Chapter 107 The old friend

"Here, how big are your feet?"

Annick pointed to his feet. A pair of brown leather shoes were put on the feet of a normal man.

"Well, my feet are not big."

Scarlett put her feet on the side, which were indeed smaller in comparison.

"Hey, luckily you didn't wear high heels, otherwise I would have suffered." Seeing her wearing a pair of white flat shoes, Annick still felt a little happy.

"Why are you obsessing over this?"

"The transformation potion changes the shape of the body together, including our feet. I will need to change the shoes I wear later. Once the potion wears off, I'm afraid I will have to go barefoot."

Hearing Annick's statement, Scarlett shook her head: "Do you always struggle with these strange things?"

"That's it. Let's exchange identities at what time. By the way, this is Matthew. Let her replace Emma later."

"Hello, Matthew, thank you very much for your sacrifice."

Matthew asked weakly: "Hello, Miss Scarlett, I just did a little work."

"This child is very well-behaved. By the way, after lunch, we will take action in the afternoon. At two o'clock in the afternoon, Her Royal Highness the Princess will drive here. Then I will take you to Emma's room."

"Okay, the potion only lasts for one hour. Remember not to waste time."

"No problem, thank you again."

After bidding farewell to Scarlett, Annick and his wife returned to the atrium. It was almost noon, and the meals on the table had been replaced with cold dishes.

"Here. Section Chief."

Norbert held a silver dinner plate and piled up various foods, including roasted goose and chicken. The boy seemed to be still looking for food.

"Are you reincarnated as a starving ghost?"

Annick took the throne and said with disdain that although he also planned to get his money back, it was still outrageous to be so naked.

"Isn't this for the consultant and your sister? They are resting in the pavilion over there."

Following his finger, Annick saw Merlin and his party sitting in the pavilion. There were many people in the venue now, but they all formed various small circles according to their closeness and had their own social places.

"Good morning, Consultant Spencer, I haven't seen you for a long time. I've been having a headache lately with all those trivial matters. Are you here, tutor?"

The delicate old man sitting on the main seat, and the one puffing away smoke with Spencer was none other than his mentor Russell.

"Everyone with a good reputation in Eggsburg is here. If I don't come, I will look different."

Russell's explanation makes sense. Perhaps the two extraordinary beings who are considered high-level in Eggsburg have something in common.

"Sit down, haven't you made a lot of trouble today?"

Annick glanced around and saw that his two sisters were silent and Merlin was blinking at him.

"How could it be possible? Consultant, aren't you making fun of me?"

Annick immediately understood the meaning of sending Norbert to get the food, in order to prevent him from leaking anything.

"That's good. If you embarrass Granger today, you will probably be hated for the rest of your life. This old boy is a coward."

After Spencer finished speaking, he looked at Instructor Russell and motioned to him to say.

"Actually, before last week, if you were really interested in Emma, ​​it was not impossible for me to say goodbye to you, but today the invitations have been distributed widely, so it's better not to cause trouble."

Instructor Russell also meant the same thing. Annick touched his head and pretended to be annoyed and said: "In your eyes, am I such an outrageous guy? Kidnapping someone's engagement partner?"

Spencer smiled because he was disrespectful and said: "It's hard to say, after all, you dare to go to the headquarters of another cult by yourself. It's normal to kidnap a general's daughter."

Russell was more rigorous: "Actually, the engagement is not irreversible. It's just that it's a bit difficult for Granger to bow his head and apologize to others. Hey, I still hope nothing happens today. After all, Her Royal Highness is here."

"Oh, what could happen?"

After Annick finished speaking, he whistled with his mouth and pretended not to care.

"As long as you know, let's eat."

Seeing Nolbe bring back enough food, Russell didn't want to continue this topic.

"Have a good meal, have a good meal, Irena, Irina, come to have a meal."

A cold meal is suitable for a banquet with so many people. After all, there is no need to serve dishes at tables. However, Annick was still very tormented by so much food. He only ate a few pieces of chicken and pretended to have no appetite.

"Strange, why are you so humble today?"

Spencer asked with a greasy mouth while holding a roast chicken.

"I have an upset stomach. You know, sitting in the office for a long time will naturally cause a lot of problems."

"Yeah, forget it, let's eat."

Seeing that Spencer was no longer serious, Annick let out a long breath, then walked over to Nobel, who was still feasting, pretended to pick up something, and then lowered his body and said.

"At three o'clock in the afternoon, the wine bottle is thrown into the pond on time."

"Hmm."

Nolbe managed it with his mouth full of food.

"Don't drop the chain."

After Annick finished speaking, he stood up and sat on a stool outside, drinking a soda.

"Senior, what are we doing now?"

"Hold my arm, we have to plan an escape route."

Annick is certainly not stupid. If Emma and Scarlett sneak out with the help of his identity, he will definitely not be able to pass through the main entrance with this face again. Although the guard may not remember it, Annick does not dare to bet.

Pretending to be a couple, the two people searched every corner of the yard, looking for blind spots and considering whether it would be convenient for them to escape.

Behind the rockery in the garden, there is only a path leading here, and the wall is not high. Through a wall, the sounds from outside the wall can be heard, including the not too noisy sound of carriages.

Annick jumped up with all his strength and put his hands on the wall. Through the wall, he saw that there was really only a sparsely populated road outside the wall.

"Tsk, tsk, this is not your ex-lover. I have to say, Taylor, your ability to read people is really poor."

"My dear, what are you talking about? How could I see such a guy who sneaked in there? Maybe he got in there from there."

The voices of a man and a woman came from under the wall. Annick turned his head and saw a woman wearing a revealing, deep-V dress hugging the arm of a middle-aged man with a big belly. The man wore a top hat and a gold chain.

, gold pocket watch and gold-inlaid cane, full of nouveau riche feeling.

Annick didn't say anything and jumped off the wall directly.

"Let's go, Matthew."

"OK."

Looking at Annick's indifferent attitude, Taylor sarcastically said: "Is this just for the sake of your poor self-esteem and running away?"

Annick looked up and down at this woman. She had blond hair, blue eyes, a beautiful face, fair skin, and a perfect figure exposed to the air.

"We have met before. Although you are indeed considered a beauty, you just want to get together with this nouveau riche who has no taste for a few gold pounds. How can I say, high-class wandering? Goodbye."
