Chapter 406 Timely Rescue

Abigail didn’t accept the pears. Instead, she replied shyly, “I’m allergic to pears. I want to ask about someone. Do you know Kelly Hagl? She’s the adoptive daughter of one of the families in this village.”

The woman looked slightly puzzled after hearing her inquiry. Then, she nodded. “Yes, I do know her. She lives in the upper village. Do you see that mountain? Climb over it, and you’ll arrive at a new village. That’s where her house is.”

“Thank you,” Abigail said politely.

Then, she began to ponder as she looked at the mountain not far away.

Even though the mountain isn’t high, my safety will be at stake as I go deeper.

Moreover, I did notice that this woman obviously looked confused when I asked her about Kelly just now.

She’s lying. She doesn’t know Kelly at all.

Abigail pretended to place her entire attention on the mountain as she came to the conclusion that the village was very peculiar in a bad way.

In fact, she could clearly feel a few families peeking at her from inside their houses.

“I wonder if my phone will have a signal in the mountain.” Abigail suddenly turned her head and said to the couple, who were standing by the door and staring at her.

The man immediately said, “Of course, there will be. Otherwise, how do you think we contact the outside world? Don’t worry. Our village isn’t that underdeveloped. We have everything here.”

Once again, Abigail knew he was lying, for her phone had no signal the last time she checked.

Just when she was in a dilemma, a voice belonging to another stranger sounded, interrupting
