The Shadow of Great Britain

Chapter 856: Revised: Chapter 3 Nightingale Mansion_3

And in Joan of Arc’s Orleans Campaign, the guest will play a noble English knight captured by Joan, while we will play the witch of France. You must defend your honor as a knight and your loyalty to England under her severe interrogation.

Of course, if you really can’t stand it and want to bow down to the tyranny of Mary I and Joan of Arc, we can understand. However, for a better experience, I personally think you should at least try to endure it a bit longer.”

Great Dumas, who was listening, suddenly popped his head up and asked: “So, in this French Revolution script, do we need to play as Louis XVI of France? And you and your lovely friends will act as the Jacobins?”

Selina nodded slightly and said: “You are indeed very clever. However, the French Revolution script is not rigid. Considering that some guests insist that Robespierre was a good person, sometimes we also let guests play as French republicans. Depending on their preference, we might then act as Napoleon’s aides or Royalists.”

Great Dumas’s eyes lit up upon hearing this. The Frenchman took a guinea from his pocket and slapped it on the table: “Today, I want to play as a republican… No, wait, I am already a French republican.”

Seeing this, Louis also placed a guinea on the table and said: “There is no need for you ladies to wield the whips. No one understands how to play Napoleon better than I do. Madam, please tell me, where are the props I need for today?”

“Damn it! Louis, are you trying to whip me?”

“No, Alexander, I mean no offense, but I can’t stand by and watch you insult my uncle like this!”

Arthur saw the two Frenchmen getting riled up and took out another guinea, handing it to Selina: “Madam, prepare a good room for them. This gold coin will be your reward. By the way, which room is Mr. Auguste Schneider in? I need to see him.”

Selina was first surprised by this, but quickly accepted it. Different kinds of people frequented the Nightingale Mansion; occasionally running into someone like Great Dumas and Louis was not that unusual.

She accepted the gold coin, smiled, and winked at Arthur: “Sir, thank you for your generosity. I will arrange the room, but… you mentioned looking for someone… I’m sorry, I don’t know who that person is. We have a rule here that we cannot disclose any guest’s identity, whether they have been here or not. It’s a basic form of respect.”

Arthur leaned against the counter and said: “So recording in the rooms also counts as privacy protection for the guests?”

Selina’s face turned pale upon hearing this, but she forced herself to remain calm and said: “Sir, someone as noble as you should not make groundless accusations against others.”

Arthur took a drag of his cigarette and shook his head slightly: “Whether you’re clean or not, no one knows better than I do because I arranged for the recording equipment to be installed. Miss Selina, if you feel you can’t make the decision, then call Fiona to see me. I don’t want to make things difficult for you, and it’s been a while since I last saw her. Bring her over; we can catch up.”

“Uh… you mean Miss Ivan?” Selina hesitated upon hearing this: “I can, but could you wait a bit? It’s her prayer time now, and I’m afraid of angering her. I don’t want her to make things difficult for me later.”

“No problem, madam. If trouble arises, I will handle it.” Arthur said: “I just need you to tell her that Mr. Arthur Hastings is here.”
