Arena Palace.Mr.
Harford's private party.The mystery that shrouded four crowe over a night's hefty work has finally been revealed.At the very least, the public information that the waiters were able to learn came to the surface smoothly."
Seriously, the level of secrecy in this matter is so exaggerated, it's completely clueless!
Even the official completion of the Arena Palace has never been announced, and we didn't even know that construction had started again. ”Thunder Peters had a magical look of surprise on his face.Brutus also agreed with the jaw."
If it weren't for Mr.
Harford personally inviting my father, I overheard the conversation, and I still don't know that there is so much activity outside Iwabuchi Castle."
Before Ray Peters could finish speaking, Brutus turned his head to look over, "If Mr.
Froude knows that you are still using the secret passage in the study next door, you know what to expect." ”Thunder Peters' expression stiffened, but he still stiffened his neck in protest, "Anyway, he never cared about my whereabouts, how could he know where I was?"
”A secret passage to the study?
Hodden caught the keyword, but wasn't prepared to ask more.Actually, it's not hard to guess.In those ancient and luxurious aristocratic mansions, there were many secret passages, which were specially used by servants.Because there may be guests coming and going in the mansion in normal times, it is inconvenient for the servants to appear in front of everyone, so they need to use these secret passages to appear in all corners of the house.Many up-and-coming nouveau riche who are uninformed may have the misconception that the servants are never seen in the mansion or where they come from, just like the house-elves in "Harry Potter".Of course, these secret passages are often used by noble young masters and noble ladies, for example, to secretly date their sweethearts.From the clues in Thunder Peters's words, it can be found that whether it is the state of the mansion, or Mr.
Froude's invitation from Mr.
Harford, coupled with Brutus's words just now, it can be seen from all aspects that Ray Peters should have come from a noble family with a long tradition.I just don't know if Mr.
Harford invited Mr.
Froude because Mr.
Froude was qualified, or because he specifically greeted the ground snake?
Regarding the private affairs of the Ray Peters family, Holden did not intend to ask, and continued to listen.After Repers and Brutus had an argument, he continued, "But apparently my father was not interested in the banquet and has not been there. ”"Harford?
Is this a nobleman?
”For the first time since Ray Peters explained the ins and outs of Arena Palace, Holden raised questions.The question was a bit clueless, and even Horden himself did not think it clearly, but only asked it intuitively—he always felt that Mr.
Harford's identity and actions were a little strange, but he couldn't say it; What's more, he thought Mr.
Harford was more of a businessman than an aristocrat.Brutus and Robben both looked at Hoden in surprise, not understanding Hoden's willingness to ask, but the answer Raypeters gave surprised them both."
No, it's not."
Ray Peters denied it."
Isn't it?"
Brutus exclaimed, even more incomprehensible: how could he not be a nobleman?
If it weren't for the aristocracy, how could he invite a large number of nobles to the banquet?
Ray Peters spread his hands and said with an innocent face, "I don't know.But when his father called him, he was just Mr., not a title. ”Aristocrats, especially those with a long history, are very sensitive to the requirements for titles and titles.In addition to the sir, the sir, the knight, and the specific title of the knighthood, etc., these details are etiquette, and they are the etiquette that the nobility is absolutely not allowed to abandon; And these details can also show the etiquette, upbringing and heritage of the nobility themselves."
I peeked at the business card he left for my father."
Ray Peters adds, "There was no title on it, and the same was true of his words and deeds—well-educated, but not of aristocratic origin. ”Hoden cast a glance at Ray Peters: What does this mean?
Ray Peters further explains, "The aristocracy had requirements for the choice of words, pronunciation, tone, etc., and had to receive a rigorous education from an early age.Not only that, but the aristocracy had to learn literature, art, and etiquette from an early age, which may not be useful in normal times, but could still be hidden in conversation. ”"Those real high-ranking nobles in Tuno can judge the other party's origin from just two or three sentences of dialogue, and even whether they are down-and-out nobles can accurately identify."
Thunderpeters exudes a hint of rejection and disdain, and it is clear that he is not interested in them, even if they hate them deeply—it seems that from childhood to adulthood, the pressure from his father and brother should have filled the corners of Thunderpeters' life."
Our family can only be regarded as a side branch of the countryside.If we go to Tuno, no one will look at us at all, so Argrini joined the White Lion Legion, hoping to earn a knighthood by building up his military merits, so that he can gain a foothold in Tuno.The so-called aristocracy means that everything can be the standard of status and glory, and the only thing missing is respect for the individual. ”Even though Holden didn't ask, Raypeters generously complained to himself."
Hoden?"
Robben looked at Hoden, raised his tail note, and cast an inquiring gaze.But it wasn't that Robben didn't understand Raypeters' explanation, but asked for another important point—that Hoden could understand without an explanation.After a moment of silence, Hoden gave an answer, "It's not a nobleman, and it's not unusual. ”"Perhaps this Mr.
Harford was very sociable and drilled, built up enough contacts in the aristocratic circles of Tuno, and then gathered a group of young nobles through his own ability, and gradually spread the reputation of the private parties of the Arena Palace, using the parties to open up the channels of communication, and then build a huge network."
At hand, Hodden gave a guess.Of course, there may be other possibilities; But this is one of the more likely possibilities."
Network?
What network?
”Robben couldn't understand.Holden cast a meaningful look: this was what they needed to figure out next, something that had to do with Samuel's disappearance.But in the mouth, Hoden still made an explanation, which was used to say to Ray Peters and Brutus, "Business network."
You must know that connections and information are invaluable. ”"People often think that the most valuable person may be the psyker, it may be gold jewelry, but the real key is not to see and touch the information, because information can create infinite value, which is an attribute that a single commodity does not have.That's what Mr.
Harford was. ”()
