"Don't worry"

Spear comforted him in a pale tone, "We will leave safely. I swear, okay, I'm going to block the entrance. Maybe the inspector will come to Kanak in a while. You all have a little patience, bad guys."

The weather will be here soon.”

After saying that, Spier had already covered the entrance with the wooden board in his hand.

"Spiel, what time is it now?" Wei Ran finally asked.

"let me see"

As Spier spoke, he took out a copper-cased pocket watch from his pocket, opened it and took a look, "Eight forty-four in the morning."

Almost 12 hours left...

Wei Ran muttered secretly, letting Spear cover another thick wooden board from the outside, and listened to Heidi and Vanessa as he moved the oil drum to suppress the two wooden boards.

Carrying the food back into the small space, sisters Heidi and Vanessa put on their own clothes and boots, while Wei Ran opened the lid of the milk can and poured some thick milk into each person's lunch box.

fish stew.

After filling his stomach with the leftover baguettes from last night, Wei Ran, who finally had shoes to wear, also chose a spot farthest away from the small space in the basement to urinate, and then took a pee from the gas mask bag.

I dug out the gold-cased hunting pocket watch that I found with the IOU, and after some fumbling, I adjusted the time to 9 o'clock.

It was already September 15th, and just like the previous week, German bombers were busy laying bombs on London day and night.

Compared to the busyness in the sky, Wei Ran lay down on the canvas and dozed off again. He didn't know when Spier planned to escape, but he knew very clearly that the weather would get worse tonight, and by late night, it would be

A strong northeasterly wind blew.

So will it be tonight?

Compared with this extremely important question, even Spear did not have the answer. He still did not give up on another seemingly insignificant "small question": of the two language tasks this time, one of them learned Latin,

What exactly did the other person learn?

Wei Ran had a lot of guesses about the answer to this little question, but since there was no corresponding situation to help him "load the database", those guesses were just guesses after all.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But just when he was about to give up this little trouble, he heard a faint knock on the door from the first floor of the lighthouse.

Almost as he ran to the blocked stairs by the light of the flashlight, Heidi and Vanessa also ran over one after another.

A moment later, with the sound of footsteps on the stairs and a soft "squeak", the wooden door on the first floor of the lighthouse was also opened by Spear.

"Spear, I'm here to bring you today's food."

A slightly hoarse voice said, "Also, have you copied everything I asked you to copy?"

"The copying is ready," Spear said enthusiastically in French, "Please come in."

After saying that, the wooden door on the first floor of the lighthouse was closed again with a "squeak". Immediately afterwards, Wei Ran listened to the hoarse voice and asked in another language, "Speer, you got what I need."

?"

"Let's go up and talk about this," Spear said in the same unfamiliar language that Weiran could understand.

"Let's chat here, I have to rush back."

The hoarse voice whispered anxiously, "Yesterday the Abraham family failed, and their bodies were on the beach not far away. Spear, we can't wait any longer, when can you repair the diving suit and boat?"

?I have already paid, I don’t want to wait any longer!”

Spear replied awkwardly, "Teacher Vicente, now the diving suit and the boat are almost repaired, but the most important oxygen bottle has not been purchased. There is no oxygen bottle, let alone an air pump. We only rely on the air pump."

The best you can do to refill the cylinder with air is..."

"I don't want to hear this"

Vicente asked in a low voice with dissatisfaction, "Spear, how long will it take for me to get those things?"

"I promise you that I will have everything ready before the end of this month."

Spear vowed, "So please wait a little longer, and there will definitely be the northeasterly wind I mentioned in October, and there will often be thick fog on the strait, and the chances of escape will be much greater by then."

"You better not lie to me!" Vicente said in a gloomy tone.

"of course not"

Spier said firmly, "I want to flee to England with your family, and your daughter Eva and I are getting married. How could I lie to you? What's more, if I cheated on you, how would I leave France?

