She saw a rubber boat, and there seemed to be a few sealed packages of food on board, and on the boat was Mercury Constantine wearing a life jacket!Constantine's hair was also wet all over, and a lock of his hair stuck to his forehead, making him look even more fierce, but he held a small pistol in his hand, pointing at the two of them. When Magnolia saw the submarine explode, she thought Mercury was dead too. However, at this moment, she realized that it was not the case! Mercury didn't allow others to escape, but he himself escaped from the escape tube, and he also brought a rubber boat and food. The tin cans contained clear water.

Mercury Constantine is a cruel person, Magnolia knows it, but she never thought that he would be so cruel!For a while, Magnolia couldn't say a word. Sadura said: Constantine, I admit defeat. It's too late.Mercury said coldly, and lifted the pistol in his hand slightly upwards. What will happen if you can't complete the mission the sun gave you?Moreover, I have agreed to your request.Sadura said.On the one hand, he bumped the magnolia with his elbow. Magnolia immediately understood Sadura's intention. The gun in Constantine's hand lowered a little. Well, I only want you, not Magnolia, I want to watch her be devoured by tiger sharks in the Indian Ocean!Mercury said harshly, obviously he hated Magnolia to the extreme.

Magnolia scolded mercilessly: Sadura, you spineless thing, you Sadura pushed away the magnolia and swam forward. Magnolia turned her head and swam out in the opposite direction, but she swam about five yards and then dived immediately. As soon as Magnolia dived, Mercury Konstantin was already alarmed.The gun in his hand rang, three times in a row. Three jets of water flew up above the surface of the sea, and Magnolia was not injured.Because Magnolia has dived more than fifteen feet.It was out of range of the pistol in the water. She swam forward at the fastest speed in the water, and then he rose up suddenly, put his head on the rubber boat, pushed hard with both hands, and the rubber boat was overturned.

The rubber boat flipped over, and Mercury danced and fell down. At that time, Sadura happened to come to the side of the rubber boat.Sadura raised his fist, aimed at Mercury's jaw, and punched it! Constantine couldn't bear that blow, because it was Sadura's blow that combined hatred and hatred. The food fell down and weighed on his head. Like an axe, Mercury plunged straight into the water and sank. The magnolia rose up from the water, and Sadura shouted: "It's a success!" Quick grabs of food and canned water, we depend on them to keep us alive.Magnolia brushed her hair and dived into the water again.

When she came up from the bottom of the water again, she was holding seven or eight cans of food in her hands. She pushed her head hard, straightened the rubber boat, and put the things in her hands into the boat. Both she and Sadura dived into the water five or six times.When there was nothing to salvage, they went to the rubber boat together to wash out the water in the boat. It was at this time.They heard the cry of Mercury Constantine, and Constantine shouted: Please save me!Please save me!Sadula and Mulanhua followed the sound.Mercury Constantine was around thirteen or fourteen yards, on his brow.With blood scoured down, he tried his best to float to the surface, but his body sank more and more.

The cry he made was shrill and hasty. Obviously, if Mulanhua and Sadura did not help, he would surely drown in the sea. Hmph, Sadura sneered: Do you have today too?Sorry, it's full! Please save me, Mercury gasps: Save me in the dinghy.You can't just ignore death. Mr. Mercury, Mulanhua said coldly: Where are the dozens of Black Dragon Party members in that submarine?Can they get escape treatment in an emergency?Do you think of them? Constantine's face.Showing a look of extreme panic and panic, he said: Are you guys going to save me? No!Sadura answered firmly. Constantine's body.It sank a little further, and he had to struggle hard to keep his mouth out of the water and allow him to speak.

You, he said angrily, you don't have to.You saved me, and I can report all the secrets of the Black Dragon Party to you so that you can make great achievements. Mr Mercury.You are a very despicable traitor.Sadura reprimanded coldly. I want to correct my evil and return to the right.You must save me, you must save a man who is ready to be converted!Mercury was almost screaming at the top of his lungs, his original noble demeanor and contrived voice had gone to nowhere. Alas, Magnolia sighed: what he said makes sense, we have to save a person who has abandoned evil and returned to righteousness.

Miss Mu!Sadura immediately said loudly: Do you think that a criminal like him will turn from evil to righteousness?He just wants us to save him and then harm us. Magnolia looked at Mercury Constantine who was gradually sinking into the water, and said: You are right, but since he has made such a gesture, we have to give him a chance. Alas, Sadura also sighed: Miss Mu, you are smarter and more talented than me. If there is any disagreement between us, I will take your opinion as my basis. Magnolia grabbed a ball of rope and threw it towards Mercury. Mercury stretched out his hand several times before he grabbed the ball of rope and slowly moved closer to the rubber boat.

He grabbed the rubber boat with both hands, floated up, and boarded the boat, still panting continuously. Magnolia grabbed a jar of water, dug two holes, and brought it in front of him. He raised his head and drank continuously. When he drank half of it, Sadura snatched it away. , said: We don't know how long we will be drifting at sea, fresh water will be the most precious thing, we must not drink recklessly.Mercury wiped his mouth with his hand, and although the panic expression on his face was still there, it had subsided a lot. We won't be adrift for long.he murmured. He said this in a low voice, but both Mulanhua and Sadula had already heard it.

What do you mean by that?Magnolia immediately asked. nothing?Mercury looked a little flustered. snort!Sadura sneered: Don't forget that it is easy for us to push you into the sea now! Mercury turns very pale: I mean our food and water won't keep us adrift on the surface for long. So why don't you pack a little extra when you're escaping alone?Magnolia asked. I don't have time to prepare. Both Mulanhua and Sadula could hear that Mercury was hiding something in what he said, but they knew that the cunning Mercury would never tell what he concealed. The two looked at each other, and Mulanhua smiled and said: Mr. Mercury, just now you promised to change your ways and reveal all the inside story of the Black Dragon Party to us, didn't you?

