Christopher's sword-like eyebrows twitched.
He stared at Ed's face for a while, and then stared at the gun in Ed's hand for a long time. Finally, he took a long breath and accepted the reality:
"How did you get it?"
"It's a long story. Olivia asked me to give it to Quinn, and Quinn temporarily gave it to me for safekeeping. It can be regarded as a coincidence." Ed replied, "If there is a chance in the future, , I will find an opportunity to make it clear to you."
Under normal circumstances, he would not be able to bring this gun into his dream, but this time the situation was somewhat special - this time he was playing the role of Edgar Waikolo himself in the dream, and the sea monster had seen He also recognized this gun, and even more knew that he had this gun.
Therefore, it was only logical that this volcanic pistol appeared in his hands.
"If they both trust you, then I have no reason to doubt you." Christopher said calmly, "Tell me, what do you need me to do now?"
"I don't know much about the situation in your mansion. I'm afraid you still need to take personal command. I just hope that you can survive this attack and ensure the safety of your wife and the two of them..."
Ed looked out the window, the rain had almost stopped, the blue moonlight was hidden in the clouds, and there was a touch of blood red in the solemnity.
…
"What happened, Chris?" The director's wife clasped her right hand tightly on her hanging left wrist and asked calmly.
She was wearing a black and green dress with a pattern of grass leaves, and her appearance was about 60 or 70% similar to Miss Olivia's. However, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and the sagging skin untimely reminded people that she was no longer in her prime.
"Jacqueline, this is Agent Waikolo. He will be responsible for ensuring Quinn's safety later." Christopher introduced. "You and Olivia go to the secret room for a while. Gororik will take good care of you."
"Father, what's going on?" Seeing that her mother stopped asking questions, Miss Olivia finally couldn't hold back anymore, "The space in the secret room is big enough, it should be able to accommodate Quinn - or even everyone, right? ?”
Miss Olivia's complexion was much rosier than when Ed first saw her. The delicate and straight facial features were flawless, and the voice was clear and translucent, like a beautifully blooming rose, eclipsing the entire Hexi spring day.
"The secret room is not absolutely safe. It can only be delayed for a short time at most." Christopher sighed like a helpless father and explained patiently, "I will protect you and Quinn, believe me, Okay?"
"Master, I brought Miss Quinn here."
I saw the old butler Gorolik holding the hand of the sleepy little Quinn in pajamas, pushing open the door of the library and walking in.
"A bad guy is coming to your door. Can you please stay with Agent Waikolo... Brother Edgar? He will ensure your safety." Christopher bent down, almost half-crouching and said to Quinn said.
"Okay." Little Quinn rubbed her eyes and looked at Ed with her tender green eyes, "I seem to recognize you."
"Me too." Ed winked and smiled, "Let's go, others are already waiting for you in the living room."
He took little Quinn's hand and wanted to lead her away. Mrs. Jacqueline's voice came from behind:
"Mr. Waikolo—"
Ed turned around and saw Mrs. Jacqueline curtsying to him:
"please."
He took off his hat and put it on his chest, bowed solemnly and said:
"Please don't worry, ma'am."
…
"Are you crazy? Why did you bring little Quinn out? The child still has a fever!"
Bai Ya sat by the window and wiped his snow-white longbow. The silver-plated arrowhead shone with a faint blue cold light in the moonlight. When he saw little Quinn next to Ed, his expression suddenly changed.
"This is what the director meant." Ed held Quinn's hand and carefully avoided the moonlight at his feet. "You prioritize ensuring your own safety. I will take care of her."
He wasn't too worried about Quinn's safety. With her self-healing ability, she should be able to recover from any serious fatal injuries.
Ed is more worried about other people than Quinn, especially Mr. Kraken, who is supposed to be the star of the show.
"Look, isn't this adding to the chaos? Yuanhuan... If those people really come, it's not clear whether we can survive. Now we have to be wet nurses to take care of the children."
Black Arrow leaned next to the bright orange oil lamp and said with a smile on the other side of the living room.
"I don't have a fever anymore! And I can take care of myself. If you don't believe me, look at-"
Quinn took out her butterfly-wing folding knife from her pocket and flicked it twice. Her movements were not as smooth as they would have been ten years later, almost like a novice who was just starting out.
"Okay, okay, I believe it, I believe it. Oh, my aunt, be careful with your fingers!"
Before Quinn could hurt her hand, Byakuya went up and held her down.
"Where is Rowan? They should have arrived a long time ago. Is there something going wrong on the road?" Black Arrow asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, he is where he should be."
The sea monster pushed the simple horse made of furniture and display swords in front of him, and said vaguely.
The rain finally stopped and the moon was coming out.
Ed walked to the window. The night sky washed by the heavy rain was extremely quiet. The shadows of the tall buildings were like a high wall. A hazy light and shadow passed in front of his eyes and disappeared in an instant.
"Hey, Old Man Yu, you said there is an old trap that has been passed down for many generations in this house, but why have I never seen it?" Black Arrow sat down on the back of the sofa and asked lazily.
"Herald Adeline is the master of the 'Moon Shadow' secret script, and so is her family. This mansion is shrouded in the 'Moon Shadow' secret script, and under the full moonlight, its power will reach its peak."
This time the sea monster was not impatient, but explained patiently. While he was speaking, an unknown cold wind suddenly blew by, extinguishing the oil lamp suddenly.
"It's so cold..." Little Quinn said sadly, leaning on Bai Ya's arm.
It was indeed a cold wind. Ed felt as if there was a line of white frost on his back, and he couldn't help but turn around.
"Quinn? Quinn?!" Bai Ya shook the sluggish little Quinn and put the back of his hand on her forehead. "Oh my god, this child's forehead is as hot as coals."
"I'm afraid it's freezing. It's cold enough tonight. It's all because of the rain..." Black Arrow couldn't help but take a breath into his palms and rub them again, "Is there a fire outside? Why did it suddenly turn red? ”
"No, it's not fire..." The sea monster stood up and looked at the vision outside the window in surprise.
Ed turned around, and saw that all the dark clouds had faded, and red light stung his vision as far as the eye could see. A huge scarlet full moon descended in the night sky, faintly seeming to make a twisted and weird roar.
