As soon as George returned, he saw the children lined up neatly at the door like a welcoming line.
“What’s wrong?” George handed the briefcase to Mr. Smith and asked. Mrs. Walton nagged and told him about the children sneaking out to play. “I don’t know where they went. Is this a joke? They said they were going to the library, but they actually went to play secretly. What if they go to the reservoir one
During the summer vacation, many children went to the reservoir to play and eventually drowned. Mrs. Walton was not angry that Amelia and the others had secretly gone out to play, but that they did not tell the adults and even lied. This was very dangerous!
George looked at Lucas and said, “Don’t worry. With Lucas leading the way, he knows what he’s doing.”
Mrs. Walton looked at Lucas to hear what he had to say. Lucas didn’t blush or pant. “It’s just as Emma said. We went to the library.”
Mrs. Walton: “…” Did he think she was a fool?
Lucas pursed his lips and said, “It’s just that Emma didn’t study and read storybooks, so her descriptions sound like a story, unreal.”
Mrs Walton stared.
George smiled. “Mom, don’t you believe Lucas?”
Mrs. Walton snorted softly. Her eyes shifted, and her expression softened. “Alright, Grandma is just worried about you. It’s a good thing that you helped the librarian. I have to praise you.”
Emma heaved a sigh of relief and was even very happy! Great, great. She had successfully deceived Grandma! Then, she saw Mrs. Walton ask Amelia with a smile, “Mia, is the library fun?”
Amelia was caught off guard. “It’s fun. It’s just— Mrs. Walton immediately asked, “What is it?”
Amelia thought for a moment and said, “It’s just that my brothers and sisters are a little clingy. I almost couldn’t walk!”
Mrs. Walton was stunned. Clingy? What did that mean? Emma and William liked to stick to Amelia and play. She knew that, but Lucas and Harper would never stick to their sister.
Mrs. Walton wanted to ask more questions, but George brought her into the living room. “Alright, Mom. Mia and the others should be hungry. Let’s eat first.’
Amelia’s stomach growled cooperatively. She looked at Mrs. Walton pitifully and blinked her big eyes. “Grandma, my stomach says that it can’t hold on anymore. My brothers and sisters’ stomachs can’t hold on either. They say that they’re hungry and want to eat.”
Mrs. Walton said helplessly, “Alright, go wash your hands… Forget it, go take a shower. Come down and eat after you’re done.” Amelia and Emma instantly cheered. “Yay! Grandma is the best!”
Emma also said happily, “Grandma is the best!”
William was relieved and hurried upstairs to take a shower. Lucas liked to be clean to begin with, so he went upstairs without a word. Harper stood where he was. Mrs. Walton took two steps before turning back and asking, “Harper? You’re not hungry? Do you want to stand for a while longer?”
Harper quickly started walking. As he walked, he muttered, “We really went to the library.”
Mrs. Walton suddenly stopped and called out to Harper, “Harper, come to the hospital with Grandma tomorrow.”
Harper didn’t know that going to the hospital was to check up on him, but he nodded and said, “Okay.” During this period of time, he had been working as a tool at home. When Mrs. Walton danced, he would take a video or sprinkle some petals or something. Or he would take a hairdryer and blow up Mrs.
Walton’s skirt. She wanted the feeling of floating. Therefore, when he heard Mrs. Walton say this now, he didn’t ask what he was going to the hospital for. He agreed out of habit.
On the other side, after Amelia left after catching the ghosts, the Fourth Hospital fell silent again.
As evening approached, a tall figure suddenly appeared at the side door of the Fourth Hospital. He pressed down the baseball cap on his head and walked in. This person was none other than Alex. As soon as he stepped into the hospital, he felt a cold feeling that was very familiar. If not for the pair of footprints that followed him, he might not have been familiar with this aura. However, what kind of person was Alex? As long as he had experienced it, he could acutely remember this feeling.
Therefore, Alex walked in the empty hospital. Although he did not see a ghost, he could roughly feel it. There seemed to be footsteps behind him, and there was a feeling of being stared at from the left. There must be a ghost floating in front of him, staring at him without blinking. The top of his head was also cold. Alex could not help but think of the ghost movie he had seen before.. A ghost hung upside down on the roof and stretched out its hand to him…