Mercury seemed to have completely forgotten about it, he called out and said: Yes, yes, I said so. Now is the time for you to make it happen.Magnolia's voice became very serious. it's here?Mercury shook his head: Let's talk about it after we are rescued. No, here, right now!Magnolia ordered firmly. Say it!Sadura grabbed Mercury's shoulders with both hands, and shook violently, even the rubber boat swung away. Well, I said, the leader of the Black Dragon Party is the sun. Who is the sun? I don't know, although I am Mercury, the closest to the sun, but I have never seen him The second time, he was an old woman.The third time, it was a middle-aged man, which was the result of extremely brilliant makeup skills.No one in the party can know who the sun is? OK, so if you ask to see the sun, how do you communicate with him?Magnolia asked. The Mercury hesitated. Sadura pushed him, and his upper body was out of the rubber boat. I said, we first put an ad in the Arab Times and he saw it.will contact us. Joke, if you guys have something urgent? Let's make a call. What number, where is the phone number. It's Bacheng, I told you the phone number now, would you believe it? Bacheng, the capital of our nation!Sadura said angrily: That is to say, your headquarters is located in Bacheng, the capital of my country? Mercury closed his mouth and stopped talking. Sadura slapped Mercury on the face angrily, and said: You don't even want to answer this most common question, so what are you talking about? Mr. Sadura!Mercury caressed his face and said fiercely: I will remember your palm. You should even more remember what you said when you were immersed in the water just now.This palm is just one ten-thousandth of my repayment for the pain you inflicted on me!what's your name? Mercury turned his head, Sadura's blood was very solemn, and said: Miss Mu, we shouldn't keep him on the rubber boat anymore! Magnolia groaned, Mercury stood up suddenly, Magnolia thought he was going to sneak attack, and quickly stretched out his foot to hook, Mercury fell down, he pointed to the sky and said: The savior is here, the savior is here! At this moment, Mulanhua and Sadula also heard the sound of the rolling machine. They raised their heads together and saw a silver-gray seaplane hovering above them. They could clearly see that the emblem on the wing indicated that this seaplane belonged to a neutral country. Mulanhua and Sadura both let out a sigh of relief. For a moment, they were all immersed in the joy of being rescued, but they never thought why the savior came so quickly. The seaplane got lower and lower, and finally stopped on the surface of the sea, gliding towards their rubber boat, passed their rubber boat seventy or eighty yards, and stopped. The door of the engine room opened, and a speedboat was hoisted down. Two people in dark blue uniforms also walked along the long aluminum ladder to the speedboat, and the motors slapped.The speedboat quickly arrived in front of their rubber boat, Sadura stood up first, and said: I am the Minister of the Interior of a certain country, thank you for your rescue. The two men in blue uniforms said very politely: Mr. Minister, please. Sadula and Mulan got on the speedboat one after another, Mercury also ran over, and the speedboat immediately returned to the side of the seaplane. There was a very strange-looking European standing at the cabin door. This kind of smile makes people know at a glance that his character is extremely cruel, and he seems to be still above Constantine. He was also wearing that blue uniform. Sadura walked in the front and climbed up the long aluminum ladder. The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and said: Welcome, welcome.One side made room for Sadura to enter the cabin. Magnolia followed behind, and when she came to the middle-aged man, the middle-aged man also said: Welcome, welcome. At this moment, Mulan saw that the middle-aged man had an Iron Cross hanging on his lapel. It was something from the period when Hitler ruled Germany. It can be said to be an ugly symbol! However, the middle-aged man hung it on his lapel. Could the middle-aged man be a rescue team member from a neutral country? Magnolia is a person with an extremely flexible mind. When she saw the Iron Cross hanging on the man's lapel, she immediately felt that something was wrong. She also immediately remembered that Mercury Constantine had said that they would not drift on the sea for long. She even remembered that after they rescued Mercury on the rubber boat, Mercury's attitude was very arrogant, as if he had nothing to fear. It occurred to her, too, that the seaplane had come in too timely, suspiciously timely. Summarizing all this, it shows one point: that seaplane belongs to the Black Dragon Party, and the middle-aged