The City Keeper's Palace of Caribbean Port is located in the best location in the entire city. It is located at the top of the city, overlooking the bustling and busy Caribbean Port.
This was originally the residence of the Archbishop of the Holy See of Light in Caribbean Harbor. After hundreds of years of construction, you can think about how beautiful it is.
Neatly polished granite and bright mirror-like marble together build this majestic castle-like building with red tiles and white walls.
The entire mansion occupies a large area, with several courtyards where the family of the ruler of Caribbean Port lived. Every decoration has been carefully crafted, and each courtyard is a masterpiece of a famous architect, with different styles from different eras.
The buildings are intertwined together, but there is a harmonious beauty.
Compared with this place, Lorraine spent a lot of money to renovate the Nai'an Governor's Palace, which is still several grades behind. It can only be said that it is not simple.
The castle guard's mansion faces the calm and beautiful Caribbean Sea under the sun. From the balcony here, you can overlook the shadows of sails on the sea. The cool sea breeze blows slowly from the sea. The surroundings are very quiet, without the hustle and bustle of the lower city.
.
Today, almost everyone in the city guard's office knows that Miss Fiona is in a very good mood after going out for a weekend trip.
First, when they entered the door, the door guards were extremely surprised to find that Miss Fiona, who was expected to be as cold as ice when she came back, with a stern face like an angry little frog, actually faced them when they entered.
Everyone smiled and said hello.
This must be very abnormal. It is well known that Miss Fiona hates boring social interactions. Every time she comes back, she looks like she is full of exploding crystals.
Then the servants and aunts discovered that after the young lady jumped out of the car briskly, she was actually walking. She unconsciously took two dance steps, twirled her body happily, let the corners of her skirt fly, and bloomed like a lotus.
Come on.
More importantly, there was a strange smile on her pretty face from time to time. Even the corners of her eyes were raised happily, as bright as a blooming rose.
These aunts are all experienced. Usually when they are bored, they like to peek at other people's older girls and younger wives. With rich experience, they just glance at them with the corner of their eyes, and then in an instant they all burst into tears of excitement:
The lady's estrus...well, the puberty period has finally arrived~! No longer have to worry that the lady will become an old girl who cannot get married.
Miss Fiona jumped like a cheerful bird all the way to the main house.
"It seems that she is in a good mood." On the balcony on the second floor, a middle-aged woman in luxurious clothes was sitting leisurely under an umbrella, sipping fragrant tea, with an open book at her hand.
When I saw Fiona walking over happily like a lark, I couldn't help but sigh softly, with a warm smile on my face.
The short and fat man next to him was stunned when he heard this, put down the documents in his hands, looked up at his wife, and then said: "You...what did you say?"
The middle-aged woman looked at his slightly bald head, plump cheeks, and wrinkles on his forehead. She couldn't help but sigh and shook her head gently. She secretly lamented the flight of time. Unknowingly,
, the handsome young man at the beginning has turned into a bald uncle with a beer belly, shouting about this discomfort and that discomfort every day.
And the petite and cute little daughter who stumbled every step of the way has now turned into a big girl waiting to be married, radiating the light of youth and beauty from the inside out, and she might fly away from her one day.
.
She sighed in her heart, but decided to let the bald uncle find out on his own, after all, she was also his daughter.
So, she just put down the teacup in her hand and said: "Nothing, nothing. My dear."
The man blinked doubtfully. Out of habit for many years, he knew that the more a woman said "nothing", the more problematic it was. This is absolutely a universal truth that applies to everyone.
But considering that he is currently involved in government affairs, and coupled with the natural laziness of men, he also pretended not to hear the meaning of the other party's words. Anyway, if he was not allowed to know, his wife would never let him know, and he immediately lowered himself
He turned his head and continued to look at the document in his hand. Then he took a pen and made various instructions on it.
At this moment, I heard the sound of brisk footsteps.
Immediately afterwards, a fragrant breeze blew in. A young girl walked up with brisk steps.
She came to the balcony, saw the two of them, and immediately shouted happily, saying: "Ha, you are indeed here."
After saying that, he jumped over and kissed the lady's face gently. Then he ran to the short and fat man and kissed him gently on his bald head. Then he playfully kissed him on his bald head.
He scratched the top of his head twice, making the little hair he had left messy.
"Fiona~!" The short and fat man couldn't help complaining twice, then hurriedly put down the document and smoothed the few remaining strands of hair on his head.
