"It's so beautiful." Rosetta, the Queen of Jewels, also smiled generously, drinking red wine while admiring the fireworks. Apparently, she also knew about the fireworks display in advance.
Palamedes sat down with a red face, as if he was the only one making such a fuss and it was rude. The shame he felt at this moment was simply indescribable.
Speaking of which, Father Sphinx really spared no expense in negotiating a business deal with the Queen of Jewels Rosetta. He even prepared for such a large-scale fireworks party. Setting off fireworks means burning money. This big thing crackles and explodes in the night sky.
Caliber fireworks, each one is very expensive. Dad arranged for everyone to have dinner in the crystal box of this restaurant tonight just to stage the most grand and expensive fireworks at this best viewing seat.
feast.
It's just to please a woman, a business negotiation partner.
They go to such great lengths to get a deal, how big is the deal they want to negotiate!?
"My dear lady, how do you feel?" Father Sphinx asked with a smile: "Are you satisfied with today's dinner?"
"Not bad." Ms. Rosetta seemed to have no resistance to fireworks at all. Her eyes never left the night sky where fireworks were constantly exploding, greedily taking in the colorful world of fireworks: "But, here
The scenery is still limited. It would be better if you could see the fireworks clearly from a closer distance."
"That couldn't be easier." Father Sphinx clapped his hands and summoned dozens of hotel staff: "The next step may be a little bumpy, so please sit tight."
The staff began to operate on the wall of the crystal box, fiddling with some kind of mechanism hidden on the crystal wall.
Along with the vibration, the entire crystal box began to move. The mechanism cleverly hidden in the wall of the box began to rotate, driving the entire room to move up to the top of the entire restaurant. The ceiling slowly opened like a flower blooming, and the crystal box
The wall also began to shrink downwards, turning into a waist-high guardrail.
The entire sky appeared outside the open crystal box. The night wind was bleak, blowing the slightly smoky air. The smell of gunpowder came along with the sound of fireworks explosions, but it was isolated to the greatest extent by some kind of barrier.
Vaguely smelled.
Paramedis swallowed his saliva and his feet began to tremble non-stop. Although protected by the barrier, the box had been completely opened, exposing everyone to thousands of feet in the air, without any obstruction. The Leopard Man
The soldier's fear of heights started to attack again.
"Are you afraid?" Father Sphinx came over and patted Palamedes on the shoulder: "Sit quietly and be patient a little longer."
"Well..." The Leopard Man warrior tried to focus on the fireworks exploding in the air, so that he would not have time to be afraid of heights.
Bang! Bang, bang, bang, bang! The fireworks show at this moment is at its peak. Hundreds of fireworks shells are exploding every second, and the brilliant brilliance dyes the night sky into colorful colors, and almost
The sound of a series of explosions also blinded everyone's ears. The dizzying dance of light and shadow made people hold their breath involuntarily, as if breathing randomly would disrupt the beautiful rhythm of the moment.
At this time, Rosetta, the gem queen, also stood up. She approached the edge of the guardrail and watched the beautiful scenery from a closer distance. Palamedes' eyes widened and he couldn't help but focus on Rosetta.
On Ms. Seta.
In fact, compared to this beautiful fireworks and meteor shower, Rosetta is the real beauty.
The colorful light reflected her delicate and smooth skin like ice jade, while the night wind gently blew her hair, making her long hair like a black waterfall looming into the night sky.
She didn't wear any hair accessories on her hair, she didn't need it. The light of the stars and the moon fell through her light and flying hair into everyone's eyes, and they were her hair accessories. She didn't wear makeup, she didn't need it.
The light of the fireworks reflected on her face, and the looming, rainbow-like light was her gorgeous makeup.
So beautiful, yet so heartwarming, heartbreaking, and sad.
With such stunning beauty, she must be extremely lonely in comparison. Because no man in the world can match her beauty---------compared to it, the mortals in the world are nothing but earthly beings.
Mud.
Just when Palamedes was excited, Ms. Rosetta turned around and took a look at the big cat.
The two people's eyes made contact with each other, and the scene was frozen in that moment.
Then comes darkness, complete, never-ending darkness and silence.
"What?!" Along with a feeling of dizziness, Palamedes came back to his senses and found himself in this darkness.
Big Cat had no idea what kind of place this place was. He seemed to have fallen into some kind of different dimension in an instant, floating in a dark and hazy world.
"Finally I can have a good chat with you, Mr. Palamedes." Ms. Rosetta's voice came from the darkness. Her figure also walked out of the darkness and came to the front of the Leopard Warrior.
