Inside the surveillance room, the three of them could see that Sonia and Charles entered the hot springs about an hour and a half ago but since then, the former never came out.

From this, it was obvious that she should still be in the hot springs.

“I’ll go check the hot springs!” With that, Charles immediately rushed out of the door.

Tina lifted her head and looked at Toby next to her before asking in a soft tone, “Toby, should we follow?”

 

“We should!” he answered with furrowed brows. “Charles suspects that her disappearance has something to do with you, so we must follow him to help clear your name. Let’s go.”

She smiled faintly and replied, “Alright. We’ll do as you say.”

When they got to the entrance of the hot springs, they could hear Charles negotiating with the security guard.

“Sir, I’ve told you that the hot springs’ operating hours have passed. There isn’t anyone inside.” The guard blocked Charles’ path to prevent him from getting in.

As Charles was about to say something while scratching his head, a loud scream could be heard coming from inside the hot springs, drawing everyone’s attention to the source.

Then, everyone saw a cleaning lady running out of the hot springs in fear while mumbling something to herself.