man standing at the door of the cabin must be one of the top ten leaders of the Black Dragon Party, and this seaplane will appear in such a timely manner. Possibly that's what Mercury called before escaping the submarine! It took less than a second for Mulan to think of this. In that very short time, she had already made a decision. She stood beside the middle-aged man, stretched out her hand, and said, "Thank you for coming in time." The middle-aged man obviously did not expect that in such a short period of time, Mulanhua had already guessed his true identity, and he also stretched out his hand with a malicious smile on his face. The two shook hands. To the middle-aged man, it was just a polite shake, but to Mulan, it was a shake that was well prepared! As soon as the two held hands, Mulanhua's body turned abruptly to one side, her arms retracted, and she swung out violently. This is a bull throw in judo.If it was on land, then Magnolia could only throw the opponent to the ground at most. But now it's different, now it's at the hatch of the seaplane! When Magnolia fell hard, the middle-aged man staggered and fell outwards.Immediately, the magnolia flower mercilessly stepped on his head again, stomping heavily. At the same time, he leaned over and nimbly put a German-made large-caliber military pistol on the middle-aged man's waist.Pulled out. The middle-aged man fell down and just hit Mercury who was climbing up on the long aluminum ladder. The two of them fell into the sea together. Two men in blue uniforms. come over!she ordered. The change that happened in this instant made De Sadura also baffled. Those two people walked over with their hands raised, and as soon as Mulanhua waited for them to come to her, she quickly disarmed them, threw the guns to Sadura, and kicked the two people one by one. Also kicked into the sea! She pressed a switch next to the door, the long aluminum ladder retracted, and the door closed.The door leading from the cabin to the cockpit was opened at this moment, and a pilot poked his head out. As soon as the pilot saw Mulanhua's gun pointed at him, he froze for a while, and wanted to close the door immediately, but Sadura leaped up and dragged the pilot out. Magnolia opened the door again and dragged the pilot out. On the surface of the sea, there are six people, including Mercury, who are struggling up and down.Shui Lanhua said coldly: "Swim away quickly, the storm when the plane starts will sweep you to the bottom of the sea!" All the people swam out desperately, Mulan closed the door again, looking back, Sadura was already sitting in the driver's seat. When Sadura came from the Arabian East, he flew the plane by himself, and he naturally knew how to fly the seaplane. The two engines roared, causing two deep eddies on the sea surface. The plane began to rush forward, quickly left the sea surface, and flew into the air. The two of them looked down together, and they could still see those people swimming towards the speedboat and rubber boat on the surface of the sea. Miss Mu, when the plane is getting higher and higher.Only now did Sadura begin to speak: I didn't realize until now that this plane came so strangely, it was too coincidental, and of course it was the plane of the Black Dragon Party.But how do you know that as soon as you get on the plane? Sadura's language is full of admiration. Oh, that's nothing, Magnolia's attitude.Very humble, I saw that the man had an Iron Cross medal issued by the Nazis hanging on his lapel, and the blue uniform was just like Hitler's guards! Alas, Sadura exclaimed: Your powers of observation are too strong.Miss Mu, I want to fly directly to Arabia, do you agree? I have nothing to disagree with.Magnolia brushed her hair and smiled happily. She naturally has reason to be happy, because she defeated a powerful enemy in such a dangerous environment! And she wanted to meet Sun, the leader of the Black Dragon Party, to completely wipe out this criminal organization, so she agreed to Sadura's proposal without hesitation. Sadura laughed too. Miss Mu.I have one more request. You're very welcome. What do you want me to do? After arriving in my country.I hope you will not only be the honored guest of our country.And to lead us to deal with the Black Dragon Party.Sadura said excitedly. I dare not be a leader, but I can do my best to help you.I believe that Mu Xiuzhen must already be in your country, and I was the one who asked him to meet your prime minister. kaki!Sadura happily called out the name of the prime minister of their country. He is my childhood friend. If he hears the news that I have been captured by the Black Dragon Party, he must be desperate. So we have to get there quickly, otherwise, Prime Minister Kaji may have sent warships to search for the submarine on