In order to ensure that you will not suffer any losses in close combat, I turned around and found my kitchen knife on the cabinet and put it in my cloak, went forward and opened the door, and the face appeared in front of me as expected.

Luo Ning naturally placed one hand on his chest. Although it is not suitable for a battlefield to start a war, he must also prevent problems before they happen and avoid being taken first by the opponent without any defense.

Duke has been dressed up and bowed down to salute respectfully.

"Thank you for your previous help, now you're basically packed up."

Since we have decided to start a war, there is naturally no need to involve Donina and let the girl leave a psychological shadow.

Luo Ning looked back at the empty room.

"If you are here to bring Tonina back, I can only say sorry, she is asleep."

Duke waved his hand with a smile.

"Don't get me wrong. If Donnina falls asleep, then let her stay here. I'm here to ask you to do a favor. Do you still remember the cage in Donnina's house? The dog has been dead for a long time, and it's useless to keep the cage, but it takes up space. So I decided to throw it away, but it's a bit heavy. Sofia and I can't do it. I have to ask you to help."

Is it really just a cage?

Duke's attitude changed a little too quickly. He had to take the girl back without any room for relief, but now he let the girl stay here, which is questionable.

The other party also thinks this place is not suitable as a battlefield?

Just so happen, since that's the case, let's start another place and start the war.

Luo Ning smiled back.

"no problem."

The two walked on the dark street one by one, and Xiaoxue fell on Duke's shoulder in front. Luo Ning kept her right hand on her chest at all times.

Walking to the door, Duke stood aside and made a gesture of inviting him.

Luo Ning smiled and gestured, then stepped into the room with one foot, looking directly at the suitcase on the beam of the living room. If the suitcase changed, the other party would definitely find that his important items were lost, which means there was no problem with the previous guess. The purpose of calling himself to come was to take action.

Within the sight of the eyes, there was no sign of movement of the suitcase.

He was stunned for a moment. Could it be that the other party asked him to come over and was it really just to carry the iron cage away?

There was a sound of closing the door from behind, and Duke took off his coat and hung it on the clothes hanger at the door.

"Mr. Austin, forgive me for telling me a lie. I just asked for some advice." The tall man took off his coat and walked around the young man blocking the front and walked straight to the sofa in the living room and turned around and reached out to signal.

"Come and sit."

No matter what!

Regardless of whether the other party notices it or not, they have to do it tonight, just look for a suitable opportunity.

Luo Ning walked over and sat on the sofa opposite. There was a coffee table less than one meter wide in front of the two. He adjusted a sitting position that was easier to get up to avoid being unable to react immediately when he was nestled in the sofa in an emergency.

"What's the matter?"

Duke always had a smile on his face, but his smile seemed a little gloomy at this time and he spoke slowly.

"Did Donina tell you something?"

Luo Ning was stunned. He didn't expect the other party to ask this question, because he was too sudden and unable to answer for a while.

"If you have heard something from Donnina that cares so much about Donnina, then you don't have to worry. I admit that I don't pay enough attention to her. This kind of child usually does something very unusual to attract the attention of people around you, such as lying to you and making up things that have never happened."

Duke looked at the young man with a gentle tone.

"I think she said that the cage was used to lock her up. You made an excuse to come in and check the situation inside the house, just want to see the cage, right?"

He paused and continued to talk nonsense.

"By the way, her eyes were a little bruised a few days ago. She accidentally made it herself. The next day I asked her what happened. Later, I must have told you that it was domestic violence, right?"

He looked quite heartbroken, lowered his head and crossed his hands together.

"In any case, the cause of these misunderstandings is caused by Sofia and I not caring for her enough. From now on, I will correct it. Although you are more competent in caring for Tonina than Sofia and me, the child cannot leave his parents after all, right?"

The other party learned from the previous lessons and wanted to talk to him in a more gentle way.

"If Benjamin and those rats hadn't seen those facts, they would have almost believed your nonsense." Luo Ning thought to himself.

I believe you, the old man is so bad!

However, the other party used a lie to talk to him, which means that the other party still knew nothing.

At this time, Duke walked over to Sofia who had been standing at the bedroom door. Sofia came over and sat down, lowered her head and sobbed.

