Chapter 28 The Circle Is Really Small

I thought she would contemptuously say that she doesn't like very naive and incompetent people, implying that she looks down on ordinary people. Who knows, she doesn't even bother to answer this question... Oh, this sense of superiority is extremely strong A strong mentality can easily lead to loss of control when promoted later... Klein couldn't help but slander in his heart. ☆☆New; Thinking; Road; Chinese;

In his cognition, Extraordinary people are just human beings with extra abilities, which are equivalent to being rich and prestigious. In essence, they still have human attributes and cannot escape society. They must reach Sequence 4 before they can be considered qualitatively changed.

Moreover, most of the demigods are also active in human society, and even the "Snake of Destiny" Will Auceptin of Sequence 1 is also doing a good job of unborn fetus... maybe only "Bleacher" Amon Only at this stage can they truly look at the real world with the eyes of a "god"... Klein turned his thoughts and said:

"Sorry, I used to be a businessman who often traveled back and forth between the North and South continents, and I don't have much experience in balls. Hehe, I mean this kind of balls."

"It's okay." Hazel responded calmly, as if she didn't care whether the other party brought up the topic just now.

If it were someone else, he wouldn't know how to chat with this proud girl at this time, and could only focus on dancing, but Klein is now well-informed and experienced, and has enough knowledge about the mysterious world and different Beyonders. After understanding, following the apology just now, he smiled and said:

"For me, this is not an easier challenge than the sea. It also has beautiful scenery, but also contains countless difficulties. Of course, there are also stories about various treasures in the sea, some of which are obviously false. , some sound real, but can't be verified, like the #1 'Death's Key'."

"Death's key?" Hazel raised her head and glanced at Mr. Dwayne Dantès who was much taller than herself.

Sure enough, this Extraordinary with a strong sense of superiority is always interested in things involving mystery... Klein chuckled secretly and nodded slightly:

"Yes, it's rumored that it's in a hidden place in the Sea of ​​Madness..."

He recounted the treasure legends he heard on the "White Agate" one by one, and added more details he heard in his subsequent adventure career.

In the process, he inevitably mentioned the "Four Kings" and the seven pirate generals.

Hazel was obviously interested in this, and responded to Klein in a rare way, and even asked questions occasionally, which made the dance between the two no longer awkward, and came to an end unconsciously.

Klein skillfully ended the topic just now, and asked instead:

"Are you going back to where you were just now, or going over there to get some food?"

After a dance, the man must follow the woman's wishes and send her where she wants to go, not necessarily where she was originally.

Hazel opened her mouth, as if she wanted to ask something, but in the end she didn't say those words, she nodded reservedly and said:

"The place just now."

Hehe, she is obviously reluctant to part with the story about the sea... This is a big brat, as long as he has the right temper and hobbies, it is actually not that difficult to get along with... Klein held back his smile and held the sea Joel was sent back to the edge of the dance floor where she had been standing.

As for himself, of course, he pretended to be casual and walked to the long tables with various foods, picked up a plate, and put himself a piece of pan-fried keel fish with chopped black pepper sauce. veal steak.

Compared to dancing and socializing, food is the essence of a party... Klein was thinking as he tried to make his eating movements appear elegant.

At this time, he saw Mrs. Mary coming over, forking a piece of red wine foie gras onto the plate.

Seeing the other party glance at him, Klein smiled politely and nodded as a response.

"I don't know what to call you? I haven't seen you at the banquets and dances held by Congressman Macht before." Perhaps seeing Dwayne Dantès's temples turning white,

Mrs. Mary, who had deep blue eyes, was very attractive, and had high cheekbones and an average face, asked proactively.

Klein smiled and said:

"I'm Dawn Dantès, a businessman who just came from Dixi Bay, and I live in this neighborhood.

"Ma'am, may I have the honor of knowing your name?"

Mary nodded thoughtfully, and she roughly understood that this was a businessman trying to squeeze into the upper class, just like her past self.

She smiled and said:

"Mary Short, director of Coym Company."

She didn't mention that she was the largest shareholder of Coim Company, nor did she say that she was currently a member of the Air Pollution Investigation Committee, which was Ruhn's subtlety.

Mary Short, is this returning to her father's surname? Yes, she is already divorced... Klein muttered silently, and said with a smile:

"I know this company, which is mainly engaged in anthracite and high-quality charcoal, has expanded very rapidly in recent months. Hehe, frankly speaking, I intend to invest, but it seems that I can't compete with others."

