After the rescue operation was over, the people who had gathered around the storm drain began to disperse, their curiosity piqued by the events that had unfolded. As they walked away, Dave could hear them whispering amongst themselves, speculating on what had taken place in the murky depths of the sewer. Some theories were more outlandish than others – there were those who believed that the crew had come across a creature from the depths, while others posited that they had simply gotten turned around and lost. Despite the different interpretations, one thing was clear: the events of that day would be talked about for a long time to come.
The search crew was unable to account for one of their own, leaving a deep sense of unease and confusion among the members. Despite the lack of information, they couldn’t shake off the nagging feeling that something terrible might have happened to their colleague. Meanwhile, the loyal German shepherd sat vigilantly near the entrance of the storm drain, as if keeping watch for any sign of their missing companion. As the night dragged on, the sense of uncertainty only grew more palpable.
