4. Jacques in distress


The Duchess, who sat at the head of the table, looked at her son with pity, and finally did not say anything to stop her.It seems that she does not support Noah's trip to the plane, but with Louis's intercession, she can only reluctantly agree with Noah's decision to leave Illinas City, she did not say those words of obstruction, but pressed Noah's hand on the back of her hand with a gentle hand, and said to him: "When you get to Vasquier, listen to the advice of the Rand knight and don't take risks." ”Noah nodded confidently at the Duchess and patted his chest.

He said, "Please rest assured. ”Noah's brothers and sisters gathered around the table to enjoy the last exquisite dessert, and the Duchess just ate two cherries casually, signaled that Noah must treat us well, and got up and left the restaurant first.The figure of the Duchess disappeared from the door of the restaurant, and the young nobleman near the door ran cautiously and gently closed the door of the restaurant.That's when the restaurant starts to get noisy.A fair-skinned young man with gloomy eyes looked up and said to the butler standing aside, "Butler Bird, please bring us some wine, for how can we do without a little wine on such a celebratory day?"

”He has curly brown hair, a high nose bridge, and slightly thin lips, which I don't know what is applied to them, but they are purple-black.Steward Bird bowed and replied, "Do as you ask, Master Nick. ”At this time, a familiar voice came from the end of the table, it was the voice of a girl who had talked to the voice-changing teenager before: "Jacques, the dinner is not over yet, where are you going?"

”The young man in the voice change period became a little distracted, and after thinking for a long time, he said with a little weakness: "Well, I just want to go to the bathroom!"

”The girl smiled slyly: "Hehe, I thought you were going to take the opportunity to slip away again, I heard that you have lost a lot of money in the city casino recently, and many people from venture capital companies are looking for you everywhere." ”The young man's voice immediately became a little sharp: "Impossible, this is not a matter at all, I just invested all the money in my hand into a few mines, you know, now the business in all walks of life is not very prosperous, and I have only been able to turn around recently." ”"It's okay if you don't, I'm just a little curious, if those venture capital firm people really push you into a hurry, will you hide in the Vaschi plane?"

The girl chuckled.The young man named Jacques immediately retorted, "I'm not stupid, I won't run to the Waski plane at this time, and I don't have a brother who is the first in line to the throne!"

”This little unspoken argument lasted only a few minutes.It seems that the families of the wealthy nobles are not as harmonious as they seem on the surface, it seems that these young nobles have their own small circles, and they will get together and talk in a low voice, but for a while, no one comes to Noah's side.The young aristocrats preferred to talk at the dinner table about who was the focus of the ball, about the most fashionable costumes of the year, about the new repertoire at the opera house recently, about the luxury goods in the art capital of Buenos, about where to escape the heat of the summer.The first dinner at the Duke Mensa's castle ended with the young men chattering in a mess.Walking out of the restaurant, Noah said to the butler standing at the door of the restaurant, "Butler Bird." ”"Young Master Noah, what do you command?"

The butler immediately came over.Noah said to him, "We are going to go through the portal tomorrow to the Waski plane, and tomorrow morning we will be arranged to pass through the portal!"

”Butler Bird pondered for a moment before he said, "Young Master Noah, it's unfortunate that the portal on the Vaskey plane has been overhauled for the past few days, and it may still be unusable tomorrow. ”Hearing this, Noah and I looked at each other, what a coincidence!

Noah then asked Bird's butler, "When will teleportation resume?"

”Bird's butler said calmly: "If there are no accidents, it should be the day after tomorrow!"

”Noah patted his forehead helplessly, sighed slightly before saying, "Oh, well, if the portal is restored, you have to notify me as soon as possible." ”Steward Bird said, "Do as you ask." ”Then he saluted Noah and withdrew.Although it was completely dark, we were in no hurry to rest.Noah led our group up to the castle wall, standing on the wall to see the sea shrouded in darkness in the distance, Noah held the wall with both hands, sat on the wall, and said to the warm sea breeze, "Actually, the beach at night is more interesting than during the day." ”Shirley.

Newman proposed, "Otherwise, let's go to the beach!"

”Ying Li echoed Helena and Becky, and it could be seen that they were quite yearning for the night view of the Emerald Bay, and since Butler Bird said that there was no way to pass through the portal in the Duke's Palace tomorrow, we would have a day to spare.Since you are not in a hurry to go to Vaschi, there is nothing wrong with going for a walk at the beach at night.Noah immediately instructed the attendants to prepare the magic caravan, and then asked Shirley and me again.

