“I’ve already considered every possible method, Mr. Tristan, but we still can’t find him,” said Bertram. “I’m going out in a while. Do you want to come with me, Tristan?” Sophie asked.
“Yes.”
He was going to follow her wherever she went. Even though she was a capable person, they were in Fandar, a place of chaos.
If even someone like Felix could disappear there, there was no way Tristan could ever let Sophie roam the place on her own.
“Don’t worry. We’ll find him,” Sophie comforted the man. He must be feeling awful. It’s his good friend, after all.
“I know.”
“Where are you going, Ms. Tanner? I’ll drive you there,” offered Bertram. Things were too messed up at the place. Moreover, Bertram was more familiar with the area since he had been living there for some time.
“It’s okay. I need you to stay here to take care of Ysabelle for me. Don’t let her run around wherever she wants,” Sophie instructed. At that moment. Ysabelle was like a delicate little bunny. Danger would be upon her if she went out.
“All right. Don’t worry, Ms. Tanner. I’ll take good care of her,” promised Bertram, nodding firmly.
Soon, Sophie found a picture of Felix on her phone. She made a few copies of it and went out with Tristan.
“Where are we going?” asked Tristan.
He had no clue where Sophie wanted to go.
“To find someone. Relax. I love you, so I won’t sell you off, Sophie joked to lighten the moo
“Okay.”
Tristan knew why she was doing what she was doing, but he could not dismiss the heavy feeling heart. In fact, he would not be able to relax as long as Felix was not found.
When the car arrived at a remote area, Sophie made a call and waited in the car. In the meantime, she rolled down the car windows and watched the children outside. The fear of war was palpable in their ey
No ordinary citizen in the world liked wars because the devastation they wrought was too great.
More importantly, they were still children, and many had already died in such a high-tech war before they could even experience what it was like to grow up.
Tristan, too, stared at the children outside.
“Kids born in this area are really pitiful.” Not a single kid dared to approach the car.
“Mm… Maybe we can help them.” Only when the horrible humans stopped wreaking havoc there would the children live to see the future.
However, that could only be done after Felix was found.
“I’ll be with you no matter what you want to do. Just don’t abandon me.”
Indeed, he was willing to do anything for her.
Right then, an old man in tattered clothes approached their car.
When Sophie caught sight of the elderly man, she stepped out of the car and walked over to him.
“Ms. Tanner, is there something you need?” The elderly man eyed her with immense respect.
“It’s like this. I want you to help me find this man. Once you have news about him, I’ll need you to send someone to report to us at this address.”
While saying that, Sophie handed the photograph to the elderly man.
Accepting the photograph, Arthur Camidge said, “All right, Ms. Tanner. Don’t worry. We’ll do our best to fulfill your request.”
The two conversed using the local language, which surprised Tristan.
He had no idea Sophie was fluent in that language. Did she come to Fandar in the past?
“Thank you in advance,” said Sophie. That was one of the ways to find someone in a poor and backward place.
Arthur knew everyone from all over Fandar. He was like the leader of a gang from the past.
Only when the elderly man walked away with the photograph did Sophie return to the car.
“What is it? Do you have questions?” she asked Tristan upon seeing his confused face.
“How are you able to speak the language here? Did you come here before?” he queried. Wasn’t she always in Jipsdale and Horington?
