"Tina." When Lin Haoming saw it, he screamed in horror and ran over to see his sister's condition. But just when he reached Tina, Lin Haoming suddenly covered his heart, looking very uncomfortable, and then fell down directly.
Seeing the two people falling like this, Tess and Frank were frightened.
Tess even covered her mouth, looking completely in disbelief.
"Xiu Yi, Master Xiu Yi!" Gould came to Lin Haoming's side at this time and called Lin Haoming, but Lin Haoming was obviously out of breath, and even black blood was flowing out of the corner of his mouth.
"Poison! Mrs. Tess, you were just released this morning, but you poisoned Xiu Yi and Tina at night. You are so cruel. Someone come and arrest them." Gould saw Xiu Yi and Tina.
Tina was really dead and immediately gave the order.
Immediately, several strong men came over, grabbed the two people at once, and quickly tied them tightly with ropes.
"No, Gould, I didn't do it. I was in my room until Master Xiuyi asked me to eat...I..."
"Mrs. Tess, stop quibbling and come and take Madam and Master Frank down." Gould interrupted her and ordered expressionlessly.
Among the several strong men, one picked up a rag and stuffed it into Tess's mouth, while the other one who grabbed her smiled and stretched out his hand to touch her chest, and then couldn't help but said proudly: "That's really cool."
As expected of a noble lady, she is so comfortable."
"Okay, don't cause trouble, take the people down first." Gould saw this and frowned as a reminder.
After hearing this, the strong man restrained himself, pulled the crying Tess and the frightened Frank away.
The two people were quickly taken to a basement in the manor. When the two people were sent into the basement, they found that besides themselves, there was actually another person locked up here. It was not the old Vincent who should have died in the naval battle.
Who could it be.
It's just that the old Vincent is now completely destroyed, with scars all over his body, all his teeth are missing, and even three fingers are missing.
Tess was shocked when she saw this scene. She never imagined that her husband was actually beside her, but he turned out to be like this.
"Ah!" Tess and Frank were quickly tied to a pillar here by the strong man, and old Vincent seemed to have discovered something. Seeing this scene, he immediately screamed in pain.
"Master!" Tess looked at Vincent and shouted immediately when the rag was taken away from her mouth.
Vincent looked at Tess with tears streaming down his face. Soon he learned the news from Tess that Xiu Yi and Tina were dead, and his face turned pale.
"You know what's going on, think about it carefully, what to say later." At this time, the strong man blocked Tess's mouth again. It was obvious that old Vincent was locked up here for a purpose.
It took a while, but in fact it was almost midnight before Gould arrived in the basement below the utility room.
"Gould, you win." When old Vincent saw Gould appear, his face was already ashen.
"In that case, tell me, where is the thing?" Gould asked.
Old Vincent showed a rare smile and said: "Do you think I will tell you? It's impossible. If Frank sees me like this, will you let him go? Even if I die, I won't tell you."
your."
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill them? Xiuyi is not qualified to become a knight. For you, Frank is the key to the continuation of your family?" Gould became a little anxious when he heard this.
"Gould, I know your character very well. You are too cautious in what you do. You will not let go of anyone who may reveal secrets, including the few insiders you have roped in." Old Vincent sneered.
.
"Don't listen to him. I'm only one person. There are four of you. Are you still afraid of me?" Gould specifically signaled.
"Really? You are a quasi-knight. Not to mention the four of them, even eight of them may not be your opponent." Old Vincent sneered.
"You are struggling to your death. Are you willing to give up so much property of the Greer family?" Gould asked several big men.
"Of course not. We know what we are doing. Vincent, tell me quickly. Where are the treasures? If you don't tell me, I will cut off your son's fingers. Without the fingers, he will not be able to become a knight. The Gryll family
The glory will be completely cut off." One of the big men threatened fiercely.
"Hey!" Old Vincent just smiled and did not respond.
"I can let Frank go," Gould said.
"Don't lie to me!" Old Vincent didn't believe it at all.
"I can take you all out, let you watch Frank go, and then you hand over the things. Of course, the premise is that you write a letter saying that Frank is not your child, but that he was born to Tess with someone else.
and explain that if something happens to him, the family will let Xiu Yi inherit." Gould said.
After hearing this, old Vincent thought for a long time and finally agreed: "I can write it right away, but I need to leave now. I want to watch him cross the Redwood River."
"No problem." Gould agreed.
After mutual compromise, Vincent Sr. quickly wrote a letter as Gould requested and put his own fingerprint on it.
After putting away the letter, Gould quietly left the manor while it was dark. After walking for an hour, he arrived at a small river.
Gould had Frank untied and allowed Frank to cross the river and leave.
Tess cried hard but couldn't make a sound, and Frank was just a thirteen-year-old child who didn't know what to do. Under his father's order, he could only cross the river crying.
"Okay, I have fulfilled your promise, you hand over the things immediately, otherwise you know I have plenty of time to get the person back," Gould said.
"It's not here at all," said old Vincent.
"Where is that?" Gould frowned upon hearing this.
"In the original old house in the royal capital."
"There? There's no one there anymore, there's just a dilapidated house." Gould became furious when he heard it.
"So you think, if the Greer family is in such a state of decline, why isn't the palace in the royal capital sold?" Old Vincent asked.
After hearing this, Gould felt that what Vincent said this time was probably true, but he still warned: "You'd better not lie to me, otherwise I will have to catch Frank to vent my anger."
"Of course." Old Vincent affirmed.
"Gould, are we really going to the royal capital?" A big man hesitated at the thought of going to such a far place.
"It only takes more than three months to walk, are you afraid?" Gould asked rhetorically.
"No, it's just..."
"They are worried that now that their value has been used up, you can easily find opportunities to kill them on the road." Old Vincent suddenly sneered.
