Chapter 593 Ask For Help
"Art imitates life. That book must have drawn its inspiration from somewhere." Elspeth touched a poplar tree. "I bet your friend must have come here before."
Callum looked a little hesitant. "It's been a while since I contacted this friend of mine. Let me see if I can get in touch." He took his phone out, but the signal in the mountains was bad. When they neared a signal tower, they finally managed to get connected. Callum went through his contacts and made a call, and it went through quickly.
"What is it, Callum?" Callum's friend asked calmly.
Callum frowned. "It's about your novel called The Village. Where did you get the inspiration for this setting?"
His friend asked in puzzlement, "Why the sudden question?"
"A friend of ours got kidnapped to a village, and it's just like the one you described in your book."
The friend asked coolly, "Is your friend called Yelena Sullivan?"
Callum froze. "How do you know?"
"Where are you now?"
Callum looked around him and told his friend his location.
His friend solemnly said, "You're in the village, aren't you?"
Noticing what his question implied, Callum asked, "You're here too?"
"I'll pick you up in ten."
Ten minutes later, a handsome silhouette came out of the cloud of dust before them. Elspeth narrowed her eyes, but she said nothing.
"It's been a while, Federick." Callum smiled.
Federick wasn't fazed. He nodded and looked around, then his gaze landed on Elspeth.
Callum said,
