Emma and Mr. Darcy's ability to speak sweet words is about the same, and they are all scumbags (except when Emma is acting), but Mr. Darcy's thick skin is far behind.

Strictly speaking, these words of Emma are not even sweet words, but Mr. Darcy still felt a surge of joy and happiness in his heart, followed by an irrepressible embarrassment.He tilted his head and gave a low cough, the tips of his ears exposed from his neatly curly hair were bright red.

Emma was a little embarrassed at first, but she became calm when she saw Mr. Darcy's performance, and the corner of her mouth couldn't help but twitched.She has also seen Mr. Darcy's words and deeds during this period. Mr. Darcy's willingness to respect her under such circumstances means that he has really kept her words in his heart, and he is willing to make some compromises and change.Emma was worried that Mr. Darcy would not be able to do it due to his concepts and his own logic, but now it seems that Mr. Darcy has adapted well.Then, she will not stubbornly stick to her original idea, maybe they can find a way to get along with each other.Like now, maybe saying that is a lot better than silently refusing to help.

Emma was right in thinking that the effect of these words was better than she had imagined.Until Emma said that she had something to do and told the servants to leave first, her words just now echoed in Mr. Darcy's ears.

Although Emma still did not ask Mr. Darcy to take action in the end, nor did she say her specific plan. The occasional occasions where Mr. Darcy was required to come forward were to make things reasonable or to avoid Mr. Darcy being suspected, but Mr. Darcy did not feel unjustified. Trusted and distanced, his chest was filled with happiness and satisfaction.For Emma, ​​he is helpful, and even this kind of help is indispensable. What could make him happier than this?

That night, a suspicious person tried to sneak in outside the squad room of the police station, but fled quickly after being discovered.Although the identities of those who tried to infiltrate have not been identified, the most important prisoners in the classroom are the two who tried to kidnap Emma. The others are either thieves or drunk rascals, fighting idlers, and they are not worth rescuing.Nothing happened this time, but the police officers still cheered up.

Because a gun was fired, the police station didn't want the news to leak out and couldn't hide it.The next evening, Emma and Mr. Darcy came to the police station.

Why at this time?What is the purpose of the two coming?Officer Skater was secretly vigilant.

In fact, Emma would ask Mr. Darcy to come with her only because Mr. Darcy couldn't justify not coming out when something like this happened.But Sergeant Scat didn't know that Mr. Darcy was his main vigilante.

Ladies first, Emma walked into the police station first, but Officer Skater kept his eyes on the tall figure behind her. Mr. Police Officer, who was guarding against the wrong person, could not find the purpose of this trip on Mr. Darcy's face , he was a little apprehensive of what Mr. Darcy might do to interfere with his plans.There shouldn't be any mistakes in the whole escort, right?Officer Scat walked over and greeted with a smile: "Good day, Miss Kentra, Mr. Darcy."

Unlike Emma's gentle response, Mr. Darcy glanced at the person who greeted him. "Good day." There was nothing wrong with the etiquette, but it was a little too cold.

Officer Scott was a little confused, he didn't remember offending this haughty gentleman, why did he respond so coldly?What Mr. Darcy said next solved his doubts.

"I thought the walls of the police station were reliable enough, but some people tried to rescue the prisoners, which made me doubt my previous thoughts. In order to avoid the escape of the prisoners, it is better to transfer them to the city. "Although Mr. Darcy did not directly accuse the police officers of ineffective supervision, his dissatisfaction was revealed in both words and deeds.

Police officer Skater suddenly realized, but he absolutely could not agree to transfer the prisoner away. He had no contact with the prisoner, but this did not mean that the two were useless, it was just that the trust he received was not enough.He has received instructions that someone will ask for information about the two prisoners in a few days. "The identities of the infiltrators have not been confirmed last night, but they have not been able to contact the two prisoners at all. Our protective measures are very strict. Please rest assured."

"Failed to reach the prisoner?" Mr. Darcy seemed reassured by the information.

Officer Scat quickly said: "Of course, swear to God, we will never allow such an incident to happen." This is a very solemn oath for a parish police officer.

