Chapter 119 This is the queen's ring!
Seeing Tom's appearance and the uncontrollable ecstasy in his eyes as he looked at the group of ducks next to the stream, William wouldn't have guessed that Tom was eavesdropping on the animal's conversation.
William stood quietly and remained moving, but his heart became more and more eager for this ability.
Not long after, Tom stepped forward and rushed towards the duck.
He was taking a few steps, and the remaining reason stopped him.
He looked back at William, opened his mouth, and tried to speak for a few times, but couldn't speak a complete word.
William couldn't help but smile, but his face was filled with a puzzled expression and asked, "Tom, look at you like this, have you discovered something?"
"Yes... no..." Tom admitted and denied!
"Are it or not? Tom, be brave, and if you find something, you can say it loudly! No one will blame you at this time! Only you can save yourself!" William said with encouragement.
"Okay, Mr. Zorro!" Tom was moved to see William considering him so much!
He didn't want to deceive William, but he didn't dare to tell William the truth.
Tom fell into a dilemma.
It would be enough for a fool to do it once. Seeing Tom like this, William could not see his problem.
He shook his head in his heart and said again.
"Tom, I found you looking at these ducks? Do you think these ducks are thieves? What a funny joke! Do you want to use this joke to relieve your nervousness? I have to say, this is a good idea."
"It seems that you don't think so? Do you really think these ducks are thieves! Oh my God! Tom, don't do this! Don't be defeated by setbacks!"
"Okay, unless these ducks eat the queen's ring!"
William looked at Tom's silent appearance and chatted endlessly. At the end of his speech, he even slapped his forehead, a little bit self-deprecating.
William's last words inspired Tom. His eyes flashed and he didn't know how to demonstrate, and a thought appeared in his mind.
As soon as William finished speaking, Tom continued his words.
"Why isn't this the case, Lord Zorro?" Tom's eyes were filled with excitement. He looked at William. "You think if there was a duck who accidentally swallowed the ring that His Highness cherished the most, no one or any animal noticed in this scene. Then it walked like a full and drunk gentleman, swaggeringly, walking on the water lying like a mirror, and came to other places."
"No one knows this!" Tom looked at William, "but under your sharp gaze, you will find all the secret loopholes."
"Are you serious? Tom! There are so many ducks here! And it may not be swallowed by the duck!" At this time, William came over to persuade Tom.
"Of course, Lord Zorro! You said that people cannot give up disappointment!" Tom excitedly grabbed William's hand and said.
Although William could shake Tom's hand with a slight wave, William just smiled faintly and let Tom catch his hand.
"You're right! Tom, then go and do what you want. I'm behind you!"
"Thank you, Lord Zorro! I am not familiar with you, but you helped me so much! Thank you!" Tom bowed to William.
"Go!" William waved his hand with a "kind smile"!
Tom wiped the corners of his red eyes, then turned around and walked towards the ducks.
Tom gets closer and closer.
The ducks who were originally silently whispering also became turbulent.
When Tom walked into the ducks' psychological safety line, the ducks could no longer sit still, stood up one by one, took two duck legs and ran towards the stream.
When Tom saw it, his hands were swaying, and he ran away, and he quickly grabbed one of the fat ducks in his hand.
After the fat duck was obtained, Tom was immediately overjoyed. Suddenly he seemed to think of something, frowned, looked around and caught another duck.
Tom grabbed two ducks and came to William.
William asked with a smile, "Tom, this is the duck that you think might have eaten the Queen's Emerald Ring? But don't catch them just by looking at them as they are fat."
Tom was a little embarrassed and said, "No, Lord Zorro... I am... I am... I see them slow, right, slow. I think I will definitely feel a little uncomfortable after eating the Queen's ring. Yes, some are uncomfortable. These two ducks are the slowest ones I just saw, so I think they are the most likely."
Tom said it a little stuttering at first, but it was very smooth when he said it. It seemed that he believed it himself as he said it.
For such a childish reason, William nodded seriously, "What you said makes sense. Then just touch the duck's belly and see if there is a ring?"
William's nod made Tom feel relieved in secret. He heard William's words, he smiled and said, "Sir Zorro, how can you touch the things you eat in your stomach?"
"What should I do?"
William's appearance made Tom feel very helpful. He said proudly, "Sir Zorro, come with me, I'll let the people in the kitchen handle it!"
William nodded and followed Tom.
The two arrived at the smoky kitchen.
A fat old man with red acne on his face was directing others to work in the kitchen.
Seeing Tom coming with two ducks, he let out a loud sneer, "Tom, is this your last supper?"
"Shut up! Old Mike, otherwise I'll stuff one duck into your mouth and another duck into your hole!"
"Okay! OK! Whatever the dead man says is the most important thing! What do you say is what you say?" The fat old man, known as Old Mike, chuckled, looking gloating.
Tom glared at Old Mike fiercely.
Old Mike still doesn't restrain himself.
Tom had no choice but to deal with him, and turned his head and whispered to William, "This is Old Mike, the King's chef."
"Well! William nodded to show that he knew.
Tom then walked to Old Mike with the two ducks, "Slaughter these two fat ducks! I'll give you one!"
In fact, these ducks are the king's property.
But if someone like Tom wants it, it is not impossible, just pay the king enough money.
Tom said this, he wanted to buy the two ducks and hand them over to Old Mike for treatment, and one of them would be treated as a reward.
Old Mc suddenly had only a crack left in his eyes. He took the two ducks, weighed them separately, and said, "This guy is trying hard to eat himself fat, and he is already waiting to go into the oven."
"This guy has lost a little bit, but it doesn't matter, it tastes good when roasted!"
Old Mike said, chopped off the heads of the two ducks and began to dig out the internal organs of the two ducks.
The thinner duck handled it very quickly, but when dealing with the fatter duck, Old Mike accidentally showed something hard when he was sucking his internal organs.
Old Mike took it out and washed it. It was a ring inlaid with a huge emerald.
