“what？”
"Did you really do this?"
"No wonder you want to apply for reconsideration. Here's the reason!"
Guteran nodded, and the people around him immediately exploded. A few people who were standing with Guteran immediately stepped aside. Many people were shaking their heads, and some had hatred and anger on their faces.
Although it was a game for nobles, everyone had agreed from the beginning that no one was allowed to cheat. They had to rely on their own abilities. Otherwise, if he cheated today, he might be the victim tomorrow.
They liked to play and like this game, but they also had their own rules. Those who did not follow the rules would also be punished and eliminated.
Guteran was completely stunned. He did not know why he nodded just now. He hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, it's not like that. I didn't. I didn't do it."
"Let me ask you, did John Jr. give you the cigarette in your pocket? Don't be in a hurry to deny it. Look at the top of your head. What's that?"
Gu Zheng stepped forward and asked again. Guteran subconsciously raised his head and immediately saw a monitor.
The monitor made his eyes tighten slightly, and John Junior had a bad feeling. He had given the item to Gudrun behind the monitor, but Gudrun himself was not aware of this. Once he admitted it, not only would Gudrun be finished, but he would also be finished.
"Guteran!"
John Jr. suddenly shouted. Just as he was about to walk over, Sir Brown was already standing in front of him, blocking his way. Sir Brown's face was still extremely gloomy.
He and John Jr. were sworn enemies. He could accept that John Jr. had instigated Guteran to challenge him first, but he could not accept that the other party had used despicable means.
At this time, how could he let John Jr. go over?
"Yes, John Jr. gave it to me!"
Guteran sighed, took out the cigarette launcher, and put it aside. A few young nobles ran over and looked at the cigarette launcher carefully, clicking their tongues in amazement.
Guteran did not know that John Jr. was behind the monitor. In his opinion, with the monitor, everything he had done before would be exposed as long as he pulled it out. It would be even more embarrassing if he admitted it. He might as well admit it now. There was no way to avoid it.
John Jr. was secretly cursing Guteran for being an idiot. As long as he refused to admit it, the people here could not do anything to him.
After all, their identities were not ordinary. Gutelang himself was not a noble, but his father was a newly promoted knight who was on good terms with the queen.
With such a background, the people here would definitely care about their reputation. Unfortunately, it was too late now. He admitted it himself. Even if the Queen was here, she could not protect him. However, there was no need for her to protect him. Even if he was found to have cheated, he would not be punished. He would only be expelled from this circle and his reputation would be ruined.
Just like a gambler who was caught cheating, it would be very difficult for him to stay in this circle in the future.
"Little John, do you have anything else to say?"
Sir Brown turned his head abruptly and looked at Little John angrily. Gutron had made a dirty move, but it was not done by him, but by Little John. This made Sir Brown even more unacceptable.
It would be strange if he could accept the fact that he had tricked him to such an extent.
Fortunately, Gu Zheng discovered all of this and stopped him. Otherwise, his scheme would have succeeded. If that happened, not only would he lose a casino, but he would also lose face.
"What do I have to say? Gutron cheated himself and then wanted to drag me down with him. That's it!"
Little John shrugged his shoulders and smiled. Gutron admitted it, but it did not mean that he would admit it.
As long as he did not admit it, these people could not do anything to him.
"There is more than one cigarette. The whole box of cigarettes is on him!"
Gu Zheng suddenly said. Sir Brown looked at Little John again. Little John's eyelids twitched slightly and he shook his head again. "I don't understand what you mean, Mr. Gu Zheng. Also, you just said that you can see through the surveillance that I gave the so-called cigarette launcher to Gutron. Then check the surveillance. If not, please clear my name, Mr. Gu Zheng!"
Little John was very cautious. He knew that the surveillance could not capture him, so he deliberately said that.
If the surveillance was really checked, Gu Zheng and the others would be the ones who would be passive.
"Where is the fragrance? Where is the fragrance?"
