Eyes Suddenly Widened
Lucille looked at the girl closest to her and poked her arm gently.
The girl noticed and looked at Lucille. She saw Lucille slowly tracing a word on the back of her hand.
It read: Sanders.
The girl's eyes suddenly widened.
Because that was her surname!
"How do you know-"
"Shh."
Lucille gestured for her to keep quiet.
The girl named Rachel Sanders immediately shut her mouth, but her dull eyes were shining with hope.
She was a little anxious and wanted to ask about Lucille's
background and whether she had come to save her. However, Lucille herself was also a delicate little girl. Even if she had some kind of unique identity, it wasn't like she could be that skilled. Thinking of that, Rachel was a little disappointed.
Lucille looked at the other girls in the storage room. Before she came to Niterol City she had memorized all the information and photos of the missing people. Including Rachel, she could identify four of the five people who had been locked up. Only the middle-aged woman with disheveled hair, who was curled up in the corner, remained unknown.
Lucille lowered her voice. She pointed at the woman and asked Rachel, "When did the person over there get kidnapped?"
Rachel glanced over and honestly replied, "I don't know. She was here when I arrived, but she gets taken out every once in a while. Apparently, she..." Rachel made her voice as quiet as possible and added, "Gets assaulted by those men. Lucille frowned.
Was that the case?
She kept feeling like something was off, though.

The middle-aged woman sitting in the corner looked at her good skin and red face. She didn't look like she was being abused at all.
While Lucille was sizing up the woman, she opened her eyes and looked at Lucille.
Lucille sneered to herself.
Indeed. No wonder she felt like the scent on the woman's body was so familiar. It was the same smell of wood on the other kidnappers.
This woman was definitely in cahoots with them.
She was the last line of defense in the underground factory.
She was one of the kidnappers pretending to be a victim and got locked up with the actual victims. That way, if anyone were to sneak in undercover, the woman could notice them and inform her accomplices. She was a spy.
Lucille had to admit that it was ingenious.
Just like Rachel said, this woman would be taken away every once in a while. The rumors that she was getting taken advantage of were all just a front.
In reality, after the woman was taken out, she went out to feast on delicious food. When "new goods" were delivered to the basement, the woman pretended to have been taken back and continued to lurk amongst the victims.
Lucille was able to figure it out because she had encountered the same situation when she was on another mission. On top of that, it was likely that it hadn't been long since the middle-aged woman returned to the basement. The smell of wood on her body confirmed Lucille's suspicions.
In that case... since there was one of the kidnappers among the girls, what about. Kylian's room?
Lucille frowned.noveldrama
At that moment, Rachel couldn't hold back and asked directly, "Since you know my name, are you here to save us?"
She was too careless.
Lucille felt a little regretful. She shouldn't have exposed her identity-from the very beginning just to get the victim to lower her guard.
It didn't matter, though. Since it who emerged victorious.
