The Dark King

Chapter 157

In the lake, the Thorns Flower Prison.

3:16 in the afternoon.

In a bright and gorgeous office on the top floor of the inner castle, Warden Jones and his housekeeper Peter sat in the balcony drinking afternoon tea. On the dining table a black cat was lying on top, eating a piece of bread with meat, Anyone who is familiar with the warden knows that he is a very caring person. He loves to raise some small animals in his life, and the most loved ones are cats and dogs.

He loves these kittens and puppies more than ordinary ladies, and even specially invited a realist oil painting master to paint portraits of his cats and dogs and hang them in his office.

There was a jailer who played cards too late and forgot to give his hound'Cassie' dinner. As a result, no one saw him eat for a week.

"The greedy little guy..." Jones touched the black cat's head and smiled kindly on his face.

At the age of thirty-eight, he sat in this position. In addition to the huge background behind him, his own ability is even more dare not to be ignored.

"It's raining again." Butler Peter looked at the rain outside the window and sighed.

Jones smiled lightly and said, "It's just a little drizzle."

"Light rain will always turn into heavy rain." The butler said sadly.

Jones beckoned to the maid next to him, who understood what he meant, and obediently handed over a pile of woolen jackets. "Is the spine hurt again? Put on." Jones handed the jacket to the housekeeper.

Butler Peter quickly got up and thanked him. After putting on a pile of woolen jackets, he sighed: "Every time during the rainy season, the old problems will be guilty, and they cannot be corrected."

Jones smiled slightly, at this moment, a slender woman walked quickly from the outside, near his ear and whispered a few words.Hearing her words, the smile on Jones's face slowly disappeared bit by bit. He nodded slightly, looking at the light rain outside the window, and said softly: "You are right, light rain will always cause heavy rain. "

The butler noticed the expression on his face and asked, "What happened?"

"A prisoner ran away." Jones whispered, "It's the little guy who came three years ago. Just now the news came from the jailer that he had left the cell and there was a pit and tunnel inside the cell. The tunnel escaped. "

"Prison break?" The butler was a little surprised. "He has tools? It's a lake outside. Where did he escape?"

"It should be a tool that was stolen at work, dug through the bottom of the lake, and ran out of the bottom of the lake." Jones looked out the window, and his finger lightly tapped on the table, saying: "The radius of our lake should be three More than a hundred meters."

The butler was shocked, and said: "Pull out a channel across the bottom of the lake? This, how is it possible, where he has planed such a long channel, where did the soil go?"

The slender woman beside respectfully said: "Listening to the jailer said that the soil was brought into the cell by him, and it was fooled on the wall and the ground. Because the paint was too uniform, he was not noticed by the jailer in the dim light. He only saw it after he entered. The walls and the ground are much higher than other cells."

The butler was stunned and speechless.

Jones raised his hand and stroked the black cat on the table still biting the meat in the bread. The black cat ignored their conversation and concentrated on eating. He gently stroked the fluff on the cat's body and said softly: "will be wanted The order passed on, and in addition, the Black Knights were dispatched to immediately track down the criminal."

"Yes." The slender woman promised and turned to retreat.

"Wait." Jones stopped him, but his gaze was still on the black cat in his hand, and said softly: "The person responsible for delivering food in the last week, let them accompany Cassie."

The slender woman's body was slightly upright, her body tightened, and she quickly turned around and left.

After she left, the steward Peter still couldn't help himself, couldn't help saying: "The structure of our prison should be free of defects. Even if it is outside the excrement, there is also a jailer's duty. How can he run away."

Jones shook his head slightly and said, "There are no defects, perhaps the biggest flaw. This prison is built on the bottom of the lake, and the walls are too thick. We always thought that no one would be stupid enough to chisel such a thick wall, not to mention the bottom of the lake. Other inmates think so too, but this is a misunderstanding. It is not necessary to gouge the wall. The thickness of the wall allows no one to hear the vibration when the little guy passes through the wall. This is the biggest advantage of our prison. Nowadays It is also the biggest drawback."

The housekeeper fell silent and sighed: "If this is the case, this time is a reminder to us. A solid prison has caused the jailers to relax their vigilance. It is too careless. If they are frequently named and checked, they will never let a person dig through. The 100-meter passage escapes, and the round trip time in between can expose him."

Jones nodded slightly, "Fortunately, it's just the little guy on the first floor." After that, he patted the black cat on the table and laughed: "Greedy guy, let's play while we're full."

...

...

There is a small factory on a desolate and remote street in the northern part of the slum.

Du Dean bought some food in a roadside tavern, hired a carriage to come here, and when the carriage arrived, the food he had bought was also eaten in the carriage. After a few days of fatigue, he felt a lot of elimination and his body Some strength was restored.

After getting out of the carriage, Du Dian glanced at the small factory. When he was about to enter, he saw a notice hanging outside the factory. It was his wanted order.

"Only one night later, the wanted order came here, and the efficiency was quite fast." Du Dean's eyes flickered slightly, and he did not avoid it. He still walked to the factory and said to the old man guard: "I'm going to find some people, named Barton, Kruhn, Joseph..."

The old man raised his eyes listlessly, glanced at Du Dean, and said, "They are at work, why are you looking for them?"

Du Dean pulled out three copper coins from his pocket and handed him, said: "Help me call them out, saying that their old friends came to visit them."

