All Chapters_Chapter 258 The Art of Countermeasures
It was not until about eight o'clock that night that Sabah left Esmeralda's house. Esmeralda took the hunchbacked Quasimodo to send the master of the night out in person, and after watching Sabah get in the car and leave, the two of them returned to the house.
Although Sabah left, now the house is full of bodyguards he left behind, these people are basically Sabah's executors, and it seems that the intruders in the morning have taken him and Esmeralda seriously. Ah Cuo observed from the windowsill that when these bodyguards came back from patrolling to hand over shifts, there were corresponding incisions that were not taken advantage of. And at different times they speak differently, and it seems that at different times, these people's incisions will also change.
It was about ten o'clock in the evening, and a black Bentley stopped in front of Esmeralda's room. Sabah and Emperor Miller got out of the car, and saw that their boss had come back without notice, and the bodyguards at the door didn't know what was going on, and their attention shifted to Sabah and Miller.
A high-ranking executor standing at the door hesitated for a moment, but then came over to Sabah and said, "Great Sabah, we have not been notified of your return. Although it is you, it is according to the instructions you gave when you left. Even if you are yourself, you have to answer the password to enter......"
Sabah nodded, then said, "Of course, Mr. Mendoza." But please hurry, I have important business to see Lady Esmeralda. “
Speaking of which, the high-level executor paused for a moment and glanced at the time on his watch. Then he coughed and cleared his throat, and then said to him: "This is the sun at dusk - please answer the password behind it......"
Sabah glanced at the Adeptus called Mendoza, and then said, "We take it as the dawn, Mr. Mendoza, is that okay?" ”
All the passwords were designed by Sabah himself, and Mendoza was relieved, dodged the position of the gate, and then turned back and knocked on the door for Sabah. After a long time, the door was opened, and the hunchback named Quasimodo poked his head out of it, and when he saw Sabah and Miller standing at the door, he was stunned for a moment, and then quickly opened the door, and while letting Sabah and Emperor Miller into the room, he said with a smile: "Great Mr. Sabah, I didn't expect you to come back so late." I thought you'd let me know before you came......"
When Sabah came in, he said to the hunchbacked butler with a serious face, "There is no time, Mr. Quasimodo, please call Ms. Esmeralda." I have something very important to say to her, please hurry, we don't really have much time. ”
A few minutes later, Esmeralda, dressed in a dressing gown, appeared on the stairs. Not knowing what happened, she didn't come down. Just stood on the stairs and glanced at Sabah suspiciously, and said: "Great Sabah, what happened?" It's so late that you came here in person......"
"Are you really Esmeralda?" Sabah glanced at the woman in front of him suspiciously, and then continued: "Forgive me for my rashness, but you also know that the Adept who broke in this morning can imitate anyone's appearance. You can even spy on what is going on in the mind of the person being imitated, if you can't prove that you are Lady Esmeralda herself. I'm going to treat you like an intruder in the morning......" As he spoke, Sabah had already drawn his narrow-bladed dagger from his cane.
After seeing the dagger, the expression on Esmeralda's face began to become a little panicked. After taking a deep breath, he said: "Wait a minute, great Sabah, you said that the supernatural can imitate anyone's appearance and can also peek into the hearts of others, so how can you let me prove it?" ”
"Abilities don't lie," Sabah continued, holding the short sword in his hand, "If you want to prove that you're Esmeralda, then please show Lady Esmeralda's ability......"
"Great Sabah, it seems that you are really right......" Esmeralda's face suddenly became sly, and after smiling strangely at Sabah, he continued: "That person really came for my ability. ”
Sabah frowned, looked at the woman on the stairs and said, "What are you talking about?" Are you talking to me? ”
"Lady Esmeralda is talking to me......" A familiar voice sounded, and then the door at the end of the first floor was opened, and an old man in a black robe sat inside. It was Sabah, who had left two hours earlier, and the Night Master was putting the teacup he had just finished on the coffee table beside him. Then he raised his head and said to the same self opposite, "This time I brought one more person, Mr. Miller, your twin brother has arrived." ”
As soon as he finished saying this, the door behind 'Sabah' was suddenly opened from the outside. Then, another black emperor, Miller, blocked the door, looked at the other Sabah and himself inside the door, sneered, and continued: "Can you still run out this time?" ”
"It seems that the two people who left just now were faked, right?" 'Sabah' smiled bitterly and continued: "And the Bentley, the Night Master's car is completely unguarded. I should have thought of it as a trap just now, but unfortunately, if I hadn't been in too much of a hurry, I could have seen this. ”
"You're anxious, but what about Mr. Seaman? Are you also in a hurry? Sabah, who was in the opposite room, slowly stood up, looked at the 'Miller' who had not spoken all this time, and continued: "I knew the news when you came out of the Punic Prison yesterday. I came to see Lady Esmeralda today because of this incident, I thought it would be a while before you appeared, but I didn't expect you to be in such a hurry. ”
The black man next to 'Sabah' was still silent, and Miller behind him finally stopped. The empire was unfolded again, and at the moment when 'Sabah' and 'Emperor Miller' were shrouded in the empire, the two people changed their appearance at the same time, and 'Sabah' became an old white man in his sixties, who was the old Heman who had just escaped from the Punic prison yesterday. And 'Emperor Miller' became an Italian man in his fifties. The man's gaze was a little glazed, and his clothes were shabby, looking at the beggar from somewhere......
Still fooled! To say that this beggar would be the intruder I saw in the morning is probably not even a child would believe it. The faces of Sabah and Miller changed at the same time, and the owner of the night shouted upstairs, "Esmeralda! Hurry back to the room and don't trust anyone......"
At the same time, Miller had already crossed the beggar and went directly to the side of old He-Man. When the others arrived, a translucent yellow figure also appeared from the corner. The figure had a long sword in his hand, and it was already aimed at old He-Man's throat. At this time, Miller stared at old He-Man and said, "What about that person?" Where is he...... "It seems that if old He-Man had said something wrong, the sword would have been stabbed in his throat.
At this time, Sabah also came over, and when he reached the old He-Man's side, he waved his hand and asked the black man to remove the figure. Then he looked at old He-Man and said, "Mr. He-Man, we've known each other for thirty years, right?" We're friends, and I don't want you to do something you'll regret when you wake up......"
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a chill at the position of his neck, and then he saw that the beggar who had been glazed eyes had an extra short sword in his hand, and the blade was already across his neck. Although his eyes were still glazed, there was a hint of coolness in his words: "Great Sabah, I don't want to do anything that I will regret later, now please invite Esmeralda down, I will not embarrass you, nor will I embarrass him." ”
After being silent for a moment, Sabah turned his head slightly to look at the beggar and said, "You are very similar to a Chinese friend of mine......"
