In the lake, the Thorn Flower Prison. 3:16 p.m.
In a bright and gorgeous office on the top floor of the inner castle, Warden Jones and his butler Peter were sitting in front of the balcony drinking afternoon tea.
A black cat lay on the dining table, nibbling on a piece of bread with meat.
Anyone who is familiar with the warden knows that he is a very caring person who likes to raise some small animals most in his life, among which cats and dogs are his favorites.
He loved these cats and dogs far more than ordinary ladies, and even asked a realist-style oil painting master to paint portraits of his cats and dogs and hang them in his office.
A jailer once played cards too late and forgot to bring his hound Cassie dinner.
As a result, no one saw him eat for a week.
"Greedy little guy" Jones stroked the black cat's head with a kind smile on his face.
At only thirty-eight years old, he has sat in this position.
In addition to the huge background behind him, his own ability is even more difficult to ignore.
"It's raining again."
Peter, the butler, sighed as he looked at the rain outside the window.
Jones smiled calmly and said, "It's just a drizzle."
"Light rain will eventually turn into heavy rain."
The butler said sadly.
Jones waved to the maid next to him, who understood what he meant and obediently handed over a fluffy cotton-padded jacket.
"If your spine hurts again, put it on."
Jones handed the cotton-padded jacket to the butler.
Peter, the butler, quickly stood up to express his thanks.
After putting on his fluffy cotton-padded jacket, he sighed and said, "Every time it rains, old habits come back and we can't change them."
Jones smiled slightly, and at this moment, a slender woman walked quickly from outside, approached him and whispered a few words in his ear.
After hearing her words, the smile on Jones's face slowly disappeared bit by bit.
He nodded slightly, looked at the light rain outside the window, and said softly: "You are right, light rain will always turn into heavy rain. " The butler noticed the expression on his face and asked, "What happened?"
"A prisoner ran away."
Jones said softly: "It's the little guy who came three years ago.
The jailer just sent word that he had left the cell.
There was a pit and tunnel inside the cell.
He dug the tunnel and escaped. " "Escape" the housekeeper was a little surprised, "He has tools.
There is a lake outside, where can he escape from?"
"It should have been a tool stolen while working.
It dug through the entire bottom of the lake and escaped from the bottom of the lake."
Jones looked out the window, lightly tapped his fingers on the table, and said: "The radius of our lake should be three More than a hundred meters."
The housekeeper looked shocked and said: "How is it possible to dig a channel at the bottom of the entire lake?
Where did he dig such a long channel and move the soil?"
The slender woman next to him said respectfully: "I heard from the jailer that he brought the dirt into the cell and smeared it on the walls and the floor.
Because it was spread too evenly, it was not noticed by the jailer in the dim light.
He only saw it after he entered.
The walls and floor are much higher than other cells.”
The housekeeper was stunned and speechless.
Jones raised his hand and stroked the black cat on the table, which was still chewing the meat filling in the bread.
The black cat ignored their conversation and concentrated on eating.
He gently stroked the fur on the cat's body and whispered: "We will be wanted."
Pass on the order, and also notify the Black Cavalry Army to dispatch and immediately trace the whereabouts of the criminals."
"Yes."
The slender woman promised and turned around to leave.

"Wait a minute."
Jones stopped him, but still looked at the black cat in his hand kindly, and said softly: "The people who have been responsible for delivering food inside for the past week, let them stay with Cassie."
The hair on the slender woman's body stood up slightly, she tensed her body and agreed, then quickly turned around and left.
After she left, the housekeeper Peter still couldn't recover, and couldn't help but said: "There should be no flaws in the structure of our prison.
Even outside the excrement channel, there are guards on duty.
How could he escape?"
Jones shook his head slightly and said: "There is no flaw, maybe it is the biggest flaw.
Because this prison was built at the bottom of a lake, the walls are too thick.
We always thought that no one would be stupid enough to dig such a thick wall, let alone the bottom of the lake outside.
Other prisoners also think so, but this is a misunderstanding.
It is not necessary to break through the wall.
The thickness of the wall means that no one can hear the vibration when this little guy is cutting the passage inside the wall.
This is the biggest advantage of our prison.
Today But it’s also the biggest drawback.”
The housekeeper fell silent and sighed: "If this is true, this time can be regarded as a reminder to us.
The strong prison has caused the guards to relax their vigilance and be too careless.
If they are called by name frequently, they will never let one person dig through the numbers.
A hundred meters of passage to escape, and the round trip time in between will expose him. " Jones nodded slightly, "Fortunately, it's just the little guy on the first floor."
After saying that, he patted the black cat on the table and said with a smile: "Greedy guy, go and play when you're full."
In the North District of the slums, there is a small factory on a desolate and remote street.
Dudian bought some food in a roadside tavern and hired a carriage to come here.
When the carriage arrived, the food he bought had already been eaten in the carriage.
The fatigue of several days suddenly felt relieved and his body felt better.
Regained some strength.
After getting off the carriage, Dudian took a look at the small factory.
Just as he was about to enter, he saw a notice hanging outside the factory, which turned out to be his wanted order.
"It only took one night for the wanted order to reach here.
The efficiency was quite fast."
Dudian's eyes flickered slightly, but he did not avoid it.
He still walked to the front of the factory and said to the old guard inside: "I'm looking for a few people, named Barton.
Clune, Joseph" The old man raised his eyes listlessly, glanced at Dudian, and said, "They are at work, what do you want to do with them?"
Dudian took out three copper coins from his pocket and handed them to him, saying, "Help me call them out.
Just tell them that their old friends are here to visit them."
When the old man saw the copper coin, he suddenly woke up from his sleepy appearance.
He put away the copper coin with a smile and said, "Okay, you wait here, I will call you right now."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Du Di waited quietly beside him.
It was normal for the old man not to recognize that he was the person on the wanted poster.
He had tied up his hair at the moment, which was far different from the disheveled appearance on the wanted poster.
In the past three years, Although the jailers often torture prisoners, they are not deeply impressed by the prisoners' faces.
After all, they have not been groomed for a long time and are often covered by hair.
No one is interested in remembering a face that is bound to die.
Therefore, the person painted here based on the impression of the jailer is completely different from his actual appearance.
Although there is a portrait of him when he was first imprisoned, showing his delicate facial features, three years later, his appearance has changed greatly.
Big changes, you know, the stage where a person grows most rapidly Duan is from the age of ten to sixteen.