Fiona sniffed proudly, then sat down on the chair next to her and stretched out with satisfaction.
The lady looked at the smile that could not be concealed on her pretty face, and couldn't help but sigh softly. Then she reached out and poured her a cup of tea, handed it over, and said calmly: "It seems, you
You had a lot of fun going to the countryside this time. No one will bother you anymore?"
Fiona took the tea, then wrinkled her pretty face and said: "Forget it, how could it not be? That Grok is arrogant. His brain may not be as big as a pine nut, and the rest of it is probably muscles.
, reading those copied poems in public will make people feel sick and want to vomit. So forget it.
You actually said you wanted to chase me in front of those people, but it was actually just for the position of city guard."
The short and fat man immediately darkened his face after hearing this.
The lady was also angry in her heart, but when she saw his appearance, she still forced a smile, reached out and put her hand on his arm, and whispered softly: "Don't be angry, my dear."
She turned her head, looked at Fiona, and said, "What happened next?"
Fiona spread her hands and said, "Later, later I took a carriage and left."
As he spoke, he blinked his big watery eyes with an innocent look.
The lady looked at it and couldn't help but sigh again and said, "What happened next?"
Fiona was stunned for a moment, then recalled the situation at that time. A smile appeared on her lips unconsciously, and then she said: "Later, on the road, a little fat man jumped out and wanted to rob."
The pudgy man lost his voice and said, "What did you say? Someone robbed you?"
He was about to ask again, but then he saw the noble lady send a stern eye dart towards her, and immediately shut her mouth honestly and spread her hands obediently.
Fiona hugged her legs with her hands, curled up comfortably on the chair, and continued: "You don't know, that little fat guy is so cute, pink and tender, like a meat ball, and then a ruffian ran out
Stopped him.
That ruffian had a mean look on his face, and he was dragging him as hard as he could, which made people’s palms feel itchy..."
The two people couldn't help but look at each other, and then stared at Fiona closely, as if they wanted to see a flower on Fiona's face.
Feeling the strange gazes of the two people, which could almost burn her through, Fiona immediately woke up. Her heart beat wildly. For some reason, her face turned red with shame, and then she felt as if she had been stung by a wasp.
He jumped up in panic and said: "I...I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do..."
Saying that, he hurried downstairs like a gust of wind.
Seeing her running so fast as if her tail had been stepped on, the short and fat man was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said to the lady: "It seems that our girl has grown up..."
After he finished speaking, he immediately felt a strange sense of loss coming over him. He couldn't help but sigh softly and murmured: "Our girl has grown up..."
But the noble lady smiled, then gracefully raised the tea cup in her hand and said, "There will always be this day, my dear, there will always be this day."
After Fiona ran far away, Qi Qi felt her heart pounding. But then she remembered something. Then she turned around and found the housekeeper in the garden who was directing everyone's work as expected.
She immediately waved and said loudly: "Uncle Phil, can you please come over here?"
The butler immediately walked over at an unprecedented speed. It was obvious that he had heard about Miss Fiona.
Fiona looked at him with a straight face as usual, but there was always a half-smiling look in his gleaming little eyes. Fiona couldn't help but her heart skipped a beat, but in the end she still insisted.
He scratched his head and said hesitantly: "Uncle Phil, it's like this. After a while maybe... maybe, maybe... or someone comes to see me. Could you please prepare a few guest rooms?"
It’s not like no friends have come here before, either for accommodation or for fun, but Fiona doesn’t know why at this moment, but she feels it’s very difficult to talk about these words. Even Fiona herself doesn’t understand what she is doing.
What's wrong.
The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, then said: "How many rooms? Miss."
Seeing Fiona's surprised expression, he immediately woke up and said hurriedly: "Miss, how many rooms do you want me to prepare?"
Fiona thought for a moment and said: "It should be three rooms, right?"
Fiona thought to herself: Isn't it just a big gangster and a little gangster? What is this lady afraid of them?
The butler still stood where he was.
Fiona bit her lip and said: "That person's room, the little fat man's and the pet elephant's room, and the little maid's room. There are three rooms in total."
At this time, the housekeeper suppressed a smile and did not ask Fiona who the "person" in her mouth was. He just nodded and said respectfully: "Okay, Miss. I will tell people to go there right now."
Prepare."
