Chapter 571: Covert investigation

Chapter 538 Secret Investigation

The manor is brightly lit.

A three-story house is horizontally placed in the center of the garden.

Although the height is not majestic, the area is not small. From the main

building to the auxiliary buildings on both sides, the span is almost a

thousand steps long. Coupled with its vertical extension, it is not worthy of

a hundred or eighty servants to take care of it.

Moreover, the house is not large, and the details are also missing, such as

the bronze statues on both sides of the road leading to the main entrance, the

carved stone lions at the gate, the fine wood and stone used for the walls,

and the artificial water leaning down from the top of the house. The

curtains... all explain the wealth of the owner of the villa.

It's a different world from the shanty town of the factory.

In addition, Xia Fan noticed that the mansion in front of him had more than

one entrance and exit, and while the auction was being held here, other

activities were also being held.

"It's true." After asking Rutherin, the defense officer gave a positive

answer. "The Saint-Blenix Palace can be said to be the most frequent place for

the upper class of the Côte d'Azur. There are banquets and dances almost every

day. The cold auction items are still more attractive to the younger

generation to get along with their peers and have fun."

"Who is the owner of this villa?" Xia Fan asked again.

Lather lowered his voice, as if he didn’t want the butler to hear their

conversation, “It’s the one with the crown in Sheila in name, but it’s

actually hard to tell.”

With a crown...In all likelihood, he refers to the king of the Holy Wing

Islands, "Why is it hard to tell?"

"It's the same as the Chamber of Commerce. If there are too many people in the

business, and if there are too many people from different backgrounds, it is

always a difficult mystery to whom it belongs to and who speaks." Lassein

curled his lips, "Sacred Palace Villa is also a mystery. The same...it only

existed in the capital city of Sheila at first, and then gradually expanded,

and there is one in almost every realm. And whether it is opening an auction

house or a casino, the income is quite good, so more and more people are

entering the group. The more it is, it is now a behemoth. I heard that this

holy palace in the Azure Castle, the Earl has voted a lot."

Good guy, Xia Fan whispered in his heart, this has become a chain enterprise,

and it still starts with the Chinese character.

No wonder the butler dared to talk to the baron with a nearly equal attitude.

Entering the gate of the main building, Xia Fan found that he still

underestimated the dealer's financial resources. The interior decoration

simply highlights a magnificent splendor, the floor is all-colored marble

parquet floor tiles, the overhead tower chandelier is not only a lighting

tool, but also a work of art-the angel praying around the candle is vivid, and

its exquisite craftsmanship is amazing. In addition, even the supporting stone

pillars on both sides of the aisle are coated with a layer of gold paint, and

the fire light will shine with light. Put it in another world, this can be

properly classified as cultural heritage, write on the pillar that you can

give away a silver bracelet during this visit.

This can also be reflected in Olena's expression.

"This is too luxurious..." From the moment she stepped into the threshold, she

never stopped muttering, "They actually made the Tibetan gold and blue stone

produced on the volcanic island into floor tiles to step on."

"Oh my God, wouldn't that armor be made of pure gold? It has no practical

value..."

Judgement is judgement, but everyone can tell that the envy in her eyes is

almost overflowing.

Obviously, these shining decorations have a great attraction to the

dragonborn. Not to mention the decline of the Okan family, even if a local

count is in its heyday, it is impossible to build such a holy palace on his

own.

Fortunately, the Dragon Girl deliberately controlled the volume, and did not

pass it to the butler's ears, otherwise Xia Fan felt that the style of the

envoy group would be lost.

Qianyan's expression is as plain as ever. Considering that she is a person who

has entered the Yongwang Palace, such a reaction is also reasonable.

"This is your room. It will be valid until tomorrow noon, whether it is

resting in it or overnight." The butler handed a golden key to Rutherin.

"There will be some other activities after the auction. You can Enjoy as much

as you want. If necessary, any butler in the Holy Palace can provide services

for you. Then please have fun."

"That's it?" Xia Fan asked with some curiosity, "You don't need to check

whether the principal of the guest is sufficient, or do you carry weapons?"

"You are too worried about it." The other party smiled, "All those who can

enter here are invited people. It doesn't matter if you don't shoot, but you

have to pay the price for fake shooting. As for making trouble in the Holy

Palace...unless he wants to be with the whole kingdom Enemy, otherwise I can’t

do such a crazy thing."

After the steward left, Ruther raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, "Strange, I

could only get the copper key before, but I didn't expect to get the gold this

time."

"Why, is gold rare?" Olena asked.

"It's the upper house in the Zhuangzi. There are only a dozen rooms in the

entire manor, and important guests like the Earl of Cleveland can be

assigned." There is another sentence Rutherin did not say. In the final

analysis, there are more dragon descendants and noble blood. It is no longer

as noble as before.

He knows that the butler sees people and divides the room, but what he does

not understand is who the butler is after. Xia Fan? People from poor places in

the East will have to be lowered by one level. Olena? Her image is really

good, but she is a thousand miles away from the nobleman... will it always be

this little girl?

Lassein swept a thousand words, and finally pressed the doubt into his heart.

A group of people walked into the auction hall and found that most of the

seats here were filled with about a hundred people, which is by no means large

in terms of scale. Moreover, guards wearing robes stood at the four corners of

the room, which was indeed not a good place to make trouble. UU reading

"That person is Archie Lumen." Lassein lifted his chin forward, "How are you

going to check him? Let me talk about it first. It's me who invited you in.

You can't do anything special here. \-Spells are also included. Those mages can

detect subtle fluctuations in magic power in the hall. Don't try to induce

them to answer your questions with spells."

Xia Fan followed his gaze and saw that among the people sitting in the front

row, there was a sturdy fat man. He was wearing a fine-quality silk robe, his

neck was wider than his head, and the jewel rings on his fingers were brighter

than the other, which reminded him involuntarily of an environmentalist who

likes to snap his fingers. "Go up and say hello, and tell me about the

assembly, right?"

At this point, Rutherin has not shied away. As a harbor defense officer, he

still has the basic social status. When introducing the ambassador to the

East, Azie didn't say much, he just got up and shook hands, he didn't even

want to say a polite remark.

It can be seen that although he is not a dragonborn, his posture is higher

than that of ordinary nobles.

Xia Fan didn't care, because shaking hands was his purpose.

Taking advantage of the time that Rutherin was chatting with other

acquaintances, he and Qian Yan walked out of the hall and came to a corner

where few people passed by. Then the little girl took off the black wide-

brimmed veil and let out Li, who had been lying on top of her head.