Today, he is completely different from the childish and delicate look on his face before.
Growing up in torture, pain and hunger, his face is thinner and his eyebrows are higher.
Quite, although he is only sixteen years old now, he has a somewhat mature and cold temperament.
What's more, his face was evenly smeared with coal, so even an acquaintance would have to stare carefully for a long time to see some familiar outlines.
After a while, the old man returned, followed by four figures, namely Barton, Clune, Joseph and Barry.
Three years later, the appearance of the four of them has changed greatly, but Dudian still recognized them at a glance.
When the four of them saw Du Dian at the door, they looked a little confused and stepped forward and said, "You are" Dudian smiled slightly and said, "Follow me to the abandoned factory."
"Abandoned factory" When the four of them heard these words, they were shocked and immediately showed signs of surprise.
Barton said excitedly: "You are finally back, Di."
Dudian raised his hand to interrupt him and said, "Follow me first."
Barton was startled, suddenly thought of something, his expression changed, and he said nothing more.
The other three looked at each other, and Barry hesitated for a moment, hesitated to speak, and finally said nothing.
Seeing that the four of them were about to leave with Du Di'an, the old man hurriedly said: "It's still working time.
Where are you four going?
I don't want the salary anymore."
Barton said continuously: "Uncle, please help us take a leave."
"I can't help with this."
The old man immediately shook his head and refused.
Dudian said to the four of them: "I don't want to work here anymore, come with me."
The four of them looked at each other, vaguely guessing something, and said nothing more.
The old man looked at Dudian in shock and said, "Boy, what are you talking about?
If they leave, their two months' salary will be gone."
Dudian ignored him and turned around to leave.
The four of them immediately followed.
After a while, Dudian and the four of them returned to the abandoned factory in the suburbs.
"Dean, what is going on?
Why are you wanted?
Where have you been in the past three years?
The arrest warrant says you are a heinous criminal.
What crime have you committed?
I don't believe it is murder.
Even if He was killed by mistake, so it’s not a heinous crime.”
Barton asked eagerly as soon as he arrived at the abandoned factory, his face full of worry.
Dudian's eyes swept across the faces of several people one by one.
When he saw a hint of worry on Barry's face, a light flashed in the depths of his eyes and said to several people: "What the wanted order said is right.
I didn't have it before."
Crime, but now things are different."
He looked at the four of them and said, "Are you willing to do something big with me?"
The four of them looked at each other, and Kroon asked in a low voice: "Is this what happened before?"
Dudian smiled slightly, shook his head slightly and said, "It's a bigger thing."
The four of them looked at each other and saw the hesitation on each other's faces.
Barry looked complicated and said, "Dean, how about we stop it?
It's good to live an ordinary life like this.
We are now Although the work is difficult, it can still provide enough food and clothing.”
Dudian glanced at him, his expression remained unchanged, and said to the other three people: "Where are you?"

Kroon said worriedly: "Although we want to help you, but now you are wanted, once exposed, it will be over."
Barton didn't speak, and kept staring at Dudian.
After Kroon finished speaking, he suddenly said: "Dean, no matter what you want to do, I will follow you.
I said, my life is given by you, even if If you ask me to go rob, I will go too.”
Dudian glanced at him with a smile on his face.
"Me too."
Joseph gritted his teeth and said: "I said at the beginning that I don't want to live a life of one meal and no next meal.
Although I can find a job in the factory, how do others view us with contempt and disgust?
, I’ve had enough for a long time.”
Kroon and Barry were startled and fell silent.
Seeing that the two of them were silent, Barton said angrily: "Dean is wanted now.
It's a time when he is isolated and helpless.
Are you just watching Dean being wanted?"
Kroon gritted his teeth slightly and said, "I don't want to either, but what can we do to get Dean's wanted order revoked?"
Barton choked and said angrily: "Even if it doesn't work, now that Dean needs help, you have backed down.
How can you be worthy of Dean taking you out of the orphanage?"
The two of them looked ugly and were speechless.
Dudian glanced at them and said: "You don't have to have any psychological burden.
I said that I brought you out to repay your kindness for taking care of me.
If you want to live a peaceful life, you can leave now, but I hope you don’t expose what’s going on here.”
When the two heard Dudian's words, they lowered their heads.
Kroon clenched his fists and gritted his teeth: "Damn it, I'm going to risk it.
The worst is to fight.
Anyway, I've had enough of the mocking voices of those idiots."
Barry suddenly fell to the ground and said: "Dean, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I can't do it, I already have someone I like, I just want to live a peaceful life, I hope you can forgive me, I promise, absolutely I won’t tell anyone what’s going on here.”
Dudian's expression remained unchanged, he nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I wish you happiness, go ahead."
Barry raised his hand to wipe away his tears, not daring to look at Barton and others, and turned around and left without looking back.
Du Di looked at his leaving figure quietly, with a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes
