The person on the other end remamed silent, clearly wanting to see what kind of
explanation she could come up
“I was locked in a room with a friend, and the scent inside could affect one’s temperature.
I just wanted to call you and calm down.” Cynthia changed her wording, but she knew
Captain would understand.
Hearing her words, the man on the other end did not know whether to be angry or
amused.
Calling him to calm herself down?
Only she could come up with something like that.
“Are you calm now?TM
“Yes, I am.”
“Are the surroundings safe?”
“Yes.”
With these answers, the person on the other end of the phone felt slightly reassured. Now

matters we should talk about.”
“What is it?!!
“About how you used me to calm down.”
Captain emphasized the words ‘calm down’.
Cynthia’s worries resurfaced. “What about?”
“We can talk about it when we meet in person.” Captain could not bring himself to say
He wanted to tell Cynthia to be responsible for her choice of words.

With just a simple sentence, Cynthia understood everything and realized that Captain
probably knew about her situation.
“I know.”
“Do you still need to calm down?”
Cynthia fell helpless hearing Captain’s question. Nonetheless, she was completely and

As the call ended, Cynthia’s tense heart relaxed.
Captain looked at the call log on his phone, and his well-defined fingers rubbed his brows.

After hanging up, Cynthia called Moses and told him she and Joshua were locked in a
room. She explained Joshua’s current condition and asked Moses to buy something and

Moses followed her instructions.
Nearly twenty minutes later, someone knocked on the door of their room.
Cynthia immediately tapped on the door in response. Moses saw something on the door
