Chapter 203 The beginning of the turning point(1/3)

Karen originally thought that the negotiation would be over by evening, but what he didn't expect was that the people on both sides of the negotiating table had no intention of turning off the flames and continued to argue.

Then, the dining car was pushed in, and the waiter delivered the simple meal to the negotiation table of both parties. The negotiators from both sides began to eat while continuing to argue.

From the original spit flying, it turned into the collision of food residues in the mouth;

The forks and spoons in his hands were like knives and swords, waving towards the opposite side from a distance;

His face was red and his ears were red, and he was chewing vigorously, as if he was swallowing the opponent's flesh and blood alive.

However, this was a hardship for Karen and others, because no one sent them meals, and they only had breakfast today. Even if they had a full breakfast, they would not be able to last until the night.

He was hungry and had no interest in continuing to watch no matter how lively the argument was. Karen could clearly feel the anxiety coming from the two women beside him.

But there is no way. When you come down, you will find that this floor is closed. You can't call for food to be brought up by yourself, let alone leave this floor to find food by yourself.

Where the responsibilities are, where the rules are, where the tasks are, there are too many restrictive factors, so I can only take the time to go to the bathroom.

However, Karen discovered an anomaly, that is, many people around her were going to the toilet much more frequently.

Naturally, the people sitting below were not only Karen, Fanny, and the three of them, but also the negotiation assistants from both churches, those who took notes, provided suggestions, and provided information.

After the passenger ship was bombed, Delius rescued a group of people accompanying him ashore, only a dozen of them, but a delegation from the Palmyres Church had already entered York City, and they were now included

Be part of the delegation..

The anomaly among the anomalies is that those who go to the toilet more frequently are basically the priests of the Cult of Kosmos sitting below.

Karen stood up and motioned to Fanni and Bibin beside him to go to the bathroom.

The bathroom is just around the corner to the right of the conference hall. When Karen walked in, she found that someone was handing out bread and bags of milk at the door of the bathroom. Many people were standing here gobbling them down because they had to rush back.

Being away for too long will have bad consequences. If when you leave, your higher-ups suddenly have a problem and ask you to provide answers but you are not there, this would be a sin.

However, depending on the situation, the people distributing bread and bags of milk should know each other personally.

But Karen didn't know them, because Karen only appeared here on a mission, and her social circle couldn't spread here at all. In fact, the two sides were not in the same system.

The other person's food may also be rationed, and he may only give it to people he knows.

However, Karen was still prepared to take the initiative to ask for it.

After all, what’s the problem if it’s not a department or a system?

Aren’t we all loyal believers of the God of Order? Believers in the world are one family!

It was a real loss to go hungry for the sake of saving face and modesty. In addition, Karen also had to consider preparing some food for the two ladies around him whose stomachs had begun to growl.

However, before Karen could take the initiative to speak, a hand from the side handed over a large piece of bread and a bag of milk.

Karen reached out to catch it and turned to look at the man. It turned out to be Leon, the grandson of the chief bishop of York City.

Is it him?

At this moment, Karen was a little embarrassed, but it was only for a moment. The next moment, he started to bite the bread, then used his teeth to bite a small opening in the milk bag, and took a big mouthful of milk to help him swallow.

"Hey, I don't know you." Leon looked at Karen and smiled, "Which department are you in?"

"I am from the Whip of Order."

"Oh, the Whips of Order's personal security personnel?"

Obviously, Leon is aware of the workflow of Whip of Order.

At this time, only the personal security personnel can appear openly, and the rest can only hide in the dark for protection.

"Well, yes."

"Leon, I heard that Team Neo is responsible for this security mission."

A young priest next to him said while washing his hands. It can be seen from the way he spoke to Leon that his position may not be high, but his status is definitely not low.

Because the other priests immediately thanked Leon after taking the milk bread from his hands, without taking the initiative to speak, and stood aside and swallowed quickly, firstly because of time constraints, and secondly because everyone was aware of the status gap between them.

"Lauré, what happened to Neo's team?" Leon asked.

"Oh, isn't it being said outside that Miss Ophelia boarded the ship and returned with a pregnant belly?"

As he spoke, Laurel reached out and pulled out a tissue from his side, wiping his hands while looking at Karen who was eating, and continued:

"This one is pretty good-looking, haha, is it you?"