the sea. Sadura looked at the fuel gauge and said: The reserve of gasoline is enough for us to go straight to Bacheng! He started to communicate with Bacheng Airport by radio, while Mulan sat next to him in the co-pilot's seat and closed his eyes. She wasn't taking a nap, but was thinking, after arriving in Bacheng.What method should be used to deal with the Black Dragon Party. On the plus side, she considered that Sadura was the Minister of the Interior, a force that could be mobilized.Of course it is amazing, and she can also get absolute convenience in doing things. However, Bacheng is also the headquarters of the Black Dragon Party. The masters of the Black Dragon Party, the witty gangsters are also concentrated in Bacheng, and the elusive sun, all of these make things not so smooth. Magnolia was contemplating, and after a long time, Sadura said: Look.Below is the Red Sea. Magnolia opened her eyes, and she saw the narrow Red Sea. I have already contacted Bacheng Airport, and I have informed my family through the airport representative that we will land in Bacheng.I want to invite you to live in my house.Okay? Of course, I like to play with Amina, and I hope to become friends with Mrs. Zun. Sadura was obviously very happy to be able to invite Magnolia. He hummed an Arabian folk song, while Magnolia still closed her eyes and was thinking. After several hours in the air, the plane circled and landed at Bacheng Airport. Sadura is the number two person in the country, and his status is very high. The airport has already learned the news that he is going to land, and the security is very strict. When the seaplane was taxiing on the runway, several vehicles full of armed police officers drove over. When the plane stopped, a streamlined car stopped beside the plane. People getting out of cars.Magnolia is almost universally recognized.The one walking in the front (should be said to be running in the front) is Mu Xiuzhen. In Mu Xiuzhen's hands.Amina with long hair.Behind the two of them was Peng Ke, who was originally a member of the Black Dragon Party and later reformed. Behind it, there is an Arab woman with a very gentle personality who can be seen at a glance, with an expression of surprise on her face. The last one to come out was a tall middle-aged man in a suit. Although Mulanhua had never seen that middle-aged man, she had seen his photos many times. He is the prime minister of this oil-rich Arab country, that is, the leader of this country, Khaki. Mr Sadura.Look, Magnolia walked towards the cabin and said: Prime Minister Kaji is here. Yes, I saw that too.Sadura looked up, very excited: He is my best friend, best friend, and always the best friend. The two of them got off the plane one after another.Prime Minister Kaji, known as the Arab strongman, ran over first and hugged Sadura, while Mu Xiuzhen rushed over and held Magnolia's hand tightly. Madame Sadura stood at a distance with tears of joy in her eyes. Sister Lanhua, as soon as I arrive in Bacheng.I just met Prime Minister Kaji. He is trying to mobilize the navy. The airport has already forwarded your news. How did you escape?Mu Xiuzhen sent out a series of questions. Kaji, I already know the purpose of the Black Dragon Party, and I will immediately let me know.Make a detailed report to you.Sadura said to Kaji, and then pointed to Mulanhua: This is Miss Mulanhua, the Robin Hood of the East, I was rescued by her, and now I invite her to deal with the Black Dragon Party together. Mrs. Sadula walked up to Magnolia, held Magnolia's hand, and kissed it affectionately, making Magnolia do not know what to do. Many of them squeezed into the big car, and the car drove away from the airport and entered the urban area of ​​Bacheng. The new buildings in the urban area are mixed with traditional Arab buildings, which shows that this Arab country is making progress. When the car arrived at the gate of the government building, Prime Minister Kaji got out of the car first under the welcome of two guards, and then the car arrived at Sadura's home. Sadura is a very high-status figure in this country.But his residence.It doesn't look luxurious, it is a very elegant small bungalow, opposite this small bungalow, there are several bungalows that are far more spectacular and beautiful than this one. Sadula arranged Mulanhua and Mu Xiuzhen in the guest room before leaving. Magnolia enjoyed the shower comfortably while answering Mu Xiuzhen's barrage of questions. The dinner was hosted by Prime Minister Kaji. Throughout the dinner, Magnolia noticed the extraordinary friendship between Prime Minister Kaji and Sadura. After dinner, Magnolia walked alone to the garden of the Prime Minister's Palace.The garden was very large, and Magnolia walked slowly forward, far away from the banquet hall. Suddenly, she