Seeing the haggard look on the red-haired girl's face, Roger felt a little bit sorry. He was caught up in the great excitement of moving the hunter's hut last night, and he even ignored that someone in the woods was always looking for him.

"Feel sorry……"

Roger wanted to say something more, but Amanda didn't give him any chance to speak. She hugged Roger tightly, which was surprisingly powerful.

At this time, when they heard the voices of the two, several police officers around them also took the initiative to lean over. Roger saw the burly and majestic Greg, and Andrine who looked relieved.

"Where did you go? Later, a few wild beasts sprang out of the woods. I lost my way in a panic, and ended up walking farther and farther..."

It was fine if he didn't say anything, but after hearing Roger's words, Amanda burst into tears.

The abnormal behavior of the red-haired girl made Roger a little embarrassed for a while, and he wanted to comfort her but didn't know what to say.

"Roger..."

Amanda choked up.

"Simpson is dead!"

"Betty and I can only watch him die beside us, but we can't do anything."

"What?"

Roger was taken aback.

He was attacked at the time, and time was short, so he didn't have time to take a closer look, but according to common sense, Simpson's injuries were not fatal, as long as they returned to the edge of the forest...

"What happened?"

Roger asked in a low voice.

"It's Bob!"

Amanda wiped away tears.

"Betty and I supported Simpson and walked behind. He was seriously injured and we were dragging it. We didn't dare to make too much noise in the dark, but when we walked out of the woods and returned to the side of the road..."

"Bob's car is gone!"

"It was only later that we found out that he and Lucy had rushed to the edge of the woods ahead of time. These two guys didn't care about our lives, and drove away in the car!"

Amanda clenched her fists tightly, her eyes filled with angry flames.

At this time, Andrine came to her, and she took a step forward to pull Amanda away, and then handed Roger a thin blanket, "How is it, have you been injured?"

Amanda also noticed this problem at this time, and hurriedly asked.

"I was lucky, but I just fell a few times in the mountains."

Greg gives a thumbs up.

"Look like a man, I really want to admire you! It took a lot of courage to choose to stay in that situation."

"Okay, don't say any more, send them back quickly, Roger must be exhausted after he didn't rest all night."

Andrine beckoned and found Roger. Everyone's task was temporarily completed, but when they thought of the dead Simpson, everyone couldn't help but cast a haze in their hearts.

"Didn't it mean that there are no wild animals outside the woods?"

Roger got into Andrine's car.

"The incident is still under investigation."

Andrine obviously didn't want to talk more, "Take a good rest and leave the rest to us."

"And you!"

Andrine suppressed her anger, and glanced at Amanda in the rearview mirror.

"From today onwards you are grounded!"

Amanda didn't say anything. She was the one who was hit the hardest when this happened. Seeing her daughter's haggard face, Andrine's heart softened for a moment.

"Don't think too much about it, you're not to blame for what happened to Simpson."

"You and Betty are good girls, and Mom is proud of you."

Amanda still didn't say a word, just covered her face with her hands and buried her head deeply.

Roger could imagine the scene at that time.

In the dark bushes, two weak girls were pulling Simpson, the looming howling of wolves in the distance and Simpson's pained groans irritated their eardrums all the time.

When they rushed to the starting point full of hope, what they saw was the emptiness after the hope was shattered.

Simpson's injuries were getting worse and his breathing was getting weaker and weaker, but there was nothing they could do but watch him die.

Just thinking about this kind of despair makes one's scalp tingle.

Andrine gave Roger a look, and Roger nodded, understanding what Andrine meant, "Give her some time first."

"I'm sorry, Roger."

"I just wanted you... But I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen. If something happens to you, I'm afraid I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life."

Andrine sighed.

On the way back, the three of them were thoughtful, and the atmosphere in the carriage was so depressing that water could almost drip out.

Andrine sent Amanda and Roger back home, and hurried to the police station. There are still many things to follow.

After entering the room, Amanda locked herself in the room alone, and Roger also felt a little tired. He went back to the room that Andrine had prepared for him before, tidied up briefly, and fell asleep.

At the same time, the news of Simpson's death in the small town instantly ignited public opinion as if it had wings.

For the next two days, Roger didn't go out, and he didn't even see Amanda again. During this period, a police officer came to take notes for him and asked about what happened that day.

Roger had nothing to hide. In addition, the news about several people gathering in the wild to hold a mysterious ceremony also spread like wildfire.

The police even went out of their way to ask him why he rushed in to disrupt the ceremony of the five at the last minute.

To which Roger just prevaricates that it was a prank.

In fact, his existence has been greatly weakened in the whole incident. As a strange face, people in the town are not familiar with him, and ordinary people do not know the details of the incident.

But the others were different.

Except for Betty, the other four were all native Bay Town residents, and now one of them died, and most importantly, public opinion's attention was diverted to another matter.

That's whether Bob and Lucy escaped or not.

According to Bob and Lucy, they did run out of the woods early because of panic, but they didn't drive away directly, but waited for a long time.

During this process, they endured great panic, and they drove back to the town until they hadn't seen the other people for a long time.

Afterwards, it was indeed the two of them who called the police.

From this point of view, the actions of the two seem to be understandable, after all, even adults can't keep calm in that situation.

But Amanda couldn't accept this statement.

She and Betty were dragging Simpson, the speed was indeed not fast, but if Bob waited in place, there was absolutely no way they would miss them.

At this point, Lucy even suggested that Amanda and Betty misremembered the starting point and failed to get to the car in time, which led to Simpson's death.

She and Bob had called Amanda before they set off, but the call hadn't been dialed because of the signal.

The two sides insisted on their own opinions, and the dispute was endless. Judging from the existing evidence, both sides seemed to have a reason, and it was difficult to conclude for a while.

On the third day after the incident, Andrine suddenly found Roger, and she was accompanied by a strange woman.
