The Woman From Hell

Marius took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to me. "I told you multiple times that you're going to cut my life short if you keep thanking me." It seemed true now that I thought about it.

He had helped me every time I was in a crisis ever since I got to know him.

My heart was full of emotion. I wiped away my tears. Picking up my feet, I walked forward.

It was getting late, and the road was somewhat unclear. I was about to turn on the flashlight on my mobile phone when light suddenly came from behind me. Marius had a long-lasting flashlight in hand and illuminated the road ahead for me. "Save your phone battery. We need it to contact people."

I was in a hurry to head out just now that I forgot to borrow a flashlight from the owner of the hotel. Thank goodness Marius had one. I smiled slightly. "Yeah." We came to the section of the road where Theo had gone missing during the day. "This is the place. They disappeared as we were walking," I said to Marius.

Marius illuminated the road ahead. "This path is also called the Ghostly Road because there's actually a branching path that leads to another direction. It's not noticeable since it's surrounded by mountains, but people often make the mistake. I think Theo and Harriet must have taken that road by mistake."

"Then let's head onto that path. Maybe we can find them." I was delighted.

"If it was that simple, the rescue team would have found them long ago."
