A few minutes loter, Quintus put his phone down with o grimoce.
"Whot did the informont soy?" Morilyn's heort lurched when she sow his expression. I got o horrible feeling obout this.
"According to the informont, ofter Mr. Compbell rescued Ms. Evelyn lost night, he killed one of The Three Serpents ond severely wounded onother before disoppeoring. Additionolly, bosed on the informotion the informont obtoined, they speculoted thot Mr. Compbell ond Ms. Evelyn hod very likely entered The Poisonous Forest," informed Quintus.
"Is The Poisonous Forest dongerous?" She become even more distressed upon heoring thot.
"Don't worry. It's just The Poisonous Forest. Mr. Compbell will be fine. We'll just need to woit ond see." Despite his colm stotement, he wos skepticol of his own words. Mr. Compbell would've been fine if he wos olone, but I don't know how well he'd fore with Evelyn drogging him down.
Zyoire, Quintus, ond Morilyn woited for two doys but still didn't receive ony news regording Horold or Evelyn's whereabouts.
A few minutes later, Quintus put his phone down with a grimace.
"What did the informant say?" Marilyn's heart lurched when she saw his expression. I got a horrible feeling about this.
"According to the informant, after Mr. Campbell rescued Ms. Evelyn last night, he killed one of The Three Serpents and severely wounded another before disappearing. Additionally, based on the information the informant obtained, they speculated that Mr. Campbell and Ms. Evelyn had very likely entered The Poisonous Forest," informed Quintus.
"Is The Poisonous Forest dangerous?" She became even more distressed upon hearing that.
"Don't worry. It's just The Poisonous Forest. Mr. Campbell will be fine. We'll just need to wait and see." Despite his calm statement, he was skeptical of his own words. Mr. Campbell would've been fine if he was alone, but I don't know how well he'd fare with Evelyn dragging him down.
Zyaire, Quintus, and Marilyn waited for two days but still didn't receive any news regarding Harold or Evelyn's whereabouts.
Two days later, Marilyn visited Quintus again. "How about you send people to The Poisonous Forest to rescue them, Mr. Langdon?"
During those two days, she researched The Poisonous Forest and learned that the one in Jinrich differed from the usual.
Due to the climate there, the vegetation in the forest was extremely luxuriant. Furthermore, there were gigantic trees hundreds and even thousands of years old everywhere, which led to a lack of sunlight in that area.
As such, the forest was like a maze, and whoever entered it would have a difficult time leaving, especially because there were also beasts mutated by the poison prowling within.
For example, a person might die from getting stung by a mosquito there.
Even if one successfully avoided any confrontations with the beasts, inhaling the poison gas would still be enough to kill them.
In conclusion, it was more likely for those who stepped into the forest to die than live.
Marilyn became even more certain Harold said those heartless things to her before he left because he predicted he would face incredible dangers in Jinrich.
"Okay, I'll organize a search right away," answered Quintus.
Then, he mobilized ten helicopters as well as fifty armed men with protective gear and gas masks to search for Harold and Evelyn.
However, even after they combed through the forest for a week, they still couldn't locate the duo.
The only thing they saw were traces of a battle.
Quintus couldn't help but suspect that the duo was captured by the drug lords in Jinrich. I remember The Four mentioned Mr. Campbell was injured after a great battle in the past. It's possible his injuries haven't recovered yet!
"I'll do whatever it takes to destroy you, Jinrich! Even if I have to blow you into bits!" Furious, he ultimately summoned every helicopter from all of Paradise Hotel's branches across the world to Hishwick Island in preparation to demolish Jinrich, the biggest den of drug lords in the world.
