When the little figure passed the corner where William was, William hugged her with his right hand and covered her mouth with his left hand to prevent the little guy from shouting.
Maybe he saw clearly that it was William holding him, so the little guy quickly calmed down after struggling for a few seconds out of fear.
He held the little girl in his arms and retreated to a secret place. After the gangsters who were walking towards him disappeared, William lowered his head and looked at the little girl in his arms.
"Shush",
The little girl nodded in understanding.
William said again worriedly, "I will let you go now, but don't shout, do you understand?"
Another round of nodding.
Looking at the child whose whole face was covered by his left hand but staring at him with big eyes, William couldn't help but be fascinated by the clear and fearful big eyes of the little devil in his arms.
Seeing that the little girl did not move, he said, "OK, you are a good child, I will send you away now, and then follow me, do you understand?"
Nodding, then shaking his head, when William released his hand covering her mouth and wanted to put her down, the little girl immediately hugged his neck with her hands, hanging on him like a koala.
"My name is Emily Kyle, Mr. Devonshire, thank you for saving me, I can talk to you,".
"Stop, stop, stop, listen, kid, if you want to chat or take photos, you have to wait until we go out. Then you can chat like this if you want, and you can take as many photos as you want.
Now tell me where your parents are? And can you come down? In England ladies don't hang on to me like you do."
"I'm only 6 years old. What does it matter? You don't know that I just ran a long way to hide from those bad guys, and now I can't walk anymore."
Seeing that the little one refused to come down, William could only hold her in his arms while walking upstairs to the unoccupied room, "What about your parents?"
Maybe it was because she was being held by an adult, or maybe she was born very independent, but it only took a few minutes for little Emily to calm down.
But when she heard William asking about her parents again, the little guy couldn't help but tighten her arms around William's neck, and lay her head on William's shoulder.
"My mother said that my father is currently serving the army and has no time to come back. My mother has to go to work and has no time to accompany me here, so I asked my aunt to bring me here."
Emily said in frustration, "Mr. Devonshire, I can hardly remember what my father looks like. The last time I saw him was my 4th birthday. Will you protect me?"
"This," looking at the little kid with a cute face and clever eyes, he remembered that he was raised by his mother since he was a child, and he felt pity for the little guy in his arms for no reason.
"Yes, I will definitely protect you, my child. I am the Grand Duke of England. The responsibility of a noble is to protect a cute, smart, and beautiful little princess like you."
"Thank you, then you are my knight, right?"
"That's right", as soon as William replied, Emily kissed him on the face, which made William even more pitiful for this clever kid who had only met for five minutes.
"You clever guy".
"Bang, bang, bang" was heard. After a moment's thought, I knew it was the sound of a sniper rifle. She hugged the frightened Emily tightly and said, "Don't be afraid. You'll be fine as long as I'm here. I promise to protect you."
of".
"Yeah", Emily nodded and lay on William's shoulder again without making a sound.
I found an unoccupied room, locked the door, and looked out the window. I saw a dozen security guards in black suits or uniforms lying on the ground.
Then another burst of "bang, bang, bang" gunshots came from the roof of the White Palace.
"Sunday, tell me what's going on".
"What?" Emily looked up at William in confusion, "Mr. Devonshire, who are you talking to?"
"Haha, I'm talking to my smart butler, he will tell me what's going on."
"Can I listen? I want to know if Aunt Fanny is safe now," Emily asked quietly.
"Okay," William thought for a moment, put his hand into his coat pocket, took out a miniature earphone from the storage space, and carefully put it into Emily's ears, "Okay, you can say hello to Sunday now."
.
"Hello," Emily said uncertainly, "Where are you, Mr. Sunday?"
"Hello, Miss Emily, I am Sunday, Mr. Devonshire's personal smart butler. How can I help you?"
"God, I can really hear you," Emily exhaled in surprise, "Where are you? Why can't I see you? Is it the same as calling you?"
"You are right to understand this. Ms. Fannie is currently in the lounge on the east side of the White Palace. She is not in danger for the time being."
"Okay, little guy, let me understand the situation here first, and I have to take you out."
"Okay," Emily nodded, "Let's talk later, okay, Mr. Sunday."
"Okay, Miss Emily".
William rubbed Emily's hair and said to Sunday, "Are there any hidden dangers in hacking into the White Palace server?"
"no sir".
"Okay, then tell me a safe route that can avoid the sniper on the roof."
If he hadn't met little Emily, William would have run out long ago, and he would have had to hide on the roof with the sniper like now.
"Understood, sir," Sunday News reported a few minutes later, "Sir, I have hacked into the server inside the White Palace.
However, there is a hacker who is cracking the server. From what I understand, the hacker is planning to crack the entire White Palace server, and the estimated time is 40 minutes."
"Where is Benjamin Arthur?" William took out his mobile phone from his pocket and put it on the table. "Open the 3D virtual imaging. I want to know all the routes and the location of the gangsters."
As soon as he finished speaking, the mobile phone fired several three-dimensional light beams, and the three-dimensional structure of the entire white palace was displayed, and there were no less than a hundred red dots marking enemies.
"Cool", when William was thinking about what to do, Emily in his arms couldn't move his eyes away from the 3D virtual imaging, "What is this, what is this?"
"On Sunday, you explain it to the little one."
Rolling his eyes, the kid was very cute, but William, who had never raised a child before, was troubled by her strong curiosity.
Fortunately, there was Sunday, an artificial intelligence that would not be impatient, and could answer Emily's questions while reporting to William on the situation in the palace.
After listening to the report, William lowered his head and thought for a moment, "So there are not only more than a hundred gangsters outside, but they also want to control all the weapons of the United States through the server here?"
"Yes, sir, according to my calculations, if no one stops them, once the egg guide system is controlled,
If the outside world and the United States are unable to storm and retake the White Palace, we will face either a world war or the complete destruction of the entire White Palace by the United States themselves."
"Well, for the sake of my money and wealth, it seems that I have to help these old Americans deal with the troubles." William grinned and laughed, "I hope Benjamin Arthur will not be captured by the White Palace twice in a row.
