Chapter 45

At nightfall, Ning Yuan appeared in front of the Yuezhao Academy's auditorium in a slightly outdated dress. Anna, who gently held his arm, stood on his left side. Inexplicably, there is a feeling that the perfect match is the sun and the moon.

The venue for this reception is the auditorium of Moonshine Academy. Near the time of the reception, besides the students of Moonshine Academy, there are many aristocratic members of Keke City in this area. Most of them wear luxurious dresses, surrounded by servants. From then on, the style is better than the other.

Compared with them, Ning Yuan and Anna's ostentation is much more shabby -- but that's good, anyway, in the setting, he and Anna are just down-and-out nobles.

The ostentation of the nobles quietly dissipated at the entrance of the auditorium, where a group of solemn-looking guards of the Judgment Hall stood, checking in order whether the family crests and lists of the visiting nobles corresponded, and Ning Yuan could see from a distance that someone had already met with them. There was some conflict among the guards of the Judgment Hall.

It was only when he and Anna approached unhurriedly that the reason seemed to be that a certain paunchy, bald nobleman wanted to bring his new plaything with him to the reception—he took it as a sign that he used to attend In the hunting field, try to exchange some resources as usual.

It's a pity that the people in the Hall of Judgment didn't give him the slightest bit of face about his ancestral background, so they rejected him mercilessly.

"Sorry, her name is not on the list, no accommodations."

"I need a reason."

"There is no reason. What the temple stipulates is the creed."

The bald old man was a little sullen for a while. If it was a family in Keke City, then he still had the confidence to bargain, but when he faced a behemoth with a long history like the Judgment Hall, his family, Even his ancestors seemed extraordinarily small.

The time-changing bully was occasionally bullied by others, one can imagine the grievance in his heart, the bald master wanted to walk away, but when he turned his head, he remembered the illustrious status of the attendees this time, suppressed the anger in his heart and snorted coldly , shook off the hand of the female companion beside her and walked towards the auditorium, leaving only the little canary in a fancy dress at a loss, wanting to leave but not daring to leave.

Seeing this situation, Ning Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and a trace of doubt flashed in his heart.The people in the temple took the initiative to arrange this kind of meeting in the form of a reception, and it was hard to say that they were not showing goodwill to the major families in Keke City.But at this moment, they found that they were very strict about the number of people.Maybe the intelligence network was used to collect general information on many families.

Since we want to release good intentions, why not follow through to the end, but instead make people feel uneasy by being strict in this kind of place?

It can only be said that the content of this meeting is not as harmonious and peaceful as its appearance in the cloak of a reception?
"How will I get in later?" Ning Yuan asked in a low voice.

"Just go in with them like this." Miss Anna, who is well versed in nonsense literature, said calmly: "Your name will be on the list."

"Leonardo Ning?"

"Could it be that you have another name?" Anna tilted her head and asked.

Ning Yuan stopped talking now, and the two of them walked forward slowly while maintaining a close attitude. When they passed the inspection by the knights of the Judgment Palace at the door, they both showed their rings on their hands.

The knights in the Hall of Judgment didn't show much expression on their faces, and they didn't even look at their faces at all. After verification, they let the two go.

Ning Yuan was full of doubts, for a moment he didn't know whether the review should be strict or not.At this time, Anna's hand also gently opened his arms, and smiled at him:
"Okay, the task of bringing Mr. Ning in has been completed, and it is up to Mr. Ning to decide whether he wants to come with me or not for the rest of the action."

"You mean...separate action?"

"I want to tie Mr. Ning by my side, but obviously I can't do that." Anna said with a look of regret: "After all, Mr. Ning is still wary of me, isn't he?"

"..."

Isn't that why your behavior is too weird!

It seemed that he felt that the other party helped him so much, and he still felt a little guilty about being wary of others. It was rare for Ning Yuan to speak seriously to the girl: "Anyway... I owe you a thank you."

"You're welcome." Anna smiled lightly, "It looks like I've earned it."

"what?"

"It's nothing. It seems that there are friends you know over there."

Ning Yuan followed Anna's guidance, and as expected, he found two siblings, Lein and Lina of the Pompeii family in the distance. Among them, Lina Pompeii seemed a little nervous.He saw the two of them, nodded slightly to say hello, and then looked at Anna again.

"Mr. Ning, please go ahead." Anna said, "I'm going to have some snacks."

With Anna's departure, the two siblings of the Pompeii family dared to come closer. When the two sides met, the little fat guy Ryan was the first to ask in doubt: "Master Ning... why are you here?"

He seemed a little curious about Ning Yuan's beard and other camouflage.Ning Yuan did not answer this question, but shifted his gaze to Linna lightly: "How is it? Have you found any news?"

"No." Linna replied in a deep voice: "So I just took the opportunity of a toast to ask people who are familiar with our family, and no one knows what the purpose of the Judgment Hall is..."

"Are all the core members of the families here?" Ning Yuan looked around and asked again.

"Well, not too much, not too little, it's all here." Linna lowered her voice, her tone seemed a little worried: "If the visitor is not kind, maybe here..."

It's all going to be wiped out here.

Ning Yuan hummed, and didn't pick up any more, just silently observed the people around him. Even if the core members who can support such a big business are not dragons and phoenixes, most of them are not idiots. He secretly looked at everything with his eyes.

Ning Yuan was observing them, and they were also observing Ning Yuan.

Where there are so-called people, there are rivers and lakes, and there is naturally a chain of contempt among the nobles: those with a long history despise the new upstarts, the upstarts despise those who have fallen in the family and have their faces swollen for appearances, and those who have swollen faces for appearances despise those Even more desolate... Several circles gradually formed and gradually became incompatible with each other.

In fact, Ning Yuan didn't know which circle he should belong to. When Lin Na introduced him to others, she only said that he was her friend.Of course, the tone is naturally a little shy and ambiguous, which makes people unable to help but imagine.

Ning Yuan: The cocktails here seem to be quite delicious...

He didn't bother to pay attention to Linna's social relationship.The purpose of this trip could have been fulfilled when the identity was verified at the gate—if he was the one to be arrested by the Judgment Hall, he should have been martial law on the spot at the gate.However, the behavior of those judgment palace knights only made him more or less doubtful about the inappropriate behavior of the family emblem.

He had made all the preparations to run on the spot, but in the end none of these preparations came to fruition.

Are these people going to catch fugitives?Wouldn't this really allow fugitives to get in easily?
