Chapter 599

The captain of the guard took out the flashlight and turned it on.Five meters away, he stared wide-eyed and scanned the rooms on the third floor one by one.

Trespassing is not for idle people.He didn't dare to rush to die, let alone wait for his master to come.

There are [-] or [-] rooms, large and small, and they have been swept over ten times.I still don't know where the lady is locked up.

Although someone has been sent to call the food delivery maid designated by Mrs. He, it is difficult to arrive in a short time.

The figure of General He walked across the garden with a solemn expression on his face.The captain quickly stepped forward to salute and approached to report.

"Give me the binoculars, don't shoot at random."

The guards responded in unison and immediately made way.

General He collected himself, moved his eyes closer to the lens barrel, and stared at the small room at the end of the corridor.

From the appearance, if you don't carefully identify it, you will ignore its existence.

The doors and windows are small, hidden by a half-person-high flowers and plants.

At first glance, the leaves and flowers of the flowers and plants are not damaged, and the windows and doors do not show signs of damage.

Did the sneaked assassin steal the key, or did he have another clever tool?

He frowned and said nothing.

Soon, a guard brought a woolen coat, saying it was for his wife.General He put it on, his face became more gloomy.

The captain didn't dare to disturb, and retreated consciously.

At this time, the guards who had been sent to search for people also came back.It's just that there is nothing behind, and there is no shadow of the little maid.

The captain suddenly felt bad, suppressed his panic, and asked in a low voice:

"Why are you alone?"

The errand runner was panting and answered incoherently:

"Gone."

"The chef who made supper is also gone."

"There is also one less person on duty at the south gate. No, it seems to be two."

Hearing that the captain was confused, he hastily raised his hands to his ear and shouted:

"Speak clearly, lost so many people?!"

With this roar, the bad news quickly spread to everyone's ears like thunder.

It was too early for dawn.Under the cover of darkness, it is impossible to figure out the reality of the enemy.As soon as they heard that many people were missing in the house, there was chaos from top to bottom.

General He has been on the battlefield for more than 20 years, and he is not a problem with knives, guns and artillery.

Encountering the chaos in his own house, he was helpless.

He was like a big stove burning fire, with sparks crackling and flying wildly.He opened his throat and shouted upstairs:

"If you don't surrender, you will die, get out of here!"

In a fit of irritability, he ruthlessly threw the binoculars to his feet:
"Bang!"

The captain of the guard hurried to pick up the binoculars, but was caught off guard and blocked by his arm.

Being pushed away without hindrance, terrified and helpless.

His legs were very stiff, and he couldn't take two steps in five minutes. In his heart, he scolded his master's eighteen generations of ancestors dozens of times.

General He couldn't bear the speed, turned his head and waved vigorously at the crowd:

"Go upstairs! There is a big reward for catching the assassin!"

The crowd burst into rounds of applause, and the scene was lively and spectacular.

The ten or so bold ones touched the door first, raised their guns and smashed the door: "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The door was smashed harder and harder.Li Yan couldn't bear to push the closet door.Just halfway through, I saw her smiling slyly, with her slender fingers touching her lips, signaling to keep quiet.

"Are you going to let me stay inside? How can this work!"

"Crack!" Shi'an moved the lock hidden in the dark, and the cabinet door was completely closed.

This also means that everything outside has nothing to do with him.

The wound on Li Yan's body has not healed.It took a lot of physical strength to save Shi'an, and it was all supported by spirit.It was dark all around, and he was a little short of breath.To keep yourself from falling asleep, pinch your temples now and then.

The door was made of solid materials, and it took almost two hours to smash it before it fell to the ground.

The floor shook heavily.

The man in black woke up startled and struggled vigorously.The two guards who rushed into the house first beat and kicked excitedly, and screamed again and again.

The captain also ran over after hearing the news: "Look at Miss!"

As soon as she finished shouting, Shi'an crawled out from under the bed, "I'm fine, take the assassin away!"

"God bless the lady safe! Please go out with us, the general is still waiting downstairs."

Shi'an quietly glanced at the closet, but there was no sound inside.

"I'll change my clothes before going out, you guys go first."

The guards escorted the assassin downstairs.The captain walked in the forefront and reported the situation in the room to General He.

Just when Li Yan couldn't bear it any longer, the closet door opened again.Fresh air poured in, and the chest tightness eased a lot.

He coughed a few times, opened his eyes and climbed out of the cabinet, but was surprised to see a figure shaking beside the bed.I was so embarrassed for a moment that I almost lost my breath.

Shi'an didn't expect him to come out so quickly, she grabbed the quilt and rolled it up in fright.

Li Yan closed his eyes and faced the wall.His face was red and his ears were red, and his whole body was hot, as if he had drunk too much wine.

When she changed her clothes and came over to call, he still didn't dare to move.

"The pistol was returned to its owner."

After receiving the gun she handed over, Li Yan checked the bullets worriedly, and felt relieved after confirming that only one was missing.

"Steal my gun just now, and accidentally fired a bullet?"

"I did it on purpose," Shi'an looked at the bullet holes in the ceiling, "If the assassin has accomplices, he will not dare to come in rashly when he hears the gunfire. It will take some time for Dad to bring people to arrive."

"I can't figure out the history of the assassin, so I want you not to show up. You will know who sent it after the interrogation."

Li Yan smiled helplessly, "Where should I hide next?"

"There are guards downstairs, sneak in while it's still dark."

He hesitated a little, but couldn't resist Shi'an's persuasion, so he nodded and agreed.

She straightened her dress and walked down the stairs, not halfway there before she saw her father standing in front of her.

General He was still secretly guilty.Seeing that her daughter was basically unscathed except for being hungry and thin, she immediately stretched out her hand with relief:
"An An!"

"father!"

The daughter clenched her father's hand tightly. The calluses left by the guns all the year round made the skin of her palm ache.

Born in this patriarchal family, the father prefers several older brothers.But she has regarded him as the best role model since she was a child.

"The identity of the assassin is a mystery."

"Why?" She asked puzzled, "What happened?"

"He killed himself directly with the poison hidden in his body. He was really well prepared."

General He's eyes were gloomy and gloomy.As soon as the assassin died, the trace of pursuit was broken.The maids, chefs and guards are all missing, where can I find them?
Shi'an calmly comforted his father a few words, and asked tentatively:
"I was in the room just now and heard the captain shouting 'so many people have been lost', how many are there?"

"There is a cook missing, the maid who brought you food, and the two guards at the south gate. Someone has already been sent to look for it."

"They're all missing?!" Shi'an was stunned.

The appearance of the little maid kneeling on the ground begging herself to eat appeared in her mind, and her heart ached.

As for the chef, it was probably the fault of the fruit soup.If she knew that something unexpected would happen to them at night, she would definitely eat up all the food in the food box during the day.

After calculating the time, it was time for Li Yan to go downstairs.

"Dad, can you ask the captain to count the number again?"
