After Mr Bruce has finished speaking (and laughing), a mafia-looking, bald man with tattoos all over his body and face appeared. He hauled Shaun up easily as if he had no weight and carried him outside of the little humid room. All the way, Shaun struggled, kicked and yelled but all was in vain, as either way he couldn't stop the tough man, and the fact that he was being tied up didn't help either.
布魯斯先生說畢後，一個看似像流氓、渾身刺青的光頭男子出現了。他毫不費吹灰之力地將孝恩抓了起來，抬出了那間小小又潮濕的房間。一路上，孝恩猛力的試圖掙脫，他又踢又叫，但是被綁住了的他根本敵不過強壯的刺青男。
"Boss, should I stop him from yellin'? He's getting' on ma nerves!" the mafia said in a gruff voice.
「老大，我要不要讓他不要叫？他很吵耶！」流氓用著低沈的聲音問道。
"Let him be Sebastien," Mr Bruce responded with a malicious grin on his bearded face, "There's no one around here that can possibly hear him anyways. Might as well let him scream all he can before he can no longer utter another sound. Hahahahahaha!"
「讓他叫吧，賽巴斯丁。」布魯斯先生臉上掛著邪惡的笑容說道。「反正，這附近也没有人會聽到的。趁現在他還能出聲時給他叫吧，等會兒他要叫也没辦法了！哈哈哈哈哈！」
Jeffrey looked on in horror as his friend was lifted onto the cold and mossy stones of the well and, with a mighty push, went into the well.
驚恐的傑佛瑞眼睜睜看著他的朋友被舉到冰冷、佈滿青苔的井上，然後被用力一推，推入了井裏。
To Shaun, at first, the fall seemed long and painful, everything seemed to be in slow motion; and images from his past life flashed in front of him. He saw his mother, his father, his friends, and his childhood memories all appeared in front of him.
起初，孝恩覺得整個掉落的過程十分的漫長，所有影像都彷彿電影裏的慢動作一樣。然後，他眼前便快速地閃過他這一生所發生過的種種點滴。他看到了媽媽、爸爸、以及他的朋友，就連童年往事也都清楚地浮現了出來。
"Am I really going to just die like this?" Shaun thought to himself, as he had a sense of powerlessness.
「我真的就這樣要死了嗎？」感到一種莫名無力感的孝恩心想。
Then, his senses seemed to come back to him, and he thought to himself, "No! I don't want to die so soon! I still have loads of things that I want to do in my life!"
然後，他突然恢復了意識，並想著：「不！我還不想死呀！我這一生還有很多事情想做，確還没機會去做呀！」
Then, suddenly, he seemed to perceive a white and glowing object emerging from the bottom of the well. As it got closer, he began to see a green face, no wait, it was a woman in Mediaeval clothing with a green face! The woman held out her arms, then Shaun felt a powerful force was pushing him back upwards, but with no hands touching him at all!
突然間，他看見了一團白色、發光的物體從井底出現。當它慢慢接近後，孝恩看到了一張綠臉，不，等等，是一張有著綠臉的中古世紀女人！那個女人伸出了手臂，然後，孝恩感到一陣強烈的力量將他推上去，但是看了看，她的手根本没有碰到自己呀！
"This is completely against the laws of Physics! What's going on? Who is she?" Shaun thought to himself.
「這完全違背了物理定律！到底是發生了什麼事兒？她又是誰？」孝恩心想。
Then, Shaun emerged from the well, and landed softly on the bit of grass next to it. Then, Shaun perceived that everyone seemed extremely frightened, the tough-looking guy that pushed in was scrambling away on all fours in fear, and Mr Bruce was rooted to the spot, as if unable to move. Only then, did he notice that the Mediaeval lady that had saved him also emerged from the well after him, she was floating above it.
隨後，孝恩從井口浮了出來，並輕輕的掉落在旁邊的草上。他注意到大家的表情都似乎非常害怕，那個流氓嚇得用四肢在地上爬著離開，而布魯斯先生則是彷彿被黏在了地上一樣，一動也不動。這時，孝恩纔發現，原來剛剛那個救了他的中古世紀女人也從井裏出現了，正漂浮在井的上方。
"Stop! Stop pushing people into wells!" A high-pitched scream that came from the Mediaeval lady pierced through the moonless night sky, like the sharp blade of a knife, eager for blood.
「不要再把人推到井裏啦！」一個高亢的聲音從那個中古世紀女人的嘴裏傳出來，並畫過了夜晚，像是一把鋒利的刀。
"'tis thee again, I see!" she said, as she pointed her ghostly, green finger at Mr Bruce, who was still glued to the spot, "Katrina! Thou have turned into someone else! But thou art still doing the same, evil thing thou did to me, to this young man here! People never seem to change, do they, ever? Not even after reincarnation!"
「又是妳呀！」那個中古世紀的女人用著她綠色的手指著布魯斯先生說。「凱崔娜！妳變成了另一個人了呀！但是，妳還是做了跟妳以前曾對我做過的事一樣，將這個年輕人推入了井裏。真是狗改不了吃屎，人是永遠不會改變的，對吧？就連轉世投胎後也是一樣！」
In fact, the Mediaeval lady was the wraith of the innocent Princess Patricia from the story, who was cruelly thrown into the well for something she did not do. Her ghost was still in the well, one thousand years after her death, until Shaun's determination of unwilling to die summoned her from deep down in the well. Now, she recognised Mr Bruce to be her reincarnated malevolent half-sister, what will she do to take revenge?
原來，這個中古世紀的女人就是故事裏無辜的帕特里夏公主被姊姊害死後的怨靈。她的鬼魂一直在井裏，直到一千年後，孝恩不想死的強大意念纔將她從井底召喚了出來。現在，她認出布魯斯先生就是她那邪惡的姊姊所轉世投胎的，她究竟會怎樣報復他呢？
