Chapter 172: The Big Bang
"Oh", An An said lightly: "I heard about it, but what's so wonderful about this?" It's not uncommon for a horse to get out of control, it's just that the person sitting on the horse's back is Prince Charlie, so I'll go and get busy first. After saying that, An An was about to walk away, and Michael continued: "If it's just Prince Charlie's horse that gets out of control, it's really not a wonderful story, but I heard that Prince Charlie was saved by a woman." ”
"A woman? So what? ”
"The woman claimed to have known Prince Charlie before, and was even pregnant with His Royal Highness the Prince's child." Michael said with a gossipy face, but An An was obviously not interested, she said a little impatiently: "Dr. Michael, there are still a lot of things to do in the clinic, and I am not interested in Prince Charlie's past affairs, if this is what you want to talk to me about, then I'm sorry I still have a job." ”
"If that woman was rescued from the sea by Count Soros and claimed to have come to Paradise Island to find her relative Han Dong, wouldn't you still be interested?"
"Han Dong's relatives?" As soon as Michael mentioned my name, An An immediately asked, "How can it be Han Dong's relative?" He doesn't have any relatives, no, I mean he can't have relatives outside of Paradise Island. ”
Michael shrugged, "I don't know about this, anyway, she insisted that she was here to find Han Dong." Now she insists that she is Prince Charlie's former woman, but Prince Charlie does not admit it, and is furious that she is slandering, and if His Royal Highness the Prince really investigates it, I am afraid that Han Dong will be implicated. ”
On Jackson's ship, Prince Charles was lying in a wide soft chair, his whole body was aching faintly, Duke Jackson and Earl Soros were separated, Governor James, and Sandrow, the commander of the island convoy, were also waiting not far away.
Prince Charlie was furious at the thought of Sister Hua's appearance, and he said to Jackson: "As soon as that madwoman wakes up, she will immediately interrogate me severely, and I must find out her plot to slander Prince Ben!" ”
Jackson nodded, he thought for a while and said, "But that crazy woman's nonsense is not normal to look at her brain, and Your Highness doesn't need to care too much." ”
"How can you not care? There are a lot of Imperial reporters with me this time, and if they go back and write the crazy woman's words, what face will I have in the future? Am I not going to be the laughing stock of the whole empire? What is the reputation of the royal family? ”
"Yes, His Royal Highness the prince should not be angry yet, you will need to recuperate for a while if you fall off your horse, and I will leave the matter of this crazy woman to me, and I promise that not a word will be transmitted back to the empire."
After leaving Jackson's ship, Count Soros immediately returned to his ship, and Chu Yi was already waiting in the room.
Soros poured a glass of red wine and shook it gently, his face was reflected in the glass, and the expression on his face changed.
Chu Yi on the side stood quietly, even her breathing became cautious, she knew that whenever Soros held his favorite red wine glass without saying a word, his heart must be full of magnificent thoughts.
After about half an hour or so, Soros finally raised his wine glass and drank it all, the frowning eyebrows on his face also stretched, he put down the wine glass and asked Chu Yi, "What do you think of today's events?" ”
"Today's events can be divided into two parts, one is that His Royal Highness the Prince's horse suddenly went out of control, and the other is that the crazy woman slandered Prince Charlie, I think there are a lot of strange things in these two parts."
"Oh, tell me what you think."
"His Royal Highness the Prince's horse was specially brought by him from the empire, and it is a horse that has been professionally trained by the imperial royal horse trainer, and His Royal Highness the prince often rides it out to race, so whether it is a horse to a person, or a person to a horse, it should be very familiar, and the sudden loss of control is really incomprehensible."
Soros nodded, but he didn't say anything directly, he asked Chu Yi to continue.
"The crazy woman who slandered Prince Charlie is also very strange, she was rescued by us from the sea, and she originally came to Paradise Island to find Han Dong, how could she suddenly have a relationship with Prince Charlie again? Although I had heard about Prince Charles's past from time to time when I was in the empire, I didn't believe that he would have anything to do with such an ordinary woman thousands of miles away. ”
"Well, what you're saying is a bit puzzling, but what I want to know more than that crazy woman is why Prince Charlie's horse suddenly went out of control, if it was really just an accident, but if it wasn't an accident, then it would be terrible."
"Are you saying that Prince Charles' horse suddenly went out of control, and that someone was behind it?"
"It's just that there is this possibility, and it is impossible for a horse trained by the royal horse trainer to get out of control for no reason!"
"And the sudden disappearance of Han Dong is also very unbelievable, according to the news I have inquired from many sources in the past two days, they suddenly disappeared from the sea, and after disappearing, Governor James sent many people to search in the nearby seas, but they found nothing, as if the world had evaporated."
"Well, so I'm coming to Paradise Island this time to come to the right place, there are too many secrets here, Chu Yi, I hope you are ready, I want you to stay on Paradise Island for a while."
"You're letting me stay here?" Chu Yi frowned and asked, "Then who will take care of you?" And in what capacity am I staying here? ”
"With you by my side, I can naturally save a lot of worry, but I can't keep you by my side all the time, I will eventually leave this world before you, you have to start learning to face everything alone, and at the same time I need to unlock the hidden secrets of Paradise Island, but it's not so easy, only you can reassure me." As for the question of identity, I am planning to open a shipping company on Paradise Island, with seven or eight ships, and you will be the head of this shipping company. ”
Because Prince Charlie's horse accidentally lost control, the rest of the first Island Games came to an abrupt halt, and no one knew when the competition would resume, and everything was calm.
When the paradise island enters the middle of the night, all the hustle and bustle of the day is hidden in the boundless gentle night, and all the restlessness and restlessness are dissipated with the swaying of the sea breeze without a trace. When the people fell asleep, the whole island was left with all kinds of unnamed night birds chirping, and suddenly an explosion came from the depths of the island, and the scattered birds flew up one after another, and the gentle night was stirred to pieces.
The sudden explosion did not reach the commercial area by the sea, but everyone in the Boulder Camp could hear it clearly, although it may be a little far away and they could not feel the shock wave of the explosion, but just by listening to the sound, they could imagine the intensity of the explosion.
Sister Hongmei and the others walked out of the wooden house one after another, looking around, they couldn't see anything except the boundless black curtain, and even the bright moon overhead was covered by a large cloud floating overhead.
After the explosion, there was no other movement, and after standing in the night for a while, I could even wonder if I was dreaming.
Su Yuliu grabbed Lin Ruyi's arm and asked Sister Hongmei, "What exploded just now?" ”
Sister Hongmei shook her head: "I can't tell, logically speaking, nothing on Paradise Island can make such a loud noise, it's too strange." ”
"It's weird." Lin Ruyi said: "But such a loud explosion will definitely leave a large trace, tomorrow I will go around the island to see what exploded." ”
"Don't you?" Su Yuliu grabbed Lin Ruyi's arm and said, "Han Dong and they are not here now, let's not take that risk." ”
