Eight Thousand 1

Hump Village was a small and secluded village in City Y, East Sea province. Harold couldn't get inside of it when he pulled over to the entrance. The road paved inside to it was too narrow to drive in and even narrower than the road to the Lotus Tea Manor. He got off from the car and walked further, failing to find a single soul along the way.

This was more like a discarded place, without remains of living creatures and without any hints of human flesh. It was even impossible to see one small kid around this town.

Harold walked through the deserted place and finally saw an aged old man farming in his farmyard. He walked closer to the old man, who was busy with digging sweat potatoes. There were sweat potatoes in all kinds of shapes scattered on the ground in a cloth bag, being peeled off from their muds, shining in their magenta skin.

"Hello sir," asked Harold, "Do you happen to know Spencer Smith, Doctor Miracle?"