He was about to turn around. Fiona immediately stopped him and added carefully: "They came together, so it's best for them to live together. Do you understand?"
The housekeeper looked at her rosy cheeks, shy and radiant appearance, and immediately sighed, his young lady has really grown up. If nothing else, just looking at her level of attentiveness, you can tell how caring she is.
Value that person.
But he also knew that girls are thin-skinned, especially the eldest lady in front of him. If he said it, she would become angry and many things would happen. Therefore, he just said calmly: "As you wish. My dear
Miss. I will arrange it myself."
After saying that, he bowed and then walked over calmly.
After Fiona finished the arrangements, she let out a long breath, but looking at the back of the housekeeper, a kind of worry came to her heart: she just said it casually, and she thought they were too embarrassing at the time.
That little fat guy actually peed in the street, but that guy didn't care, so he got up and left in a hurry. I don't know if they will come?
Or maybe they will come? Those gangsters are more interested in money than anything else. They are even more concerned about a copper coin. They have defrauded me of a lot of things. I can tell at a glance that they are bandits coming down from the mountain. They must be
If they are used to being stingy, they will definitely not spend that wasted money to stay in a hotel...
The girl, who had always been carefree before, began to worry about gains and losses for the first time. She sat in the garden, looking at the flowers in the garden, in a daze, her expression sometimes happy, sometimes gnashing her teeth.
I don’t know how much time passed, but the sun was gradually setting in the west. But there was still no news about those people. Fiona couldn’t help but become more and more worried.
As the sky turns dark and the lanterns are turned on, the city guard's mansion gradually becomes lively. The courtyard is lit with lights.
Fiona couldn't help but frowned as she listened to the noisy voices coming from the front.
At this time, a maid came over with a sad face.
She knew that the young lady might have been let off, and that if she came here at this time, she might be in trouble. But when the lot was drawn, she lost, so she had to bite the bullet and come here.
She came up behind Fiona and carefully reminded: "Miss, it's already late."
Fiona responded lightly, and then asked: "Why is it so lively in the mansion?"
When the maid saw that Fiona didn't get angry, she patted her small breasts and was congratulating herself. Then she said: "Miss, have you forgotten? Today is a day for a social banquet in our house. Here are the guests.
"
Fiona was startled, and then she remembered that this social banquet was the best way for nobles to build relationships and enhance friendship. Everyone gathered together to chat, drink, and gather information, and casually hooked up with some adulterers and prostitutes.
.
As the city guard, my father holds the event once or twice a month, and the invitations are all well-known people in Caribbean City.
In order to understand the sentiments of the people and maintain good relations with the nobles and gentry in the city, so as to prevent them from causing trouble for themselves secretly.
She raised her head and looked at the rising moon. She couldn't help but sigh softly and said, "Well, I understand."
The maid hesitated for a moment and reminded: "Miss, you will also be attending this banquet. Should we go change clothes?"
Fiona said without thinking: "If I'm not in the mood, I won't go~!"
The maid begged: "Miss..."
Fiona snorted coldly and said: "It's useless even if you call me eldest sister. I won't go~! I won't go if I don't go."
At this moment, I heard a loud child's voice in the distance shouting: "We are here to find Fiona. We are really not little thieves. What do you think of your eyes? I am such a handsome thief."
? Please let us in quickly~!
Otherwise, I will go back and talk to Fiona and ask her to kick you, the scoundrel, outside to guard the reservoir~!"
Fiona immediately cheered softly and said: "I knew those ruffians must be reluctant to spend money~! Damn it, my aunt really treats this place as a free hotel."
She jumped up from the ground like a deer, then smiled and said to the maid: "Quick, let's change clothes."
The maid looked at her in surprise and found that the young lady in her family suddenly seemed to be a different person. Her fair and pretty face was covered with a layer of crystal jade color, and even the eyes in her beautiful eyes became brighter.
many.
Fiona ignored her, walked briskly, swayed her slim waist a few times, and then disappeared at the end of the trail.
The maid couldn't help but sigh softly, Miss Fiona had really grown up and had reached puberty.
Even when we went out together on the street before and were chased by ferocious wolf dogs, I had never seen her run so fast.
But then he calmed down and followed closely.
After a while, the housekeeper appeared from the side.
He looked at the empty chairs under the tree and couldn't help but wonder: "Huh? Was the lady still here just now? Where has she gone now? Are those her friends?"
