Chapter 36: A Cruel Choice

Arriving on the first floor, looking at the noisy jailer's room, which was shining with light, Leo said, "What are you going to ask?"

Robert was very annoyed by his previous poor performance, of course he didn't want Leo to look down on him, so he pretended to be mysterious: "You go up to the second floor first, and wait in the room just now." I'm going to get a home and ask. ”

Leo couldn't help but hesitate: "It's too dangerous to do this, there are at least seven or eight people in there!"

Robert waved his hand very calmly and replied, "Don't worry, I naturally have a way." ”

Seeing that the other party was so determined, Leo had no choice but to nod and walk to the second floor, but he was still ready to run away immediately.

Ordinary jailers are definitely not too strong, maybe they can solve a few of them casually, but the strength of the warden is by no means weak, after all, there are many prisoners with special strength. And once the jailer gets the opportunity to warn and attract the garrison, it will be even more troublesome, those people are at least level 2 or 3 strength, if one or two are okay, in case a whole team comes, if it is not good, both of them will have to give their lives here.

"Squeak!"

Leo had just reached the door of the room when suddenly, a sharp rat call came. He looked back in amazement, but he didn't expect the voice to come from Robert.

"This guy even learns how to bark like a mouse...... But it works?" muttered Leo, and the next moment there was a burst of laughter in the jailer's room.

"Boss, let's eat and drink, and bring in all the rats. ”

"Who said no, listening to the screams, I'm still hungry. ”

"Can you tell if a rat is hungry or not?"

"Hahahaha, boss, maybe he has the blood of a rat man!"

Listening to the laughter in the room, the corners of Robert's mouth twitched slightly, and he worked harder to learn to cry. For a moment, the entire building reverberated with an unpleasant sound of "squeaking".

"Damn, this rat is crazy? Catch him and feed him to the dogs. ”

"Isn't it a cat that eats mice, why do you feed a dog?" all of his subordinates had such questions, but of course they were stupid enough to say it.

"Boss, how can such a small matter trouble you, I'll do it. ”

"Okay, go and come back quickly, if you don't finish drinking these drinks tonight, no one will want to leave!"

"Of course, brothers, drink slowly, and I'll keep it. ”

A few seconds later. A stout jailer stepped out of the room. However, before that, Robert had already reached the second floor with the guò flash technique. He didn't believe that in such a place, anyone could feel the subtle fluctuations when casting magic.

Sure enough, the jailer was completely unaware of it, and only listened carefully, but did not find out where the rat was.

"Ran away when you saw Lao Tzu come out?" In such a dark environment, the jailer didn't believe that he could catch a mouse, but as long as it didn't disturb the boss and his brothers' drinking fun, who cared about a mouse?

Mended. He had just turned around to return when the rat barked again.

"Squeak, squeak, squeak!"

The difference is that this time the rat cry came from upstairs, and it was louder and more piercing. And...... It seems to be a little disdainful.

The jailer scratched his head, not understanding why he could hear the disdain from the rat's call, but he certainly wasn't afraid of a mouse, and ran upstairs in a huff. At the same time, he cursed in a low voice: "Look down on Lao Tzu, I have to kill you!"

A few minutes later, there was a thud and an object slammed to the ground. The whole building shook slightly.

The jailers immediately felt that something was wrong, and rushed out of the room in a swarm, all kinds of weapons clanging, and when they could see the situation outside, they were all stunned. It turned out to be the jailer who had just gone to catch rats, lying on the ground moaning.

One of the strong men who looked like a leader walked over a few steps and asked, "What's the matter?"

The jailer, who was lying on the ground, suddenly felt that he was awake, and replied according to the memory in his head, "Boss...... I had just gone to catch a mouse and got a slip under my foot and fell off it. ”

"This guy is such a stupid guy that he can knock himself off if he catches a mouse. The others immediately burst into laughter.

............

The moonlight fell, covering the whole world with a pale blue glow, and also making Castle Rock appear more and more serene and serene.

But Leo and Robert obviously did not have this state of mind, because from the mouth of the jailer just now, the two of them had already learned that the current situation was very critical.

I don't know what happened, but the missing messenger of the Joseph family was caught as a thief in the dungeon of the town hall, and just three days earlier, he was taken out by a man claiming to be Viscount Kadessa.

In a hidden corner outside the town hall, Robert muttered, "You can't be wrong, Viscount Cadessa is the brother-in-law of Marquis Bobby, and they must have done this wrong." ”

Leo had heard of Marquis Bobby, one of the most powerful men in the entire Ruhr region. And the Marquis of Bobby, which is not far from the county of Joseph, is only separated by less than a hundred kilometers. If there is any family in the Ruhr region that does not want to see the Joseph family gain power, the Bobby family must be ranked first, because the two families have friction from time to time in the struggle for the actual control of several adjacent barons and viscounts, and if it were not for the strict restrictions of the noble council, they would have even started a large-scale war long ago.

Leo nodded in agreement, and then said helplessly: "Even if we know who the other party is, where can we find someone?"

Robert took a magic map from his spatial ring, quickly found the target, and pointed it to Leo: "If that jailer is not lying, if my judgment is not wrong, it is very likely that Viscount Kadesa has received the messenger here." ”

"It's not supposed to be lying, a jailer at the lowest level, in that case he didn't lie reasonably. Leo analyzed, and quickly saw the location pointed out by the moonlight, "Milton Manor...... Why do you think it's here?"

Robert explained without hesitation: "This seems to be Baron Milton's territory, but in fact, according to the family's intelligence, Baron Milton has long taken refuge in the Bobby family, and this manor is also the base camp of the Bobby family's intelligence system in Kaiyan City." Our Joseph family used to have this kind of place, but now it has been completely abandoned. ”

"I see...... Leo suddenly noticed that Robert's eyes were bright and frightening, and his heart moved, and asked, "Do you want to go to Milton Manor?"

Robert said firmly: "That's right! They shouldn't know that we have this information, this is an opportunity not to be missed! As long as the messenger can be found, every trouble can be solved!"

Leo thought of another question, and hesitated: "Even if the enemy is clear and dark now, the other party will definitely keep the messenger under strict guard, and you also said that it is the base camp of their intelligence system, and there must be many strong people sitting in the town, and it will be very difficult to rescue people." ”

"Of course, it would be best if there was a chance to rescue, but if it really can't be rescued, it doesn't have to be rescued, as long as there is no room for survival. Robert sighed and continued, "Even if the letter is taken by them, there is still a good chance that it will self-destruct. The family has no way out now, and I have no way out, so I can only gamble once!"

Although the words seem ruthless, sometimes only a few can be sacrificed for the benefit of the many. For the sake of the entire Joseph family, it was a natural and correct choice, but at the same time cruel, to abandon an insignificant messenger.

Leo's sanity made him know that Robert was right, and there really wasn't much time for his mother-in-law right now. Thinking of this, he immediately said, "Okay, then let's go now." ”

Robert smiled at first, then narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked, "Are you really going?"

"For Joseph, of course. Leo looked at Robert earnestly and replied.

"Yes, for Joseph!" Robert suddenly became a little agitated and patted Leo on the shoulder.

Although the two of them did not do the same thing, one for the whole family and the other for a few people, at this moment, their goal is exactly the same, that is, to ensure that the Joseph family will not be caught by the enemy and survive this difficult period. (To be continued......)
