Chapter 54: Lauren Gets an Idea
After returning to the Dream Villa, Lauren finished her dinner and allowed Ben to move around freely.
She closed her eyes and entered the magic library in her spiritual consciousness.
Recently, she had gotten a new book. It was about programming and she was studying hard.
In the library, a fox with a lithe body was running around. Its fur was smooth and had a faint luster. Its eyes were big and it looked extremely smart.
“System Divine Nine, you’ve become a fox this time!” The moment Lauren entered, she saw the System Divine Nine had become a fox.
System Divine Nine intimately rubbed his head against Lauren’s hand.
“Wow, your fur is so smooth and comfortable!”
Lauren liked small animals very much, so she sat down on the ground and started stroking the cute little fox in front of her with all her might.
[System Divine Nine: SInce the Host has completed the mission recently, my cultivation has improved a little, so I can become another animal. It’s a pity, I hoped to be able to fly a little bit longer.]
System Divine Nine was a bird with emerald green feathers previously, but this time he became a fox. In just a few days, his cultivation had increased by one level.
[System Divine Nine: I’ve done some calculations. I’m already 410 years old.]
[System Divine Nine: After 90 more years, I can start grow faster. When that time comes, I might be able to transform into a human. If I can transform into a human, I’ll definitely be a handsome man!]
Lauren replied, “I’d better read a book.”
[System Divine Nine: Oh right, we didn’t gain anything at the amusement park today. Should we continue to wait?]
Lauren said, “Of course, this is the only way. However, I thought of an interesting point. We are not sure if Lily is the only victim of this incident. If there are other children missing, there will definitely be records.”
Just like Yulia, she would definitely think of calling the police if her children were missing.
In the end, regardless of whether the police found the missing children or not, they would definitely have a record of it.
If the other children were like Lily who “lost their way themselves”, then these cases might have been handled by the same group of people.
[System Divine Nine: That makes sense. Since you have an idea, then why are you still reading ‘Introduction to algorithms’ here?]
System Divine Nine paced on the desk. This was the first time he had become a fox. He did not know how to control his tail and had knocked over the things on the desk several times. Lauren rolled her eyes and gave him an annoyed stare.
“Oh, I was wondering if I could hack into the police station’s computer. It would be so convenient.”
[System Divine Nine: …]
[System Divine Nine: It would be great if Franklin could continue to help you. He has a lot of connections. Just ask the police stations across the country to compile statistics. You have just started learning programming. By the time you learn how to do it, the time for the mission would have passed.]
Lauren said, “That makes sense…but I definitely won’t take the initiative to look for President Torres!”
She would never call him brother!
Because of this past incident, Lauren did not sleep well the entire night. At first, she tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. By the time she fell asleep, she kept having dreams.
The dreams were extremely ridiculous.
She became a broom, a broom that had a consciousness. In the dream, she was being swept around by someone. The person who was holding her was none other than Quinn!
At nine in the morning, Lauren was woken up by the alarm clock. When she woke up, she had dark circles under her eyes and a deeper hatred for Quinn.
“How dare you use me to sweep the floor!”
Ben, who came in with breakfast, heard Lauren’s muttering.
“Miss Torres, what did you say? What sweeping? Is the floor dirty?” Ben put down his breakfast and looked around.
“No!” Lauren rubbed her eyes and stretched her body.
The nine o’clock sun was warm, but she was not feeling hot when it shone on her body. Lauren lay on the bed and rolled around twice.
After breakfast was hurriedly settled, the two of them set off for the amusement park. The amusement park opened at 10 o’clock in the morning, so the two of them had to arrive on time.
According to Lauren, “What if that little ghost appears at 10:01?”
Ben was filled with bitterness. 10:01? Were all ghosts so punctual?
This ghost’s working hours were quite punctual, working from 10 to 6. Its standard eight-hour work schedule was much better than Ben’s.
“Miss Torres, how many more days do we have to go?”
Lauren had specially packed a bag of sweets before she left the house. Now, she was opening a green apple-flavored one and savoring it in her mouth.
Sure enough, sweet things can bring a good mood. Lauren felt that most of her anger from when she woke up in the morning had dissipated.
