Chapter 374 Accident(1/2)

There were only two people at this dinner, one was Sid.

The other one is Albert Wallenstein.

The purpose of the dinner is also very clear, which is to let the two young people get in touch to facilitate... marriage.

Albert is undoubtedly a young talent. He is a human being in his thirties, level 5, quick and capable, has a steady and down-to-earth personality, and is not indulged in pleasure. He is recognized as a good boy in the aristocratic circle.

The same is true for Sid. Although she is a woman and Duke Walder has given her a lot of help, being able to control two large armies in her thirties is still an amazing achievement.

Moreover, as we all know, neither of them is married.

Therefore, when Baron Wallenstein proposed marriage to Duke Walder, although Duke Walder did not agree directly, he did not reject it outright.

This so-called marriage is, of course, about whether the normative law is passed or not. If two young people get married, Duke Walder will naturally support it.

If it fails, then he will naturally choose to oppose it. After all, if he supports it, although there are promised benefits, it will also have an inevitable impact on the existing power of the Conservative Party.

The dinner was not sumptuous, not large in quantity, but very exquisite.

Roasted Jerusalem artichokes are placed on a glass plate, with glass cups filled with honey wine.

Mastodon barbecue steak, the meat is taken from the mastodon when it is still alive, served with a sauce made of onions and fennel, and decorated with gooseberries, with chopped lemon and salt on the side.

Thinly sliced ​​goat leg meat, fried with bamboo shoots and basil.

Carefully cooked seaweed and tender turtle eggs are placed in a huge turtle shell.

For dessert, there are walnuts, a carefully carved fruit basket, and a stack of sliced ​​melons.

Sid wore a flimsy and gorgeous evening dress, exposing his swan-like neck and beautiful upper chest. Sid walked into the completely transparent restaurant made of glass.

The entire restaurant has been booked. Although this is a sky garden, where dignitaries and wealthy businessmen gather, it is very difficult to book a table here. You need to spend a lot of money and make a reservation in advance.

But these two are the real second generation of the empire. Even in the Sky Garden, Sid and Albert are the top people. It is not difficult for them to book the venue.

The entire glass restaurant is suspended in the air, and everything around it is made of glass, including the floor, seats, dining tables, corridors, tableware, everything is transparent.

Magic light spots like fireflies are surrounding it. Under the night sky, the transparent restaurant presents a dreamlike look under the spiral staircase.

Here, lower your head, there are fireworks in the world.

Looking up, the sky is filled with stars.

"It's so beautiful." Standing in the restaurant, Albert, dressed in formal clothes, looked down at the entire Glow City through the transparent floor under his feet.

The scene below is a skyscraper city in the dark, with numerous buildings and busy traffic. Even at night, the crowds have not decreased at all, they are still bustling and running around.

This is a city that never sleeps. Under the brilliant lights, there is no difference between day and night. Work will never stop. The city will never rest, but it is precisely because of this that the city is a city.

But no matter what the people below are like, such splendor is indeed extremely beautiful, so the name here is "Glow City".

Albert was intoxicated by the charm of the scenery, but saw that Sid beside him had no reaction.

"Don't you think so?" he asked Sid.

As for Sid?

Of course she doesn't think so.

She couldn't see the bright lights or the stars in the sky. She could only see the ants below, attracted to the city by the candy balls, struggling to earn what they thought was a lot, but in fact it was not worth mentioning.

money, youth, vitality, and health, and together we built this glorious city.

"...There's nothing to see." Sid replied, sitting on the transparent chair: "Let's eat."

Albert didn't think there was anything strange about this attitude. He just invited Sid to sit on the other side and said with a smile: "Okay, let's eat. By the way, last time I..."

Dinner has just started.

————————

On the other side of the hanging garden.

The sky garden is divided into dozens of different buildings, and the glass suspended restaurant is just one of them. That is the place that was reserved today, and the remaining dozens of buildings are still operating normally.

But just a few minutes ago, the entire sky garden's guards on duty that day had been collectively dismissed. Before being dismissed, they had one last task, which was to use their lives to protect the absolute safety and investigation of the current sky garden.

More than five level 8 experts have been urgently dispatched here.

Because... the hanging garden is dead.

A big shot, one of the security directors of the Sky Garden, greeted the guests while walking quickly through the joyful aristocratic ball:

"Hello, Count Anpa, I wish you a good time. Your favorite pomegranate wine has been prepared for you. Please enjoy it." This high-level professional greeted everyone with a smile on his face.

The nobles chatted.

