As noon approaches, the translator Zhang Lixing stood up and left his room. The banquet for various consulates was held next to the evening, and the preparations were about to begin in the afternoon.

He also needs to confirm the call to confirm the receipt after receiving the invitation.

But Zhang Lixing was blocked by Qian Xiaobao as soon as he walked to the door.

"Brother Zhang, please trouble you." Qian Xiaobao said with a smile.

"I plan to borrow some things in your room. These things are urgently used during the evening party," Qian Xiaobao said.

"What?" Zhang Lixing asked.

Qian Xiaobao flashed and revealed two half-meter square wooden boxes behind him.

Without saying anything, Qian Xiaobao carried two wooden boxes into Zhang Lixing's room with difficulty.

"What is this?" Zhang Lixing asked vigilantly. What important things need to be placed in his room?

Qian Xiaobao opened a gap in the wooden box and strands of white air emerged. Zhang Lixing also felt a hint of chill.

"Is there ice?" Zhang Lixing immediately woke up. During the party, whether it was to chill the whole bottle of wine or add the ice cubes directly into the wine glass, it required a lot of ice.

"I'll tell the truth to Brother Zhang. The old turtle old Qian wants to frame me. He bullied me for the first time buying and had no experience and told me about the need to buy ice!" Qian Xiaobao said angrily.

Zhang Lixing handed over the order to Lao Qian on the day Madame Gene arranged the matter.

Madame Gene will not write it on the list if buying ice cubes. However, Qian Xiaobao will not know.

Zhang Lixing felt murderous intent on Qian Xiaobao.

"Don't make too much trouble," Zhang Lixing advised.

"I won't make a fuss. Will I still solve the problem without saying a word?" Qian Xiaobao said with a sneer.

When Zhang Lixing walked to the living room, he happened to see Lao Qian directing the servants to place the flowers he had just sent in the living room.

He hurriedly walked out of the consulate.

When there were half an hour before the reception, cars were parked at the entrance of the consulate one after another.

Madame Genet was about to go out to greet the guests with her husband and asked to prepare drinks before she was ready.

A Russian maid in her twenties found Qian Xiaobao and said in fluent Northeast dialect: "Old Qian asked me to ask you where did you put the ice cubes you bought? Now that the customer has arrived, you will use it soon!"

Qian Xiaobao immediately opened his eyes wide and said, "Ice cubes? Lao Qian didn't ask me to buy ice cubes!"

"Oh!" the maid screamed and covered her mouth. Then she ran out quickly.

After a while, Lao Qian walked in like a gust of wind.

"You didn't buy ice cubes? What should I do? It's too late to buy it now! Why is your child so young that he lost everything!" Lao Qian said. He did not speak harshly but complained like an elder.

If Qian Xiaobao is still ignorant of everything now, he may have forgotten it because he really has forgotten it.

"But you really haven't told me!" Qian Xiaobao said aggrievedly.

At this time, several servants had already surrounded him.

"Why didn't I tell you? When did you drink, you didn't prepare ice cubes? You can't do such a simple thing as a child!" Lao Qian said with a heartache.

The twenty yuan I bought for dinner yesterday was fed to the dog! Qian Xiaobao cursed in his heart.

Madame Genet, who heard the news, rushed over with her translator Zhang Lixing.

Zhang Lixing looked unnatural.

"Didn't you sell ice cubes?" asked Madame Gene.

Zhang Lixing looked at Qian Xiaobao when he was translating, but Qian Xiaobao pretended to be aggrieved and refused to speak.

"Madam, the child is so playful that he forgot! Don't blame him, I'll find a way right away! I'll get the ice in half an hour!" Lao Qian said.

While translating Lao Qian's words, Zhang Lixing still looked at Qian Xiaobao who bowed his head and said nothing.

After Lao Qian said this, he disappeared like a gust of wind.

"You disappointed me so much!" Madame Gene said sadly as she looked at Qian Xiaobao.

"Oh, I remembered it! I bought the ice cubes! I'll get it now!" Qian Xiaobao suddenly said like a soul returning to the body. Then he rushed to Zhang Lixing's room.

Unfortunately, Lao Qian did not see this scene.

A Mercedes-Benz was parked on time at the door of the French consulate.

The two of them walked up and down the car and walked towards the Genes at the door in neat steps.

Mr. Genet and Madame Genet showed a hint of contempt in their eyes.

"The Germans who like to walk in a straight line are here." Mr. Genet said to his wife in a low voice.

The person who was wearing military uniforms with the German Consul Hermann was the military officer Von der Braun, who had just arrived in Harbin for not long, and was the person Schultz was approaching.

The Genes' eyes fell on De Braun's pants. The long strip of red cloth on the sides of the pants stretched into the shiny high leather boots.

This is the uniform worn by the officers of the German Army's General Staff. This shows that De Braun has been in the General Staff and is proud of it, so he has been wearing it all the time.

The Genes exchanged glances with each other again.

More than a dozen guests from the consulate arrived one after another.

Mr. Genet stood in the main seat and raised a glass of champagne and turned slightly to pay tribute to Napoleon's half-body statue, and said, "The first glass of wine to the great emperor!"

German Consul Hermann whispered to De Braun: "The only hero in Mr. Genet, who loves freedom, is a tyrant!"

At this time, Lao Qian used a rickshaw to pull two boxes of ice cubes to the entrance of the consulate. The speed was too fast. He probably prepared it in advance and hid it nearby.

But he was surprised to find that plates of ice had been placed in the living room!

Qian Xiaobao walked out of the darkness.

"I've remembered it. You did tell me that you want to buy ice cubes. I did buy it, but I just forgot it in a hurry." Qian Xiaobao said with a smile.

Old Qian opened his eyes wide and looked at Qian Xiaobao. This boy who smiled all day was much harder to deal with than he thought!

The wine makes the atmosphere harmonious like lubricant. Consuls from the originally unfriendly countries also hold wine glasses and chat and laugh together.

The music of French composer Saint Sant's is played on the phonograph.

However, Qian Xiaobao, who was standing in the corner, was ready to deal with the situation at any time, saw that when one consul walked towards another consul with a smile, the other consul avoided it from afar.

"Who are the two of them?" Qian Xiaobao asked Zhang Lixing beside him.

"The one in front is the consul of Lithuania, and the one behind is the consul of the Soviet Union." Zhang Lixing replied casually.

The reception lasted until the early morning.

Lao Qian walked towards home with heavy steps. He was both depressed and nervous.

A dark shadow emerged from the corner.
