Sui's room.

Fortunately, thanks to the few glasses of wine at dinner and the earplugs Anfiya helped her put on, the girl was lying on the big soft bed, sleeping soundly.

Quietly closing the door, Wei Ran walked up the city wall again. After some thought, he did not rush to notify Dominic or lawyer Carlos. Instead, he waited patiently for the Katenka sisters to transfer Lily and another

After the prisoners were brought back, Lily was brought to the watch tower of the castle.

Wei Ran glanced at the resting pigeons and crows on the top of the sentry tower through the glass on the door, and then glanced at Lily who was tied to the shelf by the Katenka sisters. After hesitating for a moment, he said in an extremely polite manner.

, "Ms. Lily, we meet again."

"Let me go," Lily, who had a fingerprint left on each side of her swollen cheeks, said with a cold face, "otherwise I..."

"You'd better not threaten me."

Wei Ran didn't wait for the other party to finish, he pointed to the pigeon nest outside the door and reminded, "I don't mind locking you with those damn pigeons and crows, so if you don't want to sleep in bird droppings for the next few days,

Here, it’s best for you to answer whatever I ask.”

"Inform Dominic." Lily closed her eyes as if resigned to her fate, "I don't want to communicate with you."

"It's not up to you."

Wei Ran smiled, "And such a trivial matter is not worth informing Mr. Dominic. I can definitely help him decide your fate."

"You?" Lily snorted disdainfully, the contempt in her expression not concealed at all.

"I can lock you up in this castle until Mr. Dominic dies."

Wei Ran pretended to be frivolous and gently lifted Lily's blond hair, and asked slowly against her ear, "Lily, have you read Rapunzel in Grimm's Fairy Tales?"... "What are you going to do?"

Lily asked after trying to headbutt Wei Ran to no avail.

"Girl Rapunzel is locked up in a tower by a witch"

Wei Ran let go of the other party's hair, took a step back and said with a smile, "I have decided, Anfisa, help me go to the town tomorrow to buy a chain that even Beria can't break free. I will tie Ms. Lily to it."

In this watchtower."

"I'll go buy it as soon as it gets light."

Anfisa, who was leaning against the door frame, responded very seriously, "Go to Salzburg and buy it. I can find someone to help process a metal collar with a lock."

"Not a bad suggestion." Wei Ran snapped his fingers with satisfaction, and Lily also shivered subconsciously.

"Don't worry, I won't let you starve to death of thirst."

Wei Ran pointed to the corner, "There is a faucet there, and there are enough pigeons and pigeon eggs outside the door. Anfisa, remember to give Lily... ah no, remember to leave enough length for the pigeon girl's chain, so that she can

You can go to the top of the sentry tower to catch pigeons, or you can go downstairs to drink water."

"I will pay attention to this matter"

Anfisa agreed seriously again, and at the same time reminded her seriously, "Boss, if you eat raw meat for a long time, you will be infected with parasites."

"It doesn't matter"

Wei Ran waved his hand nonchalantly, "When you go to buy the chain, buy some deworming medicine and prepare it for her in advance."

After saying that, Wei Ran had already picked up a towel stained with bird droppings and walked towards the pale Lily, "I'm very curious about how long you can live in this tower, and I'm even more curious about whether your hair will look like Rapunzel in the fairy tale.

Likewise, the long one can be hung down to the bottom of the tower and used as a rope ladder. I promise, if you can persist until the routine maintenance in the fall, I will let you go."

"You...you are a devil!"

Lily yelled in panic. She was not stupid, she could even be said to be a smart woman. But the smarter she was, the more she could tell from Wei Ran's eyes that this young man who was probably not even half her age was definitely serious.

of!

"certainly"

Wei Ran pretended to be crazy and spread his hands, carefully and gently wiping the tears that overflowed from the corners of Lily's eyes with a towel stained with bird droppings, and asked in a particularly calm and serious manner, "Otherwise, why do you think Mr. Dominic entrusted the Elk Foundation to

For me?"

"You...what do you want to know?" Lily, who didn't dare to hide, asked with tears streaming down her face, her trembling tone already filled with undisguised pleading.

"Give you three chances"

Wei Ran threw away the towel in his hand, took a step back and said nonchalantly, "Three chances, you can say whatever you want, chips, secrets, transactions. As long as you can impress me once, I can consider letting you go. If you tell me

It's interesting enough that I wouldn't even mind working with you to make the Elks Foundation our property."

This move ------- Zili's face immediately showed a heartbeat. As soon as she said it, Lili's business plan showed a childish look. After a moment of silence, this man who was nearly fifty years old

, but the very well-maintained woman opened her mouth and said, "Dominic left the farm in Ontario to me. If you are willing to help me inform Dominic about the haunting of the castle and the news and let me go, that farm is yours..."...

