Before the arrival of the Man of the Black Thorns, the secret painting was gone???

Something suddenly came to my mind, and I immediately asked Fat Bear and Ivan, "Have you ever seen my Uncle Dao?" He was the one who informed me that something had happened to the castle! ”

If it is said that before the Black Thorn Man came here, the secret painting was taken away by others, then this person can't think of a second one except Uncle Dao.

The fat bear waved his hand: "At that time, we didn't have time to dodge the bullets, so how could we take care of anything else...... But if Uncle Dao had already arrived at the castle, why didn't he show up? ”

I frowned, "Maybe he's watching out for someone." ”

Wei Yin was still worried about Daria's safety, and she asked, "Shall we go and save Daria first?" ”

Ivan said: "You can't act rashly, the man of the Black Thorns is still in the castle." ”

Zheng Tian was taken aback when he heard this: "What's the matter, those guys are still there?" But we didn't see any of them all the way here! ”

Fat Bear replied: "It's true, those turtle grandsons are in ambush, and they won't withdraw if they don't get the secret painting." ”

Moreover, if Virgo was really a traitor, then he probably called not a helper of the Brotherhood, but more enemies.

It seems that this is more tricky.

The Man of the Black Thorns must be waiting for something when he hides in the shadows and doesn't show up, is it Daria? No, Daria is in the study right now, and they can control her at any time, but they still haven't shown up......

They must be waiting for someone more important......

At this moment, Ivan, who was leaning against the corner, suddenly beckoned to us, and we walked over, and there was a gap in the wall where we could see the situation outside: at this time, a group of men dressed in black and carrying submachine guns had come to the garden and were about to break into the castle.

"Probably the guy Virgo just called." I guessed.

"So there are more enemies?" Zheng Tian said with a sad face.

"Daria is also more dangerous." Wei Yin worried.

Ivan stood up and said, "I have a way to avoid Virgo and get the young lady out." ”

We looked at him and waited for the following. Ivan spread out the drawings and continued: "This is the construction of the castle, there is a fireplace in the study, and on the other side of this fireplace is a secret passage, which is directly connected to our storeroom and the outside of the castle. When the time came, one of us would shoot at the door of the study and lure Virgo out, while the rest of us would go through the secret passage of the fireplace to pick up Miss. ”

We nodded in agreement, but who was going to shoot and lure the enemy? It's a dangerous errand, after all.

Ivan volunteered that he knew the structure of the castle well, and that there was a possibility of escaping after shooting the enemy, so he went to complete the mission.

He also said that if he dies at the hands of the enemy, he hopes that we can rescue Miss Daria, and then avenge the Brotherhood.

What a loyal butler, I immediately stood in awe of the tall and thin Kazan uncle in front of me.

Once the plan was settled, we split up, and Ivan opened the secret room in the storeroom, telling us to keep going down, and at the fork in the road, turn left and there was the fireplace in the study on the second floor. He himself loaded his pistol and walked out of the storage room.

This ancient castle is hundreds of years old, and the secret passages inside also exude an ancient atmosphere, and the inside is very narrow, with cobwebs everywhere, and you can still hear the squeak of rats from time to time.

After five minutes of climbing, we could finally see the fireplace that Ivan was talking about. But because it hadn't been opened for a long time, the small secret door at the back of the fireplace was already covered with a thick black liquid, and the surface was covered with thick dust.

I glanced at my watch, and the time I had made with Ivan was approaching. Together, we pushed the small door open, and just as the light of the study penetrated through the secret passage, a gunshot came to my ears, and it seemed that Ivan had acted.

We continued to push the secret door open.

At this time, Daria was sitting on a chair by the fireplace, staring at the door with a sad expression, while Virgo and Yang Wen, who heard the gunshots, had already rushed out of the study.

I struggled to peek out of the fireplace and reached out and tugged at Daria's skirt.

Daria looked down and was amazed to see me coming out of the fireplace. Without further ado, I pulled her straight into the secret passage in the fireplace.

Daria, who had been pulled into the secret passage, knew exactly what was going on, and Wei Yin patiently recounted with her the conversation we had just had in the storage room on the third floor.

After listening to this, she was even more surprised, she had only suspected that her uncle Virgo was an internal ghost, but she didn't expect that the captain of the guard, Sergei, was also an internal ghost, and great despair climbed up her cheeks.

We climbed to the fork in the road, turned right and went down, and we could already see the light coming in from outside the castle.

But continuing down is a 90-degree straight slope, very steep and slippery, and if you jump rashly, you are likely to fall to your death.

At this time, the fat bear suddenly took out a long rope, and he tied one end of the rope to a short post in the secret passage, and threw the other end down, just the length of the land.

"What Lao Yi gave me before, he is a real god, everything is settled." The fat bear said after putting the rope down.

I don't know what Ivan's condition is at the moment, but I hope he can be safe.

A few of us climbed down the rope, landed and walked a short distance, and finally came to the outside of the castle, where a few rays of winter sun shone on our faces.

Daria said it was close to the back door of the castle, and we only had to walk a few steps west to see it.

We skirted the castle and headed west to the back door, only to find a man standing at the back door. He had his back to us, and his figure looked familiar.

The man noticed that we were coming, and turned slowly.

That's when we found out that this man was actually the butler Ivan, and thankfully, he escaped!

"Lao Yi, you have a big life, tell me where we will retreat next?" The fat bear went up to get close to Ivan, but to our surprise, he actually pulled out a gun and pointed it at the fat bear.

The fat bear was also stunned, and said inexplicably: "Lao Yi, what's the matter with you?" Don't be kidding at this time! ”

Ivan didn't speak, he looked at Daria without a trace of expression on his face. Then he snapped his fingers, and something happened that we didn't expect even more:

A dozen or so Black Thorn Killers with guns suddenly rushed up from behind us and pointed their guns at a few of us.

Daria talked to Ivan with a complicated expression, they all spoke Russian, which I didn't understand, but from the expression, Daria's face was full of surprise and disappointment.

Zheng Tian arched me and asked in a low voice: "Chengzi, what do you think is the situation now......

I sighed, "Can't you see this?" This butler Ivan is the real ghost, and he has been deceiving us all along. ”
