A greeting gift?
Silin looked at Huimao's eager expression and smiled. "What do you want to do?"
Many aristocrats liked to use elegance to flaunt themselves. In fact, apart from their bright appearance, some people's hearts were dirtier than the public garbage dump in AF1. For example, some of the people who had spoken just now.
Therefore, Silin did not stop Huimao's revenge.
On some of the starships and aircrafts that were rushing to the wedding, many people were still talking. In order to show off their influence in this circle, many people started video calling each other before they even met each other. They talked and laughed in a familiar tone. The topic quickly changed from belittling Silin's "small" and "shabby" aircraft to the people and gifts that he had brought this time.
However, as they were talking and laughing, they found that the image on the screen began to blur. Not long after, the screen became clear again, but it was not the image of the other party. Instead, it was another scene — on the vast grassland, two elephants were performing primitive impulsive movements...
For a moment, the people on the surrounding aircrafts and starships were dead silent.
Not only these people, but even Silin, who was sitting in the aircraft, after seeing this image, his face twitched for a long time.
"Where did you get these films?" Silin asked as he pinched Huimao's ear. He really did not know that this cat was so wretched. It actually knew how to hide films.
Huimao said proudly, "I got them from King Kong! That guy is still hiding it from others! "
"Then why didn't you bring out two gorillas, but two elephants?"
"It's not good to let gorillas out. If King Kong knew about it, he would be shy."
Shy … He even hid so many films, and they were of different species. The animals in AF1 were not well-behaved.
The nobles on the starship were so angry that their faces turned blue. It was obvious that someone had hacked into their starship's network and signal receiving system, but no one had discovered it, and no alarm had sounded. According to their usual practice, they would have been furious, but after all, this place was close to the wedding venue, and everyone was paying attention to it. Therefore, they could only investigate in secret and did not dare to say anything.
It would be too embarrassing to say it out loud. Should they ask everyone they met, "Hey, do you have elephants?" That would be a complete loss of face for the nobles.
The patrol fleet stationed on the periphery of the planet did not notice this anomaly because Huimao did not target them. The patrol team was still carrying out their mission, and the ceremonial team was already waiting at the spaceport.
If they wanted to leave the starship and spaceplane at the spaceport, the people in charge of reception in the ceremonial team would help them with that, and then send a spaceplane to take them to the planet. If they wanted to fly directly into the planet, they would give the guests a map with the docking point marked on it. At the same time, there would be special guides in charge of navigating the way.
Many aristocrats who brought a large number of troops into the planet would not bring all of their troops into the planet. They did this for safety and to show off their family's financial and material resources.
To enter the planet, one would definitely need identification. For fleets with a large number of troops, the reception staff at the periphery would only say a few words to them and let them pass. For people like Silin, who had the advantage of flying alone and did not have the special aristocratic emblem, they would definitely have to check more closely.
The ceremonial team at the spaceport had already issued a rather polite reminder for Silin to park the spaceport, where there would be specialized personnel to receive and check the pass card and invitation.
Silin flew the spaceport according to the guidance shown by the received signal. He had nothing to worry about. He had the pass card and invitation. Even if he did not have an aristocratic background, these people would not make things difficult for him.
After flying in through a passage opened by the spaceport and stopping the spaceport, Silin opened the hatch. There were already people waiting not far away. The higher the aristocracy, the more they understood the word "etiquette". Even if these were all on the surface, they would not neglect it.
Therefore, the reception staff did not show any disdain or contempt towards Silin even though he did not have the aristocratic emblem on him during the identity verification. They still maintained a smile on their faces.
"Hello, Mister Silin, is it? I am Riddo, the person in charge of reception sent by the Lohr Family. It is a pleasure to have you here. "The immaculately dressed middle-aged man walked over and bowed politely.
The Lohr Family was Ulaganuo's cousin's family. They were a member of the upper nobility, and although they were not as powerful as Teita's military giant Yurong Family or Naimi's Sizer Family who made a fortune by building flying cars, the Lohr Family still had a certain amount of influence in the business world. They had a lot of connections and connections, or the Gleeson Family wouldn't have agreed to this marriage and made such a big fuss.