Lorraine, Vera and others stood at the door of the city guard's mansion, carefully looking at the city guard's mansion in front of them.
This mansion is located at the highest point of the hill. It is a luxurious mansion. It is extremely luxurious.
Lorraine turned her head and looked at the bay below. Although she couldn't see clearly in the dusk, it was just as the manager of the theater said. From a high position, she could have a panoramic view of every person and boat in the bay.
Below are dots of lights like a galaxy, stretching from here to the farthest port.
Looking up into the distance, you can see the curved arc under the sky, between the sea and the sky. It makes you feel broad-minded.
Due to the wide field of vision, you can even see the magnificent scene of the setting fiery red sunset and the just-rising moon facing off in the sky in the dim starry sky.
At this time, luxurious carriages kept coming from outside.
When the dignitaries in the car passed the door and saw their group, they couldn't help but cast surprised and curious glances.
Although Lorraine was calm and composed, the young master was used to being a gangster. He showed no sign of weakness and stared at those people with wide eyes. If anyone dared to look at him with wide eyes, he would stare back with even wider eyes.
.
The people sitting on the carriage looked at the aggressive look of this fat little fat man with white makeup and pink makeup. They all laughed secretly, but no one came forward, because Lorraine and the others looked like they were dressed up.
I'm here for the banquet, but I don't know why I got entangled with the doorman here.
They sat in the car and after taking a look at it, they all drove past.
When Leo saw the carriage passing by, he turned his head again, continued to stretch out his fat finger, nodded the guard's nose, and said threateningly: "Boy, I remember you. You know better, hurry up and let go
Let's go in. We are guests invited by your lady. Otherwise, you will bear all the consequences."
The guard looked at the little boy with an arrogant look on his face. He couldn't laugh or cry at the moment. Where did the young lady find this fat little boy? He was acting in a dignified manner.
This was the first time he encountered someone who came to the city guard's house to act arrogantly in this city, but looking at Lorraine, Leo and Vera, he didn't dare to neglect them.
He said seriously: "Young master, it's not that I won't let you in, it's just that we really don't know your identity."
Leo was furious, shaking the trophy in his hand, and said: "Why don't you know our identities? How many times have I told you that I am the lone hero, Lei Guangguang. Look, here are my certificates and trophies.
It was issued by your city. I didn’t have a certificate before and said I was fake. Now that I have a certificate, why can’t I prove my identity?
Grandma, what kind of world is this? Is there any justice~!"
The guard didn't even come up with a breath, and almost died. Who is this person~! At such a young age, he can make up a lot of nonsense. It's the way of the world, and it's the way of heaven. I'm unlucky today, listen to you, you little kid
The damn fat man is gibbering, this is unjust~!
But he didn't dare to say it. He just said politely: "Sir, please be patient. We have sent someone to find the lady. As long as she says a word, I will let you in immediately."
Leo jumped up and said: "I don't~! Do you know that what I hate most is patience~! Every time you tell me to be patient, it will definitely not do anything good~!"
He put his hands in front of his mouth to make a trumpet shape, and then shouted loudly: "Fiona, we are here, come out quickly, come out to pick us up..."
The guard couldn't help but feel a headache when he saw how happy he was. If it had been anyone else, everyone might have swarmed him, beat him up, then stripped off his clothes and hung him on the flagpole, feeding him mosquitoes for half a month before asking any questions.
talk.
But at this time, the entire city guard knew that the young lady had several guests coming, and the descriptions were exactly the same as the current guests. Even if he was given the courage to do so, he would not dare to take action.
While Leo was arguing, he suddenly heard a voice yelling angrily: "Okay, shut up, I can hear your voice no matter how far away I am. I really owe you before~!"
Leo was startled and turned around to look, only to see a beautiful girl looking over here in the moonlight.
She was wearing a purple evening dress, with her long hair in a high bun, her shoulders slightly exposed, and her skin as soft and smooth as cream. She showed an elegant, noble, charming and ladylike style.
Leo blinked hard, and after a while he finally recognized it and said: "Fiona, it turns out it's really you. You changed your clothes and you really look like a lady.
I can’t recognize him anymore.”
Fiona was immediately furious, raised her hand and gave a violent shudder, and said: "What do you mean by a statue?"
She looked at Lorraine and Vera, and then smiled and said: "You are here, there is a banquet happening. It's a little messy, come in quickly."
With that said, he turned around and led everyone in Lorraine towards the mansion.
