Chapter Fifty-Eight: Acting
Jessica woke up faintly, she felt her hands and feet trapped, her mouth gagged, and she couldn't move on the ground. It was dim around, and by the faint light, it was barely clear that it was in a carriage.
"Jessica."
The voice of Mrs. Theodore was heard.
Jessica turned sideways and saw her mother sitting next to the carriage.
"Mother, where is this?"
"I don't know, we've been kidnapped."
Jessica suddenly remembered what had happened before she fell unconscious, and she was a little frightened.
"Jessica, calm down, we'll be rescued."
Mrs. Theodore had seen the world and was very calm on such occasions, and she knew that she could not show weakness, or her daughter would break down, and she had to be strong.
Mother and daughter snuggled together.
"Come down when you wake up."
An abrupt voice came, and the mother and daughter were startled.
The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a masked man appeared in front of the two men.
The two barely stood up and stepped out of the carriage.
It was a small camp, and the campfire was burning, crackling, and blazing. There is also a green-skinned kidnapper around the campfire.
The masked kidnappers stepped forward and untied the ropes from their hands.
"Be honest, go to the toilet after eating, and then go back to the car."
Mrs. Theodore moved her wrist and pulled Jessica to the grass to solve the internal emergency. The masked kidnappers followed.
Although the two of them are shy, they can only settle in this situation. Fortunately, the masked kidnapper was a bit gentlemanly and turned away from the two of them, but the sound of running water was heard by a strange man, which still made people a little shy.
Mrs. Theodore was calm, and Jessica blushed.
After solving the domestic demand, he returned to the camp.
The masked kidnappers delivered two bowls of broth.
Mrs. Theodore took it, but instead of drinking, she asked:
"Who are you?"
"We are the ones who take the money to do things."
"Send us back, you can ask for as much as you want."
"In our business, credibility is very important."
Mrs. Theodore did not give up, and tried to use superb social skills to make a routine, and kept tempting again and again, until the masked kidnapper 'accidentally' revealed that Theodore's enemies had revenge, and then she kept silent.
The two picked up the broth and ate it.
If you want to escape, you need to have strength.
Jessica was calm throughout, her panic was hidden inside, and she held her mother's hand tightly. Take advantage of the solution of internal emergencies, touch the white and tender little face black, look dirty, and prevent the robbers from having bad intentions.
After eating, sit by the campfire.
Mrs. Theodore looked left and right, trying to determine her current position.
"Hah, don't bother. This is the border between Mondolo and Dono, more than a hundred kilometers from the city of Rondo. ”
The masked robber replied, not in the slightest fear that the location would be revealed.
"It's so far that your people can't catch up. Tomorrow after crossing the border, you can leave Dono. ”
Mrs. Theodore was silent.
She realized the seriousness of the problem.
After all, Duke Osika is only a nobleman of Dono, and leaving the Kingdom of Dono, which means that the fate of the two is sad, and the possibility of being rescued is almost 0.
"Do you want to escape? You can give it a try. ”
The masked kidnapper leaned against the trunk of the tree and said lazily. After speaking, he ignored the two of them.
The green-skinned class didn't speak the whole time, just stared at the two of them.
Jessica was a little frightened and hid in Mrs. Theodore's arms.
The green-skinned kidnapper suddenly smiled weirdly and asked the masked kidnapper:
"Boss, can I have a good time?"
Lady Theodore and Jessica were frightened and huddled together.
The masked kidnapper scolded:
"Can you have a bit of a work ethic? We are professional ticket kidnappers, to ensure the safety and health of the hostages, what should you do if you play dead? ”
The green-skinned kidnapper scratched his head and giggled.
The mother and daughter breathed a sigh of relief.
The masked kidnapper suddenly said:
"But ......"
The mother and daughter instantly became nervous.
"If they run away, they can teach them a lesson."
The green-skinned kidnapper's eyes lit up, and he nodded hehehe, staring at the mother and daughter, as if to say, 'You guys run away'.
Where do the mother and daughter dare to run?
Dead.
Jessica lay in a daze in the carriage, tears silently streaming down her eyes. She worries about her fate and doesn't know what she's going to face next. If you are captured by your enemies, you may be reduced to a plaything and a tool for venting.
She had heard of some disgusting games in the aristocracy, and she was the daughter of a fallen duke, and she was afraid that she was the best plaything.
How she wished there was a prince charming, stepping on colorful auspicious clouds to save her.
It's a pity that those are just fantasies.
Until the next day, the two were gagged and their hands and feet were restrained.
The carriage starts on the road.
The carriage had been on its way for a day, and at dusk it was encamped near a waterhole.
The two were put down again.
Lady Theodore identified the surrounding vegetation, which was already clearly different from the vegetation around the city of Rondo, with smaller foliage and much cooler temperatures.
The mother and daughter sat in front of the campfire in a daze.
Da Da Da ......
The faint sound of horses' hooves was heard.
Jessica pricked up her ears, and Mrs. Theodore looked up sharply.
The two kidnappers tensed.
After a while, a commercial carriage passed by the side of the road.
Seeing the fire, the commercial carriage approached.
Several people got out of the car and walked over.
Leading the way was a handsome young man dressed in aristocratic clothing, followed by several mercenaries in armor.
The masked kidnapper got up and asked:
"Who are you? What do you want to do? ”
"Hi ~ Adventurer, hello. I'm a merchant from the Migaka Chamber of Commerce, and I'm going to camp on this side of the path, and when I saw a fire here, I came over to say hello. How about everyone getting together? ”
"We're here first, please leave."
The two kidnappers refused the demands of the noble youth.
The aristocratic youth's gaze swept over Jessica and Lady Theodore.
Mrs. Theodore was just about to call for help.
The aristocratic young man exclaimed first:
"Huh? Miss Jessica? Mrs. Theodore?! ”
