Chapter 23 Chapter Eleven What Happened at the Door

Jana.Buxton did go, she opened the only barred door and went out.The sentry guarding the wide-angle mirror saw a young woman coming out of the factory, but did not recognize her.His instructions were to avoid unnecessary killing as much as possible, so he didn't intend to send the Hornets against her.There is a high wall between the factory and the square. The iron gates in the wall are usually closed, but since the war between the two sides, they have always been open. Jana.Buxton left in a state of extreme loss of sanity.She felt terrible that she was regarded as the cause of this disaster.But what if they're right?If she was Gary.What about the only spoils that Kiriel wanted in this war?In that case, any procrastination was a sin, and she blamed herself for being so indecisive.She walked towards the palace, close to the high wall illuminated by the factory's searchlights.

The merry lads on watch spotted her, but they did not think it necessary to use force against a helpless man, who, moreover, might be their accomplice. After walking some distance under the high wall, she went straight across the square, paying no attention to the group of jovial boys who were coming towards her.She has such great courage because no one can stop her.Only 20 meters away from the palace, two people came towards her. These two people let her go, even led her to the front of the palace, and opened the door for her.As soon as she crossed the threshold, the gate closed.From then on, she fell completely into the hands of Kiriel, and she could not expect anyone to help her.

Her appearance surprised the people in the palace.A black servant immediately took her to Gary.Take it from Kiliel.She followed the Negro down a few steps and down corridors into a brightly lit room.She immediately recognized that this was the Golden Luan Temple.At the table, covered with glasses and bottles, lay Gary.Kiliel, surrounded by eight hideous advisors sitting in a mess, drinking and having a good time. When the girl appeared at the door, the half-drunk group cried out in amazement.One among the besieged had dared to appear alone and suddenly before their eyes!Nothing could be more amazing.

Miss Morna!They yelled and rose from their chairs with a scrambling noise. Are you alone?Gary.Kyriel asked, glancing uneasily down the corridor. one person.Jana.Buxton replied tremblingly, but his tone was firm. Her feet were weak and she had to hold on to the door frame. The surprised people watched her silently for a long time, her appearance was too unexpected.Jana.Under these gazes, Buxton lost her self-confidence, and she even regretted it. Are you from there?Gary.Kiriel finally asked stammeringly, pointing in the direction of the factory. Yes. Why are you here? The tone was so obnoxious that those poor starving workers blamed their misfortune entirely on her fault.She thought that her self-sacrifice might not make their lot better, and it tormented her greatly.

I have come to surrender.she murmured. good!good!Gary.Kyriel sneered, then turned to his advisors, leaving us alone. Eight consultants staggered towards the door.Gary.Kiriel stopped them with signs and asked Zhanna: I will not ask you about Chu Mugeng, we have found his bones.What happened to the other guy? Chu Mugeng was not killed by us, Ranna replied.He was killed when the flying machine exploded, his companion was slightly injured, and the people in the factory took good care of him. What about aircraft? destroyed. Gary.Kiriel rubbed his hands together in satisfaction, and the advisors headed out.

So you have come to surrender?When they were alone together, Gary.Kiriel asked his captive, why did you surrender? For the people over there. Incomprehensible!exclaimed Kiriel sarcastically, then, are they at the end of their rope? Yes.Jeanna admitted, her eyes on the ground. Gary.In ecstasy, Kiriel filled a glass of wine and drank it down. go on!He said. You want to marry me, said Jeanne, flushing with shame, and I agree.But there is a condition, that is, to set others free. condition?Gary.Kiriel exclaimed in amazement, do you think you can save them?My dear!Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, I will seize the factory, including you.You don't need to come today, I can wait for another day.He stood up and walked towards her staggeringly, you are too confident to be my wife and you have to negotiate terms!ha!ha!As long as I want, you have to be my wife!No, so what if I don't agree to your terms?

You can die.she replied. die?Gary.Kiriel repeated.He was startled by this cold sentence, and he repeated it again, stroking his chin uncertainly.After a short pause, I cried again, and seemed to have a new idea: Well, I should be happy now depending on the situation tomorrow!He poured her a glass of wine, drink it! He drank one cup after another.About a quarter of an hour later, Gary.Kiliel started snoring. The girl regained control of the beast that killed her brother, and she could use him to kill George.Buxton's weapon sank into his chest.But what's the use?Wouldn't that destroy the last hope of saving those people?She came here for those people!

