Using andeveloped by his company, he managed to narrow down the location to Summerfield. After he searched for similar sites, a few potential matches appeared on the screen.
“These two locations are too far. From Summerfteld College, it would take at least two hours to reach, so we can rule them out.” Arabella analyzed, “Of the temaining three, two have camellias. Where could Joyce and Mavis be?" It was hard to tell.

Meanwhile, on the other side.
The henchmen waited but received no code from the masked man.
Suspecting that he might be in danger, they decided to stick to the original plan and brought Joyce and Mavis to the lakeside.
Tied up and dragging stones, the girls struggled to move, constantly stumbling and falling.
With a shaky voice, Mavis pleaded, "Sir, we have no grudges against each other. Why are you doing this? If it's money you want, | can call my family for a ransom of $1,000." Joyce was also scared, "If we're to die, at least let us know why.
“Where have we offended you, or what is it that you want? At least tell us." The masked men ignored them, pulling them up and forcefully pushing them forward each tthey fell.
“Ouch.” Mavis fell again, her knee grazed by the stones. Another masked man roughly pulled her up.
Although her arms and legs were bound, Mavis instinctively clung onto the man's clothes, “Please, tell us the truth before we die" “ls someone ordering you to do this? Who is it? We're about to die, we won't be able to hold anyone accountable, just tell us." No matter how Joyce and Mavis pleaded, the men remained silent.
Mavis was dragged to the lakeside, despite her struggles. "Letgo!" Joyce darted forward and knocked the man aside. "Mavis, don't be scared" "Joyce, | don't want to die." Mavis sobbed, but then a sound echoed from the sky.

As the helicopter was about to land, the strong wind forced the men to shield their eyes. The wind was too strong, and the noise was deafening.
One of the masked men picked up Mavis’ stone, ready to throw it into the lake.
"No!" Joyce quickly got up and knocked him down.
He was furious and punched at Joyce, but Mavis saw it and rammed her head into him. “How dare you hit my friend! I'll kill you!" Seeing the girls becmore and more defiant, the masked men threw their stones into the lake.
Mavis and Joyce were immediately dragged into the water by the weight of the stones.
