Whispering Verse

Chapter 485: Cavendish

"Your Highness."

Xia De looked seriously at the princess in front of him, who looked at him with a reddish face.

"I want to tell you..."

He slammed forward and entered the room with Adelina in his arms.

But he didn't rush forward. While embracing the sixteen-year-old girl, he stepped hard, and the two turned back at the same time. Xia De crossed his hands behind the princess.

Boom!

Whoosh!

The gun in his right hand accurately hit the head of the man huddled in the corner on the right side. Although Xia De had never practiced shooting, he was too close to Xia De.

The four Rhodes cards in his left hand flew out. Under Xia De's deliberate control, the four cards did not exaggerate enough to directly cut the opponent's throat, but hit the opponent's wrist and finger on the trigger respectively.

There was another gunshot, although the trigger was still pulled by the enemy behind the door, but it lost its aim under the pain and did not hit anyone.

"There's one last one!"

The thumb of his right hand overwhelmed the hammer of Ruger's revolver. Shade's left hand was originally holding Adelina, but now as his body turned, his left hand went around behind Adelina to hold her right hand, making her spin After a circle, he came to his side.

This makes it easy to aim, and also allows you to block the last enemy's muzzle.

After turning around, he raised his gun to face the front. The third enemy who failed to deal with it at the first time did not shoot back in a short time. Instead, he pointed the gun at the head of the young maid and hid himself Behind the maid.

Although the man in the black hat was much larger than the maid, but with Shad's marksmanship, he really didn't have the confidence to hit the enemy with one shot.

Xia De looked at each other, pointed his right hand to the side, and pulled the trigger—

Boom!

Smoke came out of the muzzle of the gun, and the man holding his wrist behind the door was shot in the chest. He hit the wall backwards due to the force of the bullet. He raised his gun and wanted to shoot, but he didn't hold his own gun in his hand, and was knocked out by the plate bravely thrown by the maid who was close to him.

Xia De overwhelmed the hammer for the third time, looked at the man in front of him, and pointed down with his right hand.

[It's off, go down a little bit. Yes, it is here. 】

Boom!

The man behind the door leaned against the wall, clutching his chest, tilted his head, and fell slowly.

Xia De was still staring at the man in the black hat hiding behind the maid:

"Your Highness, please take your servants and leave here first."

Overwhelming the ram, he still looked forward but fired again at the right side, the body trembled, Xia De was preventing the opponent from pretending to be dead.

If everyone else leaves, the situation is easier to deal with with only one maid witnessing even if Shad uses the power of the Ring Warlock.

"No, no one can leave, or I'll shoot her!"

The man stared wide-eyed and gasped heavily, his eyes were bloodshot, and his face had a broken expression. When Xia De rushed in with Agelina in his arms, he didn't close the door, and the gunshots had already spread:

"Take it easy, friend, maybe we can talk, and look, I'm out of arms."

Xia De stared at him closely, and to show his sincerity, he let go of his right hand and let the revolver fall to the ground. For him, killing people with a gun is the most inefficient way.

"Also, throw away the cards on your body! I saw it just now! Your cards can kill!"

"No, I didn't kill people with cards just now."

Xia De did not deny this directly, put his hand into his pocket, took out a stack of cards, and handed it to the princess beside him.

"besides!"

The man hiding behind the maid said loudly.

He probably just wanted to try it out, but Xia De reached into another pocket and handed his spare cards to the princess.

In fact, he can only add thaumaturgy [treasure] to a deck of cards, and the other party really thinks too much.

"besides!"

The man was really prepared to see Xia De, and said again.

Xia De hesitated for a moment, unbuttoned his coat, and threw the [Gun of Kindness] pinned to his waist on the floor.

"It's really gone now."

He tried to speak as sincerely as possible, and said before the other party refuted:

"Get the princess out of here, you can take the two of us as hostages."

"No, no one can leave."

The man's hand holding the gun trembled a little, and Shad was very worried that he would accidentally pull the trigger of the Glass pocket single-shot pistol.

"Huh? MI6's operation with guns? Those people reselling arms and finally got into trouble?"

Although Xia De was surprised in his heart, he didn't show it. But the blond maid who was held hostage by him was really nervous. She bit her lip and closed her eyes, desperately tilting her head away from the gun.

There were already footsteps outside the door, and the sound of the opera also stopped after the second gunshot. Xia De knew that he could not lose:

"Adelina, take your servant and leave."

Xia De said again, and then felt the sixteen-year-old princess standing behind him:

"Mr. Hamilton, I'm a little scared."

She hid herself completely behind Xia De, dragged Xia De's clothes and said this in a loud voice. Moreover, under her voice, Xia De actually heard the click of a gun safety being opened.

His eyes continued to meet the man with the gun:

"Don't be afraid, I will protect..."

Boom!

A gunshot sounded from behind, hitting the man in the black hat precisely between the eyebrows.

The maid screamed and ran away from the corpse, the man's eyes widened, and before he could leave his last words, the corpse fell heavily on the ground.

"this......"

Shad turned and looked back, Adelina Cavendish was hiding behind him, with a bright smile on her face, holding a golden pocket lady pistol with a smoking muzzle in her hand.

The trigger of the pistol appears to be of jeweled material, and the body of the gun may be gold-plated. This highly decorative small pistol for ladies can only store three bullets, including the one pressed into the barrel in advance. It is a weapon used by women in the upper class for self-defense.

