Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gyala quickly shook her head. âl donât know. Itâs not my stuff in here. Itâs the landlordâs. He said it was some computer accessories and some junk. He told me not to move it. Just leave it like this.â
Alex scoffed. âAre you that assured? Are you going to leave it just because he told you to?â
Gyala was speechless and said resentfully, âThere wonât be anything in such a drawer, rightâŠâ This kind of situation was quite common. The landlord rented out the house, but he couldnât bear to lose some of his old items. He didnât have anywhere to move them, so he would leave them in the original house and remind the tenants not to touch these things, or simply let the tenants use them.
Alex scoffed. âYouâre quite trusting.â
Amelia shook her head and added, âSister Gyala, youâre so trusting.â
Alex: â
Gyala: â
Alex wore gloves and tore off the transparent tape that was sealed on the drawer. Gyala said, âThis is the smell of dead rats that I smelled this morning. freew(e)bnove(l)
It was really too smelly, so I sealed itâŠâ
Amelia was puzzled. âSister, it stinks in here. Donât you find it strange?â
Gyala shook her head. âl thought the rats were dead in there. I even called the landlord.â
Alex paused and was speechless. Some young people who had just entered society were indeed innocent, but someone as innocent as Gyala was really⊠One day, when they were sold, they would even help count the money.
The moment the transparent tape was torn off, a stench assaulted Ameliaâs face. She hurriedly covered her nose! At this moment, the female ghost that she had pieced together slowly woke up. Seeing this, she was confused for a moment. âWho are you?â
Amelia didnât answer. Her father had told her not to talk to ghosts when they were outside, in case they thought she was crazy. Although Amelia didnât think so, her father must have had a point, so she was obedient enough not to talk to ghosts.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, the female ghost was used to it. After all, ordinary people couldnât see ghosts. Those who could see ghosts were the anomalies. However, she glanced at Amelia suspiciously. Just now, she only heard the sound of the door being kicked open. Right on the heels of that, a peach wood sword smashed straight at her⊠Then, she shattered! The female ghost wasnât sure if the person who threw the peach wood sword at her was Amelia or⊠She turned her gaze and looked straight at Alex. Then, she floated over faintly, her mouth stretching to her ears. She suddenly leaned closer to Alex. âIs that you? You can see me, right?â
Alexâs expression did not change. He was unmoved.
Amelia was confused. What was this female ghost doing?
Seeing that Alex didnât even blink, the female ghost was puzzled. Could she have made a mistake? The man in front of her looked like a Daoist priest. It couldnât be that this immature child was a Daoist priest who collected ghosts, right?
The female ghost saw Alexâs actions and squatted at the side. She said bitterly, âSomeone finally found meâŠâ She had been lying inside for a long time. She couldnât remember how long it had been. She only knew that it had been a long timeâŠ
Alex pulled hard on the cabinet door. It was locked and wouldnât open. He crouched in front of the cabinet and asked without looking up, âDo you have a screwdriver?â
Gyala hurriedly got up. âYes, Iâll get itâŠâ
Amelia imitated Alex and squatted in front of the cabinet. âDad, itâs locked.
Can you open it with a screwdriver? Donât you have to use a key?â
Alex reached out and touched the lock. Gyala happened to bring in a screwdriver. He took it. âDaughter, watch carefully. Daddy will teach you how to pick a lock today.â
Amelia nodded. âYes, yes!â
Alex really explained seriously, âLook, touch it first to confirm the approximate location of the lock coreâŠâ freeweb(n)ovel
Amelia held out her hand. âTouch it. Whereâs the lock core⊠Alex said, âThen stick the screwdriver in this spotâŠâ
Amelia said, âAnd then stick the screwdriver in this spotâŠâ
Alex said, âThen this way first, then thisâŠâ He held the screwdriver in one hand and exerted strength in his palm. With a bang, it hit the top of the screwdriver handle. The lock clicked open.
Amelia seemed to say, âUnderstood!â Wasnât this just physical work! She knew how to do it too! She would give it a try when she got back!
Alex didnât know that Amelia was thinking about this. He pulled open the drawer. He didnât expect it to be quite deep. It was up to the bed and hadnât been completely pulled out..