"Donina is a good girl, I owe her."

"If this sentence was said from the living Sophia, it would be quite touching, but at this moment, there was only a cold corpse in front of her."

Luo Ning looked at Duke who controlled the corpse and puppet to play the emotional card, and complained in his heart.

"It just happened to take advantage of the topic that the other party said to continue to numb the other party, make the other party careless, and look for opportunities that one blow will definitely hit."

As soon as I thought about it, I rubbed my hands and looked embarrassed.

"Well, Mr. Duke, as you expected, Donina did tell me something. I had always believed it before, so I tried my best to take the girl away from you. I'm so sorry, but as you said, the girl lies to win your attention and concern. There is no problem with the starting point. You have to promise that the girl cannot hold her accountable after she is sent back, otherwise the girl will have to stay with me."

Duke's face turned red, showing a sincere smile, and got up and stretched out his hand.

"I promise, never, if Donnina complains to you after she returns, you can leave Donnina with you forever."

Luo Ning stood up and reached out and held the other person's palm, thinking with a sneer in his heart.

"Of course Donina won't complain to me after she comes back, because she will become a corpse puppet like your wife."

Let go of his hands, Duke was enthusiastic.

"I'll take you back and bring Donnina back by the way. I don't think she's resting yet."

Luo Ning shrugged and smiled.

"As you said, that's just an excuse she doesn't want to come back."

Duke walked in front and Ronin followed closely behind. Lies had completely numbed the other party. The moment the other party's finger touched the door handle was the best time to take action. At that time, the other party's vigilance would be minimized.

three……

two……

one……

Luo Ning looked at the hand that touched the door handle and wanted to open the door, and instantly pulled out the slender and slightly blunt kitchen knife from his arms and stabbed Duke's neck from behind.

"Puff"

The next second, there was a muffled sound, and the kitchen knife completely penetrated the other person's neck.

Blood slowly flowed out from the cutouts on both sides of the blade and flowed into the collar of the linen shirt along the neck.

Release his hand and take two steps back, Duke's body fell straight down.

Luo Ning's lips were dry and her chest was inverted.

Although I killed Rensade last time, I was in a darker environment at that time, and Rensade was a monster. This time, I killed someone like me in the candlelight, which made me difficult to adapt for a while.

He stood there and was trying to adapt, but a loud noise rang behind him.

Luo Ning, who was awakened, quickly turned around and instantly pulled out his pistol from his arms to pull the trigger.

After seeing Sofia, who was also lying on the ground, she breathed a sigh of relief. The atmosphere was so tense, it was a bit dizzy.

Sophia's fair white skin exposed on her neck began to lose its original luster at this time and gradually became dark and purple.

This is a sign that the corpse puppet has lost the ability to control the awakened person and has recovered the essence of the dead body and started to rot.

Retracting his eyes from the corpse, he turned around and walked to the fallen Duke, leaning down to check.

My inevitable event is to protect Donnina. Now that it has been completed, I should get the combination card, and by the way, Duke's own original fate card.

Pull out the kitchen knife from the body, then grab Duke's arm with a black texture like a plant root on it. The kitchen knife cuts through it and the blood slowly seeps out.

A moment later, the pattern appeared in the blood stains that flowed on the ground...

"Duke, Awakened, Second Professional Physician."

You can indeed see two undetectable horizontal bars in the upper left corner of the blood pattern.

Luo Ning stared at the pattern and suddenly thought of something.

“Where are the combination cards?”

Since the inevitable event has been completed, the pattern of the combined card should appear at this time.

"Isn't this how the pattern of the combination card is obtained?"

He stood there and murmured in a low voice.

"Or the inevitable event has not ended to let Tonina escape from the clutches, and there are other things to do?"

While thinking, I glanced at a surprised scene from the corner of my eyes.

Duke, who was lying quietly on the ground, suddenly raised his hand quickly, and a gun suddenly appeared in his hand. The black muzzle had now aimed at the young man's left arm.

"Bang"

The moment the loud noise appeared, Luo Ning jumped sideways and drew a parabola and flew towards the sofa beside him.
To be continued...
