Chapter 2058


    Dean''s mood instantly lightened. The money he spent was only meant to ward off bad luck, and he


    could always earn more again.


    Meanwhile, after chatting with Professor Greens, Avery stepped out of the bookstore wordlessly and


    locked herself inside her bedroom after arriving home.


    Ben tried a few times to ask what had happened, but he could not bring himself to actually ask the


    question. Once he got Avery home, he called Mike and told him to hurry home.


    When Mike hurried home, he went to knock on Avery''s door but did not dare to intrude when she


    did not respond.


    In the evening, Ben urged Mike to get Avery. "Go tell her toe out for dinner!"


    Mike shook his head. "I don''t dare to. I think Elliot might be dead. Why else would she stay quiet the


    whole time?"


    "You keep saying that! I''m really going to get upset!"


    "Then go ask her! What''s the point of shouting at me?" Mike shoved Ben toward Avery''s bedroom


    door. "You probably won''t be able to eat if you don''t ask her."


    Ben took a deep breath and blushed as he raised his arm hesitantly to knock on the door.


    A momentter, the door opened and Avery appeared before them.

    "Avery, it''s dinner time!" Mike said to her while standing behind Ben.


    Avery hummed in response and stepped out of her room.


    "Avery, what did that professor say to you? You look so depressed, and I''ve been worried sick the


    whole time." Ben followed her into the dining room.


    Avery''s expression darkened as she exined in a trembling voice, "Professor Greens told me that


    Ang is working on a way to bring dead people back to live."


    Mike and Ben gasped.


    "Ang might be using Elliot for her experiment." Avery sat down on the chair, but she had


    completely lost her appetite despite all the delicious dishesid out before her.


    "What do you mean? Are you saying that Elliot is dead and Ang is now bringing him back to


    life?!" Mike asked in confusion. 1


    "How can Elliot be dead? Avery was rescued after he was gone, and Avery was fine. How can he


    be dead?!" Ben could not bring himself to ept what Mike said. Even if Elliot was eventually


    brought back to life, he could not ept the fact that he was once dead.


    Mike was rendered speechless at the question, but ording to what Avery had said, this was what


    she


    meant.


    "I was confused about that as well until I spoke to Professor Greens today. He said that under those


    circumstances, the weaker ones actually survive longer because they do not require as much water


    :e,; WKW> food. On the contrary..."


    For stronger men like Elliot, he could starve to death after being deprived of food and water for


    three days.


    However, Professor Greens was not certain if Ang was experimenting on Elliot, but he promised


    Avery that he would help to find out.


    Though she did not have a confirmed answer, her heart was already filled with despair.


    Ben''s heart sank and struggled to breathe at Avery''s words. "Is it really possible to bring dead


    people back to life?" he asked in disbelief.