When the old man saw the copper coins, he woke up suddenly sleepily, and put away the copper coins with a smile, said: "OK, you are waiting here, I will call you."

After talking, turn around and leave.

Dudi was waiting quietly beside him. The old man didn't recognize him as a person on the wanted order. It was normal for him to have his hair tied up at the moment, which is very different from the appearance of the hair on the wanted order. In these three years, Although the jailer often tortured the prisoner, he did not have a deep impression on the prisoner's face. After all, he had not combed for a long time and was often covered by his hair. No one was interested in remembering a mortal face.

Therefore, the person painted with the image of the jailer is completely different from his actual appearance. Although there is a portrait of him when he first entered prison, showing his delicate facial features, but after three years, his appearance has appeared extremely. Great changes, you must know that the fastest growing stage of a person is from ten to sixteen years old. Now, he is completely different from the childish and tender appearance on the face. In torture, pain and hunger Growing up, his face was thinner and his eyebrows were taller. Although he is only 16 years old now, he has a somewhat mature and cold temperament.

What's more, there was even coal on his face. Even an acquaintance had to stare carefully for a long time before he could see some familiar outlines.

A moment later, the old man returned, followed by four figures, namely Barton, Kruhn, Joseph and Barry.In the past three years, the appearance of the four of them has also changed greatly, but Du Dean still recognized it at a glance.

The four saw Du Dean at the door, a little puzzled on their faces, and approached, "Are you?"

Du Dian smiled slightly and said, "Follow me to the abandoned factory."

"Abandoned factory?" When the four people heard these words, they were suddenly taken aback, and immediately showed the color of surprise. Patton said excitedly: "You are finally back, Di..."

Du Dean raised his hand to interrupt him and said, "Follow me first."

Patton stunned, suddenly thought of something, his face changed, and said nothing more.

The other three glanced at each other, and Barry hesitated a moment, then stopped talking, and finally said nothing.

Seeing that the four of them were going to follow Du Dean, the old man hurriedly said: "While still working, where are the four of you going and don't want a salary?"

Patton even said: "Uncle, please take a leave for us."

"I can't help this." The old man immediately shook his head and refused.

Du Di'an said to the four people: "No more work here, come with me."

The four looked at each other, guessing something vaguely, without saying much.

The old man looked at Du Dean stunnedly and said, "Boy, what do you say, if they leave, the two-month salary will be gone."

Du Di'an ignored him and turned away.

The four immediately followed.

A moment later, Du Dean and the four returned to the abandoned factory in the desert.

"Dean, what the hell is going on, why are you wanted, where have you been in the past three years, and the wanted order says you are a criminal with great sins, what crime did you commit, is it murder? I don’t believe it, Even if it was killed by mistake, it wouldn’t be a crime.” As soon as he arrived at the abandoned factory, Patton asked eagerly, worried.

Du Dian's eyes swept through the faces of several people, and when there was a faint worry on Barry's face, there was a slight gleam in the depths of his eyes, and he said to several people: "That's right on the wanted order, I didn't have it before It’s a crime, but it’s different now.” He looked at the four and said, “Are you willing to do something big with me?”

The four looked at each other, and Kluen asked quietly, "Is it the previous thing?"

Du Dian smiled slightly and shook his head gently: "A bigger thing."

The four looked at each other, and they all saw the hesitation on each other’s faces, and Barry looked complicated, saying, “Dean, otherwise, let’s close it. It’s good to live a normal life like this. Work is harder, but it can be mixed with food and clothing."

Du Dian glanced at him, his expression unchanged, and said to the other three: "How about you?"

Kruhn said worriedly: "Although we want to help you, but now you are wanted, once exposed, it will be over."

Button didn’t speak, and kept staring at Du Dean. After Kruen finished speaking, he suddenly said: "Dean, no matter what you want to do, I will follow you. I said, I gave you my life, even if you gave me your life. If you let me go to rob, I will go too!"

Du Dian glanced at him with a smile on his face.

"Me too." Joseph gritted his teeth. "I said that at the beginning, I don't want to have the days when I have eaten and eaten. Although I find work in the factory, what do others think of us? Contempt, Disgusted, I've had enough!"

Kruhn and Barry froze, silently.

Barton saw the two of them silently and said angrily: "Dean is now wanted, just when he is helpless, are you just watching Dean wanted?"

Kruen gritted his teeth slightly and said, "I don't want to, but with the few of us, what can I do? Could it also make Dean's wanted order undoable?"

Patton suffocated and said angrily: "Even if it doesn't work, now Dean needs help, but you backed off, how can Dean take you out of the orphanage?"

The two looked ugly and speechless.

Du Dian glanced at them and said, "You don't have any psychological burden. I said, I brought you out in return for the kindness you took care of me. If you want to live a peaceful life, you can leave now, but I hope you better not expose things here."

Hearing Du Dean’s words, the two lowered their heads, and Kluen clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

Barry suddenly crawled on the ground and said, "Dean, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I can't do it, I already have someone I like, I just want to live a quiet life, I hope you can forgive me, I promise, absolutely I won't tell the story here."

Du Di'an looked the same and nodded slightly: "OK, I wish you happiness, go."

Barry raised his hands to wipe his tears, dared not go to see Patton and others, and turned away without looking back.

Dudi looked quietly at the back of his leaving, a coldness flashed in his eyes.
