Just when they were about to lose hope in finding Derrick, someone said to have seen him at a sea port with chickens. The thugs told Ruby's manager about their findings and the manager told them to confirm the tip and get back to him.

“We found him," the head thug informed Ruby's manager when they had carefully confirmed the tip, his eyes shining with excitement. "We have a name and an address. We can take care of this now, if you want."

The manager was stunned, but he quickly recovered. He knew that this was a turning point, and he had to make a decision. "What's the name of the town?" he asked, trying to remain calm.

The thug smiled, a sinister expression that sent a chill down the manager's spine. "It's a little place called Hopewell," he said. "It's about a five hour drive from here. He works in a chicken farm,” He replied.

The manager was stunned. He had not expected this. He had thought that Derrick would be hiding in a big city, not working at a chicken farm in a tiny town.

    Derrick walked down the street, his mind racing. He had nowhere to go, and no one to turn to. He felt lost and alone, like he was drifting in a sea of uncertainty. The sun was beginning to set, and he knew he needed to find somewhere to spend the night. He turned down an alleyway, and saw a small, shabby looking building. It looked like it had been abandoned for a long time, but he decided to take a chance. He pushed open the door, and entered the dark, musty room.As his eyes adjusted to the dim light, he could make out the outlines of furniture and objects. It looked like someone had once lived here, but it had been long ago. There was a mattress in the corner, and it looked like it might be usable. He made his way over to it, and tested it with his hand. It was a little lumpy, but it was better than sleeping on the floor. He decided to make the best of it, and laid down on the mattress. He closed his eyes, and tried to sleep. But he couldn't stop thinking about his situation.Derr

He had no friends, no family, no home. He couldn't get a job in his current state and worst of all, he couldn't use his legs again.'Just great'. He thought as he continued riding his wheelchair to the walkway and out of the hospital.He had always questioned his existence, why the universe kept him alive and let him go through unfortunate situations. He let out a sigh and strode towards the hospital's junction, people's eyes towered over him but he didn't budge, "I'm sure seeing a young man alone moving around in his wheelchair is something people don't get to see much, I guess I'm just so unlucky." He said aloud sarcastically.

She shouted childishly, exhibiting all manner of dramatic gestures. A maid rushed in and bowed in respect to the duo."Clean him up and send him to the hall," Loretta said and walked off followed by her second in a male form."Please help me get out of here, these people are nuts. Can you imagine them accusing me of something I know nothin

He walked into the kitchen limping on one leg and using the clutch as a support for the other.He heaved a deep sigh as he looked at the unending pile of plates before him. "So this is what you want me to do universe? This is what you want me to do, fine. I will do it" He started by removing the numerous piles of plates in the kitchen sink, he filled the sink with water and poured in the detergent that read "too clean" he beat the water into a foamy lather, and one by one, he buried the dirty plates into the sink. Derrick washed the plate rather subtly with the anger and solidarity that had been on his mind since he was abducted by the duo.He had accepted his fate now with John's family, he had no other option He washed and washed, but it seemed like the more he washed, the quantity increased.

"Derrick, we need to talk.""What's going on, Tom?" Derrick asked, his voice firm but laced with concern."It's about the incident in the company cafeteria," Tom said, his eyes serious. "The police are investigating it as a murder case."Derrick's eyes widened in shock. "Murder? But who...how?"Tom shook his head. "That's the problem. No one knows.

    Before Tom could turn to confront Tiffany, she had vanished into thin air. He spun around, his eyes scanning the darkness, but she was nowhere to be found. And to make matters worse, the blind spot in the warehouse meant that there was no CCTV footage to prove she had even been there.Tom's mind raced as he tried to process what had just happened.