"Hello." Silin did not say much and took out the invitation letter and entry pass of his own accord. If he didn't take the initiative, this man would beat around the bush and say a lot more.
He caught the invitation letter and entry pass with both hands and placed them on a machine to verify their authenticity. However, when he saw the small pattern displayed on the machine when it scanned the entry pass, the smile on Riddo's face grew a little wider and more sincere.
After the verification was complete, Riddo handed the invitation letter and entry pass back to Silin with both hands. At the same time, he bowed a little wider than before, "Thank you for coming!"
Silin accepted the invitation letter and entry pass. He asked if there was anything else he needed to check, but Riddo shook his head with a smile and took out a map projection to personally explain the flight route to Silin after they entered the planet.
Someone who could receive guests here was definitely not an ordinary servant. It could be said that Riddo was definitely a trusted aide of the Lohr family. After all, if this matter was not handled properly, they would become enemies with the Lohr family. In the process, they would have to face many nobles. Those who could recognize the faces of these nobles would definitely be among them. Therefore, even if this person's status in the Lohr family was not high, it was definitely not low either.
In fact, after checking the invitation letter and entry pass, they still had to do an identity check. In any case, the people who would come here would not be big nobles, so they were not afraid of being criticized for a few more checks. However, after hearing Silin's question, Riddo decisively shook his head.
The entry pass in Silin's hand in Kari's hand contained a joint pattern of the Lohr family and the Gleason family. This joint pattern would only appear when the entry pass was scanned by a machine. Although there were many entry passes given out for this wedding, and they all looked the same on the surface, they were not actually the same. The entry passes that were given to Ulaganuo were the ones from the Gleason family and the Lohr family with a high-grade pattern. This meant that they would be treated with high standards.
It was no wonder that Riddo would react this way after seeing the pattern. In fact, even Riddo himself was surprised. He could not believe that a person who did not have a noble identity would receive such a high-grade entry pass.
Seeing Riddo's reaction, Silin knew that there was definitely a secret behind it. However, Silin did not have the time to be curious about it. After Riddo expressed that there was nothing else, Silin returned to the spaceship and flew it towards the planet.
After Silin flew the spaceship away, Riddo immediately contacted his master, the father of the wedding's bridegroom, a core member of the Lohr family.
After Riddo told him about Silin's matter, the core member of the Lohr family remained silent for a while. Then, he asked Riddo to tell him about the information and serial number of the spaceship that had been scanned.
Reid reported the serial number that he had scanned along with a few other pieces of data as he quietly waited for the other party's orders.
"So it's this …" His tone was filled with surprise.
Some spaceships and starships had serial numbers that were not as simple as they seemed on the surface. They contained hidden sequences, and these hidden serial numbers were coded characters. Only those who understood the meaning of these characters would be able to understand the meaning behind them.
The people behind spaceships and starships with hidden serial numbers were all influential figures in the Empire.
After understanding this, the other party was very satisfied with Riddo's actions. This was also why he sent Riddo to the spaceship to be in charge of the ceremonial reception.
On the other side, Silin successfully landed his spaceship at the designated location under Riddo's guidance and the guidance of a navigator Riddo had sent out. This landing spot was very close to the main venue of the wedding.
The surroundings were decorated with romantic colors and the atmosphere was very lively amidst the music.
After refusing further guidance from the navigator, Silin took out his communicator and contacted Gen Xingming.
"Silin, you're here?!" On the screen, Gen Xingming was holding a glass of wine and doing something. He must've found a place to pick up the call after seeing Silin's call.
Silin pointed at his face. "It looks like you guys are having a good time here."
There was also a fresh lip mark on Gen Xingming's face. He didn't know which family's lady had applied it there.
Gen Xingming chuckled and wiped away the lip mark on his face. "Sigh, it's still the same old. Nothing new."
Although he said that, he knew that these people were having a good time when he saw Gen Xingming's sneaky smile.
"Where are you? We're at …" Gen Xingming reported a location and sent the icon to Silin. Gen Xingming couldn't locate Silin's communicator. It wasn't that easy to locate a guide's communicator.
