Elijah and Michelle looked at each other before quickly following suit out of curiosity.
The firefighters had covered the stretcher they carried out with a piece of cloth. Although everyone knew there was a person under it, no one knew who it was.
However, Maria recognized the corner of the clothing that peaked out under the cloth. "Ree…" She pounced onto the stretcher.
Fabian did not hold her back as she threw herself onto the stretcher, and it fell to the ground with a bang. She had also unintentionally pulled the cloth with her.
"Ah!" Her scream filled the air when she saw the face that belonged to the body.
Michelle, who was right behind her, saw the body and gasped in fright. Elijah quickly reacted as he covered her eyes with his hand. "Don't look!"
Even he, a burly man, felt his heart skip a beat, and the hairs all over his body stood on end when he saw the corpse. The face was burnt beyond recognition, almost into a lump of soil. A glance at it would make anyone scream.
Although Michelle was in his arms with her eyes covered, she still trembled in fear.
On the other hand, Maria passed out after letting out a scream.
Fabian quickly helped her up from the stretcher and did not dare to take another glance. Fortunately, the firefighters had covered the body again, and one said, "We found a corpse. It's a female whose identity is still unknown."
