Herman pursed his lips.
He was a doctor. He was supposed to be compassionate.
But he wasn’t.
Being a doctor was just his job. He just happened to do it perfectly.
So, after the accident, he didn’t rush to help immediately.
But most of the people who were still in the pool at the time of the accident were scalded to death.
Blood and flesh were boiling in the water. Not many people managed to climb up.
Even if a few managed to climb up, they would probably be disabled for life.
“I’m fine!”
Mary took a deep breath. She pushed Monroe’s hand away and continued to walk forward.
Mary hardened her heart. Whether it was a natural or man-made disaster, it was more important that they did not find Hugh.
Finally, they found Hugh in the square.
There were five men in black surrounding Hugh. They were all sent by Monroe to look for them. Obviously, they were also the ones who found Hugh and brought him back.
“Boss, there’s no signal. We couldn’t contact you!”
The leader of the men in black hurriedly reported when he saw Monroe.
Herman stepped forward and punched Hugh in the chest. “What’s wrong with you? You were so focused on looking at women that you almost got lost!”
Hugh clutched his chest and looked at his brother and Mary with a pale face. “I didn’t get lost! And I didn’t die. I’m still lucky, okay!”
The group of people hurried back. Monroe protected Mary from being pushed around the entire time. The seven men in black formed a small circle, and soon, everyone stood out from the most crowded crowd.
They quickly went up the mountain.
On the way, Hugh didn’t know if he was nervous or not, but he kept talking.
“At that time, I was soaking in the pool. There was an extremely beautiful woman who wanted to drink orange juice, so I went ashore. “At that moment... Sigh, the beautiful woman was so scalded that she screamed. She wanted to come up, but she couldn’t. I went to pull her up, but I couldn’t reach her. When I found something to reach her, her face was already... wrinkled from the heat. It was too tragic!”
“The rest of them were facing down. I saw that their scalps had fallen off. The pool was full of hair!”
“The meat is cooked. I can smell it, but the thought of it being human flesh makes me want to vomit...”
Mary’s expression had long changed. “Stop talking!”
Monroe gave Herman a look, and Herman covered Hugh’s mouth.
The group finally returned to the villa in peace.
The two small pools in the villa had been surrounded, but the water was still bubbling.
A man in black came forward to report, “Boss, the water temperature has been measured. It has reached the highest point, 374.3 degrees Celsius.”
This was the foot of the volcano.
Anything could happen suddenly.
The uneasiness in Mary’s heart grew stronger and stronger.
“I think we should leave this place immediately.”
Mary looked at the three Monroe brothers and said this with a serious and solemn expression.
Hugh was obviously in a bad mood. His mind was filled with images of the beautiful women in the pool.
Herman didn’t have any objections.
Monroe asked Mary, “What’s wrong? Aren’t we waiting for the results of the investigation?”
Mary looked at the three of them in the eyes and said word by word, “Maybe, we won’t be able to wait for the results of the investigation. Maybe... I’m overthinking it. But I just feel that... it’s going to be very dangerous.”
She didn’t want to say that the volcano might erupt early.
Maybe, she was thinking too much.
But it was always right to be careful.
Hugh and Mary rarely agreed. “Let’s go! I don’t want to stay any longer!”
The more he thought about it, the more scared he became.
Monroe looked at Mary for a while and finally gave the order. “Everyone, let’s go now!”