saw a person sitting on a chair by a fountain in front of her. It was very dark in the garden, and the light from the fountain made Magnolia vaguely see that the man was a tall and thin man. That man was somewhat like Mercury Constantine.Magnolia was thinking in her heart. Just as she was thinking about it, the man stood up, bowed to her very politely, and said: Long time no see, miss. Magnolia was startled suddenly. That was Mercury Constantine! Mulan quickly took a step back, and another voice came from behind her, saying, "May I introduce myself?"I'm the one you kicked, Pluto. Magnolia's body stood still. It wasn't that she didn't want to move, but a tube behind her, pointing at her, made her know that she couldn't move. Your supernatural powers are really not small.Magnolia tried her best to calm herself down, she regretted why she walked so far alone. Thank you for your compliment, miss.Mercury returned to his swagger: You were ordered to deal with us, weren't you? Magnolia was thinking about how to answer. This is her first night in Bacheng.If it fell into the hands of the Black Dragon Party on the first night.That would be too much to justify. She will try to deal with it! She heard it in the distance.Mu Xiuzhen was calling her, this is the heavily guarded prime minister's office.It is easy for Mercury and Pluto to sneak in, but is it so easy to take people out? She thought for a moment, and then said: Yes, this is where your headquarters is. I came to Bacheng only for this reason. Miss, we like your straightforwardness, Mercury played with his hands, your luck is very good.The sun is ready to call you, and you don't want to miss this opportunity. Magnolia's heart throbbed. She was worried that even though she had arrived in Bacheng, she still had no clue and had no way to start. But if you can see the sun, then everything is possible.It all starts here! She had changed her mind, she said: Well, I am going to meet the sun, but I want to let my friends know where I am. You can make a mark near here. No, I'm going to notify them directly!As soon as Mulanhua finished speaking, she suddenly yelled: "Xiuzhen, here I am!"She yelled suddenly, making Mercury very embarrassed. Magnolia has already confirmed that since it is the sun who wants to see him.Then Mercury and Pluto would never dare to kill her, so she suddenly raised her voice. Miss Orchid!Mu Xiuzhen yelled and ran over. Mercury and Pluto hid awkwardly in a row of bushes. Miss Lanhua, what's the matter?Mu Xiuzhen rushed forward. Xiuzhen, Magnolia's voice is very calm.I'm going to see the sun. sun?For a moment, Mu Xiuzhen.Still can't figure it out. Oh, don't you shout!After Mulanhua said something, she suddenly stopped speaking.But her lips were still moving, which was a lip language that only she and Mu Xiuzhen could understand. Mu Xiuzhen was stunned for a moment, she carefully observed the movements of Mulanhua's lips.She could see that Magnolia was telling her: someone was hiding in the dark, it was a member of the Black Dragon Party.They wanted to take her to meet the number one leader of the Black Dragon Party, Sun Yang. Although it was dangerous, it must be done and kept secret. If people asked, they would say that she suddenly felt unwell, so they left without being polite. Mu Xiuzhen was very anxious, she hurriedly said: Sister Lanhua, you are alone Mulan raised her hand and turned around, obviously not to talk to Mu Xiuzhen. Mu Xiuzhen sighed. Of course she knew Mulanhua, she knew that if Mulanhua made a decision, it would be absolutely difficult for others to persuade her, not to mention that at this time, there were Black Dragon Party members lurking in the dark, and they couldn't speak freely at all! Mu Xiuzhen sighed, turned and walked away. However, she also decided not to do what Mulanhua said. She hurriedly walked towards the banquet hall, planning to tell Sadura about Mulanhua's going to meet the sun as soon as she saw him, so that Prepare to be Magnolia's backup. As soon as Mu Xiuzhen left, Mercury Constantine stepped out of the darkness first, and said, "Miss Mu, let's go quickly, do you think your sister will keep the secret for you?" I don't think she will, we really should get out of here soon.How do I leave? That is our secret.Mercury raised his hand, and Pluto walked over. In his hand, he held a syringe, which was no different from that used by ordinary doctors. On the syringe, the needle has been installed, and in the dim light, it can be seen that there is a light blue liquid medicine in the syringe. What is this for?Magnolia immediately asked. Miss Mu, Mercury replied: We ask you to accept this injection. Why? This injection will make you unconscious for about half an hour, and when you wake up, you will already be in our headquarters, and you will