Chapter 196 Ghost Castle

() On the stage, Nadya had completed her last move. Before leaving the stage, she winked at Ron with a smile. Obviously, she noticed Ron's presence, but now Nadya was smaller than

A few months ago, he had obviously become more mature, and things like before where he would make the wrong move on stage just because he saw Ron would no longer happen.

"The ugly duckling has not only turned into a white swan, but has also become accustomed to his identity as a white swan." Ron was sitting in the audience, thinking this way. When the white swan has fully realized that he is a white swan, the former

The young and shy beauty gradually disappeared from Nadya, but another kind of elegant and graceful beauty became more and more obvious on Nadya.

"So, Ron, this woman is also an opportunity for you. We Americans like to see conquests, and one of the signs of conquering an enemy country is the beauty who can conquer the enemy country. Just like Alexander the Great married Darius III

The same as his daughter. Of course, generally speaking, this has to be done after the victory. But if you can abduct someone else’s princess before the war begins, just like Ia did back then.

Song. That's also very good. Now some people are worried about your relationship with the Swan Princess. What are they worried about? Very simple, they are worried about who captured whom. So, if you really

If you like this princess, the most important thing now is to make people believe that it was you who captured her, not the other way around." Barton continued his teaching to Ron, a young man who was a junior.

"If I was the one chasing this Swan Princess, I'm sure no one would worry about me being the captive. You have to think about the truth behind this. Well, the following program is actually good for you.

It’s not interesting anymore, is it? Just do whatever you want!”

Ron smiled at Barton, stood up, took advantage of the intermission, left his seat, and walked backstage.

Ron understood the meaning of Patton's words. Indeed, if it was Patton who had the affair with the Russian woman, of course no one would worry that Patton would fall to the Soviet Union. The reason is simple. Patton's big mouth made his political attitude, especially

On how to view the Soviet Union, his attitude is so clear, which is enough to dispel other people's concerns about this. However, he can really imitate it.

What he did? Ron knew that he could not take this path. In fact, Ron had always known that he felt more like a technocrat than a majestic general. Suddenly he changed his mind.

His style will only make others more suspicious. However, Barton's reminder is still very valuable. Ron has another way to achieve a similar effect.

After World War II, with the unfolding of the Cold War, McCarthyism was established in the United States for a long time. If it were not for Mr. McCarthy’s help, the two bombs and one satellite of the Rabbit might have taken longer. When McCarthyism was rampant

During that period, even figures like General Marshall were investigated, and even more technical officials were investigated and persecuted. However, there is a

People will never be investigated. That is the real masters of the United States - the wealthy people on Wall Street. In fact, Ron has accumulated a certain amount of wealth relying on those patents. As a time traveler,

, he also has a certain understanding of what will bring wealth in future generations. As long as he squeezes into Wall Street before McCarthyism becomes rampant, such problems will never become a big problem.

With this thought in mind, Ron came backstage.

Ron didn't have any familiar friends backstage this time, but the star on his collar still helped him. Although the gatekeeper didn't let him in, he still agreed to help him go inside to inform him.

"General, you have to understand that there are a lot of disheveled celebrities inside, so I can't let you in. However, I can bring you a message." The old lady at the door looked cheerful.

.

Of course Ron only agreed. After a while, the old aunt came out and told Ron: "Miss Nadya is still waiting for the dressing room. She will come out soon after she has changed her clothes."

Ron found a bench nearby and sat down. When a woman tells you "I'll be ready soon" when changing clothes, the "I'll be ready soon" is usually much longer than the "I'll be ready" you're used to.

For example, now, Ron feels as if he has been waiting for centuries, but Nadya still hasn't appeared.

Just when Ron almost couldn't bear it anymore and planned to trouble the old lady to check again, he suddenly heard this:

"General Ron, I really didn't expect to meet you here!"

Ron turned his head and saw a middle-aged man wearing a second lieutenant's uniform walking over. Ron recognized this man. In fact, not only Ron recognized him, but there seemed to be not many people in the United States who didn't recognize him.

