Chapter 589 The invitation from the young marquis
After thinking about it, I still can't make up my mind.
Musk held the pen and prayed silently:
"Should I keep the appointment? My guardian angel, please give me guidance."
"Brother Musk, you have to go!"
"Guardian Angel" Gao Fei fell in love with Musk as soon as he received the system prompt.
"Tonight's party, if it doesn't have something pornographic about it, I wouldn't be happy with it!"
Having said that, Gao Fei actually knew it in his heart.
According to the usual standards of "Savior Simulator", it is impossible to really engage in pornography. Tonight's party is just a sideshow.
Gao Fei quickly wrote a reply to Master Potter and sent his servant to the Marquis' mansion.
At seven o'clock in the evening, a luxury carriage stopped at the door of the office.
The coachman knocked on the door and told Miss Lisa that he was Lord Potter's servant and had come specially to pick up Mr. Justice for the banquet.
"The invitation said that the banquet will only start at 9 o'clock. Why did the Marquis send a car to pick you up two hours in advance?"
Lisa felt a little strange.
"Perhaps Master Potter was worried that I didn't understand the social etiquette of upper class society, so he called me over in advance to give him some guidance so as not to embarrass him."
Gao Fei casually made up a reason.
As the "arbiter", Miss Lisa has many ways to detect lies, but she never expected that her sweetheart did not mean what he said. She believed what he said, and thoughtfully helped him put on his dress and told him to go home early.
Before getting into the car, Gao Fei looked back and saw Miss Lisa still watching him at the door, her eyes full of tenderness. He couldn't help but feel ashamed secretly, feeling that the plot route he chose was somewhat unfair to his confidante.
So I secretly made up my mind to go to the banquet just to discuss business.
Even if you act casually, there is a limit. You can eat and drink, but you must not participate in activities such as "general health care".
"Hey! Brother Musk, is that girl at the door your fiancée? She is so charming!"
A frivolous laughter suddenly came from his ears, startling Gao Fei.
Turning around, he saw Paul Porter sitting in the carriage, wearing white trousers and a long cloak with a hood, dressed like a monk.
"Master Potter, why are you in the car too?"
"If I'm not in the car, who will take you to the party?"
Paul Porter asked with a smile.
Gao Fei was stunned for a moment and asked tentatively: "The party tonight is not at your house?"
"I would like to have such an exciting banquet at home, but unfortunately I can't. If my dad finds out, he will definitely hurt my legs." Potter said angrily.
"So where are we going?"
"Leave the city first, and then go to Wycombe Abbey."
"Would it be considered sacrilegious to hold a dinner party in such a solemn place as a monastery?"
"Haha! My dear brother Justice, you have got the point right. It is precisely because it is blasphemous that it is particularly exciting!" Potter smiled obscenely.
Gao Fei was dumbfounded.
He had guessed a long time ago that these noble gentlemen would definitely do no good if they got together.
However, he still underestimated the wantonness and absurdity of these dandy boys. They were no longer satisfied with physical debauchery, but actually messed around in the monastery, gaining spiritual stimulation by breaking through moral and religious taboos.
Of course, this absurd behavior can also be packaged into progressive ideas, such as "liberating human nature" and "Don Juan spirit."
After calming down for a while, Gao Fei looked Paul Porter up and down.
"No wonder you dressed like a monk. It turned out you were trying to sneak into the monastery... Do I want to dress like this too?"
"It's not necessary at the moment, my friend." Paul explained with a smile, "I'm wearing the uniform of the Hellfire Club. It's your first time to attend the party tonight. You're not yet a formal member of our club, so you don't need to dress up. Become a monk."
"Hellfire Club..." Gao Fei frowned, "This doesn't sound like a serious club, but more like a cult that worships the devil."
"Haha! Brother Justice, you are indeed very perceptive, and you caught the key point right away! In fact, our club is to imitate devils and demons in the world, completely liberate one's desires, and break through the boundaries of morality and religion. Be restrained, don’t care about anyone’s opinions, say what you want, and do what you want freely!”
After listening to Paul Porter's introduction, Gao Fei gradually understood that the so-called "Hellfire Club" was a group of dissolute young men from the upper class who gathered together to create an underground salon.
The activities of this club mainly include three categories: eating and drinking, engaging in pornography, and... engaging in sexual politics.
The core values of this club are to talk about all kinds of strange political opinions from the extreme left to the extreme right without any scruples, to export violent opinions to the best of their ability, and to ridicule the orthodox church.
After the carriage left the city, it drove for more than an hour and stopped in front of a quaint monastery far away from the city.
Outside the monastery gate, two rows of carriages were parked, like the parking lot of a luxury hotel.
Goofy followed Paul Porter out of the car and walked into the monastery.
He met many men and women wearing monk uniforms on the road, and he couldn't tell whether these people were real clergymen or cosplay enthusiasts like Potter.
It wasn't until he followed the flow of people into the first floor of the monastery and saw that the originally sacred and solemn church was decorated in the style of a strip club that Gao Fei was convinced that these sanctimonious guys were all hooligans!
Club members call each other brothers and sisters, and the president is called "abbot".
All club members who come to the party dress up as clergy, men call themselves "monks", and women call themselves "nuns" - most of them are socialites, or lonely ladies who cheat on their husbands.
Members of the Hellfire Club disguise themselves as monks who live in seclusion and hold lewd parties in the monastery.
This strong sense of disobedience makes Gao Fei think of the "street angels" who maintain the lawless order of Patus Street.
Members of street gangs call themselves "angels", and the nickname of their leader Umberto is "Archangel", while the "Hellfire Club" formed by a group of dissolute nobles calls themselves "devils".
The comparison between the two is even more ironic.
Gao Fei noticed that there were several people in formal attire in the venue, mixed in with a group of "monks" and "nuns", and they seemed out of place.
After asking Paul, I learned that these people who attended the banquet in formal attire, like me, have not yet obtained formal membership of the club.
Before the application for membership is approved, you can only attend the party as an "observer".
Observers can attend the club dinner, and if interested, they can also stay and watch the fake (messy) face (×) dance held after the meal, but they cannot personally operate it...
