…

On the saional Hospital sat in darkness The ht veil Unwilling to be outshone, the sparkling stars decorated the entire night sky Few people alking about the hospital, and the cobblestone paths froloith specks of blue under the ht, and the two police on the bench in front of Seth’s room were slumped over in sleep Their occasional snores punctuated the loneliness of night in the hospital

Aht, a bird suddenly cried several ti Seth, who should’ve been in a deep sleep, opened his eyes and looked around There were no other people in the room except for himself The as half open and covered with a white veil of a curtain A breeze froht’s huan to billow like waves The weather report had predicted heavy rain the next day

Soon after, the bird cried out froain, this time five times Seth’s two hands had been cuffed to the bed, but there was a length of chain connected to the bedpost on each cuff to allow hi able to ed the pilloith his head In theunderneath the pillow

Seth shi+fted his head closer until he could pick up the key with his mouth, then turned over to sit up and bend over With the key in his mouth, he poked it several times into the lock on the handcuffs before he could fit it in Turning the key slightly with his teeth, the right cuff finally opened!

Seth glared at the offending handcuff and violently shoved it onto the ground He then picked up the key with his right hand to unlock the left cuff Now that his arms were freed, he stretched his arms, which had been cuffed for several days, and was able to sit up and re was not fractured but slashed several tih it had hurt like hell when it’d happened—and he loathed the doctor who had proposed the idea—he’d stopped cursing when the plaintiff’s lawyer had visited and had actually confirmed his injuries

He had to ree into the sneakers he had prepared in the earlythe curtains, he jumped outside theSeth’s roo distance fro shaped stairway outside histhat led directly to connect to the first floor—this had originally been a fire escape route that the hospital had added according to regulations His stepfather York had purposely planned for hi that the first trial could no longer be delayed, and because the trial had been live-streamed, it was possible that he wouldn’t be acquitted as previously agreed upon,he would end up in jail for sure But Seth didn’t want to go to jail at all, and his stepfather York also didn’t want to see his authority challenged, so he had itive, it was still better than spending the rest of his life in jail Also, if he left Gered on indefinitely,the iron handrail, Seth walked down the zigzag stairs step by step, his pace hurried When he finally ca placed by the corner of the stairs This was for him, and he knew that because hiswhen she’d visited a few days ago Seth opened it to see a change of clothes and car keys, as well as a passport under a different name, a wallet full of cash, and several new bank cards that weren’t under his name or his parents or relatives That way, he wouldn’t have to worry about being tracked when taking o to any EU country without worrying about a visa

Seth quickly reed into the clothes in the bag, then carried the bag and the car keys as he strode out A few nurses were on the night shi+ft in the hospital lobby, and it was brightly lit with security lights at the door Seth turned the corner and looked back to smirk at the castle-like hospital He walked out without looking back

Not far from the hospital was a black SUV that nearly ht Seth knew this car had been prepared for hi, he only had to press it to unlock the doors remotely

Just as he was about to walk over, he suddenly saw several people cloaked in black walking out fro the road They stood by the SUV All of the bodies, it was obvious that they weren’t nice people Theh to send chills down Seth’s spine

Seth’s heart dropped He retreated a few steps and was about to run the other way But as he turned, several lasses walked out froroup of people in black came from in front and behind to surround and trap hi shook uncontrollably, and he nearly knelt on the ground Looking at the people in black, he asked, “Who…? Who are you people?”

The black-clothed figures regarded him silently, still as statues No one replied or s were paralyzed with fear, and he fell to the ground

Suddenly, two loud claps sounded froures Several of them moved aside to clear a path With widened eyes, Seth saw a voluptuous woht hair and a round face She wore Prada baroque glasses Someone followed him—Seth’s stepfather, York

Thank God! York crossed his He stumbled up

“Father!”

York nodded at hi as he stood solelasses were so large and round that they covered half of the woht, Seth couldn’t see what she looked like at all
