Mount Shasta.
On the derelict building’s top floor, the moss-covered walls were a clear indication of how shabby it was.
In the innermost part of the buildings, there were a lot of people gathered in the underground garage.
The yellow-haired boy who guarded the door, the people who gathered in the middle to play cards and drink, and the people shouted around the table…
“Gaelen, how are we going to deal with that woman? The boss didn’t settle on a time. We can’t just wait here.”
A person at the table said to the man sitting in the main seat, pouting with his small eyes.
Gaelen Butter seemed to ponder something and was staring at his cards with narrowed eyes.
Before Gaelen could speak, the yellow-haired young man with pockmarks all over his face next to him spoke first.
“You only know how to make noise. It’s just a woman, and she hurt our boss. How can we deal with her? Is there any way for us to not wait here? It’s because those annoyed people refuse to leave in the mountains.’
“That’s true.”
The person who spoke first scratched his head and muttered.
“I heard that the police have arrested the people at the pier. I guess it was the two boys who were caught leaking the information. The two boys used to be very tight-lipped. They have been caught several times and have never confessed anything. I don’t know this time…”
His voice was very low, but the people were gathered together inside and outside. Everyone heard his words.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a long silence.
They didn’t know what had happened to the two boys. They didn’t see how the two boys were caught with their own eyes, but they knew that the two boys must suffer a lot- they couldn’t stand the interrogation and leaked the news-what happened would make them fall down and pray for their lives in a low voice.
After a strange silence, they heard a loud noise.
The poker table was kicked over, and the man spat out curses.
“It’s so noisy that my head hurts!”
Gaelen threw away the cards in his hand, and kicked the table that had been overturned.
He threw away the cards in his hand, and his depressed face looked even more hateful. “Paul was right. She’s just a woman. What can we do? A group of motherfuckers are still shouting here. Why don’t you go and find the two boys back? What the hell does the pier have to do with me?”
The pier’s not his place. he won’t lose anything if the pier was destroyed.
However, he didn’t know if the two men who had been arrested were alive or dead.
While they were arguing, a yellow-haired boy who was guarding the exit of the corridor ran in crazily.
“Boss, we found Mark and Louis in the forest!”
