Chapter 37 Celebration in the Dungeon
This was the exclamation heard in the hall downstairs.
After the sound rang out, the soldiers and servants guarding the door immediately opened the door and rushed in.
They looked at the situation in the room nervously.
Except for the naked Colonel Barrett, they didn't find anything suspicious.
"Ms. Scorpion, what's wrong with you?"
asked a Guardsman.
"Are you blind? Didn't you see that the colonel's shirt is missing?"
"shirt!"
"By the way, there are also our wedding rings!"
Poisonous Scorpion remembered that there was something more important than a shirt and quickly added.
At this time, Contense rushed in with two servants.
Payne didn't expect that Venomous Scorpion would discover it so quickly.
It struggled to control its panic.
If it weren't for the fact that his father's hospital bed was right behind him, Payne might have hid in the wall.
Suddenly, a hand reached out from behind and grabbed one of his hands tightly.
Payne was startled and shouted loudly.
"ah--!"
Everyone in the room stared at Payne.
"Son, don't be afraid"
The baron opened his eyes and looked at his son.
Contense breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the baron.
At this time, the Baroness and Queen Sophia walked in from outside the room.
After Contense rushed up the stairs, the two ladies followed him.
They didn't think anything would happen in the ward with so many guards around.
Therefore, they thought it was Colonel Barrett who had woken up.
The first time they came in, they saw the Baron working with Payne's help.
The two ladies greeted the baron together: "Huntingdon, how are you?"
"Monsieur Baron, have you recovered?"
The baron's face was still a little pale, and he quickly smiled and greeted the two ladies, saying that he was fine.
The two ladies turned their attention to Colonel Barrett's position on the other side of the room.
Seeing the naked Colonel Barrett at the same time, the two ladies turned around together.
Poisonous Scorpion quickly covered her husband with a blanket: "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I'm so rude."
"Ms. Scorpion, what happened?"
"Barrett's shirt and wedding ring are missing"
"Are you sure these things were originally there?"
"Of course I was still with him when I left!"
"Then, maybe the servant took off his clothes and changed them. I will send someone to get a new one soon."
"The clothes can be changed and washed. The wedding ring is also taken and changed!"
In the dungeon, Xie Sheng looked at the bottle of wine on the tray.
"I have a suggestion, do you want to hear it?"
“What suggestions”
"I have no appetite at all now"
"What do you mean, pianist, please don't go too far. I can't even eat such a meal on Thanksgiving."
“I’ve never had that in my life”
"I really want to shoot you"
The guards were very angry. This pretty boy was so disrespectful!
"If each of you drinks a glass of red wine, and I mean everyone, including the cork guys, I will allow you to share the veal and caviar without telling anyone outside."
"But why are you doing this?"
The Sphinx didn't understand the pianist's suggestion.
"Due to the education I received since childhood, I have always been a very kind person, but because I was imprisoned in the dungeon for no reason this time, I felt extremely insulted, so I acted like an angry child before."
"Haha, you finally realized that your behavior is very childish!"
"Yes, very naive, because of my willfulness, to everyone in the dungeon, I am talking about the gentlemen who work hard to make corks every day, and all of you who have not committed any crime at all, just to accompany us,
It’s the guards who have to stay in this dark dungeon year after year. For this reason, I am now falling into deep guilt."
"It should have been like this a long time ago. If you could have said these words so frankly when the ladies and ladies were here just now, you would have gone out with the ladies a long time ago."
"Yes, in short, I am very touched by my previous performance, so I hope to treat everyone in the cell to a drink. Since I only have such a small amount of food, I am afraid it is not enough for everyone to share, but such a big bottle of wine is enough for the dungeon.
Everyone here has had half a glass, so there is no need to share these delicacies with the guards."
"Mr. Pianist, as a senior prison worker, I can understand your confession, but we have clear regulations that guards and prisoners are not allowed to drink, at least not while working."
"Mr. Guard, if you think about it, if everyone has half a glass of wine, how could anyone be discovered? And if you are punished for this, you can blame it entirely on me, and say I threaten you."
The Sphinx looked at the red wine and delicacies on the tray, and then looked back at her friends.
"Master Warden, we are doing good things."
"Is there anything more wonderful than saving a person's soul?"
"Master Warden, this is our duty"
Xie Sheng looked at the hesitant Sphinx: "I will go out sooner or later, do you want to gain my friendship or hatred?"
The Sphinx immediately said to his men: "Go find more cups and remember the number of people in the dungeon."
Soon, various cups of different sizes were delivered.
The Sphinx counted the number of guards and prisoners, and placed enough cups.
Carefully pour the bottle of wine into the glasses evenly.
The Sphinx handed Xie Sheng's cup from the cell.
"Mr. Pianist, do you need any ceremony?"
"Of course, there is such an atonement ceremony in my memory. According to the requirements of the ceremony, everyone drank this glass of wine together and said their names respectively. I want to remember everyone who was kind to me. You know
, Payne doesn’t have a bright mind, it’s not impossible for me to become the next owner of the castle.”
Thinking of the second young lady's performance in the dungeon, no one questioned what the pianist said.
"Well, this is very easy to arrange. I can arrange it to start at the door, then the cattle rustlers, no, those hard-working cork workers, and finally us."
"Mr. Warden, your arrangements are very reasonable. I hope you will be the last one to sign up, and then we will toast together."
"Mr. Pianist, this arrangement is really reasonable."
After a few minutes, everything is ready.
The lemures also slipped toward the dungeon little by little.
Except for Wallace, who was still unconscious, and Charlie, who was forgotten, there was no one left in the dungeon.
Both the guard and the prisoner were holding a cup in their hands.
Registration starts with the two guards at the door.
Chapter completed!