Newman, do you want to call the followers together, since you are going to the beach, of course, there are more people to look lively.The waiter in the castle will be Shirley.

When Newman's swordswoman, Carantso, Katerina, and Deborah brought them over, the magic caravan was already at the gate of the castle.We boarded the magic caravan and drove through the darkness to the seaside, a secluded spot five kilometers south of the city of Illinas, where the beach was covered with fine white sand.According to Noah, this white beach belongs to the private beach of the Mensa family, and commoners are forbidden to come here, even the nobles of other families need to explain to the housekeeper of the Mensa family if they want to come to this beach, so it is very quiet here, and usually no one disturbs it.The sea at night is extremely deep, and the sound of the waves comes in waves, and finally turns into white waves and disappears into the soft sand.I pulled Ying Li, stepping barefoot on the warm sand, the sea water is warm, Ying Li also learned that I took off my leather boots, lifted the skirt of the magic robe, stood barefoot in the sea water, let the waves kiss her feet, she excitedly stretched out her feet, to step on the waves of waves, before we knew it, the sea water had submerged our knees.Karantso and the Bena swordswoman sat on the beach high up and watched us quietly, as if she, like Ruka, did not like the sea.Becky and Helena stood in the sea not far away and frolicked, Deborah was pulled by Katarina, she had an indescribable fear of this sea, and at the same time full of curiosity, wanting to rush into the sea like us, but her heart was extremely entangled, and she looked at the dark sea with some horror.At this time, Noah had already pulled Shirley.

Newman ran farther away, but he didn't seem to know it yet, and in the dark night, my eyesight was far beyond that of a normal person, and I could see farther away.At this moment, I happened to see Noah and Shirley under the cover of the night.

Newman stood in the middle of the sea and kissed.Ying Li next to me didn't know anything about this, and she asked me a little strangely, "Where did Noah and Shirley go?"

”I pointed in the opposite direction of Noah and Shirley, smiled, took Ying Li's hand and said, "They're probably over there!"

Let's go, let's go find them. ”The night completely enveloped the seaside, and also covered the shyness in people's hearts.The first rays of the morning sun shone through the gauze curtain on the large bed in the guest room, and I smelled the faint salty sea breeze, and I was awakened by Caterina from her sleep.I glanced sleepily at the sky outside, and asked her a little confused, "Why did you wake me up so early?"

”Caterina pursed her lips, pointed to the living room outside the bedroom, and whispered to me, "Princess Yingli is waiting for you outside!"

”Only then did I remember that I had promised Ying Li last night to accompany her for a visit to Illinas City this morning.I struggled to sit up from the bed and asked Katarina, "What about Noah?"

Forget it, leave him alone!

”I jumped out of bed quickly, put on a magic robe, and Caterina served me to wipe my face, and ran out of the bedroom to meet Ying Li.Wins, Helena, and Becky were standing on the terrace, bathed in the morning light, whispering as they surveyed the castle.Helena saw me running out of my bedroom and pulled me out of the castle.While complaining to me, he said, "Who swore last night that he would take us to the city of Illinas this morning?"

”I grabbed her soft little hand with my backhand, pointed to the sun outside, and said, "It's not too late to go."

Look, the sun is just creeping up outside!

”We passed by Noah's room and saw an attendant guarding the door of Noah's room.Helena leaned into my ear and whispered to me, "How are you going to wake up that friend of yours?"

”I wiped my nose and asked her, "Why wake him up, and when he wakes up, let the waiter tell him where we're going." ”As we stepped out of the castle gates, Butler Bird happened to be standing at the door, looking at us with a calm face, and asked us, "Distinguished guests, feel free to walk around the manor, and if you want to go out, I can prepare a magic caravan for you." ”I said very politely to Butler Bird, "Thank you, Butler Bird."

But we just want to wander around the city of Ilinas casually, wouldn't it be fun to travel in a magic caravan?

”Butler Bird smiled faintly at me and said, "Let's take a magic caravan!"

Believe me, Ilinas is actually a lot bigger than you think, and the coachman will take you where you want to go. ”Butler Bird quickly called for a magic caravan for us, and we rode out of Duke Mensa's castle.
