Between life and death [unlimited]

Jiang Xun tried to push the door in front of him again, but the feeling of resistance from his palm was enough to prove that it was not his illusion just now.

Although there was no bright lock hanging on the outside of this door, someone did lock it from the inside.

Seeing such a scene, the players immediately had the same thought in their hearts.Everyone looked at each other and looked at each other, as if they all thought of being together——

There might be something wrong with the "absence of duty" security guard Simo.You must know that when the players came in, this school had just started classes.

Teacher Lina and the cleaner Spark, who had been standing next to Jiang Shang, seemed not to have expected this situation either.

After they saw that Jiang Xun couldn't open the door, Lina asked in a low voice, "...Is Seamo not in the room now?"

Her tone also sounded full of doubts: "It shouldn't be... I just saw Seamus come to work..."

When the players heard what Lena said, James' face straightened, and he immediately asked, "Are you sure you saw Seamus come to work this morning?"

"I'm sure. Besides, he goes to work at about the same time every day, just after eight o'clock. But why is he not in the house now... No one asked him to do other work."

Spark next to him was also unclear.Although he had been staying in the backyard before, it was obvious that he didn't know where Seamus had gone at the moment.

So, James immediately turned his head and said to the others: "Everyone check around immediately! See where that Seamus ran to. The school just started working when we came here. He shouldn't have gone too far!"

After Lanchester and others took the order, they immediately took action.Fortunately, the area of ​​this aristocratic school is not very large, and the four people can just be responsible for investigating the playground in front of the teaching building and the garden at the back, trying to find the Seamo who "leaved without authorization".

It just so happened that Jiang Lai was responsible for the first and second floors of the teaching building, as well as near the garden.I don’t know if it’s because of the traditional customs here. In the back garden of this noble school and the castle estate of Blades, almost all of them are planted in large clusters of dark pink and bright red single plants. flowers.

This kind of flower, which is native to Europe, has a nice Chinese name "Poppy".Jiang Lai also clearly remembered that he had clearly seen in the Blydes Manor just now, those "evil flowers" that belonged to the same family as it - poppies hidden in the large clusters of poppies.

Jiang Shuang may not be familiar with poppies, but he has specially screened and trained poppies, a plant that can be made into drugs.He looked at these bright red flowers and thought in his heart: It seems that the water of the Blades family is deeper than the players imagined.

"Jiang Shang, did you find Seamo in the teaching building?" The temporary team partner with Jiang Shang was Shire, the Silver Knight, who was in charge of inspecting the third and fourth floors of the teaching building.

After Charles hurried down the stairs, he saw Jiang Lai standing in the middle of the hall on the first floor of the teaching building.The teaching building is transparent on both sides, with gates installed on the front and back, so Jiang Lie's front at this time is just facing the back door of the teaching building leading to the garden.

Jiang Lai turned around and said coldly to Xia Er: "Not yet."

Against the background of the crowd of poppies, Jiang Lai's cool and handsome face is not compared with the bright colors behind him, it looks dull, on the contrary, these two conflicting colors appear behind the same picture, he The icy beauty of the whole body penetrated into the bone marrow, like the snow lotus in the Tianshan Mountains.

Recalling the first time he saw Jiang Xun, Charles sighed in his heart at that time: "This time, the leader recruited a person who confuses all living beings..."

However, Shire's sexual orientation is normal, so even after seeing the beautiful scenery in front of him, he was only surprised for a moment, and then he returned to normal.He asked Jiang Xun again: "Tell me, this Seamo...is he not in school anymore?"

If Seamus was really one of those who kidnapped Jacques, he might have absconded out of fear when he saw the players coming to the campus again this morning.

But after Jiang Lai heard the words, he shook his head at Shire and said, "Not necessarily." In fact, he wanted to say in his heart that he felt that the probability of this Seamo being the kidnapper was very low.

Maybe because James didn't come with them yesterday, James didn't know that Jiang Xun and the others had already asked Seamo once yesterday.

I don't know if it's out of intuition or because of the long-term relationship with Si Yufeng, but now Jiang Xun is no longer as dizzy when looking at the plot of the mission as he was when he first entered the mission.He felt that if the kidnappers were really Seamus, then Seamo had already talked to them once yesterday, even if he saw them again today, why bother to run away "unnecessarily"?Doesn't this seem like a guilty conscience?

However, Jiang Lai never revealed his thoughts to the other three, because he didn't know if they would agree with him, so he simply kept silent.

Say more and make more mistakes, if you don't say it, you will definitely not make mistakes.

Jiang Xun knew this truth well since he was a child, so after leaving Si Yufeng and the others to join the Divine Blessing Knights, he simply returned to his original "Buddhist" nature.

"Since Seamus was not found here, let's go to Lanchester and James first." Charles suggested to him.

Jiang Xun nodded: "Okay."

Just when the two were about to go out from the main entrance of the teaching building, out of the corner of Jiang Yu's eyes, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure slowly pacing from the corridor on the right hand side - it was the security guard that the three players had seen last night Simo!