A little girl sniffed and quickly walked in. Many people turned their heads and were surprised to see her.
"Princess Tana, why are you here?"
A young noble hurriedly ran over. The little girl who ran over was the girl who had smelled the fragrance all the way. Her nose was very sharp, and she really found the source of the fragrance.
The little girl's identity was not ordinary. She was the youngest princess of the Netherlands. Although the Dutch royal family, like other royal families, was symbolic, she was a real princess after all. Her bloodline was naturally noble.
Most of the people here were nobles, so they all knew her.
"It's here!"
The little girl ignored the young noble and walked to the kitchen counter where Gu Zheng had just cooked. After seeing the pot, she was stunned again. Then she curled her lips and looked like she was about to cry.
"It's gone. It's gone. You all ate it!"
She found the source of the fragrance. She found it very accurately. It was here. Unfortunately, she was late. There was nothing left in the pot.
"Princess Tana, there is something else here. I hope you can wait!"
The young noble who followed her said softly. Princess Tana raised her head reluctantly and asked with a pout, "What's the matter?"
The young noble went back and briefly explained what had just happened. Princess Tana's expression changed again.
"What's the point of checking the surveillance? It's simple. Just search him!"
Princess Tana stretched out her finger and pointed at Little John. Little John's face became very ugly in an instant, but soon returned to normal.
The cigarette launcher was indeed on him. He would be finished if they searched him. But no one here dared to search him. There was no evidence. They couldn't do so. The surveillance evidence had been prevented in advance.
After all, they were all nobles. Face was very important.
Sir Brown was also in a dilemma. He was sure that Little John did it. He could do it, but he really couldn't search him, even if he really found evidence.
Searching a noble by force would make everyone else feel disgusted.
"If you don't search him, I will!"
Princess Tana suddenly shouted and rushed directly to Little John. Little John was a little stunned. Before he could react, Princess Tana had approached his body and grabbed his arm.
Princess Tana's speed was very fast. Her hand had fallen on Little John. Little John just wanted to resist. She had taken a cigarette box from Little John's body and retreated.
All this happened very quickly. Not to mention Little John, even others didn't see it clearly. Princess Tana had taken the cigarette box from Little John's body.
"Is this it?"
Princess Tana held the cigarette box and asked softly. Little John's face became even more ugly. He shouted, "Give it back to me. Quick, damn it!"
"Who are you talking about?"
Little John had run over. Princess Tana pulled a long face. Not only did she not give it back to him, but she ran around the hall with him. Although Princess Tana was only 1.5 meters tall, she was not slow when she ran. Little John couldn't catch up with her.
Gu Zheng looked at them with interest.
This Princess Tana was a bit interesting.
Princess Tana had no internal strength, let alone immortal power. Gu Zheng was sure of this, but her skills were extraordinary. Ordinary people didn't have such skills.
Her body was very flexible. It could be seen that she had definitely practiced. It was impossible for Little John to catch up with such a Princess Tana.
"Princess Tana, Mr. Gu Zheng is a master I invited. His cooking skills are very good. The food you just looked for was made by him. Can you give me the cigarette box in your hand?"
Sir Brown hurriedly cried. He was worried that Princess Tana would take the cigarette box and run out with Little John. If she came back, Little John would not admit it.
After all, they had gone out and left everyone's sight. He could say that the cigarette box in Princess Tana's hand was not his. They framed him together. As long as he didn't admit it, they couldn't do anything.
But it was different here. They were all under everyone's eyes. It was impossible to deny it.
"Good!"
Princess Tana agreed very readily. After an 'OK', the cigarette box flew out of her hand and fell steadily into Sir Brown's outstretched hand.
With her accuracy, if she joined the basketball team, she would definitely be the main shooter. She would make a three-point shot.
"Sure enough!"
Sir Brown opened the box and took out the same cigarette launcher as the one in Guterang's hand. And there was more than one. There were five of them. In other words, he brought six of them.
