Demacia in American comics

Polly was a silver player before, but in the end he was so stubborn that he wouldn't play double queue with anyone.

So now when he is asked to find a partner, his first reaction is to be a little repulsive, because two people can't just care about themselves. As a small team, although two people can complete tasks that one person cannot complete, they also require you to consider more. , you not only have to consider yourself, but also consider your teammates more. This is the most basic motivation for a small team to develop for a long time.

So he thought about it and still did it according to Clinton's idea, because to some extent, he thought Clinton was right.

After Polly found Charles' home address, he hesitated.

To be precise, he was hesitant to knock on the door, because the address was too different from what he imagined, because this address was the address of a private manor. To put it simply, it was a mansion located in a forest and grassland.

And from the iron gate at the door, it can be seen that the identity of the owner here is unusual. Polly once thought that he was looking in the wrong place, but he looked again and again and confirmed that he was not dazzled.

So he immediately hesitated whether to choose another person. Maybe the thick eyebrows and big eyes wouldn't be any worse. Maybe he could keep the secret as he expected.

Because he knew that people who could live in a place like this, who had neither money nor errands to work in, mostly came to work at the police station just to get an identity, and just for recreation and entertainment.

The purpose is of course not to catch any criminals. The lives of rich people are precious and cannot be involved in danger.

But he pressed the doorbell in the end. Firstly, it was for final confirmation. He had to die to find out. Secondly, he had already come. It would not be illegal to chat. To put it bluntly, you can't be a partner. You can still be a colleague. You can always help me clarify my doubts or recommend suitable candidates for me.

"Hello, this is Mr. Charles' butler. Do you need help with anything?"

A very magnetic middle-aged voice came from the speaker next to the doorbell. The way he asked questions and the voice sounded very comfortable. From the first sound, he knew that he was a very qualified butler.

"Hello, this is Charles's colleague, Polly, Polly Davis. I have something to talk to him about. It's about work."

As he spoke, he looked for a camera. Needless to say, how could a mansion of this level not have a camera? Otherwise, it would be difficult to see who was coming, and the housekeeper would not let him in easily.

"Mr. Polly, please wait a moment. Mr. Charles is in the study. I will report to him."

There is no way, a rich person has a lot of things to do at home, so he can only wait patiently at the door for the result.

Not long after, the iron door with delicate patterns on the side slowly opened, and a voice came from the speaker next to the doorbell:

"Mr. Polly, Mr. Charles invites you to come in. He will wait for you in the drawing room."

Polly still had a very polite smile on the surface, but he started to complain in his heart. This simple meeting was just like a meeting between dignitaries from the two countries. It was done with such a serious look. The life of the rich is really It's pretentious.

But complaints are complaints. Rich people don't pay attention to these things. How can they show the difference between them and ordinary people, so they just think they are traveling.

After walking a few steps inside, I saw a tourist bus listening. The man next to me dressed as a driver nodded slightly to me and motioned for me to get on the bus.

It looks like this should be a dedicated vehicle for entry and exit.

After getting on the bus, I heard the driver in front of me say politely:

"Sir, you can close your eyes for a moment and rest your mind. We still have about 1015 minutes to reach the manor."

Polly rolled his eyes. He had only seen the idea of ​​driving half an hour to the kitchen in novels. He didn't expect to be lucky enough to experience it today.

He simply closed his eyes and rested his mind.

When the driver woke him up again, he saw a gorgeous and elegant manor, very European medieval style, it looked like he had stepped into the era of Don Quixote.

Next to the car, a middle-aged housekeeper was already standing. It seemed that he should be the person he just talked to.

But what surprised him was that the butler just led him to the door and did not mean to lead him into the living room. Instead, he let him go in by himself. This move gave Polly a message. Perhaps this Charles was very personal, and even the butler Zinati was not allowed to enter a room like the drawing room unless he was called.

But when he entered the living room, the scene he saw was even more surprising.

The exhibits and furnishings in the living room exceeded his imagination, including gorgeous murals, elegantly placed vases, exaggerated-looking lamps, and carpets that were as soft as hair under your feet.

Polly, who had always thought that his knowledge was quite broad, was slapped loudly in the face by reality.

He felt a little short of words now.

However, when entering the room, all the attention was attracted by one person, that is, a young man sitting on the main sofa. He was wearing a nightgown, sitting there casually with disheveled hair, holding a cigarette in his hand, and did not pay any attention to the ashes falling. Sitting on the soft floor, his elegant temperament seemed to form a picture with the decoration in the entire room.

Fortunately, Polly didn't look at him for long. He immediately noticed some problems with this man. His skin was pale, his lips were colorless, and his eyes were heavily dark circles.

This is probably a colorful company where people play and sing every night, and their bodies have long been drained by drinking and sex.

Polly guessed quite reasonably that he already regretted coming here. He was rich, but he was not suitable to be a partner because the person opposite looked like an embroidered pillow and was really not suitable to be a partner. He Now I just want to ask about other things and find an excuse to leave.

"Polly Davis"

When I heard this man speak, his voice was human-like and neutral, but unexpectedly pleasant. Although he looked decadent, he still couldn't stop his voice from sounding pleasant.

There is a strange neutral beauty. After all, Polly still lacks the vocabulary to describe men. Most of the adjectives in his mind are reserved for women.

"I am, are you Mr. Charles?"

"Ah."

Charles hummed a sound from his nasal cavity, and then he said:

"Mr. Polly, the wine is in the wine cabinet on the left, and the tea is in the tea cabinet on the right. You can help yourself."

Charles pointed casually and continued to smoke, his eyes so melancholy that he didn't know what he was thinking.

Polly hesitated for a moment, saying this since he was only a nut in TV series, but in order not to make a fool of himself, he chose wine. After all, there are many ways to make tea, and there are all kinds of exquisite things. If you don't do it well, you will become a layman, and wine It's as simple as opening the lid and pouring it, and you don't have to worry about so many details.

He casually picked up a bottle of wine, opened it casually without looking at the name or year, and poured half a cup into the glass. After all, this was a reception for guests, not a cocktail party, and it was best to have a drink to enjoy yourself.

But Charles glanced at it and said:

"You are very similar to a friend of mine. He also opened this bottle of wine when he came to my place for the first time. You all have good taste. This bottle of wine is at least in the top five in my wine collection. "

Polly didn't say anything. He took a sip of this wine, which was known as the top 5 wine. When he drank it, it didn't seem to be much different from the wine he usually drank. However, after thinking about it, he found that as the wine stayed in his mouth, it would continue to taste better. The new flavor can give your taste buds a very fresh experience, which is probably why it ranks in the top 5.

He licked his lips and nodded:

"Very interesting. It seems I'm lucky."
