Little hero

All Edgar could smell was the burnt smell of hot bullets.

He had never experienced being sniped like this, but he was extremely calm at this time.

There is no doubt that Dort is a qualified sniper. Every shot he hits Edgar's foothold for a second. He is very close to Edgar, but none of the bullets actually hurt him.

Edgar was still holding the bouquet of flowers in his arms. After a whole morning of "running", the dew on the surface of the rose was exhausted, and only the inner interlayer was still relatively moist.The fragrance of the flowers has been covering Edgar's body, he pursed his lips and wondered, where am I going to run?

At this moment, he didn't even know who to ask this question.Because once he said it, he would feel extremely lonely.

This house is not high, and the surrounding ones are about the same height. There are only two floors on the ground. Dot is aiming at Edgar on the second floor with an excellent view. Find a suitable bunker, but he doesn't think there are only himself, Joe, and Dott in this house, so his hiding is likely to be exposed soon, and he needs to find another safe place immediately, or directly caught.

Only then did Edgar suddenly realize a problem. There is such a long way to go from the fifteenth block to the third block, which is equivalent to walking from the edge of the silent city of the capital to the center. It must take a long time for horses to go back and forth, not to mention that there are regulations in the city that horses cannot enter the market except for royal tours and patrols.

Where did he get the confidence that he could persist until his brother came to save him?

Simply incredible.

Edgar sighed silently, and turned into a small room that looked like a nanny's room. He wanted to go in and escape, but he didn't know that it was only a few square meters inside, and he felt a big chill when he entered—such a small room Even a "one-eyed dragon" wearing a blindfold can see everything at a glance. If someone really chases here, won't he even be able to hide?

"call out--"

The unique cracking sound of a certain kind of gun sounded behind him, as piercing as a spoon scraping a bowl vigorously, and finally hit the door frame of the nanny's room with a "bang".Edgar couldn't get off the tiger, he had no way to leave the room, so he could only close the wooden door of the room with his backhand, trying to block the sight of the snipers, but this locked him in the room even more.

There is only one window here. The young nobleman, who is not young, is safe for the time being, but he is even more worried. He is like a bird that has crashed into a cage. As long as the other party guards the door and window, then he is really like Joe said. .

After Edgar left, Joe stayed behind the stairs thinking about how he could break out of the siege, get out of the fifteenth block alive, and then called Edgar's brother.

This is really very difficult. Edgar said that he knew the people who sniped them, and he was confident that he would not be shot, but on the other hand, even if Joe was not the target of sniping, he would be more unnoticed than Edgar. There is a great chance of escaping, but because of this, once Joe is discovered, he will not have the "preferential treatment" like Edgar, and he will probably be killed on the spot as an insignificant person die.

Joe doesn't know how sure Edgar is. He is sure that the sniper knows he is behind the stairs. Once Edgar is out of sight from the sniper's position, he will become a waiting rabbit, and the hunter will follow him. Be sure to wait for him behind the tree you bumped into.

Joe was going crazy, he was swinging between rushing out and not rushing out, guessing between death and immortality, hesitantly clawed at the wall of the stairs and fell into panic.However, at this time, Joe suddenly heard a voice that was too familiar!

The seemingly heavy wooden floor was stepped on, and there was a "squeak" sound, and the sound of friction caused by the rope being pulled was so soft that it was almost inaudible, but Joe could feel the car staggering up.

His feeling was right, someone was indeed using the lift.

who?who is it?

How could someone use a car to come to their stronghold at this time?

There are not many people who will come to this stronghold. Generally, except for Joe, it is the husband and the woman who serves him.And Mr. is not always in the fifteenth block, he is elusive, and his whereabouts will not be disclosed to anyone, including his disciple Joe who was raised by himself.And the husband never goes to the tunnel, the female spirit who is with him will help him deal with everything, so the husband has never used the car.

Joe can conclude that the people who come now must not be from the stronghold.

Joe's heartbeat quickened suddenly. He was right opposite the secret door. As long as someone came out of the car, the secret door was the only way. He would definitely come out from here, and then he saw the nervous looking young Joe down the stairs.

who is it?Who will it be?Who could it be?

The possible lost companions of the sniper?Or the cruel murderer who killed the people of that place underground?

Joe seemed to hear the sound of footsteps. The moment before the secret door opened, he thought to himself as if he had let himself go, am I going to die here?