Many people gathered around Sir Brown. After seeing it clearly, they all looked at Little John. Little John was no longer chasing Princess Tana. He was bending over and gasping for breath.
"Little John, what else do you have to say?"
Sir Brown raised the cigarette box and shouted angrily. This time, he was really caught red-handed.
Sir Brown was still hesitating before, but he didn't expect Princess Tana to suddenly appear and help him. He couldn't search him, but Princess Tana could. Although Princess Tana was also a noble, she was not in the same circle as them and didn't care about them.
However, there were a few people among them who were Princess Tana's pursuers. The young man who had just walked past was one of them.
Princess Tana had no scruples and helped them get the evidence. Now everything was clear. Little John was up to no good. He brought a small aircraft that could contaminate food and a cigarette launcher. He felt that Guterang might not win against Sir Brown, so he secretly gave it to Guterang.
Guterang did use it, but it was discovered by Gu Zheng and then exposed.
Guterang admitted everything, but Little John denied it. Now that the truth was out, Little John couldn't deny it even if he wanted to. Everyone glared at him. Little John's behavior could be said to be more abominable than Guterang.
"It's indeed mine. I admit it, but Guterang asked me to get it for him. He only took one, and the rest are his!"
Little John saw that he couldn't deny it and suddenly poured water on Guterang.
"You, you're talking nonsense. I didn't know about this thing beforehand. Don't believe him!"
Guterang was anxious. He didn't expect Little John to pour dirty water back. He was so angry that he shouted. He had already been harmed by Little John, and now Little John was framing him. The person he hated the most now was Little John.
"Little John, you're also an aristocrat. Is this interesting?"
A man in his forties came out, looked at Little John, and said in a low voice. Seeing him, Little John didn't speak. He lowered his head in silence.
"Earl Karl!"
Some people shouted. The person who came out was the person with the highest status and the highest rank among them. This was an earl, a real earl. It was not the kind that was conferred later. It was a hereditary earl.
An earl with such a history was a real aristocrat.
When Earl Karl came out, the matter was settled. Little John's face was bitter. He finally nodded gently and said, "Earl Karl, I was wrong!"
He couldn't deny it anymore. If he continued to deny it, he would be disrespecting Earl Karl. He could ignore many people at the scene, but he couldn't face Earl Karl. Earl Karl's influence was too great, even greater than his father's.
"You can go, Little John. Don't come back in the future!"
Earl Karl said faintly. His words were equivalent to banishing Little John from the circle. Although there was no punishment, this was more serious than punishment.
This meant that no one in the circle would have any interaction with Little John in the future, not only at this food festival but also in the future. Half of Little John's social circle was destroyed in an instant.
In terms of influence, eighty percent of Little John's social influence was gone. After all, the people he knew were many people who were not as good as him, many ordinary people.
"Gudrun, you lost!"
Earl Karl turned his head again and looked at Gudrun. Facing Earl Karl, Gudrun didn't have any objection. He nodded directly and admitted that he had lost.
"Take out the bet you lost. You don't have to participate in this event!"
Earl Karl said again. Gudrun was slightly stunned. He immediately nodded quickly and seemed a little happy.
Compared to Little John, his punishment was much lighter. He was only not allowed to participate in this event. This meant that he was not expelled from the circle. He could continue to stay in the circle in the future.
This was definitely an unexpected surprise for him.
The others had no objections to Earl Karl's punishment. The people who were there were not stupid. In fact, they were all very smart. They could see that Gudrun had been tricked and had become Little John's tool.
From the beginning, his challenge was that he was also a victim. In addition, after being exposed, he did not deny it. He generously admitted it and accused Little John, so everyone could accept his mistake.
"Brown, you won. We will remember your grievances!"
Earl Karl said to Brown again. His words were even more serious. It was equivalent to a promise. Brown's initial dissatisfaction immediately disappeared without a trace. For Earl Karl to say that to him, it was a surprise and even a pleasant surprise.
