The night is drooping, and today’s night is clear, and you can see the spoon-like Big Dipper shining brightly on the sky. The sky full of stars hung upside down, like endless gems rolling down on the black flannel, shining light enough to reflect the hearts of flowers.
A speed car with the Beskard family crest was driving on Golden Wing Street, and the destination was Twilight Bar.
Allen sat in the car.
Jin Liancheng will be the host tonight, and some of their old friends who have been away for years have a small gathering there. Allen looked at the window of the speeding car, the glass on the window reflected the colorful lights of the city. Babylon is as prosperous as it used to be, even if the situation on the surface is turbulent, there is still singing and dancing on this floating island. Perhaps in the hearts of the nobles of this floating island, they never thought about what the people on the surface could do.
Even if the surface is caught in the flames of war, the flames are still farther away from the high Babylon.
"What are you thinking?" Lucy asked next to her. The girl was wearing a simple little dress and a little cloak made of lace and fabric on her shoulders. Although this is the most popular dress style, due to the problem of ready-to-wear, there are obviously some slight inconsistencies with Lucy's body.
Lucy didn't care about this problem, even with the eyesight of a royal lady, he could at least spot no less than ten faults in this dress.
Allen said casually: "Thinking about what kind of person my father is."
"I don't know what kind of person your father is, but I know very well the virtue of the old man in my family." Lucy said with a stern finger: "Domineering, domineering, you have to listen to him. I talk all day long. What is the responsibility of the royal family, but I never thought that those things are what I want?"
Allen patted her hand and said: "But he loves you. Look, he controls you, doesn't it mean that he cares about you? In contrast, I have never heard my father say even a word."
Lucy was speechless for a moment.
The twilight bar arrived in a blink of an eye, and the speeding car stopped in front of the door of the bar. Allen got off the car and opened the door for Lucy: "Come on, let me introduce two friends to you."
Jin Liancheng packed a quiet seat in the bar, and he and Adele arrived early. When Ellen and the two arrived, the son of the eastern nobleman was laughing with a pair of beautiful women in a low voice, while Adele was playing tarot cards by himself. Seeing Ellen, Jin Liancheng smiled and sent the two beauties away. The two girls left him a note with the contact information on it, but Jin Liancheng threw it aside without looking at it.
Allen shook his head and said, "I bet that there are not a hundred or eighty girls crying for Liancheng."
Jin Liancheng laughed and said, "With your words, you can tell that our Master Allen is still a rookie in love."
"In other words, you are the old bird Luo?" Adele rolled her eyes.
"I'm not talented, there are dozens of beauties I know, which is considered some experience." Jin Liancheng smiled to Allen: "Looking at our brotherhood, I will teach you a little experience, and you won't be fooled. Don’t believe these girls who linger in the twilight, even if they behave innocently and holy. In their list of friends, it’s not normal that there are not ten or eight boyfriends."
Allen shook his head and laughed, and introduced Lucy: "This is Jin Liancheng, my good friend. His house sells perfume. If you like it, let him send ten or eight bottles. It's okay to change the spray every day. ."
Jin Liancheng smiled and said, "Allen is too exaggerated."
When Ellen turned to Adele, the latter stood up and said: "I am Adele. Explain in advance that I will compete with you for Ellen!"
Lucy responded stiffly: "Bring your horse here."
The two girls with flamboyant personalities got together, and it really made Allen a headache, while Jin Liancheng cast a gleeful look at him. Fortunately, the waiter brought drinks, and Jin Liancheng filled the wine glasses for several people and toasted: "This glass to Alan, to celebrate his return from the chaotic battlefield without missing arms or legs. Just wait for Leon to come back, let's The four of them reunited again."
After a toast, Allen said, "I'm afraid I will have to separate again after the short gathering. When I come back this time, I plan to form a hunting group, and I should do something for the family."
"At least you have to wait for Leon to return before you can leave." Jin Liancheng said.
Allen nodded and asked, "What is going on with Leon?"
"I don't know much." Jin Liancheng sighed softly, "But his situation should not be so good. According to some information channels of their William's house, it seems that Leon should be with him in Outland. The brothers broke up, and there was even a war. I don’t know if the kid can come back safely."
