Chapter 459
At the same time.
Rose and Josephine had dressed up and snuck into the back garden of the Fragrant Vessel Court.
Rose had disguised herself as Jay while Josephine disguised herself as Rose. The two of them had
so much fun pretending to be husband and wife.
"Sister-inw, I didn''t expect your disguise to look so much like my brother! Especially your
demeanor, it''s s o profound," Josephine said.
Rose said, "Your brother has a poker face that hasn''t changed for thousands of years. I just have to
keep my face straight."
Rose followed the route based on her memory and walked to the end of the bluestone pavement. In
the front was a muddy path, and various vines as well as shrubs grew densely on both sides of the
path. The cold wind blew, making the shadows of the trees dance.
Josephine suddenly gripped Rose''s hand tightly. She said with a tremble, "It''s kinda creepy here."
"Shh!" Rose lowered her voice. "I remember that I had run into that strange, crawling woman here."
Rose pulled her to squat in the bushes, then they moved forward slowly.
Suddenly, a strange voice could be heard. It sounded like broken sobs, reminding one of the
wailings of a small animal when it was left behind by its mother.
The voice was sometimes distant and sometimes close. It was also sometimes loud and sometimes
soft.
Rose and Josephine hugged each other tightly.
The two of them held their breaths, listening to the direction of the voice quietly.
Then, the two of them slowly approached the voice.
In front was the Mushroom Gate. A dark head protruded from the Mushroom Cave, revealing a dirty
face, but it hardly hid the exquisite features of the face.
"Ah!" Rose eximed in shock. "It''s the woman in the photo!"
Josephine quickly covered her mouth.

At this moment, a shadow enveloped them from behind.
Rose and Josephine turned their heads. There was only the light from the sporadic stars in the
pitch-ck night. One could vaguely recognize that the person was Jay.
Josephine trembled with fright. "Brother, why are you here?"
The man approached them step by step, his right hand retracting into his sleeve. When Rose saw
the end of a needle tube from his sleeve, she immediately gathered her concentration and became
vignt.
Rose''s hands grabbed a handful of dirt from the muddy soil. As the man approached her, she
suddenly threw the mud on the man’s face. Then, she used this opportunity to pull Josephine up as
they ran as if their lives depended on it.
"Hurry up."
Josephine waspletely dumbfounded.
The man did not chase after them. In the night, those enchanting eyes glowed with a wicked light.
Rose and Josephine ran out of the Fragrant Vessel Court in one breath. When they were sure the
man had not caught up to them, bothdies slumped onto the ground without a care and panted
heavily.
Rose''s phone suddenly rang.
Seeing the words ''Big Demon King’ shing on the screen, Rose was so shocked that she dropped
the phone to the ground.
Josephine picked the phone up, pulled herself together, and handed it to Rose. "Sister-inw, let''s
see how he''ll put on a show?"
Rose swiped the screen and heard Jay''s anxious voice through the phone, "Where are you?"
Rose said in a tremble, "I''m with Josephine."
"What are you two doing?”
Rose looked at the man''s costume she was wearing
and said, "We’re ying a c-cosy game."
Jay turned into the path leading to Josephine’s residence and was dumbfounded when he saw two
people sitting at the intersection, one of them dressed up as himself.
He walked overzily, putting his hands into his pant pockets. The expression on his face was very
subtle.
When the two women saw Jay, they clung tightly to each other subconsciously.
