Mystery: Shadow of Order

Although Rawls' status is relatively low, he has the title of the youngest barrister in Backlund. With a fairly handsome appearance, he also has the elaborate dress of a housekeeper and a personal servant.

So when he first attended this dance, many noble ladies and ladies talked to him, and the meaning of the words was to ask Rawls to invite them to dance. Following the ideas of several noble ladies, Rawls invited them to dance, and then he was wiped out.

Now coupled with the importance of Duke Negan in Lockhard's words, Rawls directly became the meat that fell among the wolves. Even those noble ladies still reserved and would wait for Rawls to invite a dance, those noble ladies would not do so.

Looking at the noble women whose eyes were shining and wanted to communicate with him, Rawls felt that his scalp was tingling.

Suddenly seeing Todd Wolfe's eyes lit up, Rawls walked straight to him and gave the surrounding ladies an apologetic smile.

"Your Excellency Todd, I'm very interested in the Balam Feathered Serpent crown that you just mentioned in the collection of the Wolf family. Can you tell me more?"

Todd also saw the actions of Duke Negan's secretary Lockhard just now, but he had no interest in these as a minor. Hearing Rawls's words, he waved his hand casually:

"As I said, Rawls, we are friends. You don't need to use those honorary titles, just call me Todd." Your Excellency is usually the honorific title for the son of an ordinary earl.

Rawls didn't care, he just made an excuse to avoid those noble ladies, and he was really interested in the quaternary Balam collections collected by the Wolf family, and replied with a smile:

"Okay, I don't know if you can talk about the feathered snake crown, Todd. I heard that it is one of the symbols of the Balam royal family in the fourth era."

"I've also heard this statement." Todd's face showed a smile, and few people were willing to listen to him tell the story a second time, "It is said that the descendants of the Balam royal family in the Southern Continent of the Fourth Epoch are a family named Eggers. , their family emblem is the Feathered Serpent, and the Feathered Serpent is one of the symbols of the **** of death. Our family also collects a mask of the Eggers family, which also has patterns similar to the Feathered Serpent..."

"What's up?"

Rawls, who was hearing the key point, frowned and looked at Todd. Todd patted his head as if he had remembered something. He touched the back of his head, showing a remorseful expression, and said in a low voice:

"I almost forgot, my father wants to see you in the second living room."

Todd stretched out his hand and pointed to the east:

"In that direction." After speaking, he turned his head and left.

Watching Todd leave, Rawls had the urge to strangle him. Why don't you forget it? Did you remember it at a critical time? what should I do?

Rawls, who had itchy teeth with hatred, forcibly restrained the urge to curse, smiled at the guests around him, let out a sigh of relief, tidied up his dress, and walked towards the east side of the banquet hall.

Audrey, who had just reprimanded Susie, returned to the ballroom and immediately became the center of the ballroom guests. With a polite and distant smile, she refused male guests' invitations to dance again and again.

A blond young girl who was almost dressed like Audrey, but wearing less jewelry came over and helped Audrey:

"Audrey, what did you just do? You didn't see what just happened."

Audrey glanced at the girl gratefully and said with a troubled smile:

"Well, Susie was a little scared and hid on the balcony. I went to find it. Jennifer, what just happened?"

As a viewer, it is not only disrespectful to miss the wonderful part, but also bad for the digestion of the potion.

Jennifer is the second daughter of Count Wien, with blonde hair and blue eyes, a sweet smile and light dimples. She covered her mouth in surprise:

"You brought Susie with you too, don't you spoil her too much? If Countess Galia knew, she would definitely drive Susie out!"

"How come, the countess is very friendly. She has met Susie many times."

Audrey showed an embarrassed smile. She didn't want to bring Susie, but she thought that today was a good opportunity to play the "audience", and Susie also drank the "magic potion", so she brought it.

Alas, I just didn't expect it to be more like an audience than itself. After all, who would notice a dog?

So she could only comfort her friend and tell her not to think too badly about Countess Galia. After all, it was only her father, Earl Wayne, who was at odds with Earl Wolf, and the grievance was very small, so there was no need to target the other members of the Wolf family.

"Okay." Seeing that all her friends said so, Jennifer stopped talking about Countess Carrie, but talked about what just happened, "You know, who was Duke Negan's secretary just looking for? ?"

"Who is it?"

She wasn't here just now. Even as a "spectator", Audrey couldn't guess.

"Rolls Adrian, the youngest barrister in Backlund."

Audrey remembered the man with stiff lapels who looked like a barrister who Todd had just talked to. Is that him?

……

Rawls avoided the inexplicably noisy garden ~www.readwn.com~ and walked towards the second living room with a bad look on his face.

Alas, it's no wonder that Ambassador Bakerland can hook up with many noble ladies and ladies. The noble women of Loen are indeed not as conservative as advertised!

Walking into the second living room, a male nobleman in his fifties with a two-stroke beard was sitting on the sofa and waiting. He was smoking a cigar and looked in a good mood.

He heard the footsteps and looked in Rawls's direction. Seeing that Rawls had arrived, he got up and smiled. He lowered the burning end of the cigar with a cigar tong and placed it on the coffee table. He laughed loudly:

"Are you a lawyer Adrian? I heard that Backlund has a 23-year-old barrister. He is indeed young."

Rawls gave a greeting, smiled and said:

"Nice to meet you, the distinguished Earl of Fort Firmin." Fort Firmin is the fief of Earl Wolfe, in East Tucker County.

As a conservative, as a noble earl who honors the land, Wolff is very satisfied with Rawls's etiquette. No wonder he can become a barrister at such a young age. He nodded with satisfaction and said:

"I've heard from Todd that you're a very polite person, Rawls, and he did make a good friend."

"Todd is also very good and knows a lot about the history of the Quaternary."

"That's not bad for him." Count Wolff, who knew the virtue of his youngest son, stroked his beard, "I heard Todd say that you are also very interested in the history of the Quaternary Epoch."

"Yes, after all, I'm only interested in history at Lincoln Law School, but not in sculpture and music."

Rawls said a little joke, which made Earl Wolf laugh again. Earl Wolf, who had studied at the Law School, naturally understood the internal regulations of the academy.