"I just arrived. You guys go ahead and enjoy yourselves. I'll head over after a while," Silin said.
Gen Xingming was currently surrounded by a bunch of noble young masters and ladies. Although Gen Xingming had found a gap to pick up the call, someone was already calling him to hurry up. "Then hurry up.
Gaga, Bel and the others are all here. It's fun when there are more people. Relationships are built by playing. Didn't second grandpa tell you to get to know more people? Come over, I'll introduce you to some good guys. Of course, I won't be stingy with pretty girls, hehe … "
"Alright, go ahead and enjoy yourselves. I'll head over to you guys in a bit."
"Alright, hurry up. No pretty girls if you're late!"
Someone was urging Gen Xingming again. Gen Xingming didn't waste any more time talking to Silin. He ended the call after a few vulgar scolding words and went back to having fun.
Silin took a look at his surroundings after ending the call. This planet was a great natural attraction. It was obvious that the Rolle Family had invested a lot of resources to preserve the planet's natural appearance and improve it.
There were flying cars flying across the sky from time to time. Many noble children would bring their flying cars along with their spaceplanes or starships, but Silin didn't. Instead, Silin took out a hoverboard that he had made himself. He preferred the ease and convenience of a hoverboard over a flying car.
Without wearing a windshield, Silin took to the sky on the hoverboard with Huimao clinging tightly to Silin's shoulder. The wind blowing at them messed up Huimao's fur, but it was a very exciting feeling that Huimao liked. After the incident on Mercury Eagle's back, Huimao had dreamed of growing wings a couple of times. Therefore, he liked the feeling of flying more and more. He couldn't feel this kind of excitement from a flying car at all.
"Wait!" shouted Huimao as he slapped Silin with his paw.
"What's wrong?" asked Silin as he slowed down the hoverboard.
"… The taste of food …" said Huimao with a face full of reminiscence.
Because this place was relatively close to the main venue of the wedding, there were buffet tables set up in this area for guests to enjoy. Many people would go there to replenish their food after they got tired of playing around.
As expected, no matter how beautiful the dream of wings was, it couldn't resist the temptation of food.
Silin changed his original flight path and flew to the nearest buffet marked on the map he had obtained when he came here.
In fact, there was no need for this map. Huimao could tell the specific location just by saying it.
The nearest buffet was actually a little far from where Silin was. Huimao's nose was indeed very sensitive.
There were quite a lot of people at this buffet, but there were fewer young people. Most of the young people were gathered at a certain central area and were having a good time.
Seeing Silin coming down on a hoverboard, many people snorted. There were luxury cars parked all around, but only Silin came down on such a simple thing. It would be strange if he didn't attract attention.
Silin didn't care about other people's gazes. He came here to eat, not to struggle.
After putting away the hoverboard, he washed his hands and asked Huimao to wash its paws. Silin took it out. After washing its paws, Huimao jumped onto an empty small table with its two hind legs like a kangaroo. When it jumped, the meat on its round body bounced. After sitting down on the small table, Wheeze rattled off a bunch of things and waited for Cillin to bring the food over. After all, it wasn't very convenient for the cat to pick its own food from the table in front of a large crowd.
There was a service robot, but Huimao said it didn't believe in the service of such a retarded robot. It asked Silin to help get the food.
Silin took two plates and walked over, ignoring the curious gazes around him. One plate was filled with aquatic food, and the other plate was filled with a little more variety.
As Silin was choosing food, a voice came from behind. "Excuse me, are you brother Silin?"
Silin turned around. Although the person had changed a little, Silin still recognized her.
"Kiva Lunani?"
The girl standing in front of him was the girl Silin had met when he went to Barren Bator Intermediate Education School to look for Chang Xiao San and Chang Xiao Si. Compared to his impression of her, the current Lunani was more like a pure aristocrat, be it in clothes or words. After all, there was still a difference between inside and outside the school. Plus, after not seeing her for a long time, the girl's eyebrows had opened up a little, giving her the air of a noble little princess. Most importantly, this noble lady didn't discriminate against commoners. Silin remembered that the girl was quite interested in Chang Xiao Si, but he didn't know how their relationship had developed.
