Chapter 48

Book:Special Slaves Published:2024-5-1

“It’s indeed very interesting to direct a stage play, but it’s also not very appropriate to cast one in such a way. Let them go back!”said Derek.
Derek finishes talking and leaves with Felton.
“I knew you’d only cause trouble for this town!” said Chloe.
Chloe then leaves and so does everyone else. Just then, Lily runs over to you.
“Hey! I noticed something strange about Mitchell!”said Lily.
“What?!”said you.
Lily and you arrive at the launderette and discover that Mitchell is not here.
“What on earth has Mitchell done that you think is strange?”said you.
“He didn’t sleep the whole day today and seemed to be waiting for something. When I talked to him, he didn’t really feel like answering.”said Lily.
“Then where did he go?”said you.
“I don’t know either. He was here when I went to find you.”said Lily.
At this moment, Mitchell comes back and looks surprised to see you here.
“Why are you here again?”said Mitchell.
“Where did you go?”said you.
“None of your business.”said Mitchell.
“You look kind of out of sorts. Is there anything wrong?”said Lily.
“I’m fine. You just think too much.”said Mitchell.
Mitchell then goes back to his chair and is going to sleep.
“I’m here now. Don’t even think about sleeping!”said you.
You go over and drag Mitchell up. He is surprised to find that you are so strong.
“Lily, you’re my slave. Now I order you to chase Jessica out!”said Mitchell.
“I won’t help you with this. You don’t even tell me the truth.”said Lily.
“What I’ve told you is the truth. It’s just that you won’t believe me!”said Mitchell.
You know that Mitchell won’t tell you this way, so you decide to change your strategy.
“Mitchell, how dare you call the king an asshole!”said you.
“When did I say that?”said Mitchell.
“You’re still saying it! You’re too much. You actually think this place is bad and want to leave! I’ll tell the king!”said you.
“I’ve never seen such a barefaced slander. Go ahead. Let’s see if he’ll believe you!”said Mitchell.
“Come on! I’ll go with you and prove it for you!”said Lily.
“You’re actually staying on her side!”said Mitchell.
“I advise you to tell me what’s going on. Otherwise I have ten thousand of ways of tricking you! Do you want to live a life where you have to be on guard against me all the time?”said you.
Mitchell looks at you and shakes his head helplessly.
“Right, I’ll tell you but don’t tell this to anyone else!”said Mitchell.
“Right, I agree.”said you.
“In fact, I also don’t know the mysterious man’s true identity…”said Mitchell.
“You’re still not telling the truth now!”said you.
“Come on, I’m not lying to you. I’m telling the truth. That first night you arrived here, he suddenly appeared at my place.”said Mitchell.
“”What did he do?”said you.
“He offered me a big sum of money and asked me to do some small things for him. He also asked me about something to do with this place.”said Mitchell.
“Did you see what he looks like?”said you.
“Nope, he’s always in that outfit and never changes.”said Mitchell.
“So did you just go to meet him?”said you.
“That’s right. He asked me what you wanted to do by gathering all the men in the town.”said Mitchell.
“What did you say?”said you.
“I said I didn’t know of course! How do I know what’s in your crazy mind!”said Mitchell.
“Then where did you meet?”said you.
“Just near the woods.”said Mitchell.
“It seems that he indeed lives in the woods!”said Lily.
“I’ll go and look for him. Maybe he’s really around there!”said you.
You and Lily are walking in the woods and going deeper inside. Lily feels kind of scared.
“Do you think we’ll bump into a wolf again?”said Lily.
“There can’t be that many wolves. Anyway we just need to be careful and we’ll be fine.”said you.
Your mind is occupied by the mysterious man and you don’t pay much attention to Lily. After walking for a while you find Lily to be very quiet.
“Why have you stopped talking?”said you.
You turn around and find that Lily is missing.
Where is Lily? She seriously can get lost like this!
You shake your head helplessly and have to go back to look for her. While you are walking you hear some noise nearby. You assume it is made by Lily, so you walk over. However, you find it to be Chloe and a hunter.
Could it be that Chloe and the hunter have found you and chased after you? No! What are they chasing after you for?
You don’t know what Chloe and the hunter are up to, so you walk after them.
“Do you think our plan will succeed?”said the hunter.
“I don’t know. We have to try our luck. If only Jessica did not exist. She’s our first obstacle.” said Chloe.
“Then shall we…?”said the hunter.
At this moment you spot a house in front of you which looks like a secret base.
What on earth is Chloe planning? Is this the danger that the mysterious man referred to?
“Wait! I think I hear something!” said Chloe.
Chloe suddenly starts looking around. You feel that you’ve exposed yourself, so you slip away and mark your trail in the woods.
You know that no matter what Chloe wants to do, she already regards you as her enemy. As long as Chloe continues what she’s doing, you will be in danger. Therefore, you go to find Derek and think of telling him everything. You agree to meet each other in the hall. Felton also comes with Derek.
“Miss Jessica, how’s your play going? Is there anything I can help with?”said Derek.
“The reason I came to find you is that there’s something very important I need to tell you.”said you.
“What’s happened?”said Derek.
“It’s Chloe. She’s secretly plotting something.”said you.
“About what?”said Derek.
“I’m not sure but I saw that she has a secret base in the woods. She must be planning to do something harmful to the town.”said you.
“Why did you go to the woods again?” said Felton.
You can’t tell them about the mysterious man and Mitchell. You need to find an excuse to cover it up.
“I went to the woods to find some inspiration for my stories.”said you.
Felton:You are writing your own script?” said Felton.
“That’s not important! What matters is that Chloe has an evil plan!”said you.
“Could it be that you’re mistaken? I don’t believe Chloe would do harm to this town. Back when we built up the town, both Chloe and Felton made a great contribution.”said Derek.
“I also don’t think Chloe is that kind of a person. She loves it here.” said Felton.
“You call her over and I’ll confront her in person!”said you.
Derek and Felton look at each other and then order someone to find Chloe. After a long while Chloe hurries over.
“Your Majesty, what is so urgent that you asked me to come?” said Chloe.
“There’s something we need to figure out with you.”said Derek.
Derek hesitates.
“Feel free to tell me anything. You don’t have to feel embarrassed.” said Chloe.
