Chapitre 227: Chapter 227

The little thief ran along the dark underground passage, carefully scanning her surroundings. She had taken a general antidote to neutralize the poison, just in case. Her breathing was unsteady, her eyes stung with unshed tears. The terrible image of her dear accomplices dying a heroic death flashed through her mind. These memories caused an ache in her heart. She just wanted to lie down and fall asleep. - {Is the sedative taking effect?!}

The girl immediately took out the sound transmitter and called her uncle. «Leon, save me, please! I'm in the secret underground passage, not far from the pier and the lighthouse... They are after me… The royal... Investigators…» - She whispered the last words. The sedative carried her just as far as that, and then she collapsed.

The little thief struggled to open her heavy eyelids and saw the familiar gloomy room in the headquarters of the assassins guild. A man was sitting next to her, his head drooping low.