A bloody and bitter smell of flowers and plants entered Joe's nose. He seemed to think of something, but before he could react, the door opened at an angle, and a red man who seemed to be enveloped in blood appeared at the door. His face was covered in the dark, and he looked terrified, maybe it was a ghost with a locked soul.

Just as Joe was about to scream, the red in his eyes flashed like lightning. Joe's scalp hurt, and he licked the cold blade on his neck. The man's hoarse voice sounded in his ears: "Who are you?"

what are youWho are you?

"put--"

Joe panicked and wanted to yell, but he felt his throat tightened, his hair was pulled more forcefully, the sharp sword was pressed against his throat, and the blade pressed into the skin. The coolness made him feel that his flesh had been cut open.

"Shut up, I'll kill you if you dare to speak out."

The man's voice was colder than iron, and Joe didn't doubt the authenticity of his words, so he obediently shut his mouth.

"Okay, answer me first, who are you?" the man asked.

The bitter flower smell on the man made Joe feel extremely uncomfortable. He turned his head to one side, was driven back by the blade, gritted his teeth and replied truthfully: "Joe, the owner of this house, who are you? Let me tell you, There is a sniper here, if you go out, you and I will die, but I am the owner of this house, I can tell you the location and terrain, and help you get out, so I hope you don't kill me..."

"Don't talk nonsense," the man's tone was not gentle, but his hands were not as strong as before. He then asked, "Where's your companion?"

companion?

Joe was taken aback, this person obviously already knew that he had a companion, but Edgar is not here now, how did this person know?Is it in the tunnel?

"Talk!" the man whispered, "Now is the time for you to talk. If you don't talk, you still won't have a good life."

"Ahem," Joe said after being strangled uncomfortably, and swallowed, "I don't have anything..."

The man hit Joe's shoulder socket with the handle of the knife backhand, and the severe pain seemed to crack a bone.The man repeated: "Your companion, Lan, where is he?"

blue!really!This is another person who came for Lan!

Joe didn't know when this person knew that he and Edgar were together. He still insisted on what he said before: "I tell you, this is the truth. I don't have any companions, and I don't know who you are talking about Lan. Don't you Want to know anything from me!"

"..."

After a while, the pressure on the neck disappeared, and the man let go of Joe, his voice unexpectedly softened a lot, and he ordered in a low voice: "Tell me about the layout of this place, and follow me out of here in a while."

Qiao was taken aback, but he didn't expect him to let go of his hand suddenly, and his heart was not as vigilant as before, but he felt a complete headache when facing the man's words. Like Edgar, he frowned and said, "Did you hear what I said just now? I said there were snipers outside! He knew I was here! He..."

"Then go out too."

The man's body was covered in blood. He squatted in front of Joe, and he could see welts and thick wounds under the torn clothes behind him, but he just squatted there, and he never spoke to Joe after this sentence. The unpleasant smell of flowers and plants made Joe close his eyes in collapse, and finally closed his mouth and followed the man.

"Master, Lan, where is he?" The man asked Joe again while investigating the situation outside.

Joe licked his mouth, only to realize that it was already very dry, and the cracked skin and flesh brushed against the tip of his tongue, which was a little uncomfortable.He thought for a while, as if he really felt that the man was not Edgar's enemy, and then he said: "He rushed out first. It seemed that the sniper was his acquaintance and would not hurt him. Then I took the opportunity to run out and go Third Street Congressional Bureau looking for his brother."

The man was noncommittal, and Joe felt that this person was also an acquaintance of Lan, and it was not good for him to say so, so he said: "This is the potion that Lan gave me. It was originally an item we traded, but the situation is not right now. He left Give me a few, share some with you."

"The potion?"

The man turned his head, his face was covered with blood, but it could be seen that he was not as old as Joe imagined, he was a young man in his twenties.His gray eyes were cold and distant, staring at Joe so hard that he felt uncomfortable.

"How many did he bring?"

"No." When he said this, Qiao was inexplicably guilty, as if he had done something wrong, and regretted how stupid he was for not leaving Lan a little bit, otherwise he wouldn't be so embarrassed now.He said: "There seems to be nothing on Lan, um, yes, there is also a bouquet of roses, one of his transactions with us, I heard it was given to his lover."

"lover?"

The young man said lightly.

"Well, I heard what it's called, uh, Ge'an?"

The young man's body trembled almost imperceptibly, but Jo saw nothing of it.

