Chapter 10 Ambush
"John!" Elizabeth heard the gunshot and hurriedly ran down from the third floor. In her milky white sleeping suit, she seemed to merge with the moonlight cast from the window. Seeing the scene below at this moment, her delicate face became extremely pale.
After all, the man who fell in the pool of blood was her husband, John Howlet.
Two consecutive gunshots completely shattered everyone's sleepiness. Even Tony, who fell asleep early, rushed down in panic in a pair of shorts, thinking that he had encountered some terrorist attacks here.
I heard that it was just a gardener in the manor who went crazy, and everyone felt it was a little incredible. After all, this happened sooner or later, but it happened to them tonight when they stayed there. This is not a coincidence.
However, Robert, who was the only person present who thought this was a coincidence, did not speak out.
In the original plot, when gardener Logan learned that the young master of the Howlet family was his son, he wanted to take Elizabeth and his son away.
When he knew that he could not achieve this, Logan came to the door with a gun in anger, and then the scene of shooting John appeared.
Robert glanced at Elizabeth who was sobbing. No one would leave such a stable life and choose to wander around the world with a gardener.
No one wants their biological son to suffer with him.
If Elizabeth eloped with Logan, it will indirectly prove the fact that James is Logan's biological son!
In any case, this fertile and rich pretty beauty could not accept it.
However, Elizabeth wisely chose a trick to make things easier at that time.
She first agreed to Logan's request in her words, but turned her head and quietly suggested in front of Master Howlet - to transfer Logan to a farm away from their mother and son.
This is also the reason why Logan came to the Howlet Manor from the farm so angry that he would never see them, both mother and son in his life.
Anyway, to put it simply, the current picture can be reduced to - James' biological father killed James' adoptive father, and James' mother was crying.
To be honest, Elizabeth's skin is well maintained, and she can't tell she is an elderly woman...
Maybe it's dark...
After dawn, Robert became more certain of his point of view.
James' mother was born white and tender, as if she was made of water.
In addition, the other party's eyes that were red and swollen from crying, were as delicate as a white lotus that I felt pity for, which made the person who saw her feel heavy.
"Madam, please feel sorry for me." Tony stepped forward and stroked his chest with his hands. If it weren't for Rob and his men who had formed an inherent impression of him, the dignified expression on Tony's face would not look too serious.
"Thank you for your comfort, Mr. Tony." Elizabeth pulled up an ugly smile.
John's body has been put into the coffin and is expected to be buried tomorrow.
I heard that Mr. Howlet would also invite a priest to recite the Bible for John. At that time, relatives and friends of the Howlet family and tenants of the Howlet family will come to mourn the son of Mr. Howlet.
And the gardener Logan, who killed John, would have been chopped up and fed the dog at this moment, if it weren't for his other son Victor's plea, and would have been buryed in an unknown hill.
The manor master, the manor gardener...
The lives of two people, whether before or after death, show a clear difference.
This difference is as intuitive as the contrast between the slums and the wealthy areas of Gotham City.
At this moment, the green grass was covered with the breeze of water vapor, and it could not dispel the haze in Rob's heart.
This kind of thing happens in this Aberta area. Will Robert not have such a dangerous event when he settles in the Central Sea?
Then why did he leave Gotham City? Why did he have to spend so much effort?
"What's wrong?" Vanessa asked when she saw Robert's expression was gloomy.
Robert shook his head: "No, but I feel a little uncomfortable when I see the dead."
Upon hearing this, Vanessa also silently. She also saw the huge blood hole on John's chest. Although the two had only had a few conversations, they still couldn't help feeling worried when they saw John, who was still having fun yesterday, lying in the coffin today.
This emotion filled everyone's heart. Robert no longer thought about those questions because he already knew the answer. Vanessa's speech made him firm again. Even if there were terrifying incidents in the Zhonghai area, it would definitely be hundreds of times better than the security environment in Gotham City.
In the future, there will be clowns, Penguin and other inexplicable terrorists in Gotham City.
I can't stay in that place anyway, and my decision to leave Gotham City is undoubtedly correct!
After breakfast, Rob and his friends offered to say goodbye.
Mr. Howit did not let out the hearty laughter of the first meeting, and sent them away with a serious look on his face. In order to express his apology for frightening the guests, the old soldier lowered his head: "I'm really sorry, this happened in the manor, and it was still at night that disturbed the rest of the people. If possible, please accept the money..."
"No need, Mr. Howlet, please feel sorry for me." Robert pushed away the big hand that handed the money ticket.
He had no disgust for this Master Howit, but the other party was Wolverine's relatives, and they were destined not to have too much interaction.
Finally, he looked at the Howlet family standing at the door of the manor - Mr. Howlet, who was tall and big, like a giant bear, Mrs. Elizabeth, who had just lost her husband, looked like a little James with depression.
Robert had no nostalgia at all. The Wolverines, goodbye, never see you.
On the way I came, the people were still the same, and the scenery was still beautiful.
But unlike when he came, Victor, who was leading the way, no longer had the interest in speaking. Tony knew that the other party lost his father last night, so he rarely shut his mouth.
The atmosphere along the way was dull.
Just as everyone was about to pass through a small wood, Rob narrowed his eyes and suddenly shouted: "Everyone is lying down!"
Then he took the lead in throwing Vanessa under him.
Shortly afterwards, yellow and orange flashes flew over the head, and the gunshots also rang out layer by layer, and the place where the sound was made was a small wood not far from everyone!
"Ph! Ph bah bah!" Tony choked on a few mouthfuls of dust. If his bodyguard hadn't pounced him down, he would have been shot into a sieve by the gunman in the woods.
Natasha and Victor are not weak people. When they heard Robert's reminder, they fell down even if they didn't understand.
However, two or three Tony's bodyguards did not take Robert's words seriously. They are now in a pool of blood. One of them is even in a flowery head and can't die anymore.
"You, and you, hurry up! Take me away!" As soon as Tony saw these tragic situations, he quickly ordered the remaining two bodyguards to leave.
Robert glanced at Tony's departure back and said to Natasha: "Preparing all the salutes of the horse, leaving Vanessa, and leaving here for me!"
Natasha didn't say much, kicked the horses away, pulled Vanessa and rode on the horse.
As for Victor, the poor gardener, like his father, no one cares about his life or death.
"Rober! You..."
"Don't worry about him. If you are still within the shooting range of those guys, the scene of blocking bullets for people will happen to Robert! You don't want Robert to die for you, do you?" Natasha shook the whip hard.
"Dadada..."
The sound of horse hooves gradually faded away, and Robert also got up from the ground.
He looked at the woods in front of him and shook his neck. It seemed that he had to do some exercise again this morning, but this exercise was different from the usual exercise, and he still had to see some blood.
Chapter completed!
