46. ??Wine and Intrigue
Till said:
"This is Pal, Pal, you should already know Mr. Wright."
Parr is a young man, only in his twenties based on his appearance, but his clothes and demeanor make people feel inexplicably calm.
Parr smiled and said:
"I have heard of Mr. Wright's name for a long time. A kind and generous person like you is exactly the kind of person who is most in need in this world."
He Wen didn't believe that his words were sincere, but he still shook hands with him sincerely, and at the same time spouted a bunch of nonsense that he didn't even believe:
"Where? People like Mr. Pal and Mr. Till who would rather hide in the darkness but still bring light to the world are the most admirable unsung heroes."
Parr replied:
"Mr. Wright, this time we carry out this mission together and we will definitely be able to complete it smoothly. Especially with the help of Mr. Wright, this matter will be much easier."
Hewen asked:
"Oh, why? I don't know the specific details of our mission yet."
Parwin smiled and said:
"We need to discuss this issue carefully, but this is not a good place to talk. How about we go to your home to talk. Of course, if it is inconvenient, we can also find a place in private."
Hevin knew that Pal wanted to test him, so he replied nonchalantly:
"I usually don't like to talk about official matters at home, please find a place."
Pal responded:
"Okay, our White Lion Club is an aboveboard association after all. Naturally, we have a special soundproof room for members' daily enjoyment. Let's go there now."
Hevin followed Pal back the same way and returned to the ground.
Different from the underground, the White Lion Club building next to the street is very glamorous, with luxurious decorations, red onyx and white stones inlaid on the door frames, ultra-modern stone carvings everywhere, and the fruit bowls are not suitable for the city of Forth.
Rare fruits of the climate.
The people coming and going were all well-dressed. They were either nobles with a small status or rich businessmen with rich assets. They wore jewelry that even ordinary people could not afford to buy even if they worked hard in their lifetime.
They regarded themselves as elites, sharing fine wine and knowledge, and seemed not to take the kingdom's dignitaries seriously in their conversation. They talked cheerfully about the world structure and expressed their own opinions.
What everyone seeks is other people's approval and recognition of themselves, but the irony is that no one agrees with other people's ideas from the bottom of their hearts.
Not only do they call themselves elites, but they only think they are elites.
Hevin opened the door and walked to the private room with Pal.
Everyone's eyes were turned over, and the voices of discussion gradually disappeared.
Expressions of admiration and recognition appeared on everyone's faces.
Everyone present is proud of their power and wealth. It is precisely because of this that they admire Hewen from the bottom of their hearts and think that he is worthy of respect.
people.
After all, if the famous wealthy businessman Wright is not worthy of respect, then what are they? A bunch of self-admiring clowns?
Hewen did not look at any of them, but no one thought he was too arrogant, because they would not pay attention to people with lower status than themselves.
Hewen walked into the room and closed the door.
Parr took out the whiskey on the ice, poured himself half a glass, and looked up at Hevin:
"Do you like it cold or at room temperature?"
"Just freeze it."
Parr also poured half a glass for Hewen, then took out the steel clip, took two clean ice cubes and put them into the wine glass.
Parr explained:
"I like talking over a drink."
Hewen agreed:
"Wine is one of the most outstanding creations. Whenever my companions and I achieved a victory in the past, we would enjoy the wine and delicacies to our heart's content."
Parr took a sip of whiskey and echoed:
"Just some invisible creatures, combined with natural fruits, can produce such wonderful changes. I would say that wine is a gift from the gods to people, especially those who are lost. Wine can make them forget their worries.
, put down the burden on yourself.”
Hewen said curiously:
"A gift for the lost? Are you confused about the road ahead?"
Parr's eyes were blurred:
"Confused, no, I have never been confused. My goal is always clearly visible in front of me, and I am unwavering. It's just that I am burdened with such a heavy responsibility, and I often feel tired, and strong alcohol can make me temporarily ignore it.
My duty is to enjoy a moment of peace."
Hewen raised his glass:
"Honor our cause."
Parr also raised his glass:
"To our great deeds that will eventually be realized."
Parr put down his wine glass and asked naturally:
"Why did you join us? You know, Tire's plan is actually very difficult to realize. Why are you moved by him?"
Hewen said with a confident and somewhat arrogant expression:
"To get to where I am today from scratch is impossible in the eyes of ordinary people, but I did it and didn't find it difficult."
Relying on my magic gold coin bag, He Wen said in his heart.
"If there is anything that still piques my interest, Tyr's goal is more or less one. He wants to change the world and become a new ruler. I don't care if he wants to be a tyrant or a hero, but no matter what, I
We can take this opportunity to truly stand on the top of the world and overlook the planet beneath our feet."
Hewen seemed like the boldest and greediest careerist at this time, but his expression and posture made people believe in him from the bottom of their hearts.
"I have no interest in changing this world, but changing this planet to a new set of rulers is a good challenge. I will get everything I want with my own strength in this storm."
Hevin finished his speech, and Parr looked at him quietly.
He was silent for dozens of seconds before speaking:
"Your words really make me feel complicated, but even a guy like me can feel your pure and undisguised desires and ambitions.
"But I have a question. What if Tyr doesn't succeed? Have you never considered this?"
Hewen smiled:
"What can I lose? Money? That is just a number to me. Life? I am sure to control my own life and death. The probability of success of this matter is of course very small, but I will look at Tyr, maybe he
The one who can do it all.
Hewen smiled mischievously:
"And you have me now,"
Parr smiled helplessly and said:
"I kind of get it, you're a crazy guy."
Hewen asked:
"After all that, you still haven't told me what we need to do?"
Parr's voice deepened:
"Someone within the Knights is forming a secret alliance with the Original Fire."
Hewen asked with a surprised expression:
"Who is it?"
Pal looked serious:
"It's not clear yet, but I have locked in the candidates. Only three people have the possibility of doing this. They are the new chief apprentice of the knights, Mayo, the second apprentice of the knights, Enid, and the deputy captain of the knights, Adams.
