Chapter 255 Sticking to One''s Convictions


    Despite Ava’s uncertain tone, she was determined to stick to her convictions. Even if this incident


    was rted to ghosts, she would definitely not ask for help from the scumbag. She was set on


    having her team members bring down Jennflower''s body, refusing to give the scumbag the


    satisfaction of shaming her.


    Ava nced towards LightS, the tallest on the team, standing at six feet five inches tall. He wouldn’t


    need a stool; he could reach Jennflower''s body just by stretching his arms slightly.


    "LightS, you go take down Jennflower''s body."


    "Yes, Sarge!"


    LightS jumped into action. Yet, before he could reach out, just as he stepped near Jennflower’s feet,


    her body, whose legs were dangling naturally, suddenly lifted one leg and kicked LightS. Caught off


    guard, LightS was kicked squarely in the face and sent tumbling to the ground.


    Everyone saw what happened and were stunned—gleamed over, petrified by the incident.


    "What just happened? Did Jennflower''s body move?"


    "It seemed like it kicked LightS, didn’t it?"


    "She''s dead, right? Shitstrong dered her dead back at King’s! If she''s dead, why can her feet


    move? Why can she kick?"


    ...


    The team members discussed among themselves. The building had been strange enough to start


    with, and the recent incident just added an extrayer of creepiness to the atmosphere.


    Ava couldn’t quite believe what she had just witnessed and asked LightS, "Did you get kicked just


    now?"


    "Uh..."


    Picking himself up from the floor and rubbing his sore face, LightS couldn’t be sure one way or the


    other. "I''m not certain, but it felt like my face was hit. It could be that I was just moving too quickly,


    and perhaps my face ran into Jennflower''s foot."


    LightS couldn’t entertain the idea he had been kicked by a female corpse. Like the other officers, he


    was also highly educated and skeptical about the existence of spirits and demons. The possibility


    that he had hurried into Jennflower''s foot seemed more usible.


    The exnation that he had identally collided with Jennflower''s foot was grudgingly epted by


    the other members as it seemed like the most rational one they coulde up with for the situation.


    "Since it was an ident, this time be more careful when you go to bring down her body. Don’t run


    into her foot again," Avamanded LightS.


    As LightS prepared to make another attempt, Daniel offered a friendly warning, "You were kicked by


    Jennflower once already. If you go there again, you''ll get kicked once more."


    "Nonsense! Jennflower is dead; that’s just a body. How could a body kick someone? I was just


    moving too quickly before and that''s why I bumped into her foot; it’s not the body kicking me!"


    LightS was as unconvinced as Shitstrong. To those who didn’t believe in him, Daniel had little more


    to say. Since LightS didn’t trust Daniel’s warning, there was no use in trying to convince him further.


    Let LightS go and get kicked again. After all, Jennflower was possessed only by the little boy, and


    he didn''t pack a strong punch—he couldn''t kill LightS. At worst, the little boy might just kick out a


    couple of LightS’s teeth.


    Daniel casually put his hands in his pockets, ready to watch what was about to unfold.N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