"You still have two chances," Wei Ran reminded with a smile.

"Plus the White Rose Ski Resort north of the castle!"

Lily immediately upped the ante, "And he has already given me five million dollars, which I can give to you!"

"Last chance" Wei Ran said with a look of greed on his face at the right time.

"You're too greedy," Lily reminded with a frown.

"It seems that you can't give me a bargaining chip that I'm satisfied with," Wei Ran said and walked downstairs, "Girl Pigeon, I wish you a happy stay here. I will remember to come and take a look in the autumn..."

"Wait!"

Lily yelled in panic. Seeing that Wei Ran didn't stop at all and had already taken the twins downstairs, she immediately shouted, "There are good things hidden in the church in this castle! If you are willing to help me,

I can share the contents with you!"

Hearing this, Wei Ran didn't stop at all, he just waved his hand and said, "Stop her mouth and don't let her wake up Aurora."

"OK"

Anfisa took the initiative to stop, turned around and walked into the room that was filled with the smell of bird droppings. After a moment, Lily's shouting also stopped abruptly.

"Boss, shall we go to the church to see it?" Anfiya, who was still following Wei Ran, asked.

"Need not"

Wei Ran waved his hand without thinking, took out his cell phone and looked for Carlos's lawyer's phone number while saying casually, "Whatever is inside has nothing to do with us, and if that church is really that easy to get into, I'm afraid Lily would have already

We went in and it wasn't our turn at all.

The most important thing is that this is Mr. Dominic’s castle, and we are just guests here. Since we are guests, please don’t touch the castle owner’s things.”

"so we…"

"Tomorrow we will go to the town at the foot of the mountain for a walk. If we have nothing to do, we can go back to Kazan or go to Hawaii for a few days!

Okay, you guys go and have a rest early. Also, remember to clean up the scene. If Aurora asks tomorrow, just say that you waited until midnight and no ghosts came, so you went to sleep." Before he finished speaking, Wei Ran had already pressed the dial.

key.

Seeing this, Anfiya and her sister who were chasing her looked at each other, and the two sisters speeded up their pace in tacit agreement to overtake Wei Ran.

While their boss was talking on the phone, the sisters first cleaned up the bullet casings and blood stains scattered in the castle and on the walls, then sorted out the photos taken by the camera and replaced the camera with a memory card.

At the same time, Wei Ran also picked up what he could tell and briefly described the situation here to Carlos's lawyer. He also carefully concealed the existence of the castle in accordance with the agreement with Dominic, and at the same time tried to cover up the existence of the castle.

Turning the crime scene into the "White Rose Ski Resort" that he has never been to, let alone planned to go to.

After hanging up the phone, Wei Ran, who had almost reached the door of the guest room, also yawned. He gently pushed the door open and lay down next to Suisui without even taking off his clothes. By the way, he also helped her take them off.

He took the earplugs out of his ears and threw them under the bed.

In the blink of an eye, early the next morning, before the sun came over the city wall, Anfisa drove the car with obvious impact marks on the rear and left the castle early and rushed to the town at the foot of the mountain... waiting for her to come back.

By that time, I had already changed to an off-road vehicle and brought back a sumptuous breakfast and beef for the three pets.

In the town below the mountain, Leya, who was woken up in the early morning, also temporarily restricted the freedom of electrician Lime with the help of her husband, a landscaper, and other staff.

"So there was nothing haunted last night?"

In the small living room on the third floor of the guest building of the castle, Suisui asked with a disappointed look on her face while holding a cup of hot milk bought by Anfisa from the town at the foot of the mountain, "How is this possible? You guys didn't fall asleep in the middle of the night too, right?"

「

"Shortly after you fell asleep, I went back to the room." Wei Ran yawned and said regretfully, "I knew I wouldn't have drank last night."

"We went to bed at half past two in the night."

The Katenka sisters said in unison, and then they each yawned, "We also went to take a bath in a hot spring before going to bed, but there was no ghost at all, but the crows on the sentry tower were cawing almost all night long."

"Yes! Hot spring!"

Suisui immediately became interested, drank the milk in the cup in one breath, wiped the milk stains from the corner of her mouth, and said enthusiastically, "If you didn't come, you didn't come! Maybe I will come tonight, now I want to

We're going to the hot springs. Do you want to go?

"

"Go!" Katenka sisters agreed in unison, and like Suisui, they each reached out and picked up an apple strudel from the plate.

"Don't take too long"

Wei Ran tapped the cell phone on the table, "At ten o'clock, we will drive to that small town for a stroll. I remember yesterday that Liya said that there are several restaurants in that small town with very good food."

"There's enough time!" After Suisui finished speaking, she had already greeted the Katenka sisters and ran back to the room, while Wei Ran also fed the remaining breakfast to the three pets.
