Chapter 25 The Colonel is Shot

But the latter point is an injustice to both Barrett and Pankolov.

This matter actually has nothing to do with them.

But after all, they have a deep friendship with the Baron, especially the things Barrett and the Baron did together when they were young.

The Baroness's suspicion of Barrett was entirely his own fault.

Upon hearing the Baroness's words, Butler Hu shook his head vigorously.

"Just to have a tryst with Miss Mary, Mr. Baron can go there without hesitation. Is there any need to risk his life?"

The Baroness said to Butler Hu: "You still don't know enough about these men in upper class society."

"Isn't it just one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes?"

"If it were just like this, things would be much simpler."

"Has anything similar to what happened to Mr. Baron ever happened?"

"The things our King did are much more outrageous than this."

"Why don't I know anything? Can you tell me?"

The Baroness sighed: "We have gone too far. We will talk about these things later. Those old men, the older they are, the more abnormal hobbies they have. They go directly to Miss Mary's door, knock on the door and go in to complete those boring things.

, he will feel no sense of achievement, so he needs to go through some very weird processes before and after the incident. Now you know why I didn’t let him enter my room after giving birth to Xiaodie, right?”

"Haha, Xiaodie was named by me." Speaking of Xiaodie, a smile appeared on Butler Hu's face.

"Do you treat her as your own daughter because you named her?"

"That's it"

"You might as well find a man and have two children by yourself."

"I want to, but there's nothing suitable."

"Butler Xiong is good, Doctor Edward is also good, and..."

"Jacqueline, shut up right now, can't you say some classy names?"

"Mei'er, I know you often stare at the pianist. He is too young for you."

"Madam, I'm not staring at the pianist for my own sake."

"What's that for?"

Neither woman realized that their conversation had strayed far off topic.

The oriole bird next to him stared at Butler Hu intently. Xie Sheng also wanted to know why this woman kept staring at him.

Before hearing this conversation, he didn't even know that Butler Hu had been staring at him.

However, just when Butler Hu was hesitating to tell the Baroness the reason, there was a crisp sound of gunfire outside.

Housekeeper Hu's reaction was extremely sensitive. The moment the gunshot rang out, she jumped up from her seat and threw the Baroness down on the carpet.

Xie Sheng was also startled by the gunshots, but he reacted quickly.

The oriole immediately flew toward a window along the window and the blind spot outside.

These gunshots are the good deeds of the skinned demon Lockerbie and his puppets outside the castle.

This burst of gunfire not only interrupted the conversation between the Baroness and Butler Hu, but also caused more serious consequences.

For a gunner, there is no more conspicuous target than the towering central tower.

Under the leadership of Little Lockerbie, the skinned demon, six rifles aimed at the two small black spots on the top of the tower and fired.

Those two little black dots were Barrett and Pankolov who were driven to the top of the tower by Butler Hu.

When Lockerbie and his puppets passed the castle, the two smokers were smoking on the top of the tower.

The two stood on the tower parapet, looking at the woods and fields below.

"Pankolov, look there seem to be a few people standing there."

"Really? He must be a farmer nearby. The farmers here are very diligent. Are they going to take care of the tobacco that makes a lot of money?"

The two people saw that those people were the skinned demon Lockerbie and his puppets.

At this time, little Lockerbie, who was raising his rifle, saw two black spots on the top of the tower.

It adjusts the muzzle of the gun, aims at the top of the tower, and pulls the trigger.

These six rifles are the most advanced models.

After receiving the order of the emergency mission, those "farmers" set out with the best new rifles.

While reducing the weight of the gun body, the range is no less than the heavy rifle Xie Sheng used at the beach house.

The baron has a lot of money. The reason why the servants in the castle all carry old-fashioned rifles is because of these new rifles, the kingdom's army has not yet accompanied the northern district in large numbers.

In order to avoid being too ostentatious, I haven't used it much.

The soldiers pretending to be farmers and guarding several farms around the castle had already been equipped with new rifles.

Because the other five puppets are completely controlled by Lockerbie, it means that the six rifles are aiming at the same position.

This greatly increases the hit rate.

And the two people on the tower were unlucky enough that someone got shot.

Of the two men on the top of the tower, the one who was shot was Colonel Barrett.

Because he is very strong and has lived a pampered life in the past two years, Colonel Barrett has gained a lot of fat.

From a very young age, Pankolov had the appearance of a frail and consumptive ghost.

Barrett occupies 70 percent of the Gunners' targets.

If there are two people and one person must be unlucky, wouldn't it be a very reasonable thing for the colonel to be shot?

Anyway, this was not an assassination specially arranged to target Lord Pankolov.

After little Lockerbie got into trouble, he swaggered away with others without knowing what consequences he had caused.

It does this just to show its blood relatives how powerful it is and to get some interesting toys.

But its mischief brought great pain to Major Barrett.

A lead bullet hit Barrett in the chest, and he lay on the ground clutching his chest, which was covered in blood.

The two Royal Guards soldiers who were driven to the other side of the tower quickly ran towards this side.

The faces of the two soldiers were flushed, showing traces of their fingers.

One of them aimed his rifle at Pankolov.

Another squatted next to Barrett, examining his injuries.

They were all directly under Barrett's command, even though they had received a severe slap in the face not long ago.

But that was their own mistake, and in this case they still favored their superiors.

"Damn it, what are you doing? The gun was fired from the woods below."

The soldier slowly walked up to the parapet, his rifle still pointed at Pankolov.

Until he saw smoke rising from the woods somewhere below.

The soldier turned his gun and aimed at the place where the smoke was rising, and said: "My lord, please try to stay as far away from the wall as possible. If I was offended just now, I hope you can understand. You can also complain to my superior."

Another soldier was pressing his hands on Major Barrett's chest to stop the bleeding.
