Chapter 491 Desperate Nidhogg
6:00 pm, Nidhogg Ballroom.
Jing Baiye followed behind Spiatus, Shirley walked beside him, and 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 in his heart the basic etiquette that Belmod had taught him in the past. The system map floated beside him, and many people were marked with their names.
It’s not that he knows them, but that he has seen the information of these people. As long as he knows their names and appearances, the system will automatically record them.
“Sure enough, they’re all celebrities…” There was no emotion in Shirley’s voice.
Jing Baiye compared the information on the system communication panel and confirmed their identities one by one.
The couple not far away are the former Prime Minister and the Prime Minister’s wife.
The next table is the chairman of the Ooka Group, and the girl beside him is his daughter.
Those three identical men are the triplets sons of the chairman of Fuze Group.
A handsome man in a kimono was communicating with a well-known banker, a Japanese national treasure-level Kyogen.
There are high-ranking Japanese police officers, whose status is only under the Chief Inspector of Police.
Jing Baiye glanced at him a few more times.
He had seen this person’s name on the list of bribes… political donations that Spiatus casually showed him.
The blue dot on the map didn’t move, until they approached and were about to pass behind him, the man looked away slightly, glanced at Spiatus indistinctly, and then continued to give instructions to his subordinates.
His subordinate also noticed them, and Jing Baiye opened his eyes slightly when he saw him facing him.
Jing Baiye retracted 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 floor plan of this banquet hall.
A few red dots appeared sporadically, these reds lingering in the corners of the banquet hall, and they would be blocked by other colors on this map at any time.
“…”
This is the first time Jing Baiye feels that the red dots that belong to the enemy will not be dazzling.
Because this light is too weak.
Just like the fireflies in the dark night, it can’t dispel… any darkness.

“Thank you for coming to the Suzuki Foundation’s anniversary sea party. The foundation is today thanks to 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 at the table with a glass of juice. She wanted to keep a low profile, but because the mysterious Karasuma Group chairman was by her side, she could still feel all kinds of eyes shooting from all directions from time to time.
Curious, inquiring, greedy, disdainful…
This is a completely different feeling from being in an organization. It doesn’t have such a blatant killing intent, but it still makes her feel a little uncomfortable.
She frowned slightly, and while they were looking at her, she was also observing them in reverse.
The people attending this banquet were all big people and their descendants. This was the only impression Miyano Shiho had when he came to the banquet hall.
Top chaebol.
Politician.
banker.
Deputy Chief of Police.
They also have their children by their side.
…
These people, no matter what their abilities, whether good or evil, they all represent Japan’s present, and their children represent Japan’s future.
The scene in front of me is simply the epitome of the ugly Japanese hereditary system.
Miyano Shiho quickly looked away and looked at the juice in his hand.
In fact, she is not qualified to think so. After all, she is no different from them.
The daughter of a scientist is a scientist, a descendant of a member of a criminal organization…and a member of the organization.
She glanced at Angstra quietly, because he was wearing that crow brooch, and he received far more attention than her. It’s just that he turned a blind eye to those eyes and was enjoying the food at the banquet with his plate.
He was the only one on the scene who enjoyed his meal. Seeing Angstra as always, Miyano Shiho felt relaxed somewhere in his heart.
“Shibao, what’s wrong with you?”
Miyano Shiho didn’t expect the boss to speak suddenly, he was stunned for a moment, and then replied, “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 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 due to some accident on its maiden voyage…
What kind of postures will these big figures from various fields, who have been able to sit high above because of the hereditary system from birth, show up and struggle to survive?
The thought flashed through his mind clearly, and Miyano Shiho suddenly laughed at himself.
Sure enough, as a member of the organization, she also has black blood flowing through her body, and she actually thinks about such issues, which is different from her still kind sister.
“Titanic…that’s really a good movie.”
Boss smiled, which made his voice sound more gentle.
Miyano Shiho usually doesn’t get along with the boss very much. This is the first time she hears the boss laugh like this, which makes her unable to help raise her head to look at him.
This look made her hair stand on end instantly.
The man in front of her, who sometimes made her feel very similar to Angstra, was indeed smiling, and his smile was very gentle.
However, the moment she saw his eyes~www.readmtl.com~ she seemed to be pushed from the banquet scene to the edge of the cliff, and a bottomless darkness looked down at her from below, swallowing her whole world into it.
“Mr. Crowe!”
The president of the pharmaceutical company who came with them waved to them from a distance, the boss put down his glass and walked there, without leaving any care for them.
Miyano Shiho looked at his back, and his body was still stiff until he walked away.
Her mind was full of that look he had just now.
very scary.
Why can humans show such eyes.
Those eyes, as if…
“Shirley.”
A hand stretched out from the side and touched the back of her hand.
“!!”
Miyano Shiho was startled, as if a crow suddenly pecked his neck, almost smashing the wine glass in her hand, but she quickly realized whose hand it was.
She turned her head and saw Angustra holding the plate in one hand and holding her hand in the other.
The red eyes that are similar to the boss, but opposite, stare at her without blinking.
“Don’t be afraid, Shiho.”
He didn’t care at all 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, no matter what happens, I will protect you.”
