"Interested in joining a secret organization?"
Looking at this sentence on the note, even though Lin Ruo already knew something about the Aurora Order members' style of doing things, and had just witnessed Mr. A's extremely awkward acting skills, he still felt a bit thrown off.
In this world of mysteries where everyone speaks in riddles and is a drama queen, Lin Ruo felt that the Aurora Order's style could truly be called a "clear stream."
Sending this note was practically telling him, "I know you have a problem, I know you have designs on the Aurora Order." What difference was there?
If you were going to send this note, why did you bother acting just now—although your acting wasn't very good!
Lin Ruo really didn't know how to evaluate Mr. A's behavior. At the same time, a question popped up in his mind again:
Is it that the True Creator's style of choosing people is based on the 'foolish beauty' standard, or are the Aurora Order members originally normal, and only became like this after listening to too much rap?
Lin Ruo recalled the Aurora Order members who appeared in the original novel and felt that the latter was more likely to be the truth.
After all, there were intelligent Aurora Order members in the original novel, such as Leonard Mitchell, and the traitor from the Abraham family. Regardless of their character, at least their IQ was within the normal range.
However, the True Creator definitely has a thing for attractive people...
Speechless as he was, since Lin Ruo had already prepared to "blend" into the Aurora Order and intended to adhere to the principle of "even if you recognize me, I will pretend not to know. As long as I'm not embarrassed, others will be," he naturally stepped onto the stage that Mr. A had personally provided. He immediately wrote the words "Interested" on the note, folded it, and handed it back to the waiter.
However, considering that Audrey Hall was among the onlookers at the moment, to prevent unnecessary misunderstandings and troubles, Lin Ruo had entered acting mode from the moment he received the note. There was surprise and helplessness, and he appropriately showed resistance and anger. It was as if he didn't want to get involved with Mr. A, but was forced to do so for some reason.
This scene naturally fell into the eyes of others. Due to the angle, no one except Lin Ruo saw the contents of the note. At this moment, due to the different information they possessed, their expressions varied.
Hmm, what exactly did Mr. A write? Rudy seems very surprised, and also a little helpless and angry, and shows obvious resistance. He obviously doesn't want to be involved with Mr. A...
Audrey thought, analyzing what was going on between these two people.
Fors and Xio couldn't possibly be as observant as Audrey. They only saw Mr. A handing Rudy a note, which obviously contained some bad content that made Rudy feel unhappy.
As one of the only three people present who knew that Rudy was a member of the Fool's secret organization, she was even more nervous at this moment. They were really afraid that something would happen at the gathering next. Their biggest wish at this moment was to be able to get through this gathering safely and not become poor little ones affected by the battles of the big shots.
Silently observing Klein retracting his gaze at this moment, he also didn't see what was written on the note, or even the little emotions that Lin Ruo deliberately performed. However, at this moment, he was even more certain that Lin Ruo and the Aurora Order had a story.
As for Viscount Glaint, as the only one among the few people who knew Lin Ruo who was completely unaware of his little friend, he didn't think so much. After seeing the waiter hand the note with the reply to Mr. A, although he was curious, he didn't ask much.
Lin Ruo glanced at Mr. A. After the latter took the note and glanced at it, he instructed the waiter. Lin Ruo guessed that with Mr. A's straightforward style, it wouldn't be long before someone was sent to call him into those small rooms specially for negotiating deals.
Lin Ruo was mentally prepared for this, but on the surface, he still showed a worried look, and appropriately showed some anxiety, occasionally looking at Mr. A or the direction of the door, as if he wanted to leave but was afraid.
However, Lin Ruo's grasp of the degree was very good, ensuring that his little emotions, except for professionals like Audrey or Klein, could not be seen by anyone, just like he was trying to restrain his emotions.
This way, he wouldn't make Miss Salted Fish and others think too much, and he wouldn't seem deliberate, making Audrey aware of the inappropriateness.
Under such circumstances, the gathering continued. The blackboard was quickly filled with words. Seeing that this gathering was about to enter the free exchange break, finally a waiter came to Lin Ruo again and handed him another note.
"This is from Mr. A for you."
This time, Lin Ruo didn't take it immediately, but looked at the note with a very dramatic expression and pursed his lips, as if hesitating, or resisting, but finally stretched out his hand, took the note, opened it, and saw that it asked him to go to a certain room on the second floor.
Lin Ruo clenched the note. This time, he didn't intend to reply either. After dismissing the waiter, he glanced at his companions next to him, took a slight breath, and whispered, "Glaint, Audrey, and Miss Fors and Miss Xio... I have some private matters to deal with. If... I mean, if I don't come back after the gathering, you don't have to wait for me, just go back!"
Audrey frowned, and said with some worry, "Is it really okay?"
Combining everything she had observed before, Audrey had some guesses in her heart.
Rudy and Mr. A were obviously not friends. The current situation was more like the two had indeed met in private, but their relationship was not good, and Mr. A might also have some handle in his hand, thus threatening Rudy...
As for why he wanted to threaten Rudy, there were many possibilities, especially considering that Rudy himself might be a member of a secret organization... Audrey was really worried about Rudy's safety.
After all, she still regarded Rudy as a little friend.
"What's wrong? What exactly happened?" Viscount Glaint, who had been out of the loop, also noticed something was wrong at this moment, and asked with concern.
Fors and Xio were quietly like quails next to them. They didn't think that Mr. A was threatening Rudy in the current situation, but guessed that Mr. A had angered Rudy, and now the boss was planning to clean up the other party.
"Don't worry, I'm fine... I'm just dealing with some private matters." Lin Ruo shook his head, saying obvious lies, completely with an attitude of not wanting to involve his friends in trouble.
"Okay, I'll go over first, you guys take your time!"
"Remember, if I don't come back, don't look for me, and don't worry about me, just go home."
