A few hours just passed.
The sky turned dark, stars began to appear, a sign that the night had come. Adam's figure was still staring towards the river with an indifferent expression.
"Can I go out now, Mr Owl?"
James' voice sounded from the dark river. The man literally soaked in the cold river water for hours. Makes his body really cold, wrinkled, and appear limp.
Not just in one place. Every few hours, less than an hour ... James moved from one location to another. Even the police officers on duty searching in the forest not far from the river stared at him with strange expressions.
Like watching a circus show or something.
"You may return" said Adam in a calm tone.
Hearing Adam's words, James immediately felt pleased. His body that was shivering with coldness instantly felt more powerful. He immediately swam to the riverbank, and ...
Yep. Nothing happened at all.
Looking towards James, Adam frowned. Feels a little weird.
Are there really no mutated beings or evil spirits here? Or, compared to chicken ... James really doesn't look good?
At the moment Adam thought that, James suddenly sneezed. The man who covered his body with a thick towel turned to the left and right, looking somewhat dazed.
"Do you think I'm going to have a fever, Mr Owl? How about stopping for today and continuing tomorrow?"
Hearing James' suggestion, Carole and Jasmine also stared at Adam. The two women were shocked to hear James' voice again.
"Carole or Jasmine can also replace me to soak in the river. Yes ... I don't think that's a bad idea." James stroked his chin.
"Making them both wear underwear and show off? Sorry, the Department of Mysteries doesn't provide that kind of service."
"..."
James who stroked his chin was stunned, then looked slightly disappointed. Meanwhile, Carole and Jasmine looked relieved. The two of them then glared at James with a cold expression.
If gazes could kill, perhaps James was already torn to shreds and died from the gazes of the two women.
At that very moment, a police officer approached Adam. After arriving beside the young man, he stood up and saluted.
"Report, Sir! One of the teams has found a clue about the victim!"
"Oh?" Adam looked rather surprised. He nodded as he replied, "Good work. Take us there. If it really is a reliable clue, I will report your good work to the people above."
Hearing that, the police officer looked happy. He once again saluted and said in a stern tone.
"It's our job, sir!"
"Then take us there."
"Ready, Sir!"
"Have you forgotten me? I haven't even changed clothes! Oye! Can you listen to me!"
Sensing the cold night wind pounding his body, James shivered. He feels cold. Not just physically, but also the heart. Making the man curse directly in the heart.
Holy bullshit! They really left me!
***
Arriving at the scene, the police officers saluted Adam. Afterwards, one representative from the police gave the young man a tear of cloth.
After observing for a while, Adam looked quite surprised.
"Is this really a tear in the fabric of one of the victims?"
"Yes, Sir!"
"Then show me the place where you found this thing!"
"Good, Sir!"
Some time later, they finally arrived at a place with some gigantic trees and stones that were so big. It is a mysterious but also beautiful combination of places.
According to officers, it was there that they found the suspicious piece of cloth.
Adam then watched the surrounding area and nodded.
"For the team that found the clue pieces at once this place ..the reward points doubled!"
Hearing Adam's voice, the members of the other group looked envious, resentful, and also amazed. They feel less fortunate and less hard-working.
"What are you trying to do now, Mr Owl?"
Seeing Adam walking around among the rocks within the area of some of the big trees, James asked in surprise.
"Meet."
Hearing Adam's words, the others immediately felt confused and strange. That was because ... other than a big rock or something like that, everything seemed normal. It's even too horrible.
Meanwhile, Adam crouched down while checking the ground. Looking at the fertile ground and looking too soft and out of place, the young man muttered softly.
"It's a good thing they never found the real location."
Rising while cleaning his clothes, he then made horses and kicked a large stone over two meters high. Although it did not explode, the stone rolled to the side. Reveal a hole one meter in diameter under the stone.
At that moment also ... fishy and foul aroma wafted in the air suddenly.
