Chapter 452 Underground Passage
Shortly after that, South managed to master the skills and command effectively
Not only that, but they even managed to capture a good number of the giant balls. As a string was
attached to each of the balls, the edge of their boat was full of strings attached to it not long after
Two hours later, the three of them returned to land fruitfully
After getting on land, Silas took them to collect the gifts. At this point, Gianna said, ‘I’m a little thirsty.
Let me go buy some water
Silas stopped her as he was afraid that she would get lost. He charged, “Let me go and get it. You’ll
collect the gifts here with South Don’t go anywhere, I’ll be back as soon as possible
After giving it some thought, Gianna responded, “Sure.”
Subsequently, Silas left while the number of people in line was longer than she expected Seeing the
number of people waiting in line before her, Gianna felt like giving up. South, do you still want the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtgifts?”
South looked at her, feeling befuddled. “Why not?”
“There are so many people here. I’m afraid it may take a while.”
Meanwhile, South’s brows furrowed into a narrow frown. “It took us so much effort to catch those balls.
Why don’t we want the gifts even before I know what they are!”
Gianna agreed with him. This was human nature what mattered to people was not the price of the gifts,
but the surprise that came with them.
Perhaps people would stop wanting the gifts the moment they found out what they were.
“Sure. Let’s keep waiting then. The moment she finished, a man in a suit walked past them and saw
them by chance. “Are you guys here to collect gifts as well?”
Gianna nodded
Then, that man stopped in his tracks and sized her up before letting out a smile. “How long is this going
to take? Why don’t you come with me as I know the owner of this business well. I can bring you
through another way.” The first thought that crossed Gianna’s mind was to go with him as her patience
had indeed run thin. She reckoned that she had never wasted her time in this way before.
However, on second thought, why was this man willing to help them for no reason?
So, she decided to reject his offer tacitly. “We’re good. We’ll just wait here.” That man edged in. “Don’t
be so courteous! Don’t worry, I’m not a bad guy. I’m the patrol officer on this island, and I was just trying
to help seeing how you have a kid with you. Please don’t overthink!” Upon hearing this, Gianna asked,
“You’re a patrol officer? You know the owner of this island?” That man responded, “Of course! It’s Mr.
Nolan!” After hearing this, Gianna felt at ease. She smiled and indicated, “Sure. Please help us then.”
Right away, a demonic smile appeared on his face as he took Gianna and South in one of the
directions. After taking many turns and walking a distance, it felt like their surroundings were getting
more unfamiliar. At this point, Gianna felt that something was not right. “Didn’t you say we were going
to get our gifts? Why are we getting further and further away?” That man responded calmly, “We just
need to keep going and we’ll eventually reach the underground passage that was built when they first
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbuilt the theme park. We’re almost there!” As he spoke, he stopped right outside a door of a room.
Then, he pushed the door open. “We’ll go in from here.” Standing outside the door, Gianna looked
around, realizing that there was a living room and a kitchen, and it seemed like someone lived there.
This place might perhaps be where this man lived. Gianna began to look skeptical while a cold sneer
crept over her face. Why would an underground passage be built in a staff’s room? How old does he
think I am? Three? “Are you really the patrol officer here?” asked Gianna. That man replied, of course. I
have a badge. Why would I lie to you?” Gianna sneered. “Can you tell me what on earth Mr. Nolan was
thinking when he decided to build an underground passage in one of the rooms of his staff?”
The smile on the man’s face instantly froze as he tried to explain himself. “No one lives here. I only rest
here occasionally.”
