C279 tunnel digging (1/2)
A person in such a state of mind is difficult to make a decision about, as Pierre is now.
In the face of his country's interests, he should've sent the result of his own analysis to the sect immediately. The possibility of Xiao Letian attempting to use the sewer system to escape was extremely high.
However, Pierre was also considering whether her homeland, the France, was right to do such a thing. A prime minister of the Ryukyu Kingdom, and a leading scholar of Western China, was it not in international law for France to keep him under house arrest in the Besanthus?
Add to that the information about the invasion of China by France six years ago still lingered before his eyes, and Pierre, with his strict morality, was saddened.
Yes, Pierre was indeed a Frenchman with a strict moral sense, and although this sounded ridiculous, how could a lecherous French be associated with moral ability? This question was not hard to explain. Being lustful did not mean that he was a bad person, and not being lustful did not necessarily mean that he was a good person.
The most obvious example was the Qing Dynasty's Qingliu Leader, Weng Tonghe. Wild histories had recorded this great scholar's life down in his diary every time he rolled out the sheets with his wife, and it was also very disciplined. However, looking at everything he had done in the past, it was clear that lecherous, lecherous, and lecherous had no direct relation with morals or morals.
Outside Pierre's small dark room, Xie Lifu and many senior intelligence executives were anxiously waiting for the final results of their analysis. When His Majesty was furious, these people had no choice but to lower their haughty heads and beg Pierre for help.
However, they had neglected the influence Fang Guan had had on Pierre, and that slap along with righteous criticism had caused Pierre to fall into a deep dilemma.
On one hand, it was his loyalty to his homeland, and on the other hand, it was his self-criticism of burning summer palace. On the other hand, he was deeply infatuated with Fang Guan.
Maybe in the beginning, Pierre was just having a Casanova and wanted to give it a try. However, when Fang Guan shouted a bunch of curses, Pierre realized that he had fallen in love with this Chinese girl.
”Report?” Or don't report... Report? Or don't report... ”F * ck, give me another bottle of wine …” After struggling with the issue, Pierre shouted loudly from the outside, which scared Xie Lifu so much that the cigar in his hand fell to the ground.
”Oh, Pierre, is your result out yet? Is there any clue? ”His Majesty is already infuriated. Please, for the sake of our good friend from so many years, hurry up …” Xie Lifu said nervously.
Pierre did not answer him immediately. Instead, he grabbed the bottle of wine, raised his head and took a big gulp. After that, he let out a long burp.
”Give me a little more time. I have left the intelligence network for too long after all. I need to digest all the information I have gathered. Please give me a little more time …”
Hearing Pierre's reply, the intelligence officer in the corridor all sighed and lit up a few Cuban cigars.
Pierre's hesitation gave Xiao Letian a chance to escape. In the underground tunnel near the villa, Yepingtai and Bing Tai Lang had already begun their attack.
The soldiers of the Foreign Legion, not only had to fight for every minute and every second, they also had to maintain absolute silence. All the rocks in the soil had to be dug out with their fingers, afraid that the iron shovel would make any unusual sounds when hitting the rocks.
Steel drill, spade, crane beak hammer... All sorts of earth tools took their turns to enter the arena. There were even many soldiers whose index fingers were worn and bleeding profusely.
Bing Tai lowered his voice and encouraged everyone, ”Hurry, hurry... I'll only give you twenty minutes. If we can't dig it out in twenty minutes, we'll have to use explosives … ”That would result in unnecessary sacrifices …”
”Brothers, don't forget who made us eat our fill. Who paid us so much that we didn't have to become thieves? is my father, our Prime Minister Xiao … ”
”Remember what we were? We are a group of lowly sea cuttlefish. And what are we now? We are proud New Army Warriors, we are the first batch of Warriors from the Foreign Legion … Our identities caused even the warriors of the Shimadzu Family to be envious. Only Master Xiao could bestow such honor to us … ”
These Japanese soldiers could not forget the envious eyes of all the Japanese in Ryukyu, much less the stupefied expression of those official warriors from the Japanese islands.
The facts proved that a person needed a type of mind. Otherwise, what difference was there between him and a walking corpse? Under Bing Tai's encouragement, all of the new Japanese army members went crazy. Their palms were cut open and bleeding profusely, and they absolutely did not want to give up their positions.
This was a slanted passageway. After careful trigonometry, the exit should be in the back kitchen of the villa. As for whether there would be a French policeman guarding the kitchen, that would be a gamble.
In the villa that Xiao Letian was temporarily staying in, the fat French cook was making a pot of soup. After a while, the Prime Minister of the East came back, she knew that he wouldn't be able to eat until he was full.
cook hummed a tune as she stirred the thick soup. However, she gradually realized that there was something strange about it.
”Oh, what's going on? ”Earthquake...” The fat cook even squatted down to listen carefully, but the sound mysteriously disappeared. Just as he was hesitating whether he should report this to the guards, a clamor came from outside, ”Prime Minister is back, prepare to bathe in water at night …”
