Lucasâs fingertips paused. He closed the menu and called the attendant over. âI want two hibiscus steamed eggs, steamed fish, braised pork, and a spicy chicken.â
Amelia pricked up her ears and was instantly relieved to hear that there was spicy food.
William asked, âYou ordered so much. Can you eat?â
Amelia patted her chest. âDonât worry, Iâm here!â
Lucas scoffed and said nothing. He just tore open the disposable cutlery and carefully washed it with boiling water before putting it in front of Amelia. While they were eating, on the other sideâŠ
Through some means, Moon sent the dollâs shoe for testing. Looking at the test report sent back, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Did it really have ashes?
Moon was stunned. The test report in his hand fell to the ground like snowflakes.
âImpossibleâŠâ Moon hugged her head. âHow can I be so stupid!â She couldnât even tell if there were ashes! Ameliaâs words couldnât help but ring in her ears: Youâre stupid, youâre stupid. Youâre the stupidest in the world!
Moon: â â Iâm not eating! Iâll work hard to go now! She found out about the doll shop where Sara customized her dolls and rushed over. When she arrived, she realized that the doll club was surrounded by a cordon. From the surrounding audience, Moon learned that this doll club had been exposed to use peopleâs ashes to make dolls. The police were recalling the dolls according to the sales records. She heard that the boss of the doll club had run away, they only caught one of the shopkeepers. The shopkeeper didnât seem to know anything, and she was so frightened that she almost fainted. Moon was instantly dumbfounded. Who was it? Who beat her to it? âI heard that three children called the policeâŠâ
âThose three children are so pitiful. Itâs said that when they saw the bone-biting scene in the workshop, they peed their pants on the spot.â
Moon walked past the passerby who was talking. She couldnât take it anymore. She stopped and said, âDid you see them pee in their pants?â
The passerby had never seen such a cold child and was stunned. âThat⊠I just heardâŠ
Moonâs expression was cold. âDonât spout nonsense if you didnât see it with your own eves. Rumors stop at the wise. Donât be an idiot.â With that. she left
without looking back.
The two passersby opened their mouths and looked at each other. Who was this child?! How annoying!
Moon walked out of the commercial building and entered a toilet. She closed the door and trembled with anger! What ordinary children would come to such a place?! There was no such thing as a coincidence in the world. One of the three children that the passerby was talking about was definitely Amelia! Damn it, not only was Amelia right, but she was also one step ahead of her and wiped out the doll club at once! As for her! She was like an overconfident fool. By the time she found out that there was really ashes in the doll, Amelia would have finished everything! She came for nothing!
Moon refused to admit defeat. Before Amelia appeared, she had always been very powerful! She investigated alone, captured ghosts alone, and secretly eliminated something that shouldnât have appeared. Why did she become an idiot after Amelia appeared?!
Moon didnât even eat dinner and went to investigate the mastermind behind the Haruhi doll club overnight.
Amelia and the other two returned home and lowered their heads under Mrs. Waltonâs stern gaze. Mrs. Walton said, âWhere did you go? Why did the police come?â
Lucas said calmly, âMia likes dolls. We were about to order one for her when Mia happened to see something strange, so we called the police.â He spoke casually, as if Amelia had noticed something amiss as soon as the three of them entered and they had quickly left to call the police.
Mrs. Walton looked at Lucas suspiciously. The child never lied. Perhaps she was worrying too much?
George, who was at the side, said, âLucas is telling the truth. After he called the police, he thought that he had called the police for something fake. He didnât expect it to be true.â
Georgeâs words were even simpler. When he spoke, his expression was firm. The innocent Mrs Walton completely believed him and nagged, âItâs really strange. Why did you encounter such a thing just by strolling around? Donât run around in the future, understand? Tell me what doll you want to make. Iâll get someone to find a proper studio.â
Amelia and William nodded fervently. Lucas was still a man of few words.
Mrs. Walton waved her hand, and the three of them quickly returned to their rooms as if they had been pardoned.
In the room, William began to fiddle with another metal basin as he asked, âMia, are we just going to ignore it?â Although the Haruhi doll club had been destroyed by the police, the mastermind had escaped! Perhaps if they changed their names tomorrow and started over, no one would know!
