Chapter 674
After walking for a long time, the truck suddenly slowed down and stopped. The back door of the truck was opened, and a few men of Southeast Aelinne descent climbed onto the truck. They stuffed four bags of bread and two bottles of water into the container.
The men then rudely tore the tapes off the children's mouths and untied their hands and feet.
"Daya, be gentle. If you hurt them, we won't be able to sell them for a good price."
"Little brats, don't shout, do you hear me? If anyone shouts, we'll beat them up!"
One of the men threatened fiercely.
The little princess and one of the princes, who were already crying from fright, immediately whimpered in fear.
Even the other prince had tears in his eyes.
Only Ollie picked up the bread and water and ate silently.
The crooks looked at Ollie in surprise. This child was very bold.
He reached out and lifted Ollie's little face. His eyes were instantly filled with amazement. "This child's eyes are really beautiful."
Then, he said, "He's just a little silly and doesn't look very bright."
Ollie looked at them in confusion and curiosity, then lowered his head to continue eating.
"Alright, one of you stay here and watch them. We'll stand guard outside. If anything happens, drive away immediately."
After the men left, Ollie said to his three friends, "Don't be afraid. The bread is delicious and sweet."
The pampered little prince and princess would never eat this kind of dry bread on the usual days. However, when they saw Ollie eating so happily, they abandoned their fear and ate with him. The bread that was clearly not delicious seemed to have become especially sweet because the few of them ate it together.
The world of children was sometimes that simple.
The crook who was left behind to guard them could not help but take a few more glances at them.
These children were really crazy!
Suddenly, a series of gunshots came from outside.
Everyone was shocked. The crook who was watching the children dashed out of the truck and saw a heavy truck coming toward them.
When they saw the logo on the heavy truck, the crooks were shocked. One of them muttered, "Damn it, why are men from Strix here?"
While they were talking, Strix's truck was already closing in on them. The gunshot from before was from Strix's truck. Someone had fired a shot into the sky as a warning.
The leader of the crooks signaled one of his subordinates to get in the truck and watch over the children while he led the others toward the oncoming heavy truck.
"Oh my, isn't this Mr. Klub? Are you just passing by, Mr. Klub? My men will make way for you now."
The leader of the heavy truck was a man from the southeast. His name was Klub, and he was one of Strix's higher-ups.This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
Klub looked at the crooks coldly and said, "What are you transporting?"
"Just a few tons of tobacco."
As he spoke, the leader of the crooks ordered his subordinates to bring down a few large boxes of tobacco. He said to Klub, "Mr. Klub, this is a small token of our appreciation!" They did not want to complicate matters.
Klub glanced at the boxes of goods and sneered. "Tobacco? Hmph, I heard that what you have in your truck is what Strix wants. Who gave you stragglers the guts to intercept Strix's business?" The leader of the crook felt uneasy.
What Klub was talking about was naturally not the children. Instead, there was a very special plant hidden in the tobacco.
They just took the children because it was convenient.
Just as the leader was about to quibble, a scream suddenly came from behind.
The leader's expression changed. He turned around and saw that the subordinate he sent to guard the children had been thrown out of the truck. His subordinate also looked pale.
He had fainted and looked like he had been poisoned.
At the same time, a few children ran toward the end of the truck and were using all four of their limbs to climb down the truck.
At the same time, thick smoke billowed out of the truck.
Everyone's expression changed drastically. "Oh no, there's a fire!"
The things in the truck could not be burned.
Not only were the crooks anxious, but the people from Strix were also anxious.
Everyone rushed to the truck to
out the fire, but the man sitting
quietly in the heavy truck, who hnet
not shown his face up till now, fixed his dark blue eyes on Ollie.
"Little brats, I'll kill you all!" A crook walked toward the children with a ferocious expression.
"Mister, your butt is on fire too!" Ollie kindly reminded him.
The man didn't take it seriously at first, but soon, he felt a burning pain in his butt. He turned around and saw that his butt was indeed on fire.
The man couldn't care less about dealing with the children now. He frantically patted the flames on his body that was getting bigger.
Upon seeing this, Ollie said to his three companions, "Let's run."
As he spoke, he took out a round button. The button turned into a round disk that was big enough to fit all four of them. It was ready to fly them away.
The two princes and princesses
were stunned. They forgot their fear and stood on the round disk

excitedly. Just as they were about to fly away, someone blocked their
Way.
Ollie looked at the person and was stunned. He tilted his head to the side in confusion and called out, "Daddy?"
His voice was soft, and his eyes were beautiful. He looked adorable.
The man's body trembled slightly when he heard Ollie call him "Dad". Then, he looked at Ollie with a deep gaze. They seemed to be in a deadlock.
Ollie, whose head was still tilted, sized up the man he thought was his father. Then, he said, "You're not Daddy." Number One looked at Ollie in silence. He did not expect to meet Draxton's child again five years later.
This child should be the one in Isabella's belly back then.
He waved his hand at Ollie and said, "Come down."
Although the person in front of him looked exactly like his father, Ollie was still a little hesitant. In the end, he put away the round disk and walked toward the man. Ollie was extremely curious about this man, so in the end, he did not leave.
Moreover, he was very sensitive to other people's emotions. He felt that this man would not hurt him.
Ollie cocked his head to the side and
examined the man for a moment. Then, he teaned forward and sniffed
the man
ike a puppy. He blinked and
asked curiously, "Uncle, why do you look like my father? Do I have two fathers?"
The corners of Number One's mouth twitched. He thought to himself, "Your mother doesn't have two husbands."
He replied, "Of course, I'm not your father. Child, come with me. I won't hurt you."
Ollie immediately nodded happily and followed Number One into the car with his three friends.
The people in the heavy truck didn't even want what they initially came for and had already driven away.
The crooks were left to extinguish the fire, but in the end, they were not able to save anything.
What was even more unlucky was that the Lockwood family and Malakai's men found them shortly after.
Naturally, the culprits were caught and revealed Strix's involvement.
"The children were taken by Strix's men. Malakai, have you ever seen Strix's chief?"
Malakai shook his head. "Strix is very mysterious. He's even more mysterious than the headman back then."
Draxton and Isabella could not help but frown.
Meanwhile, Ollie was in Number One's arms, and the two of them were staring at each other.
Neither of them spoke as they studied each other in silence.
