Romeo hoisted Arabella onto his back once again. "Lookslike the girl they're talking about was Clark's girlfriend, Carol."
Arabella didn't resist. She wrapped her arms around his neck and murmured, "I didn't realize Carol held such a high position in the organization before."
Being unanimously respected by the elders, she must be pretty talented.
Previously, Clark thought Carol was a sweet, fragile girl.
It seemed that Carol always presented herself as a gentle girl in front of Clark and their parents, much like herself.
"Think about it, she's been missing for a year, and no one in the organization can find her. This shows that she indeed has some skills," Romeo analyzed.
He also wondered what kind of existence this organization was, as he had never heard of it before.
"She managed to hide for over 300 days. That's impressive," Arabella looked at Romeo's profile and said softly, "It seems our guess was right. Carol probably wanted to leave the organization for Clark and ended up hurting the elders, hence the death sentence."
"Dedicated to love and righteousness," Romeo commented, "Respectable."
"I wonder if she's hiding around here," Arabella speculated, "The most dangerous place may be the safest, perhaps?"
"Unlikely."
Even if it were safe, it wouldn't be possible to hide under everyone's noses for more than 300 days without being discovered.
"I think there might be something here that's worth our time," Romeo speculated, "Perhaps some kind of leverage against the organization."
If the elders were ruthless and didn't hold back, then Carol might also plan to go down fighting.
Didn't those two men mention earlier that what the elders cared about was that thing.
That thing might be incriminating evidence.