Mr. Darcy seemed a little surprised at what Officer Scat said, and glanced at him. "I hope so. Then..." He seemed to have given up on his original proposal, and was interrupted by Emma before he could finish speaking. "In this case, can we take a look at the place where the prisoners are held?"

It was obviously inappropriate for a lady to enter the cell, but Emma was very persistent, and no one else could force her to stay outside, so she agreed.

The place where the two prisoners were held was not a shift, but a separate cell with small windows for ventilation, and the light was very poor in the evening, so a candlestick was placed in the room for lighting.

Everything was the same as the news from Emma.Emma breathed a sigh of relief.Usually the prisoners would be locked in the classroom. Last night, in order to confuse the public, she let the servants pretend to spy on the classroom and cause a commotion. Today, she could find a legitimate reason to visit the prisoner.In this way, no one suspects that the guy who came to save people has inside information. The disadvantage is that there is no way to see the prisoner's environment.And her plan was designed according to this environment, and she was relieved to see her with her own eyes today.

The cell was very small, and the number of people who could come in was limited. Apart from Emma, ​​Mr. Darcy and their servants, there were only two police officers, including Officer Scat.

Emma said that she was pure and didn't understand these things, and asked a servant she brought to ask Officer Scat for specific emergency safety measures.The two talked while walking, and under the intentional guidance of the servant, the two walked to the candlestick.The servant suddenly shook his head, his eyes lost focus. "I'm a little dizzy..." Before Officer Scat could ask "What's the matter with you", he staggered and threw himself on him. The weight of the servant made Officer Scat stand unsteadily and hit the candlestick. The angle was found very well, and the speed was fast enough. The back of his head hit the ground firmly, and he fainted immediately.Another servant hurried to help them, stomping on the candle.

Emma applauded the coquettish move of the servant silently in her heart. On the surface, she was so frightened that her body became weak and she couldn't stand upright. Another servant supported her and stepped aside.

Mr. Darcy and the other officers helped the wounded Sergeant Scat and the servant out.

For the time being, only Emma, ​​the servant and two prisoners were left in the house.In the chaos, everyone's attention was focused on the two injured, but soon someone would notice the missing Miss Kentra, and Emma estimated that she only had five to ten minutes.

The sudden farce surprised the handcuffed prisoners, but something even more surprising happened.Miss Kentra, who has been silent like a simple decoration, did not follow out, but walked over quickly.

Although he suffered a loss when trying to kidnap the lady, everyone believed that it was the work of the cautious and resourceful servants.The two prisoners felt that the noble lady probably wanted to muster up the courage to persuade them to confess as soon as possible. The naive and stupid approach was also a rare opportunity.

The two prisoners looked at each other, and one of them said: "I..." We are not real prisoners, but farmers who were arrested to replace them.He meant to say so, so that if the innocent lady came any closer in surprise, he would have the opportunity to reach through the railing and grab her.

Emma had no time for their nonsense. "I was told it was Mr Brown who was behind the kidnapping and murder."

The faces of both of them changed.One of them stood up abruptly and said sharply: "What! He..." The prisoner who was going to speak just now grabbed him to stop him from continuing. See if this thing is made up. "That's a rumor."

It didn't matter whether they believed it or not, Emma just wanted to test the importance of Mr. Brown in these people's hearts.She worried that her kidnappers and George's hunters would have different attitudes about Mr. Brown, but luckily they didn't.Then she can cut to the chase. "I think what he said makes sense. Otherwise, you and your father and brother have never met, so why would you target the Kentra family?"

"Your father..." The impulsive person was interrupted again.

Emma glanced outside, and said in a low voice: "Tell me your reasons, otherwise my brother can only think that you were ordered by your uncle. You were once under uncle's subordinates, and you probably know that uncle and father were actually an alliance back then. Back then His unit was sent to India to suppress the rebellion. The chief commanded them to massacre civilians and use the corpses of civilians as rebels to claim credit. After being exposed, all should be punished. It was his father who forged the proof that his uncle fainted and did not kill anyone. He was court-martialed. My brother said he didn't want to hurt my uncle by mistake."

