Chapter: 1382
They continued watching the footage, and noticed that Stefan walked around for a while after exiting the suite. He was able to find his way out of the sanatorium, and chose to go down a narrow winding path, heading straight towards the deepest ends of the forest. Soon enough, he was out of the camera�s field of vision.
�No! Mr. Hunt is heading straight towards Dragonmount!� One of the security guards shrieked all of a sudden.
�Dragonmount?� Renee seemed confused.
�Dragonmount is the most dangerous area within the forest, as it is infested with venomous snakes and savage beasts! We normally wouldn�t even allow the average person to enter, and Mr. Hunt is an injured blind man� If he�s been gone for so long, I�m afraid�� The guard gulped, not daring to say anything further.
Yulia shot the guard a dirty glare and comforted Renee once more. �Don�t worry, our sanatorium hires professional forest rangers to clear out Dragonmount regularly. There shouldn�t be that big of an issue, so I�m sure we can find him.�
�I know, and he�s not an average person either. He�s going to be safe.� Renee took a deep breath, her gorgeous face lacking emotion. �Mrs. Walker, you can head back for now, I�ll go look for him.�
�No way!� Yulia refused immediately. �Dragonmount is a complicated area, there are just too many dangers out there, with dark pits and ponds, and occasional sightings of wild boars and wolves too!
You have no experience in dealing with that, so let�s just have a forest ranger look for him instead.�
�Didn�t you say there shouldn�t be that big of an issue, and that you�re sure we can find him?�
�Ah�� Yulia seemed awkward. She wasn�t exactly lying when she said finding him wouldn�t be an issue, it�s just that they would likely find him� dead.
�Don�t worry, Mrs. Walker, I�m a tough girl, I�ve been through worse. You have nothing to worry about.�
Renee said, ignoring Yulia�s protests and left for Dragonmount alone.
Passing through the crooked muddy roads into the narrow mountain valleys, the only sounds she heard were the rivers flowing lightly, occasionally partnered with the calls of wild animals. It was indeed rather frightening.
�That guard really wasn�t exaggerating things, Dragonmount is way too dangerous. No normal person would be able to handle it at all. And Stefan is blind� He would have died long ago� Heck, some tiger might be chewing on his bones right this minute!�
�No, no way, Stefan isn�t just an average guy, he�ll be fine!� Renee held her breath anxiously, forcing herself to stop overthinking.
�As long as I don�t see any blood trails or bones, that means the situation isn�t as bad as I think. He must still be alive!�
With her sharp observation skills, the woman had been searching far and wide for any trace of the man. Throughout the entire journey, she could see footprints within the wet mud, and they were no doubt left by Stefan.
Hence, she figured that she could find him as long as she just followed those footprints.
However, after about a few miles deep into the forest, the footprints disappeared out of nowhere.
Moreover, there was a clear sign that something heavy had been dragged away, accompanied by a faint trail of blood. JrNovels.com
