White Tower Wizard

Chapter 30: cell

   Alice was a little restless, and the conversation with Nick at the door just now became the source of her anxiety.

   Mr. Green was kidnapped? How could this happen, he is such a good person! Where is he? Will he die? …

   "Woo! Woo..."

Oh! The water boiled.

   Alice woke up from her thoughts, took the old kettle stained with a thick layer of black soot from the stove, and then added a piece of wood to the simple stone stove.

   The flame burning in this stove is the only light source in the house and the only heat source that can withstand the cold in the dark night.

   It doesn't matter if she is frozen, the key is that her mother is still sick, and she wants to make the house warmer as much as possible.

   After taking a look at the fire, Alice took the kettle and poured water into the cup. However, with her thoughts in her mind, she lost her mind and did not notice the actions of her men.

   A burst of white steam rose, and the hot boiling water had already overflowed the mouth of the cup, spread on the table top, and finally flowed downward along the table leg with the thread.

   "Cough...cough cough...Ari..."

On the bed next to    lies a woman, with sparse and withered blond hair, her face is bloodless, her lips are pale, her eye sockets are sunken, and there is a thick black shadow under her eyes, she looks very sick.

   She saw the scene of Alice pouring water, and she couldn't help but struggled to remind her: "Ahhh... Alice... the water is full...hhhhhh..."

   "Oh! Oops! I forgot... Ay, it's hot!"

   Alice heard the sound and reacted. She quickly put down the kettle, hurriedly trying to clean up the water stains on the table, but was scalded by the boiling water without paying attention.

   "Sorry! Mom, you must be very hungry, I will feed you right away."

   But she didn't care about her hands, she just repeatedly expressed apologies to the woman on the bed. Then she quickly took out a paper bag containing bread from the only cabinet in the room.

  Opening the bag, he glanced inside, and was stunned again.

   "This bread was still given to me by Mr. Green that day..."

   But this time I was dumbfounded for a short time. After a pause, Alice took out half of the bread from the bag and put it on the table. Then she turned around, came to the bed, and helped the woman who was lying on the bed sit up with her hands, leaning against the head of the bed.

   Then she picked up the bread again, picked up the cup of hot water, sat on the edge of the bed, and slowly fed the woman.

   "Mom, be careful..."

   After eating some bread and drinking some water, facing the bread that Alice handed to her mouth again, the woman shook her head slightly, indicating that she no longer needed it.

  Slowly succumbed, the woman said in a faint voice: "Ah...Eri, you have something on your mind, are you in trouble?"

   "Huh? Mom, don't worry, nothing..." Alice replied in a depressed mood.

"Oh, you've never been a kid who can hide things in your heart... Heh heh... I just lost my mind when pouring water. I was just afraid that you would hurt myself. Heh heh... What is it that can make you feel so disheartened... "

Under the woman's continuous questioning, Alice raised her head and said in a puzzled tone: "Mom, if you say... you know a good person who helped you, and now you are in a great dilemma. You have the ability to help him, will you go?"

"...You have to ask your own heart, Ai Li, your ability is very powerful, this is a gift from God, you should use it in the right place...cough cough cough...do you want to help him? Take care of me..."

   "Mr. Green is a good man! But..."

   Alice's face is full of melancholy.

   What should I do?

  ……

   Just when little Alice was in a complicated mood and was a little overwhelmed.

   Green, who was locked in the cell, finally broke the rope tied to his wrist, and then quickly untied the rope tied to his feet, finally regaining his mobility.

"asshole!"

   He carefully rubbed his wrist that was red and painful because of the friction with the rope, and quickly searched his whole body, not only the revolver was gone, but also the pocket watch and some money in the inner pocket of his jacket.

   gritted his teeth bitterly, Green got up and walked behind the iron door. Through the narrow observation window on the door, you could see that there was no one in the passage.

   Looking at from his position, there is an upward step at the end of the passage, and the step up, it should be the hall. I don't know if the two people are in the hall now.

   There are four rooms on each side of the short passage of more than ten meters, plus the one at the end, there are a total of 9 cells. The other 8 rooms are closed, and I don’t know if there are any people in them.

   He pulled the iron door vigorously, it didn't move, and it was locked tightly!

   It was horrible and quiet outside. He couldn't hear any movement. He didn't know where Ute and Francis had gone, as if everyone had gone, and only himself was left.

   Who are these people? Is it related to Dr. Merkel asking him to investigate the plague incident in the sky camp? But it was too fast. How long did he separate from Merkel before he had time to do anything! Is this the danger Merkel said?