Only the close security team can have close contact with the protected target, and there are only so many people in a team, so the close security team generally does not change the personnel configuration.

The most important thing is that Karen is very handsome, even for a man.

Just like men like beautiful women, women will definitely be more in love with handsome men, and love at first sight in a short period of time is often based on good looks.

Upon hearing this, Leon took a step sideways and looked at Karen seriously.

Karen swallowed the bread in his mouth and smiled: "I don't know how the rumors spread."

"Haha, your team didn't spread the news yourself, otherwise who would know about it?" Laurel sneered.

What Laurey said was actually correct. Even Karen himself felt that the rumor was spread deliberately by the captain and others in order to give their team a good reputation so that they could continue to monopolize this kind of security mission, which was more money and less trouble.

For the senior officials, it is a situation they want to see if the team of foreign envoys can be received safely and comfortably. If they even fall in love, it will definitely be more comfortable.

"I said, Leon, do you want to have a duel with him, hahaha." Laurel teased.

Everyone in the circle knew that Leon, as the grandson of the chief bishop of York City, might have represented the Church of Kosmos in marriage with Darkmoon Island. This was the direction the wind was blowing at the time.

One of the reasons why rumors are so powerful and spread by so many people is that after Ophelia returned to Darkmoon Island, Darkmoon Island treated the marriage matter coldly. This phenomenon is almost nothing more than a rumor.

The best evidence of authenticity.

Maybe, even the captain who spread the rumors didn't expect things to develop like this... I was just hyping up the scandal to gain popularity, how come you still cooperated with it?

Therefore, to a certain extent, there is indeed a natural contradiction between Karen and Leon.

Although Karen knows that this is not the case, the matter of "wearing a hat" has never been about facts. When outsiders think you have a colored hat on your head, it no longer matters whether you really have a hat on your head.

Already.

Laurel looked like he was watching a show and was deliberately trying to get angry. Karen felt that either he had a very good relationship with Leon, or he had a very bad relationship with Leon, which was a contradiction in itself.

At this time, Leon put his hand on Karen's shoulder and asked: "So, is it you?"

Karen sighed inwardly and replied again: "That's not true."

Leon said: "Whether this is true or not, it no longer matters."

Karen took another bite of bread and said nothing.

"Anyway, thank you."

"Um?"

Leon hugged Karen's shoulders directly: "Thank you for helping me solve a big trouble."

"Haha." Laurel also laughed, changing his previous tone of voice, "You don't know how anxious he was when he knew that he was going to be married. Even Darkmoon Island didn't seem to be so eager to marry.

If it weren’t for these rumors spreading so much, his grandfather would have let him visit Darkmoon Island in person.”

Leon said matter-of-factly: "Nonsense, who is willing to accept this marriage arrangement?"

"This is really just a rumor," Karen said.

But this matter really cannot be said to have nothing to do with me. To a certain extent, it is because the existence of my "tribe" has affected Dark Moon Island's expectations for marriage.

"Okay, it doesn't matter to me if it's true or false. I value my marital happiness more than some so-called rumors. My dream marriage life is not to lie on the same bed with my wife who represents different interests.

A bed.

Then when my wife gets pregnant, I have to consider whether to maximize my interests by taking my surname or hers."

Laurel laughed and said: "Leon wants to pursue his own happiness, just like in a love novel."

"By the way, what's your name?" Leon asked.

"Karen, Karen Silva."

"Okay, Karen, let's hang out together when we have the chance in the future."

"Okay." Karen nodded, finished the last bit of bread in his hand, and then asked Leon: "Well, is there any more bread?"

"Oh, of course, there are some more. Aren't you full?"

"I have two companions sitting inside."

"Haha, it seems you have no experience."

Leon took out a few pieces of bread and a few bags of milk from the box next to him and handed them to Karen, who put them into his clothes.

"I'm going back to the conference room first. Thank you for the bread and milk."

"Don't be so polite."

Karen returned to the conference room, sat down, and then secretly handed the bread and milk to the two women beside him. The two women were stunned for a moment, then put the milk and bread into their clothes and went out pretending to go to the bathroom.

Already.

Above, the negotiations were still going on, and several people's voices had become hoarse, but the hoarse roar seemed more powerful.

Karen's attention was no longer on it. He found that Leon and Laure hadn't come back yet. Obviously, although such young men were also included in the negotiating delegation, they had greater autonomy, unlike others.
To be continued...
