Chapter 1410

Soothing music played in the banquet hall. After politely declining several handsome young men, the assistant carried a plate of rich food to a corner. In her view, these men exuding a faint fragrance were all sissies.

The assistant forked a small piece of meat. As the meat entered her mouth, she squinted, her expression joyful.

Just as the assistant was enjoying the food, a slightly low male voice came from behind her.

"It seems you don't like this atmosphere."

Hearing this voice, the assistant, who was enjoying the food, sighed inwardly. If she had encountered this situation in the past, she would have drawn the gun at her waist and let the other party reorganize their language.

"Hmm."

The assistant responded casually and continued to enjoy the food.

"When I was in my teens, I also hated this fake atmosphere. Everyone wears a mask, a smiling mask."

A man wearing a morning coat and behaving gently sat beside the assistant. He placed a dinner plate on the table, which contained only a few types of vegetables and a small amount of meat.

The man smiled politely at the assistant, then stopped chatting with her and began to enjoy his dinner slowly.

"You are very unique, and also very suspicious."

The man swallowed his food and looked at the assistant with a smile in his eyes.

Hearing this, the assistant's slender fingers curled into claws, ready to snap the man's throat at any time.

"Calm down."

Su Xiao's voice came from the assistant's ear. The man sitting beside the assistant was no small character; he was the son of the wealthy merchant Hennason. Through the surveillance equipment, Su Xiao had noticed this guy. This guy's name was Orlando, and many people in the banquet hall recognized him.

"Suspicious?"

The assistant looked at Orlando with confusion in her eyes.

"Of course, everyone else is wearing a mask, only you are not. Isn't that suspicious?"

Orlando considered himself witty in his teasing, but in reality, he had already walked through the gates of hell. What he didn't know was that this seemingly weak girl beside him had once killed a four-meter-tall brown bear with her bare hands. For this girl to snap his throat would be as simple as snapping a twig.

"Pfft~"

The assistant laughed. She wasn't laughing at Orlando's 'wit', but at the fact that the other party had almost died from a misunderstanding.

"So, I am indeed very suspicious."

The assistant looked Orlando up and down.

"So, what I said still makes some sense. Let's get to know each other, I am Orlando."

Orlando began to chat with the assistant on a different frequency. The conversation between the two seemed fine, but in reality, they were not on the same channel at all. Orlando thought he was witty, while the assistant had almost killed him.

"This..."

"Out of etiquette in human society, you should also give your name."

Orlando began to think he was humorous again. However, the name of the identity the assistant was pretending to be was simply too long. In such a place, one needed to introduce their full name when introducing themselves.

"I am... Octavia Bartholomew."

The assistant didn't understand why there would be a name with such strange pronunciation.

"A young lady of the Bartholomew family? What a coincidence. My father was a business partner with the Bartholomew family when he was young. Inviting Miss Octavia here this time is also a matter of course; after all, my father is quite nostalgic."

Clearly, Orlando was starting to make conversation for the sake of it.

The assistant really wanted to kick him out, but she couldn't do that. If she couldn't suppress the anger in her heart and kicked Orlando flying, not to mention whether she could leave the banquet hall alive, even if she did, she would be hung from a tree and whipped by Su Xiao.

"Mr... Orlando."

The assistant smiled, her gaze fixed on Orlando.

"Does Miss Octavia have any advice?"

Orlando felt he wasn't far from success.

"Disturbing others while they are dining is a very impolite behavior. So, out of politeness, please shut up, sir."

The assistant's smile was like a flower, and her laugh was sweet, but the words she spoke were piercing.

"Uh~"

Orlando had thought about being rejected, but he hadn't expected the other party to actually tell him to shut up. Although it sounded very polite, he always felt it was strange.

"Excuse me."

Orlando stood up with the demeanor of a gentleman. Just as he turned around, the muscles on his face began to twitch. Undoubtedly, he had been very embarrassed today.

Inside the kitchen, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang arrived at the back door unhurriedly. With the help of an apprentice opening the door, it took the opportunity to leave the kitchen.

Inside several utility rooms next to the kitchen, dozens of alchemy bombs were stuck everywhere. The total amount was about the weight of one alchemy bomb. Xiang Bubu only needed to create chaos, not destroy the Flower Tree Restaurant.

Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang was ready, and the assistant, who was enjoying the food, wiped her mouth and reached into her skirt.

Orlando, who had been paying attention to the assistant, saw this scene and was stunned. Perhaps he had seen too many elegant ladies and suddenly encountered a 'heroine' like the assistant, causing his brain to somewhat crash.

Noticing Orlando's gaze, the assistant turned her head, the corners of her mouth curling up in a smile with quite a bit of soldier-like temperament.

Since when had Orlando seen such a girl? This man who galloped in the business world was clearly attracted to the assistant's wildness.

Sss~

The assistant walked along the wall, pressing the spray device. Colorless mist spread as she walked forward.

"What's that smell?"

"This is... kerosene?"

"Must be an illusion. How could there be kerosene in the banquet hall... Eh, I think I smell it too."

The assistant's steps became faster and faster. Soon, an area in the banquet hall was filled with the smell of kerosene.

Inside the banquet hall, Buck, sitting behind Dubo Yisi, suddenly put down the large beer mug in his hand, his nose twitching.

"It's here."

Buck stood up with a 'whoosh'. The distinguished guests near him looked confused.

Buck ignored these people. His gaze scanned the surroundings, and soon, he locked onto someone.

The assistant, who was walking slowly, paused. A feeling of hair standing on end appeared. This feeling was very strange; she seemed to have turned into a small tree, and a lumberjack holding a short axe stood before the tree. As a small tree, she had no power to resist.

"Don't turn your head."

Su Xiao's voice entered the assistant's ear. Unfortunately, it was a bit late. The assistant turned her head, and her peripheral vision met a gaze.

"Heh."

Buck bared his spiral steel fangs, and at the next moment, an explosion came from the back of the Flower Tree Restaurant.

The impact of the explosion spread, instantly shattering the two doors at the back of the banquet hall.

Broken wood and flames poured into the banquet hall. Before the guests in the banquet hall could scream, the flames spread throughout the hall.

With a 'whoosh', half of the banquet hall was engulfed in flames. The gaseous kerosene was ignited.

At the very moment the flames spread, Su Xiao in the hotel diagonally opposite the restaurant pulled the trigger.

Bang!

A low gunshot rang out. The outer wall of the hotel where Su Xiao was located was instantly covered in cracks. In no more than three shots, the hotel would be destroyed by the recoil of the Duke of Silence.
