“Their sacrifice is also worth it. As long as Leo dies, I am the underground emperor here. I will control Mafia and government and nobody can defeat me.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
These words are insipid, but let the bald man very excited. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
After such a long time of patience, doesn’t he want to stand on the position of deputy? From now on, he will control more power and even expand his territory… <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Beep beep beep– <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The bald man is thinking about it when his cell phone suddenly ring. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Looking the message, the bald man’s eyes are brightened and says, “Boss, Leo has appeared!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The corners of Juan’s mouth are slightly raises and he says, “Very well, let Claire’s substitute out and leads Leo to the east of the castle. As long as Leo arrives at the designated place, he will be blasted to the bone!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Yes!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Bald man begins to deploy action. Claire gently goes back and leaves the study. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
As expected, these are all the traps of Juan! She must tell Leo to leaves here as soon as possible! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Back to the safety zone, Claire immediately takes out her wristwatch and says anxiously, “Hey, Conan, let Leo leave quickly. He is in ambush!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
With voice going down, Claire does not get any response. Surrounded by a dead silence and she can only hear her panic footsteps. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Damn, the signal is blocked again!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Holding the wristwatch tightly, Claire turns to look out of the window and finds that the terrace has been bombed. She afraid it’s impossible to contacts Conan there. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Now the only way is to find Conan first and let him finds a way to contacts Leo. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire squints and runs to the underpass according to the instructions before Conan. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But after opening the door, Claire sees only one dead body. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
No need to say, it must be a masterpiece of Juan. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The last road is blocked and Claire is completely flustered. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But Leo still needs Claire. She can’t wait and watch Leo go to the end. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
With eyes closed and breathing deep, Claire orders herself to calm down. When she opens her eyes again, she has made a decision. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Leo, you were protecting me before. This time, let me protect you!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Biting her red lips, Claire turns around and runs back along the original road. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
… <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
There is a huge fountain on the east side of the castle, which usually sprays various kinds of fancy water columns. It is spectacular and beautiful. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Now, the sound of gunfire around it is constant, the air is full of blood. But the fountain still keeps its gorgeous shape, which is very strange. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The first round of attack is over. There are only a few people left on Juan’s side. They are forced to the southwest of the castle to fight. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire seizes the opportunity and takes a short cut to the east of the castle. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Far away, Claire sees a thin woman standing in front, wearing a cape and a hat. And the brim of the hat is too low to see clearly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But the profile of this woman is very similar to that of Claire. With the tense appearance of the surrounding guards, it’s easy to mistake she is Claire. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At the same time, Leo appears in another direction. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Obviously, he also finds the fake Claire and hurries to there immediately. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The anxious Leo doesn’t think much about it. He thinks that the woman is Claire. He asks his subordinates to get rid of the guards around the woman and prepare to rescue her. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At the sight of Leo, Claire knows that the fool has been trapped by Juan and shouts, “Fool, that’s not me. Come back quickly!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire shouts loudly, but she is too far away from Leo and there are gunshots all around, drowning out Claire’s voice. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire knows that the way to make Leo clear is to let him see her own dignity, so all the schemes will be broken without attack. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Since Leo can’t hear her voice, she can only explains everything in front of him! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire’s eyes are dignified and she decides to take a chance. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Looking closer and closer to Leo, Claire’s eyes are bright and frightening. She is so eager for hope that she doesn’t find a man approaching her. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Miss Bennett, why are you here? It’s too dangerous!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
A strange man stops Claire and drags her to the corner to hide and looks around. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
What’s the situation? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire looking at the man and asks, “Who are you?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I’m just an ordinary guard and still alive. Miss Bennett, it’s too dangerous here. Let me take you out of here.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The man in front of her is just a small guard. He is so humble that he won’t know the plan of Juan. Seeing that Claire is in danger, he wants to take her to a safe place and renders meritorious service in front of Juan. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The guard doesn’t find Claire’s difference. He looks around carefully and says, “There are subordinates of Leo around here, but don’t be afraid. Even if I die, I will send you to a safe place.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The promise makes Claire’s mouth twitch and her voice murmured, “OK, all right.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The guard takes Claire for a few steps in the opposite direction and then hears Claire groan. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Ah!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“How…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
As soon as the guard is about to look around, he feels a pain in his forehead. Then he sees Claire holding a stone in her hand and looking at him in shock. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“You…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
No, it’s not dizzy? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Seeing the guard’s eyes wide open, Claire is very nervous and a little at a loss. After all, it was the first time she had hurt someone. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Just when Claire doesn’t know what to do, a bunch of blood beads trickled down guard’s brow and when his eyes closed, he falls back. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
As soon as the guard fainted, Claire is relieved, then she picks up the other side’s gun. She does not dare to delay for a moment and continues to run in the direction of Leo. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Looking at Leo approaches to the woman, Claire’s heart is raises fiercely. she wishes she could grow wings and immediately flies to Leo’s side to wake up the fool. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But when Claire is getting closer and closer to Leo, she is horrified to find that there is a man in black behind Leo, who appears like a ghost and aims the swarthy gun at Leo. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
How can this happen? Doesn’t Juan prepare a bomb? Why sends a surprise attack behind the killer? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire is upset. Although she feels strange, she can’t think much. She runs and roars as if she is mad. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But the sound around is so loud that Leo couldn’t hear Claire’s voice at all. Juan sees this scene in the dark and raises his mouth coldly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He is to kill Leo in front of Claire, so that she can total be disappointed with the man and let her know who is the strongest king. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The man in black pulls the trigger and his eyes burst with murder. But Leo hasn’t found the crisis yet. He is glaring at the fake Claire. <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
