"Ask." Russell's tone was filled with deep weariness.
"After this incident, you didn't think of going over to apologize to Avril Lavigne's parents?"
Russell smiled bitterly and said: "I went, of course I went. On the day Avril's accident happened, I sent someone to their house to report the news. At that time, I was worried about the accident, so I never took the time. I waited a few days.
, when I went to Avril's house again, their house was already empty. I heard from neighbors that the family left overnight on the day of the accident, and I still don't understand why."
"That's really weird."
Ling Fei showed his symbolic innocent smile again, lazily spread his arms, and said slowly.
Russell still turned his back to them, as if he didn't hear them.
But I heard Ling Fei continue to say:
"Aren't you surprised? Since Avril is a genius that their family values extremely, and she also made a marriage contract with you, the young city lord of the city lord's mansion, for such an important family member, she died in such a strange way, and her family actually
Didn’t I go to the city lord’s mansion to ask you or the city lord?
That's all. The family was rushed to move before their daughter's body was recovered, and it was on the night of the incident. This is so unreasonable. I have never heard of parents who ignored the bodies of their children. This
Isn't it a bit unreasonable? What's more, the family that can enter into a marriage contract with your city lord's mansion will definitely not be a small family. Would they do such a dirty thing as moving the whole family in the middle of the night?" Ling Fei asked lightly.
Russell suddenly turned around, stared at Ling Fei with his eyes, and asked word by word: "What exactly do you want to say?"
………………
The lively hotel lobby was bustling with people. Perhaps because of the nightfall, the people in the city that never sleeps became active again. They toasted and drank, talked loudly, and talked about the lively things in Bobo City in recent days.
"Hey, have you heard? The Kunigir family is the leader in this auction. It is said that not only all their dragon scales were sold, but all of them were sold at sky-high prices. From my point of view, those who said Kunigir a while ago
The rumors about your family’s fate must be lies.”
"That's right, that's just one auction, and the Kunil family has gained both wealth and fame. I think, at least, the Kunil family will prosper for another hundred or two hundred years."
"Hey, who says it's not, but for us poor people, this is definitely a good thing. Among the big business houses in Popo City, the Kunil family has the lowest prices for daily necessities for us poor people.
And the quality is good. If the Kunier family collapses, I really don’t know where I can buy things in the future.”
Several people at the same table nodded in agreement, and suddenly one of them thought of something and smiled:
"Hey, our city lord showed up at this auction. Is this true or false?"
"Of course it's true!"
A tall and thick man at the table next to him heard someone asking here, raised his big bowl and drank it all in one gulp, grinning and saying:
"I saw it with my own eyes. The Lord of the City still maintained his demeanor as before. He defeated the terrifying Eunuch Xiao and Granny Leng with just one strike. He is an absolutely unparalleled powerhouse."
Someone nearby immediately shouted:
"Haha, I said Piccolo, you brag, the city lord is still as handsome as before. The last time the city lord showed up, it was more than a thousand years ago. At that time, your mother was not even born yet.
"
When the man heard this, he immediately became angry: "Rom, you are a bitch, are you looking for trouble? Although I have never seen the demeanor of the city lord back then, I have heard the bard sing it. I am lucky enough to see it today. Of course,
I can recognize him, but he doesn't look like you. I know that working as a porter at the dock is not promising or insightful."
Everyone listened and kept nodding, feeling that what Piccolo said made sense. In the Rhea continent, bards would compile songs about the nine great apostles and other famous figures in history.
It's natural that it's sung everywhere. In Popo City, everyone knows the songs of City Lord Van Helsing.
"Bah, what's wrong with you working as a porter at the dock? I have personally seen noble men like the Hasting family and the Ice family traveling and leaving. Don't think that just because you are a waiter in Turtle House, you have seen them.
What a big shot."
Roma retorted, not wanting to be outdone.
Suddenly a lazy voice interjected, "Oh, I didn't expect that both the Hasting family and the Ice family participated in this auction. But, brother, I think such aristocratic masters usually have their own carriages and horses, how could they come from this auction?"
Passing through the public pier, are you lying?"
When Rom heard that his words were doubted, he immediately stood up and shouted:
"That little turtle is talking nonsense here and dares to question..."
He didn't finish his words, but there was a look of panic on his face. He saw two people slowly walking out of the back hall. The young man in front had purple hair and a shawl, and was wearing luxurious clothes. He looked at him with a smile, and behind him
Although the people are simply dressed, they give people an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Roman looked at the young man's luxurious clothes and couldn't help but secretly said that it was bad luck. The Russell Hotel was a famous haunt for poor people in the city. The people who came here to stay and drink came from all walks of life. There were all kinds of people, except the rich.
People, that's why they, low-status people, dare to get drunk here and make comments about those nobles.
Even though they are all big and rough, they seem to have no brains, but they know very well in their hearts that if they say bad things about others behind their back, there will naturally be no trouble, but if they say it in person, it will be miserable and offended.
My noble lord, that is no small matter.
The clothes of the two people in front of him clearly did not belong to their circle of poor people. He felt a little regretful in his heart. He wanted to pretend to be a grandson, shut up and get away with it, but the young man continued to ask reluctantly.
:
"Hey, let me tell you, what you just said was as if you saw it with your own eyes. Why are you so dumb now? Were you really bragging just now?"
The noisy sound in the hall just now became unusually quiet because of the appearance of this purple-haired young man who was obviously not from their group. Everyone looked at Ling Fei and then at Rom, their eyes full of gloating, but they were with him.
Piccolo, who was the most quarrelsome, glanced at Roma sympathetically, lowered himself, and started drinking.
Roman's face turned red, he looked at his companions around him, then at the young man's joking smile, he swallowed and said:
