Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Wisdom of Rhys

"Alright! You win! Groot smiled brightly, and he raised his hands, a pair of white hands peeking out of his wide sleeves. Then he slapped a few more times.

Just as a few clappings were still echoing through the cavern, Duroc heard the faint sound of footsteps coming from the tunnel from which he came.

The sound of staggered footsteps was constantly coming from the dark tunnel opening, and Duroc judged that there should be more than five people. Five people? Duroc was frightened by this number, if they had followed him in the first place, he didn't even notice it at all, until he went so deep? If that's the case! Who is the Holy Spirit of the other party, and he is still so hidden after taking Ris with them!

But soon Duroc began to realize that maybe they were in the cave in front of them, waiting until they came in. And this is the most likely.

Duroc's mind spun so fast that the thought was only a momentary one.

The footsteps grew louder and louder, and there were people Duroc wanted to see in the darkness. Almost all of Duroc's attention was now in the dark tunnel.

A delicate face was gradually exposed to the light of the chamber, the familiar black hair, slightly curled over the shoulders, a pale yellow white shirt, and a long cyan skirt.

"Pandan!" Duroc looked at Zhifei Xianglan who walked in, and couldn't help but take a step forward. But as soon as one of Duroc's feet hit the ground, he stopped again. Because that Groot had reached out his right hand and stopped at Duroc's chest.

Then, Duroc saw another person standing behind Zhifei Xianglan, who was controlling Zhifei Xianglan. has blue hair, slightly shorter than Zhifei Xianglan, and it happens to be covered by Xianglan. But Duroc could still tell who that person was, but Duroc never thought about why her.

Suo Lan Qingyin, it is Suo Lan Qingyin. When she walked in, she looked at Duroc without any disguise. She seemed to be a different person, she was still very weak and haggard yesterday. And now he has a ruddy complexion, so full of vitality.

"Locke!" Zhifei Xianglan raised her head and looked at Duroc in front of her. But as if she wouldn't face Duroc, she tilted her head to the ground.

Duroc didn't know how to comfort Xianglan in front of him, but silently swore in his heart that he would save her!

Then three more people emerged from the dark tunnel, or rather one and two Groot. That person was none other than Rhys, but what Duroc didn't expect was that Rhys was controlled by two Groot at the same time, and his body was tied with ropes one after another.

"Rhy!"

In the bright chamber, Rhy's face was barely bloody.

Seeing Rhys tied up in front of him, Duroc couldn't hold back the anger in his heart anymore, and roared at Groot beside him, "What's the matter? What did you do to Rees? ”

"Nothing!" Groot slowly lowered his arm in front of Duroc, then crouched down, picked up the long knife that Duroc had thrown down, and said, "I just invited him to a good cup of coffee!" ”

"You were poisoned?" Duroc grew so angry that he couldn't control his trembling body.

That Groot didn't seem to care about Duroc's mood at this time, but smiled and handed the long knife in his hand to Duroc: "It's just to let him be quiet for a while!" ”

"Rhy! Rhys! Duroc tentatively called out to Rhys, who didn't seem to have any sense at this time.

Then, I saw Rhys raise his head slightly, squinting his eyes. It seemed like he had to struggle to see Duroc. "Locke! Is that you? ”

Hearing Reese's words, Duroc's entire body seemed to be half cold: "What's the matter?" ”

That Groot moved his body towards Duroc, and patted Duroc on the shoulder with his right hand and said, "It's only temporary, it's not a big deal!" ”

"Should I trust you?" Duroc pushed Groot's hand away and said, "Didn't you say I could take my friend intact?" ”

"You don't have a choice!"

This sentence was not said by Groot, who was beside Duroc, but by Suo Lan Qingyin, who was controlling Zhifei Xianglan at the moment.