have no idea how to get to our headquarters. Humph, what if the syringe is venom?Magnolia asked angrily. Miss Mu, please believe that we are just an invitation on behalf of the sun, and we have no intention of harming your life. To be honest, if we intend to harm your life, look at this Mercury pointing at Pluto. Pluto tossed a long-firing spear in his hand into the air, and then caught it in his hand. During that throw, Mulan saw that the long gun was equipped with an infrared telescopic sight.Such a long-range gun, coupled with such a sight, can kill a person within a mile without difficulty! Judging from the fact that they were not there, they were walking in the garden and shot themselves to death without any warning. From this point of view, the two did not mean to take their own lives. But Mulanhua absolutely refused to accept their injection and be unconscious for half an hour. She shook her head and said: I refuse to accept the injection. Then we have no choice but to say goodbye! Mercury and Pluto looked at each other and stepped back together. Magnolia quickly thought about it, if she lost this opportunity to meet the sun, would it bring difficulties to her in finding the headquarters of the Black Dragon Party in the future? Sun wants to meet him, and it seems that he still wants to win him over. Will his categorical refusal make Sun brazenly take tough measures?This is very unfavorable for the unfamiliar Magnolia. Walk slowly, she only thought for a few seconds, we can use a compromise, you can blindfold me, take me out of here and go to your headquarters. Mercury groaned for a while, obviously it was difficult for him to make a decision. At this time, Sadura's cry was heard in the distance, and he gave orders in Arabic for the guards to search.At this moment, Mercury's body suddenly made a clear beeping sound, some long and some short, and one could tell it was a coded telegram. That is naturally the reason why Mercury has an ultra-small radio receiver on his body. Magnolia couldn't understand what the telecommunication code represented, but she immediately knew that what she said to Mercury could definitely be transmitted to the headquarters of the Black Dragon Party through the radio transmission device on Mercury's body.Then, this beep sound should be an instruction signal from the headquarters of the Black Dragon Party. Sure enough, the magnolia flower was right. Well, immediately after the telegram, Mercury said: We can use your method, but you must cooperate and must not resist. Of course, I also desperately want to meet the sun.Magnolia agreed very simply. At the same time, her brain cells were active again: on Mercury's body, she couldn't see any antennas or anything similar to them. Under such circumstances, the radio sound transmission equipment could transmit her voice to the black dragon. Go to the party headquarters, then, this proves that the Black Dragon Party headquarters is not too far from here! This is of course a smart way, this is the prime minister's residence, who would have thought that the headquarters of a criminal group would be near the prime minister's residence?This discovery made Magnolia very excited. Pluto has already pulled out a black flannelette and tied Magnolia's eyes. When Pluto tied her eyes, Magnolia's body leaned against Pluto's body lightly, and before she knew it, she took Pluto's syringe in the bag, including the box, and stuffed it into the bag. On her own garter. In order to attend the banquet, she never expected to meet the leader of the Black Dragon Party in the Prime Minister's Palace, so she not only wore a luxurious evening dress.He didn't even bring any tools for self-defense, and now he stole this syringe in preparation for an emergency. The sound of Sadura and the guards running was getting closer and closer, and it could be heard from every corner of the garden, even outside the fence, the sound of running and the sound of hurried whistles. Mulanhua thought in her heart, Mercury and Pluto must give up their plan to take her away, because if they can not only escape but also take her away under such a tight siege, it is simply impossible something happened! However, Mercury and Pluto never gave up on taking Magnolia away. Pluto tightly tied Magnolia's eyes with a black cloth. Although Magnolia wanted to peek, she couldn't see anything.She only felt being pulled by Mercury, and she ran forward for about ten yards. Magnolia could clearly hear Sadura's continuous ordering, and the sound of running near her, it seemed that the running people would never be more than five yards away from her. But no one found her, and no one found Mercury and Pluto. Magnolia's curiosity can be said to have increased to the extreme: what are Mercury and Pluto using to hide?Why can't Sadura