But then Elisa pulled him from behind and shouted, "This way!"
Only then did Parker snap back to reality. He looked back and realized there was an intersection ahead. After all, he was also half a Nightingale. Seeing this intersection gave him a sudden shiver, and he asked, "Wait a minute, haven't we been here before!?"
Elisa nodded—the intersection had no markings of theirs; they indeed had not been to this place before.
"Left or right?"
"There are traces of chains being dragged on the right."
"Then it's left."
Without a word, Parker took the lead and charged forward.
It was only after he had run with his short legs for a good while, almost out of breath, that he suddenly realized one thing—there was no sound from behind. He looked back and was almost scared to death—in the pitch-black corridor, Elisa was nowhere to be seen.