Before Jiang Lai could react, Charles rushed up excitedly, blocked Seamo in a corner, and threatened in a low voice, "Say! Where did you go just now?"

Simo recognized the players who came to him yesterday at a glance, but he was frightened by this gangster-like robbery, and replied with a look of panic, "This...what's wrong?"

"Stop talking nonsense, talk quickly! What did you do just now?!" Charles repeated his question again.

"I, I just had a sudden stomachache in the morning, and then I went to the toilet..." Seamus stretched out his finger, pointing weakly at the "Men's Restroom" sign behind the two of them.Coincidentally, as soon as he finished speaking, there was another series of thunderous roars in his stomach.

"Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr..."

Shire and Jiang Xun: "..."

Moreover, Simo's face immediately turned into an unbearable cyan purple color, not as if he was lying, "Masters, my lords...can you excuse me and let me go to the toilet again... "

Judging by his expression, he shouldn't be lying.So upon hearing this sentence, both Xia Er and Jiang Lie made room for him neatly, and watched Simo rush to the toilet again.

Charles asked: "Jiang Shui, didn't you check the bathroom carefully just now?"

The killer who will definitely be delayed by cleanliness in the future: "No..."

When Seamus came out of the bathroom again, he felt quite refreshed.At this time, Lanchester and James also came back from the outside, and the four players asked Seamus some questions again.

"When the back door opened last night, are you sure you didn't see anyone going in and out of the back door?" Although James usually behaves like a gentleman, but because he has been with Jiang Ke for a long time, he actually released a kind of intolerance during the interrogation. The coercion that people ignore, "Are you sure you didn't see anyone else when Spark was pretending to be trash?"

Seamus really seemed to be intimidated.With a mournful face, he said repeatedly: "My lord... I have already told the other three adults last night... I really didn't see anyone going in or out of the back door, that kid Jacques... oh, no, Jacques Young master, I also recognize him. He is so tall, even if he was knocked unconscious and put in a garbage bag, I would definitely be able to recognize him from the outside of the bag... The person who did such a thing as kidnapping..."

"And apart from you, Master Blades has sent other people to ask us before..."

The players knew about what Seamo said.After all, it was about the disappearance of the young master Jacques. A big family like Blades would definitely call on many policemen from within the family and even from the group to investigate in secret.

The players are just one of the ordinary investigators who are not taken seriously.Seeing Simo's expression of grievance that almost fell to the ground, everyone didn't seem to be faking it, so they believed his explanation for the time being.

"Wait, you mean you knew Jacques before?" Lanchester immediately grasped the key point in his words, and couldn't help but cast a puzzled look at Seamus again, "And from what you mean, it feels like you should have known Jacques before." Know each other?"

But how could an ordinary school security guard have the chance to meet the youngest son of the local prominent family, the Blades family?

"This..." Simo realized that he had slipped his mouth just now, and he noticed the unfriendly eyes from James and others, so he had no choice but to admit: "We know each other...he often comes to the back Playing in the garden, coming and going, we will be familiar with it."

Upon hearing this, Lanchester continued to ask: "Then do you usually see Jacques getting close to anyone? For example, other employees, or students." After thinking about it, he added: "Don't Trying to hide it from us, this clue may be important to find Jacques..."

Maybe because he sensed the seriousness of Lanchester's words, in the next second, Seamus really told him everything he knew.

"I often see Master Jacques, and another Master Leon, coming to the back garden together... But usually they only get together when there is no one around, and once a classmate comes over, they will immediately separate..."

Jiang Lai quickly mobilized the memory in his mind, and suddenly remembered that the "young master" in Seamo's mouth was the youngest son of the Anhart family from the rival family of Blades—but his identity with Jacques was not the same. It's the same, because this Leon is the illegitimate son of old Anhartle, and his position in his family is rather awkward.

But I didn't expect that the two youngest sons of the family who have old enemies and never get in touch with each other will get so close at school.It's just that I don't know what kind of mentality that Leon is holding to make friends with Jacques.

"...If I recall it this way, I also saw Master Jacques and Master Leon coming to the garden at noon yesterday." Simo recalled: "And it seems that after that, only Master Leon returned to teaching building……"

This sudden news immediately stirred up waves in the hearts of the players.Is it possible that Jacques was kidnapped by this "son of the enemy" at noon?

"Are you sure you only saw Leon go back, but not Jacques?"

"If it was Master Jacques who went to the garden with Master Leon at noon, then I can almost be sure..."

Seeing the terrified look on Seamus' face, James didn't stop, but continued to ask, "Have you told anyone else about this news?"

"Not yet..." Seamus replied honestly.He thought in his heart: Others did not ask such detailed questions as these people in front of him.

Time was running out, and the players immediately went to Teacher Lina to ask Leon's classroom at this time.

As a result, when everyone came to the classroom where Leon should have been, Teacher Lina failed to find Leon among the students in class.

"Leon, this class may be skipped." Teacher Lina peeped at the gradually gloomy faces of everyone, and said quickly: "But I may know where he went back..."

"You know? Where is he now?"