and so many searchers find them? Mulanhua didn't want to be found by the searchers, because at this time, she simply didn't want to enter the tiger's den, and she had the heart of a tiger's child, and voluntarily went to meet the real leader of the Black Dragon Party.She was just wondering. The suspicion in her heart became more and more serious, because Mercury and Pluto were still leading her forward, and Mulan could even hear Mu Xiuzhen's voice. Mu Xiuzhen was yelling: She was here just now! The cry sounded within ten yards. Could it be that Mu Xiuzhen was blind and couldn't see her? Magnolia knew there must be a reason for this. But she tried her best, but she couldn't guess what was the reason. Both Mercury and Pluto held Magnolia's hand, preventing Magnolia from loosening the black cloth to see what happened. She blinked vigorously, trying to loosen the black cloth on her eyes, but to no avail. No, she still couldn't see anything. Of course, she could easily knock Mercury and Pluto down by surprise, and pull down the black cloth over her eyes to see what happened, but in this way, she might not be able to see the sun. Enduring the curiosity in her heart, she followed the two of them and walked forward quickly. Magnolia counted the number of steps. She remembered that she didn't turn a corner. She walked more than 150 steps, equivalent to about 100 yards, and stopped with the two of her. Magnolia thought to herself: It should still be in the garden, but why can't the sound be heard? The garden is very large, it should be hundreds of yards square, but after only walking a hundred yards, why does it seem to be far away from the garden? Magnolia still can't come to a conclusion. She also stood down. She heard the electric bell was very heavy.She remembered that the one on her left was Mercury, and she also felt that it was Mercury who rang the bell, and she pressed it seven times in a row, five long and two short. Then, she heard a clang, like a door opening.Mercury took her two steps forward again, and she suddenly felt a slight vibration where she was standing! Mulanhua was startled suddenly, and she lost her voice: Where are we? Guess what?Miss!Mercury didn't answer directly. It's in the lift!Magnolia guessed it immediately. Yes, you guessed it. Where is the lift?Magnolia continued to ask. It won't do you any good to ask, miss! When Magnolia was trying to use some method to subtly guide Mercury to answer her question, the elevator had already stopped, and Magnolia was led out by the two of them again, walked a dozen yards, bent over, and got into a car.的速度十分快,而且轉彎轉得特別多,每當在急速中轉彎時,木蘭花的身子。總不免傾斜。 過了大約十分鐘,車子才停了下來。 木蘭花心中暗忖,自己第一想法,已經被推翻了,黑龍黨總部,並不在總理官邸的附近。 她被帶下車,又走了十來碼,步下了幾級石級。在她一出車子的時候,她已聽到了海水的聲音。和間中的汽笛聲,這時,她可以肯定,自己已到了海邊上了。巴城是沿海的城市,但到了碼頭之後,再向何處去呢? 她下了石級,只聽得水星道:向前踏一步! 木蘭花依言踏出了一步,她的身子一沉,接著便搖擺不定,分明是到了一艘艇上。然後,摩托聲達達地響了起來,小艇像是在飛快的前去,嘩嘩的水聲,不絕於耳。 又過了十分鐘左右,木蘭花才被帶上岸,這次,沒有再使用別的交通工具,只是走著,走出了不多久,木蘭花便覺得空氣陡地清新,那分明是已置身於有極好的空氣調節設備的建築物中了。 已到了麼?木蘭花輕鬆地問。而事實上,她的心中,不禁十分緊張,因為她部將會見黑龍黨的第一號人物了! 而且,這時候,她還是在黑龍黨的總部之中! 木蘭花可以感覺到她踏進了一間鋪有厚厚地氈的房間,被水星帶到一張沙發前坐了下來過了兩分鐘,她便聽到對面傳來了一個十分低沉的男子聲音,道:穆小姐,你果然十分合作,也十分守信。現在,你可以將你眼上的黑布,撕下來了。 木蘭花連忙伸手,撕下了那幅黑布。 眼前的光線,十分柔和,使得她雖然眼前漆黑已久,但仍然可以看清一切。她看到自己是在一間十分舒服的起居室中。 佈置全是古典式的,又華貴又舒適,在她的對面。有著一張單人沙發,可是上面卻並沒有人坐著。她連忙又四面一看。寬大的起居室中,只有她一個人。那麼,剛才的聲音自何而來呢? 她正在疑惑著,那低沉的聲音,又響了起來,還是在她的對面。 小姐,你不妨當我就在你的對面 木蘭花轉過身來,憤然地道:你這是什麼意思? 請別發怒。那聲音自對面沙發背上傳出來,小姐。當我的部下邀請你來的時候,只說我要見你,並沒有說讓你也見我,是不是?如今我可以見到你,你是一位如此美麗的小姐。這頗有點出乎我的意料之外。 那麼,你是什麼人? 我自稱太陽,當然我是比不上真正太陽那樣偉大的。 你太客氣了。木蘭花譏諷地說。 這時,她的心中,不禁後悔了起來。 她以為自己此行,至少可以弄清楚黑龍黨總部所在的方向。就算不能的話,也至少可以見到太陽。卻料不到會是如今這樣的一個局面! 小姐,我們的人,死在你手下的已經不少了,我看不出你還有什麼方法可以逃脫我們的報復,除非你肯走一條路。 什麼路?木蘭花一面打量著四周圍的情形,一面問著。 在如今這樣對她極度不利的情形下,她只有盡量拖延時間,希望情形好轉。 你必需介入我們,成為我們的一員。 木蘭花站了起來,冷然地道:你的話講完了麼? 是的,很簡單的一句話,你如果不答應,那麼你就此失蹤了,沒有人會知道你的下落。你甚至絕對看不到殺你的人,我給你半小時的考慮。 慢著,木蘭花大聲說:我和你是敵人,為什麼你那麼熱衷於要我加入你的集團? 太陽的聲音,停了片刻,才又響了起來。 小姐,你應該知道人才難得。如今,你對薩都拉有著巨大的影響力,只要你加入了我們。薩都拉一定也會加入我們的。那麼,我們可以說所向無敵了。 哼,卡基總理會允許你們在他領導的國家中胡作胡為?木蘭花憤然地說。 Ha ha!太陽發出了一陣哄笑聲。木蘭花一時之間。不明白太陽為什麼要發出這樣的笑聲來。難道太陽以為卡基總理是一個平庸而容易對付的人麼? 如果太陽那樣以為的話,那麼他就錯了。因為照木蘭花一日來對卡基總理的觀察,她發現卡基總理是一個精明,幹練之極的人! 卡基總理是這個阿拉伯國家君主統治的策劃人,他領導這個國家已有三年之久,成績甚好。太陽怎可以為他是庸才呢? 木蘭花不明白這一點,而在如今這樣的情形,她也沒有心思去想深一層,因為太陽那低沉的聲音,又已響起來了。 三十分鐘,小姐,你抬頭看上面。 木蘭花抬頭向上看去,她不禁駭然後退! 天花板上垂下的吊燈,燈罩的一半自動揭開,四支烏油油的管對準了她。那是自動控制的,每一秒鐘,每一根管中,可以射出十二發子彈,只要你還在這間房間中,你就絕逃不出去。我如今將時間掣撥在三十分鐘上,如果你考慮好了,請你按上紅色電鈕。 我不考慮。木蘭花立即叫著。 我還是給你三十分鐘的時間,小姐,你應該知道這是我忍受的最大限度了。 不,我要和你本人見面,才能作出決定。 那完全是不必要的,而且,老實說,和你單獨相對,我便是在冒險。那是我所絕對不願意的,小姐,容許我提醒你,你的時間,只有二十八分半了。 木蘭花本來,正是想見到了太陽本人之後,設法制住太陽,再另外設法,但是太陽卻一口拒絕和她見面。 木蘭花感到在她的冒險生涯之中,從來也未曾出現過像如今這樣危險的情形過。 而更令得她啼笑皆非的,竟是她是自己願意投進這個羅網來的! 她對黑龍黨估計得還是太低了。 時間一點一點地過去,木蘭花不時抬頭,向天花板上垂下來的四枝管望去。只見那四枝管,已經在向不同的方同,作上下左右的旋轉。 從這四枝管的旋轉的角度來看,的確如太陽所言,只要在這間房間中,那不論你躲向何處。都不能躲避子彈的襲擊。 木蘭花想到奪門而走,但是她卻驚異地發現。整個屋子是沒有門窗的。只有一個冷氣喉的風口,輸送清涼而新鮮的空氣進房間來。 木蘭花知道有暗門,可是二十幾分鐘的時間,這是不夠尋找暗門的了。而起居室中又沒有可以擋避子彈襲擊的東西,例如鋼桌之類。 