?Even after arriving in the UK, I really don’t have any friends.”

"As long as you know better!" Vicente finally asked worriedly, "Can it really be ready by the end of the month?"

"It will definitely work!" Spear vowed, "I swear on my mother!"

"I can't wait until the end of the month, Spear. You'd better get everything ready within a week."

After Vicente said this, Wei Ran also heard the "squeak" sound of the door closing again, as well as the slightly heavy footsteps of Spear going upstairs.

Until the footsteps disappeared, Heidi, who was also eavesdropping, asked in a low voice, "Victor, do you know Hebrew? Can you understand what they just said?"

"I...I won't"

Wei Ran sighed secretly and asked with a normal expression, "What about you? Don't you know how?"

“How could I possibly know Hebrew?”

Heidi said as she walked back, "Speer did teach me some words, but I didn't remember a few at all."

Wei Ran sighed secretly, but he was caught in a contradiction. He already knew that the second language task he learned was Hebrew, but he would rather not understand the conversation just now. That way, he would not have to worry about whether he should

The shocking news revealed in Spear's words was told to Heidi.

Forget it...just pretend you don't understand for now...

Wei Ran sighed when he sat back on the canvas bundle. At the same time, he also became more vigilant about Spear. He didn't know what the relationship between Teacher Vicente and Spear was, let alone what Spear was planning to do with him.

The fact that the other party's daughter got married was somewhat true, and he didn't even know whether Spear left with the three of them.

But he only knows that the weather is going to change tonight. If he wants to escape, tonight is the last chance, because by tomorrow night, the British air battle will change its offensive and defensive position, and this port will probably be cleaned into rubble by British bombers.

.

"Are you worried?"

While he was secretly calculating, Vanessa came over and sat on the canvas next to Wei Ran. After Heidi got into the small hidden space, she immediately turned off the flashlight.

"I'm just a little nervous," Wei Ran replied half-truthfully.

"Me too"

Vanessa sighed, "I don't know why, but I've been very uneasy since hiding here."

"You can't believe Spier?" Wei Ran asked in Latin deliberately.

"I don't know...you! You know Latin?!"

Vanessa turned around in surprise, widened her eyes in the darkness and looked at Wei Ran who was very close at hand, and then asked in Latin, "Didn't you say you couldn't do it?"

"Did I say that?"

Wei Ran said as if he was making a fool of himself, "I'm just saying, do you think I can do it? You think I can't do it."

"Okay" Vanessa patted her forehead, "How come you know Latin?"

"I'm French, of course I know Latin." Wei Ran replied in a matter-of-fact tone.

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't ask"

After Vanessa finished speaking, she laughed, then brought the topic back and asked in Latin, "Where were we talking about just now?"

"Let me think"

In the darkness where he couldn't see his hand, Wei Ran deliberately pondered for a moment, and then casually said in Latin, "I ask you, do you not trust Spear."

"Why do you ask that?" Vanessa asked.

"You said you've been feeling uneasy since you came here." Wei Ran threw the question back again.

"I don't know either"

Vanessa sighed in the darkness, and after a moment of silence she suddenly whispered, "He is a Jew, and he has many letters written in Hebrew. My sister doesn't know who he is communicating with, and even more...

I don't understand the content of the letter.

It was like the two of us were communicating in Latin, and my sister could hear everything but had no idea what was being said.

My sister once said before that she always felt that Spier had many secrets. Especially before France surrendered, he sometimes even made her feel that they were completely different worlds."

"Aren't they already planning to get married?" Wei Ran said casually.

"yes"

Vanessa sighed, "This is what makes me most confused about how to evaluate Mr. Spear."

"How to say?"

"Mr. Spear has discussed with his sister that after they get married, they will move to the UK and move our tailor shop to the UK."

"Moving to the UK?" Wei Ran raised his eyebrows, already vaguely guessing Spear's plan.

"To get out of debt at Reno's Grocery Store"
