On Sunday, the sky was still very overcast.

William changed into a modest suit and combed all his hair back, revealing a full forehead, making him look handsome and energetic. When everything was ready, William went downstairs, and as soon as he reached the second floor, he saw Sherlock standing in his doorway in a brown dressing gown, looking at him with silver-gray eyes.

"You're going now."

"Yes, the time on the invitation is nine o'clock, and I have to get there by nine."

As soon as William returned to tell Sherlock what Willi Wonka had told him.

For one, he can absolutely trust Sherlock's IQ; Second, he felt that there must be something wrong with this Willy Wonka, as if he had come to him on purpose; Thirdly, he didn't know what would happen, although he believed that with his own ability, no one could defeat him, but, "there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the people", he always has to keep an extra hand.

"Take it with you."

Sherlock reached out and handed William a silver-gray watch.

What's to be done?

William blinked in confusion.

"Monitors and positioning systems."

Sherlock said, shoving the mechanical watch into William's hand, "I had McCroft send it last night, you know, he has a lot of this kind of stuff. ”

"Oh, thank you, I didn't even think of that."

William thanked him as he took the mechanical watch with him, "By the way, if possible, thank you to Mr. McCroft for me." ”

"I don't think he needs to."

Sherlock shrugged, looking a little disgusted, his silver-gray eyes looked at William, and said, "Watson asked me to speak for him, pay attention to safety, he went back to the hospital overnight because of the emergency, I really don't know how he can be so serious about that kind of boring work." ”

"That's because Watson likes it," William laughed, "just like Sherlock likes to solve crimes, it's because he likes it." ”

Sherlock raised an eyebrow and didn't say anything more.

William looked at the time, it was already past eight o'clock, he hurriedly said goodbye to Sherlock, hailed a taxi, and rushed to the chocolate factory. Perhaps it was the first time since the unpleasant incident fifteen years ago that the chocolate factory had hosted such an event, so many media rushed over, not only from the UK, but also from foreign countries, and for a while, the traffic jam on that road was particularly serious.

But fortunately, William's taxi magically arrived outside the chocolate factory in time in the midst of this crowd of people, at this time there were still three minutes before the scheduled nine o'clock, the five selected children and their parents were standing at the door excitedly waiting for the door to open, William passed through the crowd, all arrived in front of the iron gate, through the gap between the iron pillars, looking inside.

The whole chocolate factory occupies a huge area, like a set of double rings, in the middle is a huge chocolate factory, and the chocolate factory is surrounded by a high wall, only through the iron gate in front of you, you can enter the chocolate factory, and only through the only door, you can enter the interior of the chocolate factory.

At this time, the whole chocolate factory is very quiet!

William ignored the noisy crowd around him, raised his hand, glanced at his watch, it was already 8:59, and there was still one point missing!

"Tick", "Tick".

Time passed little by little, William's eyes did not move in the slightest, and when the time pointed to nine o'clock, the door of the chocolate factory opened automatically.

Suddenly, the whole crowd was boiling!

The five chosen children and their parents, plus William, the witness, a total of eleven people stepped into this quiet land, they walked forward step by step, and when they left the iron gate, the door that had just been opened closed automatically, as if someone was watching their every move, and locked them in the chocolate factory.

William quietly glanced at the entire chocolate factory, and found that it was very different from ordinary factories, and this chocolate factory was extremely tight.

"You're Mr. William Stoker! I'm Andrew Salter and I've had the pleasure of working with Mr. Stoke Sr. ”

Suddenly, one of the Andrew Salter standing next to him came over, looked at William with a look of surprise, obviously recognized him, and he said this, with a sigh on his face, "I am very sorry for the matter of old Mr. Stoker, he is a philanthropic man. ”

"Thank you."

William bowed his head gently.

"Is Mr. Stocker the witness this time?"

Andrew Salter saw that William did not have children around him and William Stoker's age, he obviously understood William's identity at this time, "It turns out that you are friends with Mr. Will Wonka!" ”

"I'm sorry, we're not," said William, seeing Andrew Salter smile even brighter, "but by accident, Mr. Willy Wonka said that he wanted to find someone unknown to everyone to be a witness, so I came." ”

"Ah, I see!"

Andriy Salter was slightly stunned, and in less than a second, a smile regained on his face, "I didn't expect to be able to visit with Mr. William Stoker, it's really a pleasure!" ”

Seeing this, William only bowed his forehead with a reserved head.

The four adults on the side heard the content of the conversation between the two of them, and they all looked over in unison, except for Joseph, who looked around excitedly, the other three all expressed more or less friendship to William.

In this regard, William did not say much, but just forehead one by one.

"Well, Mr. William Stoker, this is my business card," Andrew Salter said, handing out a business card, "if you need anything, you can come to me at any time, and of course, if you can, I heard that your pomegranate ······"

Before Andrew Salter could finish his sentence, he heard a burst of music playing, "Willy Wonka, Willy Wonka, amazing chocolate shop." Willy Wonka, Willy Wonka, everyone cheered······"

The song is simple, cheerful, catchy, and a little childlike, and it is indeed a very good song, and William turned his head sideways, looking at Willi Wonka, who seemed to have suddenly appeared next to him, only to see that he was wearing huge round sunglasses, and clapped his hands with excitement, which made his originally pale face also stain a hint of red.

