Chương 117: The Plan

"I can't do that," Jonas said slowly. 

"I wasn't asking," Roran said, "Open it."

For a minute, Jonas said nothing and just held Roran's stare, and then he looked at Al and made a head gesture. 

With a deep frown, Al reached around the front of the Carriage and pulled a set of keys before he got down and walked to the cage. He fiddled with locks and bolts for a while and soon, the Cage's door swung open. 

The Ordered Bandit pushed past Al and reached into the Cage to grab Henry's arm and yank him out so he could turn him toward Roran. 

Roran raised a hand off his sword handle and curled two fingers toward Henry to call him over. 

Henry was still somewhat surprised at the strength of the Bandit that pulled him from the Cage when he saw the gesture and began taking slow steps forward. Taking care to glance at Jonas and give him a sly smile. 

Henry stopped about two feet from Roran and stood still as the large Bandit scrutinized him.