"Mrs. Shelley, there is a quieter place over there. I have ordered people to prepare chess for you, as well as the person who accompanied you last time. This place is too noisy. You may not like these people." He clearly remembered.

Talking to everyone about each guest's specific preferences and the time they last came was a breeze.

It's completely impossible to tell that his skills have been activated for a long time...

He quietly shuttles around various places, relying on his own perception to try to find the murderer. He is very confident in his own perception, and even a killer in the dark like Anonymous 8 cannot approach him silently.

But...no, not one! Impossible! Someone can commit a crime under his nose, but he can't find him at all!

The former security chief felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave and felt chills all over. Although he still maintained a warm smile on his face, greeting various nobles and chatting about household chores and fun activities, he knew that his back had been

Soaked in sweat.

Suddenly, a waiter came over, patted him on the shoulder, whispered a few words to him, and hurriedly backed away.

"Haha, everyone, there is a small situation. I have to deal with it. I will leave first. I wish you all a happy evening." Gordon bowed and left.

The moment he turned around, he almost couldn't hold back his murderous intent, and the anger in his heart almost burst out in the living room... But fortunately, he held it back and couldn't disturb the guests, that's for sure.

The guests here are all either rich or noble, and they care most about reputation.

However, the waiter just now told him a piece of news.

The waiter whispered in his ear: "Someone died again."

The deceased was a maid who was responsible for delivering cakes. She died alone in the kitchen. She only left the sight of her companions for a few seconds, but the killer was still missing...

The death was the same as before, the neck was broken silently, no detection equipment, and some professionals who could detect, could not detect the trace of the murderer.

Things are getting difficult...

He quickly pinched his ears, and through the "Leader 6" skill holder sitting in the center, he directed his thoughts to all the connected companions: "Something happened again...another employee was killed, the murderer...I

Can’t find it.”

"It's my incompetence..." He didn't explain, he simply bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

"It doesn't matter whether you are incompetent or not. Fortunately, the employees who died are all employees. If something happens to the guests, it will be a big deal. Have you evacuated the guests?" Ignoring the security person in charge, in the mind sharing, another person said eagerly

asked.

"No, if they are evacuated, it means the matter will be serious, and the reputation of the sky garden will be greatly affected... I'm worried-" the security person in charge replied.

"... Let us report to the superiors first whether we need to evacuate or not. It would be great if this matter could be solved quietly. Now everyone is searching all over the place! Use all the equipment and all the personnel to prevent the murderer from escaping.

Get out and resolve this matter completely!" another person yelled.

They are very anxious, especially since there are two distinguished guests here today!

One is the most beloved daughter of Duke Wald, and the other is the son of Baron Wallenstein who has high hopes!

The Sky Garden cannot afford to offend either side!

A large number of people were spread out and searched the entire sky garden like a carpet without leaving any gaps. Every person, every dog, and even every insect was searched over and over again by the professionals. Every bit of the surrounding area was searched.

At a glance, the ants in the ground are biting their jaws, the gentle breeze blowing around makes the grass jump slightly, and there is even the sound of one's own blood flowing in the blood vessels and the sound of the heart beating, all of which have been recorded

Detecting.

But still nothing was found.

The Sky Garden is a first-class gold-selling cave. In order to ensure that the dignitaries can have fun and be safe here, it is equipped with a security team composed of dozens of professionals with level 7 or above. The security teams of various places, such as casinos and swimming pools, are equipped with security teams.

The people in charge are all at least level 7, and there are even five level 8 people working here.

And not only that, the place is heavily guarded and full of runes. Any disturbance cannot be detected by the most advanced equipment. In this place, every dog ​​must be registered first.

But in such a tightly defended sky garden, unexpectedly... two people died, and no one knew about it. The level 8 people took action, but they couldn't detect any movement.

Now, even level 8 people are starting to panic.

They finally stopped all entertainment and gathered the guests together in a large ballroom.

As expected, the guests began to panic, curse, and even accuse the guards of not doing their job well.

Dense guards guarded the house, and more than half of the power in the sky garden began to be concentrated here, creating a barrier that was impossible to break through.

When they were actually summoned, the nobles also panicked.

"Sky Garden, I have always believed in you, but you really disappoint me this time."

"Hurry up and let me down! Why are we locked up? I don't want to be the next victim!"

"My guards! Come on! You slow slugs! Go get my guards!"

The nobles made a fuss, cursing, panicking, and reacting in various ways. After the waiter told the truth, these upper-class dignitaries suddenly lost their elegance and began to be more dignified than the lower-class people they looked down upon.
