Chapter 87: Promise Me One Condition

Half an hour later. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Penitential prison, in a relatively clean interrogation room.

William and Gleason sat opposite each other.

William sat quietly in his chair, looking at the old oil lamp on the dusty table, the corner of his eyes wandering, as if he was really thinking about something.

William didn't speak, looking pensive, and Gleason didn't ask William what he wanted to talk about, and the atmosphere fell into a stalemate for a while.

As time passed, the glow of the burning fire in the oil lamp flickered, as if it would be extinguished at any moment, plunging the entire interrogation room into darkness.

Gradually, Warden Gleason felt that he couldn't sit still.

Not to mention an ordinary aristocratic young master, even a heinous murderer, sitting in front of him, he shouldn't be so calm.

It's like ...... Their identities have been reversed.

William is the warden of this confessional prison, and he Gleason is the prisoner.

As soon as the ridiculous idea popped into his mind, Warden Gleason shook his head and threw it out of his mind.

He opened his mouth, and before he could speak, William's voice was the first to pass, "How can this confessional prison still exist?"

When Warden Gleason heard this, he was stunned.

"I remember that this prison, it was more than a hundred years since it was last renovated, right? His Majesty Charles VIII seems to have given an order at that time to abandon this prison and convert it into a training school. ”

William looked around, glanced at his surroundings, and continued: "In the time since I entered the prison, I have observed that there are very few people here, and the prisoners are very few, which is simply pitiful. ”

After a pause, William tapped his fingers on the table and continued, "Can you explain why?"

Warden Gleason was about to explain, but before he could say anything, he immediately shut up.

He finally came to his senses.

He's the warden of this prison!

Only then did he have the initiative to ask!

As for William's question...... Why did he have to answer?

"Do you know who I am? I'm the warden of this prison! And you're a felon!" said Gleeson, the warden, in no uncertain terms.

He already felt like he was regaining his lost momentum.

But William's reaction was beyond his expectations, and he didn't mean to be scared at all.

"I know you're the warden. ”

William nodded, and said in a flat tone, "But, do you know who I am?"

"Who do I care who you are?" said Warden Gleason angrily.

He slammed his fist on the table, shaking the tattered lampshade outside the oil lamp to the ground and shattering: "Also, Lao Tzu's attitude towards you is very unhappy! If you have something to say, let it go!"

"I am the eldest son of the Lester family. My family, in cooperation with Lei Ao, the third young master of the Monro family, is well-known in the entire Kuwait province, and has even been praised by His Majesty, and has even appeared at birthday banquets. ”

William said lightly, "For a period of time, the perfume produced by my family's perfume workshop has always been a luxury item in the imperial capital's elite circle, and it is in short supply. ”

"I have a grudge against Schika, and he made it clear that he wanted to frame me this time. But he was stupid, and he left out one of the deadliest pieces of information about me, and one that he would definitely regret. ”

Warden Gleason asked, "What information?"

"I'm still the teacher personally recognized by Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess of the Holy Spirit Empire. William said slowly.

When Warden Gleason heard this, he burst out laughing, leaning back and forth, "You're laughing at me! You're good at telling jokes, I haven't laughed so much in a long time." ”

He laughed for a while, stretched out his hand and wiped the tears from the smile on his face, "If you are the teacher admitted by Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess, then my Gleason is still Your Majesty, he is old..."

"What do you want to say, are you Your Majesty?" asked William with a smile.

Warden Gleeson's face darkened, and he looked at William with a cold gaze and kept silent.

William said with a straight face: "I have already sent someone to deliver the news to Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess." Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess still respects me as a teacher, and within three days, she should send someone to pick me up. ”

Gleason was a little scared in his heart.

If William is telling the truth...... Young Master Sika of the Page family, he doesn't know if it will be miserable. But he, a small warden, will definitely die a miserable death in the face of the anger of Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess.

Gleason's face was cloudy, and gradually, a flattering smile appeared on his face, "Misunderstanding, everything is a misunderstanding!" I didn't mean to disbelieve it before, I just wanted to ...... I just want to verify it a little. ”

"Alright, now the misunderstanding is solved!"

Warden Gleason turned his face like a book and shouted, "Big Black, come in!"

With footsteps and the sound of the door opening, a tall, thin man walked in. He had a fierce expression on his dark face, and he raised his fist to give William a beating.

