Chapter 940 Painkillers

Early on, Archie mentioned that there was something wrong with his water, and Roxanne had indeed detected a faint smell that usually occurred only when a certain type of bacteria was mixed with water.

However, the problem was that it was a type of bacteria that only survived under laboratory conditions. The fact that it was found in the wilderness meant that someone must have intentionally placed it there.

As such, the first thing Roxanne did was to check if there was anyone else around. However, she had a clear view of the entire field. Apart from them, there was no one else.

Due to that, Roxanne assumed it was a coincidence that the water had such a smell and not because the bacteria were actually present.

Little did she expect that someone had added the bacteria to the kids’ water. Roxanne’s heart clenched when she thought about the symptoms one would experience after ingesting the bacteria.

“Mommy, it hurts so much…” Benny muttered, grabbing his mother’s hand. He had finally caved in, unable to hold on any longer.

The boy held Roxanne’s hand briefly before letting it go as he was so weak from the pain that he barely had any strength left.

Roxanne was heartbroken when she saw Benny’s hand falling to the ground. She picked up the boy’s hand and stroked it gently while mumbling, “Don’t worry. Everything will be fine. I will cure you guys soon.”
