Chapter 111

Outside the window, a pair of feet was quietly dangling in front of Josh.

He followed along the bruised legs and looked upward.

A headless female spirit was holding her head in her arms. The eyes turned and stared at them.

Her white dress looked like it was dyed with blood, especially in her neck area. There were irregular placements of blood spurts downwards. One could imagine the picture before she died.

The female spirit tried hard to show a smile.

As her head was cut off, her face was pale because of the blood loss. She looked creepy as she smiled again.

“Ahh! Crap!” Josh jumped on the spot and cursed.

The iron bowl fell on the floor with a loud “clank”.

Lilly had not come to her senses yet. Josh run and hid behind her while holding her neck.

“Cough… Josh… Loosen up…” Lilly had her tongue out, “I’m… Dying…”

Josh seemed to be too scared, he did not let go at all. He just wanted to hide behind Lilly’s small shoulders.

Lilly had no choice. She can’t be strangled to death by Josh, right?

She mustered up her energy. “Bang!” Josh was thrown away by an over-the-shoulder move in the direction of the window.

Josh could feel the world spinning as he was on the ground. Luckily there were carpets around so he did not hurt his head and went cuckoo.

When his mind was cleared, he saw the headless female spirit hovering above him when he opened his eyes.

He rather went cuckoo. No, he rather faints with the fall.

Josh reached out shakily, “Lilly, help me get up.” His legs were weak.

Lilly quickly went to help Josh up, “Sorry, Josh. I didn’t mean to do it.”

“It’s okay. Is it the time to say this now?”

He glanced sideways and dared not turned his head.

“Since… Since when was she here?”

Lilly felt puzzled. How could Josh see the spirit again?

“She was outside when your iron bowl needle started spinning,” Lily replied.

She added, “Josh, since you are so afraid of spirits, why did you desperately calculate how to see spirits again?”

“This is not a conflict…” Josh said.

Lilly thought of Zachary who likes to play video games. She asked, “Is this called playing even when you suck at it?”

Josh was speechless.

Let’s talk about the female spirit first. Why Lilly could be so calm when the spirit is in front of her? She’s not afraid?

Josh tried to hold back his shaking legs and asked, “What kind of spirit is she?”

Lilly shook her head, “I don’t know!” Master is not back yet from the meeting. It had been two days!

Lilly looked at the female spirit and asked, “Aunty, what kind of spirit are you?”

The headless spirit did not answer while her eyes moved. There was a weird sound coming out from her throat too.

She floated towards Josh.

Josh was screaming mentally. Don’t come near me! Ahh!

Lilly felt a hint of danger and stepped in front of Josh, “Please talk properly. Do not hurt him.”

The female spirit screamed and lunged at Lilly viciously!

Lilly didn’t have much practical combat experience. Without Pablo beside her, she could only subconsciously raise her hand to block the attack.

The red bracelet in her hand immediately emitted a glow and the female spirit rebounded.

The female spirit was caught off guard, and the head in her arms fell off to the side. It rolled towards Josh’s feet.

The head turned and glared at Josh and the mouth was wide open.

Josh was shocked.

“Josh, don’t panic!” Lily said.

She ran towards Josh and yelled, “Attack!”

The head was being kicked like a ball and it was kicked out of the window.

The female spirit scurry aimlessly and floated out.

“Josh. You stay here,” Lilly ordered as she chased out.

How could he dare to stay in the room by himself? He hurriedly said, “Wait for me!”

Both of them ran out leaving the iron bowl and video recorder.

The light on the video recorder flickered, it recorded what happened just now…

—

Lilly ran downstairs. Old Mr. Crawford and Blake stopped their conversation and looked at her.

Only to see Lilly running out.

“Lilly? Where are you going?” Old Mrs. Crawford moved her wheelchair to follow.

Blake stood up and pushed the wheelchair. Old Mrs. Crawford looked back at him and was surprised.

She caught up with Lilly soon and saw her running to the back of the garden.

Lilly was looking in mid-air and the flower bed, searching for something.

Blake asked, “What are you looking for? Let me help you.”

Lilly shook her head, “Daddy, you can’t find it.”

“There’s nothing that Daddy couldn’t find,” Blake said.

He reckoned it was Lilly’s toy that had fallen. Finding something was as easy as pie for him.

Lilly shook her head and kept silent. What to do in case granny is scared?

Last time, Granny was shocked by Ivan who was covered in blood.

Josh arrived and he looked around nervously. He no longer saw the female spirit.

He calculated again once he calmed, “According to the parabola…”

He measured the distance from the window to the garden visually, as well as the angle of the female spirit’s head when it flew out.

“It should be over here…”

It could be found unless the female spirit changed direction halfway…

Lilly did not know what parabola meant.

She only had a hunched where the head landed. However, it couldn’t be found by her either.

The body of the female spirit was also missing.

“It’s strange. It’s strange!” Lilly frowned and muttered.

Old Mrs. Crawford asked, “What is Lilly looking for? Granny asked the people to look for it together.”

Lilly had to give up for the time being, “Nothing, Granny. I dropped a fart.”

Old Mrs. Crawford looked at Josh in a strange way.

“Well, It’s true. I teased her and said I threw her fart out of the window. She believed it,” Josh answered.

The crowd was speechless.

“Don’t always tease your sister! She is going to believe whatever you say.”

“I know!” Josh quickly answered.

Blake looked at Lilly and Josh back and forth.

Not bad, little boy. You’re good at covering up, but there’s still a trace of a lie.

“Let’s go back.” Old Mrs. Crawford said.

They turned around and went back and did not notice a woman was standing behind the shrubs.