"This...is this?" Palamedes looked around, although he knew it was of no use at all.
The whole world was frozen, there were no other people around, there was only haziness and darkness.
The brilliant fireworks that filled the night sky seemed to be frozen in a time and space that was both far away but extremely close. Their dazzling brightness was reduced to one-tenth of its original value, becoming just like the looming fireflies in the forest.
The burning and falling fireworks floated bit by bit at an astonishingly slow rate, falling towards the ground. The speed was so slow that one could barely tell that it was moving.
"Don't be alarmed, Mr. Palamedes. This is the [shady world] I created using magic." The Gem Queen explained with a smile, but her mouth did not move, and her voice was directly transmitted into the mind of the Leopard Warrior.
Medium: "This is an advanced form of telepathy. It can not only talk to you telepathically, but also speed up your physical perception time by thousands of times. Even if we talk here for an hour, the world outside will only pass by for a few seconds."
That's all."
"What, what? Why are you doing this?" Palamedes was shocked, thinking that he had been caught in the other party's illusion. As it turned out, this was indeed an illusion.
"Because I want to discuss something with you without interference." Ms. Rosetta said with a smile, but there was no malice in her smile: "First of all, I want to ask you------do you really not?"
Remember me?"
The big cat frowned in confusion, or he wanted to frown, but his body didn't move at all: "Have we...really met somewhere?"
The Gem Queen heard the doubts in the Leopard Warrior's words, and knew that what Big Cat said was true. She smiled again: "I was the one who patched up your crotch for you, grandma, how come you forgot all about it right away?"
?"
"You...what?!" Palamedes exclaimed: "You are the...grandma from that time?!"
Indeed, before the dinner started, Palamedes went for a walk on the coast. At that time, he met a woman whose handbag had been robbed. After helping the "grandma" take back her handbag, Palamedes ran so violently that
The crotch of his pants was also torn. Da Mao, who was worried about going to the dinner party without pants, accepted the proposal of the mysterious "grandma" and followed her to her slum residence and asked the "grandma" to mend his pants.
The woman was wearing a robe, even her face was covered tightly. The clothes were indeed the attire of Arab women, the attire of a widow, and the clothes showed that her husband died of natural causes.
Palamedes judged the age of the other party based on her clothing. He always thought that the woman was an old woman. She should be at least over fifty years old. Unexpectedly------!
Ms. Rosetta, Queen of Gemstones, smiled and explained: "I'm not lying to you. Today is indeed the wedding anniversary of my first husband and I. But it has been three hundred years since my first husband passed away."
The lifespan of elves is very long, much longer than that of humans. In Ms. Rosetta's life, she had more than one relationship and said goodbye to more than one lover.
Even so, she still treasures every relationship she has and the treasures left to her by her loved ones.
The Queen of Gems touched a small bracelet made of black jade in her hand, and then said: "Today is the anniversary of my first husband and I. I originally planned to walk on the beach without being disturbed, and then go to our
I wanted to remember my hometown. Unexpectedly, I encountered a robber and my husband's belongings were almost snatched away. Fortunately, you came to help and took my handbag back."
"That's just a piece of cake------"
"That's not true." The Queen of Gem said again, with suspicion in her eyes: "No one would help a stranger whom they have never met, and help to that extent. In order to chase the thief, you even ruined your own pants.
It's broken. That's a Horus brand suit, and it must be very expensive. This is such a coincidence. I have to suspect that this is a trap set up by you and the Sphinx, in order to build up my goodwill towards you.
."
When he said this, Palamedes was immediately stunned. It was indeed a coincidence, but the big cat didn't think so much at the time. He just wanted to help. He didn't expect that this would also arouse the suspicion of the Gem Queen, and also welcome
Come to such a question.
"However, it's so strange." Ms. Rosetta continued, "You said you have never seen me. There is no falsehood in your words. If this is a trap set up by you, everything will not make sense. So I
I really want to know, Mr. Palamedes, what were you thinking at that time? Would you really sacrifice yourself to help a stranger you have never met?"
"But I really didn't think about it that much at the time..." Palamedes replied depressedly.
"No." Ms. Rosetta shook her head. Her black pupils were examining the Leopard Warrior, as if she were looking through his soul through the big cat's eyes: "Your actions are very illogical. All of this is not right."
Possible. Unless there is sufficient reason, a person will never help others at the expense of his own interests."
She stared straight at Palamides and asked unceremoniously: "So, let me ask you again, Mr. Palamides. What on earth were you thinking at that time?"
