Volume 1 Night Castle Chapter 113 Escape 6
After dealing with the spy in the clan, Bach immediately sent Baruch to investigate the news again, since the news given by the spy must be fake. But Baruch had just gone out and came back not long after.
"Patriarch, the door is all guarded by the Lesen Blood, and they won't let me out!"
Bach stood up and walked to the window, lifted the curtains, and sure enough, there was a group of Lessenlu bloodlines guarding outside. Putting down the curtain, he said in a deep voice: "You wait first, I'll go." β
As soon as Bach stepped out of the door of the banquet room, he was stopped by two strong Lesen Bloodline guards. One of the guards said sharply, "Please stay in the banquet room before Bach departs tomorrow." β
"I want to see Miss Clores, please pass her a message." Bach said patiently, in a good voice.
"I'm sorryβ"
"Is this happening? How did you stop the Bach chief? Suddenly, Rose walked over and interrupted the guard. The guard, knowing Rose, replied, "Lord Loris has commanded us to protect the Bach patriarchs. β
"That being the case, Patriarch Bach should not live up to the wishes of our adults, and stay in the banquet room with peace of mind!" Rose smiled and was about to leave.
Bach immediately held him back: "Master Ross, don't go, could you please send a message to Miss Clores?" β
He didn't care about any secret investigation now, he had to get the accurate information in his hands first, and catch Jue and Han Qingluo, he couldn't let the sacrifices run away, otherwise everything they had worked so hard for so long would come to naught.
Ross did not refuse: "Then what does Patriarch Bach want me to preach?" β
"The news I got at the port during the day is fake, please send someone to investigate again, and don't miss the opportunity to catch the traitor and the sacrifice!"
Rose nodded: "Patriarch Bach, don't worry, I will convey it to the boss immediately, you can go back to the room and wait with peace of mind!" β
Seeing Rose's back disappear from sight, Bach turned back into the room and smashed through the brick wall with a fist: "The slut dares to detain us, I actually underestimated her." β
Baruch looked at the angry patriarch and said with relief: "Since the word has been spread, why don't we wait with peace of mind, the blood clan of the Night Castle will not care about this matter." β
"What stupid are you talking about?" Bach scolded, "Our main target is the sacrifice, and if we miss this opportunity to reclaim the sacrifice first, we will be completely out of touch with the Night Castle guys." β
Baruch knew that he had said the wrong thing, and he didn't dare to talk again, so he kept his mouth shut.
"It seems that they are also starting to guard against us, and when this is over, we must get out as soon as possible, understand?" Bach lowered his eyes and said solemnly.
He had an ominous premonition that Loris would bite them like a mad dog when it was over, and he had to take precautions.
Inside the main hall.
Bach's words about Ross caught Glores' attention, and she sent him directly to find out the news.
"This Xitai clan, keep a hand everywhere, and don't take the initiative to contain them, maybe they would have gotten the truth to grab the sacrifices, and then there will really be nothing to do with us." Jack secretly rejoiced.
Tal on the side immediately echoed: "Yes, this not only made them empty of gloves for the white wolf, but also took the opportunity to bruise our Lessenlu and make the demon party fall apart, what a big game of chess!" β
"Thanks to Lord for reminding me in time, it would have been bad!" In addition to being frightened, Loris still had doubts in her heart, "How can this Xitai clan even have false news about their own people, can't it be another conspiracy of theirs?" β
shook his head: "Since he is in such a hurry to let Rose come to pass the word, it means that they are also forced to rely on us, no matter what is going on inside them, they cannot be let go until the news is confirmed." β
"Good!" Glories nodded, completely following's words.
In terms of scheming, Loris understands that she can't play Bach and must have a blood clan like by her side to advise, so she does not reject and them, but adopts their advice.
At this time, it is better to unite herself against the Xitai clan alone, anyway, her position, Haiman and they will not be able to shake it for a while, so why not use them first. When her plan is completed, she will have no worries.
It wasn't until late in the evening that Ross, who had been searching for news, finally brought back the exact news: a tobacco ship bound for England would depart tomorrow evening at about nine o'clock.
Ross went to meet Bach with the news. Looking at the removed guards, Bach was still angry, but he had to thank him quietly: "It's really protected by Laoye Castle." β
"The boss has asked Patriarch Bach to go to the main hall to discuss related matters, please!" Ross did not smile and ignored Bach's cynicism.
So in the main hall, two leaders with their own thoughts played with each other. Finally finalized the zero hour departure to the port to prepare an ambush in advance, this time Loris learned a good way, leaving the Lesen Bloodline of the Night Castle, and the other three groups of Lesen Rings joined the pursuit team.
At night, the forest is silent, and occasionally sleepless birds chirp two or three times. On the full moon of the summer night, the hazy and cold glow spills into the interior of the forest through the cracks in the leaves, forming pillars of light of different sizes and thicknesses, giving a glimmer of light to the forest in the darkness.
