Hostage exchange.

Caesar looked at Wu Jin with shock on his face. It seemed that he couldn’t figure out they’d rushed up from below. A long time later, he nodded his head and waved his big hand, “Okay!”

Wu Jin stared closely at Caesar’s micro expressions and the direction of his gaze, trying to guess where the ‘commander’ was hiding, but in the end, he could find nothing.

“......” Wu Jin: There’s no way to read Brother Caesar’s mind. I’ve heard the captain say before that Caesar didn’t think at all during competitions...

Caesar chattered and expressed, “We’ll exchange inside.”

Wu Jin nodded and followed Little Ran into the inner room.

The curtains were heavy, and the furniture inside was simple. A portrait of Queen Marie hung on the walls––this was the Queen’s bedroom in the Palace of Versailles. She had been married here, performed duties for the royal family here, and even given birth here. In France, the Queen’s birth was considered a celebration for the whole of Versailles, and in order to confirm that the prince was ‘born to the Queen’, everyone was allowed to visit while the Queen gave birth.

When Marie Antoinette gave birth to the Dauphin and Dauphine, the area in front of the walls, cabinets, tables, and chairs had been filled with curious visitors, and at the moment of the baby’s birth, they applauded or booed, based on their political stance.

It was difficult to tell if Marie had gotten more glory or more humiliation in this place.

Caesar placed Vera behind the curtain and gestured for Wu Jin to hand Little Ran over, “I’ll count three, two, one, and whoever doesn’t let go is a dog!”

Wu Jin nodded. From behind the curtain, Vera reached out to him.

The wrist watch was quiet and didn’t give any warning for illegal team formation. At the very least, Caesar wasn’t attempting to give him Lan––

Caesar shouted, “Three!”

Wu Jin held Vera’s hand and let go of his hold on Little Ran.

Caesar: “Two.”

“One!”

Caesar pulled Little Ran in front of him, and Wu Jin shifted to protect Vera in an instant.

The hostage exchange was successful. Caesar hadn’t expected that Wu Jin would then plan to counter attack and kill them, and Wu Jin quickly passed the rifle behind him to Vera, switching to his bayonet––

There was a flash of red behind him, and Caesar was forced back by the gun.

Wu Jin stilled.

Vera’s combat clothing was white...

He suddenly turned around and saw Ning Fengbei, dressed in red and holding his rifle. Her face was excited and full of the excitement at ‘cheating’ on her partner, “Little Witch! Are we going to save Vera now––”

Wait a minute, where was Vera? How could it be Ning Fengbei...

The curved bayonet slashed at the curtains.

Vera was behind the curtains, controlled by another gun.

Wen Lin smiled like a fox as he stood beside Vera.

Wu Jin’s expression froze.

The leader of the Jacobin faction was fully familiar with his method of command and could even predict Wu Jin’s arrangements and set traps in advance. The party leader’s style was conservative and quite similar to a support position&#k2013;&#k2013;
