Marina was stunned and asked in confusion: "Madam Young, what are you referring to?"

"Why do I feel like I heard gunfire?"

Xia Chuqi frowned slightly and said hesitantly: "Just after we just said hunting, a gunshot came from a distance..." When Marina heard this, she quickly sat up and pricked her ears to listen. After listening for a while, she didn't hear any gunshots. She shook her head and replied: "Mrs. Young Madam, I didn't hear the gunshots!"

"Is that so, it's really strange..." Xia Chuqi's frown did not relax, and a sense of doubt had already arose in his heart.

"Mrs. Young lady, don't worry, the manor is so strict that anyone who dares to break into the manor with a gun will definitely be shot dead!"

Seeing that the young lady looked bad, Marina quickly smiled and comforted her.

Xia Chuqi responded softly, lowered his head and looked at the lake, because the sandwiches had been fed, and the fish gathered around her had already swam away.

The boat they were sitting on was quietly staying on the lake. At this moment, the sun was just right, and there was no breeze blowing by, but ripples were rippling on the lake... Looking at the lake, which was not calm, Xia Chuqi felt that the gunshots she had just heard were not hallucinations, and hurriedly urged Marina: "Marina, row the boat back to the shore!"

"yes!"

When Marina heard this, she didn't dare to delay. She quickly supported the oars and began to row towards the shore with all her might.

The ripples on the lake were getting bigger and bigger. Xia Chuqi no longer knew whether the ripples were caused by some changes or rowing. She had an unknown premonition in her heart! But she and Marina went out for a walk in the lake, without bringing her cell phone, and there was no time to call the butler Pika, if someone had entered the manor! Seeing Marina rowing well and suddenly slowed down, Xia Chuqi asked quickly: "What's wrong?"

"Young lady... I think something is wrong..." Marina lowered her head and glanced at the lake, and said carefully: "Why do I think there is something in the lake..." Her voice was a little trembling. Xia Chuqi smiled at her comfortably and whispered: "This is an artificial lake. It is impossible for anything terrible to get in. Don't worry, you can move quickly and slide to the shore!"

"yes!"

Marina took a deep breath, quickly accelerated her speed, and rowed vigorously, wanting to reach the shore as soon as possible.

Xia Chuqi also focused all his attention and stared at the changes around and on the lake. When he saw that the ripples on the lake not far away seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, and a whirlpool formed, a heart gradually hangs up.

Something was indeed wrong. This artificial lake would not form a whirlpool on the lake surface for no reason. I am afraid there was something wrong at the bottom of the lake... As the shore was getting closer and closer to him, Xia Chuqi's nerves became tense and he whispered to Marina: "Did you take the walkie-talkie?"

"Take it-" Marina didn't dare to stop rowing, pointed to the bamboo basket with water bottles and food. Xia Chuqi quickly took out the intercom from it, turned on the power, and said in a deep voice: "Hey, picka, picka, picka, are you here? I'm Xia Chuqi, I have something important to tell you-" She called on the intercom for a while, and the voice of the housekeeper picka came, and the voice sounded quite nervous: "Mrs. Young lady, I'm here. Are you and Marina still traveling to the lake?"

"We have returned and will be on the shore soon!"

Xia Chuqi responded and asked again: "I seemed to hear gunshots just now, pickup, is someone breaking in the manor?"

"Yes, someone broke in. Young Madam, bodyguard Jiashan has led several guards to the lake to pick him up. You and Marina must be careful!"

Xia Chuqi frowned. As expected, someone broke into the manor.

At this time, the one who dared to break into their manor would not be someone else, but only the subordinates sent by the Rose Cross... It seems that she thought that Scott's biting news spread throughout the major media and attracted the attention of those people. They would give up coming to the manor, but they didn't expect that the group of people would dare to break into the manor in broad daylight! But they clearly knew that Scott was not in the manor, so why did he venture into the manor?

Just as Xia Chuqi was thinking about the purpose of the people who were in the Rose Cross, Marina yelled softly and said nervously: "Mrs. Young lady, no, I found that the lake water seemed to be countercurrent. Now I rowed the opposite direction of the water flow, and we were far away from the shore!"

When Marina said this, she became more and more nervous: "It's strange that the lake water should be calm, so how could it flow backwards..." "Because someone has tampered with this artificial lake!"

Xia Chuqi said in a deep voice.

"What?

Who dares to do this?”

Marina widened her eyes and angrily scolded with anger: "I dare to betray the manor. I know that I must teach you a lesson!"

"It's not that there was a traitor in the manor, but someone used the drainage pipe outside..." Xia Chuqi analyzed thoughtfully. Before he finished speaking, his face suddenly changed. He was about to pick up something and smash it into the lake, but it was too late. He stretched out his hand directly from the lake and climbed to the edge of the boat.

This cruise ship, which was not big, also tilted to one side due to the imbalance of strength. Marina almost fell down when she was about to curse, but when she turned around, she saw a wet man popping his head out of the lake and slamming his head on the side of the boat. She was so scared that she widened her eyes and shouted: "Are you a human or a ghost?"

Xia Chuqi picked up the things on the boat and smashed them hard at the person who came out of the lake. The thing he had no choice but to smash them was not hurt. The man turned his head, shook the water droplets on his face, and showed a strange smile to Xia Chuqi.

"Mrs. Young lady, I'll help you!"

Marina didn't care about rowing anymore, picked up the oar and slapped the man hard, slapped directly at his head.

Xia Chuqi also stretched out his feet and stepped on the man's hand that was climbing beside the boat. He heard a wail. The man finally let go and fell back into the lake.

Marina was relieved when she saw this, but at this moment, Xia Chuqi's foot was suddenly grabbed by the hand. She was unstable and was about to fall from the boat into the lake.

Marina quickly reached out to pull Xia Chuqi. However, Xia Chuqi was too heavy, and the boat was already shaking, Xia Chuqi was unstable and fell directly into the lake. Marina also fell into the water.
