Flowers, Swords and France

"Bang!"

With the sound of the gunshot, the horses parked on the edge of the race rushed forward like arrows, riding the wind towards the distant finish line.

The intensive sound of horse hooves rose and fell, beating on the ground like a drum, and for a moment it seemed that the whole earth was shaking.

Next to the runway, there was a tsunami of cheers. The stands were filled with spectators who placed bets on horse racing or simply came to watch. They were attracted by these galloping horses, their passion had been mobilized, and they devoted themselves wholeheartedly to this enduring event. Either cheering for a certain horse race, then making that hoarse scream that makes the noise go straight into the sky.

When the entire racecourse was immersed in thunderous cheers, the people in the boxes were also affected and watched nervously as the horses galloped.

As for Charles, he was staying in one of the boxes at this time.

He leaned on the railing of the box and stared at the horse racing gates on the track, as if they were really there? Ten thousand? Book? Bar? .nsb. It seems to be paying attention to the outcome of this round of competition.

In fact, he did not focus on horse racing, but took this rare opportunity to relax his body and mind. After all, there were too many things going on recently, which made him feel exhausted both physically and mentally. After a moment, he smiled to himself again - if he really lived that kind of life. I'm afraid he will feel bored again...

"Char, since you're here to play, have fun, don't be so deserted!" Just as he was still immersed in aimless thinking. He suddenly felt someone tapping him on the shoulder, "It's rare to come out and relax, why? Are you so serious now?"

Charles looked back and found his friend Albert holding a wine glass in one hand and looking at him with a smile.

It was precisely because of the agreement that "everyone comes out to have fun" a while ago that they came to the racecourse in Nagano to have fun together.

"Yes, sir. Why don't you come out to play after a long time? Why don't you relax completely!" Behind Albert, a gorgeous woman sitting on the sofa, dressed up and dressed up, said to Charles with a smile. "The weather has been so nice lately, don't you want to go out for a walk?"

As she spoke, she naturally trembled slightly, making her already very exposed breasts more attractive to the eye. The pink lace is paired with a large area of ​​white and greasy skin. It really exudes a new gravity that is hard to suppress. "Oh, of course, miss." Charles also picked up the wine glass from the side, then raised it slightly and gestured, "We always have to be accompanied by a lady to feel happy."

Then. The three of them picked up the wine glasses and took a sip together while laughing.

"How's it going? This one I brought today?" After taking a sip of wine, Albert also walked to the railing and stood next to Charles, enjoying the wind and watching the horse racing together. "Is it okay?"

"It's indeed not bad." Ciel nodded honestly.

"How about it? I have good taste, right? I've spent a lot of money on her recently!" After getting Charles' approval, Albert looked very happy, "It's a rare trip, why don't you also take me with you One comes out?"

"Isn't there no one here?" Charles shrugged.

"Then..." Albert winked at Charles, "How about you use this later? Consider it my invitation."...

"Uh..." Charles waved his hand quickly, "Sorry, no need, I haven't been thinking much lately."

Even if he wanted to, he wouldn't want to share one with his friends.

"I said Charles, why have you become so boring recently? You don't look like a young man at all. Aren't young people supposed to be more chic?" Albert was obviously a little dissatisfied with Charles's attitude. "Come here from today. You just stood there silently, how could you look like you were out to play? "

"Aren't I just here to have fun?"

"Then let's have some fun. It's rare for me to treat you today." Albert looked at Charles with a somewhat sad look in his eyes, obviously feeling very sad that his friend had "reduced" to such a state. "What? Are you ready to give up just because you're engaged? Are you really ready to stay with Charlotte for the rest of your life? You won't touch anyone except her? That's too pitiful, isn't it? As a good young man , how can I be controlled like this? Hey, hey, so I don’t want to get married at all..."

"Yes, sir, you don't have to be afraid." His female companion also smiled and agreed, "Who will tell anyone about this matter? You can relax yourself. If you want, I can give it to you Introduce a friend, and she happens to be here today..."