Seeing this scene, Warden Gleeson panicked and shouted: "What are you doing?

The big black man retracted his fist and looked dazed.

Look at his stupid face!

Warden Gleason was not lightly angry, and kicked over, "I'm asking you to untie Young Master William!

Big Kuroko finally figured it out.

He hurriedly apologized to William, and served tea and water again.

Subsequently, on the personal orders of Warden Gleason, William was transferred to another cell.

The cell was very spacious, with two windows open on some of the dilapidated walls, allowing the moonlight to shine in from the outside.

The air here is also much better, and there is no musty smell from before.

A clean wooden bed, a brand new set of bedding, and a few adventure books written by a certain bard, are the best-selling books today.

William sat on the hard wooden bed, flipping through a book in his hand, and just when his stomach was a little hungry, the big black man walked in with a supper.

He smiled flatteringly: "This is a little bit of caution from our prison master, it is all fresh beef that was just bought outside..."

William suddenly understood.

He was not afraid of poisoning the beef, so he pinched two slices of beef and put them in his mouth, so he ate boldly and confidently, and asked while eating, "Is there any water?"

Da Kuroko's eyes watched William's action of eating beef without blinking, and his saliva was direct. As soon as William asked, he couldn't stop talking, "Yes, there is water." ”

So saying, he hurried out, and after a while, he fetched a black kettle.

William took the kettle and was about to drink saliva to quench his thirst, but when he smelled the kettle, his brow immediately furrowed.

"That's how the water in our prison well goes. Although it has a strange taste, it is absolutely clean and will not have diarrhea after drinking. Big Kuroko explained.

Hearing this, William nodded slowly, but put down the kettle in his hand.

He fumbled in his arms for a while, and finally found a bulging money bag, threw it directly to the big black man, and said, "Please go outside again, buy some delicious food and come back, and buy some barbecue and beer by the way." ”

Da Kuroko took the money bag and nodded stunned.

He opened the money bag and looked inside, his breathing suddenly became short, and his liver was beating non-stop.

In the small money bag, all of them were printed with the portrait of Charlemagne, and gold coins were shining gold!

He rummaged carefully for a long time, but he didn't find a single silver and copper coin in it.

"It's... This... That's too much!" said the big black man dumbfounded.

William said disapprerovingly: "Not much. For the rest of the money, I'll treat you to a good meal. ”

When the big black man heard this, his heart was overjoyed.

With a happy look on his face, he took the money bag in his hand, stumbled outside, and forgot to close the iron door of William's cell.

An hour later, thanks to William, in the prison of confession, all the managers of the jailer class, had a great meal together.

It is said that eating people is short-handed, and taking people is soft.

These people are no exception.

Someone quietly brought a pillow to William.

Someone sent a collector's edition of a book that was not suitable for children.

Most outrageously, a short thin man actually quietly opened William's cell, saying that he had never eaten such delicious food and wanted to help him escape from prison.

There is more than one person who wants to help William escape from prison.

Late that night, just as William was lying on a plank bed with several layers of bedding, dazed and about to fall asleep, Sumera appeared.

Sumera's original intention was to take William away.

But William decisively refused.

If he really escaped from prison, the trumped-up charge that Xika pressed on his head would be completely confirmed. When the time comes, it will be very difficult to clear the suspicions.

As a last resort, as long as there is any way back, William will not choose to do so.

He comforted Sumera with kind words, signaled that he didn't have to worry about himself, and then asked Sumera to send a message home, and told Kane, Crean and others.

"How's that fat man doing?" asked William suddenly.

"I've heard from Crean that he went to General Carlo's to save you and made a big fuss, but then he was confined to his house and couldn't go out. Sumera said truthfully.

And that's to be expected. The charges against Sica against me are too big to have anything to do with the assassination. I'm afraid no one can save me now but her. ”

"Who is she in your mouth?"

"Your Royal Highness the Fourth Princess. ”

"Fourth princess, when did you meet? No, you have to explain this matter to me clearly!"

"What are you talking about? It's so late, go back to bed, staying up late is not good for your health!"

"Do you say it, or don't you say it?"

"You promise me one condition. William said, leaning into Sumera's ear and whispering a few words.

"Get out!" said Sumera, blushing.
