Valtteri

I arrive at the scene of the accident and see that there are two ambulance vans. It is quite quiet with cars, so there is no traffic jam at all. I get out and look for Lando. A little further on, where the traffic meets, I see a very familiar car approaching. It is Pierre Gasly's car!

Then the person also gets out and I indeed see Pierre Gasly. Where on earth was he all the time? I look around, searching for Lando. Then I see Lando lying in an ambulance. I quickly walk over to it.

'Good day, may I see my friend?" I ask an ambulance brother.

'Yes of course!" says the paramedic.

I step into the ambulance and stand next to Lando. His eyes are open and he looks at me surprised that I am here.

'Hey Valtteri, why are you here?" he asks surprised.

'I came looking for you,' I answer his question and his mouth forms a soundless 'o'.

'Hey Valtteri, what are you doing here?" suddenly Pierre asks, standing behind me.

''Valtteri, please find Roxanne again for me,'' Lando whispers to me and then suddenly falls away.

'Pierre, can you help me look for Roxanne?'

'I can give you a hint Valtteri. She's stuck somewhere in the woods,' Pierre says and immediately I jump up. Then I run out of the ambulance and run to my car. I get in quickly and start the engine. Immediately I step on the gas and with screeching tires I drive on, towards the forest.

I arrive at the edge of the forest and see a road. Immediately I turn in and drive onto the road. It is a bumpy road. Along me trees shoot past and here and there I see some animals running away. Then I see a house a little further on and I drive closer and closer. The house is not very big, but not very small either. I hit the brakes and stop in front of the house. Then I get out of the car and check my surroundings to see if no one is there. Totally no one at all!

I close the car door and lock it, then I walk to the front door. It is very quiet here. Nowhere can you hear a little bird. Gently I put my hand on the door and knock. Nothing! My hand goes to the doorknob and I try to open the door, which is simply open. This is very strange! Would Roxanne even be in here? If so, where would this kidnapper of hers be?

I enter the house and leave the door open. Silently I shuffle foot by foot through the house and look at all the rooms I find here.
