Susan looked at the family full of warmth and happiness with emotion.
"Ouch! Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch, it hurts...!" Wayne accidentally fell into the courtyard wall of the officer's family.
"What are you doing?" Susan looked at him.
The previous rain and fog did not drift here, but because of the rain, Wayne fell and his face was covered with wet mud: "The damn wooden fence has the corners of my clothes hanging on it. This suit is indeed a bit longer.
It doesn't fit well." He got up from the ground, wiped the mud on his face with his sleeves and said, "What did you say? Of course we are implementing our plan."
The people in the house were enjoying family fun and did not hear the noise outside.
Susan climbed over the courtyard wall lightly and said, "Didn't you say you would find a place where no one is around and do it to him? But he is back home now."
"It doesn't matter, we have a chance." Wayne waved and walked to the window outside the house with his belt on his head.
At this time, people occasionally passed by on the street, but because it was completely dark, the light of the magic street lamp could not shine under the corners of other people's courtyards. If you didn't look carefully, it would be difficult to spot Wayne and the others.
Looking into the room through the cracks in the curtains, what could be seen was very limited. Wayne could only see two children laughing and eating cookies, but he could not see the officer and his wife.
Susan also saw the two children. She patted Wayne on the shoulder and asked quietly: "Don't you think...?"
Wayne said: "If his son and daughter are threatened, he will definitely give in."
Susan said: "Wouldn't it be too much to do this?"
Wayne said: "It doesn't matter, we don't really want to hurt them, we just need to rescue our companions."
Susan said: "Okay, then what are you going to do?"
At this time, several pedestrians passed by. Susan and Wayne watched the pedestrians pass by in the darkness by the window.
Waiting for them to pass by, Wayne said: "Still the old way."
In the house, the food has been prepared, including river mussels, hairy crabs, and some other delicacies. Perhaps because of the war, the officer's wife cooked a lot of delicious food, which made Wendu Zha standing outside the door.
The smell of food made my hungry stomach growl even more fiercely.
Wayne glanced at Susan, meaning to ask her if she was ready.
Susan nodded and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" asked the wife who was feeding her husband, an officer, crab claws.
"Madam, I am from the 17th Regiment. I have something to tell you and your husband." Wayne said.
The door was opened, and it was the wife who opened the door. She asked: "I can't even have a peaceful dinner. What's going on?"
"It's like this, it's about the group of prisoners who were escorted to the prison before." Susan looked at the officer in the room and asked: "The matter is a bit complicated, madam, can we go in and talk?"
The wife glanced at the two of them: "Okay, come in."
The room was not very big, but it was beautifully decorated. The two children and the officer were sitting around the dining table eating delicious food.
The officer also heard what Susan said, stood up and asked: "About those prisoners? What is it?"
Susan said: "It's like this, um, that..."
Wayne naturally moved towards the position of the two children, suddenly reached out, grabbed the little boy's arm, and lifted him up.
The incident happened so suddenly that neither the officer nor his wife expected it. While they were still in shock, Wayne's self-defense knife was already pressed against the boy's neck.
The boy was so frightened that he burst into tears.
"What are you doing?" the wife screamed, about to snatch her son away.
Wayne took two steps back and shouted: "Stop! If you take one more step forward, I will kill him!"
As expected, the wife stopped walking after drinking.
The officer held his daughter behind him. Seeing the scared look on the little girl's face, Susan couldn't bear it.
The officer asked angrily: "Who are you? Are you a coalition force? Or..."
"It's a mercenary." Wayne confronted the officer nervously and said, "If you do as we say, I promise not to hurt your son."
The officer asked: "What are you going to do?"
Wayne handed the little boy to Susan: "Take his son away and leave this place to me."
Susan hugged the little boy and ran out the door quickly.
"Where are you taking my son?" The officer's wife wanted to chase, but was blocked by Wayne with a knife.
Wayne shouted: "If you want to chase me, I swear, my partner will hurt your precious son. You don't want anything to happen to your child, right?"
"What on earth are you going to do?!" the officer asked.
"It's very simple." Wayne said: "My friends and brothers have been imprisoned by you. I want you to take me there and rescue them safely. As long as they are okay, my partners will save you."
My son was returned safely."
"No, it can't be done. Those prisoners have been handed over, and I have no authority to take care of them anymore." The officer looked at Wayne willingly: "Give my son back to me, I really can't help you."
Wayne looked at him and smiled nervously: "Hey, I believe you can find a way. You can definitely help me."
The wife grabbed the officer's clothes and looked at her husband pleadingly, with tears streaming down her face.
The officer couldn't bear to see his wife's expression and said, "What if you don't keep your promise? I...I don't believe you."
Wayne shook his head: "I'm sorry, officer. There is no room for negotiation. You must agree to us. Otherwise, today will be the day you and your son say goodbye forever."
The officer hesitated.
Wayne added: "Listen, we are just mercenaries from other places. We have no hatred against you. I just want my friends to be safe and I don't want to hurt anyone."
"Please," the wife said to her husband, an officer, with tears streaming down her face.
"Okay, okay." The officer finally said, "I promise you to try your best, but you must promise me not to hurt my son."
"Yes, I promise you."
The officer said: "I want you to swear."
"Okay, I swear." Wayne said: "As long as you help me rescue our friends, I and my partners will not harm your son."
The officer looked at his daughter, hugged his wife, patted her back, and said, "Let's go, we're going now."
Wayne changed the knife to his left hand: "Wait a minute." He walked to the dining table, took a few chicken spring rolls and took a bite: "Well, madam, your craftsmanship is really good. Let's go."
(Random talk: Speaking of knights, here are some of the more famous knights in the Western world. Of the three major knights in the Western world, the most famous is of course the 'Knights Templar', and the 'Knights Templar' is also known as the 'Knights Templar'.
Known as the 'Poor Knights of Christ and the Temple of Solomon', it was established during the First Crusade to protect pilgrims and was mainly composed of French knights; the Knights Hospitaller was also established during the First Crusade.
During the Second Crusade, it was established to protect the hospital institutions in Jerusalem; the Teutonic Knights, also known as the 'German Knights', was established during the Third Crusade.
In addition to the above three most famous knights, there are also the Knights of Santiago, the Knights of Calatva, the Knights of Alcantera, the Knights of Montesa, the Knights of the Golden Fleece, etc., which are more famous knights.
Regarding chivalry, it is very humble and romantic. Humility, honor, sacrifice, heroism, compassion, honesty, spirit, and justice are their virtues.)
