Chapter 4241

"I see, we should indeed go there again tonight; I remember this is the third consecutive week we've gone there, right?"

Xia De asked in confusion again:

"But according to what you said, there are Grey Glove agents in the club, and the club itself may have participated in the process of the thieves selling stolen goods, so whose side does the club stand on?"

Vigo shook her head:

"Although Margaret's eldest brother may be behind the club, that club is not the direct intelligence agency of the eldest prince. Its composition is very complex; as for what role the club played in the theft case, I'm afraid we have to ask it out ourselves.

Of course, if we can master the clues that the eldest prince is related to the theft case..."

Flora, who was listening to the conversation between the two, didn't care about political topics; she just asked:

"The club you mentioned is that very indecent club, right? Vigo, why do you always go to such places with Xia De?"

"It's not that I'm willing; I don't like that kind of dirty place either."

Vigo defended herself, and Flora shook her head:

"Alright then, you go to the club tonight, and I'll stay here to watch the house. After you come back, I'll go to Xia De's place to paint the dragon egg. Vigo, remember to come back early; I've already prepared the ink for the night."

Although she wouldn't go to Yodel Palace tonight, just returning to Tobesk temporarily already made Angelina very happy, not to mention that her friends would all appear tonight.

So Angelina finished the tasks Vigo assigned her early, and asked Miss Rolin to help collect the information summarized from all over the city when she was not there, and then Angelina happily went to choose clothes, and returned to No. 6 St. Deran Square with Xia De who threw away the crystal shoe at five o'clock in the evening.

The house at this time was already very lively; although Galina had not returned yet, Tifa had already prepared the dinner with the maids and Winnie.

The spare large dining table was moved from No. 7 St. Deran Square next door to here, and pieced together into a large table in the living room. The sofa and coffee table were temporarily moved to the wall, and this scene was somewhat like everyone's dinner party during the end-of-year festival.

Luvia, Dorothy, and Galina also arrived soon, followed by Amelia, Ellie, and Danister. Iluna was the last person to arrive; when she walked into No. 6 St. Deran Square, the sky outside was already dark, and the large table in the living room was already filled with sumptuous food.

Ellie and Amelia sat together, listening to Angelina talk about the various operations she had commanded in the past few days. Luvia, Galina, and Danister talked about the information on the 【Son Alliance】 brought by Xia De, while Xia De talked to Dorothy about the partial deformation technique he learned from Flora.

Seeing Iluna arrive, everyone greeted her to wash her hands and sit down quickly. Iluna still wanted to apologize for being late, but everyone didn't want to hear this.

Angelina and Amelia pushed Iluna to the washroom; when the young girls came back, everyone else had already taken their seats. Iluna's seat was arranged between Xia De and Luvia; after she sat down, Luvia handed the wine glass to her, obviously wanting Iluna to say a few words.

But Iluna refused:

"Luvia, I already said I'm not a child anymore. This is not a birthday, just a dinner between friends, so I don't need to express any views separately before dinner starts. I'm already nineteen this year! I've long been an adult!"

Everyone laughed; Luvia looked at Xia De and said pointedly:

"Yes, you are already nineteen this year; by any standard, you are an adult girl."

Xia De didn't hear Luvia's hint; he was just very happy that everyone could celebrate Iluna's birthday:

"Speaking of which, since everyone won't celebrate birthdays after becoming an adult, I'm also an adult, so there's no need to celebrate my birthday this year..."

"No!"

Luvia, Dorothy, Galina, and Danister said together; of course, counting Leisia who must be watching here, there should be five people speaking together at this time.

The simple young girls didn't understand the meaning of their words; Galina asked Xia De quite unhappily:

"When you had your birthday last year, we prepared such unique gifts for you. Xia De, don't you look forward to it this year?"

Obviously, the person who gives the gift cares more about the process of giving the gift than the person who receives the gift. Galina almost wrote "How can you be so selfish" on her face; celebrating a birthday is obviously not just celebrating a birthday.

But speaking of which, it is also a coincidence; today is the 22nd day of the Month of Rain, and Xia De's own birthday is the day he opened his eyes, which is next month, the 22nd day of the Month of Sunshine. Obviously, without Xia De knowing, the girls were already preparing his birthday activities.

But unlike last year, Xia De now knows that the date he came to this world is definitely not that day, because when he opened the "Fate Manual" some time ago, he very accidentally discovered that his age information had changed from "two years old" at the beginning of the year to "three years old."