After the promulgation of air pollution-related bills, the demand for anthracite and high-quality charcoal increased greatly. Coim Company has developed beyond the previous years of hard work, and its overall value is said to have exceeded 250,000 gold pounds. Klein's intention to invest is not just nonsense, but he really thinks that this industry will become more important in the next few years, until human beings discover alternative energy sources.

Mary has always been very proud of the fact that she has promoted the air pollution investigation report, which has allowed Coym to develop rapidly, and said with a smile:

"This is because people pay more and more attention to the environment in which they live."

Having said that, she sighed slightly and said:

"It's getting better and better, but it's also getting more and more troublesome."

Because he "just" met, Klein didn't ask if there was any trouble. Relying on his previous acquaintance with Mrs. Mary, he easily found topics of interest to the other party, which made the two of them chat quite happily.

Hehe, her attitude towards Sherlock Moriarty and Dwayne Dantès is very different... The person she was familiar with before stood in front of her with a different face and identity. But he was treated completely new, without any problems. This feeling is really amazing... While chatting, Klein felt emotional for a while, and felt that the "Faceless Man" potion he had taken was rapidly digesting.

A few minutes later, a handsome man with brilliant blond hair came over with a glass of red wine, smiled and said to Mrs. Mary:

"Mary, what are you talking about?"

"Hibert, this is Mr. Dawn Dantès from Dixie. His experience at sea in West Balam is really interesting." Mary immediately introduced the two, "Dawn, this is Heber Mr. T. Hall, the eldest son of the Earl of Eastchester, hehe, we should have called him Lord, but he prefers that we call him Mr. Chief Secretary, Chief Secretary of the Air Pollution Investigation Committee."

I've heard you say that, of course, when he was active as Sherlock Moriarty... The Earl of East Chester, this is a great nobleman, the real top of society... Klein saluted respectfully but not humblely. road:

"Please allow me to express my gratitude as an ordinary person. The work of the Air Pollution Investigation Committee has given us a better living environment."

Hibbert Hall was quite happy with this sincere thanks, and responded with a smile:

"It's an effort by all of us."

Mary laughed beside her and said:

"Dawn, don't mention this matter again, it will make Hibbert proud, no, I was joking just now, he is more humble than all the noble children I know, he should be in East Chester at this time I was on holiday on the county family estate and went hunting with a group of friends, but as soon as I sent a telegram to MP Macht inviting us to this week's ball, he came back immediately."

"It's not just for the ball, there are many things that I need to deal with. Before June, my father, Earl Hall, would also often travel between Backlund and the family territory." Hibbert explained earnestly.

A gentleman who attaches great importance to his social image... Klein made a preliminary judgment in his heart.

Upon hearing this, Mary asked casually:

"What else do you need? When will you leave Backlund?"

"Everything else has been dealt with, only the last one is left, hehe, my younger sister Audrey is very interested in the 10% shares of Backlund Bicycle Company, and hired a professional team to help her negotiate. I am in charge of coordinating this This matter." Hibbert said indifferently.

A 10% stake in Backlund Bicycle Company? What a coincidence... I have to say that the circle of high society is not that big... Klein sighed secretly, and deliberately mentioned:

"I also found a team to acquire the 10% of the shares, and the price reached 9,000 pounds. Unfortunately, this cannot compete with others, so I can only give up."

Hibbert gave him a slightly surprised look:

"you're so sight."

He did not mention how much his specific offer was, lest the other party participate in the competition again.

9,000 pounds... Mary murmured silently, feeling that she had underestimated Dwayne Dantès' financial resources.

At this time, the melody of the third dance sounded, and Hibbert Hall turned to Mary and said:

"Shall I have the honor of asking you to dance?"

"I've been waiting for your invitation." Mary stretched out her hand immediately.

This prevented Klein from realizing his idea of ​​directly exchanging business cards with them. However, he was not in a hurry because the dance was still a long time away.

After getting another plate of food, he enjoyed it while looking at the dance floor, admiring the dancing postures of the ladies and ladies.

During this process, he found that Congressman Macht and Mrs. Liana were dealing with different guests, chatted happily with everyone, and even danced a few times.

"According to Walter, after confirming the guest list, the host must carefully summarize the preferences and experiences of each guest, and design different conversations or jokes accordingly, so that everyone feels treated individually... high society Interpersonal communication is really troublesome... Hehe, maybe this is the reason why the hairlines of Loen gentlemen are generally high..." Klein sighed and slandered.

He looked away, looked at the empty dinner plate, and seriously considered whether to invite a certain lady or lady to dance next, or to eat more.

At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Hazel Macht's figure. This girl was heading for the third floor in a slightly hurried footstep.
