Acai's Sky

Chapter 277: Cannons against Sparrows

After receiving the order, Er rushed to the Wuwei Marquis Mansion like an arrow.

He jumped onto the roof nimbly, like a nimble cat, and carefully observed the guards patrolling the mansion.

After scanning the area, his eyes finally locked onto Captain Li.

Ah Er picked up the note he had just hastily written without hesitation, wrapped it tightly with a stone, and threw it with all his strength. The note flew towards Captain Li, the Guard, as fast as a meteor.

There was a dull "bang" sound, and the note hit Captain Li's neck accurately.

"Who is it? How dare you sneak attack me? You're so tired of living!"

Guard Li was furious. He clutched his aching neck and thought to himself, "If the force had been any greater, I'd have lost my life right here."

He lowered his head angrily and searched the ground.

Soon, the paper ball was found.

Captain Li, the guard, bent down, picked up the paper ball, moved closer to the lantern hanging nearby, and slowly unfolded the paper ball in his hand in the dim candlelight.

However, when he saw clearly what was written on the paper, he couldn't help but gasp, and a layer of fine beads of sweat instantly appeared on his forehead.

"During the city's guessing contest, many children were tragically kidnapped. If you wish to save them, please follow me..."

After reading the note, Guard Captain Li didn't dare to delay even a moment and quickly handed it to the deputy captain beside him, and urgently instructed: "Quick, submit this note to the Marquis!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his head and looked sharply at the dark shadow above the roof, while waving his hand to signal the small team of guards behind him to follow.

At this moment, his heart was filled with fear and worry, because he realized that the figure on the roof was most likely the mysterious ranger who always liked to spy on what was going on in their mansion.

Could it be that the young lady of this mansion also unfortunately fell into the hands of a kidnapper?

Thinking of this, Captain Li, the guard, became extremely anxious and quickened his pace, wishing he could catch up with the black shadow immediately and find out the truth.

When Er saw that they were catching up, he led the way and sprinkled a lot of fluorescent powder along the way.

Li Kai saw a fluorescent strip on the ground and without time to think about it, he led his men to chase the ranger in front.

……

Wuwei Marquis Mansion Study

Deputy Captain Yu of the guard team clenched the note in his hand with a serious expression and hurried to find the butler.

He said anxiously, "Master Steward, please take me to the study to meet Lord Lin immediately! This situation is urgent and cannot be delayed!"

At this time, Lin Hou was sitting comfortably in a rocking chair, patting the beat leisurely, with his eyes closed, and humming melodious opera from time to time.

He looked as if he was completely immersed in his own world, unaware of anything in the outside world.

After hearing the deputy captain's call, the butler did not dare to delay at all and hurriedly led the deputy captain into the room.

As soon as he entered the room, the butler shouted anxiously, "My Lord, this is bad...something terrible has happened!"

Lord Lin was startled by the sudden shout, but he slowly opened his eyes and asked with a hint of dissatisfaction, "Why are you so panicked? There's a guessing contest going on outside today. Aren't you going to join in the fun?"

Steward Feng Shu didn't bother explaining too much. He hurriedly handed the note to Lord Lin and said nervously, "Lord, look! Captain Li has personally led the team to hunt down the human traffickers!"

Lord Lin's originally casual expression suddenly became serious. He quickly reached out to take the note and stared at the handwriting on it carefully.

Suddenly, he rubbed his eyes violently as if he had seen some shocking news, and then looked carefully again.

After confirming that it was correct, he suddenly became extremely anxious and could no longer remain calm. He jumped up from the rocking chair in one step.

"Hurry up and help me change my clothes! These despicable guys actually dared to kidnap and sell the girls in my mansion. They are so bold! I will personally take action and bring them to justice! Let's go..."

Lord Lin roared in anger, his voice was deafening, and the whole house seemed to tremble.

After saying that, he strode towards the door, ready to start a thrilling battle with those evil forces.

……

Ah Er was as fast as the wind, and he rushed back like lightning with Captain Li.

The human traffickers were about to open the tunnel and transfer the kid. They had sly smiles on their faces, as if they thought their plan was flawless.

However, they did not expect that A Er and Captain Li would return so quickly.

At a command from Captain Li, the guards rushed toward the courtyard like tigers descending from a mountain. Their agility and well-trained demeanor swiftly surrounded the compound. The traffickers panicked and tried to flee, but there was nowhere to go.

The guards, holding sharp blades, pressed forward, forcing the traffickers into a corner. Despair and fear filled their eyes, and they began to beg for mercy.

"You damn human traffickers, today is your doom!" Captain Li shouted angrily.

The guards showed no mercy and quickly subdued the traffickers. They tied them up with ropes and gagged them, awaiting further trial.

The entire arrest process was clean and efficient, leaving the traffickers no chance to resist.

"Tsk tsk, snap, clean and neat, got it, perfect!"

"Use cannons to kill sparrows!"

Ah Cai widened her eyes and looked at the clean and neat movements of the guards in the Marquis' Mansion with admiration, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

He exclaimed in admiration, "Wow, these guards are so impressive! By comparison, those ordinary constables pale in comparison! So cool!"

Ada hugged her tightly, with a smile on his face, and gently weighed the little person in his arms.

She said softly, "This cannot be compared. These guards are warriors who have experienced the baptism of cruel war. They have fought bloody battles on the battlefield and witnessed countless life-and-death moments. This little thing is nothing to them..."

Ah Cai nodded thoughtfully, then added with some worry, "Well... that's true. It's like a lion fighting a rabbit after all. But I'm still worried about those poor children and innocent girls who might suffer misfortune! That's why I quickly lured them over for help."

He then muttered, "How strange, why is Guard Captain Li so excited today? Could it be that after seeing the human traffickers, he couldn't wait to kill a few of them with his own hands?"

However, only Ah Er knew that the reason why Captain Li was so anxious was not just because he saw the hateful human traffickers, but more importantly because he was afraid that his young lady would also fall into the hands of human traffickers.

Can you not be afraid?
