Bruce had been sleeping for nearly ten hours when he woke up groggily. Aria had been by his side, and when she saw him wake up, she immediately leaned in to check on him, softly saying, "Bruce, you're awake?"
Bruce lifted his eyelids heavily and first saw Aria's worried face.
"Ugh..." Bruce mumbled as if in a dream, thinking he might be dreaming. "Aria, is that you..."
Aria smiled as she heard him and replied, "Yes, it's me!"
Bruce asked, "How did you end up here?"
"I've been around here all along. I learned you came to South Elmerton a few days ago, so I specifically waited for you in this small town."
After all, this was the only way to the northern sea.
After all, this was the only way to the northern sea. As long as she waited here, she could meet up with him.
Bruce rubbed his head and staggered to sit up, feeling numb. "Where's Miya?"
After saying that, he hurriedly looked around for Miya. If he let her escape, it would attract even more trouble.
Darcy said, "She almost escaped. Fortunately, Miss Bridges arrived in time and subdued her again."
"She's locked up in another room now."
Bruce breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. "Well, that's a relief!"
"Take me to interrogate her immediately. We must find out how to enter Paradise Island," Bruce insisted.
After saying that, Bruce staggered to his feet, eager to interrogate Miya. Unfortunately, he got up too quickly and almost fell before he could fully recover the use of his limbs.
Seeing this, Aria quickly went forward to support him and said gently, "Bruce, be careful not to fall."
"I'm fine."
"Let me help you over!"
Five minutes later, Aria assisted Bruce to a hut in the back.
Due to the cultural difference, the houses here were all made of wood or straw huts. They were all very simple, and there were no courtyard walls.
Miya was tied to a pillar with a cowhide rope.
"Tell me the exact location of Paradise Island, and how do you enter Paradise Island?" Bruce pressed with a menacing tone.
