Chapter 650
Spoiled (Lily)
Lilly was the first person to express such unwavering belief in the owner.
While his friends had also said they believed in him, their reassurances provided some comfort to a certain extent. However, Lillyâs belief was pure and unquestionable, and he could sense it.
Lilly said, There are no ghosts in the coffee shop. If that girl was killed here, her ghost would still be lingering.â
Furthermore, based on the ownerâs looks and behavior, she could tell he was not a bad person who would kidnap people.
The owner smiled bitterly and said, âThank you!â
Ghosts were mentioned again, but Lillyâs perspective differed from others.
He sighed and said, âLet me treat you today! I finally have customers after three days, but it doesnât matter if I make a profit or not. What else would you like to eat?â
Lilly thoughtâ¦
Wow! Heâs so considerate! What a treat!
âThank you, but itâs not necessary. Otherwise, I wonât be able to eat Grandmaâs cooking when I go home. My Daddy will get scolded by Grandma if Iâm too full,â Lilly said seriously after giving it some thought.
Blake pondered to himselfâ¦
Wow, thank you Lilly for being considerate to meâ¦
The owner looked at her adorable face, speaking like a mature and earnest child.
âIn that case, let me treat you to some coffee! I wonât charge you for your drinks.â
After all, there were no customers, and if they did not drink them, these items would go to waste.
Lilly contemplated for a moment and proposed, âHow about this? Iâll help you solve the case, sir!â
The owner did not know if he should laugh or cry. What kind of case could a child help him solve?
The police had come several times and found nothing.
âSure, thank you,â he responded casually.
Little did he know that Lilly would start investigating inside the store.
As Lilly walked around, she chanted, âEscucha Las Palabras De Lasâ¦â as she drew a hexagram.
Trivial matters like this could sometimes reveal unexpected insights.
Eventually, Lilly stopped at the entrance of the coffee shop.
Hmm, is there something wrong with this door?
She raised her hand and touched the ground⦠Suddenly, as if receiving an electric shock, she swiftly withdrew her hand!
Josh immediately asked, âWhat happened?â
Lilly remained silent.
Blakeâs heart raced as he lifted her up, examining her closely. âAre you okay?â
Lilly shook her head and replied, âIâm fineâ¦â
She tucked her little hands close.
âOh⦠I now understand why dogs bark when they enter the shop!â
As soon as she uttered those words, a person outside the door, who had been taking pictures of the place, approached.
âWhyâs that so?â they inquired.
Lilly burst into tears, saying, âThereâs an electrical leakage at the door!â
Everyone was taken aback.
How could that be?
They had been filming for a month, and if there were any leaks, they would have discovered them by now.
Sheâs just a kid, sheâs probably saying nonsense.
Lilly confidently said, âYouâll find out when you walk inside, if you donât believe me!â
A man laughed and remarked, âThatâs funny. So many of us didnât notice it, but you noticed it? If there was a real leak, a dog wouldâve been electrocuted when it enters.â
âYeah, it canât be a leak. Weâve been here numerous times and havenât been electrocuted.â
âIt must be a ghostâs doing. You donât have a third eye, but I can see it! Thereâs a female ghost in front and staring right at youâ¦â a vlogger said, trying to frighten others.
âThink about it, why do all the dogs bark when we walk in? Itâs because the dogs can see that thereâs a âpersonâ hereâ¦â
As expected, screams echoed around, intensifying the scene.
Blake thought to himselfâ¦
This was the effect they were hoping for!
When it came to electrical leakage, they did not believe it at first. After all, if it were truly an electrical leakage, they would not be able to continue filming in the future.
Lilly said, âYou have to take off your shoes!â
The dogs barked when they come in because dogs do not wear shoes!
Josh supported Lilly, saying, âThatâs right, dogs are barefoot, while people wear shoes. Shoes act as insulators, so naturally, you wonât get an electric shockâ¦â
Hannah chimed in loudly, âExactly! What are you all blabbering about? If you have the guts, take off your shoes and walk in! If no one barks like a dog, Iâll call you Daddy!â
Hannah was being aggressive.
Everyone was speechless.
Where did this child come from? What does she mean by barking like a dog?
Could it be possible?
âIâll do it!â
During the silence, someone finally spoke up, saying, âIâll give it a try, and then weâll know!â
Refusing to believe in superstitions, he took off his shoes and declared, âLook closely, everyone! My name is Brendan, and Iâm a vlogger. Please follow my account and watch me test it for myself!â
The man smiled nonchalantly, walked into the coffee shop barefoot, and commented as he walked, âIt couldnât be an electrical leakage. If there were a power leak, so many of us would have been electrocuted long agoâ¦â
âBesides, even if there were a power leak, the dog would be fine, so it wouldnât be a big issue⦠oh!â
Before Brendan could finish his sentence, he suddenly jumped up, his eyes filled with horrorâ¦
As he was being electrocuted, he seemed to see something.
There was a girlâs reflection in the glass window mirror of the coffee shop.
She appeared different from the others, with her head hanging down and her hair cascading, standing quietly outside the crowdâ¦
âGhost⦠Thereâs a ghost!â The vlogger screamed in terror, backing away and looking back in panic.
There was no trace of that girl!
The male vloggerâs face turned pale.
However, he did not dare to try it again. He retreated, grabbed his camera, and ran away.
Everyone was left bewildered.
âWhatâs going on? What happened?â
âThat didnât seem like an electric shock. Could there be a ghost?â
The expression on the male vloggerâs face was too horrifying. It seemed as if he had seen something, and the fear in his eyes could not be feigned.
A chill ran down everyoneâs spine.
Instead, it piqued the curiosity of others. Someone stood up and declared, âIâll give it a try!â
He, too, removed his shoes and cautiously stepped forward. However, as he reached the doorway, he was startled.
The shock was so intense that the hairs on his arms stood on end. He recoiled with a groan, and he was just about to mention that there was an electrical leakage!
As soon as he looked up, he spotted a girl hovering above the crowd outside.
He could see her face clearly from his angle.
Her eyes were wide open, staring directly at him.
Similar to the previous male vlogger, the man let out a horrified scream, pointing at the figure above the crowd, grabbing his camera, and fleeing while screaming.
He did not even bother to wear his shoes, feeling as if he were being pursued by a ghost.
Everyone became even more bewildered.
Lilly gazed at the crowd, remaining silent.
Could it really be a ghost?
Furthermore, this ghost only appeared now.
When he was electrocuted earlier, the female ghost did not even show up.
She had been standing outside the crowd, but now she levitated above the people.
At that moment, everyone grew more excited as they thought it was thrilling.
Initially, when Lilly mentioned the electrical leakage, they dismissed it, but now, after witnessing two people getting shocked and screaming, they began to believe her instead.
However, why did those who were electrocuted scream and run away in fear?
âIâll give it a try too!â
âLet me go first!â
Everyone started to be the first to try it.
Lilly fixed her gaze on the motionless female ghost and warned, âPlease donât try it. It could cost you your life, and donât be frightened.â
Ironically, her words only made people more eager to try it.