   Even if he was staring at him in the hospital, it took so much effort to tie a person who didn't know anything to such a far place to lock him up. This is obviously a thing that pays far more than the benefit, and it doesn't make sense.

   But besides that, who else could these people be? Is there anything special about him that is worth kidnapping?

   Also, along the way, Ute and Francis mentioned a man named Hanks several times, and they were obviously afraid of this man.

   Is Hanks their leader? Is he locked here just to wait for this person to come back? Where did this Hanks go? In this way, before this person returns, his life safety is still guaranteed.

and many more!

   There is another possibility! Will this kidnapping have something to do with the magic prohibition in his brain? Ever since knowing that there is a magic restriction in his brain, Green has been brooding about this matter.

   will it be what I guessed it? Perhaps the people who imposed magical restrictions on him are this group of people...

Ugh! I blame myself, how can I just lose that memory!

   Green was a little annoyed. He found nothing behind the iron gate. He didn't want to waste his energy, so he turned back and sat on the edge of the bed. Staying quietly in the dark cell, only the mind is running fast, trying to weave all kinds of clues together and uncover the tip of the misty iceberg.

   "嘚, 嘚, 嘚..."

   Green was awakened suddenly, and there was a crisp sound of footsteps in the corridor outside the door, the sound was very regular, from small to loud, from far to near.

   Not right! The sound is wrong! The footsteps of Ute and Francis are not like this.

   There is a third person here!

   Hearing the sound is still far away, he hesitated sitting on the bed, should he lie down and pretend to be asleep right away? Or go to the door to take a look at the situation outside...

   "Squeak..."

   There was a sound of door opening.

   The doors of other cells were opened!

   Finally, he made up his mind, walked carefully to the door, and quietly checked the situation outside through the observation window.

   There is no one in the passage, but the door of the second cell on the left is open. Green listened carefully, as if something had been placed on the ground, there was another sparse sound. Someone was grunting in pain, the voice was very weak, but in this too quiet environment, Green heard it.

   There are people in this cell!

   After a while, a woman in a long black dress came out with a large tray in her hand. The tray contained tall bottles and a large circle of blood-stained bandages scattered around.

   "Change the dressing? The injured person?"

   Green became tense in his heart. It seems that these cells are not as "quiet" as he imagined. He smelled a dangerous breath.

   The woman in the black dress didn't notice, her eyes were watching her every move.

   put the tray at the door, she took out the key and opened the door of the third cell on the right, then took the tray and walked in without any trouble.

   I want to come, there is also a wounded person waiting for her to change the dressing, but the voice that has not spoken, is there no communication, or the person in it is like him, and is asleep under the spell?

   Thinking back to her actions just now, Green felt that there was something weird that couldn't be said. The slow walking posture, the squatting up posture, the crisp footsteps echoing in the passage, all give people an inexplicable horror...

Because of the narrow field of view and the close distance, he can’t see clearly, but this woman is slender, with long chestnut hair wrapped around her head, and her long black dress reaches the ground, covering her whole body from the neck down. She looked a bit like a nun, but she wore a black lace ribbon around her neck, which was less solemn and more playful.

   "What kind of dress is this?"

   Green didn't think about it. He suddenly felt that he had found an opportunity. Every time the black dress woman opened the door and entered the cell, she didn't close the door. Maybe it was because she felt that there was no possibility of escape.

   But he is different!

   I don’t know if she will walk into this cell in a while. If she does come, it might be a chance to escape, but how to do it...

   "Squeak..."

   Before Green could think about his escape plan, the sharp door closing sounded, startling him.

   looked up, the black dress girl was walking towards his room.

   Done!

  The plan can't keep up with the changes, let alone there is no time to make a plan...

   Let's adapt!

   Green paid attention to his feet, did not make any movement, and quickly returned to the bed. Seeing the rope he had untied before, he picked it up and tangled it around his ankles and wrists without hesitation.

   But apparently he underestimated how difficult it was for him to tie his wrist with a rope. For a while, his hand slipped and the rope fell to the ground. No success once, time did not give him a second chance, the crisp and rhythmic footsteps were already close at hand, as if the woman was already standing outside the door.

   to suffer! To suffer! Time is running out!

   Said it was too late and it was fast. Green reached out and planed the rope under the bed as soon as it fell.

   There is no way, I hope she doesn’t bury her head too low...

   At this time, Greene, who was lying on his stomach, felt that the bed under him exuded a strong smell of blood and stench, and he went straight into his nose, which made him extremely nauseous.

   But he can no longer do anything, the sound of the key opening the door suddenly sounded!