"Lock Lan Qingyin!" Duroc yelled, "Are you crazy? Your father is on this, don't you want to save him? It's time for you to see what happened to your people! ”

"Nothing!" Suo Lan Qingyin chuckled and said, "Because I'm not just the so-called Suo Lan Qingyin. ”

"She's not! Locke! Rhys said in a heavy, weak voice.

"Impossible!" Duroc said categorically: "I saved her, impossible!" ”

"Because she wasn't Suo Lan Qingyin from the beginning, she pretended to be Suo Lan Qingyin from the beginning!" Rhys gasped several times as he spoke

"In the beginning? When? ”

"I don't know exactly when, but it must have been before you saved her, which means that you saved an imposter in the first place!" Rhys said indignantly, but still powerless.

Duroc looked at Rhys in front of him, and even so, he kept his head clear.

"I'm curious, why do you know this isn't Suolan?" The Groot asked with interest:

"Because you have too many flaws!"

"Flaws? Have we been planning for a long time? ”

"How long?"

"Ever since the real Suo Lan Qingyin disappeared!"

"I don't know what your purpose is, but I already know that this girl is not really here to ask for help!"

"If you know it, why didn't you expose it earlier?"

"Because I'm .........," Rhys paused, glancing at Duroc. Because I'm not sure! I want more proof. ”

"But how do you know she's not really asking for help?" The Groot moved to the edge of the stone platform and leaned against it, showing great interest.

"As a secret dragon-slaying organization in the border city, our address is already very hidden. And this girl who locked the blue found our captain Locke accurately in the "don't know" situation, and all this at least shows that she already knows something about us! ”

"I see! I was negligent. So when did you know for sure? Isn't it until I show up? ”

"Of course not!" Rhys raised his head high, looked at Groot in front of him and said, "I know from the time I chased a person who didn't leave at all, that the purpose of this girl who locked the blue is not simple!" ”

"Is there any flaw?"

"Of course! When I heard the screams of the Blue Girl and rushed to the Blue Girl's room, I was wondering. Obviously, it was Miss Xianglan who was arrested, why was Miss Suolan, who had been in a coma, calling for help? And as I entered the room, I took a closer look, and I noticed the screen! ”

"Screens? Did you ...... then? Groot suddenly straightened up and unconsciously stretched out his hand to Rhys.

"I didn't realize at the time that you had taken the pandan girl hostage and hid behind the screen!" Rhys interrupted him and said, "So I chased all the way down the route you had prepared for me in advance, and by the time I found out what was wrong, you had already taken Miss Pandan with me." ”

"Duroc was already there when I got back, and the screen had moved a full half step from the first time I entered the room. There should only be four people who can touch the screen: of course I can't, and neither can Duroc! …”

"Why can't he?" That Groot immediately interrupted Rhys, because in his opinion his plan should not be so flawed!

"Because the captain entered the room and saw that I was not in the room, he should have gone to Miss Suolan's room as soon as possible, and when he found out that there was only Miss Suo Lan alone, he should have only one idea to ask Miss Suo Lan about the specific situation, but the screen was more than two meters away from the bed. When I got back to the room, Duroc hadn't actually been in for long, which meant he didn't have time to touch the screen. ”

"You've done a good job!" Groot smiled, unabashedly. "What's next?" ”

"And the girl who locked the blue, and the person who held the girl pandan hostage!"

"How are you sure it's mine?"

"I don't need to be sure if a fourth person did it, because whoever you come across is a pointer. What are you trying to hide! ”

"You're smart!" Groot was still smiling: "But you didn't choose to expose the lock blue, but I brought you here, can you tell me what your plan is?" ”

"I'm just here to see what you're up to!"

"That's all?"

"Not really!" At this point, Rees paused. The whole chamber became silent.

"Could it be? Do you still want to save this Zhifei Xianglan? After saying that, he seemed to think that he had told a joke, and he laughed out loud.

"Of course! You guessed it! ”

As soon as the words fell, the two Groot who were holding Rhys hostage fell to the ground at the same time, and he seemed to have completely gotten rid of the groggy appearance just now.
