Chapter 31: I’m Here...
In the middle of the night, Cail's phone suddenly rang.
Cail was still awake; he was sitting in his bed reading a book. The moment his phone rang, he was quick to respond to it.
It was Jael.
"I seem to have flinched when I heard my phone ringing. It seemed like I developed a conditional reflex," Because every time his phone rang, it's a new trouble.
"Hello? Jael, what's up?" Cail rubbed his eyes.
It was silent on the other side.
'Don't tell me...' Cail was alert the moment he remembered the cult. It shouldn't be this fast! Based on the news articles that he gathered, it should at least take a week for them to go to Jael's house if they were following the same pattern.
Cail didn't speak, he just listened to the silence. He could hear a faint heavy breathing on the other side.
"Cail... Please help me," Jael said, his voice quivering, filled with terror.
"What happened? Are those cults there?" Cail asked, but he already had his guess.
Jael didn't answer for a second, before he spoke in a very hushed tone, "Yes. Th-they suddenly just appeared here. I woke up to them chanting something strange on my front door. They matched the description, so they should be it."
