After an intermittent sound, the earphones are calm again.
This kid is more and more cunning!
Throwing the book aside, Claire’s eyes are solemn.
She knows her son very well. It’s obvious that Conan is just avoiding the topic.
Although Conan wants to protect Claire, the more he doesn’t say, the more uneasy Claire is. And she
always feels that something important is going to happen.
But she can’t do anything now. She can only be a canary in a cage and watch the blood flow outside.
...
The weather outside the window is gloomy and in the dead silence, there is a suffocating sense of
oppression.
In the room, Leo sits leisurely in front of the table. His fingers are beating on the table and his eyes are
on the green plants on the windowsill, without focus.
Compared with Leo’s indifference, Luke seems a little impatient. He keeps communicating with his
guys and occasionally makes a phone call. He loses his usual appearance of a noble child.
The floor clock in the room makes a heavy sound, which attracts the sight of Leo and Luke.
With a little breath, Leo stands up, picks up his suit and put on his coat. It is like he is going to
participate in an ordinary business negotiation.
“Are you ready?”
“Yes.”
“OK, let’s go.”
Leo turns to go out, but Luke stops him.
Although he knows the answer, Luke still wants to ask, “Leo, have you really decided? Once decided,
there is no turning back.”
“Do I have a way back now? Even if I want, Juan would not give me this opportunity.”
With that, Leo pushes the door and goes out, while Luke sighs in the back.
It seems that Leo is not easy to let go this time. It afraid that city A going to be a different look.
...
This night, Claire’s sleep is not stable. She is drowsy and awakes when dreaming.
In the early morning, there is a roar outside. Though it is through the window, it also makes people feel
headache.
Rubbing her temples, Claire frowns and opens the quilt, murmuring, “What’s the matter? Why is it so
noisy?”
Claire wants to ask the maid what’s the matter. When she opens the door, she finds that there is no
one outside.
Although these servants have dissatisfaction on Claire, they never dare to show and she never fail to
find anyone. What’s the matter now?
Claire has no tend to sleep at all. She walks down the corridor one by one, but no one comes across
her.
This huge castle like a ghost house, let the outside make earth shaking noises, but it’s very quiet
inside.
“Bang bang—”
This is... Blast!?
The sudden noise makes Claire shrink her shoulders. Then she turns her head and looks out of the
window and her pupils suddenly shrink.
Dozens of helicopters are circling the castle at low altitude, dropping bombs on the ground from time to
time, breaking up the guards who are hiding in the dark.
The attack of the other side is very purposeful. The location of dropping bombs is important guard
location. Soon, the defense in the castle is defeated.
At the same time, snipers with heavy weapons rush in and breaks the scattered defense one by one. In
a short time, Juan suffers heavy casualties.
Even through the glass window, Claire can smell the bloody smell outside. The scene of hell makes
Claire turns around and retches.
“Mommy, Mommy?”
Conan’s voice! ?
Claire raises her wrists and found that the wristwatch is shining red again.
But this time she doesn’t wear headphones. How could she hear Conan’s voice?
As if aware of Claire’s surprise, Conan explains, “The signal interference system in the castle has been
destroyed and we can contact freely now.”
Claire has come back to her senses and feels very nervous. Thinking of the terrible scene outside, she
hurriedly says to her watch, “You shouldn’t be here, God, go to a safe place!”
“Mommy, don’t worry. I’m in the computer room to contact you now. It’s very safe. Now it’s urgent.
Mommy, follow my instructions.”
Conan stares at the electronic topographic map and says calmly, “Mommy, you go to the second floor
and enter the first room on the left. There is a secret room that leads to the underground passage.
Daddy’s people are waiting for you there.”
“Are all Leo’s people out there?”
“Well, in order to save Mommy, daddy does his best.”
“But I don’t think it’s that easy.”
“What’s the matter?”
Claire runs downstairs quickly and looks around, frowns and says, “There is no one in the castle. I don’t
see Juan or even a servant.”
Conan believes in Leo’ s strength and says confidently, “Maybe they are scared away by daddy’s
attack.”
“No, it’s not that easy! With Juan’s character, he would never leave without fighting. Especially in the
face of Leo, I’m afraid that he has other plans.”
“No matter what his plan is, this time, daddy will surely makes him suffer.”
“What? Leo is here too?”
Claire’s tone suddenly increases, which makes Conan panic and asks, “Yes, Mommy, what’s the
problem?”
There’s a problem and it’s a big one!
Claire can’t help but stop and look around. Suddenly there is a kind of bone chilling.
Today, everything is fine. Juan protected this place as if it were solid as gold. Nobody couldn’t arrive.
How could he let himself leave without resistance this time? Even, it’s a bit like letting her go on
purpose...
Juan, what is he thinking?
“Mommy, what are you doing?”
Claire opens her lips just to say something. She finds a familiar figure walks by in a flash.
Juan?
“Conan, don’t talk, keep quiet.”
“Mommy, what are you doing? No matter what you find, don’t pay attention to it, just follow what I says
first...”
Before Conan finishes, Claire unties the wristwatch and stuffs it into the innermost pocket of her clothes
and then carefully follows Juan.
After three or two turns, Claire finds the study’s door of Juan is opened.
After tiptoeing to the door, Claire sticks her ear to door and holds her breath.
“Boss, everything is ready, just wait for Leo to appear!”
Claire remembers this voice. It’s Juan’s Trusting people, a bald man.
“Very well, this time, Leo will come to a bad end!”
As expected, Juan has another plan!
Claire’s hands and feet are cold and her hands trembles slightly. She leans forward for fear of missing
something.
Bald men are used to death, but when he thinks of the scene of purgatory outside, he can’t help but
pick up his eyebrows and says, “It’s not fair for us to let him die so easily. In order to kill him, We lost a
lot of people this time.”
