"Boss Russell, excuse me for asking one more question?"
"Ask." Russell's tone was deeply tired.
"After this incident, you didn't think about going to apologize to Avril's parents?"
Russell wryly smiled and said: "I did, of course I did. On the day Avril Lavigne's accident happened, I sent someone to report to their house. At that time, because I was worried about the accident, I didn't take the time to come. Wait for me in a few days. , When I went to Avril Lavigne's house again, their house was already empty. I heard from the neighbors that their 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, spread his arms lazily, and said slowly.
Russell still turned his back to them, as if he didn't hear them.
But Ling Fei continued to say:
"Aren't you surprised? Since Avril is a genius that their family values very much, and she has made a marriage contract with you, the young city lord of the city lord's mansion, such an important family member, she died so strangely, her family unexpectedly Didn't go to the city lord's mansion to ask you or the city lord?
That's all, the whole family was in a hurry to move before the daughter's bones were collected, and it was the night when the incident happened. Somewhat unreasonable, right? 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 the dirty thing of moving their family in the middle of the night? "Ling Fei asked lightly.
Russell turned around suddenly, fixed his eyes on Ling Fei, and asked word by word: "What exactly do you want to say?"
………
The bustling hotel lobby was buzzing 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 more lively things in Popo City in recent days.
"Hey, have you heard that the Kunigir family is the leader in this auction. It is said that not only all of their dragon scales were sold, but all of them were sold at sky-high prices. In my opinion, those who said that the Kunigir If the Er family fails, the rumors must be deceiving."
"That's right, that's right, just one auction, and the Kunier family has acquired both wealth and fame. In my opinion, at least, the Kunier family will prosper for another hundred or two hundred years."
"Hey, who said no, but for us poor people, this is definitely a good thing. Among the big business houses in Popo City, the Kunier family has the lowest prices for our poor people's daily necessities. And the quality is good, if the Kunier family collapses, I really don't know where to buy things in the future."
Several people at the same table nodded in sympathy, and suddenly one of them thought of something and said with a smile:
"Hey, speaking of this auction, our city lord has appeared, is this true or false?"
At the next table, a man of five big and three rough heard someone from here, raised a big bowl and drank it in one gulp, grinning and said:
"I've seen it with my own eyes. The city lord still has the same demeanor as before. He defeated the terrifying Eunuch Laughing and Granny Leng with a single strike. He is an absolute powerhouse."
Immediately there was booing from the side:
"Haha, I said Piccolo, you can brag, don't let the city lord lose his style. 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 bastard, are you looking for trouble? Although I haven't seen the demeanor of the city lord back then, I have heard it sung by bards. I am lucky to see you today. Of course I can recognize it, so I don’t look like you, so I know that being a porter at the dock is not promising and knowledgeable.”
Everyone listened and nodded, thinking that what Piccolo said made sense. In Rhea Continent, like the Nine Great Apostles, who are famous in history, bards would make their appearances and stories into ballads. It was sung everywhere. Naturally, in Popo City, everyone knew the ballad of the city lord, Van Helsing.
"Hey, what's the matter with you working as a porter at the pier? I have personally seen nobles like the Hastings and the Ice clan go out and leave. Don't think that you are a waiter in the Turtle Tower, just think that you have seen them." What a big shot."
Rom retorted not to be outdone.
Suddenly a lazy voice interjected, "Oh, I didn't expect both the Hastings and the Ice Clan to participate in this auction, but brother, I think this kind of aristocratic lord usually has his own carriages and horses, how could he come from The public pier passes, are you not lying?"
When Rom heard that his words were doubted, he immediately stood up and shouted:
"That turtle~www.mtlnovel.com~ is talking nonsense here, dare to question the old..."
He didn't finish his sentence, but there was a look of panic on his face. He saw two people walking out of the back hall slowly. The young man with purple hair in front of him was wearing luxurious clothes and looked at him with a pleasant smile. Although the people dressed plainly, they gave people an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Looking at the young man's luxurious clothes, Rom couldn't help calling it bad luck. The Russell Hotel is a famous haunt of poor ghosts in Popau City. The people who come here to stay and drink are all kinds of people. People, that's why these lowly people dare to criticize those nobles here by drinking madly.
Don't look at them all, they seem to have no brains, but they are very clear in their hearts. If they speak ill of others behind their backs, then naturally there will be no trouble, but if they speak face to face, it will be miserable and offended. That is no small matter, my lord.
And the clothes of the two in front of him obviously don't belong to their circle of poor ghosts, he felt a little regretful in his heart, he wanted to pretend to be a grandson, keep his mouth shut, and get away with it, but he couldn't, but the young man continued to ask :
"Hey, let me tell you, what you said just now is as if you saw it with your own eyes. Why are you acting dumb now? Could it be that you were really bragging just now?"
The noisy voice in the hall just now also became abnormally 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 were full of gloating, but they were with him Piccolo, who was the fiercest in the fight, gave Rom a sympathetic look, bent down, and drank his head sullenly.
Rom's face turned red, he looked at his companions around him, then at the young man's playful smile, swallowed and said:
