Quickly wear cannon fodder, she is so charming without even knowing it

Chapter 42 The fairy in the painting is a tool man (19)

Curtis glanced at the broken wine glass that he smashed on the ground, raised his eyebrows, and saw his lips slowly raising a seductive arc, which was both cold and gentle, making people breathe tight, and then He said, "That's just right. I don't want to stay here now anyway."

After saying that, he turned around and left the banquet hall, leaving only a cold and arrogant figure behind. Duke Holden gritted his teeth in anger.

Enid, who had already stood up and followed Curtis, secretly glanced at him. Her eyes were slightly red, as if tears were rolling around her, and her mouth was pouted, trying to hold back her tears. He was crying as if he had been greatly wronged.

Enid moved her lips and was about to speak, but Duchess Penses on the side quickly held her hand, shook her head and signaled her with her eyes not to make any sound.

When everyone in the banquet hall saw this, they also hurriedly reconciled: "Hey, don't be angry, Duke Holden, and communicate with your children~"

"Yes, yes, Duke Holden, don't take it too seriously and keep drinking."

"Today is your birthday party. Besides, His Majesty the King will be coming over soon. It would not be good if His Majesty the King finds out about this. Just let him go and let us drink ours."

Everyone tried to persuade him, but Duke Holden's face didn't look happy at all, but filled with anger!

Curtis, he really didn’t expect that he would be so arrogant in front of him!

He always thought that even if this kid was out of his control, he would at least be a little wary of him. Now it seems that he doesn't need to be wary at all!

Because he has long been determined to go against himself!

Thinking of this, Duke Holden's fists clenched and his joints cracked.

Outside the banquet hall, Curtis walked all the way towards another castle in the distance, his face getting colder and colder, and his eyes shone with a cold light.

Soon, he arrived at the gate of the castle.

When the guard saw Curtis coming back, he immediately bowed respectfully and asked, "Master Curtis, do you have any orders?"

Curtis glanced at the guard indifferently, "It's okay!"

The guard was stunned and lowered his head in confusion for a moment: "Yes"

Listening to this humble and timid voice, Curtis felt even worse.

When he lowered his head, the guard seemed to see the fierceness in his eyes, and immediately stepped aside without daring to say a word.

Curtis stepped in, climbed the stairs, and walked to the door of the study. He pushed the door open and walked in. Then he closed the door, and his eyes suddenly fell into darkness.

He reached out and fumbled and pressed a button, and the study instantly became bright.

This study room is very large, with a large green tree placed in the corner, surrounded by various antique books, and many precious treasures placed on the bookshelves.

There was also a set of sofas and a glass-topped table in the middle, with a bottle of wine and several wine glasses placed on them. He walked to the sofa and sat down, leaning on the sofa with his whole body and closed his eyes to relax. After a long time, he Then he opened his eyes.

Curtis reached out and picked up the red wine on the table, poured a glass of red wine directly, then picked up the wine glass and shook it, and then took a sip.

Everything seemed so peaceful and beautiful. The moon outside the window at night was very bright, bright and soft.

He suddenly stood up and walked to the balcony to overlook the scene below him. Looking at the scenery outside the balcony at night, it reminded him of that night five years ago. The fantasy of those few seconds seemed to be imprinted in his mind. The same thing made him think he had seen a god. Recalling this scene again, a smile slowly formed on his lips.

Suddenly, with sharp eyes, he saw several men in black climbing over the wall from the outside of the castle in the distance under the moonlight. So he put down his wine glass, turned around and walked to the side of the desk, opened the drawer and picked up a pistol inside.

It took only a short moment to complete this series of actions, and then he pressed the button of the room light to turn off the light, and the whole room fell into darkness again.Then he lifted his legs and stepped to the other end of the sofa, reaching out and opening the curtains.

Curtis looked at the men in black who were approaching here outside, with a glimmer of light in his eyes.

His eyes sank slightly, and a joking smile flashed in his eyes: Ha~ This makes people curious. Who specifically chose this time period to sneak in at Duke Holden's birthday party? This time he wanted to Look what these people want to do!

As a person who doesn't like to be passive very much, he doesn't mind taking the lead in this action!

At this moment, in this dark place, the men in black had entered the castle in two groups. After checking around, they stopped and saw that they were preparing to use tools to climb up the balcony.

Seeing this, Curtis dodged and hid behind the only big green tree in the study, just enough to cover his figure. At this time, in a room in the castle, a maid was cleaning the room, but she was interrupted by a man in black. The man jumped over from the balcony and hit her on the back of the neck, knocking her unconscious.

Then, another man in black quickly rushed towards the maid's position, after confirming that she was really fainted.

He turned back to the strong masked man in black and said, "Well done, Arnold."

The man named Arnold grinned when he heard this, "Hey...what's this little thing? As long as the money is in place, it's easy to talk about anything, but it's a pity. Count Rossassi told him not to alarm anyone, otherwise I would have killed this little girl long ago."

After saying that, he glanced at the unconscious maid on the ground, with a hint of evil in his eyes.

"Don't worry, we will be rich after doing this. Let's find something quickly. The boss and Yale are already looking for it on the other side. Let's go to the other study." The masked man in black patted Arnold's shoulder and said.

Arnold nodded after hearing this: "Well... we'll go there now."

After the two of them finished speaking, they quickly walked towards another room.

In the study here, Curtis waited for a while, and sure enough he heard a slight noise coming from outside the balcony. He hid behind the green trees in the corner and secretly observed the whereabouts of the two men in black. Their They behave very cautiously and don't make much noise even in the dark.

The two came to the bookshelf. They divided their labors and quickly searched all the books on the bookshelf. They seemed to be looking for something.

Curtis frowned, who sent them?

At this moment, one of the men in black suddenly turned around and walked to the other side of the shelf where various antiques were placed.

"Boss, I still haven't seen that painting. Is the news accurate?"

one of them asked.

Another person nodded after hearing this: "The news must be accurate... That painting should be collected. According to the news given by Count Rossassi, they are in Holden every year." On the day of the Duke's birthday party, he sent people to look for the painting, but failed every time. This time, the Count received news from a hidden source that the painting was hidden in the study of Duke Holden's castle. There may be a secret room hidden in this study, Yale, you have to be patient and look for it again."

"But...Boss, can you turn on the light? How can I find the mechanism that opens the secret room in the dark?"

The masked man named Yale turned to ask another masked man in black.

The masked man was silent for a moment and then said: "Isn't there moonlight? You are not that blind, right? What's more, Arnold and Walter have already looked for it in another study. To be on the safe side, we can also find this study. If you want to find it, quickly check the seemingly hidden corner of this study, it is very likely that the opening of the secret room is hidden."

"Okay!" Yale nodded after hearing this, and then continued to search.
