The warden who guards the witches

"Steal?" Aiden raised his eyebrows when he heard this idea.

If there is no way to solve the problem head-on, you can only resort to underhand tactics.

The only tricky thing about the Red Shark Pirates is the "Wordless Code". If they steal this thing... they are just a group of ordinary pirates, and it is impossible for them to kidnap people from the top prisons on this continent.

"Ah, I just said it casually." Veronica waved her hand quickly.

Although Neville Drake's pirate group base is on Red Shark Island, they may have already started their actions when Anne was transferred to the autonomous state. It is hard to say where Neville Drake, who holds the artifact, is now.

Moreover, holding such an artifact, he will definitely be on guard on weekdays. As long as he uses the artifact to promote the rule of "no stealing", it is basically impossible to take the artifact from him.

But Aiden had a flash of inspiration at this time because of Veronica's casual mention. Before, the idea of ​​stealing the "Wordless Code" flashed through his mind, but he didn't think deeply about it. But now the timing of Veronica's mention made him realize a certain plan.

"It's a good idea." After a moment of silence, Aiden nodded to Veronica.

Although the details still need to be further considered, this method... is still quite feasible.

"Sorry, I didn't come up with any particularly good ideas." Veronica just thought that her boss was being polite.

"I will arrange a solution for this matter in the near future, you don't have to worry too much." Aiden replied.

"Do you need me to do anything?" Veronica asked, she had no doubts about her boss's ability.

"As usual, just do your job well." Aiden thought for a while, "Help me pay more attention to the movements of the prisoners, and report to me in time if there is any situation, just like today."

"Understood." Veronica saluted straight.

After Veronica left, Aiden continued to deal with the work at hand. He reached out and took the stack of letters in the corner of the desk, opened them one by one and read them.

Ever since Anne Drake was sent to the Rose Iron Prison, he has been paying attention to letters from the outside world.

According to the case of the Capital Prison four years ago, the Red Shark Pirates would send a threatening letter to the prison before robbing it.

It is this arrogant style that makes the Red Shark Pirates famous on the Sea of ​​Tranquility, as if a thief must release a notice before stealing rare treasures. If they did not announce it in advance, but quietly robbed a group of prisoners in the prison, the impact would probably be much smaller, and some people would even doubt whether they really did the prison rob.

Aiden guessed that this time they would not miss this opportunity to increase their popularity. The more famous the pirate group is, the more criminals will want to follow. Judging from the behavior pattern, Neville Derek also has strong confidence in the "Wordless Code" in his hand.

This behavior pattern is a good thing for this side to some extent. An arrogant opponent is much easier to deal with than a cautious opponent. With the threatening letter, we can know the approximate action time of these pirates.

The fact that Anne Drake was sent from the Empire to the Autonomous State was actually carried out in secret. It would be difficult to quickly find out about this matter with the intelligence network of the pirate group alone.

But Aiden believed that they must have known about this matter. It was Melissa who directed their spearheads to the Rose Iron Prison. She asked the ancestor to send people to capture the pirate princess, and she would definitely find a way to reveal Anne's current whereabouts to the Red Shark Pirate Group in time.

If these pirates act quickly enough, they should receive the threatening letter in the next two days...

"Got it!" As soon as he thought of this, Aiden opened an unusual letter.

He saw a large, bloody shark emblem printed on the lower right corner of the letter paper. In addition to this letter paper, there was also a wanted order issued by the Empire for the pirate king Neville Drake in the envelope, and below it was a huge amount of money.

The other party really had no intention of hiding anything.

Aiden took the letter and read it. There was actually only one sentence on it-

"Unconditionally release Anne Drake within a week and send her safely to the Crow Ferry in the north of the city.

If you have any reply, please write the reply directly on the wanted order and send it to the ferry and post it on the notice.

I hope you will take care of yourself."

The signature is Neville Drake.

"Take care of yourself?" Aiden raised his eyebrows.

It has been a while since I was provoked by someone outside the prison, although this time it was just a letter.

From this deliberately provocative tone, Neville Drake just wanted to rob the prison in a grand manner after the announcement.

The other party also hoped that the Rose Iron Prison would respond and post the wanted order with the reply...

Although the ferry in the north of Silver City is located on the outskirts of the city, there are many people taking the boat, and the flow of people is still considerable. There is a bulletin board there for posting wanted orders.

I think the Red Shark Pirates should be lurking there now. If they post the prison's reply in this way, it will be seen by more than just the Pirates.

It seems that the other party really wants to have a fight with him on this public forum and then rob the prison?

They really want to make a big fuss about the prison rob to make themselves famous... Aiden has a vague idea of ​​his opponent's mentality.

From the prison's perspective, it is impossible to release prisoners privately. If a prisoner escapes or is kidnapped, it is just a punishment for the prison manager, but private release... is not something that can be solved by dismissal.

This kind of threatening letter has no other meaning except to make the prison break bigger.

He put the letter on the table and fell into deep thought.

Normally, from his perspective, there is no need to reply to such a letter - just the same way as the capital prison.

But after closing his eyes and thinking for a long time in the office chair, he reached out and took the wanted order.

...

In the early morning of the next day, a strange wanted order appeared on the bulletin board at the north ferry of Baiyin City.

On a wanted poster issued by the Empire for Neville Drake, the pirate king of the Coral Sea, a few lines of words were written in eye-catching red ink:

"To Mr. Pirate Drake, thank you for your letter, but I refuse your request because my favorite thing to do is to say 'no' to those who think they are right.

In addition, your bounty is very good, I am looking forward to it."

The signature below is "Eden Garrod, Warden of the Rose Iron Prison".

In addition to these lines of words, the portrait of Neville Drake in the center of the wanted poster was also painted with a monocle and a mustache in a graffiti style, and a fish was held in his mouth.
