Chapter 4 The Secret Map

Jonathan Riddleman came out to welcome him. His strong hand shook Michael’s hand hardly. “Come on in, my boy.”
“What’s going on here?” Michael looked at him warily.
“Five days ago we’ve got a secret parcel from Boston. Nina will tell you the details about it. This is our secret base, but the package was for you.”
“For me?” Michael was surprised. He did nothing special in his entire life!

They walked in the basement of the factory. Nina Riddleman stood there, like a rock. “Good timing, Mr. Deschain.”
She continued, “Someone in Boston sent you a package, I don’t know why, but you really helped a lot, this place was what me and my dad looked for years.” She took the package to a table near where Michael was standing, turned on the light. The package seems normal, Nina took out a map from the package.
The Map of the Winslet Palace. And a familiar font, the word shows “CLASSIFIED”.
Michael was totally confused, why was the map and all the stuff be my business? Just because the name was same with the circus? They burned the circus! That was the place I worked in!
This place will change your life. Sun will still rise. Fortunately for you, Mr. Michael Deschain.
Who was that? Who said to me through my brain?
Nina was still talking to him, pointing at the map, but Michael couldn’t listen to it. A voice in his brain, louder and louder, saying over and over again…

Michael fell to the floor, unconsciously.

Nina said, “That was fast.”
Jonathan said, “Ya, bring him to the truck. We are going to see the king.”
