Five-Year Old Prophet is Pampered by Ten Brothers-Chapter 256 - Wounds

The teacher on duty nodded. She felt that Ruby Cromwell really knew how to care for herself. She didn’t cry or make a fuss even though someone had spilled soup all over her. If it were any other child, they would have cried and looked for their mothers.

Lauren Torres helped Ruby Cromwell take another bowl of soup and put it at their seats.

As she was also worried that Ruby Cromwell didn’t have any clothes to change, she took out a spare set of clothes from her school bag.

Mr. Hayes stuffed this into her school bag. He said that he was afraid that Lauren Torres would catch a cold if she did not change after sweating. Thus he specially brought her a spare set of clothes. Now it came in handy.

Lauren Torres ran to the girl’s bathroom with a set of clothes printed with pink piglets. She saw that Ruby Cromwell was taking off her jacket and washing it in the sink.

Lauren Torres hurriedly ran to Ruby Cromwell’s side. When Ruby Cromwell heard the footsteps, she seemed to be startled and stepped backward.

“Ruby Cromwell, this is a new set of clothes I brought from home. You can change into it. Don’t catch a cold.”

Ruby Cromwell’s clothes were also a little wet.

She took over the clothes from Lauren Torres, but she seemed to be hiding something.

Lauren Torres felt that it was a little strange. When she handed over her clothes, she noticed that there were some strange wounds on Ruby Cromwell’s arm. They were blue-black.

The wounds were not many but three or four of them. But they were very eye-catching on the child’s delicate skin.

“Ruby, what happened to your hand?”

Lauren Torres took a step forward and wanted to take a closer look at Ruby Cromwell’s hand. However, Ruby Cromwell took a step back and ignored the clothes in the sink.

“I’m fine.”

Ruby Cromwell then ran away.

Back in class, Ruby Cromwell was sitting in the corner the whole time. She crossed and put her hands under the desk as if she didn’t want anyone to see her wounds.

Lauren Torres didn’t say anything, but she asked Ruby Cromwell again during class break. Ruby Cromwell shook her head and said, “It’s nothing. I just accidentally had a bump at home.”

“So you didn’t come to class yesterday because of this?”

Ruby Cromwell nodded.

‘Alright, if this is the case…’ Lauren Torres did not continue asking.

It was normal for children to have bumps though it was very difficult to have a bump on the arms.

After school, Lauren Torres went home with Ben Carson. She still had not figured out how to complete the mission.

Every time, the female ghost would only come out for a short while.

Sigh…

Something was not right.

Lauren Torres suddenly found a blind spot.

Wasn’t the purpose of Mission 4 to find the owner of the bloody handprint? She had already found it. The bloody handprint was done by the female ghost. If that was the case, shouldn’t the mission have already been completed? 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖

In the car on the way back, Lauren Torres pulled out Divine Nine.

“Little Nine, did your system make a mistake? Look, I’ve already found that female ghost. Why haven’t I completed the mission yet?”

[System Divine Nine: It’s impossible. Our system has never made a mistake. Since it says that you haven’t completed the mission, it means that you haven’t completed the mission.]

But…

Was the female ghost yesterday lying?

But there was no need for her to lie and take the blame for this incident.

Lauren Torres was confused.

Forget it. Since that was the case, she would dig deep into this female ghost and find out what exactly had happened to her.

After returning home, Lauren Torres did her homework in the living room for a while. Then, Franklin Torres came back with a piece of news.

The police had already matched the DNA of the bloody handprint. The blood belonged to a girl who had passed away at Thomas Johnson High School 10 years ago.

Lauren Torres’s guess was right. This girl had passed away at Thomas Johnson High Schoo.

“Do you have any more information about her?”

Franklin Torres shook his head.

“There was an incident of data leakage at the police station five years ago. All the information and the backup on the computer were missing. Therefore, all the information about the case before that was gone. There wasn’t even a photo left.”

“I got this information from the hospital’s database.”

Lauren Torres nodded. The photo did not matter. It was not that she had never seen her before.

“Do they still remember how this girl died?”

“The previous batch of police officers had already retired. These police officers were all newly recruited in recent years, so they have no impression of this case.”

“I see.”

The corners of Lauren Torres’s mouth drooped.

It seemed like she still had to personally ask that female ghost.

So, in the wee hours of the morning, Lauren Torres pulled Franklin Torres and Bryce Torres along to ‘revisit the old place’.
