Chapter 166 The Boys Are Missing

The Keaton family’s network access was suddenly cut off.

A few minutes later, the electricity was also cut off.

The servants complained, “What’s going on?”

“Even the monitors and the smart locks blackout.”

“Oh no, the fish in the thermotank is dying.”

“Lock up the backyard least the animals should run away!”

Edwin loved animals since childhood, so he kept many of them in the backyard.

They were not ordinary pets but ferocious beasts.

There were crocodiles, Tibetan mastiffs, wolves, leopards, and so on.

They were kept in a private zoo in the backyard. It would incur serious consequences if the animals ran off and hurt people.

The servants were panicking because of the unprecedented electricity cut–off.

At first, they counted on backup generators.

But now even the backup generators did not work.

“We shall check the electric net.”

“Then go over and check it out.”

“Yes, sir.”

The servants went around in a mess.

And the children were left alone.

“Alex, we succeed. Let’s run away,” said Bruce happily.

“Sure.”

They packed up and crept out of the room.

Around the house was a large open ground of greenery.

Since the surveillance cameras did not work, Alex and Bruce soon came to the first door.

Several security guards at the door were checking the electric net. No one noticed the two children slipping out from the fence.

“Alex, watch out.”

“Shh, be quiet. We should avoid attention.”

The boys went along the wall all the way to the second door.

The second and third doors were 1,500 feet apart.

In between was an exquisite garden, planted with all kinds of precious flowers.

It would be hard to find an adult hiding in it, let alone two little children.

“Alex, there are three exits. Where should we go?”

“There are fewer people here. It should be the back door.”

“Let’s go through the back door.”

“Okay.”

Out from the second door, Alex and Bruce walked on a quiet path.
