Chapter 310
Spoiled (Lily)
Chapter 310 Exposing the Shop Drakeâs heart tightened, he stood up and whispered, âLilly!â
Lilly raised her head and comforted him, âDonât worry Drake, everythingâs fine!â
Drake was helpless.
It seemed that the dangerous situation was planned intentionally, and Lilly, being a young child, wast unaware of the imminent danger they were in.
Drake forcibly pulled her away, âLetâs go, why did you and Josh want to come here in the first place?â
He was sure that the place was not normal at all.
Lilly said, âItâs a place where there are a few people here! Donât you hate crowds?â
Drake was speechless.
âLetâs go,â He dragged Lilly out with a cold expression.
Lilly hurriedly took out something from her bag. âNot yet, Drake. Iâm not done with my job yet,â
She took out a handful of talismans, ran to the box, and struggled to open it.
I canât open itâ¦
âDrakeâ¦â She had no choice but to look at Drake with wide eyes.
Drakeâs heart raced as he cautiously opened the wooden box, only to quickly retreat in shock as he discovered its unsettling contents.
As Drake took a step forward, he suddenly felt something slippery beneath his feet. Looking down, he was startled to find himself stepping on mysterious black hair.
Drakeâs heart skipped a beat.
Lilly tossed a talisman into the wooden box, causing a sudden burst of green flame.
A sudden scream pierced the air and quickly faded away.
Drakeâs eyes widened in shock as he stared at the blazing wooden box.
When⦠did she light it on fire?
Did someone scream just now?
He wondered if he was hallucinating.
When the flames extinguished, Drake lifted Lilly and hurriedly made his way out of the room J However, Lilly was holding a small shovel and waved her hand, âDrake, can you wait for me a bit, please? Itâs just gonna take a while!â
Drake held Lilly tightly in his arms, observing her determined expression as she stirred the contents of the wooden box with a small shovel.
While stirring, she muttered, âLetâs kill the bad guys! Letâs do it!â
Drake was silent.
After he saw Lilly stop, he grabbed the small shovel, tossed it aside, and hurriedly headed toward the glass door.
Sure enough, the door was locked.
âWe canât get out,â
Drake immediately raised his watch and was ready to make a call, but found that there was no signal.
Eventually, he decided to call 911 because it was possible to call them without a signal.
When the phone was connected, Drake said calmly, âHiâ¦weâve been locked in the Spring Friends.
Dollhouse on the 38th floor of the Opelucid Building in Pearl Districtâ¦â
Before he finished speaking, he saw Lilly grabbing the iron lock and pulling it hard.
The iron lock thicker than her arm was torn open immediately.
The lock on the glass door clicked and opened.
Drake froze immediately.
âLetâs go, hurry!â Lilly pulled Drake.
Drake opened his mouth, but could not utter a word and stared at Lilly dumbfounded.
Was the door opened?
Lilly tipped her toes and spoke, âHello, Mr. Police, would you hurry up? There are human bones hereâ¦â
Drake hastily hung up the phone.
You canât simply make false accusations in front of a police officer; it may lead to legal consequences.
Drake hurriedly led Lilly outside, but a thought struck himâwhat if the bad guys were after him? He wondered if Drake was still outside.
As they hurried past the unsettling display of dolls, Drake paid no attention and continued pulling Lilly along. She struggled to keep up, panting, and said, âDrake, slow down! I canât keep up!â
Drakeâs instinct kicked in, and he slowed down, his eyes widening as he noticed a doll floating behind Lilly. A chilling realization washed over him as he realized that countless people were lurking in the shadows, silently watching their every move.
The next second, the doll smiled weirdly and rushed toward him!
Drake punched it hard without hesitation!
In a split second, the doll emitted a piercing scream, but Drake swiftly reacted and punched it, sending it flying through the air. The shrill sound echoed in the air, sending shivers down their spines.
Lilly held the talisman and was stunned.
Master said that some people have incredible positive energy combined with sheer anger. He said that when these people encounter a ghost, they have the ability to stare it down with such intensity, that it scares the ghost away.
In other words, not only people are afraid of ghosts, but ghosts are also afraid of people.
The female ghost in front of her was sent flying by Drakeâs powerful punch fueled by anger and positive energy.
Drake is so powerful!
Wow! Incredible!
Lillyâs eyes were full of admiration, she held a talisman and cheered, âYouâre so strong, Drake!â
Drake could not help but feel a surge of anger, finding it almost laughable that Lilly even praised him.
You have short legs!
Youâll be caught by them if you walk so slowly!
At that moment, Drake did not think that that was the ghosts doing, but rather suspected that the three staff members were trying to frighten him using the dolls intentionally.
âLetâs go!â He simply picked up Lilly and walked out quickly.
As they continued to pass through several rooms, the dolls on the showcases gradually returned to a more. normal appearance. He could even hear Josh talking to the lady.
Josh bargained with the lady, âI gave a deposit of 100,000 dollars, so I want it to be customâmade, but 1 million dollars is too expensive. Can you give me a discount? How about 200,000 dollars?â
The young lady was speechless.
How is this discount? Do you want us to go out of business?
Just as the lady was about to speak, he saw Drake carrying Lilly with a cold expression. He quickly grabbed Josh by the collar and rushed to the exit whether he liked it or not.
âTake it or leave it,â He said coldly.
Josh disappeared.
The three children appeared and disappeared suddenly, leaving the young lady chasing after them in vain. However, she realized they disappeared.
The young lady was speechless.
She felt numb, how could he bargain like that?
Wait, their depositâ¦
âHey, come back!â The young lady hurriedly said, âWe can still talk about it!â
It was a pity that no one respondedâ¦.
In the elevator, Drake grabbed his collar and stuck his tongue out, âDrake⦠phewâ¦â
Drake let him go, and Josh immediately slumped on the ground.
âWhatâs the matter, did you see ghosts?â He asked quickly.
Lilly shook her head, âThere are no ghosts!â
This was the weirdest part.
There were ashes and hair, but no ghosts.
Drake let out a sigh, got up, and pondered âWere we mistaken?â
Lilly shook her head but said nothing.
As the three of them left, they noticed several police officers rushing upstairs with a sense of urgency.
Josh asked blankly. âWhatâs wrong?â
Drakeâs expression turned grim as he realized he had filed a false police report. He knew he would have to explain the situation, which was quite bothersome.
However, he was unaware that the police surrounded the store, surprising the young lady in charge and causing her to panic.
In a rush, Zelda and the man could only grab the wooden box and two halfâfinished dolls, leaving behind everything else in the workshop.
The two quickly exited through the back door, wearing grim expressions on their faces.
âWhen did that kid call the police?â The manâs voice was harsh, carrying a cruel undertone.
âIsnât the door locked? How did they open it!â The man questioned himself, wondering if he had properly locked the door.
Zelda whispered, âLetâs go quickly. Thank goodness, there arenât any cameras inside. Otherwise, it would be too late to destroy the evidence,â
Reluctantly, they had no choice but to abandon everything and disappear without leaving a trace.
The police walked into the shop cautiously and felt something amiss the further they went inâ¦
