    Chapter 311 Eight Different Tears


    The dolls disyed outside the store appeared normal, but the dolls became scarier as they went in.


    Inside the workshop, the dolls took on a more eerie appearance, especially the ones with pale faces,


    round blush on their cheeks, samurai with half–shaved hair, and a bun on top of their heads.


    Every doll’s style was realistic.


    As the ss door of the workshop at the back was pushed open, a musty smell wafted in, catching the


    attention of a police officer who paused upon seeing a pool of y on the floor.


    He noticed the smell was strange since he had years of experience.


    “Investigate the y,” he whispered.


    Unseen by them, a pale–faced man in a white robe floated in the air with seductive eyes and vermilion


    lips.


    It was Pablo.


    He nced around, then approached the disy cabs and frowned at the eerie and otherworldly


    objects within.


    “I guess all kinds of ghosts came up during the 15th of July…”


    He swished his robe, noticing the dolls with distorted expressions, and with a flick of his hand, a faint


    snapping sound echoed as something was damaged, though he could not tell what it was.


    Then Pablo drifted away and went to find Lilly.


    After Drake led Josh and Lilly away, Lilly said she was hungry and wanted to eat.


    Drake contemted reporting a false police report and looked for a ce to sit down and make a


    phone


    call.


    As they stepped into the lively shopping mall, their eyes immediately caught sight of a Starbucks near


    the entrance. Drake’s urgency to find a seat and Josh’s concern for Lilly’s hunger overshadowed their


    attention, causing them to unintentionally overlook it.


    They eventually found a restaurant where Josh promptly requested water for Lilly, while Drake took out


    his mobile phone to make a call.


    Just as he was about to make a call, his phone rang.


    After answering the phone and exchanging a few words, Drake’s expression grew increasingly


    perplexed.


    He responded, “We had no idea either. My sister was simply talking nonsense.”


    After providing Anthony’s phone number andpany address, Drake ended the call.


    Josh asked, “What’s wrong?”


    Drake stared at Lilly, and whispered, “Those things were probably made of human ashes,”


    he had not entered the back area.


    Josh looked at Lilly with a serious face and asked, “What’s going on here?”


    Lilly chugged the water and had another ss.


    She was probably the only person who seemed to be carefree after seeing those things.


    Lilly tilted his head. “I dunno, I have to ask Master about this,”


    Josh asked, “Where’s your master?”


    Lilly spoke up. “Master sent my mother to be reborn and he’s handling other matters,”


    Josh quickly expressed her frustration, saying, “Hasn’t he returned yet? I must say, your master is the


    most. considerate master I’ve ever encountered. It’s been two or three days, and we haven’t seen


    him….


    He leaned in closer to Lilly, speaking in a hushed voice as if he feared Pablo would appear in front of


    them suddenly. He sped his hands together and approached her cautiously.


    His eyes were wandering around.


    However, in the next moment, a faint voice sounded above his head, “Josh, are you tired of living in t


    mortal world? If so, I can take you to the underworld so you can open your eyes…”


    Josh’s hair stood on end, and he stumbled, “Master, Master!”


    Pablo nodded, “My good son,”


    Lilly was puzzled.


    Since when was Josh Master’s son?


    the


    Drake looked at Josh with a puzzled expression and suddenly remembered the camera he had


    invented.


    Suddenly, the image of the pale diva doll he had seen in the store shed through his mind.


    A sudden chill ran down Josh’s spine as he realized that someone did not move the doll behind him,


    and now it seemed that the doll had moved on its own.


    The eerie smile on the doll’s face made Drake wonder if he had just seen a ghost.


    Was it a ghost?


    Drake hesitated, his finger hovering above the screen of his phone, unable to bring himself to call


    Anthony.


    Drake’s reaction was remarkable. Despite his initial hesitation, his body instinctively responded faster


    than his thoughts could catch up. With impressive reflexes, he swiftly struck the female ghost, sending


    her flying through the air.


    His quick reflexes were overshadowed by the realization that he had just seen a ghost.


    Lilly happily sipped the hot water, holding the cup with her tiny hands, and asked, “Master, has my


    mother gone to reincarnation?”


    Pablo replied, “Well… Most probably…”


    Pablo answered with most probably because Jean yed her cards unreasonably and that she made


    the olddy mad.


    Upon hearing the Master talk about it, Lilly’s eyes widened in surprise. “Did Mom say she wants


    another serving?”


    Pablo nodded in agreement. “The soup recipe has been passed down for thousands of years, and it


    may indeed be a bit outdated…”


    The soup was not static, it evolved with the changes of the world.


    All rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    When Lilly was still Little Hades, she selected the candidates to make the soup.


    The soup was made with the essence of eight different tears. The soup consisted of a single tear of


    innocence, two tears of wealth, three drops of bitter tears, and four cups of remorseful tears.


    It also consisted of five inches of lovesickness tears, six cups of tears of illness, and seven feet of


    parting


    tears.


    Thest tear was the Olddy’s tears.


    But Meng Po’s tears were hard to obtain, and it was a topic that Pablo did not want to discuss at that


    time.


    He asked, “Did you go to the doll shop?“)


    Lilly nodded and asked in confusion, “Master, what happened there? I saw dark energy swirling inside


    that wooden box, so I set it on fire. The bad aura gathered there, but I didn’t see a single ghost,”


    Pablo sneered and replied, “Of course, you couldn’t see any ghosts. Strictly speaking, it wasn’t a doll


    shop at all, but a dojo,”


    Josh was taken aback, and said in unison with Lilly, “Dojo?”


    Pablo’s expression turned cold as he remarked, “Some people who have afortable life are never


    satisfied with the simplicity and always seek trouble.”


    “That dojo serves as the starting point for a ritual. Those dolls are merely props for the ceremony. The


    timing of the ceremony will determine its urrence,” Pablo exined.


    Josh’s mind was filled with confusion.


    What dojo…


    What ritual…


    “What are they trying to do?”


    Pablo exined, “In simple terms, there are individuals who can’t ept their own circumstances, they


    feel inadequatepared to others and harbor envy towards their sess.”


    “So, theye up with malicious methods to exploit the fortune of the country,” Pablo added.


    As Pablo spoke, his voice grew louder, “It’s not borrowing the luck of the country, it’s outright stealing


    the luck of the country!”