"Master Anhart caught Leon who skipped class in a restaurant of his family before, and he specifically told us not to let him skip class, but...you know, we can't say too much to these children .I guess he's supposed to be there now, he seems to go there every time he skips class..."

After asking the specific address of the restaurant, the four players hurried back to the off-road vehicle, stepped on the gas pedal to the bottom, and roared like a gust of wind to the German restaurant not far away .

After everyone rushed to the restaurant, they found that there were many security guards in black at the entrance of the restaurant.But they still saw the little boy with bright red hair who was about the same age as Jacques in the interior of the restaurant where there were not many people.

Charles was afraid that four people going in together would cause suspicion, so he let them all stay in the car and walked over alone.

After entering the restaurant, he walked up to Leon who was sitting there alone with a smile, and asked politely, "Excuse me, are you Leon Anhalter?"

Hearing this, Leon raised his head and looked at Charles strangely, and replied cautiously: "I am Leon, are you...?"

"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is—" Charles still kept his smile, did not reveal the information that he was from the Blades family, and tentatively said to him: "I think I should see You. You are familiar with Master Jacques of the Blades family, aren't you?"

When Charles asked these words, it was more like throwing a brick to attract jade, and at the same time, it was to carefully distinguish Leon after hearing it.The expression that might be shown on his face at the first moment - if the kidnapping of Jacques was related to him, Leon would definitely have a different expression on his face.

"I do not know what you're talking about!"

There was a flash of panic in Leon's eyes, but he still pretended to be calm, and repeatedly denied: "I don't know that child from the Blades family at all..."

"But I heard someone say that you often go to the garden behind the school together..."

"How is it possible?!" Leon cried out: "Who said this! It's purely a rumor. Jacques and I don't know each other at all. Our two families have enmity! How could I know him well..."

He shouted at Charles again: "Who the hell are you? If you talk nonsense again, I'll call the security outside!"

Before Shire could say anything, the young and energetic child started yelling at the security guard outside the restaurant: "Come on! A strange person has broken in here! Help them throw me out!" !"

"No..." Charles didn't react just now, and he didn't expect Leon to yell like that directly, and it was too late when he wanted to cover Leon's mouth again.

The security guards at the door rushed in when they heard Leon's shout.Seeing the scene surrounded by a crowd in front of him like a wall of people, Charles had no choice but to raise his hands, and smiled awkwardly at Leon: "I really don't mean anything... Leon, you said you did this What……"

Leon made a face at Charles, but didn't make any answer.He hid behind those vicious bodyguards, and his eyes seemed to be full of contempt—as if he was saying, let you, an unlucky ghost, see how powerful our Anhart family is!

The people staying in the car naturally saw the upheaval that just happened in the restaurant.

In the blink of an eye, Charles was actually blocked by the opponent.Seeing Leon's uncooperative attitude, James couldn't stand it.

It may also be that he has been with Jiang Ke for a long time, and his way of doing things also pursues the ultimate "vigorous and resolute".

"How dare you bully my knights..." Known for protecting his weaknesses, if it weren't for the presence of others, his back molars would have been bitten by him: "You bully the few, right? I also want you to taste the taste of fear..."

So, James didn't discuss with the other two, but just opened the door and got out of the car very neatly, leaving Lanchester and Jiang Lai in the car to watch him go straight into the room that was already surrounded by a large number of security guards. Dining room.

"James!" It was too late for Lanchester to stop him.

He had no choice but to say to Jiang Lai: "Let's go, let's go save Shire too... Otherwise, it will be impossible to end in a while..."

After rushing into the small restaurant, James seemed to turn a blind eye to the security guards in black.He stood directly in front of those security guards, and pulled Charles behind him without hesitation.

Leon and the security guards obviously didn't expect that Charles would have such a rampant partner.Leon also immediately ordered the security guards: "Take them both down for me! Two people dare to provoke our Anhart family!"

When Jiang Shang and Lanchester entered the restaurant, they just heard Leon's words.Lanchester suddenly said in a low voice: "It's over, it's over, it's still a step late... God, this time the 'active volcano' is about to erupt again..."

Just when Jiang Lai was wondering what Lanchester meant by "volcano", he looked up the next second and saw James flipping off the khaki trench coat with a stand-up collar on his body. Like those action stars in the movie, he pulled out the light rifle that he had put away earlier from his arms very chicly and handsomely.

Then, without blinking his eyes, he squeezed the trigger, raised his hand and fired several shots towards the ceiling.

"Bang bang bang!"

The sound of bullets being ejected was deafening, and the dust and lampshade fragments that were shot down from the ceiling instantly hit everyone's heads overwhelmingly.

In the audience, only James was left standing, a string of fire dragons erupted from his muzzle, and Jiang Xun finally understood what Lanchester was referring to as an "active volcano"...

It's just that he didn't expect that James, who was usually such a gentleman, would turn into such a terrifying appearance when he got angry.

Because the group of security guards were not carrying weapons, after James shot, they were immediately frightened and ran around with their heads in their hands.

After the gunshots stopped, Jiang Xun hadn't recovered yet, and then he saw James dragging Shire towards them.

"Let's go first! We'll talk about other things later!"