Lunani was very happy to hear Cillin call out her name. There weren't many people she was familiar with here, and she wasn't familiar with any of them at all. Her family could only be considered a middle noble, and she didn't have much confidence compared to most of the nobles here. If it weren't for the close business relationship between her family and the Lohr family, her family wouldn't have been invited here, let alone to a place that was close to the core venue.
Lunani's father was talking to someone not far away. Because of their business relationship, Lunani's father knew a lot of people. Because of the trend of profit, other nobles didn't care if you were a middle-class noble or not. But other than Lunani's family, there were also some middle-class nobles here. After all, upper-class nobles didn't make up the majority.
Lunani came over and chatted with Cillin after she informed her father. She was happy to run into someone she knew, and she was glad to meet someone she knew. However, Lunani's father wasn't happy to see Silin. After all, many people had seen Silin come down on those "crude" hoverboards. His first impression was directly put on the list of people he didn't know. But since the conversation was going on, Lunani's father didn't stop her from talking to Silin.
Lunani followed Silin to the small table after choosing her food. Huimao raised his paw to greet Lunani absentmindedly, then focused on the food on his plate.
Cillin asked a few questions about Chang Four and the others. From Lunani's words, he learned that both Chang Three and Chang Four had entered one of the top ranked advanced education schools in the star region. Not only that, they were treated pretty well, and they could be considered as celebrities in the school.
Silin trusted Chang Three and Chang Four's abilities, but Silin didn't believe that Bel wasn't behind all this. The more Silin interacted with this circle, the more he understood the trickery. If it weren't for Bel, Chang Three and Chang Four wouldn't have received such preferential treatment in such a short time, no matter how capable they were.
Lunani's eyes sparkled with pride and shyness at the mention of Chang Three and Chang Four.
Besides Chang San and Chang Si, Lunani also mentioned Chang Xiaowu. After the treatment, Chang Xiaowu quickly showed his talent, and he was currently studying at a school that was even more advanced than Barren Bator Intermediate Education Academy. That being said, Cillin also deduced one thing from Lunani's words: the Sizer Family was behind Chang Xiaowu.
Bel might have pushed for Chang Five, but the Sizer Family was the one who helped him from the shadows more than anything. It would seem that Fleka thought very highly of this boy who wasn't even ten years old yet. Moreover, Silin was absolutely certain that Chang Five wouldn't disappoint Fleka.
Chang Xiaowu's talent was there for all to see, and he was Wheeze's favorite disciple. Ahem, he could be considered half a favorite disciple if not a whole one. Coupled with Chang Five's experiences in his early years, he knew how to seize opportunities better than anyone else.
Chang Xiao San, Chang Xiao Si, and Chang Xiao Wu were doing well. The other children of the Chang family were also doing well. Lunani had visited them once. Old Man Chang was getting more and more energetic, and the triplets had grown a little taller. It would be strange if they weren't doing well with a big shop and the planetary government's secret help.
Silin was listening to Lunani talk about the Chang Family when Huimao suddenly made a "pfft" sound.
Huimao spat out half of the fish head he was eating just now, and it hit a large piece of cake on the table not far away from him. A child was about to reach for the cake with a fork, but when he saw the half-eaten fish head on the cake, his mouth turned into a pout and he was about to cry. But when he looked up, he saw that the cat in front of him was smiling instead of crying. Pulling a nearby servant, the cat pointed at Huimao and said, "Look, there's a little leopard!"
"That's a cat, young master."
"It's a leopard!"
"… Yes, it's a leopard."
Huimao didn't care that people thought of him as a leopard. He jumped onto Silin's shoulder and whispered to Silin, "Look, it's that weird kid!"
Silin looked in the direction Huimao was pointing. There was a group of people, and in front of the group was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy.
It was an acquaintance Cillin had met once before.
When Silin left Old Man Chang's place and was on his way to the capital, he saw the boy in the luxury suite on the top floor of a hotel through Huimao's surveillance camera.
