Chapter 367 Player: What do I need to exchange for the boat ticket? NPC: His Excellency the Earl
The other party came to cause trouble for Helena.
Mo Cheng came to this conclusion in an instant because he never caused trouble.
Of course, if there really is trouble, he will solve it on the spot and will not leave much room for others to cause trouble later.
After all, I have a lot of things to do and I am busy. There is no need to make unpleasant things happen for so long.
Mo Cheng thinks he is a kind, even fussy guy.
I will never offend strangers in a strange city.
He is quite confident in his own moral standards and his tactful way of handling things.
"Let's go in first."
Helena had a blank expression on her face, but the blue veins on the back of her hand told Mo Cheng that she was enduring.
"Do you need help?"
He borrowed someone else's carriage and they were also business partners, so it was neither right nor moral for him to turn a blind eye.
"No need." Helena suddenly laughed, "Let's go in first. There's no need to argue with others in this situation."
Mo Cheng could tell at a glance from the curve of the mouth and the smile on the face that it was a trained fake smile.
Since the parties involved had said so, Mo Cheng did not want to intervene and immediately walked towards the interior of the manor.
Mo Cheng and Helena didn't intend to pay attention to him, but the young man who spoke did not agree.
"stop!"
The young man stood in front of Mo Cheng and questioned Helena, "Selanis, you, a dirty and shameless murderer, dare to appear in front of people! Tell me, when you fell asleep late at night, did you hear the wailing of the people who died in your hands?"
The sudden conflict caused all the guests at the entrance of the manor to look over here and whisper to each other. It was obvious that this was not the first time they had seen such a scene.
Seeing that the other party was blocking her way, Helena took a deep breath, raised her head and said, "Mr. Sally Gary, first of all, we must make one thing clear. The sinking of the fleet is something that no one wants to see. The Seranis family has already negotiated compensation with each family and agreed on a time for this. At this moment, it is not yet the time agreed with the Gary family, so you don't need to come here specifically to remind them."
"Also, I'm very sorry about your brother's accident. I understand your pain and can tolerate your anger, but please remember..."
Helena said word by word: "More people died in the Seranis fleet than in yours. My three uncles were also buried in the sea!"
"Now, please get out of the way!"
Mo Cheng listened silently at the side without saying anything. But he probably heard what the contradiction was, probably that Sally's family cooperated with Seranis, and his brother happened to be on the sunken ship when the fleet was in trouble.
The victims' families believe that the Seranis family should bear full responsibility.
Mo Cheng really wanted to say something between the two of them: " No one wants this kind of accident to happen."
However, after looking at the scene, he did not say anything. Mo Cheng did not know much about the shipwreck, so he would not speak rashly.
However, continuing to stand still at the door was not a solution. Mo Cheng suspected that many guests were already watching their joke.
"Well, we are here to attend Viscount Nidas' banquet. May I ask if you are the owner of this manor?"
Mo Cheng smiled and said, "If not, could you please move aside? You are blocking my way to the banquet."
Only then did Sally notice that there was a man in priest's clothes next to Helena.
He frowned and asked, "Who are you? This is a matter between nobles."
The implication is that Mo Cheng should not interfere in matters between the two families.
"An external medical staff member of the Fairhaven Law Enforcement Corps, the head of the Albert House, a collaborator of the Muzel Archmage Research Corps, the guardian knight of Princess Mishas, and the hereditary earl appointed by Queen Caroline."
Mo Cheng rolled his eyes and stated his identity one by one. He really wanted to just say his name, but looking at the situation, he thought the other party would not leave on his own if he didn't use his identity to pressure him.
I had intended to get along with you as an ordinary person, but what I got in return was the trouble of having your door blocked.
I won’t pretend anymore. I am the Count and I am telling you my cards!
"So, this Mr. Sally..."
Mo Cheng pushed up his glasses and asked softly, "How long do I need to wait at the door before I can ask you to move aside and let me pass?"
Sally's face turned pale and blue, and he bowed to Mo Cheng, "Forgive me, Count, I didn't mean to disturb your enjoyment of the banquet."
Having said that, Sally left without looking back, and it was obvious that he would not attend the next banquet.
At the same time, a fat man came out of the manor.
Well, a flexible fat man.
It was hard for Mo Cheng to imagine how a body that could be seen at a glance as having at least two of the three highs could move so quickly in a place with a lot of people without bumping into anyone.
"Ahaha, the hero who saved Fairhaven, I hope you will enjoy my banquet."
Viscount Nidas's speech and actions seem a bit exaggerated, giving people the feeling of being a social bully.
Mo Cheng stretched out his right hand and shook hands with the other party, "I hope my coming did not disturb you."
"How could it be!"
Viscount Nidas' eyes widened with an exaggerated expression, "If I had known in advance that you, Count Mo Cheng, were coming, I would have prepared the most magnificent banquet so that the entire city could see the lights here."
"That's exaggerated, but thank you for the compliment."
Viscount Nidas led the way in front while the three of them started chatting. Most of the time, Viscount Nidas and Mo Cheng were talking about some meaningless words. Occasionally, when Mo Cheng couldn't answer, Baroness Helena would come to smooth things over.
Isabella, Theresa, and Lilia were led into the hall. Following Viscount Nidas's lead, they visited his garden and then came to a secluded place.
"Your Excellency the Count wants a ticket for the Steel Cruise?"
"I need to go to the Kingdom of Bezeko to deal with some matters. It's urgent, and your ship is the only one that can leave soon."
After hearing Mo Cheng's intention, Viscount Nidas waved his hand and agreed, "No problem, seats for four passengers, right? I'll ask them to prepare the best cabins."
Maybe it was because the Earl’s status was really high enough, but Mo Cheng got the first-class tickets for the Steel Cruise very easily. And judging from Viscount Nidas’s reaction, he didn’t have to pay for these tickets.
To be honest, Mo Cheng was already prepared for the possibility of triggering a mission and going through a series of events before he could get the ticket.
Based on his previous experiences in the [foreign land], this idea could not be considered wrong.
But Mo Cheng did not accurately anticipate the value of the title of "Hereditary Earl" in the aristocratic circle.
