Chapter 87 2-2-5-2-6 Years Old Is Really Old, Right?
Valentine raised his head, revealing his face covered in snot.
Dumbfounded, Lilly quickly took two steps back, unable to continue comforting him.
Mrs. Taylor, who was floating at the side, said, “You’ll look ugly if you cry! You’re already grown up, but you still let your snot flow into your mouth…” A hint of helplessness flashed in her eyes as she thanked Lilly, “Thank you, Lilly.”
Otherwise, she did not know how long she had to suffer. In the end, she would even be “killed” by her son. There was nothing more tragic.
Lilly shook her head as she said, “No problem, Granny.” After a moment, she continued with a fierce expression, “However, I’ve put up with you since you scared me last time!”
Mrs. Taylor laughed and apologized, “I’m sorry! I won’t scare anyone anymore!” Well, who asked Lilly to be the little Hades? Other than going to her, Mrs. Taylor had no other choice.
Mrs. Taylor sighed and said, “Can I talk to my son?”
Lilly felt a little awkward, but Pablo raised an eyebrow.
“Alright, Lilly, I’m going to teach you something amazing! This spell can allow a spirit to speak through someone else’s mouth!”
Lilly was taken aback. “Is that what it means for the dead to speak?”
Pablo replied, “Well… I guess you’re right.”
Lilly nodded. “I understand.”
Charlie stared at Lilly talking to herself and asked worriedly, “Mr. Anthony… Has the Little Miss always been like this?”
Anthony replied indifferently, “She’s talking to someone on the phone.”
Josh also nodded. “She’s wearing a special earphone.”
The father and son were spouting nonsense with straight faces.
Charlie was speechless. Was… Was that really the case?
Pablo said, “Come on, repeat after me. May the Dragon City fly!”
Lilly said, “May the Dragon City fly!”
Pablo continued, “Come on baby, don’t be shy.”
Lilly repeated after him, “Come on baby, don’t be shy.”
Pablo immediately laughed.
Everyone present was speechless.
Pablo could not help but think that Lilly was too gullible!
Lilly glared at him. “Master, you’re tricking me again!”
Pablo coughed and said, “No, no. This skill requires someone who is somewhat related to the dead person. No one’s suitable here, so I’ll teach you another skill, reviving corpses!”
Lilly said worriedly, “Master, if you trick me again, you’ll become a stinky fart!”
Anthony could not help but smile. Although he did not know what Lilly and her master were discussing, Lilly’s fierce expression was adorable. Even Josh felt relaxed and thought that everything was not as scary anymore.
The moment he thought that Mrs. Taylor, who was lying on the bed, suddenly took a deep breath and sat up!
Josh was so shocked that he quickly hugged Anthony’s thigh. Anthony was speechless.
Charlie exclaimed, “The corpse… revived?!”
Lilly blinked her eyes innocently, “No, I just accidentally stepped on the bed’s button!”
Charlie was rendered speechless.
Soon, everyone left the room, leaving Mrs. Taylor and Valentine alone to talk.
In the room, Spirit-calling Banners fluttered with the wind, and the yellow talismans on the wall rattled. Mrs. Taylor lowered her head, her arms resting by her side weakly.
“Val…” She said slowly. Her voice, in addition to the surroundings, made it seem scary.
Valentine said nervously, “Mother?”
Mrs. Taylor could not raise her head, so her voice was a little muffled. “I’m leaving soon, so you don’t have to try saving me. I’m satisfied with my life.”
Valentine’s eyes turned red. “Mother…”
Mrs. Taylor continued, “Remember, there is something you must investigate in the future… Investigate the boy surnamed MacNeil who lived in our house when he was little!”
Mrs. Taylor had died, so the scenes in her life were the clearest now. She remembered that they saved a little boy, so he lived at their house for some time… He looked a little similar to the current Lilly.
“Maybe he’s Lilly’s father. He was seven back then, so he should be around 25 to 26 now. It’s the same as what Mr. Rosewood said. You should try your best to help the Crawford family find him, understand? Find a chance to talk to them about it.”
Valentine nodded seriously. “I understand, Mother.”
…
Lilly carried her Bunny and stood by the door, looking at the villa on the opposite. There were people at the villa, and they were all dressed in black. The funeral services came over, and there was also a police car at the side.
“Rest in peace, Mr. Rosewood!” Lilly said softly.
Old Mr. Rosewood had probably seen Amelia’s corpse. Unfortunately, it had been a long time, and Amelia had been long gone.
Lilly pursed her lips, and her big eyes seemed a little dull. No one knew what she was thinking about when she was quiet.
Pablo was dressed in a white robe as he leaned lazily to the side. He was holding a book, but his eyes were on Lilly. Compared to finding Lilly’s biological father, he was more concerned about whether she could endure this.
He wrote a line under Lilly’s name in his book, “vicissitudes of life”. Was Lilly going through a trial now?
As he thought about it, he heard Lilly talking to the parrot, “Polly, 2-5-2-2-6 years old is really old, right?”
Lilly’s mathematics was not very good. She was only 4 years old, and she had not even been to kindergarten.
Polly’s head rubbed against Lilly’s hand as it said, “Old mountain monster! Old mountain monster!”
Lilly put on a sad expression. She did not want a monster to be her father!
She did not manage to fill up her jar this time, but she learned that her father might be a monster!
After going through a fierce battle in her heart, she said to Polly, “Forget it! A child can’t complain about their own dad. Even if he’s a pig, he’s still my dad! Polly can’t complain about him too!”
Polly said, “Dad! Dad!”
Lilly laughed.
At this moment, Valentine walked out and whispered something to Anthony. After a moment, Anthony said, “Lilly, we’re leaving.”
Lilly sat in the car and looked at the Taylor residence as it got further away. She leaned on the window and said, “Mr. Val will get rich. It’s a place with rich energies.”
Anthony replied, “Mmhm.”
He did not know much about energy. However, he knew that one could only rely on themselves. Valentine had a good personality, so it was no wonder he would get rich.
…
At night, as the wind blew around the Rosewood residence. A black figure appeared in Old Mr. Rosewood’s room.
The figure wore black clothing and was about 6.2 feet tall. He pulled a chair over and sat down. Sitting crossed-legged on the chair with his fingers clasped, he stared at Old Mr. Rosewood’s bed.
“I’m a step too late,” he said in a low voice.
