Chapter 61: The Power of Stratagem
"Searching the entrance to the secret passage?"
Hearing the right minister's return, Captain John was stunned at first, and then his heart was overjoyed.
"Is this the idea of Lieutenant Colonel Song, it really deserves to be Colonel Song!"
"You fully cooperate with Lieutenant Colonel Ichimatsu, and you must find the entrance to the secret passage!"
Captain John is now more and more fond of a loose book.
It helped him a lot.
Captain John didn't know what to do with that passage.
If you find someone to deal with it, the project is too big, and it will inevitably arouse some people's suspicions.
But if you don't deal with it and keep it there, you always feel a little unsure, and if someone accidentally finds out one day, it's even more troublesome.
And now, this approach of Ichimatsu is exactly what he wants.
It's entirely possible to dispose of this channel at the right time.
As for Dalasha Lucas inside, just hide him somewhere else.
The entire palace is his territory, and it is not easy to hide oneself.
Without his orders, who would dare to search everywhere!
Receiving orders from Captain John, the Right Chancellor immediately went to give the search order.
At the same time, Captain John had entered the secret passage through the entrance under the bed.
Another exit to the secret passage is in an old abandoned mansion.
Captain John arrived, pushed the closed door open a little gap, then turned back into the secret passage, and brought Dalasha Lucas back to the palace to hide.
The reason for this, of course, is to allow the soldiers to discover this entrance more quickly.
Fortunately, Captain John was not disappointed, and the next evening, the news that the entrance to the secret passage had been found reached the palace.
After receiving orders from Captain John, the others guarded the entrance to the secret passage, and T. Penn and the Right Chancellor entered the secret passage.
Of course, Ichimatsu is not allowed to enter the secret passage.
There is a high probability that this secret passage leads to the palace, even if he is the hero who saved the Kingdom of Illicia, it is impossible for T. Penn and others to let him in.
When T. Penn and the Right Chancellor crawled out of the other end of the secret passage and saw the scene in front of them, their faces turned pale with fright.
The other part of the secret passage turned out to be under the bed of His Majesty's bed!
"Your Majesty the King atons for your sins! It's a dereliction of duty on our part! ”
The two knelt guiltily in front of Captain John, who came to inquire.
This secret passage has been dug into His Majesty's bedchamber!
It's too dangerous!
If it had been discovered any later, and it would have been bedtime at night, wouldn't His Majesty have been assassinated!
Captain John deliberately showed a look of apprehension, and then waved his hand: "I don't blame you for this matter, hurry up and dispose of this secret passage." ”
Captain John was glad that the secret passage had finally been taken care of, but he didn't know that everything was Solomon's plan.
And Rosinandi and Berumel also took advantage of the emptiness of the palace defense at this time to sneak in.
With the palace structure and defense map drawn by Luomon, coupled with the ability of the Silent Fruit and the Nine-Tailed Fox Fruit, coupled with the response of the current commander-in-chief of the guards outside the palace, the two of them sneaked in without danger.
"This is the study." Rosinandi looked at the armament structure diagram in his hand and said.
"It shouldn't be wrong, hurry up and hide, the patrol soldiers will be here soon!" Berumel urged.
This was also part of Solomon's plan.
Now that he has seized Lucas's memories, he should inherit Lucas's memories and habits as well! ’
I heard my father tell me about Lucas, who was a diligent and loving king, and who spent most often in his study, where he took care of his business, apart from his bedchamber. ’
This is the basis of Solomon.
Although he is not 100% sure, there is a high probability that if the bedroom is temporarily unusable, he will choose to rest temporarily in the study.
So, Solomon asked Rosinandi and Berumel to hide in the room next to the study.
He certainly wasn't letting the two assassinate Captain John.
Captain John's strength is not great, but that is relative to his notoriety.
No matter what, he also has the strength of a 100 million bounty.
With the strength of the two of them, the success rate of assassinating Captain John is too low.
The reason why Rosinandi was allowed to sneak in was to give Captain John a good night's sleep.
In addition to its great effect when infiltrating and assassinating, the Silent Fruit also has an extraordinary effect in terms of 'improving sleep quality'!
Everything is ready to wait.
Night.
As Solomon expected, Captain John really chose to come to the study to rest for a while.
Although the situation of Cizers has not yet been clarified, to solve the big trouble of the secret passage, Captain John's heart has been hanging for most of it.
When people are relaxed, they naturally fall asleep easily.
Leaning on the wall and hearing the sound of snoring coming from the study, Belrumel and Rosinandi were relieved.
"Let's get started!"
Rosinandi stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers silently, and in the next moment, with him as the center, an invisible barrier stretched out, enveloping the entire study.
Berumel didn't waste time and pushed the door straight out.
Before she stepped out the door, she was still Berumel, but by the time she stepped out, she had become Dalasha Lucas.
"Someone!"
Berumel took two quick steps and shouted as he stood outside the door of his study.
Hurried footsteps rang out from the end of the corridor, and a group of heavily armed soldiers, led by T. Penn, rushed over: "What does Your Majesty command?" ”
"Now search the other rooms of the palace immediately, and make sure there are no other secret passages!"
Hearing Berummel's words, T. Penn was stunned for a moment, and then he noticed a trace of panic on Berummel's face.
T. Penn felt even more ashamed and blamed himself.
Looking at His Majesty's appearance, it should be a nightmare.
There is a secret passage under the bed in the dormitory, and this kind of thing will make anyone have nightmares.
"Yes!"
T. Penn immediately solemnly gave a knightly salute, and then turned to look at everyone: "Immediately gather people and check all the rooms!" ”
That's all there is to Solomon's perfect battle plan!
Taking advantage of the chaos caused by Cizes' appearance, a reasonable search of places outside the palace was conducted.
Then take advantage of the panic caused by the secret passage to reasonably search the entire palace.
This impossible goal was achieved under Solomon's interlocking plan!
The search operation lasted from midnight until the sun was three shots.
Never in memory could Captain John sleep so comfortably.
He and his younger brother Cizes lost their parents when they were young, and they lived a life of eating the last meal and not the next meal all day.
Later, he became a pirate, although he was not short of food or clothing, but he was worried all day long, and even if he slept, he had to keep three points awake.
But he didn't expect that this only sound sleep would become his last sleep.