The blood clan team that set out to hunt down Jue and Han Qingluo marched silently through the forest, like an army of ghosts. Both Bloods tacitly agreed not to say a word, and the atmosphere was serious, as if there would be a fierce battle tomorrow night......
ββ
Port.
Elsewhere, cargo ships crowd the waterways, and the port is bustling with activity, even when it's time to sleep late at night. Everywhere there were workers unloading up and down, all of them buried themselves in their work without saying a word. Like a robot, repeating the action of receiving and handing.
The shouts of the overseer foreman were so abrupt in the wide harbor that pierced the silence it was supposed to have. As the foreman, Hal is urging the workers to speed up at the moment.
"Toot ......"
A dull trumpet sounded through the sky. A large cargo ship is sailing into the empty waterway of the port. Hal looked up, recognized it, and leaned over happily.
Once the ship was docked and planks were erected on the shore, Hal eagerly climbed to the deck and went to the cabin to find the captain. As soon as the captain saw the old acquaintance, he immediately greeted him warmly.
"Mr. Hal misses me!" The captain laughed and walked off the boat with him.
Walking ashore, Hal bluntly stuffed him with a heavy bag of coins. The captain immediately tacitly stuffed it into his arms and said in a low voice: "Do you want me to smuggle people this time?" β
Hal nodded, holding out two fingers. The captain frowned: "Don't be a wanted criminal and exile, I was almost found last time, don't hurt me." β
"Don't worry, it's definitely not this time, it's a big customer, maybe you have provoked some enemies, so I'm in a hurry to leave." Hal patted him on the chest, smiling all over his face.
The captain grinned understandingly: "Thank you Mr. Hal for taking care of me!" β
"The captain is gracious!" Hal laughed alongside him, and took the captain to the tavern near the harbor as usual, while the rest of the crew skillfully disembarked and went off for fun.
In the tavern.
Hal and the captain were drinking. By the way, they chatted about how long it would take for the tobacco goods to arrive, and there were not many people in the tavern late at night, and there were a few workers who changed shifts sporadically, plus the two of them, no more than ten in total.
"Jingle ......"
The bell hung on the door as a reminder made a crack, and the tavern door was pushed open, and a figure walked through it. His arrival only caught a moment's notice, and then he returned to normal.
When Hal saw the coming, he immediately said to the captain, "Look at the back, the big customer is here!" β
The captain turned his head to look out the door, only to see a dark-eyed man with shoulder-length black hair walking in, exuding an aristocratic and elegant temperament, and was a proper patron in Howl's mouth.
"Are you the captain?" The man asked in a cold and haughty tone.
"Yes."
Jue looked at the dark-skinned man: "I want to ask you to arrange a person on the boat in advance, money is not a problem." As he spoke, he took out a cloth bag from his wide cloak and placed it on the table, making a thick noise.
The captain and Hal looked at each other and looked at Jue in unison. Talking to the happy man, holding the heavy bag of money in his hand, the captain immediately took it into his arms and said with a smile: "No problem." β
"Right now." Jue continued.
"Yes!"
The so-called money can make ghosts grind, and the captain and Hal immediately followed Jue, leaving the tavern and going to an inn.
After Norton led the pursuers, Jue took Lucy and Han Qingluo in a carriage and stayed at a hotel in the port, and Lucy served as a liaison to connect them with Hal.
Driven by money, Hal fulfills all of Jue's requirements, and personally introduces the captain to establish a solid relationship to ensure that everything is safe.
On the road.
Jue leaned towards Hal: "Mr. Hal, the one who asked you for news......"
Hal understood what Jue was talking about, and smiled all over his face: "Don't worry, Mr. Jue, I told that guy the fake ship news according to your wishes, don't worry, they will definitely be empty when the time comes." β
"Hmm." Jue nodded, took out a few gold coins from his arms, and Hal immediately spread out his palms and took them.
"However, how did Mr. Jue get into trouble with the enemy, the one who came to inquire about the news didn't look like a good person at first glance. There is a big scar on his face, and it looks weird and scary! Hal looked at the gold coin, his eyes lit up, and he still thought about it in pieces.
When he looked up again, Jue had already gone forward.
Arrived at the hotel room.
Jue looked at the captain and pointed at Han Qingluo: "Arrange for this woman to stay in the most secret and safe room, and no one is allowed to approach." β
The captain said without thinking: "No problem, I promise that it is the safest and most private room, and I will also ask someone to help you guard it and not let anyone approach!" β
Jue nodded: "When I arrive in the UK, I will pay you the balance again." β
When the captain heard this, he was even more sure that this big patron was taking care of him, and nodded again and again: "Don't worry, sir, I, Zack, can be trusted!" β
"Will the boat leave on time today?" Jue asked again.
"As long as the goods are loaded and unloaded, they can leave early."
Jue didn't ask anymore, said let's go, picked up Han Qingluo on the bed, Zach and Hal led the way, Lucy followed aside, and covered her with a scarf.
After leaving the hotel, head straight to the cargo ship at the port.