She pondered for a long time, her eyes staring at the sleeping Demon King.A sudden pain in her abdomen made her pale.It turned out that relentless hunger was tormenting her.She carefully opened the door through which the consultants came out, and saw leftovers on the table in the next room.She rushed to the table, grabbed a few of them casually, and ate them hungrily.Gradually the vitality returned from eating, the heart beat more vigorously, and physical and spiritual strength gradually returned to her. Feeling stronger, she went back into the hall, where Kiriel was still snoring, and she sat down across from him, waiting for him to wake up.

After a few minutes, Kirill turned over and something fell to the floor.Jana.Buxton bent over and picked up what had fallen out of Kiriel's pocket. It was a small key.She remembered Gary.Kiriel often left the throne room for a short time and entered a small door. How much she wanted to know what happened inside the small door!But now, here's the chance to satisfy her curiosity.What a temptation! She walked gently to the small door, inserted the key into the lock, and the door opened silently, revealing the stone steps leading to the basement.She closed the back door carefully, and walked down the stone steps, a dim lamp lighting the way ahead.

The stone steps led Jeanna to the basement, where she stopped hesitantly.A sentry sitting on the chair stood up immediately after seeing her, and Jeanna was relieved quickly: the sentry was not hostile to her, on the contrary, he leaned against the wall very politely, in order to let the late-night visitor Walking over, Janna understood that there was a reason for this sudden respect.She recognized the man as a black guard of the palace.The negro often saw her in the palace, and knew that she had prestige in front of the lord. She approached the locked door with firm steps, and put the key in the lock.This door opened like the previous one.At this time, she was in a long corridor.There were a total of twelve rooms on the left and right sides of the corridor, all but one of which had their doors open.Jana.Buxton glanced at the neighboring houses and said, to be precise, they were small dark rooms, reeking of mustiness.There was nothing in those rooms but a table and a cot.

Only one door was closed.Jeanna put the key in the lock a third time, and the door opened.The small room was pitch black, and nothing could be seen.After her eyes got used to the light in the room, she saw a vague shadow of a person and heard the even breathing of a sleeping person. There seems to be a supernatural power that makes Jeanna.Buxton had a premonition of a terrible discovery, and she felt weak and trembling, her heart pounding.She stood at the door, trying to look inside the room, but couldn't see anything.Finally, she remembered the light switch in the hallway by the door and turned it on. How suddenly, what a terrible scene greeted Jeanne.Buxton! Even if what she saw in this dungeon was anyone from the factory she had left not long ago, even if what she found here was her eldest brother George, who she was sure had been dead for ten years.Buxton, she wouldn't be so shocked! The sleeping person was awakened by the sudden light and sat up from the bed.His clothes were ragged, revealing his bruised flesh.He was as thin as a skeleton, moved his body with difficulty, and looked in the direction of the electric light with a pair of big terrified eyes.Neither the marks left by the long torture, nor the pitifully thin cheeks, nor the beard and unkempt hair could fool Jeanna.She immediately recognized the unfortunate prisoner by looking into Kexton's eyes. In the devil's basement of Blackrant she recognized men who had been in peaceful labor when they left England six months ago.This scrawny man, this tortured creature, was her second brother Robert.Louis.Buxton! Jana.Buxton was gripped by a superstitious dread.She stood there, unable to move, unable to speak. Louis!She cried out at last, and threw herself upon her poor brother.Louis murmured bewilderedly, "Janna, is that you?"is it you? They embraced each other and burst into tears. Jana!Louis finally said, how can you come here and save me? I'll tell you later, replied Jeanna, now about your situation, you tell me I can't tell you anything, Louis made a desperate gesture, I don't remember anything.On November 30th, I was suddenly knocked down in my office.When I woke up, my whole body was bound, my mouth was stuffed, and I was packed in some kind of box. They transferred me like luggage twenty times.Which country am I in now?I don't know I've been in this cell for four months and I've been whipped every day Yo!Louis!Louis!Jeanne exclaimed in agony, who is this executioner? This, worse, Louis said, you can't even guess, who could be so cruel.It was Louis who suddenly shut up. His hand pointed at something in the corridor, and there was an indescribable fear in his eyes. Jeanna looked towards the door, her face suddenly turned pale, and one hand immediately pulled out the weapon dug out of George's grave from her waist. Standing in front of them was Gary.Kiliel!