This famous second lieutenant is Clark Gable.

Clark Gable's crew had a day off today, so everyone came together to watch the show. Gable, who was relatively familiar with these female stars, was sent out by the captain to ask for photos and autographs from those female stars. So, he

Met Ron here.

"Ah, it's Clark. Are you here to visit your old friends?" To be honest, Ron and Gable were not familiar with each other, but it would be nice to have someone to talk to while waiting boringly.

"Yes, it's been a long time since I saw those lovely girls. General, are you waiting for someone here?" Gable asked.

"Waiting for my girlfriend. She is changing clothes and is said to be 'coming out soon.'" Ron smiled and shook his head.

"Ah, General, you really need to wait. As far as I know, the time it takes for those ladies to change a piece of clothing is enough for us to go to Berlin for a walk. Oh, by the way, yes

Which girl captured our hero?"

"You should ask me which beauty I captured." Ron replied, "I captured a white swan."

At this moment, the backstage door opened again, and Nadya, who had just changed into a white dress, came out.

"Ron!" She flew towards Ron like a little bird and ran into his arms. "Have you been waiting for a long time? There are too few locker rooms here. It took me a long time to wait for my turn.

."

"It won't be long actually." Ron said, "Shall we go for a walk?"

"Well, I will listen to you!" Nadya said, holding Ron's arm.

"Clark, I'll take my leave now," Ron said to Gable.

"You are free to do as you like. Congratulations, General, I now believe you are a good hunter." Gable faced them with a trademark smile.

After walking out of the theater, Ron and Nadya came to the streets of Edinburgh.

"Where are we going?" Nadya asked.

Ron raised his head, looked around, then pointed in one direction and said: "Go there, Edinburgh Castle is right there. When you get to Edinburgh, you have to go to the castle. You know, it's hard to find one in the United States.

A real castle.”

"Okay, I listen to you!" Nadya took Ron's arm and shook it gently.

Although Edinburgh Castle can be seen from a distance from the street, it is still very far to walk there. Fortunately, a taxi happened to drive over. Ron stopped it with his hand, and then got into the car with Nadya.

car.

After getting into the taxi, Nadya asked Ron about the history of Edinburgh Castle. To be honest, Ron didn't know much about the castle, but he vaguely remembered that the castle seemed to be related to William Wallace. So he

He told Nadya the story of William Wallace. Of course, Ron also knew nothing about the true history of this legendary Scottish hero. The story he told was actually exactly that of Mel Gibson.

The story in the movie.

This story full of romantic heroism obviously moved Nadya. This can be easily seen from her big and flickering eyes.

The taxi stopped near the castle. Ron and Nadya got out of the car, and Ron asked: "How much does it cost?"

"Ah, no need. Your wonderful story is already worth the price of the train ride. Although I know that what you said are all fabricated things, sir, I have to admit that you fabricated them very well.

Sexy," the driver replied. He then said to Nadya:

"Girl, it must be a blessing to have such a boyfriend who can tell stories. But be careful, such a man is very capable of deceiving others."

"Ron won't lie to me." Nadya shook her head.

"Did he tell you that this castle is a very romantic place? Actually...well, I'd better not say it."

"Ron, what are you not telling me?" Nadya opened her beautiful big eyes and looked at Ron.

"No, I just made it up temporarily. To be honest, I know nothing about this castle." Ron said innocently. Then he turned to the driver: "Sir, can you introduce us to this castle?"

?”

"It's better not to do it." The driver said, "I'm not as good at making up stories as you are. If you want me to tell you, I can only tell the truth."

"You've piqued my interest," Ron said. "I really don't know."

"Well, let me tell you! Edinburgh Castle is a famous ghost castle. It is the most famous ghost castle in Europe and even the world. Even though it is daytime, a major feature of Edinburgh Castle is that it is also haunted during the day.

. But Miss, you don’t have to be too afraid.

Our Scottish ghosts are just a little naughty, but not evil. The ghosts have killed less people in ten thousand years than an idiot doctor can kill in a day. The most they can do is scratch them with their invisible hands.
