At that moment, another middle-aged Black man who was waiting for the others to create chaos heard the commotion and looked up at the mysterious pet beast running towards the volcano's crater. He was first stunned, then overjoyed:
"Fauler, I think our opportunity is about to come!"
The man known as Fauler, a middle-aged white man, also looked up. After a moment of silence, he asked:
"Why do I feel like I've seen this pet beast before?"
"That's the pet beast the kid was holding just now," McCarthy said with certainty.
He did not recognize the pet beast the kid was holding before, so he took a closer look, absolutely certain he was not mistaken.
"So it looks like this after growing bigger..." Fauler was visibly surprised.
Now, he was somewhat convinced that the kid was not ordinary, because the pet beast above was exuding one word: Expensive!
"How many more people?" Fauler asked.
"Three," McCarthy said.
"Tell them to start now," Fauler spoke firmly.
