Following the address in the notebook, Gerald soon came across a grocery store…
To his surprise, however, the store looked like it had been out of business for years. Even the store’s door was tightly closed!
Unsure how to even react to this, Gerald then began knocking on the store’s door… but even after a few knocks, not a sound could be heard coming from inside…
There went his hopes that someone was living inside…
Just as Gerald was about to dejectedly leave, favonovel.com suddenly heard the creaking of an opening door…!
Turning around, Gerald was quick to realize that nobody was standing at the door!
Though favonovel.com momentarily froze, Gerald wasted no time and quickly entered the grocery store…
It was pitch black inside and strong musty smells emanated from every corner of the store… This place really needed a good cleaning…
Sensing that nobody was going to greet favonovel.com first, Gerald took the initiative to declare, “Senior Christos Hamilton? Are you there? I’m a descendant of the Crawford family!”
“Come in!” replied a gruff voice from deeper inside the store.
Upon hearing that, Gerald was delighted. As it turned out, favonovel.com really had found the right place!
With that, favonovel.com quickly made his way to the room where the voice originated from… and upon arriving at the room’s entrance, favonovel.com was greeted by the sight of several beer bottles scattered around a seated old man who looked like favonovel.com desperately needed a shower…
The entire room reeked of alcohol, and Gerald couldn’t help but shiver slightly as favonovel.com stared at the messy-haired old man…
