Chapter 68 Bois de Boulogne

 December 31, Paris, France.

I remember that afternoon in Paris, the hot air balloon floated across most of Paris with the wind.

It was a large balloon with a height of 17 meters and a diameter of 12.5 meters made by the Montgolfier brothers. The balloon was extremely beautifully decorated and also had the emblem of the French royal family, which is a symbol of the royal family. Louis XVI led Queen Mary and

Civil and military officials from all over the dynasty came to the Palace of Versailles, ready to appreciate this great feat of creation.

Joseph Montgolfier put a rooster, a duck and a sheep in a basket and hung them under the balloon. After three cannon shots, the hot-air balloon took off and climbed to an altitude of more than 500 meters. 8

Minutes later, the flying balloon landed in a farmland 3.2 kilometers away. Except for a slight injury to the rooster's wings, the sheep and ducks were all safe.

Louis XVI was so happy that he named the hot air balloon Montgolfier Balloon. On November 21 of the same year, two young scientists, F.P. Rozier and Darlande, took the Montgolfier Balloon and floated over Paris safely for 25 minutes.

It landed about 8.9 kilometers away from the take-off point. This is the first time humans have launched into space.

I remember that afternoon in Paris, the Place de la Concorde was full of people, the atmosphere was so jubilant and exciting, King Louis XVI was led to the guillotine, and his head fell to the ground amidst the cheers of the people.

That was the sign of the establishment of the "First French Republic". Louis XVI's shouting "I died innocent. I forgive my enemies, I hope my blood can appease the anger of God" seems to be of no avail.

I also remember that afternoon in Paris, when she sealed a princess with her own blood. The princess turned into a vampire but was unwilling to harm her people. She placed the princess deep in the jungle to prevent anyone with intentions from coming.

Go ahead and bother.

And today, as the people in Paris were making final preparations for the New Year, a rare pure black carriage was pulled by four black horses. The driver drove quickly towards the Bois de Boulogne.

If you look closely, you can see that the four black horses have slender limbs, shiny black horses, and no mottled colors. They are obviously expensive Arabian horses. And these four horses are almost the same height and short, which is even more rare. They are not used to seeing them on the road.

After getting out of the sports car, the Parisians on vacation in the Bois de Boulogne suddenly saw a scene in a fairy tale. Their eyes lit up and they were all amazed.

"Commissioner Bu, where are we going?" Andrea looked at the large bushes of heather in bloom outside.

The sun had already set at this moment, and the forest was completely dark. Without light, the road could not be seen at all, but the driver did not slow down at all. He looked like an off-road racer, and there was no way to block this road with sharp bends everywhere.

Due to his winning skills, the carriage turned sharply several times and almost crashed into a thick oak tree, but the coachman always pulled the reins just right and avoided the huge carriage.

In the complete silence, the horses' hooves kept trampling on the road, and the sound of falling leaves and mud showed that the carriage had deviated from the road.

Hot air spurted out from the horse's nose, and bursts of white smoke emerged in the cool night breeze.

"According to your report...it seems that the place of the accident was in France." Bu Shuchang jumped over the door curtain and looked at the increasingly dark outside.

"That's the information given by my friend."

"Senior's friend?"

Andrea took a deep breath from her cigar: "I have graduated many years ago. Although I am still doing college things, compared with young people like you, I have long lost the ability to speak. It's like basketball.

Athletes who have passed their peak period will no longer be the leaders of the team. They may be reduced to hard labor and will never be able to achieve their previous glory."

Bu Shuchang opened the window. It wasn't that she hated the smell of cigarette smoke, but it was rather stuffy in this small carriage filled with smoke.

"Isn't James always at his peak?" Bu Shuchang joked.

"He is old, already old, and I am old too. It's time for me to get married and have children with my fiancée," Andrea said.

"So this is your last mission, senior?" Bu Shuchang asked, "I don't think you are the kind of person who can calm down."

"Don't say that, maybe after having a baby I will devote myself to being a perfect dad." Andrea smiled hoarsely.

"I hope nothing serious will happen."

"I also hope that I will invite you to the wedding."

"If possible, I would like to bring someone with me to your wedding." Bu Shuchang smiled brightly.

"Boyfriend?" Andrea was a little surprised. He had worked with Bu Shuchang many times, but he had never heard rumors that this beautiful woman officially had a boyfriend.

"Maybe." Bu Shuchang shrugged, "It's just that he is too timid. It would be nice if he was braver."

Andrea smiled, revealing her gums full of tea stains.

"Lian, please hurry up." Bu Shuchang knocked on the car and said this in French.

The coachman raised his whip again.

"Do you know Louis XVI?" Bu Shuchang asked.

"The last king of the Bourbon dynasty had a lot of collusion with foreign forces and hid the secret letters of collusion in a secret cabinet, locked with his own carefully crafted locks. However, during the French Revolution, the locksmith he once trusted the most

He was betrayed by Man, and then aroused the anger of the French people, and finally died on the guillotine." Andrea's voice was thick and deep, and he had a lot of research on French history.

"Who is the wife of King Louis XVI?" Bu Shuchang asked again.

"Queen Marie Marie Antoinette, the fifteenth child of Francis I, Holy Roman Emperor, and Maria Theresa, Archduke of Austria, Queen of Bohemia and Hungary, is said to be a beauty.

Andrea was a little confused, "What does this have to do with us coming here? We also need to use the power of the Paris Secret Party."

Bu Shuchang looked directly into Andrea's eyes: "How many children do they have?"

"Three... are they related?" Andrea asked subconsciously.

"Two of them were boys, but they died miserably, and the eldest daughter, Princess Mary, is said to have been raped by mobs during the French Revolution, but no one knows whether this is the truth."

Andrea shut her mouth. He didn't want to be embarrassed because of his ignorance, but he vaguely guessed the truth.

"Marie Theresa." Bu Shuchang said, "She is not dead, she is even alive now. In July 2020, I accepted the second commissioner assignment from the academy and went to investigate monsters near Burgundy, France.

There was a wounding incident, and I found her in the underground ruins of a certain castle."

Andrea raised her eyebrows in surprise. This was like saying that Stonehenge in England and Colossus in Chile were actually the same colossus. How old was that? 1789, 233 years from now, okay,

It will be 2023 soon, which is exactly 234 years. She has lived for 234 years?

How is this possible?

"She became a vampire. She gained the ability to live forever. At the same time, for unknown reasons, she absorbed the vampire and inherited the vampire's inspiration." Bu Shuchang smiled.

So that’s it, a vampire? But the anti-absorption thing is still hard for him to accept.

"Although she became a vampire, she has not harmed anyone. To be precise, she has been suppressing her urge to suck blood."