"The William's family selected the colonial stars for their three brothers to have rich resources, and the natives of the planets are not high in combat power. This is also the advantage of the rich. They can always get planets with ideal resources. However, the entire planet must be completely colonized. It can’t be done in 30 to 50 years, and the family needs to continue to invest resources. So the three Leon brothers said that they were going on an expedition, but they were actually going to experience the points of the mixed family. There would be no major crisis. , But I heard that before Paul's expedition, Diego gave him a good magic weapon from his teacher. This shows that he is going to deal with Leon..."
"A mere hand of magic weapon should not defeat Leon." Allen said.
"I think so too." Jin Liancheng smiled bitterly: "But Paul was unexpectedly mean. He made tricks in Leon's strategic intelligence and put Leon in danger. It was Leon who used encrypted signals on the battlefield. Send me a text message to tell me the truth. And remind us that if he doesn’t come back, then Paul, after returning to Earth, might act on us because of his relationship. Leon let us be careful, in After that, I didn't hear anything from him."
Allen's eyes narrowed slightly. Although he didn't say anything, the wine glass in front of him suddenly cracked slightly.
Jin Liancheng saw nothing but Quan Dang beckoned to the waiter to change the cup.
Adele who was next to him coughed lightly, and changed the subject: "Even Leon has to go to the battlefield. Young Master Jin seems to be busy, just attending receptions and salons. It's a long-sleeved dance."
"That's also a battlefield, but the nature is different." Jin Liancheng straightened up slightly and said, "But soon, I have to leave Babylon for a while."
"Why, are you finally leaving for the expedition?" Adele raised her eyebrows.
"It sounds like you want me to go to the battlefield." Jin Liancheng smiled and said, "Unfortunately, it can't be as your lady wants. I'm not going to the outside world, but the surface."
"The surface?"
Jin Liancheng smiled bitterly: "It's not because of Freedom Gate and sports that some of our family's factories on the surface have been affected. The family decided to move those factories in the district, and I need to go over and take care of it."
Adele said in sympathy: "It's all thanks to this movement. Our annual income has dropped a lot. The Federation is also the case. Wouldn't it be solved by sending troops to suppress it at the beginning."
Her thoughts represent the minds of most of the inhabitants of Babylon.
Jin Liancheng leaned his body on the chair and said with a smile: "How can it be so simple, Miss Adele. Think about it, the establishment of Freedom Gate and the announcements of the districts almost all happened in ten days. To launch such a large-scale campaign in a short period of time, it is impossible without advance preparation. Then the question is, with the federal intelligence network, do you think the Federation will not get news before the campaign begins?"
Allen replied for Adele: "In other words, do you think there are some political factors in it?"
"Isn't it? If it wasn't for the news being intercepted by some big shots, how could the Federation wait until the movement broke out before the Federation reacted." Jin Liancheng shook his head: "But these things are too far away from us, unless who of you plans to participate in politics? "
Allen smiled and said, "I'm not interested in this. I just want to do something for my grandpa. As for in the future, I can have my own foundation and work and live with the people around me, which is pretty good."
Adele shook her head and said, "You don't need to say that you know it is impossible. I don't think Mr. Horn will let you live such a poetic life."
She specifically emphasized the word "poet".
Allen laughed: "Even if it's impossible, think about it."
He suddenly felt something and looked out of the lounge. A figure appeared under the light, and Allen's gaze fell on a handsome face. The man did not expect that Allen would find himself like a prophet. First he was startled and then smiled. He didn't know that Allen had formed the habit of paying attention to the changes around him all the time after Windsor Bello's guidance.
Spread its own source power like a spider web ~EbookFREE.me~ to form a web of perception. This person just entered the edge of this perceptual network, and the source of his body caused Allen's induction. With Allen's current source strength, the sensing network only covers a range of less than ten meters in diameter. If it is a powerful person like Windsor Bello, her perception can even cover more than half of Babylon, and the sensitivity of perception can be adjusted as needed.
For Windsor Bello, there is basically no sneak attack.
This is a teenager about the same age as Allen and the others, and his light brown hair is combed back to make him look a little mature. There was a faint smile in the azure eyes, which made him, who was originally handsome and sunny, looked more like a spring breeze. He didn't know if it was intentional or unintentional, as if he hadn't seen Alan and Jin Liancheng, he looked at Adele in the booth and said, "Isn't this Miss Adele from the Morsen family?"
Then seeing Lucy, her eyes lit up again, and she exclaimed a little exaggeratedly: "Forgive me for my blindness, which family daughter is this beautiful lady?"
Allen glanced at Jin Liancheng, secretly said, where is this amorous boy who popped out?
