Chapter 0030

Soon, Miranda was the only person left in the room.

Fortunately, after the alarm had gotten off, the lights became brighter. She took a couple more steps and found a hint diagram.

After successfully passing the second room, she heard some noises from a crowd not too far away.

Frowning, she looked in that direction. The exit must’ve been blocked by the huge crowd.

Just as Miranda was debating whether she should also join the crowd, another wave of people came from behind. Now, she couldn’t turn around anymore.

Somehow, someone had pushed her up against the wall while someone else had stepped on her feet.

By the time she processed what had happened, she was already plastered against the uneven wall with her chest against the wall. She couldn’t stop herself from gasping in pain.

Suddenly, she felt someone’s gaze on her. When she looked up, her eyes met Hansel’s.

Hansel saw the sorry state Miranda was in. His heart ached, but he was also angry. As he’d thought, it was her. He hadn’t imagined someone shouting “Mimi” earlier.
