The team members held the camera and analyzed the situation from their own experiences and observations. They noticed that when the camera captured the front, the captain's face changed slightly, and when it was photographed above, his complexion changed noticeably. Combining this with the reactions and behaviors of the others, they concluded that there were ghosts above them. With that in mind, they took a deep breath and proceeded.
However, just like before, the camera was turned off at that crucial moment. They could not help but repeat the captain's words, “Why did you turn it off...” The team members picked up the camera and saw the old woman sitting on the stone steps in front of the yard. Although their hearts trembled, they managed to stay relatively composed.
But when they raised the camera to capture the roof, they were confronted with the sight of a woman hanging from it. Her head was lowered, and her eyes were open, staring straight down. Her swaying feet would occasionally kick them in the face with the wind.
The team members could not bear the fright and jumped three feet high before hastily running out of the room. Despite being mentally prepared, they were still scared like dogs.
Blake’s expression remained cold as he said to them, “Are you embarrassed?” The team members trembled, feeling ashamed of their fearful reactions.
Blake continued, “If you're frightened like this, how can you handle bigger challenges in the future? Leave as soon as possible.” With a single word, he picked up Lilly and left, with Lilly waving goodbye to the old woman and the woman hanging from the beam as they exited the room.
“Goodbye!” She exclaimed, “Don’t hold any more grudges, and be on your journey!” The young girl waved his hand, causing an invisible dark energy to gently sweep across the small courtyard.
These two entities were resentful spirits, and their bitterness would not fade away. Whether they could be reborn after dispelling their grievances depended on their destiny.
The woman hanging from the beam fell to the ground with a thud, and tears streamed down the face of the elderly woman in the yard.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had a tumultuous relationship during their lives, constantly quarreling. After so many years since their deaths, they have finally reconciled and disappeared with each other’s support.
Lilly accompanied her father to the bottom of the village where a dry well was located and rescued the three team members stuck inside. There was nothing more for them to experience in this village.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe remaining entities were wandering ghosts, and they had little impact on Bones, let alone Colton and the others, who were unable to perceive them.
Blake stated, “If you want to grow stronger, you need to find a place with feral ghosts.” “The spirits in this village are too weak to be a challenge for me.” Colton kept quiet as he thought Blake was bragging, but he had no evidence to prove it.
The team members were also silent. This village was already terrifying, yet they still aspire to find a place with more feral ghosts.
Upon descending the mountain, Bettany and the others had been waiting for a while.
Polly jumped up and down in the cage, shouting, “Let me out! | can eat ten kids in one bite!” Everyone was speechless.
Bettany observed Lilly, relieved to see that she didn’t have a single injury.
As for Blake... well, it did not matter if he had tough skin and a sturdy body; what mattered was that he did not get hurt.
“Are you alright? Are you hungry?” Grandma asked first.
Lilly smiled and patted her stomach, saying, “I'm a little hungry.” Bettany continued to nag and took Lilly into the car, deciding where to stop for dinner.
Noticing Colton, Melody was slightly surprised and asked, “Why are you injured?” Colton responded casually, “It's nothing.” Melody was speechless.
Would it hurt to say a few more words? He replied with two words, “It’s nothing,” knowing how much she cared for him.
In a fit of anger, Melody pulled Ivan and got into the car. She called out, “Ivan, let's go!” Colton was puzzled, wondering what was wrong with him and why he was being treated like that.
Finally, the group of people left that haunted place behind.
Colton was planning to lead the team back to Alfornada, but since the Crawford family had a private jet, they decided to accompany them on the way back.
At the airport, the adults handled the luggage, and counted the number of children, ensuring that all seven of them were present.
They walked out of the airport in confidently and prepared to get in the car.
Ivan watched Lilly happily chatting with her brothers and sisters, realizing that it was time to say goodbye.
He turned his gaze away silently, preparing to get into the car.
Suddenly, she heard Lilly shout, “Ivan!” Lilly came running towards him, holding something in her hand.
Ivan felt a genuine sense of happiness but maintained a cold expression. He asked, “What is it?” Lilly raised her hand and handed him three bracelets, saying, “These are for you!” Ivan was surprised, instinctively taking them, and asked, “Why are you giving these to me?” Lilly explained, “They're protective bracelets. One is for you, and the other two are for Mr. and Mrs. Shaw.” Melody, standing nearby, smiled and said, “Oh, there's one for me?” Lilly looked up with a bright smile and replied, “Of course!” Ivan put the smallest bracelet on his wrist.
Melody took the other two bracelets and casually asked, “I thought you didn’t like wearing these...Let me keep them for you.” These bracelets were made of purple jade, making them quite valuable! Melody had to be cautious with them.
Ivan put his hands in his pockets and snorted coldly, “Why do adults lie to children?” She said the same thing during New Year's.
Who said he did not like wearing them? These bracelets were nice, and he would wear them.
Melody was speechless but also extremely happy that her son had found a friend.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe was always a loner in the past, she wondered if he had autism because of it.
Fortunately, not only did he become good friends with Lilly, but he was also close with Drake and Josh, finally giving Melody some peace of mind.
Bettany took the children home first, and Grace was also dragged home by Lilly.
On the other side, several team members stood in a straight line and saluted Blake.
Blake and Colton stood in front of them, and Blake gave them a stern evaluation.
“Damian, you need to practice more, and you were the one who screamed the loudest when you got scared!” Damian felt unfairly targeted, but he did not say anything. After all, who told him to be the first one to be tricked? If he had gone in last, he definitely would not have screamed so loudly.
“Yes, sir!” Damian replied loudly.
The other team members were also criticized. None of them passed the assessment this time.
At the temporary parking spot outside the airport, a plain white car was waiting by the roadside. After their training, the team members would have a day off, returning home before reassembling with the team.
Inside the white car, a young girl sat in the driver's seat, watching Blake and Colton attentively as they interacted with the team members.
Damian quickly got into the car. Once inside, he relaxed and happily said, “Rain, why are you here so early? Didn't | tell you to come at 4.30?" “Even though the plane arrives at four o'clock, our captain and commander still have to train the team... | wouldn’t mind if you picked me up at 4.30 cause it'll be done by then. | can wait for you a little longer. Why are you here so early?” Damian was quite talkative in front of his girlfriend. He adored her, could not help but pinch her cheek, and kissed her.
Rain smiled and said, “Stop fooling around. | missed you and wanted to see you as soon as possible.” Damian had a silly smile on his face.
Rain pretended to be casual and asked, “By the way, are those two who were training you your captain?”