Adelina smiled shyly at Xia De, and then lifted her skirt very unladyishly, revealing the black leather shoes and white stockings under the skirt.

Gone is the garter on the right, and she puts the gun back in the small leather gun pouch hanging from the white lace leg loop on the left:

"Knight, it's a good thing you asked for my garter. When I reached into my skirt to get the garter, I was just able to take out the gun from the gun pocket and hide it in my sleeve."

She put down her skirt and looked up at Xia De. The maids were running around, calling for others. People outside the door broke in, looking at the messy and tragic scene in the room in surprise.

On the red carpet in the center of the room, sixteen-year-old Agelina Cavendish was smiling up at Shad. That smile was almost the same as that of Galina Cavendish and Rezia Cavendish. Xu completely overlaps:

"Knight, tell me quickly, how did you throw out the cards as a weapon? Oh, that scene just now was really cool."

"I......"

Xia De took his own cards from her hand with some astonishment:

"It's not a steam bomb it's a pistol... The Cavendish girls are amazing."

(Mia is running...)

Half an hour later, the opera house was surrounded by the police at Ridwich Field and MI6 agents. Several high-power gas lamps were evenly distributed around the opera house, making the entire Tobysk Grand Opera House look like a From night to day.

Outside the opera house, the royal attendants surrounded the carriage, in which sat the two princesses and Shad.

Rezia, who was wearing a fiery red dress, held her forehead, and already knew what happened tonight from Xia De's description. And when they stay here, they have to wait for MI6 to inquire about the specific situation before they can leave.

"So what's going on? Is it Gray Gloves acting again this time?"

Shade still didn't understand.

"No, no, not gray gloves."

Rezia looked like she had a headache:

"It still has to do with my brother, Sachs Cavendish."

"Hasn't he already been arrested?"

"But his henchmen are still there."

Agelina said that after Rezia appeared, she has been acting very well, as if she was afraid of Rezia.

"Yes, some people's interests are tied to Sachs Cavendish. Now that I'm back in Tobesk, my father's sentence on my brother is about to begin, and some people want to fight to the death."

Rezia sighed:

"Although there were no special marks on the three of them just now, and the firearms they used were MI6's standard weapons, there are not many people who will be forced to use this method. We will investigate clearly."

Xia De noticed that Rezia had been calling her brother by his first name.

It's not that Adelina went out without a guard, but her guards were not in the box on the third floor with her, but guarded in other places on the third floor and downstairs. And the blood that Xia De saw just now was the blood of those guards who were killed.

But even if he didn't show up, Adelina would be in no danger. In addition to the princess herself carrying a small pistol, there are also a large number of Tobesk high-level military officers sitting in the auditorium downstairs in the opera house tonight. It is said that it is a collective entertainment organized by Tobesk's veterans club.

In fact, at the same time as the confrontation on the third floor, the bodies of the killed princess guards had already been discovered, so this less rigorous kidnapping operation was doomed to fail.

Because the royal family is involved, and there are guns from MI6, this matter will be led by MI6 and investigated together with the police at Ridwich Field. Shad, as a key person, is also being questioned, but it is difficult for him to explain why he is here tonight.

But fortunately, before Director An Luosi appeared, Agelina proposed that she invited Shad to watch the play together tonight. Rezia glanced at her, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything, but bent over, and walked from her sister to Xia De on the opposite side:

"Really, tonight is the first time we met in Tobesk. I chose the skirt specially, and I planned to give you a surprise."

Rezia's dress tonight is indeed beautiful, and Xia De has already praised her when they met just now.

"I don't think we'll have time to be alone tonight."

She said in front of her sister, her beautiful eyes met Xia De's. It was like Dorothy's eyes, but not quite the same.

"Xia De, Adelina and I will return directly to the Yodel Palace in a while. I think the next time we meet, we can only wait for my mother's birthday party next Wednesday. You must come."

Saying that, Rezia hugged Xia De, and let him go after a while.

Xia De smelled the perfume on Leiziya's body. It seemed that she really made a lot of preparations for meeting Xia De for the first time after returning.

"Really, this kind of thing happened unexpectedly."

Speaking dissatisfied, Leiziya looked at her younger sister again, who looked very cute:

"Sister Leizia, I'm sorry, I shouldn't mention this at this time, but I heard that Mr. Hamilton and Aunt Galina..."

"Oh, that woman."

Rezia's attitude towards Miss Galina is still the same as usual, she shook her head:

"Adelina, you are so serious, why did you go to the south of the city to watch an opera at such a late hour?"

She showed the attitude of being an older sister, and the little princess didn't dare to speak immediately, but Xia De felt that she must be saying that her older sister came here to meet the man so late.

"Xia De~lightnovelpub.net~ Adelina and I have a very good relationship, you can trust her."

Rezia said to Xia De again, but did not explain the meaning:

"In the future, if you can't find me, you won't be able to find much...it's the same with Agelina."

"Yes, Mr. Hamilton, I will do my best to help you."

The sixteen-year-old princess raised her head and smiled at Xia De.

The sound of talking from outside was that Mr. An Luosi had arrived, and he was asking the guards brought by Leizia and the police who arrived in advance to understand the situation. Only then did Xia De think of something, and took out the garter in his pocket:

"His Royal Highness Adelina, I really offended you just now, I will return this to you."

It wasn't good to take out the garter in front of Rezia, but it would be even worse to take it home. Besides, Shad didn't want Adelina to think he was a garter collector.
