Chapter 1142
But before the red glow filled her face, she whispered in order to control the situation: "Have you seen enough?"
"I can't see enough." Duck said softly, and then stretched out his white-gloved hand towards tonight's dance partner.
Pandora also raised her hand and placed her black gauze-covered palm on his. Their fingers intertwined and they closed them gently.
"Let's go, time is running out."
The embarrassment of being teased just now was passed over by cuteness without any trace.
Duck Dimon, +1 point!
…
Admission to the Yule Ball is at 7pm sharp.
But students often start from the tower at half past six, and then enter one after another after strolling around the castle.
Robert Blosheim, like most boys, wore a neat suit, but his overly broad shoulders and bulging muscles stretched the suit over his upper body, and he completely lost his cold temperament. .
On his way to the tower alone, he suddenly turned and walked towards the college's only infirmary.
While walking, I happened to pass by Scott Hurst, who was already in third grade.
He knew that this senior from the [Marine Biology Research Department] who had a good relationship with Witte should have just come out of the infirmary.
Sister Carly Ann was still in the infirmary during this time, Robert knocked on the door and entered, and entered the ward after obtaining Sister Carly Ann's permission.
The subtle chatter that could be heard at the door of the room suddenly disappeared, and there was only a half-lying Werther in the room, looking through books boredly.
Witte Gaude was "protected" in the infirmary on the grounds of illness.
To avoid complications, he could only spend this Christmas in his hospital bed.
"Think about it carefully, every festival is always full of misfortune." Werther said lightly, his eyes were calm, as if he had seen through the world of mortals.
Robert glared at him and said amusedly: "Stop pretending here, the Melancholy School has long been out of date."
Werther smiled and said, "You can go to the party and don't worry about me."
Robert immediately pointed to his suit and said, "Do you think I will stay here to take care of you? Forget it, I see you are in good spirits, I won't disturb you anymore."
After saying that, he stood up again, touched his nose and said, "I'll come back after the first half is over."
Werther smiled and said: "Okay, I will prepare the chessboard."
Robert nodded and left.
He knew about Ophelia Blood, but he didn't delve into the more details.
…
After Robert left, Ophelia Blood reappeared and sighed: "What a good child."
Werther's mouth twitched when he heard it, but he didn't refute.
In front of adults, even the naughtiest children will always restrain themselves.
Of course, he either implies that Robert is not a good boy, or that he is sometimes a little impulsive, stupid...well, a little innocent.
But no matter how big a friend's flaws are, it doesn't hinder their friendship. At most, they just... move forward with a heavy load.
…
As the hour hand gradually pointed to seven o'clock, the crisp sound of bells rang in the castle.
Duck and senior Pandora walked slowly along the corridor of the castle towards the banquet hall on the first floor.
Neither of them are actually talkative, but when they are together, they always have endless things to say.
From the joys and sorrows of the past, to the present life, to the longing for the future.
You can say as many as you want.
No matter why they first met each other, now, they always have good feelings based on that.
Time flies through thousands of words, and seven o'clock has arrived.
The two walked through the corridor, walked down the stairs, and arrived in front of the banquet hall.
Through the open door, a huge Christmas tree comes into view.
A dazzling array of items.
…
…
Chapter 741
A glowing elk stood on both sides of the main entrance of the banquet hall. The elk wore a red Christmas hat on its head.
Duck walked to the door and took off the Santa hat of one of the elk. He could see a new hat spinning down from the top of its head and landing on the elk's head again.
He smiled slightly, turned around and picked up the Santa hat, raised his head slightly, and put the Santa hat on senior Pandora's head with some caution.
With a smile on her face, Pandora took off a Santa hat and put it on his head.
The two people's eyes intertwined, and they stopped for a short time before touching each other.
"Go in."
Pandora said this and looked away slightly hastily.
"good."
Dark grabbed her hand calmly and walked towards the banquet hall.
Two boys and girls who looked strong but were actually the first in their lives walked into the hall amidst the clear and sweet music of the piano.
Once inside, the two of them moved their fingers lightly, then naturally let go. They said "see you later" to each other, and finally walked towards the long tables of their respective branches.
Pandora's steps were obviously faster than usual.
Dark paused for a moment, looked at her back thoughtfully, suddenly grinned, walked to the long table in the House of Lords, and then met Aurora's gaze head-on.
Obviously they set off later, but Aurora arrived at the banquet hall first.
She was a first-year student, so naturally she sat closest to the door.
But when Dak appeared at the door with Pandora, she was already caught in her sight.
Then, she watched them put on Christmas hats on each other, and walked into the hall hand in hand, and then she quietly retracted her gaze - but in the end she couldn't help but look up again.
"Merry Christmas Eve."
Dake waved to Aurora.
Aurora suppressed her fluctuating emotions, and raised her hand and scratched.
