Chapter 13: The Red Skull
"Ma'am, let's go now?" After successfully serving Audrey's mother, Zhang Xuan couldn't wait to leave as soon as possible with the two mothers and daughters, after all, the Netherlands was now under Nazi rule, and it was possible to encounter danger at any time.
"Mr. Alex, you can call me Ella." Audrey's mother was a little surprised when she heard this, "Are you in such a hurry?" ”
Zhang Xuan looked at Audrey's mother, Mrs. Ella, with a worried face, took a few steps closer, and said in a low voice: "Mrs. Ella, I overheard a message that Hitler is going to implement a policy of ethnic cleansing, and it is very dangerous for us to stay here. ”
Ella's face changed suddenly, she once again thought of her tragically dead relatives, and unconsciously nodded: "Go, let's go now!" ”
"Mom, are we really going to get out of here?" Audrey Hepburn was still an eleven-year-old child at this time, and her face was full of sadness when she heard that she was leaving her familiar home, and she was a little reluctant.
Zhang Xuan looked at the sorrow in Audrey's brown eyes, and a trace of pity welled up in his heart for no reason, and said: "Of course, Audrey, you are an angel who has landed in the mortal world, and you don't belong here!" ”
The excited Zhang Xuan didn't notice that he actually came out with Audrey's name, you must know that Audrey's name was Edda (EDDA) at this time, but fortunately, the restless Audrey's mother and daughter didn't pay attention.
In a few moments, Ella led Audrey, dressed in simple clothes, out of the house, carrying a huge package in her right hand, which made Ella's exposed arms slightly blue.
Looking at the cloth bag that was almost half the height of Mrs. Ella, Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly: "Mrs. Ella, you don't have to bring so many things!" ”
Lady Ella was slightly stunned, looked down at the package in her hand, and hesitated, these things were the only things they had.
"Lady Ella, you have money and nothing." Zhang Xuan pointed to the pocket of Mrs. Ella's clothes, and the $10,000 he had just given her was stored there, "Besides, with so many things, it's not easy for us to go on the road!" ”
"I don't think I'll take anything with me, just go on the road, light." Seeing that Mrs. Ella was still hesitating, Zhang Xuan reached out and took the package in her hand, put it aside, and pulled the two mothers and daughters along the way they came.
Ella looked at the package that was thrown aside by Zhang Xuan with some reluctance, and finally didn't say a word, holding Audrey's hand and following behind Zhang Xuan step by step.
Just a few steps, Zhang Xuan suddenly stretched out his hand to stop the mother and daughter behind him, his eyes were slightly cold, and sidecar motorcycles appeared on the road in the distance, and three or four German ** people wearing Nazi military uniforms could be faintly seen on the car, and the posture seemed to be not good.
Zhang Xuan felt a trace of uneasiness for no reason, and pulled the two mothers and daughters into the forest next to the road immediately, hiding their traces through the lush trees.
"What's wrong?" Ella also saw the Nazis in the distance, but she didn't care. In fact, not only her, but also Audrey was not worried, but just looked at Zhang Xuan with a puzzled expression.
Zhang Xuan shook his head with a serious face: "I don't feel right, we are still hearted." After that, Zhang Xuan looked up and looked down, leading the mother and daughter through the forest.
In fact, Zhang Xuan's intuition was very accurate, and these sudden Nazis came for him. The unbridled use of telekinesis finally caught the attention of the Nazi special services.
"Report sir, no target found!" A young sergeant ran all the way to an armored car, stood on his legs and shouted, "Suspect that the target has fled!" ”
With a click, the door of the armored car was pushed open from the inside, and a man with a red skull stepped out of it, two eyeballs in the sunken skull eye sockets, revealing a chilling madness.
If Zhang Xuan sees this person, he will immediately recognize it, isn't this the red skull in the movie "Captain America"!
"Then what are you waiting for, chase me, you must find him!" The red skull had no expression on his muscular face, and his open nostrils were panting, and he was clearly very angry.
The young sergeant didn't dare to look at the red skull, so he answered, quickly turned around and ran away. Moments later, dozens of Nazis scattered and chased after each other.
"What the hell is going on?" Zhang Xuan was very depressed, took Audrey's mother and daughter all the way to avoid the Nazis, and thought about taking the train to leave Anheng, but he didn't expect that now the entire Anheng seemed to be occupied by the Nazis.
Until now, Zhang Xuan didn't know that he had attracted the attention of the Red Skull, and the Red Skull had even gone out in person.
At this time, Ella and Audrey also found that something was wrong, originally there were not many Nazis in Anheng, but at this moment, the entire Anheng was full of Nazis, even the most secluded places were indispensable.
"What now?" Looking at the Nazis searching the streets, Ella's face was full of worry.
Zhang Xuan's brows furrowed tightly, he intuitively felt that An Heng's sudden appearance of these Nazis should be related to him, so it would be a little difficult for him to take Audrey's mother and daughter away.
"Where can I send a telegram?" After pondering for a moment, Zhang Xuan felt that he had to find Howard for this matter.
"Newspaper, Anheng Newspaper has a telegraph, I saw it once." Audrey raised her hand and said in a voice. For Zhang Xuan, Audrey is still a little afraid and does not dare to approach.
Zhang Xuan can only smile bitterly at this, he must be close to the goddess when he has the opportunity in the future, as for now, he still has to find a way to return to the United States first!
Under the leadership of Audrey, a group of three people walked through the streets and alleys, constantly avoiding the Nazis, and it took half a day to finally come to a courtyard not far from the Anheng Conservatory of Music, which is the location of the Anheng Newspaper. Because of the Nazis, Anheng Newspaper was forced to close its doors a long time ago, and it was also deserted, and there was no one for a long time.
"The telegraph is right in there." Audrey pointed to a room in the southwest corner of the courtyard, because of the continuous hurry, fine beads of sweat had oozed from her forehead, and her face was slightly red.
"You wait here, I'll send a telegram." Zhang Xuan instructed, walked into the room with the telegraph in the southwest corner, and tried it, the telegraph could still work.
In the previous life, telephones and computers had become popular, and the old antiques like the telegraph had long been eliminated, and Zhang Xuan had never even seen it. Since coming to this era, Zhang Xuan has also had to learn to use this old antique.
After filming a telegram a little rusty, Zhang Xuan did not leave immediately, he knew that Howard would call back soon. Sure enough, as Zhang Xuan expected, just a few minutes later, the telegram rang again.
Howard sent over a road map describing how Zhang Xuan could return to England safely. After reading it, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but show a smile on his face, and secretly thought to himself in his heart that Howard was still reliable.
According to Howard, Germany and France are now at loggerheads, and it is impossible to return to England through France. As for the direct ship back to England from Holland, it was also delusional, and the English Channel was full of German warships and aircraft. So, the best route is through Germany, through Denmark, into Norway, and then from Norway to take a boat around the North Sea back to England.
Looking at the road map passed by Howard, Zhang Xuan suddenly thought of a question, remembering that in "Captain America", the Red Skull found the Rubik's Cube in a church in Norway. "Shall I go and find it?" Thinking of the Cosmic Rubik's Cube, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but have an impulse in his heart, the Cosmic Rubik's Cube was a good thing.
But when Zhang Xuan turned his head and saw Audrey Hepburn standing in the courtyard outside the window and shivering in the autumn wind, Zhang Xuan immediately extinguished the thoughts in his heart. He came to Europe this time for only one purpose, to bring Audrey Hepburn to the United States, and ignore the rest!
