The Mystery Red Umbrella
We Lag-Again We Fail

The dozens of bodies of the girl found inside the old castle kept her busy. A police line was set up, some journalists were covering the news of the incident.

Bodies that had rotted in two nights were being evacuated, some ambulances were ready to carry the bodies for autopsy.

Families of victims who saw the news and who knew their families were missing rushed to the site to determine whether their missing relatives were victims.

The officers were confused because all the victims were young girls. The pentagram in the middle of the room where the bodies were found answered all curiosity so they guessed if the women were victims in a perverse ritual.

The crying of the victims' families broke out, Anna was reviled by so many questions by curious reporters. He tried to answer as much as possible so that no one knew the problem of the box. Anna even lies by saying that she and Barrow are looking for fugitives but they instead find the bodies of the victims of the heresy ritual.

Whether they want to believe it or not, he doesn't care. Anna looks for Barrow who doesn't look as soon as the police arrive. Barrow went out of nowhere, so Anna looked for him, but his companion was nowhere to be seen. Strange, don't tell me Barrow's hiding out for fear of being interrogated.

The news of the discovery of the corpse made the public afraid let alone there was an appeal from Anna to be careful especially for girls. Anna forbade them to go out alone for the night and asked the citizens to be vigilant until the problem could be resolved. She fears the box will take another victim but unbeknownst to her if the number of victims is one and Mariana wants her to be the last special victim.

"I'm sorry, that's all I can say" Anna said as she walked past reporters who swarmed her because she wanted to find Barrow.

"Please answer, Miss Anna. Who's the fugitive you're looking for?" a reporter asked that because Anna had not answered him.

"I told you, we can't break it!" Anna was still trying to get out of the crowd of reporters.

"If so tell us, does the fugitive have anything to do with the deaths of the girls who were victims of a heretical ritual?"

"No!" anna replied as she walked away but the reporters were still chasing her.

Anna re-entered the castle, the reporters were unable to follow her as they were barred from entering. Anna stepped closer to the piano she shot last night. Everything they've been through has to do, though, it was difficult to put into words but he was very sure all the trickery they were going through was done by Mariana so that they would not disturb the box to take its toll and so that they could not find the box that's.

All of that is proven by the departure of the man who stole the box when he saved Barrow. By the time the castle's inhabitants had not deceived them again, by then the task of the box had been completed and the box had been taken out. It was very upset, but he couldn't do anything.

Anna stepped towards the room where the victims were still being evacuated. He wanted to find Barrow he was there but again Barrow wasn't there. Where the hell's he going? He wants to take Barrow home and find his stolen car.

"Did you see Barrow?" Anna asked the officer who was looking for evidence but the officer just shook his head.

"Any," murmured Anna. He came back out of the room and stepped out of the castle.

Anna looked around, maybe Barrow was helping the officer and sure enough, Barrow was seen but he was not helping the officer because at that time he was escaping from the pursuit of journalists who wanted to ask him.

"Barrow!" Anna screamed as she ran to her partner.

"Where have you been? I'm looking everywhere you just disappeared!" said Anna upset.

"Sorry, I'm lazy to face those reporters so I'm hiding!" said Barrow.

"All right, let's go find your car. Maybe we can get a clue and find the whereabouts of the box," Anna steps towards a car she can use.

"I don't think it's necessary, Anna" Barrow said, following his steps.

"Why? Isn't that your great-grandfather's antique car?" tanyakanya.

"Yeah, it's my great-grandfather's car, but if we find it, we won't find anything else. The man who carried the box whoever he was could not have left a trace. It could have been in the middle of the forest and could have been thrown to the bottom of the cliff. I don't want to but we need a break, Anna. We haven't rested at all so we'd better go home first, tomorrow we can find that car together."

"Well, it turns out your perverted brain can be used to think," Anna stepped back to the car, they did need a break.

"Hey, what do you mean talk like that?" Barrow started chasing.

"Back, Barrow. You got a little smart after being terrorized by ghosts in the two places we went!"

"Huh, I don't want to be terrorized anymore!" said Barrow.

They get into the car, leaving the location where they experience many unpleasant events. They were even nearly killed by a demonic trickery that resembled the person they knew. Terrible old castle, may no one come to that castle again.

"Are you sure you don't want to find your car? We can follow where the wheels of the tires go before the rain erases their tracks" Anna said.

"Here we are, our circumstances are more important than the car."

"All right," Anna drove Barrow home first. Again their efforts were in vain. This time he was certain, he would not be able to find the whereabouts of the box until the full night came. The only path she has to take is to protect Lucia whom they suspect is a pure soul Mariana desperately needs for her resurrection.

"About we failed to get it, Barrow," Anna said.

"And again you blame yourself" said Barrow.

"I feel guilty for that innocent victim, Barrow. Don't you see the sobs of their family?"

"Alright, Anna. I told you everything is out of our control, I hope you're more careful after this."

"Of course, you have to be careful too, Barrow."

"I'm more worried about you!" said Barrow.

Anna smiled, not only should she be careful but the two of them. Frankly, the feeling was bad because of the missing box. He felt that something was going to happen very badly but he did not know what.

They've arrived at Barrow's house, Anna's coming home after this. He wanted to rest even though he really wanted to find the whereabouts of Barrow's car because it could have been taken somewhere but what Barrow said was very true if they were tired.

"Be careful, call me when you arrive" Barrow said before stepping down from the mobi.

"Surely," Anna said with a smile.

Barrow got out of the car, Anna waved at him before he left. It was a tiring night but they failed and even they could not save the victim. It felt really upset, all because of Mariana. If he had gotten the box, he would have thrown it into the volcano so that no one could get it as well as Mariana.
