Chapter 196
It has to be said that the British have never been tired of ghosts and ghost stories. Every year, Halloween is the time for a hundred ghosts in the British islands to travel at night. The British used to not pay attention to Halloween. Perhaps it was stimulated by the Halloween carnival scenes in the United States. As the big cousin of the United States, it naturally refused to fall behind, so they also devoted more and more energy to Halloween. In fact, Halloween is the third largest retail event under the recession this year.
Beep
Hearing the whistle of the car, Arthur got up from the sofa, came to the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked down. Eddie and Emilia, dressed in black Harry Potter wizard robe, got off the Ferrari, laughed and walked towards the BMW that followed, opened the trunk, and greeted the waiters and maids to get things.
Arthur smiled and walked out of the study room quickly, stepped down the oak stairs, walked through the magnificent living room, came to the front of the main entrance, and smiled and said, "You are moving the Halloween counter home!"
Looking at the BMW's back seat and trunk full of Halloween items, including costumes, decorations, spider webs for decorating the room, strange masks, and various horror movie costumes, you can really say you have it all.
Hearing Arthur's teasing, Emilia smiled and took out a bag of toffee from the trunk, swayed in front of Arthur, making a sound.
“trikortreat!” (Troubleshoot if you don’t give me any candy)
Arthur said very well, pretending to be a child's voice, which caused everyone around him to chuckled.
"This is the costume I bought for you, the Vampire Earl suit!" Eddie handed Arthur a handbag, then took out a small box from his pocket, raised his eyebrows at Arthur and said, "And this, Vampire Fangs, see if you like it."
Arthur took the box, opened it, took out two white fangs from it, then pressed it directly on his teeth, took out a black and red cloak, put it on, and stretched out the cloak with a very stylish look.
"Hmph~ Haha~ I'm back again with Count! Elegant killing, hunger, the best seasoning! The more I refuse, the more I want to eat you. The slutty guy always perishes, it's not a vampire, but a human being!
Hum~ Haha~ I'm not picky about food at all. Have you ever heard of my horror stories? I love to suck blood!
If there is greed in humans, I cannot be eliminated. Humph! Go home, I love killing, a true nobleman, the taste of immortality!”
Arthur had a gloomy face, showing his hideous fangs and laughter, and spoke lines from Count Dracula, the king of his previous life, in a low aria. This interpretation made Eddie and Emilia lit up and full of drama.
"Pai Pa"
"I really feel like my hair is standing up..." Emilia clapped and clapped, and stroked her arm twice exaggeratedly.
"Haha, not bad, I realized that you actually have the talent for acting." Eddie also clapped and chuckled.
"Haha, I'm not a performance. I'm really hungry. It's past two now. Just to wait for you two, I think we can have lunch!" Arthur rolled his eyes and smiled at Paul, the butler who also applauded his performance.
"Okay, lord, I'll have someone prepare right away." The housekeeper Paul said with a smile.
"Come here, help us get it..." Eddie put a cardboard box full of masks on Arthur's hand.
"Why did you buy so many masks?"
"Aren't you going to have a big party? You will definitely be able to use it then." Eddie said, and he picked up a cardboard box and walked into the castle together.
Arthur shook his head without comment. They didn't know how big this so-called big party had been made by the housekeeper Paul...
Since Arthur regarded lunch as a regular meal, Bolin's lunch has become very rich, and today's table has also added pumpkin pie and toffee apples, one of the main elements of Halloween.
Arthur especially likes to eat this toffee apple. The production method is quite similar to the candied haws I often ate in my previous life. Put the apples in bamboo sticks, then put the apples in toffee syrup and turn them. Some of them will also be stained with nuts on them, which is very delicious.
"What are you going to do in the afternoon?" Arthur asked at the dining table, looking at Emilia and Eddie.
"Make a few pumpkin lanterns first, then go to the farm, be a few scarecrows, and insert them into the woods and grass slopes. This will make you feel even more terrifying at night." Eddie raised his eyebrows and said.
Arthur's mouth tugged, okay, my cheap sister is so fascinated by these weird things, otherwise she wouldn't have participated in the makeup event held in London by Resident Evil.
Speaking of the origin of the pumpkin lantern, there is a hint of funny ingredient. The prototype of this pumpkin lantern is actually a hollowed-out radish. Later, it became popular because pumpkins were easy to carve.
Speaking of this custom, it is inseparable from a drunkard named Jack. Legend has it that one day he tricked the demon into a tree engraved with a cross until the demon promised to cast a spell so that he would never sin. After he died, his soul could neither go to heaven nor hell, and could only wander around the world with a candle placed in a carrot. Over time, today's pumpkin lantern was formed.
"Then I wish you all the fun." As he said that, Arthur took the napkin and wiped his mouth, stood up with a smile and said, "I'll eat it, you can enjoy it slowly."
Looking at Arthur's back, Eddie's beautiful eyes flashed with light and he whispered to Emilia: "Actually, he is very brave and refuses to watch all horror movies. When I was a child, I proposed to go to the basement to explore at night. He never dared, and he hated Halloween even more..."
Upon hearing Eddie's revelation, Emilia blinked her radiant eyes and said in disbelief: "No, he is actually afraid of ghosts?"
"Or, we..." Eddie whispered with a bright light of danger and expectation in his eyes.
"It's not good... I'm worried that he's really angry." Emilia was also a little expectant in her heart, but she was afraid that she would really make Arthur angry.
"It's okay, he won't be angry." Eddie smiled wickedly, looking like he was trying.
"..." Emilia bit the pumpkin pie, her eyes shining and chose to remain silent, but the corner of her mouth was still betrayed her expectations.
Arthur, who returned to the study, did not know that the two women downstairs wanted to commit pranks on him. Unfortunately, what disappointed Eddie was that Arthur is not afraid of any ghosts, nor any horror movies.
So, when night fell, Arthur, who was watching the book leisurely with coffee, heard the knock on the door, stood up and opened the door.
"puff"
"Ahhh"
In the dark corridor, a woman with a disheveled hair, wearing a Sadako horror mask, screamed in surprise, because Arthur on the opposite side not only sprayed the coffee in her mouth on her face, but also poured the coffee in her coffee cup on her.
"Oh, I was so scared, I was really scared!"
Arthur looked lingering fear, patted his heart and calmed himself down. After watching the scream, he was glaring at Eddie with his dark pupils, and the coffee on his hair was dripping. That embarrassed look.
"Puchihahaha..."
Arthur couldn't help but laughed.
"asshole!"
Eddie raised his foot, kicked Arthur, turned around and left angrily, while Emilia, who was hiding at the other end of the corridor, covered her mouth and felt uncomfortable laughing.
