Chapter Seventy-Seven: Anna. Balzac
'Is this okay?'
'Didn't you all see him with your own eyes when the regimental commander knocked him down from the sky just now?' Guaranteed to be foolproof.'
'Okay, that's up to you.'
"Okay, everyone disperses, I'll count to three and do it, one..."
Hey, in general, when encountering this situation, shouldn't you warn in advance and let the people in the house take the initiative to come out and surrender? These guys are really straightforward, what do they do now? Like they say, 'Red Thunder' won't hurt me, but what about this girl? She is a real flesh and blood body, this is going to be a death on the spot, at this time I obviously feel that she is trembling in her arms, it should be afraid, looking at the white neck, I suddenly feel a soft heart. No, I can't say anything about this innocent girl who died with me, and I can't help but put down the shovel in my hand when I think of this...
'Wait a minute!' Finally the door to the hut opened, and the vampires outside were nervous, but they soon let their guard down.
'You... Are you Anna?' A vampire asked.
'It's me, Mistress Bridge...,' replied the blonde tremblingly.
'Bridge, who's this girl?' The other vampires on the side asked.
'Oh, her name is Anna, and she's the gardener Herman's assistant.' The vampire named Bridge, who seemed to be familiar with the affairs of the garden, turned around and continued to interrogate Anna.
'Anyway, Anna, why are you hiding there?'
'I'm sorry Lord Bridge, a stranger just now broke in, I saw that he was suspicious and wanted to call for help, but he actually planned to kidnap me, and I hid here in a panic, and then he was going to break in, and I was so frightened that I held the door to prevent him from entering, and when I heard you coming, he ran away...' Anna's voice trembled a little, and the whole person looked frightened.
'Then why are you only coming out now that we've been here for so long?'
'I'm sorry, I was so frightened, my mind was a mess, I didn't know what to do...' Anna said as she looked like a frightened little animal.
"I see..." Bridget nodded, as if believing Anna's words.
'Do you know where that stranger is going?'
'I don't know, but the footsteps seem to be heading in the direction of the tower.'
"Then he shouldn't have gone far, Anna, you quickly find a safe place to hide, and the others will chase after me!" With that, Bridge waved at his companions, and the vampires chased after the tower.
When they were all gone, Anna let out a sigh of relief, turned her head and whispered to me in the room, 'They're gone, come out quickly.'
I cautiously came to the door, poked my head out to look, and saw that there was indeed no ambush outside, so I boldly walked out.
'Thank you.' I nodded at Anna.
'Now is not the time to say that, come with me first.' Anna took my hand and ran quickly to the side of the stairs, and at this moment I had only choice but to trust her for the time being.
'Well, you'll be safe for the time being...' Anna led me around the castle until I came to a poorly furnished room, and when I entered the room, she quickly locked the door.
'This is...' I asked, surveying my room.
'This is my room, usually no outsiders come, you can sit casually.' As she spoke, Anna walked straight to the table and picked up the kettle and poured herself and me a glass of water.
'Drink.' Anna handed me the cup and smiled, as if an older sister was taking care of her mischievous brother.
'Oh... Thanks.' I hesitated for a moment, then I reached out and took the cup, the water was actually warm, which was undoubtedly a blessing for me after tossing in the ice and snow for most of the day.
'By the way, I haven't asked you what your name is?' After a brief pause, Anna asked.
'Kane, Kane. Roger.'
'My name is Anna, Anna. Balzac.' Anna sat on the edge of the bed with a glass of water in her hands, and the light came in through the window next to her, and the whole picture looked surprisingly warm.
'By the way, thank you for what you just did.' In fact, until this moment, I couldn't believe that everything that was born before was true.
'Wait, what do you want to do?' I was about to get out of the hut when I was grabbed by Anna.
'Go out and surrender, this matter has nothing to do with you, you can stay here in peace.' At that time, I tried to break Anna's hand as I spoke, but I didn't expect the other party to let go.
'Joke, what's the use of you going out?' I'll take care of everything!' Anna's attitude was extremely resolute, and she pulled me aside without saying a word, and then opened the door and walked out, which was the scene that led the pursuers away just now.
'But I still don't understand why you're helping me?' At this moment in Annade's room, I couldn't help but spit out my own questions.
'Because I don't think you're a bad person.' Anna took a sip of water and said lightly.
'Why do you think that?' I wondered.
'The real bad guy doesn't sacrifice himself for fear of causing trouble to others.'
'But wouldn't it be dangerous for you to do that?'
'As long as you don't get discovered?' Unlike the previous pity in front of a group of vampires, Anna at this time seemed extremely calm and calm, giving people a very trustworthy feeling.
'By the way, why did those guys arrest you?' Suddenly, Anna asked.
'This...' I was a little tempted to say something.
'Why, you still don't trust me?' Anna laughed.
'No, I just don't want to get you involved.'
But now I'm involved, huh? Forget it, if you really don't want to say that I'm not going to be strong.' Anna was very generous, but this made me even more uneasy, and considering the current situation, I finally decided to confide in Anna the truth.
"So you're the 'Horcrux' that Master Dacula has been looking for, no wonder Lord Bridge was so nervous just now.'
'What, you know about Horcruxes?' Anna's reaction undoubtedly surprised me a little, after all, the fact that the demon king was sealed in her body seemed a bit ridiculous no matter how you looked at it.
Well, it's not a secret in Bezukhov, and it's often discussed, and it's hard for me to know about it. But I originally thought that the so-called 'Demon King Horcrux' should be a terrifying-looking person, but I didn't expect it to look like this...' Anna said as she looked at me with the eyes of a rare species...
'Sorry to disappoint you.' I laughed wryly at myself.
'Poof, you're so funny.' Anna smiled, in fact, I have seen many girls' laughter so far, some noble, some playful, and some full of charm, but only Anna's smile makes me feel a heartfelt warmth, as if she is my family, as long as you stay with her, you will naturally feel cordial, and even reassuring...
'By the way, Anna is supposed to be a human, why do you work for those vampires?'
Hearing this, Anna's expression changed suddenly, and finally she couldn't help but sigh and said, "It's a long story..."