Although Xia De didn't know which day the change in age specifically happened, he didn't have the habit of opening the "Fate Manual" every day, but this already proved that his "birthday" was a certain day in the spring of 1853, which was completely consistent with Xia De's previous guess.

Iluna was also very happy that so many people celebrated her birthday; after everyone had dinner together, she was reluctant to leave; Luvia saw Iluna's thoughts, so she took the initiative to invite Iluna, Amelia, and Ellie to stay overnight tonight.

Iluna naturally would not refuse, and Amelia didn't want to miss such an interesting opportunity, and Ellie was even happier to live next to Xia De.

Danister also smiled and agreed to the request of the two girls at school to stay overnight; Galina didn't mind these young girls staying overnight, as long as they didn't live in Xia De's bedroom.

Everyone was very happy, only Angelina was unhappy, because she couldn't stay tonight; she had already promised Vigo that she would go back after dinner. Although if she took the initiative to ask to stay tonight, Xia De would definitely help her ask for leave from Vigo, but Angelina finally did not make such a request; the eighteen-year-old red-haired little princess thought she shouldn't be so slack.

Vigo's house has an anti-intrusion interference ritual; Dorothy and Leisia placed the space beacon in the Blue Ink Library. Xia De saw that Angelina was a bit lost, so after Dorothy tore open the space channel to let Angelina return to Arcadia City, Xia De comforted the little princess well in the library.

As for the method of comfort, it was very fairy-tale style... which is a sweet kiss. But no matter what the method was, at least Angelina was happy again:

"Sleeping with friends is something only children would be happy about; big girls should be happy for kisses."

This was Angelina's thought.

After taking Angelina back to the Fragrant Mansion, Xia De and Vigo set off for Hazel Manor. The carriage still drove into the garden from the back door and stopped in front of the garden path; Vigo and Xia De were still wearing the clothes they wore when they first came.

Standing in the night and feeling the warm night breeze, it is now truly the season of early summer.

The club's activities are still held in the greenhouse flower room, but probably because of the season, the flowers decorating the greenhouse at this time are completely different from two weeks ago. After the masked Xia De and Vigo sat on the sofa, they also saw the flower stand on the side filled with bright red roses.

And this time, just after Vigo leaned on Xia De's chest and chatted with him for a few sentences, "Madame Butterfly" shook her feather fan and walked over.

Her clothing was thicker than most people's, so the action of shaking the feather fan was obviously not just to make herself appear elegant. Vigo didn't have a good impression of this woman, but after the other party took the initiative to greet her and Xia De, Vigo still didn't stop her from sitting down.

"Lady Redstone, you see, you have come to our club for three consecutive weeks. Then, as the host of the activity, can I ask about your feelings about the club?"

The eyes behind the mask eye holes narrowed with laughter; Madame Butterfly asked Vigo; Vigo continued to let Xia De hold her, and she joked:

"Madame Butterfly, are there no other new guests in the club recently? You seem very interested in me and my companion."

"Of course, what woman wouldn't be interested in a companion like you?"

Madame Butterfly laughed very dissolutely looking at the intimate actions of Vigo and Xia De; Vigo's mouth twitched:

"I am not the kind of woman who likes to share; if you have nothing to do, please let me and my companion enjoy this night here."

Madame Butterfly shook her head with a smile:

"No, no, of course I have something. Lady Redstone, you should know about the banquet to welcome Princess Margaret tomorrow night, right?"

"No one in Arcadia City doesn't know."

"That banquet has a very strict identity verification process; I know that a lady of your status must be on the invitation list, but there are many ladies who want to see the princess's style but don't have such honor. However, I heard that there are some anonymous invitations for tomorrow night's banquet; Lady Redstone, I wonder if you can get some; the club can pay a high price to acquire them."

"Madame Butterfly, why do you think I can get such invitations?"

Vigo asked nonchalantly, and Madame Butterfly, who had black hair, shook her feather fan with a smile:

"Actually, I have already asked all the guests who I think might have this ability."

Vigo just thought about it and nodded gently; a few anonymous invitations were nothing to her; besides, she had plenty of ways to track who the invitations finally fell into the hands of:

"You asked the right person this time; I do have a few invitations that I don't use. But Madame Butterfly, what price can the club pay to acquire these invitations?"