The two of them didn't really believe the last sentence. Even if they were relatives, Mr. Brown and the old Earl of Kentra's family had cut off contact since the accident ten years ago. How much affection could George have for Mr. Brown?The Kentra family wanted to bring down Mr. Brown with the events of the past, and they themselves couldn’t get away with it. It is estimated that the Earl of Kentra wanted to test whether Mr. Brown was the real culprit behind the scenes, and whether it was worth paying the price to turn over the old accounts of the year.Mr. Brown was kind to them. Although the two of them didn't want to tell what happened back then, they couldn't produce any evidence today that could convince the young Earl of Kentra. If Mr. Brown was really involved, wouldn't it be revenge.After a moment of hesitation, the man who had been acting more cautiously spoke first. "Your father framed us as collaborators."

Emma's eyes widened, as if she was shocked by the news and didn't know what to say, she reacted and immediately retorted: "Full of lies!" Emma raised her voice slightly in order to make the trick more realistic. "If it was really my father who did it, why do you murder him in a sneaky way? You can just submit the evidence to the court and clear yourself of the crime."

There are reasons for this.If they really had enough evidence, they would have done so long ago, but they turned over the study while Clark was attacking the old Earl of Kentra, and then carefully recovered for cover-up purposes.Later, he kidnapped the old housekeeper's son, but failed to find any evidence to file a lawsuit.The two of them still hesitated whether to tell the clues in their hands.

Emma didn't expect to be able to get the words out easily, so she changed the topic. "Besides, why does father have any reason to take such a risk to attack you?"

Neither of them spoke.They felt that their vengeance against the Kentra family was justified.Whether it is the old Earl of Kentra or the young Earl of Kentra, they should pay the price of their lives.But I just don't want to hurt this Miss Kentra.On the one hand, as a woman, she definitely did not participate in the conspiracy. On the other hand, she and her mother were arrested after receiving false news, and later killed her mother by mistake in front of her. I owe her a lot .At the beginning, they had hinted that Clark had to marry Emma and treat her well in order to legitimately inherit the Kentra family.This kidnapping did not intend to hurt her, but only to attract the little Earl of Kentra.Both of them were participants in the incident back then, and they always felt wronged to tell Emma about the grievances that year.

Seeing that the two were silent, Emma smiled triumphantly. "It seems you can't answer that question."

Seeing that Emma was going to believe that they were making up things without telling the reason, and the consequences would be to implicate Mr. Brown. The calmer person thought about it and gave part of the basis: "Ten years ago...the accident happened. At that time, all those who participated in the incident of that year were there."

Emma took a step back, most of her face was covered by shadows, her hands clenched into fists, her chest heaved violently.Because she looked like she was about to faint, the servant hurried over to help her: "Miss..." Emma's voice was trembling: "So it's you! You have no real evidence, just because your father has an old grudge with you , who happened to be involved in this incident, so they decided that it was my father who killed my mother, not only did not repent, but also designed to kill my father, murder my brother, and kidnap me?"

"Of course not!" Facing the victim's bloody and tearful accusation, this time even the calm person couldn't help but explain.

Another person spoke faster than him: "Jason's traitor, he knew about it a long time ago, and he found a reason to fight some people who hadn't participated in that incident back then, and some people were seriously injured and couldn't participate That way fewer innocent people were implicated in that attack. He died saying 'this is our sin'. I'd swear it was old Kentra's trap."

Was it Jason?Emma smiled triumphantly in her heart.She tried every means to inquire in person at the risk, just because she was a victim of the year because of her special status, and changing servants might not be able to stir up their words.According to her observation, what the man confided in a hurry should be the truth.

Although he still wanted to get more information, after the man blurted out these few words, he kept silent.Emma knew that she would not be able to ask for more information in a short time today, so in order to avoid people outside being suspicious, she said with trembling lips, "I don't believe it." Then she fell limply into the servant's arms.The servant quickly helped her out.
