Chapter 187 The price of gifts has been decided long ago(1/2)

The banquet hall was silent.

Only Liz's loud slap echoed faintly.

And that aura of death that appeared in vain, like the black scythe of the God of Death, that made people breathless, also receded quickly like the tide and disappeared with Liz's slap.

But no one really thinks that it is just an illusion.

Every nobleman present was frightened into cold sweat on the back of his clothes, which is the best proof.

Among them, the three people from Cima next to Vivian are particularly obvious.

There was a chill on my neck.

After swallowing hard, they made sure their heads were still intact. The backs of the three of them were soaked.

Just now...what on earth was that?

All the distinguished guests in the banquet hall had this doubt.

But it's a pity that they don't have time to think about this issue now.

Because, at this moment, there is obviously a bigger event happening in front of them.

"Li, Lisi?" Sima said in disbelief.

She looked at the angry girl who was very familiar to her and stood opposite her with a "you shouldn't be able to be here" look.

"Why, are you surprised to see me...? Sima!" Liz sneered.

The eldest lady just wanted to question Sima in public about the kidnapping.

But when Liz's eyes passed through Sima's body, she saw...

After a certain little girl with red cheeks and a slightly drunk look, her eyes were very confused, and she looked like she still didn't understand what was going on. It was obvious that something was not right.

"Vivian?" Liz frowned immediately.

"Get away!"

The earl's daughter gave a sweet shout, and the two nobles who were summoned by Sima to trick Vivian immediately got into trouble and did not dare to block Liz's way.

They were trembling all over, and the fear that had just been relieved reappeared this time. The two of them kept winking at Sima, asking them to tell her what to do now.

But now Sima is still unable to protect herself, and the planned situation is disrupted by Liz's appearance.

She could only give the two of them a look to stop them from talking nonsense, and then her face became uncertain, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

the other side.

"Li...Lisi?" Vivian tilted her head, rubbed her hazy eyes with her little hands, and asked uncertainly towards the girl who came to her with a concerned expression on her face.

After her eyes came into focus and she could really see the girl's appearance, Vivian showed an expression of surprise.

"Great, okay! It's really you... Liz, you, you escape..."

Before the little girl could finish her words, she was interrupted by Liz.

"Vivian, have you been drinking?" As soon as the little girl opened her mouth, Liz could smell the smell of alcohol hitting her face.

This made the girl frown even more tightly.

Under Liz's questioning, Vivian was like a child who had made a mistake and answered with a guilty tone:

"Just...just drank a little bit..."

"A little bit!? Are you like a little bit?"

Liz was like a stern older sister, reprimanding her immature younger sister. She snatched the wine glass that Vivian was still holding in her hand, which was given to her by Cima and the others.

Then, turning around suddenly, Liz's cold gaze fell on Sima again.

Although she had just arrived, as the daughter of an earl and at the top of the aristocracy, Liz could see the situation clearly at a glance, unlike a young girl who was just starting out.

"It's you!"

"It seems that I really underestimated you, Sima. I didn't expect that your purpose of kidnapping me...is here!"

The "it's here" in Liz's mouth could refer to Vivian, or it could refer to this fundraising dinner.

"No, Belis, Sima is...a friend. I want to drink it myself. It has nothing to do with her..."

Vivian, who was feeling dizzy, still wanted to defend Sima.

But Liz ignored the drunk girl, and instead looked at the place where the girl was taken, which was located in a remote corner of the banquet, and then looked sharply at the two nobles next to Sima.

These two people did not have Sima's determination. As soon as Liz glanced at them, they immediately felt guilty and their eyes wandered, making them feel uncomfortable.

snort.

He snorted coldly, as if he was sure of something.

"Friend? Vivian, please be careful and let you know that not everyone will be like you and always be friends with others sincerely."

Liz said, picking up the wine glass she had snatched from the little girl's hand.

He glanced down and saw what looked like clear and normal alcohol inside.

The girl quickly took out a silver needle from the small package she had been carrying.

"This needle is engraved with identification magic. As long as there are abnormal substances in the food, the color of the needle will become darker."

As if explanation alone is not enough, stronger credibility is needed.

Liz was behind again and added a special sentence.

"This is a birthday gift given to me by my father, the head of the Thistle family, the Earl, when I was ten years old. My father at the time told me to be careful when making friends and be careful of bad people."

Liz noticed that after her words, the corner of Sima's mouth opposite her twitched violently several times.

But at this time, the eldest lady just thought that this was Sima's guilty conscience.

Liz put the silver needle into Vivian's wine glass.

As expected, even though it was a high-end drug produced by a treasure thief group, its true colors were revealed when faced with a self-defense item given to his "beloved" daughter by an earl.

The silver-white needle soon darkened in color, heading towards jet black.

"how come..."

So much has happened, and Vivian has recovered a lot from her drunken state, but the little girl still looks at Sima, this new friend who has obviously "helped" her a lot, with eyes that she doesn't want to believe.

But Sima remained silent, lowered her head slightly, and covered her face with her hair on both sides, which is the best proof.

"Someone is coming!"

"Catch her, and these two, they are all accomplices!"

The original owner of Cima was only the daughter of a baron, and Liz, the daughter of an earl, was regarded as a noble lady in the eyes of common people.

But if there was a real comparison between the two, then Cima might not even be able to reach Liz's toes.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! How dare the guards at the venue disobey the order of the earl’s daughter?

What's more, just judging from the conversation just now, it seems that Sima not only has evil intentions against Vivian, but is also inseparable from the incident of Liz being kidnapped.

Several guards immediately came from all directions. On such an important occasion where many nobles gathered, the guards were almost always on call.

As Xima's accomplices, the two free-standing nobles were so frightened when they saw being surrounded by so many guards that they squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, not even daring to resist.

On the other hand, Sima...

"What!" Liz exclaimed.

Xima seemed to sigh.

When her slightly lowered head began to rise upwards, at the same time, Sima's legs followed suit, almost leaping, and she easily escaped from the surrounding layers of guards.

Not only the guards, but also Liz herself and all the other nobles watching the show were stunned by Sima's actions.

Because, this is not what a noble lady can do.

No matter how experienced and agile a thief is, he cannot be said to be able to jump six to seven meters high in one leap, jump out of the guard wall, and land extremely smoothly without even taking a breath.

It was this moment of surprise that gave Sima ample opportunity to escape.

But having said that, even if everyone is not stunned, the ordinary guard strength here alone cannot stop Sima at all, right?

It is even said that as long as Xima wants to, she can directly counterattack. In the face of absolute power, the number of people is meaningless.

Oh, no, there is another "great god" here. No wonder Sima chose to remain silent, startling everyone, and then take the opportunity to escape.

Using power will destroy the physical disguise, and one of them is unwillingness to reveal one's identity.

The presence of Vivian, whose strength is unfathomable, is even worse.

Xima found it skillfully, and it was at the back door of the venue not far away. It was obvious that everything had been taken care of, and any unexpected situation had been considered.

After her figure flashed and completely disappeared from the banquet hall, everyone seemed to have completely come back to their senses.

"Chase!"

"Chase them all!" Liz felt a little angry.

She didn't expect that at this point, she could actually let the other party run away under her nose.
