After Central College resumed classes, Dane's injuries were almost completely invisible. Except for Vivian and Theodore, no one in the college knew that Dane had ever had a conflict with Corey.

The students who had been idle for a holiday did not become busy because of the class, and the college still had a leisurely style. Theodore leaned lazily on the back of the chair in the classroom, and looked up at Dane who was sitting behind him. Complained: "The interstellar public holiday will be in two months, and there is really no motivation to study in these two months."

Interstellar public holidays are the holidays set at the beginning of the first year of Interstellar. In order to commemorate the full entry of mankind into the interstellar era, the two weeks of public holidays are almost all interstellar rest days, so there are almost no wars, and naturally the military will not be so busy.

Dane glanced at his friend and said, "Aren't you going to apply for the position of executive officer? Doesn't this motivate you to study?"

Theodore curled his lips after hearing this, and obediently sat down and read a book, but after only persisting for a few minutes, he returned to his previous appearance. Theodore turned his head to talk to Dane unwillingly, and asked, "What is your birthday? This Sunday, right?"

"Hmm." Dane looked up at his friend and asked, "What's the matter, is there any problem?"

"No, no, I'm just asking casually." Theodore quickly waved his hand, and then said with emotion: "That's great, the colonel has specially prepared a banquet for you, and I only have one cake, and I still use cake coupons to buy it." of that kind.”

Theodore's home is not on the main star of the empire star group. During the coming-of-age ceremony, he specially asked the academy for a two-day vacation. Dane was originally invited, but he didn't go with him because of something, so he didn't know about Theodore. How much was exaggerated in what he said at this moment, and he joked along with Theodore's words: "How about I ask people to leave all the cakes at the banquet for you?"

Theodore gave Dane a false look, and then talked about some things. Finally, seeing that Dane really didn't want to answer him, he had to sit upright and go back to read a book aggrieved.

A few days passed quickly, and it was Sunday almost in a blink of an eye. The banquet was held in the evening, and usually the guests would come one after another from the afternoon at the earliest.

Dane met Heinrich when he got up early and went downstairs. He waved his hand in front of him and asked, "Where's my gift?"

It was rare to see Dane acting like a baby, Heinrich smiled and straightened the collar of the person in front of him, and said: "After the dinner, I will send someone to your room."

One sentence aroused Dane's curiosity. In previous years, the gift would usually be placed in his room one day in advance. This year, Dane thought Heinrich had forgotten it, so he didn't pay much attention to it. Anyway, the gift was made by someone else. It was just a random question just now, but Heinrich actually prepared it.

Dane didn't struggle with the gift for long, because Vivienne arrived early, and Dane was a little puzzled when she saw her come in: "So early?"

"Well, I have something to tell you." Vivienne nodded, pulled the chair next to Dane and sat down, and signaled him to finish breakfast quickly.

Dane peeled an egg for himself slowly, pushed a bowl of fruit salad in front of Vivienne in a good mood, and said: "If you have something to say, just say it, no one will disturb us in the breakfast room at this time, unless There are others who come early like you."

Vivian raised her head and glanced around, making sure no one would come, waited for Dane to swallow the milk in her mouth, and said, "Someone is checking your identity."

"My identity?" Dane asked in surprise, "Who is checking?"

Vivienne did not answer Dane's question directly, but instead asked, "Why aren't you afraid?" Dane's emotions for a moment did contain shock and bewilderment, but there was no element of panic. Can't figure it out, she thought Dane would panic at least a little bit.

"Why should you be afraid? I am the adopted son of the Fitzgerald family, an illegitimate child on the bottom planet, and an orphan. These are established facts. If there is any need to investigate." Dane finished speaking, poured milk into the milk Another spoonful of honey was added, and the small metal spoon was stirred gently in the white liquid, causing ripples.

"But you're not Dane." Vivian pressed Dane's hand and said seriously: "Do you know who the person who is checking you is? It's Audrey Borghez. Once this woman catches anything against you , just like a shark will not let go easily." Although she didn't know what Dane's previous identity was, she still had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

Dane didn't look flustered at all, since Vivienne's tone was tinged with warning, Dane still took a sip of milk leisurely and said slowly: "Then let her check, if she has the ability to find out my In the past, I couldn't stop her."

