her friend Forth to negotiate a new book release contract.

She's used to seeing such situations since she was a child. Although she doesn't like it, she can handle it calmly. She is smiling and listening to her friends and wives talking.

She suddenly felt that someone was watching. She didn't care at first. It was normal to be looked at and observed at the banquet, but it was usually a very obscure gaze. Gradually, she realized that this gaze had been staring at herself and others, and her embroidered eyebrows were slightly frowning. Turn your head to look for the source of sight.

In Xiu's line of sight, there was a black-haired, black-eyed, handsome-looking man standing at the entrance of the stairs. He looked in his 20s and exuded a bookish aura. He was wearing a black and silver thin trench coat, a white shirt, no tie, and a neckline. The buttons are open, black trousers, black leather boots, a kitten is lying on his shoulders, one person, one cat, four eyes are staring at this side at the same time.

Forsi also felt the sense of staring, turned his head and cast his gaze over, and saw Alvin who was thinking about it. The light blue eyes had a somewhat playful smile, obviously taking him as wanting to come over. Pick up a conversation with a man who lacks courage.

As the two turned their heads, Mrs. Rosa Bonnard and another luxuriously dressed lady also looked over.

Mrs. Rosa Bonnard, seeing Alvin's figure, smiled and nodded apologetically with a few people, and walked towards him.

"Meow!" A soft meow pulled Alvin back from the state of distracted thoughts.

Seeing Mrs. Rosa Bonnard walking towards her with a smile on her face, Alvin also stepped forward slowly.

Mrs. Rosa Bonnard walked up to her with an elegant gait, and whispered, "Come with me, I can introduce you. You are completely confident, and you don't have to stand there and observe."

Alvin knew that his actions just now were a little rude and embarrassing, and thought to himself, "Madam, it's not what you think, you misunderstood, I just saw an acquaintance."

Following in the footsteps of Mrs. Rosa Bonnard, she came to the side of Fores and Hugh.

Looking at the two of them, Alvin felt a little emotional for a while. He had imagined many times in his mind, on various occasions, when he met the people of the Tarot Club, he thought that he would be able to deal with them calmly.

She sighed in her heart: "Alas! I still lack exercise too much."

He quickly adjusted his mood. With the mutual introduction of Mrs. Rosa Bonnard, Alvin knew that the gorgeously dressed lady was a Viscountess, the host of this salon, and a female critic at the same time. Said to be a student of the famous writer "Bazar".

"No wonder, there is an aristocratic temperament when raising his hand, critic? What is it, the keyboard warrior of the previous life forum?" Alvin thought.

He gave the Viscountess a gentleman's salute and said with a smile, "Your beauty illuminates the whole salon."

Mrs. Rosa Bonnard next to her, hearing this familiar conversation, glanced at Alvin, turned her head slightly, and almost laughed.

The Viscountess bowed back in accordance with the etiquette of the nobles, and responded: "The same is true for your arrival. I have seen your paintings in Mrs. Rosa's study. They are very good. The simple black and white tone makes people rich in reverie. way of painting.”

Alvin also bragged to each other in business: "Your comments are often the chapters I must read when reading newspapers, and I still carry your teacher's writings with me to this day."

After speaking, he took out "Tragedy on Earth" from his trench coat pocket.

Seeing the book, the smile on the Viscountess' face became even brighter, and she received a gesture from Mrs. Rosa Bonnard, "I think you young people must have a lot to talk about."

The three exchanged a few more words, and the three watched Madame Rosa Bonnard and the Viscountess walk towards the other guests. The three of them withdrew their gazes and looked at each other.

Three people and one cat, the atmosphere suddenly became a little silent.

Alvin let out a sigh of relief, facing Forsi and Xio, joking and scrutinizing eyes, bowed gently, smiled and introduced himself: "Good evening, two beautiful ladies, Alvin Tieyan, a painter" Pauses After a while, he added "Street painter."

He pointed to the cat on his shoulder, "Yumi, used to be a stray cat."

"Meow"

At the same time, he added in his heart, "Miss Magician in the future, Miss Judge, it's been a long time."

"Good afternoon, Hugh Dilcha, nice to meet you." Lolita's voice was a little majestic, it was Miss Judgment's voice.

Then, "Fors Wall, a writer, maybe we can sit down and talk." With a bit of laziness, Miss Magician looked at the leather sofa in the living room and said.

"I'm sorry, it was my negligence, maybe we can get another drink." Alvin bowed slightly and made a gesture of please.

"Ms Fors, your "Storm House" has left a deep impression on me to this day. The plot is full of ups and downs, and it is difficult for people to guess what will happen next." After the two sides sat down, Alvin smiled slightly and said to Forsi. arrive.

"Of course there is Miss Hugh the Arbiter. Your behavior in Backlund is truly admirable." Alvin said that he lied without blinking.

Xio asked in surprise, "You know me?"

Xio frowned slightly, trying to recall, and looked at Foersi, seeing his friend shaking his head slightly, and then looking at Alvin again.

"Of course, I was fortunate enough to be in Backlund, the Dragon Bar. I saw you helping people with arbitration. To be honest, I originally planned to be a wandering painter in Backlund. The fierce competition there is not suitable for me, a new school painter with outstanding style. "Alvin pretended to be helpless.

"So that's how it is." Xio looked stunned. In fact, she couldn't remember it either. She was a well-known underground "arbiter" in the East District. She knew a lot of people, so she didn't think much about it.

"Your cat is very special." Huo pointed to the two who had been staring at them curiously, Yuumi said.

"It's called Yumi, he's usually very smart," Alvin replied with a smile ~www.novelbuddy.com~ and exchanged a few words, after all, it was the first time we met, and there were not so many topics to talk about, and it was impossible for Alvin to express it directly. so familiar.

After a while, the two stood up and held the cup to signal to Alvin that they were going to communicate with others.

Just when the two started to walk, Alvin thought for a while, but still felt that something was revealed, so he got up and said, "Ms.

Seeing the two of them stop and look back in confusion, they pointed to her wrist and said, "Your bracelet is special, but it's best not to use it easily."

Foersi in front of him suddenly looked shocked, and then felt a little uneasy. He pulled the lotus leaf on the cuff to cover the stone bracelet.

On the side, Xio's expression became serious, and she looked at Alvin with some alertness. She touched the outer thigh with her right hand, where there was her weapon, a military thorn.

Yuumi, who was on Alvin's shoulders, also sat up straight, his muscles tense, and a pair of beast pupils stared at Xio closely. On this short man, it felt threatened, as if it would jump out in the next second.

Although it is very smart, it is also somewhat unclear about what happened. The two waves of people who were fine just now suddenly, the atmosphere is a little frozen for a while, it is really hard to understand, don't think about it, after all, I am just a cat, follow the shovel. wrong.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not malicious." Seeing the actions of the two, Alvin knew that he was too direct, which caused the two to misunderstand.

Just as he was about to explain, Mrs. Rosa Bonnard's housekeeper came over and said to Alvin, "Mrs. and the Viscountess invite Mr. Alvin to the study."

"This……"

"Maybe we can talk later." It's hard for outsiders to talk about this kind of thing, so we can only talk next time.

Then he followed the housekeeper and went to the stairs on the second floor.