她四面張望了約有五分鐘之久,陡地抓起兩隻花瓶來,向屋角的一個凸出數寸的裝置拋去,只聽得一陣破裂之聲過處,隨在那張沙發背上,傳來了太陽的聲音,道:對的,你破壞了電視攝影器,我如今看不到你的動作了,但是我仍然不以為你可以逃得出去,我再提醒你,你的時間,只有二十一分鐘了。 木蘭花不由自主地喘起氣來。 當一個人,自知生命只有二十分鐘的時候。他能不喘氣麼?二十分鐘,那便是說,他的脈搏,只能再跳動一千四百次左右了! 木蘭花的手心出汗,她團團地轉了一轉,又頹然在沙發上坐了下來。 太陽是如此厲害的一個敵人,厲害到他竟堅不肯露面!敵人不肯露面,那怎能對付他?看來唯一的辦法是屈服了。 但是,屈服,木蘭花苦笑了一下,她的年紀輕輕,然而從她懂事以來,她堅強的性格。就使她從來也未曾想到過屈服兩字。 如今,除了屈服之外,還有什麼辦法呢? Magnolia thought quickly.想著。她要利用每一分鐘的時間,每一分鐘!她自己安慰自己。至少現在,她已用花瓶弄毀了電視傳真設備,不論她在這裡做些什麼,太陽都看不到的了。 但是太陽的手中,還握有皇牌,那便是無線電控制的自動武器,那四根在向著不同的角度旋轉著的管,時間一到,子彈便自動發射! 木蘭花抱著頭,她手心的汗和額角的汗混在一起。猛地。她抬起頭來,望著那四根管,她突然想到。為什麼不能將這也毀去呢? 她拿起一切可以拋去的東西,向上拋去,但是那四根管,仍然有規律地四面轉動著。 木蘭花喘了幾口氣。她搬動了兩張沙發,疊了起來,人站到了沙發背上。這樣,她伸起手來,已經可以沾得到那四根管了。 可是,當她一伸手而上時,手離其中的一根管還有寸許時,她便感到全身猛地一震,身子一個站不穩,突然跌了下來。 那一震的感覺,像是觸電一樣,而木蘭花剛才,手指又未曾碰到任何東西,這變化令她錯愕,但是她立即想到,那一定是一種高壓高頻率的電波,使得她無法接近那四根管! 一切辦法都已想盡了,怎麼辦呢? 太陽的聲音,這時候又響了起來:只有十二分鐘了,小姐,我更要提醒你。我剛才撥了時間掣,那就是說,我將一切操縱,都交給了自動系統,那也就是說。十二分鐘之後,就算我的忍耐還沒有到達頂點的話,自動操縱系統也會發動了! 木蘭花猛地躍了起來,秤地一拳,向那張沙發背上擊去。 沙發背上發出了拍地一聲響,傳音器被擊壞。太陽的聲音,立即中斷。 木蘭花不禁苦笑,她破壞了電視傳真設備,如今又擊毀了傳音設備。她可以不給太陽看到自己,也可以不再聽到太陽討厭的聲音。 但是這一切,又有什麼用呢?只不過十二分鐘應該說十一分鐘,她在世上的時間,只不過十一分鐘了,如果她還想不出對付的方法的話。 木蘭花感到她手心上的汗,已成了冷汗,她的呼吸,也變得急促起來。 武器是操縱在自動機器的手中,機器是沒有人性的。它只知道到時間就發作,絕不能動以言詞,也不能去激它,使它停止。那麼木蘭花陡地想起,太陽命自己按紅色的電鈕,又是什麼意思呢?是不是按了紅色的電鈕之後,便會有門出現,可以供她衝出去呢? 木蘭花忙跳了起來,向牆上的一個紅色電鈕按去。 她只聽得拍地一聲響,從牆上翻下了一塊板來。石板的背面,是一份詳細的表格,表格的左端,還貼著她的一張正面照片。表格上面寫著入黨志願書五個字。 表格上的所有項目,全都是填好了的。黑龍黨顯然早已設法搜集了有關木蘭花的一切資料,因為若是木蘭花自己來填的話,結果也不過如此了。 而簽名的一項卻是空白。在表格的旁邊,放著一枝筆。 那實是再明顯也沒有了,她要簽了這份表才有脫身的可能。 木蘭花憤然地將那張表格抓了起來,用力地撕成了碎片。 時間又被化去了三分鐘,她已經只有七八分鐘的時間了。 木蘭花的心中越來越是焦急! 而在同時,心中的焦急,不在木蘭花之下的,絕不是沒有別人了,穆秀珍和薩都拉兩人的心情,便同樣地焦急如焚。 卡基總理已下令開著了只有在國慶日舉行盛大的園遊會,招待外交使團時使用的照明水銀燈,數百盞水銀燈大放光明,使得整個花園,比白天還要光亮。白天還有一些地方是太陽光線照射不到的,但是水銀燈的角度卻是多方面的。它令得花園中的一切,看來都十分清楚。 可是搜索的人,就是找不到木蘭花。 圍牆鐵絲網上的警鈴未曾響起過,守門的衛兵發誓沒有人通過門口。 照這一切情形看來,木蘭花都應該仍然在花園之中。 可是一再搜索的結果,木蘭花卻失去了。 穆秀珍急得在噴水池旁,團團亂轉,薩都拉已下令收隊。兩人在一起,愁眉不展地互望著。 作為主人的卡基總理,和他們交談了幾句,便離了開去。事實上,卡基總理在,也幫不了什麼忙,所以薩都拉也沒有挽留他。 穆小姐,薩都拉第十幾次地問道:你的確是在這裡看到木蘭花的麼? 是在這裡!穆秀珍急得幾乎哭了出來。 她抹了抹眼眶,又道:至多只不過六七分鐘,我找到了你,立即再回來,她就不見了,她說,她要去見太陽。 唉,不論她要去見誰,她總得要離開這裡才行,她能飛出去麼? 別開玩笑了,薩都拉先生,現在我們怎麼辦才好啊? 唉,除了等待之外,還有什麼辦法可想? wait?穆秀珍大聲地叫了出來。 薩都拉攤了攤手,表示無法可施。 穆秀珍又大聲道:我們不能做一些什麼對她有幫助的事麼? 不瞞你說,我們對黑龍黨所知極少,薩都拉面有慚色,可以說是一點線索也沒有! 哼,穆秀珍由焦急而變得漸漸有些不服氣起來,她是怎麼離開這裡的呢?難道她會飛?會隱身法?會遁地? 穆小姐,薩都拉無可奈何地道:我去動員我所能動員的力量,對整個巴城,進行徹底的搜索,務求找到黑龍黨總部的所在! 先生,到那時候,木蘭花她可能已經穆秀珍講到這裡,只覺喉間一陣哽咽,再也難以講得下去!她望著薩都拉,作了一個手勢。 Miss Mu.薩都拉只好這樣安慰著她:請你對木蘭花具有信心,她曾經在最困難的情形之下脫過險,我相信如今她既是自願到黑龍黨總部去,那麼她自然也會安然歸來的。 誰知會不會呢?穆秀珍喃喃地說。 的確,木蘭花曾經有過許多次,幾乎不能脫身,但是終於脫險的經驗。 但是這一次卻不同。 以往的許多次,她曾面對著或多或少的敵人。 但這一次,卻可以說,一個敵人也沒有,她被囚在一間密室中。而受著無線電操縱的武器的威脅,她只有三分鐘的時間了! 室內的空氣雖然非常清新,但是木蘭花的身上卻在冒汗。 她以前好幾次能夠死裏逃生,轉危為安,全靠著她個人的鎮定,然而如今。她卻只覺得自己的鎮定,在漸漸地消失。 時間在那樣的情形下似乎過得特別快,一分鐘就像是一秒鐘,而另一個一分鐘,則更快得像是半秒鐘一樣! 她抬頭看去,看到那四枝槍管的撞針,正在慢慢向後移去。 她突然忍不住大叫了起來。 也就在這時,她看到了那近天花板處的冷氣喉。冷氣喉是從牆中通過來的,在牆的頂部,鑿了一個約十寸高,兩寬的洞,洞口裝著調節格。 那是逃生之路!時間無多了,可能只有幾十秒,木蘭花在一隻櫃上一頓腳,身子向上躍起了三四尺,她已經伸手攀住了冷氣喉外面的風向調節格,用力一拉,將之拉了下來,而她的左手,已攀住了牆洞。 冷氣從洞中噴出來,使得她禁不住連打了幾個寒戰,但她是絕無選擇的餘地了,她可能只有十幾秒鐘的時間了。 她先向洞中伸了伸頭,勉強可以伸得進去,她縮著手,將身子向牆洞中擠著,擠過了牆洞之後,便是冷氣喉,那比較高上半,可以令她較為舒服地伏著。 然後,她便聽到了槍聲。 在呼呼的冷風中,聽著身後傳來的槍聲,她的身子,禁不住一陣又一陣地發抖! 太陽並不是在說著玩,木蘭花早知道他不是在說著玩。 自動武器依時開火了! 從那四枝槍管旋轉的角度來看,的確室內的任何角落,都在射程之內。 但是木蘭花卻也知道她是安全的。 因為在距離天花板一處,那是安全的,槍管並不射向天花板,因為沒有人能附著在天花板,冒著徹骨的冷風。但這顯然是值得的,因為她已經逃開了那四支自動槍的射擊。 木蘭花試著伏著向前移動著身子。 約莫過了三分鐘,她才聽得槍聲靜了下來,木蘭花計算那三分鐘內。射出的子彈。少說也近一千發,那間房間中的一切。一定都已粉碎了。 但是,當太陽未發現她的身體時,就一定可以知道她是逃向何處的了,因為只有那一個地方是逃生之途! 所以,她必需向前爬,爬,直到太陽找不到她為止。 她左右挪移著身子,胸部和腹部貼在用隔聲板做成的冷氣喉上,像蛇一樣地移動著身子。 她無法看清眼前一寸的東西。因為冷氣喉內,黑得一點光線也沒有。 她不斷地向前爬,終於,她看到了光亮,她向前爬去,光亮越來越甚,她看清楚了。在她前面是一個高可九寸,寬可兩的洞。 在洞上,裝有風向調節格。 那是通向另一間房間的冷氣口。 木蘭花本來以為,自己一直向前爬去,會順著冷氣喉,爬到冷氣機前去的。冷氣機當然是裝在地窖中,她已經設想了一些脫身的辦法。但這時,她知道自己的猜想錯了。她可能在爬行途中改變了方向。所以才會來到了另一間房間的冷氣口處。她一直爬到了調節格前,才停了下來,向下面看去。從上面看下去,她可以看到下面房間的一半。 她看到,在自己對面的牆上,安裝著兩排八隻巨型的電視機,其中一隻開動著,在螢光幕上現出來的,是薩都拉和穆秀珍兩人,木蘭花立即認出,那是在總理官邸的花園中! 木蘭花心中不禁暗暗吃驚。 她身在黑龍黨的總部之中。但是在黑龍黨的總部中,卻可以直接看到總理官邸發生的事,這豈是可以想像的事?但這卻又是的的確確,發生在她眼前的事! 木蘭花知道那當然不可能是無線電視。無線電視的傳播,要依靠高出地面許多的發射台。如果說黑龍黨徒竟能在總理官邸中安置一座電視發射台的話,那簡直是天方夜譚了。 電視的傳播方法只有兩種,不是利用無線電波直接傳播,那便是有線電視,在電視攝影機和接收機之間,有線相連。 那也是難以思議的事情了。 木蘭花記得非常清楚。她到這裡來的時候,不但坐過車,而且坐過快艇,那絕不會是短距離的路程。 而黑龍黨徒居然能在總理官邸和黑龍黨總部之間,拉上一條電視傳播線,使得在總理官邸發生的事,立即可以出現在設在黑龍黨總部的電視螢光幕上。這未免太以神通廣大了! 黑龍黨徒是用什麼方法進行這項工程。而又不給人發覺的呢? 木蘭花的心中,充滿了疑惑。 她只是略想了一想,便沒有再想下去。 那並不是她不想探索其中的秘密,而是如今的環境,實在不是探索這一切疑點的時候。 她身子冷得直發抖,她要先求脫身,然後再仔細地將所經歷的一切歸納起來,一件一件,來謀求解答,以求得真相大白。 她從風向調節格中看出去,可以清楚地看到急得團團亂轉的穆秀珍,和無可奈何的薩都拉。 她還可以看到屋中其它華貴的陳設。 最後,她看到了一雙腿,一雙小腿。 那雙小腿擱在一隻金色絲絨的梯子上的,腳上套著軟羊皮拖鞋,有一條腿正在微微抖著,顯然那兩隻腿的主人,正在十分舒服地欣賞穆秀珍和薩都拉兩人的焦慮。 木蘭花竭力想看清那是什麼人,但是她卻辦不到,因為她根本只能看到那間房間的一半。她只好仔細地打量著那一雙小腿。那當然是一個男人,名貴的羊毛質地的長裙,是青灰色的條子花紋。並沒有穿襪子,木蘭花留意到左腳的腳背,近腳踝處,有一個如銅錢大小的紅色的疤痕。 木蘭花心知若是自己以後再看到那雙腳,她一定可以認得出來的。 那人在這兩排電視機前,那當然也是黑龍黨中的重要人物了。 木蘭花伸手推了推面前的調節格。 她知道要將之推掉,並不是什麼難事,但如何才能不發出聲音來,不讓下面那人知道呢? 木蘭花正在蹦曙間,忽然聽得下面響起了水星康斯坦丁的聲音:太陽,太陽,木蘭花不在了。 接著,她又聽到了兩下冷笑聲,另一個聲音道:她當然不在了,她還能活著麼? 那後一個聲音,木蘭花認出,那正是當自己囚在那間房間中的時候,和自己對答的太陽的聲音! 木蘭花的心悸砰地跳著。 她迅速地得出了推論:水星進了那間房間。發現並沒有自己的身體,所以立即通過電話器,向太陽報告。 那麼,在這間房間中的,不是別人,竟然就是太陽了? 自己竟誤打誤撞,來到了這個黑龍黨第一黨魁的房間之上! 木蘭花的心劇烈地跳動著,她又是緊張,又是興奮。
