Chapter 345: Group play for 1 person

After listening to the producer Morris's new movie about the murder of a nobleman, Li Changheng quickly glanced at everyone present.

Finding that most people didn't care, they continued to eat, drink, talk and laugh.

The hairs on Li Changheng's back stood up.

A icy chill hits the sky.

In my heart, among the people present, shouldn't everyone expect John Gosford to die except for himself?

How many failures have to be done to make this happen?

Then Silvia kept flattering the old man Mountbatten.

He is said to be the most brave and eloquent of the noble race, and he is also a person who really dares to face and has experienced the test of life and death.

He also said that he was born noble and was a true born nobleman.

Then he complained that in the eyes of Old Gosford, there were only his own thoroughbred horses, hounds, hunting and money, and the mistress of himself had no right to know anything.

After Li Changheng listened, Yu Guang immediately glanced at Old Gosford, and saw a flash of anger in his eyes.

My wife has a leg with others, not only flattering her concubine in public, but also criticizing him in public. This is simply a slap in the face in public.

Later, what made Li Changheng even more surprising was that the English actress named Mabel was also a socialite who had in-depth exchanges with Jeffrey and Feld.

Actually reached out and held Old Gosford's hand, and then looked at Silvia and said, "You are too unfair. Isn't the life of a nobleman just hunting, horses, hounds, and money?"

"shut up."

Old Gosford looked at Mabel incredulously, and saw the woman with a frightened expression.

The old man's eyes quickly turned away from Mabel's hand with confusion and regret.

He grabbed the napkin on his lap and stood up in a panic, then threw the napkin on his plate, and walked out of the restaurant in a hurry.

He will behave like this.

One is that she doesn't like Silvia, but she can't change the status of the countess in this family, and she is not lower than herself.

Even in places like restaurants, the advantage of female status makes Silvia more respectable than him.

Now a woman who is only dew-bound, and not yet a noble's socialite.

In front of the prince, the duke, a group of nobles, as well as the hostess's aunt, younger sister and other family members, he hit the hostess in the face.

This was not only slapped Silvia in the face, but also slapped him in the face of Earl Gosford and the Gosford family.

Even if the nobles are in despair, many people would rather borrow to save face.

You know how much they value family honor and personal reputation.

The host was gone, and the guests all looked at the countess Silvia.

She saw her smiling and holding a knife and fork, cutting off a piece of fish and putting it in her mouth.

Everyone continued to eat with different expressions.

After Li Changheng glanced at Silvia, seeing that she really didn't care, he couldn't help looking at Isabel Gosford again.

I saw that although her face was shocked, she didn't have much anger or dissatisfaction.

Well, the family's feelings are really indifferent.

As for the guests, no one cared about it for a while and laughed again.

As for the troublemaker, Mabel didn't feel embarrassed at all. He turned his head and laughed with Ivor Novel, who was also a star who was sitting on her left.

Li Changheng suddenly wondered why this woman could sit on the left side of Old Gosford.

According to the tradition of the nobility, the main seat and vice seat of the long table are on both sides of the long table, that is, the place where only one person can sit facing the restaurant door and the back of the restaurant door is the position of the host and the hostess.

There is also a more formal point, which is also used to receive guests whose status is higher than the host.

It is to use the middle position with the back against the fireplace as the main position.

It's like Andrew came today. Normally, Old Gosford sits in the middle position with his back against the fireplace, and Andrew sits in the middle position opposite him.

This way of sitting, even if Philip came, there would be no objection.

But probably the old Gosford thought he was Andrew's uncle, or he wanted to show that he was superior.

In short, according to his previous habit, he would not sit face to face with Andrew.

Then Andrew sat next to the fireplace. Although Mountbatten had the title of Duke, his true title was a hereditary earl.

Sitting behind the two marquis Perelin and Yit, also said the past.

Of course, he wants to be Andrew's side, Perelin and Yit are not at all, nor dare to disagree.

Then there were three more ladies between Andrew, Perelin, and Ytte, so that Mountbatten was sitting next to Silvia.

Li Changheng looked at this kind of seating at this time, it was impossible not to think about it.

There is always a way to sit, which is deliberately arranged.

Except for the old Gosford, only Silvia had this right and ability.

At this time, Li Changheng was truly sure, and some people really wanted the old Gosford to die.

The only key to saving him is whether this old man really planted special tobacco on his own land.

If there is, then it is also certain that he also planted it in other nobles.

Because Li Changheng quickly remembered that Andrew said last year that he was dating an Earl's daughter named Thalia Crawford.

In addition to seeing the girl's beauty, the purpose is to know why the Crawford family suddenly became rich.

The same earl, also living on the land, then suddenly began to get rich.

If this were just an example, it would not make Li Changheng feel too suspicious.

But if there are two identical examples, there is a problem.

Then Li Changheng suddenly thought that perhaps it was not the old Gosford controlling everything, but the gray gang leader named Mickey, who really controlled all this?

In a moment, he decided to watch Count Gosford go to see God.

Don't care about killing a gray gang.

If Lorraine is allowed to act, the people of Scotland Yard have no right to bother.

But let Li Changheng kill a nobleman, who is still Anne's mother's cousin, and that would be more troublesome.

As soon as the dinner was over, Li Changheng, Bell and others followed the troops back to the manor’s living room.

He picked up the phone and called Zhang Tianzhi, asking him to come over with Tyson Frankie.

Then Bell and the others didn't go to the separate bridge room~lightnovelpub.net~ but sat on a small table in the reception room with an area of ​​more than 100 square meters.

Because Li Changheng knows that staying here is the safest place if it doesn't interfere with others.

Of course he also did the necessary precautions.

Waiting for Zhang Tianzhi and Tyson Ferranch to arrive, plus the ace agent Harriet Ha, and Lorraine Theron, a female agent comparable to 007.

Without a whole team of commandos, it would be impossible to surprise Li Changheng, Andrew and others.

If there were only a dozen Gray Gang members, it probably wouldn't be enough for Hart and Lorraine Theron to kill two people.

Let Kondela, the butler standing at the drinking table in the meeting room, go get the poker.

He wants to stay here, and of course Bell and others won't leave.

Together with Felder and Grosvenor, exactly four people started playing Texas Hold'em.

Not long after Harry Hart came in, Li Changheng smiled and stood up and led him to the window.
