Chapter 1261

In a village where mostly the elderly resided, Patrick wandered through the empty streets, hoping to find some answers. "Excuse me, sir, do you know where the Logan family lives?" he asked an elderly man he happened upon.

The old man simply pointed to his ears and gestured, indicating his hearing wasn't what it used to be.

The woman spoke in a local dialect, which Patrick couldn't quite grasp, but her hand movements gave him a rough idea of which direction to head in.
