"He escaped?" Xavier was initially confused, but when he walked over to where Quinton was standing
and looked up, he saw an air vent around seven meters above the ground in the dark room. It was
about the size of a well, and though it was quite small, an agile person might be able to escape through
it. Additionally, there were some footprints on the wall.
"Those look like Stefan''s!" Xavier observed the footprints, realizing they were from a pair of hiking
shoes Stefan had worn before leaving home.
"He escaped from here?" Ss looked up at the narrow air vent incredulously. "No, it can''t be. This air
vent is so small, and it''d be hard for someone to crawl out of it. Plus... it''s a straight cliff beyond this
passage without anything to lean onto. If anyone tried escaping, they''d surely fall to their death!"
"What... What did you say?" Xavier''s eyes grew wide, and he quickly crawled into the passage and
punched open the iron grill on the air vent. Dim light entered the room, making it look more eerie.
Xavier stuck his head out of the air vent, and was shocked to see the scene before him.
"No! It can''t be!" Bewildered, Xavier became unsteady and fell back down. He looked dazed as he kept
muttering, "Stefan wouldn''t leave from there. He''s not that dumb!"
Quinton frowned, then crawled out of the air vent and looked outside. It was just as Ss said-there
was nothing except vast darkness and an endless cliff. The biting wind made him feel lonely, and he
quickly went back down. Quinton had experienced many dangerous things, but this was terrifying. "Yes,
you''re right." If Stefan did crawl out of that narrow passage, he might fall and die immediately. It was
more likely that he used another method to escape.
"Ugh..." Ss knew that the situation was bad, and he rubbed his hands together, feeling ill at ease.
"I''m so sorry, I didn''t expect that he would crawl out of here. We thought-" "Sorry?" Xavier''s eyes were
wild as he rushed over and strangled Ss." What''s the use of havingws if saying sorry could change
things? If you''re sorry, crawl out of this hole and see what it feels like to die like that!" He couldn''t
imagine what Stefan had experienced, and was determined to seek revenge for him. He lifted Ss up
by the cor and tried to stuff him into the passage.

Instantly, the guards rushed in to stop him, ready to fight. "What are you doing? Let Mr. Drago go!”
Quinton also tried to stop Xavier, and said seriously. "Let him go. It was an ident." "You''re right-it''s
an ident. So, it''ll also be an ident if I throw this rat out of the hole!" Xavier was so furious he
couldn''t think straight. He was determined to make Ss pay with his life.
