NovelEnglishChapter 420 What Queenie said gavea glimmer of hope. I snapped back to reality, grabbed my phone, and dialed the number that I remembered by heart.
I heard the monotonous beep from the other end of the line. It persisted until the call ended automatically. No one picked up the call.
I didn't want to give up, so I made the call once more. Again, no one picked up. I kept trying and trying until a female mechanical voice toldthat the number I called was no longer available.
"This isn't right. Something bad must've happened to Colin. I need to find him." Frantically, I tried to get up to pack my luggage. But my body was seized by fear. My trembling legs couldn't hold my weight, and I slumped to the ground. A searing pain spread from my knees and elbows.

You can't do anything there. They won't let anyone enter the affected area." As a man, Andrew was more level-headed during a crisis.
"What do we do, then?" Queenie supportedand checked on my wounds. Then, she went to the bedroom to get sointment for me.
I had never felt this scared, not even when Felix had schemed against me. My mind was a mess. Other than crying, I did not know what to do.
My world was crumbling down.
Colin truly had spoiled me, so much so that I lost my analytical skills and rationality when something bad happened. I could only cry. "Queenie! Colin is there. Is he injured? What if I can't see him anymore? I need to find him, Queenie. I need to be there for him." "Don't jinx it. You're here. Colin will do everything he can to cback. Quit overthinking and crying. Our priority now is to get more information from them. Then, we discuss what to do next. Stay strong now, Luna. You can cry later." I could cry later? What bad advice was that? "I want to go to Lagado now.
"We need more information about Colin. If you want to go there, you can. But you need two people to go with you, people who can help you or advise you when something comes up. Oh, does Colin's family know that he's working there? "They have the right to know what happened to him. Also, ask the supervisors at school. We 1/2 need every piece of information we can gather now," Andrew said.
"You're right. Let's proceed with that plan. I'll call Colin's home." I had calmed down too.
I couldn't cup with another solution, so I decided to stick with Andrew's plan.
I grabbed my phone and called Uncle Austin. But after sthinking, I decided to call Felix.
Uncle Austin had a weak heart. Things could get complicated if he had a heart attack when he heard the bad news. Calling Felix seemed to be the safest option. At the very least, there wouldn't be any complications.

When Felix picked up the call, he asked with a surprised tone, "Lulu, did you dial the wrong number?" He was probing carefully.
I didn't have tto play his game.

I interrupted him impatiently. Fussing over minor details served no purpose. "Listen, this is not the point. NO At the moment, we need to get more information about Colin. I want to head to Lagado. What about you?
