Chapter 812
Ken went closer to Olivia and sniffed the air. Immediately, he frowned.
The smell was a little pungent, and it was like a mixture of a lot of smells. It smelled so weird that it caused Olivia and Ken to instinctively cover their noses.
'TH go down and take a look."
Olivia yanked Ken and opened the flashlight on her phone. "I'll go with you."
The two of them walked down the stairs very carefully. As they got closer to the basement, the smell got stronger.
The mixture of odd smells seemed to have a strong stench of blood within it.
Olivia had a foreboding feeling, and her hand tugged tightly on Ken’s arm. Her heart rate increased rapidly as well.
Please, let nothing have happened to her...
The door of the basement had been locked by a huge lock, and since Ken had no key with him, he was ready to call someone to bring some tools down.
"Wait."
Olivia took a bobby pin down from her hair and asked, "Do you know how to open locks with this?"
Ken was stunned for a while before taking the bobby pin from Olivia. "I’ll try."
Although he looked inexperienced, he still managed to open the lock in the end.
Ken was about to push the door and enter when Olivia tugged on his arm once more.
"I don't think there's anyone else inside. Can you hold the light? I’ll go in."
"No. What if there's a trap?”
'There won't be."
With Olivia's familiarity with Dorothy, she knew that Dorothy would definitely not spend her time and effort on any trap since she was a simple- minded person.
If she indeed threw Kate down here, she would be sure to make sure Kate died alone and hopeless.
As for that weird stench...
Olivia had her own guesses. Ken may be Kate's brother, but he was still a male, so it was only appropriate that he steer clear of this.
Olivia took a deep breath and pushed the door open anxiously.
As the door creaked open, Olivia could see that there was someone lying in that dark, musty, smelly basement.