The two smiled at each other, and Dak walked behind him and went to the second-year seat.
Almost all the second-year students of the Noble Academy had arrived, and there were not many empty seats. Dak glanced and saw that there was still a seat between Diana and Rose.
But as soon as he walked in, he found that there was suddenly a little bear holding a lollipop on the seat, and his smile froze.
"There are people here." Diana read in a serious tone.
But before Dak opened his mouth to speak, she couldn't hold it back and laughed with her mouth covered.
The little bear was summoned inexplicably, and then inexplicably put back into the card, and the seat was vacant again.
Dak opened his mouth, but still pulled out a chair and sat down.
This guy is too thin-skinned to accomplish anything.
But just as he sat down, he heard Diana ask knowingly: "Where did you go?"
"Lover's Bridge." Dak gave the wrong answer without thinking.
Diana's little face swelled up visibly, thinking that this guy was really annoying, and he couldn't even coax people.
But if Dak really lied to coax her, she would definitely be even more unhappy... There's nothing I can do, I'm just unhappy!
Unhappy, just unhappy!
Diana's mouth was so pouty that socks could be hung on it.
Rose sat on the other side of Dak, and it was not easy to feed him at this time, so she had to blink at Dak desperately.
Dak sighed, and had to move the plate with the whole cake in front of him to his front, cut it into three neatly, and said: "Do you want to eat?"
"Eat." Diana responded conditionedly, and her cheeks puffed up again.
But when the cake was brought to her, she still obediently grabbed the fork and started eating.
The atmosphere finally eased... Well, it wasn't tense in the first place.
This year's Christmas party was still lively, with students talking and laughing, and the desserts and black tea on the table were fragrant. The brisk rhythm of the piano led to a cheerful mood. The "mountain"-shaped candlesticks that had not yet been lit danced up and down on the five-line score, and colorful light balls floated in the air, shrinking and expanding from time to time.
Four long tables with clear boundaries were covered with crimson tablecloths. There was a small Christmas tree at intervals. Under the Christmas tree, there were elks dragging sleighs and bags full of gifts - but no Santa Claus.
On the stage in front, the huge Christmas tree was hung with countless gift boxes and ornaments.
A dazzling golden crown, a magic book emitting magic light, a lance shining with sharp edges, and a set of tarot cards with [The Fool] as the first card...
Four iconic items floated around the Christmas tree, and the glowing elves danced around the Christmas tree, occasionally making silver bell-like laughter.
Looking up, the ceiling was flowing with a gorgeous Milky Way, and countless stars flickered and flickered, mysterious in the magnificence.
In this infinitely expanding festive atmosphere, the elegantly dressed professors finally entered from the side and back of the stage and sat down in the teacher's seat one by one.
In fact, there are not uncommon staff changes in St. Marian College every year. This year, there are a few more new faces and fewer old faces in the teaching team.
But students only need to know the professors of each subject and the deans of each branch.
Dak looked over there and saw Hephes Dragon, but not Ophelia Blood.
Professor Ryan Hax, who came after Christmas last year, has blended in harmoniously.
But for some reason, his head, which had grown long flowing hair again, turned into a bald head again, rounder than the moon.
Professor Lily seemed to be in a good mood. As soon as she sat down, she and Professor Nini started to eat the desserts on the table.
Ms. Bella from the library seemed to have a good relationship with Hephis. The two sat next to each other and were whispering.
Professor Sylph sat in the second seat. Tonight, she wore a thick coat and a snow-white scarf around her neck. Her face was cold, which was in sharp contrast to Professor Medea who was still wearing a thin purple robe.
Professor Jones sat in the back seat, and on her other side was Professor Holder Bode, whose face was as gloomy as before.
Professor Thompson, Professor Eric, Professor Bacon, Professor Steven Harvey...
Almost all the professors who could be thought of were here, except Kazel.
...
"Principal Arte, are you going to be the last one to appear again?"
Rose whispered to Dark.
"I think so."
Dak frowned slightly, unable to explain.
These days, although he was concentrating on making golems, he was not oblivious to what was happening outside.
It was a little different from what was planned.
Although Professor Sylph made a remote report to Principal Arte, it seemed that she did not get any constructive suggestions.
This was related to the fact that Principal Arte was not actually in the academy - there was a limit to what the clone could do.
In this incident, the Duke's Mansion and St. Marian's College had reached a private alliance agreement.
Oli and Eve will serve as representatives of the Duke's Mansion and cooperate with the academy until the end of this time.
Therefore, the Duke's Mansion also obtained some secret information.
For example, Dak has always been very curious about the whereabouts of Principal Arte.
In short, she is not in the academy now.
The last time she was in the academy was when the professors found the [Heart of God] in the dungeon.
At that time, she went to the dungeon with Professor Kazel and witnessed the existence of the [Heart of God] with her own eyes.
