Chapter 33: Exposed
Time was too short, and she didn't have time to worry about Sulla's side right now. Seeing that it was almost noon, the most important thing at the moment was to find other people to discuss how to get out of here.
Tian Li went back to the low house on the east side to look for Lin Qingxue. He told Tian Li that everyone could leave in Cinderella's pumpkin carriage, and this carriage was now left outside by Song Xinchuan and them, and it was just right to use.
Now that the two young ladies are injured, the castle is a mess, and they can use Sulla's token to do it again.
Hearing this, that token was already the only way for them to pass at this time, and it was impossible for her to find Song Xinchuan to take it now.
Now she's up to her to find the key.
It was not early, Lin Weixue said, "You go back and clean up first, and we'll leave now."
Tian Li glanced at Lin Weixue complicatedly and told him about it.
"The matter of the dress was discovered, and Zhang Xincheng was arrested yesterday."
Lin Weixue saw the hesitation in Tian Li's eyes, "You want to save her?" ”
Time is pressing, Tian Li is no longer beating around the bush, she tells Lin Weixue her thoughts.
"Let's put aside the identity of the werewolf killer first, I think Zhang Xincheng is a strong and reliable teammate."
Retired military man, steady character, strength and IQ are online.
"What's more, she's also my friend, I don't want to give up on her, at least let me try."
Lin Weixue was silent for a while, and he persuaded: "Then what if you fail, we can't protect ourselves now, and we still have the leisure to care about others?"
"I do my best." Tian Li said, "I know in my heart that I won't lose myself." ”
"Give me a little time, before dusk, whether I can rescue Zhang Xincheng or not, I will go with you."
Just as Tian Li was about to leave, Lin Weixue suddenly stopped her.
"Need my help?"
Tian Li paused, and she hesitated.
"No, you don't."
Looks like this man is still sulking at him.
Looking at Tian Li's distant back, Lin Xiaoxue thought.
Zhang Xincheng is the maid next to his wife. Naturally, there is an understanding of big and small things. She told Tian Li that all the keys to the prison room were in the hands of the Patrolman, and that he lived near the gate of the castle.
The east side is some distance from the gate, and in order to save time on the road, Tian Li tries to trot all the way when she is in a hurry.
Suddenly, her feet ached, as if she had stepped on a rock.
The dagger in the shoe smacked her, and she almost broke her foot.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, she put the dagger in her shoes in her pocket, and with a sharp weapon in her hand, she felt a little more at ease.
There weren't many people in the guardroom, and she wandered around outside a few times before finally seeing a familiar face.
That person was the patrol chief that Tian Li and Lin Weixue met a few days ago when they were giving Cinderella crystal slippers. He was alone in the room. The man crossed Erlang's legs, and he took a break with his eyes half-squinted.
She took a deep breath and walked in boldly.
The man really didn't fall asleep, he opened his eyes almost the moment Tian Li entered the house. Seeing that it was a maid coming, the man closed his eyes again.
"I'm Miss Sula's maid, and Miss said she wanted the key to the captivity."
The man opened his eyes. He stood up directly from the chair and slowly approached Tian Li.
The man was tall and strong, and when he came to Tian Li, it was like a small mountain, blocking most of the light above her head.
The feeling of oppression in the shadows hit, the heart under the chest was pounding, and Tian Li secretly told herself to be calm.
"You ought to have seen me two days ago, in the garden, and I gave Miss Sulla the clothes she wore to the ball."
When she was in the hall just now, she didn't see the head of the guard, she was gambling, betting that the other party didn't know about the crystal slipper.
Sure enough, the man stared at her face for a long time, and seemed to recognize it. He turned, opened a compartment in a drawer, and pulled out a silver key.
"The key is universal." The man threw the key to her.
Tian Li took the key and was about to leave. Seeing that victory was in sight, she was about to walk out of the door, when the man suddenly stopped her.
"Wait."
Tian Li's back stiffened and stopped.
"Where's Miss's token?"
Tian Li took a deep breath and replied calmly: "Didn't you watch it that day?"
"Can that day's token be able to hold up to today?"
Tian Li knew that it would be more and more unfavorable to her if she continued to consume, so she decided to use a delaying tactic.
"Miss Sula has something to do now, you can go back to her later to see if what I said is true."
The door was behind her, and Tian Li was about to run out when she found the opportunity, but the man was one step ahead of her, and closed the door with a "touch".
"Leave the key without a token!" The man's words were unrelenting.
The two of them are too different in size, Tian Li knows that she is definitely not his opponent; She could only step back into the house and distance herself from the man while thinking about countermeasures.
Tian Li's silent response had already made the man guess the approximate, the man squinted, he raised his hand to lock the door, and then turned around and looked at her coldly.
"It seems that Miss Sulla has an unfaithful servant on her side."
Now that the enemy is strong and she is weak, it is obviously not a good way to provoke the other party, Tian Li's mouth swirls around, while observing the scene in the house.
The man continued: "Except for the masters, we only recognize tokens, not people. Do you give up on your own, or do you let me do it? ”
She replied, "There are times when the masters are careless, and Miss Sulla explains before going to bed that I, as a servant, can only do what Miss tells me to do."
Tian Li's eyes looked down. There was a wooden table between the two of them, on which were some supplies, all small objects.
The man didn't take Tian Li's words to heart: "Little girl, you have a hard mouth."
She replied, "I am a new servant a few days ago, and I do not know all the rules of the castle, but I do do as Mademoiselle commands."
Tian Li looked around with her peripheral vision. Behind her left is the window, which is open, and to the right is the cabinet for the key. There should only be a low bed in the back.
The man pressed a few more steps, and Tian Li circled around the table with him.
The room was not big, and the table between the two of them was like a mantis arm as a car, and Tian Li felt that the other party could catch her by speeding up two steps.
"Hand over the key!"
Seeing that Tian Li didn't intend to be caught, the man was already a little impatient.
"I'm going to hand you over to Madame and let her know that there is a traitor in the castle!"
