Chaptrer 36

"STOP!!!" his command in a voice echoed through the game area.

The flashlight did not leave the two of us. In the middle of the road, we decided to separate, split up, looking for hiding. I kept running looking for a place to hide. I saw a strawberry-shaped tunnel, before entering I went to another place to remove the water from my body, after there were no drops of water, I immediately entered the tunnel.

My hiding place is like a tunnel for children with the shape of a strawberry, yes this place is for children to enter and leave happily and cheerfully. But because I'm not too big, I can still enter, sticking my back against the wall so I can't see it from the outside.

The servant from the higher-ups continued to highlight all sides of the objects around the game area with his flashlight, I could see the light moving here and there, I kept my body stuck protruding against the wall. Instantly remembers Ansel and the maids, but I'm sure they'll be able to hide too like me, what I'm worried about is the seal.

Deg!

The beam of the flashlight aimed at my tunnel, the light slowly moving forward will soon enter. I blinked to hold my breath, my hands clenched into fists, to distract from the anxiety. I kept on swallowing, not realizing either, my neck was now covered with sweat, palms wet, not from the heat but because I was scared.

I slowly heard the footsteps approaching, the sound getting closer and closer. It's very close. I could feel someone at the front of the tunnel, he was standing right at the entrance.

"AAAAAAAH!!!" The scream made the maid turn her feet, also attracting her attention.

I was surprised too, lowered my body, and saw the maid rushing to follow the source of the sound. I slowly came out of the tunnel, stretching, which was previously stiff, frozen, I stepped on a puddle of water, yes it was the water that dripped from my shirt earlier. I sighed, relieved.

"What a troublesome maid," I grumbled in annoyance.

I sneakily followed the maid from behind, even though they had already left. Arriving at the source of the voice that appeared earlier I stayed behind the wall, trying to peek.

The eyes began to act, peeking from between the walls, the eyes caught the meaning of the voice shouting loudly. I was a little surprised, to see Ansel caught by the elder and the maid. I don't know where the maid is now and I don't know how to save Ansel.

Ansel was surrounded by servants and tied up, no higher-ups were there. Without my eyes realizing the waiter from one of them caught me peeking, I immediately cursed again, without turning my body the sound of pounding feet and flashlights came back into view.

But I noticed the footsteps slowly drifting away and getting less and less audible, and the flashlight is not in front of me now. I ventured to turn around, looking at Ansel. In fact, all the maids weren't there. I immediately looked to the right and left to make sure it was safe, I quickly ran towards Ansel, without discussing anything I immediately released the tape in his mouth and untied the rope that bound both Ansel's hands.

"Don't make a sound" I whispered quietly.

Ansel understood, we immediately ran with every step there was no sound. We went upstairs to my room, after entering I immediately locked the door, we couldn't catch our breath, apart from being tired we were worried.

I immediately pulled two towels, I threw them to Ansel and I covered myself with the towels.

"Esha..." Ansel said stammering coldly.

I slowly crouched down, cold too, but more surprised by the action you did, I don't know if we were all caught, we would be the welcoming statue in the hotel lobby. I'm still surprised.
