6 p.m., Nieder Hoag Ballroom.

Jing Baiye followed behind Spiatus, Shirley walked beside him, and people from the other two groups followed behind the three of them.

They came to the banquet hall, which was full of invited guests.

Jing Baiye revisited the basic etiquette that Belmode taught him in the past, and the system map floated beside him, with many people's names marked on it.

It's not that he knows them, but that he has read the profiles of these people. As long as he knows their names and appearances, the system will automatically record them.

"Sure enough, they are all celebrities..." Shirley couldn't hear any emotion in her voice.

Jing Baiye compared the information on the system's communication panel to confirm their identities one by one.

The couple not far away are the former prime minister and his wife.

The next table is the chairman of Ooka Group, and the girl next to him is his daughter.

Those three men who look exactly the same are the triplet sons of the chairman of Fuze Group.

A handsome man in a kimono is talking to a well-known banker. He is a Japanese national treasure Kyogen.

Over there are high-ranking Japanese police officers, just under the police chief.

Jing Baiye looked at him a few more times.

He had seen this man's name on the list of bribes... political donations that Spiatus casually showed him.

The blue dot on the map remained motionless until they approached and were about to pass behind him. The man moved his eyes slightly, gave Spiatus a faint glance, and then continued to give instructions to his subordinates.

His subordinate also noticed them, Jing Baiye saw him facing her, eyes slightly wide open.

Jing Baiye withdrew his gaze, did not stop for the red dot, and followed Spiatus forward.

On the system map, white dots and blue dots are densely intertwined, forming the main color of the plan of the banquet hall.

A few red dots appeared sporadically, and these reds scattered around the corners of the banquet hall, and would be blocked by other colors on this map at any time.

"..."

This was the first time that Jing Baiye felt that the red dots belonging to the enemy would not be dazzling.

Because the light is too weak.

Like a firefly in the dark night, it can't dispel... any darkness at all.

——

"Thank you for coming to the Suzuki Foundation's anniversary sea party. The Foundation's existence today depends on your support and love."

"Let's forget about our troubles today and enjoy this sea trip with 500 guests!"

The chairman of the Suzuki Group finished his speech on the stage, and the banquet was just beginning.

Miyano Shiho was standing by the table holding a glass of juice. She wanted to keep a low profile, but because the mysterious chairman of the Karasuma Group was beside her, she could still feel all kinds of eyes shooting from all directions from time to time.

Curious, probing, greedy, disdainful...

This is a completely different feeling from being in the organization, without such a bright killing intent, it still makes her feel a little uncomfortable.

She frowned slightly, and while they were looking at her, she was also observing them in turn.

All the people who participated in this banquet were big figures and their descendants. This was Miyano Shiho's only impression when he came to the banquet hall.

Top chaebol. …

politician.

banker.

Deputy Superintendent of Police Department.

There are also their children.

…

These people, no matter what their abilities are, whether they are good or evil, they all represent the present of Japan, and their children represent the future of Japan.

The scene in front of me is simply the epitome of the ugly Japanese hereditary system.

Miyano Shiho quickly looked away, looking at the juice in his hand.

In fact, she has no right to think so, after all, she is no different from them.

A scientist's daughter is a scientist, the offspring of a member of a criminal organization...and a member of an organization.

She secretly glanced at Angostella, because he was wearing the crow brooch, and he received far more attention than she did. It's just that he turned a blind eye to those gazes and was enjoying the food at the banquet with a plate.

He was the only one who had a good meal at the scene. Seeing Angostella as usual, Miyano Shiho relaxed somewhere in his heart.

"Shiho, what's wrong with you?"

Miyano Shiho didn't expect the boss to speak suddenly, he was taken aback for a moment, and then replied: "It's nothing, I just... happened to think of a movie I watched not long ago."

She turned her head to look at the miniature in front of her again, and whispered the name of the movie.

"-Titanic."

On the surface is an unforgettable love, but on the inside is the huge disaster that the maiden voyage sank and thousands of people lost their lives.

Miyano Shiho slowly clenched the cup in his hand,

If...if this ship, like the Titanic, sank in some accident on its maiden voyage...

What kind of posture will these big figures from various fields, who have been able to sit high since birth because of the hereditary system, struggle to survive?

This thought clearly flashed through his mind, and Miyano Shiho suddenly laughed at himself.

Sure enough, as a member of the organization, she also has black blood flowing from her body, and she would actually think about such a problem, which is different from her still kind sister.

"Titanic...that was a really good movie."

The boss smiled, which made his voice sound more gentle.

Miyano Shiho didn't have many opportunities to get along with the BOSS, this was the first time she heard the BOSS laughing like this, which made her unable to help raising her head to look at him.

This glance made her hair stand on end in an instant.

The man in front of her, who sometimes made her feel very similar to Angustra, was indeed smiling, a very gentle smile.

However, the moment she saw his eyes, she seemed to be pushed from the banquet scene to the edge of the cliff, and a bottomless darkness looked down on her from below, engulfing her whole world in it.

"Mr. Crowe!"

The president of the pharmaceutical company who came with them waved to them from a distance, the boss put down his wine glass and walked there, without leaving any words of concern to them.

Miyano Shiho looked at his back, until he walked away, his whole body was still stiff.

Her mind was full of the look in his eyes just now.

very scary.

Why can humans show such eyes.

That look, as if...

"Shirley."

A hand reached out ~lightnovelpub.net~ from the side and touched the back of her hand.

"!

"

Miyano Shiho was startled, as if a crow had suddenly pecked her neck, and almost threw the wine glass out of her hand, but she quickly realized whose hand it was.

She turned her head and saw Angostella carrying the plate with one hand and holding her hand with the other.

The red eyes, which were similar to the BOSS but completely opposite, looked at her without blinking.

"Don't be afraid, Shiho."

He didn't care that her hands were sweaty because of excessive fear, as if to give her strength, he held her hand tightly.

"We are friends." He said seriously, "With me here, no matter what happens, I will protect you."