"Let's go." said the young man.

"Now?" Joe's voice drifted away. Before he finished speaking, the young man had already stepped out from behind the stairs, so he could only follow closely.

I don’t know if the young man’s timing was right or the snipers didn’t care about Joe. Their appearance did not attract any attack. The young man took Joe out from the gate of the house. It was noon and the weather was good, and the outside world was dark It refers to a different tunnel, and you can feel the flow of time all at once.

At this moment, the young man pushed Joe out, and nailed a long knife on the door of the house. The young man's skill was excellent, even though he was injured, he was much more agile than Joe in his heyday.

"Run quickly! Don't turn back!"

After the young man ordered, Joe rushed forward without thinking.

Joe is not a big man who is so important that he needs to be shot, but with the young man around, he can still break through the siege unscathed.

The bullets that flashed like meteors rotated at high speed and came from a distance with the wind. The young man could hear the sound of the bullets flying, calculated the exact direction, and even knew which type of spiral bullet it was.

The blade in his hand successfully resisted from time to time, making the sound of metal hitting and rubbing, his wrist and jaw were numb, but he remained unmoved, pulling Joe by the collar and leading him to avoid bullets flying from all directions.

The power and range of small guns are not far. The young man probably knows how many troops and equipment are there, and he believes that as long as it is not a sniper, no one can shoot him.He threw Joe into a wooden trash bucket, kicked hard, and Joe rolled away in a whirl.

——"The plan is the same as before, you go to the Congressional Bureau, and I will rescue him."

The moment Joe entered the barrel, a word floated into his ears.

Edgar's heart is broken, the worst is to be caught by Dot, he will neither kill himself nor do anything, anyway, he is the young master of the Aujin family, and smart people know what kind of value he has.The person who can serve as a housekeeper for the Auchin family is definitely not a fool. Edgar deduced that no one would directly kill a young master, especially Dot, who watched him grow up. This is neither bearable nor cost-effective.

Edgar broke the pot, and simply got on the extremely small bed in the nanny's room, and wrapped himself up with the dusty quilt—this would give him a lot of sense of security.

He sat for a while, and vaguely heard chaotic footsteps, and then, there were gunshots outside the window, and the sound of shouting and killing.

The young man nervously listened to the gunshot getting further and further away, and then getting closer, as if someone led the gunshot and attracted the sniper's sight.

Just when Edgar was thinking about whether to go to the window to take a look, he saw a shadow behind the veil. The next moment, the glass shattered, someone broke through the window, and several bullets entered the window together behind that person. But the tracks were all parallel to that person, crashing into the wall without ever intersecting.

Edgar saw the shattered pieces of glass vacated in the air behind the gauze curtain, a figure flying in the air and rushing towards him, and a strong scent of blood and orchids rushed towards his face along with that person.In Edgar's eyes there was a shard of shining sunlight, shining untimely at this time, when it flew into the window and could no longer catch the sunlight, it reflected the face of the trapeze outside the window.

That is……

Afterwards, the soft darkness struck——at that moment, the quilt was pulled up, covering Edgar, blinding his sight, the strong force threw Edgar, and the huge momentum made the two of them fall into each other deeply. Stuck in the middle of the bed, Edgar even heard the sound of the bones breaking under him.

The bed was so small, Edgar's ankle hit the bed frame, causing him to grin his teeth in pain, a sore feeling swept his eyes, after smelling the orchid fragrance, Edgar's tears would not stop flowing out.

In the distance, Dort showed his face from behind the sniper mirror, slowly sat up straight, waved his hand to the person behind him, and said, "Stop it. Don't accidentally hurt Master Edgar."

After he finished his gestures, the hail of bullets stopped abruptly, and the killers in all directions came secretly and hid in the dark like an invisible undercurrent.

"Ling, have you seen it?" Dort looked at the window of the small room from a distance, and could only see the overlapping legs of the two of them.

"Gyan Kirk, he is very late."

Dort stood up silently, and with a wave of his hand, someone put away his things. The middle-aged man took the white handkerchief from Ling and wiped his hands, then put the handkerchief into Ling's hand, and said, "Let's go, spirit."

"The trial is over. Next, we have more difficult things to do."

"Okay," Ling prepared the accompanying things, and asked softly, "Then where are you going now?"

"Go to the sixth block, Jidan Guodu University Biochemical Research Branch, I want to see someone."