At that time, the boy and the people he brought with him didn't have any emblems on their clothes, so he couldn't tell which nobility they were from. But today, they had family emblems on their clothes.
They were from the Gleason Family.
"Look, it's Young Master Dodge from the Gleason Family!"
"I didn't expect this young master to show up!"
"I heard that Young Master Gleason has a lot of power in the family …"
"Really?!"
Blah blah blah …
Some people were already thinking of ways to curry favor and establish a relationship with him.
So this is Gleason Dodge.
Naimi once said that every upper class noble in the empire knew that there were two brats in the empire other than the monarch and the three kings. One of them was Yurong Teita, and the other was Gleason Dodge. Anyone who dared to touch them would be met with great misfortune. It was a lesson learned from the mistakes of the past.
Cillin was familiar with Teita, but he didn't think that the other brat Naimi was talking about would be this young man.
If Teita received special treatment from Old Man Yurong due to his age and special background, and caused the other upper class nobles to treat him differently, then why was this boy different?
Both Huimao and Silin had a deep impression of this boy. The boy's keen intuition was able to detect Huimao's surveillance. Up until now, there were very few people who could detect Huimao's surveillance, and Gleason Dodge was just a fourteen or fifteen year old child.
Even in the face of an assassination attempt, he was able to act as if he didn't hear anything. Such a person was indeed frightening, but it was hard to explain why people would put him in the same position as Teita, "a brat that no one dared to mess with".
Gleason Dodge and a group of people walked over from the distance. Their presence was so strong that everyone who wanted to go over and greet them was forced to stop in their tracks.
A mere fourteen or fifteen year old had such an aura. No wonder he had a say in the Gleason Family. Having a say in the family meant that he could influence the Gleason Family's attitude on many things and even important decisions.
Gleason Dodge, it was hard not to be impressed.
Because of the arrival of this group of people, the chatter in the surroundings quieted down, and it became a lot quieter. A few children who were using their spoons to knock on their plates were also stopped by their parents.
Everyone knew that the legendary two brats were not to be trifled with, so they didn't dare to provoke this young master with such a strong presence in front of them.
This group of people didn't pay attention to the others, and went straight to the table with a "don't disturb me" attitude. The people who were choosing their food at the table also hurriedly left, they didn't dare to block this young master's path.
Gleason Dodge, who was leading a group of people to eat something and then leave, suddenly looked towards Cillin's direction as if he sensed something.
Huimao was whispering bad things about Dodge to Silin. Seeing Dodge suddenly look over, Huimao didn't show any weakness, and directly looked over with his round eyes.
Dodge frowned slightly. He felt something familiar, but obviously hadn't seen this pair before. If he had seen this cat before, he would never forget it.
What was this sense of familiarity?
Seeing his young master's expression, a guard next to him came up and asked in a low voice. Dodge shook his head and continued to eat the food that the guard in front of him had prepared for him.
"So sensitive!" Huimao snorted.
"How many times have I told you, that's called sensitive!"
"Same meaning." Huimao squatted on Silin's shoulder and wagged his tail, then said, "There are four invisible people around."
Of course, Silin also noticed, so he was even more curious about why Gleason Dodge would be treated like this, as if he was always guarding against assassinations...
Huh? Assassinations?
When she first saw Gleason Dodge, this guy seemed to have been assassinated.
Not simple at all.
Lunani was just curious about the famous Gleason Dodge that people were talking about. This young man, who was only a few years older than her, had an aura that was far beyond his age. Even her father didn't give her such a feeling. Lunani, like everyone else, looked at Gleason Dodge curiously. She didn't notice the conversation between Huimao and Silin. Of course, even if she had noticed, she wouldn't have heard the conversation between Huimao and Silin.
Dodge and the group of people he brought ate very quickly, which was in line with the dining etiquette of the nobles. It was because of this that the people around them had a higher opinion of this young man.
After the meal, Dodge left with his people. He didn't talk to the people around him, but when he left, Dodge glanced at Silin and Huimao again.
"Celine, what do you think that brat's final glance meant? Did he already know that we were the ones watching him? "Huimao said uncertainly.
This young man was too strange! He knew it the first time he met him.
