I weave my destiny in parallel time and space

Chapter 420 A negligible price (page 12)

"Click~"

The iron door of the cell was opened, and a group of soldiers came in and took Joan away.

Through this familiar, dark and damp corridor, Joan of Arc came to the hall again.

Malfoy was already sitting behind the table waiting for her, with a flash of sarcasm in his dark eyes.

There was a document placed in front of him.

The soldier pressed Joan down and made her sit on the chair opposite him.

"Let's see," said Malfoy.

Joan of Arc had no worries, but raised her hand to look at the document in front of her, which was the armistice treaty signed between West France and Prussia.

The treaty was very detailed, and Joan of Arc read it very carefully. Finally, she saw the names of President Cartier and Malfoy at the end.

But I didn't see her name.

"Pfft hahahahaha!!!"

Malfoy opposite him finally couldn't hold back and laughed happily.

"Joan of Arc, Joan of Arc, you told me a few days ago that you have nothing to fear except treason."

"But what if your country abandons you?" Malfoy had a sarcastic smile on his lips, "You worked hard for West France, and even took the risk of entering Berlin alone to negotiate with my father, leaving your life behind, but you How does your country repay you?"

“After the armistice agreement was signed, they abandoned you directly and abandoned you in this place that everyone calls purgatory.

Like a piece of garbage that has been completely used. "

The smile on Malfoy's face became even more wanton.

"Joan of Arc, do you regret that you have sacrificed everything for this country?"

However, the smile on his face soon stopped, because she saw that Joan's expression did not change at all, and she just silently closed the document in front of her.

"Thank you for telling me all this, and thank you for letting me know that everything I work hard has results."

"Then what? Aren't you desperate? Are you angry?" Malfoy stood up and slammed the table, suppressing his anger and said, "Don't pretend to be calm in front of me, Jeanne! You can't fool me."

Malfoy had commanded several battles a few years ago, and almost all of them ended in perfect victory.

This is also the reason why he can become the commander-in-chief of the Verdun battlefield, not just because he is a prince.

When he first became the commander-in-chief of the Verdun battlefield, he was very proud and felt that he would definitely lead Prussia to victory in this war and would successfully take over the throne of his father in the future.

However, reality gave him a blow.

The Verdun defense line led by Joan of Arc blocked their attack like a wall reaching the sky.

On this battlefield, he experienced unprecedented frustration, and it was precisely because of his defeat on this battlefield that he led to a series of troublesome events.

Malfoy has always known what kind of person he is, insidious, cunning, greedy, selfish, full of suspicion and distrust.

Compared to his own interests, even if he imprisoned his father, he would not hesitate to sacrifice hundreds of thousands of lives.

He never felt that there were any truly good people in this world. Even those who seemed friendly on the surface might have extremely dirty thoughts behind their backs.

But at this moment, Joan of Arc's existence ruthlessly shattered all his perceptions.

Her existence was like a mirror, perfectly reflecting his opposite side and his ugliness.

Her brilliance and excellence made Malfoy, who originally thought he was excellent, appear so incompetent.

This is also the source of his anger.

He was extremely eager for the dazzling Joan of Arc to show her ugly face, and for this aloof angel to fall into the mortal world.

So after successfully signing the armistice agreement, he took the documents to Montjuic without stopping.

But everything was the opposite of what he thought.

Joan's calmness was like a slap in the face that was extremely loud.

"Why should I be angry?" Joan of Arc asked, "What I save is the people of West France, not the politicians of West France. What the politicians do is their business.

With the signing of the armistice agreement, the people of West France will no longer be affected by the war and will no longer worry that one day a cannonball will be thrown in their face. This is enough for me. "

Joan's eyes were very calm, "I understood a few years ago that it is impossible to get everything you want. If you want to get something, you must let go of something at the same time."

Malfoy stared at her, trying to see any fear in her eyes, but the fact was that he couldn't see it at all.

He had never seen such clear eyes in his life, even though she had been in such a dark prison for a while.

"Aren't you afraid?" Malfoy said in a low voice, "Do you think the clothes Tesla left you can protect you from death?"

In Malfoy's opinion, the military uniform with special functions used to protect Joan of Arc should have been made by Tesla.

But Joan of Arc had no intention of explaining anything to him.

"Of all the despicable emotions, fear is the most despicable," replied Joan.

"You may die and be executed in public." Malfoy continued, "Aren't you afraid of death?"

"Fear." Joan of Arc nodded undeniably, "But I have a clear conscience, and I will naturally die calmly."

The jailers who were standing straight around seemed to be moved by these words.

They looked at each other, as if they could see movement in each other's eyes.

Malfoy took a deep breath and slowly stood upright. There was no longer anger in his eyes, but it was not appreciation either, as if he had completely lost interest in a toy.

He said, "Call the chief judge over, and take her down."

The soldier who followed Malfoy on one side nodded.

"Yes."

"Take her to the room above and prepare her a supper," said Malfoy.

The soldier understood what Malfoy meant, nodded, and then motioned to the other jailers to take her out of the room.

They did not take Joan to the lowest level of the prison where she had lived before, but started to go up. This is where the jailers live. It is more like a staff dormitory than a prison.

But the place where she lives is on the top floor, which should be the room where the warden lives. The decoration inside is very exquisite, with carpets, beds, and even a simple wooden wardrobe.

This may be Malfoy's hospice care for Joan, or it may be that he wants Joan to experience the beauty of life and then die in despair with the desire for life.

Montjuic Castle was originally used as a war fortress, so the windows are very small, but there is a large window here that can overlook the sea in the distance.

However, this window is bound by many grilles made of iron bars, but even without these grilles, there is no way to escape through this window, because it is too high, it is on a high tower.

"About seven o'clock in the evening, your dinner will be delivered to you." The soldier in military uniform saluted Joan of Arc, and then slowly retreated from here.
