Lilly raised her hand. “Uncle Anthony, I want to go to the toilet.”
Hannah immediately said, “I also want to!”
Josh stood up. “I’ll go too.”
Drake finally could not help but roll his eyes gracefully. Why does Josh even follow them to the toilet?
Lilly and Hannah ran ahead while holding hands.
Josh murmured in his heart. Why can girls hold hands when going to the toilet, but boys can’t?
Josh looked at Drake, who was walking behind.
Drake immediately said, “Don’t even think about it!”
Josh nodded. Well, it would be weird for boys to go to the toilet hand in hand.
Lilly and Hannah entered the toilet. Soon, Lilly came out and asked through the door, “Hannah, have you done?”
Hannah answered, “I’m pooping now.”
Lilly asked again, “Hmm? You said pee just now!”
Hannah replied, “Yes, I said it. But I can’t hold back.”
Lilly was speechless.
Hannah shouted, “Don’t run away! Wait for me!”
Lilly stood there for a few seconds. Hannah stinks! What should I do?
Lilly rummaged through her small backpack to find a mask and put it on. It still stinks.
She went on and found a small shawl. Bettany said she might be cold in the air-conditioned car, so Bettany gave it to her.
Lilly took out the shawl and wrapped it around her head and nose.
A woman could not help but be amused seeing Lilly like that.
“Your sister told you to wait, but you can wait outside if you feel smelly!”
Lilly answered, “No, I must keep my word.”
Hannah also yelled, “Don’t go!”
The woman laughed, shook her head, and went out.
Lilly felt herself out of breath. “Hannah, have you done?”
Hannah responded, “Wait, a little more.”
Lilly asked, “How much is a little?”
Hannah said, “I don’t know either. Let me see…”
The people queuing outside could not help but burst out laughing when they saw Lily and Hannah’s interaction.
Lilly folded her hands outside the shawl and continued to cover her nose. “Hannah, hurry up! I can’t hold it anymore!”
Flush! Hannah finally came out. “Let’s go! It stinks.”
Lilly ran out while shouting as she ran, “Oh my god, it’s smelly!”
Meanwhile, Anthony waited for the children to come out in the public aisle. He saw the wrapped Lilly running out first.
Seeing Lilly like that, Anthony felt strange and thought the public health of the playground was not good enough.
Anthony casually held his phone and sent a message. “Buy that land in the suburbs and plan an amusement park. Give me the plan tonight.”
Charlie, who received the message at the company, was full of doubt.
After Lilly ran out, she immediately took off her mask and shawl, then took a deep breath.
She originally wanted to say that the air outside was better. But she was still at the toilet door.
“Uh.” She quickly washed her hands and ran toward Anthony.
“Uncle Anthony!” Lilly ran happily with her two braids bouncing.
Anthony subconsciously bent down and hugged her. Immediately, he smelled a faint odor on her body.
Anthony tapped on the screen and sent out another message. “Especially the public health, plan it better.”
Charlie, on the other side, was more doubted. What happened? Mr. Anthony said he took Little Miss to the amusement park today. Did she fall into the toilet?
Lilly hugged Anthony’s neck and asked, “Uncle Anthony, can you help me find out where Aunty Rebecca lives?”
Anthony asked Lilly when he watched Hannah, Josh, and Drake approaching, “Why are you looking for her?”
Lilly whispered, “Catch ghosts!”
Anthony was stunned, then replied, “Okay.”
He did not even ask for the details and did everything Lilly wanted.
…
On the other side, Blake got all the information about the Crawford family, which included everyone’s photos.
“Jean Crawford…” He looked at the photo silently and asked gloomily, “She was dead?”
He frowned and inexplicably felt irritated. In the photo, Jean seemed pale and weak. He failed to see Jean’s face that night, but her eyes were familiar.
“I want to know her whereabouts in these five years. Go investigate her.”
The man on the side replied, “Mr. MacNeil, we don’t need to investigate that. Before Jean lost her memory due to leukemia, she went to South City. Little Miss of the Crawford family just came back from there.”
Blake fell in silence. He picked up Lilly’s photo again and placed it beside Jean’s.
Lilly Crawford. Hmm, it turns out I have a daughter now!
Blake’s mind went back to the past.
After his grandfather died, Blake did not return to ordinary life but chose the same path as his grandfather to continue his grandfather’s unfinished mission.
At seven, the underworld people found his grandfather’s identity and also killed his parents in revenge. As they hunted him down, he hid and wandered for eight years.
At fifteen, when he grew up, his appearance changed drastically. So he changed his name and successfully entered that underworld group.
At twenty, he became the leader of the underworld group known as Mr. Dark, but he had to take drugs to cover his true identity.
At twenty-one, five years ago, when he was about to complete the mission, his partner betrayed and exposed his identity.
As a result, the boss of the underworld group injected him with ten B-drugs.
B-drug was a club drug, and there was an unwritten rule about injecting B-drug, which was bringing women.
When cracking down on this kind of drug crowd, the police officers often encountered extremely chaotic scenes while breaking into the house. The people must have a mess inside. Because of the characteristics of that drug, he could not control himself after injecting ten B-drugs.
He did not even know how he caught Jean. The only thing he remembered was Jean’s panicked and despairing eyes.
Thinking of that, Blake felt a sudden pain in his head. He could not help but rub his eyebrows.
During those years of lurking, he did things recklessly and never considered guilt, except for Jean’s matter.
When the organization rescued him, they also wiped out the underworld group, then forcibly sent him to a secret training camp for drug rehabilitation.
The drug was terrible because it could destroy all wills. He could not escape its consequences either.
After two years of abstinence in the training camp, the organization dared not release him, so they sent him to the frontier battlefield. With the cruelty of blood and war, he finally got out from the bottom of the abyss.
Now, he was back. The first thing he did when he came back was to find Jean, the girl he had destroyed five years ago, but only to discover that she was also dead.
Blake watched the traffic outside.
During those eighteen years, all his close relatives died. Most of his comrades sacrificed. The only girl he ever slept with also died. It was as if he had nothing left.
Blake looked at Lilly in the photo.
She had smiling eyes and two shallow dimples. Her smile was sweet.
“Lilly…”
