"I literally looked at my Snapchat location finder―on my phone― and saw your place. There was wifi on the base of Yushan (a mountain in Taiwan)―where you were held captive. The kidnappers ran away but I caught them and they're in jail now. They were my last job—to find them! Also, I might've sped out of work saying that I quit being a detective. Hehe... That's because you weren't at the cliff and I couldn't find you anywhere! My former―ish―boss might be a little, tiny bit angry. I'd do anything for you though," Ella speed-talked.
"Uh oh. I forgot to blur my location. Quick! Hide! Mr. Smartis is coming!" I silently laughed at Ella's boss's name but, I ran to a very green bush. Just then a dark shadow of a tall person blocked Ella. Uh oh. I ran toward her, toward the cliff. Mr. Smartis was menacing, with slick black hair. He wore a tight blue suit with black dress pants. I was so close to bursting out in laughter. He looked so freaky in his perfect suit but Mr. Smartis was so still, he looked like a frozen circus clown. Just then his gaze landed on me. In a blink of an eye, I stepped back. Uh oh, I forgot how close I was to the edge of the cliff! I stayed super still but my luck was low. The rocks cracked beneath me and I fell.
