In the same instant Frank heard the wooden box being opened, he leapt out of the closet straight toward 'Horey Lindt', catching her and pinning her on the floor.

"Don't move!" he snapped.

"Ahh!" The woman shrieked underneath Frank, jolting him to his senses.

Feeling a foreboding sensation in the pit of his stomach, he turned to the woman, his eyes widening as he found himself staring at an unfamiliar face.

It was not Horey!

"What..."

Even as Frank's face fell, the woman beneath him struggled, punching his chest.

"Let me go, you moron! Let me go!" she shrieked.

"Damn it!"

Frank cursed as he heard a rush of footsteps outside and poked the woman in the collarbone, knocking her out.

Then, he scooped her up in one hand and hid in the next room before pressing his ear against the wall to eavesdrop on Room 10.

"What happened?!"

"The closet broke? And what's that on the table?"

Frank breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the staff members' murmurs of confusion-fortunately, they did not see him.

Then, putting a hand over the woman's mouth, he poked her between the brows, reviving her.

As she slowly stirred, she started struggling and calling for help again.

"Stay quiet and don't move, or I'll kill you!" Frank snapped, his eyes flashing murderously

As her body seemed to turn limp and shudder, Frank kept his cool glare on her as he continued, "I will now let you talk. But if you call for help, you're dead. Understand?"

"Mmph."

The woman nodded despite her terror, and Frank lifted her hand from her mouth, asking softly, " have questions. I'll let you go if you answer them, or I will kill you where you stand." to

The woman nodded again, her eyes pleading for mercy since she could not call for help.

"Good—at least you understand your situation." Frank nodded in turn. "First of all, who sent you here to get that box?"

"It was a woman... she wore black

robes and gave me a fifty grand check, telling me to bring it to her,"

the woman spoke gingerly, endlessly afraid of incurring Frank's wrath. to

"Good. Second question..."

Frank paused, narrowing his eyes. "Was that woman nearby earlier?" "Yeah." The woman nodded gingerly. "She's at the back door."

Then, seemingly worried that it was not enough, she added gingerly, "She stayed in touch through a video call and told me to aim the camera at the contents of the box. She said she wanted a look." to

"What?"

Frank panicked right then. "And did she see it?"Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

The woman thought about it and nodded. "Yeah."

"Shit!"

Frank cursed the game was up, as Horey had seen the fake Bloodcrane Spiritbloom in the box!