"You don't look good."

William turned to the side and whispered in Willi Wonka's ear, and Willwill Wonka clapped his hands suddenly, he turned his face around, looked at William indifferently for a second, and suddenly began to laugh.

"It's a beautiful song, isn't it!"

Willy Wonka stopped clapping his hands excitedly, he replied lightly, walked past William, walked in front of everyone, smiled and took out a card, and after he finished reading the card, he led everyone into the factory.

As soon as he entered the factory, he felt the heat rushing to his face, William looked around, and always felt that there were magic fluctuations around him, as if the entire factory was in a huge magic array, maybe it was sealed inside, so William didn't find it when he was outside, but as soon as he came in, he felt a huge magic fluctuation coming to his face, in addition, there was a special wood element active jumping in it.

With such huge magic fluctuations and so many wood elements, William became more and more cautious about this place.

However, until the end of the day, when Charlie was the only one left, nothing happened, and it felt like Willy Wonka really just wanted to invite him here to visit the chocolate factory and be a witness.

It's so weird!

"Mr. William Stoker, I have something I would like to talk to you about."

When Charlie Bakett and Joseph left with a smile, Willy Wonka finally turned his gaze to William, his pale face and dark eyes looked extraordinarily serious.

"Of course."

William replied.

He's been waiting for a long time.

Seeing this, Willy Wonka smiled, and led William down the corridor to an empty room.

In this room, the whole room was snow-white, and even the only piece of furniture, the two sofas, were snow-white, and the white was simply dazzling to the eyes.

"Welcome to my lounge."

Willy Wonka said, on the couch, and William saw this, and sat down across from him.

"I want to know why you asked me to come."

William said bluntly.

"I thought you'd want a cup of afternoon tea."

Willy Wonka said, blinking his eyes, he had measured something, knocked on the wall next to him, and he didn't know what he pressed, and two cups of steaming black tea were held out from the separate ground by a square table.

"Darjeeling black tea, a very good choice."

William glanced at the red tea soup, and didn't reach out to take it, just looked at the decoration on the teacup, blue and white on a white background, Chinese blue and white porcelain, "It goes well with this set of blue and white porcelain." ”

Willy Wonka's eyes looked at the black tea mountain for a moment, smiled, he picked up his cup of black tea and took a sip, his pale face eased a little.

"I've been cursed, I think you already know that."

"Yes," William said, turning his gaze to Willy Wonka's body, his eyes fixed on his pale cheeks, "it seems that this curse is very difficult to understand, otherwise you would not have come to me." ”

"That's true," Willy Wonka did not hide his purpose, "someone wanted to see you, but he couldn't come to see you, so he told me that if I brought you there, he would help me lift the curse." ”

"You don't look like you believe the man," said William, looking at Willis Wonka's still very flat expression, "but you are still here, and I have only one possibility, and that is that you are also very curious about it, right?" ”

"Not bad."

Willy Wonka smiled, "I think as long as you're a pirate, you'll be interested. ”

"Pirates?"

William was stunned, obviously not knowing how this matter had anything to do with pirates.

"It seems that you don't know exactly why this happened," said Willy Wonka, smiling, "didn't you know that your ancestors once had a map of the Pirate King's treasure?" It is said that this treasure is worth □□, and any pirate with the slightest ambition wants to keep it for themselves, but they only know that this matter is related to the Stoke family, but no one knows where it is. ”

"That is, why did they just ask me to hand over something instead of killing me?"

William suddenly realized, and then he looked at Willy Wonka with a puzzled expression and said, "But they didn't move again?" ”

"At first, everyone acted separately, but later, this matter was known to the great pirate 'One-Eye', you must know that he is the most ferocious pirate who has conquered almost the entire Atlantic, he wants to monopolize this treasure, where do other pirates dare to rob it? So in some ways, you should thank him. ”

"However, you will be very sad to face him in the future, you must know that he is not only a very brutal man, but he is also said to be able to control the 'mood' of the sea, so every time he sails, it is always sunny and windy. ”

"But even so, I don't know where the treasure map you are talking about, the Stoke family has no family history in this regard," William thought about his family's history, and said, "The only thing that has to do with it is about the eighteenth century, when the decree legalizing piracy was just enacted, and my ancestor at that time was a duke, but for some reason, he was demoted by the empress and became a viscount, and from that time on, the Stoke family began to decline." ”

"I'm afraid maybe it's because of that treasure map."

"You know, the reason why the pirates are bothering you now is not only because you are the heir of the Stoke family, but also because a few days ago, a pirate found a piece of parchment that recorded that the Stoke family had obtained a treasure map of the pirates, but it is worth doubting that although the Stoke family got the treasure map, they never looked for it, but just hid it." ”

"But there is no trace of this matter in the Stoke family."

William couldn't help but shake his head and said, "If I say I don't know, will the pirates let me go?" ”

"I don't think it's possible."

Willy Wonka shrugged, looked at William with dark eyes, and said with a smile, "You know, pirates are a very patient bunch, like me. ”

"You?"

William looked at Willis Wonka and said in amazement, "You're also a pirate?" ”

"Am I not like that?"

Willy Wonka smiled, his pale face flushed, "But I should be famous among pirates, if you've heard of it, Jack Sparrow, captain of the Black Pearl. ”
