Chapter 375: : Semi-Magic, Embarrassing Luncheon (2/2)
Evans himself sat in the main seat.
The tableware on the table top has been arranged neatly.
At this time, he discovered the second suspicious point, that is, their plate styles are different.
Although the main color is bauhinia, the dinner plate in front of Evans all has a circle of purple lace.
But Zong Shen and Vereesa did not.
When Zong Shen already knew what Evans was thinking, he could see many suspicious flaws.
The transparent wine glass in front of them was filled with dark red wine.
Evans took the lead in raising the wine glass, looking at Zong Shen and Vereesa with a sincere expression.
”This glass of pre-dinner wine represents my gratitude.”
”If it weren't for you to return the Requiem in time, I'm afraid I will have to spend another difficult night.”
Zong Shen glanced at the wine glasses in front of him and Vereesa.
Use the guide tips to see if there is a problem with the drink.
However, he found that he hadn't been passive in the wine.
And this wine is a good product of excellent quality.
At least it's better than those fruit wines drunk at the castle dinner.
After confirming that there was no problem with the drink, Zong Shen raised the glass.
Vereesa looked at Zong Shen, and then raised the wine glass.
”Dear Lord Evans.”
”You are too polite, it's just a matter of effort.”
Zong Shen made a perfunctory polite sentence.
Evans heard the words and gently touched his and Vereesa's wine glasses with his own wine glasses.
”Anyway, let us toast to friendship.”
”Cheers for today's meeting.”
After all, Evans drank the full glass of wine in one go.
Zong Shen and Vereesa also drank their drinks.
As soon as they put down the glass, a waiter filled it up.
And the butler Isido also walked over from the living room.
Standing beside Evans waiting.
After the first cup of pre-dinner wine, Evans took the initiative to pick up the knife and fork.
”You are welcome, you two, please start to eat.”
”The claws of the East China Sea big crayfish are drizzled with creamy soup. They are absolutely delicious.”
Evans said very enthusiastically.
After speaking, he suddenly seemed to remember something
Asked with some doubts.
”By the way, why didn't your other subordinates come?”
Zong Shen gently picked up the knife in his right hand and played with it, and replied with a calm expression on his face.
”They have another task to complete, so they can't come to the banquet.”
Hearing always said that, Evans's face showed just the right expression of regret.
Seeing that neither Zong Shen nor Vereesa had any plans to eat, he took the initiative to use a fork to pick up a cracked crab leg.
The red and white crab legs have distinct slivers of meat, which look full and fresh.
He scraped the crab legs to the side of the dinner plate with a dining knife, picked up a small bowl and poured some creamy soup on it, and ate it deliciously.
”Two of you, hurry up and eat.”
”These are fresh goods from the Boundless East China Sea.”
”The climate in the East China Sea has changed recently, and the waves in the coastal waters have become more and more turbulent.”
”Occasionally, there are ferocious giant sea monsters abnormally appearing offshore.”
”This has severely affected the coastal fisheries.”
Evans took the initiative to eat, greeted Zong Shen again, and at the same time began to try to distract Zong Shen's attention.
I saw Zong Shen staring at the dishes intently.
Sweeping his gaze over every plate, he knew it in his heart right now.
No wonder Evans uses a different plate from them.
All the dinner plates in front of Evans indicate that these foods are safe and can be eaten with confidence.
And the dinner plates around him and Vereesa, including the remaining unallocated food, all had diametrically opposite prompts from before.
These foods are not safe. The requiem powder has been thoroughly mixed into the food. According to your physique, you will fall asleep within ten minutes if you take one bite. If you eat more, this time will be further shortened.
Evans on the side was eating hard, trying to seduce Zong Shen and the others from his appetite.
He still has certain information about Requiem Powder.
This is not the first time he has used this thing.
It can almost be called a trial and error.
These requiem powders purified and refined by the pharmacist have turned into a state similar to crystalline powder.
It is colorless and tasteless, and it is not poisonous, after all, its effect is only to make people fall into a drowsiness.
Even those senior pharmacists may not be able to find out.
Unless they taste it themselves, they will surely be succumbed to it.
The only difference is that the effective time is different.
But seeing that Zong Shen didn't react at all, Vereesa looked at Zong Shen the whole time, but did not start eating or drinking.
At the huge table, only Evans was eating and drinking.
This makes the scene a bit awkward, and Evans is not easy to ask them.
Because before, he had greeted several times.
Zong Shen was playing with a table knife with his right hand, his index finger was slightly bent, and he tapped gently on the table three times.
This movement was quickly caught by Vereesa, and she knew it in her heart right now.
At the same time, Zong Shen's careless movement was also seen by Evans.
He originally felt guilty because Zong Shen and the others did not have a meal.
Now that I saw Zong Shen's actions, I understood ~~ that the other party had indeed come prepared.
The delicious food in my mouth suddenly no longer fragrant.
He swallowed the food in his mouth and wiped his mouth with a napkin.
At the same time, he let out a soft cough.
Isido, who had been standing by behind him, immediately understood what Evans meant.
Isido is also observing the situation on the table.
Naturally, he also understood that Zong Shen and the others had come prepared.
At this time, Zong Shen couldn't take care of them anymore, he decided to start acting now.
”Where are the clues about the Night Demon?”
Zong Shen began to ask the Raiders promptly.
Lines of golden subtitles jumped out quickly and appeared in front of Zong Shen's eyes.
There is a folding space hidden in the manor. The magic props to open the space are on the body of the butler, Isido. You need to enter the magic of the space to open it.
After Zong Shen read the caption prompts, he understood why Evans hadn't revealed any flaws for so many years.
He didn't know what method or space magic props had been used, and he actually built a folding space in the manor.
All folding spaces, as the name suggests, are folded spaces.
The folding space can only be arranged in a fixed position and cannot be moved at will.
It belongs to a small subspace created by the original space.
In the folding space, as long as you don't open the portal, you won't be found.
Of course, if there are those space magicians who are proficient in space magic, they can judge whether there is folding space here by sensing the changes in space.
Zong Shen's gaze immediately turned to Isido, who had always had no sense of existence.
Only then discovered that the other party has a rare space magic talent.
And his aptitude is equally extraordinary, even reaching the level of rare!
