CHAPTER 56: THAT WAS CLOSE

Creak.

The door of the camper van opened and the three girls dressed in black all entered sighing with relief.

“Darn! This was simply so ….. ahhh, I hope that we won’t come across such scum in the future!” Lizzy disgustedly spoke, recalling the situation she saw in that basement.

Elowyn chuckled as she walked towards the bathroom and answered, “such scum will never disappear. What we can do is continue to strive to eliminate them. If possible, find the real masterminds and rid of them.”

Both girls nodded to that and watched as Elowyn stripped herself clean before entering the bathroom.

“I think that we should start looking into the law enforcement as well. If we can’t afford to reveal ourselves, then at least getting rid of these filthy people, who use the law for their own wishes, would suffice.

At least, we will be able to discreetly send evidence to them and let them do the job on our behalf as well. After all, they are the ones who should be doing this,” Bryssa added, stripping the clothes with the scent of blood on it, and Lizzy was doing the same.

The sound of the water splashing inside the bathroom filled the van as Lizzy added her own opinions, using the camper sink to give herself a quick wipe, while Bryssa gathered the black clothes and poured that magical powder before the clothes vanished.

“Bryssa, you can work on that. You have wider connections than us. If I happen to have another vision and we can’t go out, then tipping the law enforcement will be good.”

“How about we work alongside tonight’s group? They are pretty good?” Lizzy suggested, thinking about how dedicated those men were.

Elowyn finishing her quick wipe nodded and readily supported Lizzy.

“I think that as long as they can take on the job, we can work with them long term. Money is not a problem. I will gather the funds. They just need to help.”

Talking about those men, one of their colleagues’ little sister was abducted and they have been searching for her for a while. They have been using their own channel to track the gang. And that’s how Bryssa found them.

When Elowyn have these visions, she will tell Bryssa, who in return will do everything in her power to locate the place and scout for any dangers that they may face.

During the process, she met with the group. And already having an idea of where the women and children were, the two sides collaborated and that’s how tonight’s mission went.

“I will talk to them and see how they react,” Bryssa didn’t readily agreed to that. After all, it wasn’t her opinion but for others.

The other girls didn’t push the matter any further.

The three girls were very swift. Five minutes after entering the van, they have gotten rid of the clothes they wore during their heroine act, wiped their bodies and were now wearing their pajamas and getting ready to sleep.

Tap. Tap.

However, as they were preparing for that, while discussing the matter further regarding using fixed external help, someone started knocking at the door, making the three of them to freeze in place.

‘Who can it be?’ Elowyn mouthed as she looked at the three.

Bryssa’s eyes narrowed as she looked at the time, and upon seeing how it was already after midnight, her brows furrowed deeply, wondering who couldn’t sleep and didn’t allow others to rest.

‘Should we open the door?’ Lizzy mouthed, looking at Elowyn for answers.

At getting that question, Elowyn closed her eyes as she asked her ancestor, ‘do you know who is outside?’

They just arrived and if anyone had followed them, that would be deadly. There were at a campsite, and it would be a pity if they were forced to shed blood and make innocent people suffer.

[Its two ladies you had dinner with. It’s just them alone,] came the response and her eyes snapped open.

“I will go outside and check who it is. You stay put,” Elowyn responded, ushering orders at the two.

At hearing that, the two didn’t object and settled on the bed while Elowyn walked towards the door.

Meanwhile, outside the camper van, Sara and Melinda both stood there having a little chat after knocking.

“Do you think that they have slept?” Melinda asked, her eyes glancing over the tent that didn’t seem to have anyone in it.

Sara’s eyes were hazy as she looked at the camper van that also didn’t seem to have anyone in it but still mildly responded, “perhaps they are. After all, it’s already this late. Where could they go? This is their mode of transport.”

Melinda nodded, finding that answer making sense.

“Ah …. I guess I walked over here for nothing,” she regretfully said, and that caught Sara’s interest.

“Do you want something urgent from them?”

Melinda sheepishly scratched her nose upon hearing that question but still answered, “This …. Um, I just found out that I …. It_” however, before she could finish, the door to the camper opened cutting the conversation midway.

Both women snapped and looked towards the door, where Elowyn had just popped her head, revealing half of her body which didn’t hide the short pajamas she was wearing.

From where she stood, her right leg was in the open, revealing that red lotus tattoo, quite glaring and fiery not to notice.

“Yawn …. Ladies, you are still awake?” while faking a yawn, Elowyn drowsily asked the two, her eyes looking slightly red, as if she had just woken up.

When the two saw the drowsy Elowyn, they were filled with mixed emotions, but since they were already there, they could only bite their tongues and respond.

“I am sorry for coming over this late,” Sara started, looking slightly guilty, as her eyes quickly scanned Elowyn for any inconsistencies, “I was about to sleep, but then I recalled that I forgot to ask you about whether you are still up for that morning event. Do you guys still want to watch the sunrise together?”

When Elowyn heard that, she suddenly face-palmed, recalling the conversation.

She smiled sheepishly at Sara and responded with a slightly giggle, “Sis, sorry about that. I guess we had so much fun chatting that I forgot to answer you. Of course, we would like to go. How can we miss that?” and agreeing to the invitation.

Sara sighed with relief and cheerfully responded, her expression softening, “That’s good. now I can sleep. And sorry for waking you up. I have this OCD thing. Unless I confirm something, I tend to overreact,” and explained herself.
