At that moment, the only ones alive were me, Yasmin, Eason, Michael, Zion, Rachel, Quinn, Joel, and Howard. There was also another man. He had been hiding underneath the roller coaster from beginning to end. His name was Taylor Barlowe.
The unconscious masked man dragged over by Zion was thest one. The other masked men died in the trap set by the mastermind.
"Oh no! I went too far by ident," the eerie voice chimed in, perfectlyplementing the whimsical music of the amusement park with its unsettlingugh.
"He can track us through surveince and send people after us. He must have a special shortcut. We need to find him, or else we''ll always be at his mercy." I frowned and nced at the surveince camera or the ceiling.
Manipting the game through surveince was truly a crazy act...
Suddenly, the masked man jolted awake, whimpering and wriggling. He was desperately attempting to speak. However, his mouth had been tightly stitched shut, causing blood to seep out whenever he made the slightest movement.
Quinn and Rachel averted their gaze in fear, and Yasmin instinctively avoided making eye contact as well. This was extremely vicious. I firmly restrained the masked man and freed his mouth by cutting the thread with a knife.
The masked man shouted in horror, pointing his finger at the ce where they had been sent. "He''s on this level... The lunatic... There, in the control room, he''s in it..."
Steven and Zion managed to pry open the floor. There was indeed a passage that led directly to the 14th floor.
"Be careful..." Zion grasped Steven''s arm and warned him against acting impulsively.
I nced at Steven, quickly removed the tie from the masked man''s clothing, and pulled my hair up into a high ponytail. "You two head downstairs first. I''ll confront that lunatic." If we did not eliminate him, the path thaty ahead would be even more challenging.
"I''ll go with you!" Michael stopped me nervously. It was too dangerous.
I nced at Steven without even realizing it. He seemed anxious as he returned my gaze. It was evident that he desired to be by my side too.
"Two people are too conspicuous," I dered as I brushed off Michael''s hand and retrieved the knife from the ground. I then nced at the surveince camera in the northwest corner. "You can''t go alone." Zion also stopped me.
"I assume that the person in the control room has no physicalbat skills," I remarked, ncing at Steven.
The two of us didn''t seem to need muchnguage tomunicate as he understood that my intuition would always be right.
"Go downstairs and make it seem like we''ve gone. Let''s cover for her." Steven grabbed Joel, who was still confused.
He nced at me once more. "I''ve destroyed the surveince camera in the northwest corner just now."
I couldn''t help but raise the corners of my mouth, a smile forming. This was my man... He appeared to have foreseen my actions and prepared the path ahead for me. Michael looked at me with a perplexed expression and appeared to struggle to find the right words. However, ultimately, his disappointment left him speechless. Yasmin chuckled sarcastically. "Ha... No matter how much you try to be like her, you''ll never be Stephanie..."
"Stop being so sarcastic! You''re too vicious! Why don''t you just die? If it weren''t for you, Carol would still be alive!" Rachel red at Yasmin, her anger burning fiercely. Quinn red at Yasmin with pure hatred. "You should just die..."
Yasmin nced at me, and it was as if she no longer wanted to pretend. Sheughed at herself.
"You won. This is what you want to see, isn''t it? You want me to be the target of public criticism, the object of everyone''s suspicion. You want me to experience the pain that Stephanie went through before when she wasn''t trusted and was standered..."
I frowned. Did she not do it?
"Let''s get going! We can''t afford to waste any time." Steven frowned.
Zion reassured me, "Stay safe. We''ll be waiting for you downstairs."
When they went downstairs, I quickly hid in the blind spot of the surveince camera. I was eager to discover the identity of the person lurking behind the surveince.Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.
I carefully felt my way along the wall,
then used a knife to disable the electric valve that closed the door. I
slipped inside as soon as the wall
opened. There was a not-so-long
passage ahead.
The moment I entered, all the lights turned on. It was as if the man knew I wasing.
I kicked open the control room and cautiously nced at the person sitting in front of the monitor. He didn''t appear to be capable of fighting back. There was only one person.
He was confined to a wheelchair, having lost both of his legs. He should be Benjamin, the young boy who was tragically pushed off from the roller coaster at the orphanage.
He turned his wheelchair and shed a smile at me. "It''s been a while, Stephie."
I quickly became alert and looked cautiously at him.
"When you asked me where to ce the emergency exit, I didn''t have an immediate answer at that moment. Do you know the reason behind my decision to locate the emergency exit under the roller coaster? Benjamin inquired, shing a smile.
My heart suddenly raced, and my grip on the knife tightened. What did he mean? Did I design this so-called amusement park of massacre?