"It's good that you are mentally prepared." Vivienne said. She only found out about the news this morning, and it is not comprehensive. She doesn't know how much Audrey knows about Dane. If Audrey To expose Dane's identity at tonight's banquet, the consequences might be ugly, but Dane's appearance really didn't show any panic, maybe there was really nothing to investigate.

After figuring this out, Vivienne put the matter behind her, and asked Dane another matter: "How, have you succeeded?"

"Huh?" Dane hummed because he didn't know.

Vivienne added: "Will the Colonel announce your heir tonight?"

"If there are no accidents." Dane smiled, put down the empty glass, and wiped his lower lip gracefully.

After Heinrich came down from upstairs after changing his clothes, he saw the scene where Dane and Vivienne said this intimately together, his eyes darkened involuntarily, he stood outside the breakfast room and looked at it for a few seconds before turning around went elsewhere.

After noon, guests came one after another. Although the protagonist today is Dane, it is obvious that the target of the conversation of the guests is Heinrich, and Dane is too lazy to argue with those people, so he followed Heinrich for a while. Circle, after familiarizing with the faces of the guests, they went to other places.

Theodore came not too early, and after finding Dane in the crowd, he rushed over, pulled Dane and complained: "Why did you invite Creek and the others, as well as Andrew and Corey, I saw it too. "

"I didn't invite them. They should be Heinrich's guests." Dane glanced at the crowd and accurately captured Heinrich's platinum-blond hair. The unique hair color is really eye-catching in the crowd. It's hard not to notice.

Theodore was puzzled: "How could the colonel have contact with them, they are obviously not from the same generation."

Dane shrugged and said: "Family contacts, the Garcia family and the Borghez family are not considered small families in the empire, and they naturally have contacts with the Fitzgerald family. Didn't you see Will Garcia and the Oss family?" Is Ben Borghez here?"

"Okay, okay, I just said it casually." Theodore waved his hand, seeing that Dane still had to receive guests, he left his friend and went to have fun by himself.

The dinner officially started at seven o'clock sharp. Dane obediently followed Heinrich, weaving through the crowd, listening to all kinds of perfunctory compliments with a smile on his face, when Zole came to congratulate , the smile on Dane's face was slightly retracted, and Heinrich's eyes calmly drew a circle between the two.

"Happy birthday, Dane." Zole handed the exquisitely packaged gift box to Dane's hands. The outer packaging was small and exquisite, and it was impossible to tell what was inside.

Dane thanked him and took it over. The moment his hands overlapped, Zolai's index finger touched the back of Dane's hand, and stroked it lightly along the delicate skin. It was almost an instant movement, and Dane Subconsciously glanced at Heinrich, and found that the other party's line of sight was not here, he was relieved, and then found an excuse to go to another place.

When passing the terrace, Dane heard Creek's voice. It may be because the terrace is located in a remote location. The people behind the curtain did not deliberately lower their voices, but their tone was very arrogant. Some obvious words in the words made Dai En's footsteps paused and he decided to finish listening.

"A sparrow will always be a sparrow, but it's just a moment of complacency. Let's see how long Colonel Fitzgerald can be complacent after he has a real blood heir."

"At that time, I'm afraid even the surname will be taken away."

"If you don't come, it doesn't belong to his surname. At best, it's just returned to the original owner. How can it be called being taken away?"

"Hahaha...hahaha..."

The laughter stopped abruptly when Dane turned to the back of the curtain. Creek looked at Dane and his eyes almost burst into flames. How come Dane bumped into him every time he said these things, but the other party still looked like The arrogant look, as if mocking him for being just a clown.

"I don't allow you to worry about my affairs. Even if the colonel finally has his own blood heir as you said, I will be better than you at that time." Dane had a very light sarcasm on his face. Turned around and left.

In addition to several parties involved, this scene also fell into the eyes of the two brothers of the Borghez family. Corey's gaze has been following Dane today, but because Dane has been staying by Heinrich's side, he can't find him. Seeing the right opportunity to strike, there are other ways now. Corey looked at Crick's eyes that were about to spit fire, and smiled playfully. I'm afraid someone would be happy to do it for him.

After Dane left from the terrace, he went back to his room directly. He still carried the gift from Zolai just now. After returning to the room, he opened it and found an emerald brooch inside. There was a coolness, it was very beautiful, and it must not be ordinary. Dane took the box back after playing with it in his hand for a few times, and then went downstairs. Even though Heinrich was the main friend of those guests, he as Today's protagonist cannot be absent for too long.
