    Chapter 1223


    Nicole thought it would be a ruin with nobody around. However, as soon as she got out of the car, she saw us.


    us immediately chuckled when he saw Nicole as he walked toward her. "Why are you here, Miss Riddle?"


    Jared had given him an arduous task early in the morning itself, making him think that he was going to be utterly


    bored for the entire day, which was why he did not expect Nicole toe over.


    "Did Jared send you here?" Nicole guessed.


    usughed. "M-hm. You''re right, Mr. Johnston sent US here to im everything that can be salvaged before


    clearing the area for reconstruction.

    Tve got to give him credit where credit is due. Jared really is efficient,’ Nicole thought.


    "Alright, carry on," she said. "HI go and have a look."


    us quickly stopped her. "Miss Riddle! This ce is already in ruins, what’s there to see?! It''s not safe to walk


    here. Please don''t get yourself hurt."


    Nicole shook her head. "It''s fine. I''m just going to look around."


    Then, she asked us about the location where the fire had started, after which she went to the area where the


    generator was and examined it.


    As expected, she could not find the problem.


    us looked at her and asked curiously, "Miss Riddle, is there a problem here?"


    Nicole thought about it and said, "Bring me some tools. I want to crank it open and have a look inside."


    us nodded and got someone to bring a toolbox over.


    Nicole reached out for the toolbox and took one of the tools out as she stood in front of the charred generator and


    pried the shell open. As expected, the wires were already in a mess, but Nicole was still looking for clues.


    us was confused, but he knew that Nicole would never do something if she did not have a good reason to, so


    he just waited for her at the side.


    After some time spent inspecting the device, Nicole finally spotted an area that had melted in a manner different


    from the rest of the generator. Nicole''s eyes narrowed.


    us watched as she picked a wire up and examined it, so, in his state of curiosity, he asked, "Miss Riddle, is


    something wrong?"


    Nicole''s eyes darkened as she quickly a section of the wire off and passed it to us. "Put it in a bag and find out


    how this wire was melted. Then, follow the clues and continue investigating."


    us immediately nodded and took the wire. "Got it."


    He gotten word from Max that this fire was uncanny, so Nicole might have actually found a clue. With this in mind,


    us did not linger, and quickly brought it for inspection.


    Nicole watched him from the back with a wicked smile. "I''ll find you, no matter who you are!"


    After two hours, Nicole returned home to her parents, and as she exited her car, she saw that Sean and Steve


    were both getting off their vehicles too.

    They were bbergasted when they saw her. "Nicole?! You''re back?!"