Then, the seductively dressed girl walked up to Charles with a charming smile, "Of course, if you want to come to me, I will also..."

Hearing that the topic suddenly shifted to a strange and dangerous aspect, Ciel quickly stopped them with words out of embarrassment.

"Wait, stop making trouble, I have other important things to do when I come here today!"

His answer caused the man and woman to laugh again.

"Isn't having fun the most important thing in this era, sir?" the girl with a trembling smile replied.

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"

At this moment, the door of the box was suddenly knocked gently.

"Is it Mary? Come in quickly!" Charles, who finally got the chance to clear the siege, shouted quickly.

After getting his permission, the door was opened immediately.

Then Mademoiselle Marie-de-Léoland came quietly from the door.

She was wearing a gray dress today, and her hair was neatly tied back on her head. This conservative dress seemed quite incompatible with this passionate place. At the same time, there was no makeup on her face, and she looked very serious, as if she was attending a formal occasion. But even so, this dress still can't conceal the vibrant youthful vitality.

She walked in without looking away, as if she didn't see the other man and woman.

"The Marquis de Trivaux is already waiting for you in his box, sir." She reported in a low voice when she walked to Charles. "I can take you there now. He said that I can stay with you there." Have lunch.”

"Very good." Charles immediately praised, "Good job, Mary, thank you. Please wait outside the door first, I will come out soon."

"Yes, sir." Mary nodded seriously, then turned and left the box, closing the door gently.

At this time, Albert and his female companion were still stunned, as if they had not yet reacted.

"Albert, this is Marie, my sister's companion." Charles quickly explained to him, "I asked her to make an appointment for me with the Marquis de Trivaux."

"De-Trevo?" Albert seemed to finally react.

"Yes, that's him. Mr. de Treveau, the director in charge of weapons procurement in the Ministry of War, is his family, so I made an appointment with him today..." Charles explained in a low voice. Get up, "Let's go there together later, tell him about the new rifle, and find out what the gentleman wants..."...

He did not expect that Albert suddenly had a rather strange reaction.

"I really didn't expect it, Charles, this happened silently..." Albert looked at Charles in admiration, as if he had discovered something, "Hey, let me tell you, how could our Charles do it so easily?" Surrender to fate!"

"What?" Charles was confused for a while, and then he realized what he was saying.

"Hey, where did you think you were?"

"I didn't expect to go anywhere. She is really good-looking, quite beautiful." After Mary left, Albert suddenly winked at Charles, "Friend, you have found a good helper... "

Then, as if he was afraid that the girl next to him would be unhappy, he put his arms around her waist again, "Of course, honey, I still like you to be so interesting!"

The two of them burst into laughter again.

"Don't think too much! My friend!" Charles quickly explained, "She is just my assistant. I asked her to help a lot, but that's all."

"Don't lie to me, Charles, I'm a veteran. This girl is interested in you." Albert asserted directly.

"Nonsense!" Charles shook his head, "I'm not like you, thinking about having fun all day long, and there are so many things to do!"

"No, judging from the results, aren't we the same? I like the passionate ones, you like the reserved and sentimental ones..." Albert looked at Charles' awkward look and couldn't help but sneer, "We are different. Are you playing? Could it be that your way of playing is more advanced? Oh... No, maybe your way of playing is indeed more advanced than mine. There are so many women in the world, and it's hard to find someone who is sentimental... But I don't like this, too much. Trouble."

Seeing these two scum talking shamelessly here, the woman next to Albert was not annoyed at all, she just watched them laughing.

"Okay, okay, stop talking." Charles didn't know how to answer his good friend, so he had to wave his hands to stop him. "Where did you go? We should talk about serious business!"

"Why are you so afraid? I won't go to Charlotte to complain..." Albert shook his head. "Okay, don't mention it if you don't want to. Let's go there together. I really didn't expect you to be such a serious person. You obviously said you were just out for fun, but you still have to arrange such official things. Isn't it a waste of time?"

Then, the two friends walked out of the door and walked towards the Marquis de Trevaux's box with their respective female companions.
