Chapter 43 Windsor Castle (42)

"Tears! The first thing the gardener thought of was to ask how his daughter was doing!"

"The gardener really loves his daughter!"

"Really, I envy that little daughter for having a "dad" who loves her so much."

……

Xu Zhinian patted his shoulder and asked him to calm down: "Don't worry, she's fine."

"It's you," Xu Zhinian said, looking back at the gardener and smacking his tongue: "Why were you brought here by the countess?"

The gardener rubbed the spot on his neck where he was injured by the sap and shook his head in confusion: "I don't remember. I only remember that the countess brought someone over, and someone behind her suddenly gave me a stick. When I woke up, it was now."

As he was talking, he noticed the sack on his body.

He gasped in fright and jumped out of the sack.His face was full of confusion: "I didn't even know that I was tied up with a sack."

Xu Zhinian smiled and stood up.

It was obvious that the gardener had no idea why he was here.

No problem.

At least people were rescued.He also found out where the countess kept her secret, killing two birds with one stone.

She reached out and helped the gardener up from the ground.

Then, to make a long story short: "The Countess will come back at some unknown time. Since everything is fine, let's take a look around to see if there are any useful clues?"

The gardener nodded: "Okay."

The two left the sacks aside and walked around the apartment.

The two of them walked while observing the items and layout in the suite.

Sure enough, they found a clue!

The gardener found a medicine bottle on the table in the suite with a red exclamation mark painted on it.

He raised the medicine bottle and shook it to Xu Zhinian on the other side: "Miss Xu, come and see this!"

Xu Zhinian heard the words and walked over.

A red exclamation mark stood out clearly, with small words indicating danger next to it.

Inside the medicine bottle was powdered medicine, and there was also a small half bottle.

The top seal is new and sealed tightly with glue.Upon closer inspection, it seems that there are traces of glue from a long time ago.

It seemed as if someone had opened it a few days ago and then sealed it again.

Xu Zhinian stared at the medicine bottle, and the red magic power emanated from the inside.

Of course, only she can see the color of magic power.

She thought: this may be the poison the countess used to poison her.

It's sealed with glue, and there's no way to open it without destroying the status quo.

And because the powder inside was dangerous, Xu Zhinian gave up the idea of ​​opening it and taking some out.

I thought too deeply and became silent again.

Seeing her silence, the gardener took the medicine bottle in his hand and looked closer.

After observing for a long time, I couldn't find anything out.

He scratched his head: "Miss Xu, what do you think is in this medicine bottle?"

Xu Zhinian was stunned just now, but just came back to his senses.

"Ah..." She hesitated for a moment, then quickly added: "There are dangerous symbols painted on it, maybe it's poison?"

"Poison?" The gardener nodded and pulled out another piece of paper from the table: "Then this is how to interpret poison?"

Hearing this, Xu Zhinian immediately looked over.

Why didn't she think of that?Being such a cautious person, the countess would definitely leave an antidote next to the poison in case she was accidentally poisoned.

His eyes fell on the piece of paper, and as soon as he smiled, he frowned again.

The gardener sighed: "It's not the antidote."

"It's not bad?" Xu Zhinian asked in a rhetorical tone, grabbing the piece of paper and looking at it again: "At least it has written down the method of poisoning and what the poison is."

"It's okay! Just think of it as giving our sister Xu a hard time!"

"Laughing to death? How difficult is this? What's the point of having poison? Sister Xu is the disciple of the miracle doctor Xia Zhu. Can't she prepare the antidote in minutes?"

"Listen, who is stamping their feet?"

*
Just as the gardener was about to ask something else, there was a sudden stamping of feet outside the door.

Stomping his feet very frequently, Xu Zhinian immediately understood: "Quickly! The countess is back!" Xu Zhinian hurriedly returned the medicine bottle to its place, looked at the note again, wrote down the poison ingredients written on it, and put it back.

The gardener was still stunned, Xu Zhinian sighed helplessly, pulled him and walked out the door.

When walking out of the suite, Xu Zhinian waved his hand and used magic to restore the three locks.

Attracted a group of barrages: 666.

When she pulled the gardener out of the door of the countess's room, she just ran to hide behind the corner.

The countess walked back to the door with a look of displeasure on her face, and the anger on her face could be seen from a distance.

She pushed the door open forcefully, and the door hit the wall in the room with a loud "snap".

so close!

They were almost discovered.

The two guards were still frightened and said to Xu Zhinian: "Now that the matter is over, we will go back first."

Xu Zhinian thanked them both and watched them leave.

Immediately, she hurriedly pulled the gardener back to the room on the third floor along the stairs.

As soon as she reached the stairs on the third floor, a loud roar came from the countess' room.

As soon as the countess returned to the house, she went to see the gardener in the apartment.

Who would have thought that she had just opened the door to the suite, and the sack was left in the corner, and the gardener was gone.

She roared angrily: "Who! Who entered my room!"

The sound resounded throughout the corridor. Xu Zhinian pursed his lips and pushed open the door. After closing the door again, he could no longer hear the countess shouting downstairs.

The little girl was sitting worriedly on the chair on the desk in front of the window when she heard the door knock and turned around.

When she saw the gardener, she jumped out of her chair excitedly and ran towards him.

The gardener hugged her and they both cried.

The little girl sobbed: "Dad, where have you been! Why did you come back!"

The gardener stretched out his calloused palms and wiped away the tears from the corners of the little girl's eyes: "Dad is fine. He's back. My dear daughter, we won't cry!"

……

There was a warm scene in front of him, but Xu Zhinian couldn't relax at all.

It is conceivable that after the countess knew that the gardener had been rescued, she would definitely search for someone in the castle.

It probably won't be long before we find her room.

It's a pity that the plan cannot be advanced. If you want to complete the dungeon mission, you can only complete it on that day.

It seems that he really needs to go to the housekeeper for help as he told the two guards.

She turned around, gave Balu and the others a few words, opened the door and left.

Go down the stairs quickly and reach the room at the end of the corridor on the second floor.

After the door opened, the housekeeper already had a respectful expression when she saw Xu Zhinian again.

No matter how hard the bones are, they cannot withstand long-term suffering.

The housekeeper spoke first: "Miss Longguo, why are you here?"

"Yes, are you going to let me go?"

"I really wrote a lot, but I, I can't think of anything anymore. I don't know what to write."

……

"Is this still the ferocious-looking housekeeper?"

"No, upstairs, when did the housekeeper dare to look ferocious in front of Sister Xu!"

"The housekeeper wants to be cruel, but she can't bear it. Her opponent is Sister Xu!"

……

She spoke extremely sincerely. Xu Zhinian looked at her with only the last part of his calf stuck in the wall.

Xu Zhinian smiled: "I know. So, I'm here to let you out."

After saying that, she raised her hand to control the magic.

It's just that the magic was halfway controlled when it suddenly stopped.

The anxious housekeeper asked: "What's wrong? Didn't you say you wanted to let me out? Why did you stop again?"

Xu Zhinian then smiled and said, "I want to let you out, but you must agree to a condition first."
